Finally, Angelic Pretty plans to re-release their popular series, Dolly Cat. This charming print features elegant cats in artistic perfection. After waiting for a decade, I cannot wait to own it. My fingers are perpetually crossed that it is made-to-order! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/513486f2-552d-4d7c-9060-abf211af73f5/Copy+of+Dolly+Cat+Coord+2.png Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/87e95cc8-7b02-476f-9424-aef76072f21f/252PO01-030634_LL.jpg Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - The One-Piece This dress is truly a romantic design. It begins with a high collar made from sheer polyester with printed florals. Unlike the jumper skirt, the one-piece features a large, solid bow below the collar with pearl accents and a branded brooch, which can be removed. The sleeves match the material of the collar and feature satin ribbon and bows, followed by a row of lace. There are smaller satin bows along the bodice, framed by matching lace and pearl buttons. The waist features a printed bow with pearl accents. While the border print is the focus, the framed artwork on the bodice and upper section of the skirt complements the artwork beautifully! Finally, two printed optional waist ties create a lovely back bow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/aac0799b-e765-466a-aa81-744831613876/252KS01-070429_sub01_LL.jpg Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - Make it stand out Lastly, the printed socks. The repeated style of the bodice is featured in this design. Since the OTKS are polyester instead of cotton, I’m confident these will be more size inclusive. I’d like to coordinate these with a solid main piece so I can wear them more often. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e072e93d-f9e7-40c0-a9b4-8cc3844ce4a6/252PJ01-020666_LL.jpg Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - The Jumperskirt I adore this dress. The piece begins with two beautiful, printed shoulder straps and stitched pink pearl beads. There are three solid bows across the bodice. The center bow features a branded brooch and pearl beads. Lace is layered across the top of the bodice, along with two satin bows. The waist bow is a solid ribbon, complete with four pink pearl beads. From here, the dress is indistinguishable from the one-piece. Unlike the bows at the front, the removable waist ties are printed with the design. Additionally, the jumperskirt features partial shirring and laces for increased size versatility. My hope is that the design can be easily altered due to this feature, too. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d3bc5849-823e-4722-8ea0-e09b31724d60/angelic_pretty___dolly_cat__pink__by_lolitaprints_collect_deok5q9-pre_short.jpg Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - The Print I love cats, and these darling cat sisters, Carole, Anna, Dorthee, and Tiffany, have some serious style! In addition to being a precious print, there are many fun details for coordinate inspiration. You’ll find ribbons and bows, gems, pearls, makeup, pillows, gifts, perfume, nail polish, roses, polka dots and more! Just imagine it; the gems would be a perfect theme for a Hime coordinate, complete with a tiara or veil and elegant gloves. Or for a Disney-bound Marie look, pink and white accessories, including a hair accessory with cat ears and a choker to resemble a collar, would be a look the Little Lady would be proud of! Each colorway features pastel pink, blue, lavender, white, and gold. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1d01534a-5678-4fa9-9d16-ebbb85e401f0/Dolly+Cat+Coord+2.png Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7c69ae3c-c114-48f2-8d23-0dfc30e15eac/252KC01-080478_LL.jpg Lolita Blog - Angelic Pretty’s Dolly Cat Re-Release - Make it stand out It isn’t often when the matching headbow for a printed release is a solid color. Due to this and its elegant design, it is a favored accessory. The pretty pearl details complement many pieces, and the branded brooch gives a touch of brand flair to your coordinate. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/when-life-happens-how-i-chose-what-to-sell monthly 0.5 2024-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/51592926-d20d-47f3-8bde-d2ee0f380ebf/image.jpg Lolita Blog - What I Chose to Sell When Life Happened - What Happened? A combination of chest pressure, shortness of breath, and a racing heart finally pushed me to see my primary care physician. What I thought was a chest cold was, in fact, a pulmonary embolism. After ER visits and extensive tests, I received my bills, and I am shocked at what wasn’t covered through my insurance. So, I looked in my lolita closet and made some tough decisions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/aceac5d1-2e34-4ff0-b561-f52ee7a15b3b/image+%289%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - What I Chose to Sell When Life Happened - 3. I Thought About My Style As you probably know, I am mainly a Sweet Lolita. I do wear Gothic as well, though infrequently. Of my four dark themed pieces, the brand-new ones were the hardest. Lost Kitten and the Magic Lantern by Metamorphose, Unicorn Séance by Angelic Forest, and a Cat Headdress by Antique Beast. After a few days, I decided that, while I enjoy these pieces, I really stick to Sweet Lolita. For me, a decision to stay within this style made this choice easier. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b3c8a627-1771-4d43-8daa-86449fcb79fa/image+%285%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - What I Chose to Sell When Life Happened - 5. I Let Myself Feel There are pieces that I sold I’d love to get back in the future, but for the most part I’m happier watching the balance on my medical bills decrease. I’m very fortunate to have a partner that I can speak openly with, which helped me through this process. I left myself feel sad and frustrated for a healthy amount of time, and now I’m moving forward happy that I made some financial progress! Final Thoughts While it wasn’t easy, I reduced some bills, made my closet more accessible, made a smaller wardrobe so I can wear items more frequently, and refocused on my personal lolita style. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a5f06179-4a75-455c-845f-13e040deca12/1495705294.jpg Lolita Blog - What I Chose to Sell When Life Happened - 4. I Spent Time with My Items With the wisdom of my therapist and Marie Kondo, I used the KonMari Method and thanked the items I chose to sell. I appreciated the beautiful craftsmanship and design of these pieces. When I was finished, I bagged or boxed them up for their next home. With the items I was indecisive about, I hung them on my closet door and would look at them throughout the day. If I could part with it after some time, then I could list it. If not, I’d put it back in the closet and try again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d6c3fcab-e611-4d95-9333-8dfec2e28aa4/%C2%A9Maison+de+Julietta Lolita Blog - What I Chose to Sell When Life Happened - I Took it One Piece at a Time I’ve been collecting lolita items for over ten years. Like most Lolitas, I take pride and cherish the items in my wardrobe. For me, I knew if I looked at my wardrobe as a whole would be overwhelming. So, I grouped items by their type and arranged them on my bed. I decided that the more simplistic I could be with this process, the better! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3cc89b8c-61aa-4c37-9925-506e0a2b43ea/image+%287%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - What I Chose to Sell When Life Happened - 2. I Chose My Absolute Treasures Once the items were sorted by category, I chose a piece I couldn’t part with. As an example, Milky Planet was my choice for dresses. I compared each dress to Milky Planet. Did I love this piece as much as Milky Planet, a little less than Milky Planet, or something I could pass onto another Lolita? https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/how-i-winterize-my-lolita-wardrobe monthly 0.5 2024-01-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8ef00a9c-8f73-48e7-8c11-ec73d301bee2/Untitled+design+-+2024-01-07T174658.522.png Lolita Blog - Hello, Winter! How I Stay Warm in Lolita - 5. Earmuffs and Hats On average, people lose 10% of their body heat through their head. A hat is a great way to keep your hair dry and yourself warm. Wigs can help keep your heat in, too! If you want something lighter, earmuffs are a comfortable, cute, and great way to keep your ears from freezing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/cb728a7c-a285-47ce-8455-dc656ba16300/Untitled+design+-+2024-01-07T172607.389.png Lolita Blog - Hello, Winter! How I Stay Warm in Lolita - 1. Winter Coats/Jackets Now that I own winter jackets, I can’t imagine my life without them! While you can absolutely wear lolita in the cold without it, I enjoy having a piece that is cute and functional. Not only can you stay warm, but your dress also stays nice and dry. Both name brands and indie brands release lolita coats, and you can find them in the secondhand market as well! In addition to long winter coats, there are short coats, capes, and capelets. You’ll be sure to find one that fits your style! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5c130389-5780-429e-92cb-0eb0e00615e1/Untitled+design+-+2024-01-07T170757.024.png Lolita Blog - Hello, Winter! How I Stay Warm in Lolita - 4. Gloves/Mittens Your fingers will thank you for wearing gloves in the cold! Winter gloves are a bit tricky to find, but with the name brands, indie brands, and secondhand stores, they do exist. Even a knitted pair with imitation fur, leather, or fully imitation fur mittens pairs well with our style. Having trouble finding a pair? Take a pair of normal basic gloves and a pair of wristcuffs, layer them together with the wrist cuffs covering the base of your gloves and, tada! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/43f70bb1-9d7e-4954-8294-508d3f809e18/Untitled+design+-+2024-01-07T170956.436.png Lolita Blog - Hello, Winter! How I Stay Warm in Lolita - 3. Scarves Who doesn’t love a scarf? As a Sweet Lolita especially, there are so many cute scarf options! From fluffy mascots, animal ears, bows with pearls, or fluffy collar designs, you can stay cozy and stylish with this simple accessory. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3f72b02a-9b1c-4230-ae8f-e6deeaed5d90/Untitled+design+-+2024-01-07T172515.473.png Lolita Blog - Hello, Winter! How I Stay Warm in Lolita - 2. Layers Layers are a wonderful way to stay warm. The best part is that you can remove items at any time! Once colder weather begins, I start wearing my heavier boleros, sweaters, sweatshirts. No matter what the meet, layers help me stay comfortable in a warm or cool setting. I love the additional level of cuteness they provide, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d6ae48a1-677e-46cb-919c-b5b3fb5d971b/Untitled+design+-+2024-01-07T170618.194.png Lolita Blog - Hello, Winter!

