Elegant Darkness, My Latest Dress!

10/16/2019

Bodyline has stepping up their game lately! I love my pink Lattice Lace dress by Bodyline. Every so often I check the website to see if my size is in stock. For years, I was disappointed.

Not only was the dress re-stocked recently, but it was re-stocked in my size, score! This will be my first single colored lolita dress. Not only that, but this is the only pastel-free dress in lolita my wardrobe! I have some fun plans for this piece.

[ Review ] Tulu Tulu Lolita's Adjustable Petticoats!

9/30/2019

Tulu Tulu Lolita sells lolita fashion goods. They offer a wide range of sizes for their items. In addition to lolita dresses and accessories, they offer an adjustable petticoat! They even offer an adjustable petticoat that is plus-size friendly.

Not only can you change the size of the petticoat poof (amazing, right?), but you can adjust the shape of the petticoat too! I'm serious!

I can't wait to share this review with you!

My Top 3 Lolita Wish List Items

9/25/2019

It's so difficult to choose!

I am no stranger to a quest. Like most participants in lolita fashion I strive to add pieces to my wardrobe that I love. I have folders on my computer and Pinterest that are filled with, possibly hundreds, of dresses, skirts, and other lolita items that I would be over-the-moon to own. Out of all of those pieces, there are three that I am currently most determined to own.

Here are my top 3 lolita wish list items!

A Dream Print Is Here! Review: Kuma Kumya's Marine Island Skirt

8/26/2019

Baby, The Stars Shine Bright is one of my favorite brands. When I learned that their 2018 release Kuma Kumya's Marine Island was plus-size friendly - I was hooked. Not only did the print feature some of my favorite mascots, but it is an underwater theme! I couldn't pass up mermaids.

I had to have something form this release! After weeks of searching, I was lucky to find the skirt!

I cannot wait to share this purchase with you!

The Art of Cute: A Brick Store Museum Exhibit

7/22/2019

What a cute exhibit!

A friend and I went to an exhibit a few towns over that was causing a stir. The Brick Store Museum had an exhibit all about "cute". I could not think of a better chance to wear lolita fashion! I wore my new strawberry ribbon skirt, headbow, and blouse from Glitter Tale. I feel like I was part of the exhibit in this summer outfit!

As someone who loves cute things, I wanted to learn the history of cuteness. I can't wait to share this fun and impromptu experience with you!
