Amino Lolita Challenge: About Me

8/7/2019

1. What is your Amino name?

♡♡♡

My handle on Amino is magicalgirlme. My real name is Callista and Callista Marie. I like both <3

2. How long have you been wearing lolita?

♡♡♡

I have liked the fashion for a long time. I began to wear lolita fashion for special occasions six years ago. I began to wear the style more regularly over the last few years. Now, I wear it each weekend.

3. What is your preferred style?

♡♡♡

My preferred style is Sweet Lolita. I enjoy OTT Sweet, as well as a more classic Sweet Lolita style.

4. Share a lolita related goal!

♡♡♡

I have so many! I would have to say I am most determined to add more jewelry items to my Etsy shop. I really love making lolita-themed pieces, and I'd love to share them with more people.

5. Share a fun lolita fact about yourself!

♡♡♡

In my spare time, I write lolita-inspired fairy tales. I really enjoy writing. There is a pink book for all of the happy fairy tales, and a black book for all of the darker stories. Sometimes I illustrates the scenes I have written as art practice! I would love to physically publish both of these books in the future!

I would love to hear your answers to this challenge!

Stay Frilly,

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!

As I grow within this niche fashion, there are times where I have to branch out. From new brands, to custom pieces, I have learned new skills, and faced some challenges. These are the next obstacles!

"But, will they fit?" Let's See If Brand OTKs Will Fit Me!

5/27/2019

Let's do an experiment!

Printed lolita socks are such a fun accessory! Socks and tights are a great way to change a coordinate. Brand printed lolita socks and tights are especially popular in our niche fashion.

As a plus size lolita, I am always on the lookout for printed socks that will fit. I purchased a new design directly from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright. The question I have is, "will they fit?" Let's see!