Happy New Year! 2021 Recap and 2022 Lolita Wishes</a> - I Obtained Some Dream Pieces! I was determined to add a few dream items to my wardrobe in 2021. Specifically, I wanted to add My Sweet Mate Kumya's BABY Anniversary Lillian Skirt by Baby, the Stars Shine Bright and Sugary Carnival by Angelic Pretty, and I did! I now own the skirt in yellow and the dress in sax blue. While my dress is to be altered I've had a lot of fun coordinating my new skirt with my wardrobe. The fact that this piece celebrates Baby's 30th anniversary makes the skirt even more special to me <3 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/eb3f803a-00dc-49a2-b047-825da29b9f73/untitled-design-537_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2021 Recap and 2022 Lolita Wishes</a> - Buy Some Dream Pieces As I get ready to send Sugary Carnival out to be altered, I can't help but be excited to add more dream pieces to my wardrobe! While alterations are $150 for a dress, there are some prints that I would love the opportunity to own and wear. Probably in the spring, I'll prioritize getting Dolly Cat by Angelic Pretty. While I love this print in black, getting the pink colorway would be ideal! I plan to be more discerning as I continue to add to my lolita collection, but we'll see how I do! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/cd170c1f-353d-4ff7-b57f-062838f82c87/untitled-design-538_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2021 Recap and 2022 Lolita Wishes</a> - Upgrade My Studio There may be some fun developments at our apartment, which would allow for some repairs and more freedom to decorate. My "studio" is a spare bedroom. Our cats aren't allowed in this room since my ball-jointed dolls, Sailor Moon collectibles, and film and photography are stored there. Due to this, I can go as over the top as I'd like! Moving forward, the upgraded studio space will make my videos and coordinate photos even more enjoyable. I plan to upgrade my equipment, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/da85ee76-f54c-49b6-bde4-94a8c6d6dd29/untitled-design-535_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2021 Recap and 2022 Lolita Wishes</a> - Apply to More Conventions While many of the slots went to 2020 artists, I applied and was accepted to a few conventions! The majority of the gatherings were online, but I sold in person at a con in December called Nor'Geekster. My friend April and I had a great time meeting new people, catch-up with others, and spending time together! I really loved how my display turned out for this event. I have so many fun ideas for my future artist alley displays and products! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b8d87243-7d77-4446-81c9-14ad7dc3366d/untitled-design-532_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2021 Recap and 2022 Lolita Wishes</a> - I tried some new things! I've wanted a chocolate release for quite some time, but getting the desired result took longer than I guessed. After much trial and error, the first part of my Chocolate Series is something I am very proud of! I'm excited to release more. I have, slowly, been taking online courses for illustration. Currently, I am working on character design. In the future, I would like to design some pins, art prints, and more to my Etsy shop! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecombloga-milky-planet-re-release-pinch-me-i-must-be-dreaminga-milky-planet-re-release-pinch-me-i-must-be-dreaminga monthly 0.5 2023-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/758aed8f-fb8b-4bdf-a9af-21f9ad8c0342/milky-banner1_orig.png Lolita Blog - A Milky-Planet Re-Release?

Our community includes people with different backgrounds, ages, races, sizes, sex, gender identities, abilities, and more. While it is one thing to reassure people that anyone can wear this style, it is even better to show them! When we use tags that people are looking for on our fashion content (some of mine being #plussizelolita, #blacklolita, #brownlolita), the stronger our belief will be and reach those who need to hear it. As an inclusive group, our actions need to match our words!

It takes courage to wear and share our alternative fashion. The last thing someone may want is to feel is that they are the only Lolita out there like them. While we are individuals, our preferred clothing makes us a part of a larger group. While we may have to hide this passion from our family and outside friends, our lolita community should be the one place we don't have to conform to what society thinks we should wear.

I always look for tips on how to wear my natural hair, what cuts will fit best for my plus-size body, and what makeup colors will flatter my complexion. Instagram has been immensely helpful in this regard! As much as I love the Gothic & Lolita Bible fashion magazines, I gain much more from other Lolitas that share my attributes. Fellow Instagram Lolitas have helped me discover new brands, find new and comfortable clothes, accessorize my short natural hair, and given me the courage to try new makeup styles and colors. A lot of time, and money, has been saved thanks to visible representation!

International Lolita Day is the perfect excuse to doll yourself up and wear the fashion you love. I usually use this day as an excuse to wear an over-the-top coordinate. This year, I wanted to do something different. Instead of wearing an elaborate look, I challenged myself to style a look with three rules. The first was to use one item I never wear, successfully use false eyelashes, and use my natural hair. Yes, you heard that right! I cannot wait to share my experience, and challenge, with you! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bj6s9dvx1fifiqadjm3rkk1kf3c1z1 monthly 0.5 2023-10-24 https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecomblogwhat-i-learned-from-a-lost-packagewhat-i-learned-from-a-lost-packagea monthly 0.5 2023-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bb45fb45-d6d3-48ff-953a-1c39b5d90550/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-peachpuff-makeup-photo-youtube-thumbnail-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - What I Learned from a Lost Package - Make it stand out Where Are You, Cats and Cherry Cake? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/23596238-1d47-44ec-add4-176c3d9093b0/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-peachpuff-makeup-photo-youtube-thumbnail-9_orig.png Lolita Blog - What I Learned from a Lost Package - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/efe0f948-35d7-475d-ba84-b8cf205f6e3d/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-peachpuff-makeup-photo-youtube-thumbnail-5_orig.png Lolita Blog - What I Learned from a Lost Package - When I saw a redeliver slip, I was very surprised. My mail carrier always knocks on my door when my car is in the driveway so I can take my package directly. I signed the slip, and it was taken by USPS the next day, with the approval to have the item redelivered. The package status was updated to delivered, though my package has never been located. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1b0db083-a911-4cd5-92f4-f6662d41a177/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-peachpuff-makeup-photo-youtube-thumbnail-6_orig.png Lolita Blog - What I Learned from a Lost Package - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/hcze9z8dtr6ox79ytt4kwcet5sliiy monthly 0.5 2023-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2649fad6-8bc4-4c7b-8ce6-9f197950d89c/my-coffee-time_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Redo a Coordinate for a Main Lolita Piece (Day 1) - Items Used: My Coffee Time Skirt ♡ Lady Sloth Camellia Bolero ♡ Glitter Tale Sweet Princess Blouse ♡ Glitter Tale Headbow ♡ BELLSI Hair Clip ♡ Heart Chocolate Truffle Bow Clip by SweetJujuShop Creamy Chocolate Macaron Necklace ♡ Q Pot Bracelet ♡ Moon Bunny Ribbon Ring ♡ Jane Marple Chocolate Piece Ring ♡ Angelic Pretty Royal Chocolate Bag ♡ Angelic Pretty Going Out Ribbon OTK Socks♡ Angelic Pretty Shoes s530 ♡ Bodyline https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecomblogfrom-comfy-casual-to-sweet-lolita-with-my-friend-aprilfrom-comfy-casual-to-sweet-lolita-with-my-friend-aprila monthly 0.5 2023-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692662700621-RXHZRK7EZWTTJXFTPF6H/april-sc1.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692662700657-0PNY69XOSHPQL895CS7B/untitled-design-516.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692662704543-FUT8VJC48RBNVN7QKOZ4/untitled-design-517.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692662704723-ET8BNQTJLVHCH94J2TRW/untitled-design-518.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/41ef47a4-8d51-43c9-8d35-ea6ea304045b/april-blog1_orig.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> - Coordinate Rundown: Dress and Socks ♡ Angelic Pretty Hair Clips ♡ Cat Tea Party and Sweet Juju Shop Necklace, Heart Ring ♡ magicalgirlme Bow Ring ♡ Sweet Dolly House Bracelet ♡ Swimmer Blouse + Apron ♡ Taobao Bag ♡ Baby, the Stars Shine Bright Shoes ♡ Cotton Candy Feet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/75b4d651-aafc-49b1-a5f6-60723df6d096/april-casual-to-lolita-fashion_orig.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> - April is no stranger to kawaii. As a previous teacher in Japan and a huge fan of cuteness in general, April is a wonderful person to share adorable things with! From jewelry concepts to a shared appreciation of Sweet Lolita prints, I could not wait to see how this release would look! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/11dd343d-d371-45b5-b535-314e671bc771/itfp_orig.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> - My dress form displayed the blouse April would be wearing and the Sugar Carnival set. I thought this was a great way to let April see the details of the dress and blouse in particular. Once April was dressed in the blouse, JSK, matching socks, and petticoat, we moved on to hair and makeup. April had brought a wig cap, but we found her natural hair looked super cute with the coordinate. Completely prepared, April had a curling iron, her makeup kit, and blue glasses! The ColourPop Sailor Moon Palette April used was perfect for the soft pinks and yellows in the print. Using the curling iron, April carefully but quickly curled her hair. Seeing her natural hair in this release made me nostalgic for the older editions of the Gothic & Lolita Bible, specifically the streetsnaps section. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a289950d-659c-487d-9e28-b2c47c4bfdf3/april-2_orig.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7e2a2fb0-82a9-43c8-ba88-74f42daeeefb/bunny-april_orig.png Lolita Blog - From Comfy Casual to Sweet Lolita with My Friend April</a> - Next, we tried hair accessories! We discovered the headbows weren't very comfortable for her, so we moved on to headdresses. While these looked super cute, we both loved how the bow hair clips looked with April's natural hair. Not only is this a classic look for Sweet Lolita, but April said she used to wear hair clips often in high school and college so it was something she was comfortable with. Talk about a win-win! As for bags, April was immediately drawn to the iconic heart bag by Baby. Jewelry is my favorite part of a lolita coordinate! From the polka-dots on the socks and dress and the hearts in the print and the bag, we had our two themes. April tried on a few pieces and settled on two rings, a bracelet, and a necklace that matched the themes perfectly! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecomblogreview-sweetie-cakepop-lolita-dress-set-by-ruby-princesssweetie-cakepop-lolita-dress-set-by-ruby-princessa monthly 0.5 2023-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fcb38c5f-6cab-44ee-a9fe-7c8c1923237d/imageonline-co-lightenimage-4_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Sweetie Cakepop Lolita Dress Set by Ruby Princess - Make it stand out I cannot get over how vibrant this print is! Each aspect of this art is beyond precious. There are rainbows, ribbons, cotton candy, marshmallow bunnies, pixie sticks, cake pops, and tons of frosting! Ruby Princess shared a post back in April with closer views of the original fabric, which included glitter. I received an updated swatch with the different colorways and it looks like the glitter didn't make it into the soft release. The dress is still absolutely stunning without it, though! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/cd586eac-6e47-4ae6-8bcb-09ea1fa9be85/onnoble-sports-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Sweetie Cakepop Lolita Dress Set by Ruby Princess - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/cdf3fa6f-039a-4fe0-a352-e2df9e9b7114/copy-of-unnamed-design_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Sweetie Cakepop Lolita Dress Set by Ruby Princess - On the bodice, there are lovely lace and brass heart buttons. The apron is attached to the dress via a pearl button. This makes it a breeze to attach and detach the apron as desired and so it stays in place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b47e64d8-a512-49cb-801a-9bfcb9f5db18/k1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Sweetie Cakepop Lolita Dress Set by Ruby Princess Final Thoughts Ruby Princess' brand core beliefs include being an Eco-friendly brand with high-quality construction and I can honestly say they met them.

While this is an optional aspect, it does help to get a garment on as it brings together the two sides of a dress together before you zip. I struggled with the zipper when the dress was on, but my wife helped me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/99060cb0-1fa7-46cf-982c-d700e47b75c3/ogss_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Sweetie Cakepop Lolita Dress Set by Ruby Princess The design of this dress is beyond adorable!

You can watch me do so here! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e041e1f2-a845-4965-bbfc-7c842dae7834/blog4_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/i-turned-cute-key-chains-into-necklaces-for-lolita-fashion">I Turned Cute Key Chains into Necklaces for Lolita Fashion</a> - Finished Design The star beads I picked looked too cute together while separated by the glass pearl beads. I like the balance of the larger star beads with the amazing and large pastel charm! I added a little star charm at the end of the charm to help me locate the end and to continue the star theme. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bd0cefaa-18f0-43a9-9fe1-73a45b3b09f5/blog1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/i-turned-cute-key-chains-into-necklaces-for-lolita-fashion">I Turned Cute Key Chains into Necklaces for Lolita Fashion</a> - Finished Design I added a little heart charm between the bow bead and the bow from the charm to break it up a bit. The bow was too cute not to keep! The white pearls were a good choice, too. I can't wait to wear it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9a24136c-ca41-4ab0-9ce3-05d2ff00a4cd/untitled-design-472_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/i-turned-cute-key-chains-into-necklaces-for-lolita-fashion">I Turned Cute Key Chains into Necklaces for Lolita Fashion</a> There are so many fun charms on this key chain! While they aren't double-sided, there are plenty of details that if the necklace flips it will still be beautiful. I planned to choose just a few to use. Elements to Note: colors include pink, blue, white, and gold the heart and tag charm are large pearls there are many little details https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/036d88bf-10c3-4a65-9380-1fd5a56bb909/untitled-design-471_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/i-turned-cute-key-chains-into-necklaces-for-lolita-fashion">I Turned Cute Key Chains into Necklaces for Lolita Fashion</a> This double-sided charm is so cute!

Elements to Note: main colors are light pink, pink, and white the charm has multiple bows Merengue has both a sparkle and a heart in her eye and either one would be a great option for the accent beads https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/606ebf0e-c5d5-4eef-9e30-e64734fde04f/blog3_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/i-turned-cute-key-chains-into-necklaces-for-lolita-fashion">I Turned Cute Key Chains into Necklaces for Lolita Fashion</a> - Finished Desgin Unlike the first necklace, I didn't add any additional beads. The pearls were the perfect detail on their own. The larger chain size was perfect for the Eat Me heart! Since the smaller chain is used at the top, it naturally leads your eyes to the statement pieces. The golden heart at the top is a lovely little detail! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecomblogreview-tops-by-chocolate-bunny-store-kawaii-fashionreviewnbsptops-by-chocolate-bunny-store-kawaii-fashiona monthly 0.5 2023-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692698189942-4MEII31STY38USPMX0E6/aaa_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692736575474-6RIZM9W1C7HPKR705RBQ/untitled-design-393_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692698197399-8OIRM805UDUOHU334H6S/untitled-design-434_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1692698197565-JV67SUCM9EM3QZ88C1R3/untitled-design-435_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9b78f30c-6903-4734-b789-124ad800f7a8/untitled-design-441_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - While the cotton is thinner and requires a light bra, it is soft and durable. Just like the cutsews, the blouse is very comfortable to wear. The buttons are pretty pearls and fasten easily. The blouse fits so well that I don't need to worry about a gap around the buttons which is a huge relief! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/93080596-7003-4fd8-bd6f-0f617cc2ef14/untitled-design-396_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/96ae5e90-2e41-464a-8694-f79798208bd3/untitled-design-445_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - Quality and Price 10 / 10 The quality of each article is fantastic! I love the overall designs, the quality of the cotton and lace, and the high-quality construction. Each top is comfortable and flattering. I will wear these daily pieces often! Chocolate Bunny Store's items are extremely affordable. I am beyond ecstatic with the items I ordered and plan to order more in the future! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fb187dc7-9748-407c-ba18-d536fd3e5e5e/untitled-design-442_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - Once again, the sleeves are very comfortable! The store gives you the option to have removable sleeves. Since this was my first order, I didn't select that option, but I will in the future! I can't stress enough how important comfy essentials are. There is even partial shirring in the back, too! I am very impressed with the quality of this piece. The fabric is breathable and comfortable. The construction of the garment is excellent and I expect I can wear it daily without any issues! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5bcf6654-0e4a-4a36-b1f7-901fb971a8d5/untitled-design-443_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - The design ratio is lovely!

I added an item to my order after the fact and it wasn't an issue at all. The items arrived in a secure plastic envelope safely from Mexico to the USA. The website states that ordered items will take 3-5 weeks to create. My items took a bit longer, but I did add another item later on.

I find that most tops I own have elastic that stretches but is uncomfortable after a while. As a plus-size Lolita, I can honestly say that isn't the case here! The elastic used on the sleeves are very comfortable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/56518460-5f14-4552-86ca-f25c7b6f0eba/untitled-design-439_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/23267b76-0553-4769-9640-c2a1e6ddc21f/onnoble-sports-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/115c3bdb-5e6d-4a79-a7ee-302f8231693e/oldschool_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a0ce8266-ad4e-4a77-b0e9-451c92475a14/untitled-design-394_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tops by Chocolate Bunny Store, Kawaii Fashion - I can move freely in this piece, and everything still stays in place!

I am always on the lookout for cute blouses and cutsews for my lolita and kawaii fashion wardrobe. After seeing Chocolate Bunny Store tagged by some of my favorite plus-size Lolitas, I was excited to try the brand's products for myself! I'll share my opinions of the Christie Cutsew and the Old School Blouse in this video and blog post. Let's get started! *Note: Chocolate Bunny Store included a 10% discount for my subscribers with code MAGICAL, wow!! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/knp89o2tugfk3lisuo85l8k43sqp55 monthly 0.5 2023-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a03cdc35-6ff0-4d4f-b654-b939acd7e907/pink-with-dots-girly-makeup-youtube-thumbnail-2_orig.png Lolita Blog - When it isn’t Meant to Be - Make it stand out My excitement for my parcel couldn't be matched! I felt so fortunate to have snagged this incredible set. As I unboxed the stunning Wonder Toy OP in pink I was glad I had waited to record the moment. After five long years, it was mine! Once trying the piece on, however, I came to a terrible realization: https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecomblogreview-3-tier-frill-dress-set-by-metamorphose-temps-de-fillereview-3-tier-frill-dress-set-bynbsp-metamorphose-temps-de-fillea monthly 0.5 2023-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fd7479eb-a6f3-4f94-acf8-3baf5ef35d50/copy-of-unnamed-design-4_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> At the back, you'll find partial shirring and waist ties. These waist ties are extra long, which was a surprise. The buttons allow you to remove the waist ties, which is something I love to see. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3ad23092-6fa0-4606-a97c-6a9ca5f5f5b0/untitled-design-377.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c7f2a65f-8343-4bbb-8692-18fb7bc8dc8d/copy-of-tutorial-4_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - Make it stand out My first Metamorphose piece is here! Metamorphose temps de fille has released some "plus" and "plus plus" sized options recently. With so many gorgeous designs, I couldn't help but get a few of them! I pre-ordered the 3 Tier Frill Dress and Headband Headdress through Kuroshiro Kawaii. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f583efd9-6893-4383-860f-f258541e4ae5/untitled-design-355.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - 10 / 10 This hair accessory is absolutely gorgeous! The quality of the materials used is fantastic! Not only is everything evenly stitched, but I'm also not worried about anything coming off. The headband is stretchy and wide. I won't have to worry about it sliding off or worried that my wig is too thick for it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c2a759bd-9a28-4c53-8dc8-028d150f7c03/untitled-design-378.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - 10 / 10 The overall design, quality of the product, and high skill used to make this dress are beyond my expectations! If I had any reservations about participating in future Metamorphose releases, this dress has encouraged me to do so!

I am completely captivated by the striking contrast of the rich red cotton and bright white lace details. This color combination, frills, and rose lace remind me of Baby's Elizabeth OP. This iconic Sweet Lolita design from 2004, and featured in Kamikaze Girls, is one of my favorites! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/66446581-1e4b-44f4-8e68-97f58231fa05/untitled-design-351_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - The headdress headband looks just like the picture only the red is brighter, at least for my monitor settings. The main cotton fabric is heavier than I expected, but it is very soft. Everything is well attached and is perfectly stitched. Since the headdress is on a headband, I am not worried it will slide off. Not only is it wide, but it also is flexible. This means I can wear it with thicker wigs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/60e2ef26-ef1a-4b17-8c38-f5eb0edb1732/untitled-design-352_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - Make it stand out Stock Image https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7ba4a9eb-2158-4f5d-8cfb-edfa7e565985/untitled-design-361.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - Make it stand out My Photo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7aa8ab85-f0be-4637-b0df-0b033727f0c0/untitled-design-376.png Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d6e16dec-f3f0-4694-868e-767ce5810253/tumblr-paqnjgthwi1s0s3nuo1-1280_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: 3 Tier Frill Dress Set by&nbsp; Metamorphose temps de fille</a> - Unlike the piece by Baby, this one was available in multiple sizes!

Was this an oversight, or was Meta leaving extra material if you wanted to make adjustable straps?

The fact that even the bodice and shoulder straps were adjusted still blows me away. I'm sure every dress alteration is different, but I am satisfied with the results for the price of $173.

For the rest of this example, let's call this imaginary company Kawaii Co. Like most subscription boxes, Kawaii Co would have a company website. There would be useful information about the company, how the subscription works, and an example of what came in a previous box. Maybe you could sign up for a newsletter! I like to imagine that the Kawaii Co company would be more specific about the customer's preferences, much like StitchFix. This could be more than a cool box. It would be styling by veteran Lolitas! The subscriber would be sent products in their price range and style. The receiver would keep the pieces they like to purchase. Any undesired items would be sent back. Easy, right? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/beb03318-7ae2-4e41-bab6-ad022bd5c97b/magicalgirlme-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - A Lolita Fashion Subscription Box? - Let's Be Honest... This service would be pretty cool! I would sign up for it. I am always on the lookout for lolita fashion essentials, as well as accessories. It would be great to see a mix of brands, like name brands and independent brands, represented in the box! A range of pricing would allow more people to participate. This could be something a secondhand shop or the Lolita Collective may be able to do! What do you think about a lolita fashion subscription box? Would you try it?

Rating: 10 / 10 The design of this cutsew is adorable! There is a great range of sizing for this piece and it is super comfortable, too. With great construction, this top is going to be a staple in my wardrobe for a while. Also, can we talk about how versatile this top is? I've worn it with a dress and skirts already! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/81917d07-b60b-4bea-a5f0-fa6afb87a9b8/front-20210315-201551.png Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - Quality: 10/10 All three items I ordered were extremely well made! The design of the petticoat and cutsews are both functional and adorable. For tops, these cutsews are super soft and flattering. I love the mesh details especially. The petticoat has a lot of volume, and the optional short version is perfect for brand pieces. The band and cord allow for easy adjusting and the petticoat stays put. No matter what your size, this petticoat is nice and full! I highly recommend this new Canadian company! I look forward to buying more of their designs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e59c3ad0-5aab-4ade-8655-7b3d56c51955/untitled-design-230_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - Everything about this cutsew is super comfortable! The cutsew is lightweight and cozy, thanks to the Jersey material. While I have wanted a cutsew for some time, it has been a challenge to find one in my size. I was about to order one from Maxicimam, but Cream and Sugar's release came just in time! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/592b6a6d-5b4e-43d3-9876-a804282953d6/dscn7530_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - At the bottom, the row of ruffles also has the little white hearts! Again, this detail just adds to the overall cuteness. The ruffle looks especially good when worn over an item because the hearts pop! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7df7440b-b546-4aa4-86e1-449f2801f8b8/untitled-design-235_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - Make it stand out Cream and Sugar Lolita stock image (left) and My customer photo (right) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4c436e8b-0901-47bc-b3e4-71da7499c97e/untitled-design-233_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - The dress form I own is a US size 6, but even so, you can see the overall design of the cutsew. On me, the cutsew falls perfectly. I didn't want something form-fitting for a casual top, so this is perfect! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6d5958c5-a634-4970-83d5-cc866b283915/dscn7538_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - Under the tulle is a layer of netting. The petticoat is lined, so you don't need to worry about it rubbing against you. The tulle is very soft but sturdy. With proper storage, I can see this petti lasting a while! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3da93cb1-95eb-4920-b125-eaf3d2d8fd50/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-untitled-design-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5562ce76-719b-46b4-ac08-cd3f35ecb9bb/untitled-design-227_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - The mesh ruffle is so cute! Since it is mesh, I don't have to worry about needing to iron it, unlike lace, whew. The mesh is very soft and well constructed. A darling satin bow sits at the center of the shirt. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5c95f547-7a92-43f6-a79c-be957290c1bd/untitled-design-248_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Cream and Sugar Lolita Cutsews and Petticoat - If you are looking for a full petticoat, I highly recommend this one! I usually put a tulle petticoat over my hoop one to get extra volume, but this petticoat can do it on its own! Just a note: this petticoat is so full that you won't be able to wear the cutsew over it, haha! Unless you have a long torso ;) Rating: 10 / 10 This petticoat is HUGE! The short length is perfect for my shorter brand pieces. The materials used and the construction of this piece are first-rate. Even when I wear this petticoat for an extended time, the band doesn't slip and the cord keeps my petticoat where I want it. I've owned many petticoats, but this is by far the best.

Lolita fashion was, well, lolita! I would watch Kamikaze Girls frequently and devour "current" Gothic and Lolita Bibles. Even as the fashion evolved and new trends occurred, the charm of the original style never left my mind.

On the front of the dress, you can see the brown ribbon, dark brown lace, a small waist bow, and lovely soft border lace. The print is a different hue of brown so that it stands out and doesn't blend with the brown accents. The cut of the dress is very flattering. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e9ce581b-d32f-4431-bb8c-421d1ec309da/honey7_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Honey Cake, Angelic Pretty's Iconic Pancake Print - The jumperskirt features partial shirring in the back to accommodate more sizes.

It truly looks like I dyed my hair and let it grow out. Like the Märchen wig, the fibers are extremely soft to the touch. None of the netting is visible when worn. I did have some trouble getting the pigtails to stay, but once they did the wig looked incredible! This wig also has two combs to ensure your wig doesn't slip. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ce0f02c2-616e-438c-9d95-a6c028caa6e9/wig-2_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Dream Holic Wigs for Lolita Fashion - The blonde wig was super soft, even before I got it out of the net! The soft ringlets have a beautiful style and bounce to them. I was very happy to see that, while these wigs are thinner than many cosplay wigs, I did not see any bare spots that showed the wig netting. Since the bangs are styled, I didn't have to cut them!

Tried Something New! While I tried quite a few things this year, the proudest would have to be trying a new lolita style! I wore my first Gothic Lolita coordinate. While I am a Sweet Lolita for sure, it was fun to experiment and wear another style. I felt very elegant in the style and love that I let myself try it out. Now that I wear lolita fashion more often, it's nice to know I can grow in this fashion and occasionally express my dark side! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/24df0a1c-44f4-4e92-870a-c15d3619e2ca/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-untitled-design_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2020 Recap and 2021 Lolita Wishes - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/81836205-e721-491d-bb25-fcd7b1ea5163/untitled-design-153_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2020 Recap and 2021 Lolita Wishes - 3.

In addition to attending, It will be so nice to meet new people and connect with my friends. I'd love vend at more conventions, too. It's nice to support other artists in the artist alley and see people react to my designs in real time! I usually only apply to my location cons, but Maine is close to numerous states, like Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and more! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bbe14803-e527-4ef2-b6b9-0dcbcc114170/untitled-design-154_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2020 Recap and 2021 Lolita Wishes - 1. Obtain a Dream Piece Every year my wish list seems to get larger! While my heart is open to many different lolita pieces, there are of course my top items. These are the lolita pieces I will not hesitate to purchase! This year, I am determined to add at least one of these to my closet. But which one should I choose?! If I had to pick just one, it would be My Sweet Mate Kumya's BABY Anniversary Lillian Skirt by Baby, the Stars Shine Bright! I am very excited that Angelic Pretty will be re-releasing Sugary Carnival this year, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/38cfd496-eb99-428e-a926-291acd97288d/untitled-design-155_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2020 Recap and 2021 Lolita Wishes - 2. Try Something New I love making lolita content and jewelry designs, but did you know that I have other lolita-adjacent likes as well? I'd like to schedule some time and practice drawing. It would be really special to make some enamel pins or prints available in my shop! It would be nice to finish my lolita fairy tales book series and illustrate it, too! Lastly, I'd love to make some designs of mine into a reality. I would love to make pieces, like my drippy-chocolate apron, for my own wardrobe. Who knows, maybe I'll sell some in the shop as well! We'll have to see. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2ed44ecf-712e-471d-8974-af721be8488e/untitled-design-152_orig.png Lolita Blog - Happy New Year! 2020 Recap and 2021 Lolita Wishes - 2. Connected with Other Content Creators Just because we were in quarantine didn't mean we couldn't connect right? With so many fun tags and a huge social media presence due to COVID-19 this past year, I could collab with many new Lolitas or creators that I admire! It was such a pleasure to expand my lolita fashion contacts and subscribe to some new channels. Many of these tags were a fun challenge to do, and I enjoyed watching the other participants' videos! I want to do more collabs and tags with other creators this year, too! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/xuruu4kvslhhn3q8xyp727ofrrfw1d monthly 0.5 2023-09-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5574c52e-9952-4208-a428-9331c51ee8b8/sweet_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - Make it stand out Sweet Dolly House is an adorable accessory shop located on Etsy.

I could not resist it at $38. I had to take photos of this piece from many angles. After all, there are so many precious details! The gingerbread house base displays realistic cookie texture and shades. All the candies, cookies, sprinkles, and frosting look realistic as well! The front of the necklace depicts three cookie windows, a chocolate bar front door, two candy window boxes, round pastel sprinkles, and a lovely macaron. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f942fe6e-dbd0-4397-a723-937811354db1/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%2832%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - The lovely ice cream cone is decorated, even on the back. From this angle, you can see the realistic backs of the cookies. A few pastel cookie pieces, candy, and rhinestones can be seen among frosting. All the details are realistic and secure. This design is so much fun! I love all of the sweet elements. Rating: 10 / 10 This necklace is charming. I love the level of detail that has gone into each element. The pieces have been crafted with a high level of care and the piece is very sturdy. The necklace is lightweight, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2c40c440-cc24-492d-b10f-863b4ccd063d/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%2826%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - The sides of the necklace feature drizzled pink frosting, pastel sprinkles, pearly gems, a cookie and pastel peppermints. The small, scalloped icing decoration can be seen throughout the necklace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7fe8abab-f29b-4c95-b18f-2e97fbd9ccbe/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%2830%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - The back of the necklace features a large heart cookie window, piped frosted tops, pastel pearls, and a large plastic pink bow. The piped and even pink frosting continues to frame the house rooftop. I love that, no matter at what angle, this necklace is a fantastic accessory. Every detail is secured with glaze. The glass and crystal beads are lovely. They a great addition to the gingerbread necklace charm. I believe that I will extend the necklace longer than it is, but that is only a personal preference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d5926f94-a78c-444b-b5ea-688f15937c3c/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%2831%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - This piece was an add-on! Before my items shipped, this sweet little ice cream design went on sale for $38! Valeria was kind enough to make a special listing for me so that I could add this piece to my current order. As you can see, there is a lot to this necklace! A plastic ice cream cone acts as the base for the piece. The top of the cone base features faux chocolate drizzle with pastel sprinkles. A piped line of decorative vanilla frosting supports a dollop of strawberry and, perhaps cotton candy, ice cream. Two decorated heart cookies act as a frame. To the right of the charm is a hungry little cookie bear. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8dc2a0cc-6b2b-4765-af18-779d9ae2f16c/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%2823%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - This adorable bear brooch is even cuter in-person. I absolutely love the details of this brooch. The marshmallow inspired clay makes the bear look so light and sweet. No small part is out of place. You can easily see the small pieces that give this brooch so much charm. I personally love the small tongue! The clay is stiff, so it easily will hold its shape. A lovely bow is the only item that is made from a denser plastic. The item has been sealed in glaze to add some additional protection. A simple pin back clasp helps to easily secure the item in place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/440de154-f88f-4ad0-b182-d67e3fb25202/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%2824%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - I love sweets. This little $9 addition looks great paired with a food-themed lolita coordinate. This ring is perfect, as it looks like the sweet treat it claims to be! The base of the cookie even has air pockets and different shades of brown, like a real cookie! There is an even pink layer of faux frosting, and then lovely white piped details. The materials that have been used are secure, so you do not need to worry. It's amazing how realistic this little bow ring is! The ring is 100% adjustable, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2bac0586-71d4-4420-a37a-d430e56019c1/eraser_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Adorable Jewelry by Sweet Dolly House - Overall Rating: Communication: 10 / 10 When I reached out about adding another item, Valeria was extremely prompt! Not only was I able to add the item to my order, but Valeria even made a custom listing! That way, I did not have to pay for additional shipping. I also appreciated that the sale price for the added item was honored, hooray! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/uoncr3nd232y3ehs7afeh7ba8tew8q monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/39677a82-bfde-422e-967b-1087bc28f337/2838129.png Lolita Blog - Lolita Goals for 2015 and 2016 - 2015 Goals Wardrobe Expansion -- Last year my first goal was to obtain additional petticoats, bloomers, jumperskirts, skirts, and blouses. I can happily say that I met this goal! I successfully added a new jumperskirt, blouse, petticoat and bloomers to my wardrobe, along with a few accessory additions. Success! Learn new Skills -- Last year my second goal was to learn how to sew. Not only did I learn how to use my sewing machine, but I even made lolita themed items for my doll Hitomi! I cannot wait to expand and improve my skills. Success! Stay Regular -- This last goal for 2015 was centered around my blog and lolita store being updated. Unfortunately, I fell short on this goal. I did not keep my blog updated per month, nor did I make any changes or updates to my hobby business. Between graduation and getting a job, things were a bit rocky. I hope to remedy this goal in 2016.

I felt very elegant in this coord, though the headpiece seemed to draw some double-takes. The bonnet, while stunning, always slips off my head.

Help Build Their Coordinate Time to build the coordinate! I try to build a coordinate from only a few sources, but every case is different. It's important to ensure everything you send is in stock at the time. I create a coordinate photo, explain what everything is, and send it to the newbie lolita for review. That way, they can tell me what to keep and I start the process again. Eventually, we have a complete lolita coord selected! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/dd70b43e-b6b5-49de-bf65-9cdf2055bb26/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-untitled-design-3_orig.png Lolita Blog - How I Help a Lolita-In-Training Pick Their First Coordinate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2c38b737-f3c2-4cdc-8d78-ae1810e81b9c/copy-of-copy-of-idol-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - How I Help a Lolita-In-Training Pick Their First Coordinate - When I built this coordinate, I included a full-sleeve blouse and the requested cat ears. Something I liked about this Souffle Song dress is that it comes with the optional obi and jacket for around $75. These items will help give the future Lolita more styling options! All of these items are from Taobao, include a petticoat and bloomers, and within the Lolita-in-training's budget. Talk about a success! I was shocked that she loved this coordinate and approved it right away! I can't wait for her first lolita pieces to arrive! Putting on your first lolita coordinate is such an important moment for a lolita. I feel very fortunate to be a small part of that experience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d4ea8f25-feee-44f0-b4a5-91942fa35c43/copy-of-idol-17_orig.png Lolita Blog - How I Help a Lolita-In-Training Pick Their First Coordinate - Ok, now that you have the necessary details, it's time for the fun part! Find possible main pieces that fit your lolita-in-training's measurements, budget, and time-frame. I have found the best way to do this is to send each dress in a coord and all colorways! Canva is one of many great tools for this. This is main piece #7 that I submitted to my recent lolita-in-training, created in Canva. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3183ba8f-6ced-44f3-b5ce-972b8559dd61/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-untitled-design-5_orig.png Lolita Blog - How I Help a Lolita-In-Training Pick Their First Coordinate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/670f0d6b-efa7-4787-af8f-519247970237/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-untitled-design-4_orig.png Lolita Blog - How I Help a Lolita-In-Training Pick Their First Coordinate - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/op7zbr7n2blzeiqq7bjaf5e00c3w7t monthly 0.5 2023-10-01 https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/uki1hd2agh7x6l9r25qgp46y04qiey monthly 0.5 2023-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c7ea6d19-ed98-43de-bc92-6bcad87b60c2/Maison-de-Julietta-Harajuku-Lolita-007+%281%29.jpg Lolita Blog - "You're Only a Lolita If..." Common Concerns for Newbies - 4. "If You Own a Closet Full of It" You're a Lolita whether you have one piece or twenty!

Enjoy the dresses you own but keep your heart open to pieces you would like to maybe own in the future! ©Mansion de Jullietta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8fd53623-36b4-4f98-8fae-ac1c3d918786/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-untitled-design-2_orig.png Lolita Blog - "You're Only a Lolita If..."

Common Concerns for Newbies - 2. "You Wear It Everyday" No - you do not need to wear lolita fashion daily to be a Lolita. Between jobs and school, many people in this fashion can only enjoy lolita in their downtime. There are other factors at play, too. Are you able to comfortably wear lolita for long periods? Would you wear lolita even when you aren't feeling up to it? Have plans that require you to be active? Can you clean your lolita clothes easily? These are just some of the factors that come into play when you wear lolita daily. I wear lolita in my downtime. Between work, access only to a laundromat, and health reasons, there are days when I cannot wear the fashion I love. Does that make me any less of a Lolita? Not at all! ©Mansion de Jullietta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ce014af5-a44f-4d3a-b953-aef5095fde60/image+%287%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - "You're Only a Lolita If..." Common Concerns for Newbies - 1. "You Only Wear Name-Brands" You are a Lolita if you own indie brands, handmade pieces, or name-brands. The manufacturer of your lolita pieces is unimportant. While lolita fashion does have requirements for it to be, in fact, lolita, the requirement of your pieces being name-brands is not one of them! Whether your item is by Angelic Pretty or a lovely independent brand, you should love what you wear regardless! ©Mansion de Jullietta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f703678f-4371-4745-9c38-44ac94e5d8df/image.jpeg Lolita Blog - "You're Only a Lolita If..." Common Concerns for Newbies - 5. "You Have a Set Lolita Style" Of course not! There are plenty Lolitas that wear multiple styles. While having a favorite style is extremely common, it can be fun to try something new! This is a fashion hobby that is all about having fun and expressing yourself. Feeling a bit dark and mysterious one day, and bubbly and happy the next? Let the fashion help showcase that side of yourself!

Capes, Jackets and Coats A wool cape, jacket, or coat is a wonderful, if not obvious way, to keep you toasty in lolita! From brand names to lolita indie brands, these lolita essentials are easy to find. Which option would work best for where you live? I love to use a cape for fall and mild winter days, while a winter coat is perfect for more frigid weather. You can pair a more simplistic cape, jacket, or coat, with a faux fur collar for extra sweetness! ©Angelic Pretty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3790b98a-e5c2-4882-a689-257c99b51722/untitled-design-41_orig.png Lolita Blog - Baby, It's Cold Outside: Staying Warm in Lolita Fashion - 5. Boots As a Sweet Lolita, I completely understand that open shoes, like Tea Parties, are a common staple. This style of shoe lets us show off more of our cute socks or tights. The open design, however, can backfire in cooler weather. Boots help to keep your feet and ankles warm. The best part? You don't have to sacrifice any sweetness! Ideally, I'd like to own both a pair of boots with faux fur lining for winter and an unlined pair for autumn. Generic boots found on Amazon, eBay, and Taobao https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/799c3e73-ca18-4fd3-8422-246b7689be7e/untitled-design-38_orig.png Lolita Blog - Baby, It's Cold Outside: Staying Warm in Lolita Fashion - 1. Sweater Cutsews Pair a warm cutsew with your JSK or skirt! A sweater, with its close weave and long sleeves, will help you from losing body heat. A cutsew helps add warmth to your coord without the bulk of a traditional sweater. Many lolita brands, including indie brands, have similar shirts for colder temperatures. Many of the warmer cutsews are turtlenecks, which is even better! No matter wool or fleece, a fall or winter cutsew is a perfect way to stay toasty! ©Cotton Lace Knit Bottoming Shirt by Fluff Mollie https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8d8980d2-bd21-4f6c-8c20-870ff9395b59/untitled-design_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Baby, It's Cold Outside: Staying Warm in Lolita Fashion - 4. Tights and OTKs Use lolita legwear to your advantage! Printed tights are a great way to cover your legs and add some pop to your coordinate. Many brands, especially Taobao brands, release autumn or winter tights for the colder months. Need some extra warmth? Put a pair or leggings or tights with some OTKs! Printed tights with some solid socks, or solid tights with printed socks, will give you added protection against the cold. Adding boot warmers is another cute way to layer your legwear, too! ©Dessert Cart in Amusement Park Stockings by The Dolls Daydream https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bb803825-97a3-42cb-92df-52fb27b613f3/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-writing-101-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Baby, It's Cold Outside: Staying Warm in Lolita Fashion - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fbff39b7-b894-4c6d-8374-f2d79402afdd/untitled-design-40_orig.png Lolita Blog - Baby, It's Cold Outside: Staying Warm in Lolita Fashion - 2. Boleros & Cardigans Multiple layers are a wonderful way to stay warm! A bolero-style sweater or cardigan can be worn over your blouse, cutsew, jumperskirt, and even over a one-piece! This additional layer is also perfect for uncertain temperatures. I love to wear a bolero or cardigan as the seasons change. If it gets too warm, I can easily remove the extra layer. Not only is this an option to keep you warm, but it's also a great way to add additional cuteness to your look! ©Frill Ribbon Knit Cardigan by Angelic Pretty https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/4zx2n00o7az4gbjh3ef9kds6yzvfrk monthly 0.5 2023-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fa19609c-901d-42c6-8b76-9c3ebbee1707/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-writing-101-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Taobao Haul and Try On - Make it stand out This haul has been a long time coming, but I am super excited to share it with you!

They look just like the ones for humans, but are the perfect size for a ball-jointed doll. The elastic makes it easy to slip on and off. The pink ribbon at the top is a lovely touch! This head bow is adorable! The lace trim matches the wrist cuffs perfectly. The printed material is a nice polyester and very light. No need for ribbons, because this bow has an easy to place hair clip! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9186ca0c-050f-4886-86fb-e83a70ace2ca/dscn3022_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Happy Birthday, Hitomi: A Sweet Lolita Set by PetiteBonita - The blouse has a zipper at the back to get Hitomi in, or out, of it easily. I love the lace along the bodice, and the ruffled collar as well. I'd love to pair this blouse with a skirt to show the gingham off. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4f9f1e3b-9065-466a-9b9d-a4aec1c032a9/front-20200724-205005_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Happy Birthday, Hitomi: A Sweet Lolita Set by PetiteBonita - Shipping & Quality : 1 0/10 My items shipped quickly!

The impacts can be felt through every aspect of our activities. Face coverings have been recommended by the CDC to encourage us to practice social distancing and keep our germs to ourselves. Wearing a face mask does not mean you have to sacrifice style! Here are my tips on how to pick a face mask for your coordinates. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b17abcdd-35b3-423a-bfc8-c7dfa336827b/untitled-design-171_orig.png Lolita Blog - Staying Cute with Face Masks - 1. Embrace Color Are you finding it hard to match your mask to a perfect shade? Why not use another pigment in your pallet! Many printed pieces use different colors in their artwork. Don't be afraid to pull out the understated colors in your wardrobe, such as yellow, mint, brown, grey, and others! This cute lavender mask, with small pink roses, compliments my Squirrel Party dress perfectly! You could end up with a mask that matches more than just one of your lolita pieces. What a great excuse to wear more coordinates! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/060ec1b1-5748-4838-945f-b010f87cc2ce/untitled-design-170_orig.png Lolita Blog - Staying Cute with Face Masks - 3. Try Different Fits There are so many different fits of face masks, even for COVID-19. While it isn't recommended that you expose your nose or mouth, you can play with how much the rest of your face is covered! Maybe you have some large round glasses you'd like to wear for a coord. Opting for a smaller mask may help to showcase them more. Looking for a more dramatic feel? How about a mask that features obvious filters, or covers more of your neck and face frame? You never know, you may keep a few masks to use in the future for lolita looks in addition to now! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/eskbzfctm8l9ofoyy3nlomvh2qqzi8 monthly 0.5 2023-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/feed1a46-fe55-4d30-9e8a-6647bdbf5244/front-20200503-141454-removebg-preview-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Why Wigs?

Solid Fabric A complimentary solid fabric can be used the add additional measurements to a lolita piece, even printed ones. As with the first two options, the extra fabric is added to the sides of the piece. While the solid fabric blends right in, the solid material doesn't blend as well with the printed material. That's not to say that this method doesn't work, though, if done well! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9d9b38a4-0255-466a-b2a6-d44cbf2e050c/2.png Lolita Blog - Altering Lolita Name Brands - 2. Printed Tote Bags Name brands often release printed tote bags with their release. Angelic Pretty is especially known for this. The printed tote bag's pattern can be matched to your dress or skirt and, through alterations, give you extra precious measurements. I have come across popular pieces, such as Sugary Carnival and Dolly Cat, that have used this modification. This can save your waist ties, too! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/184e388a-1eb4-4b87-88ee-6f73ca2e30c9/1.png Lolita Blog - Altering Lolita Name Brands - 1. Waist Ties For printed and solid pieces, waist ties are an option for alterations! Waist ties are extra fabric that matches the dress or skirt. If the fabric is enough, it can be used to add additional measurements to the dress. I have seen this method used to add more centimeters to the bust and the waist of brand pieces! If you still want waist ties, the tailor can use solid fabric to create some new ones! **Note: This is how my Magic Princess dress was altered https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/i5yvxv0ui7fos2wjitn9krnajxfnqb monthly 0.5 2023-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696178965888-FJWV2G92VR4AAP1KK47Z/fde18a57-d15a-54d6-a95d-b92d804ec681-removebg-preview.jpg Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696178965531-3AR23145SB13UZNZUW70/a-removebg-preview.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696178965176-JJ02DSF9PJRRTLJJRIBU/8a86b056-9d57-5c4a-84d7-8ca8133c9ed3-removebg-preview.jpg Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9f7bd634-d0c8-4881-b8de-84b50f4036e7/bc56fc34-92b3-5f83-a77c-61259af22f31-removebg-preview.jpg Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696179173308-USZF67UXKS1P0FL9X05N/23d4c6ac-8963-5b3e-bf2e-ecb1af3703d6-removebg-preview.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696179174238-TTTNCMLR1C13UM8UB97V/e53b2ad0-8341-597f-aafe-5a9668846196-removebg-preview-2.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696179173255-2F9DNAGAIODXGCLKMK2D/5ed818b8-cd9d-5cbe-ac48-2f7d7ffec1c5-removebg-preview-1.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e02d8420-27b0-4130-a671-56839fdfc73a/copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-copy-of-writing-101-2_orig.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696178876163-4K7LHB8IJNQ0IT714XH8/135751b2-741d-5426-b6a7-69a4101d422b.jpeg Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696178879400-1KLDP0FY2NJE5Z0VNMLS/untitled-design-94_2.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/603654e7-c949-439b-969a-716385852f71/b2777bba-102c-51f8-af7f-1ae9873ed39e_1.png Lolita Blog - What's Your Favorite Lolita Print Series? - This AP series has it all!

The artwork is so darling and is a great fit for my Rapunzel-themed order. The colors are more muted due to the cardboard material, but it is just as charming. The notebook is double-sided with a different design on either side! I appreciate that the notebook is made from cardboard. Since the notebook is made of a material, it's easy to use in any position!

Discover New Places When a friend of mine mentioned that she wanted to actively visit more local cafes, I couldn't help but agree! There is so much of my state that I have not seen. From state parks to cafes and hidden gem antique shops, my goal is to experience more this year! Many of these surroundings would make for lovely lolita coordinate shots, too!

Along the metal hoop, you will see a slit where the two plastic pieces meet (see photo one). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696119653827-RI917UWNSLVEKB7II656/20190928-153504_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Tulu Tulu Lolita's Adjustable Petticoats! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696119653899-QSOC9ERRCUDI35SNFXCL/petticoat1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Tulu Tulu Lolita's Adjustable Petticoats! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/076d7084-2de1-4a6b-8b13-2e0be673dc19/150701_1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Tulu Tulu Lolita's Adjustable Petticoats! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/32cdd809-d828-44c5-8111-95490d999482/p2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Tulu Tulu Lolita's Adjustable Petticoats! - Take the two plastic pieces in your hands.

This introduction explained the difference between Normative Cute, Applied Cute, and Meta Cute. Who knew? These definitions helpful later! "Normative Cute illustrates the science and nature of cute and describes why it is so much a part of human (and animal) nature. Applied Cute sheds light on how cute aesthetics are employed in design, architecture and fashion. Meta Cute or “beyond” cute explores how cute, combined with other aesthetics, can create meaningful art that can be ironic, disturbing, political, joyous humorous and provocative." - Illustration Institute https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/c61x5vfzgi4sw3g1mthiigdsy0e553 monthly 0.5 2023-09-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bd1edc67-9010-4e4b-a077-369b660e8626/wow-so-fluffy_orig.png Lolita Blog - Exposing My Kittens to Lolita Fashion, a Reflection - The Basics My lolita closet is located in our living room. This is where our kittens spend all of their time when we are home. They were curious about the closet, to be sure. I made sure to keep my energy up as a gathered my coordinate items.

It was almost as if the kittens were thinking, "Mom can get fluffy, too!" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/751a5fc1-0071-4caf-980a-c07056b4c5b6/wow-so-fluffy-3_orig.png Lolita Blog - Exposing My Kittens to Lolita Fashion, a Reflection - Well Deserved Playtime Once my lolita coordinate was finished, it was time to reward the kittens for their great behavior. I took out their favorite toys and had a well-deserved playtime. The kittens' balls and cat wand were great toys to use. This was especially true while dresses in a full coordinate! After the kittens finished their play, they settled down on the living room carpet. With their energy stores drained, it was time to move onto the most exciting part of the fashion exposure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/92b0306d-48f6-488d-8a23-84651daa4d66/wow-so-fluffy-2_orig.png Lolita Blog - Exposing My Kittens to Lolita Fashion, a Reflection - Getting Pretty Both kittens escorted me into our bathroom. There, I did my traditional lolita makeup routine. Two pairs of grey eyes followed my hands as I took out my strange tubes and bottles and applied liquids and powders to my features. When I began to add accessories, it was the clear winning form of entertainment. Each placement of a ring, ribbon, necklace, and hair item was met with complete engagement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f8d56b4f-aa3c-4510-af1a-737a39021265/wow-so-fluffy-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Exposing My Kittens to Lolita Fashion, a Reflection - A Focus Piece and Wig The printed dress caused some interest. I'm not sure if it was the collage of bears, balloons and other cute items that was entertaining, or if it was how I put on the dress. The act of dressing alone would be fun enough to watch! When I put on my wig, all bets were off. Suddenly, I had disappeared, and a stranger was there. After some coaxing, the kittens realized it was me. Still, they couldn’t understand why I was wearing this strange fur. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/945f8a19-29c7-4891-b081-337168735a37/wow-so-fluffy-4_orig.png Lolita Blog - Exposing My Kittens to Lolita Fashion, a Reflection - Snuggles and Cuddles Cats are now a part of my home. It is impossible for them not to be a part of the fashion, too. When the kittens were ready for cuddles, I took the opportunity to do some more hands-on education. Before the kittens could knead, I gently put my hands over their paws to stop their claws. Soon, the kittens lost interest in my attire after a minute or to. It was just another normal occurrence of being held. Who knows, maybe this indifference will let me dress up my boys in the near future! Pastel ribbons, anyone? Do you have pets?

The sleeves are a bit short, but you really cannot tell when it is worn. The blouse features pearl buttons along the length of the blouse and at the cuffs. There is also a hidden snap on the inside fold of the cuffs. This make it handy to remove the blouse and the cuffs keeps their shape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/16a9f441-229f-4db8-9113-2cc6ee8a1a89/111_7_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Glitter Tale for a Plus-Size Lolita - The skirt features two beautiful waist ties.

These marks are made when the measurements are done. The marks usually come out with a few washes. Rating: 9 / 10 The overall design of the blouse is charming and classic. It looks great when worn out or tucked in. This way, there are multiple coordinate options. I love how flattering the blouse is when worn!

With it's peter pan collar and a simple line it is the perfect blouse for any Sweet or Classic Lolita coordinate. I wanted something that had these classic elements to accompany my strawberry skirt and headbow. The conservative sweetness will allow me to make accessories, such as my signature necklace from BB and B Deco, really pop. The material used is really soft, yet durable. The cotton fabric has a very creamy texture. Even after a day out, the blouse maintained its shape. Everything, from the design to the stitching, is lovely. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/30a69b10-7272-44ec-bfb6-16ed38798ba3/e_6_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Glitter Tale for a Plus-Size Lolita - And now, for the main piece!

I was in my second year of college. Now that I was out in the world, I was able to start exploring my interest in fashion. I happened to stumble across this street fashion, and I was drawn to it automatically. Since I had very limited experience with fashion, I wanted to make sure that this was a style that I would like to invest in the long term. To see if the style was for me, I incorporated lolita aspects into my everyday wardrobe. Some common accessories were knee socks, a headdress, a parasol, Demonia brand shoes, and blouses. Due to this blend of an obscure fashion, I received some surprising statements from potential partners. "What are you wearing?" Ah, yes. The over-the-top, "What are you wearing?" question. Even after multiple thorough explanations, this potential soulmate is horrified that you wear something as basic as OTKs in public. In my experience this partner may be interested in dating you, but not without stipulations. They often request is that you wear this style behind closed doors. They may avoid public events when you are dressed in lolita. To say this person is embarrassed by your choice of fashion is an understatement. Be wary of sideways glances or a look of pity from this potential mate! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8ac1e535-1c12-49d5-8897-270d2c4968ff/image+%283%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Love: My Experience and What I've Learned - What did I do in this situation? This "relationship" lasted only a few days. I am modest when it comes to public displays of affection. This is something that I communicated quite clearly, along with why I wore this alternative style. It was nice to have someone open and interested in my chosen and adaptive fashion style - at first. My trial guy could not seem to keep his hands to himself when I wore lolita-type items. I felt smothered. It was obvious that the guy was into the clothes more than me. After many statements about how much he loved what I wore for his personal benefit, I ended the dating. I wear this style for me! "Why would you wear that?!" Yes, you read correctly. I have had many potential partners tell me not to wear the lolita fashion style. The reasons given are some that you may be familiar with. "It's childish," "The style isn't flattering," "What will people think," "Don't waste your money on that," and other such remarks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8b728950-1e25-4133-8d80-dfc81c5f9308/image+%282%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Love: My Experience and What I've Learned - My Soulmate My fiancée has known me when my interest in lolita fashion began. Even when we were just friends, she was very supportive of whatever hobbies that brought me enjoyment. My fiancée loves my enthusiasm for lolita fashion. While it is something that she does not have an interest in, my fiancée supports my interests. She listens to my stories about fashion and helps me dress as well. My favorite aspect of my fiancée is that she encourages me to grow and change. If I decided that lolita fashion was no longer a good fit for me, my fiancée would support my decision 100%. What I look for in a partner: ♡ Supports your interests ♡ Open minded ♡ Supports your growth ♡ Empowers you ♡ Listens to you https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c1f4f33c-26af-4ee3-91b6-d9ce2fec705c/1495705294.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Love: My Experience and What I've Learned - "Better than Victoria Secret." This person is a little too into your fashion, and it's not because they have an interest in the fashion or want to support your hobby. This person sees lolita fashion as a kink or fetish. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this outlook if the belief is consensual. If you are not interested in your fashion being associated with adult activities, it may be an obstacle in this relationship. The understanding that you dress this way for your own enjoyment is lost in this potential mate's eyes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/464717cb-5c6f-4551-88e2-7ae070e6dac8/image+%288%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Love: My Experience and What I've Learned - Nothing makes me angrier than being told that I cannot do something completely harmless. Who the heck did this group of people think they were by telling me, a grown woman, what I could and could not wear? After all, lolita fashion is about self-expression. Since these individuals could not handle the simple truth that fashion makes me happy and creative, I moved onto better prospects. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4746cccf-b7d6-479a-9bdf-3e4769ff0dc3/image+%287%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Love: My Experience and What I've Learned - I am getting married this month!

In the middle, we find perfectly piped faux vanilla frosting. The top of the macaron has a delicious looking dollop of vanilla frosting. Placed atop their are various beads, rhinestones, a gold ribbon charm, and a marshmallow. There is a pink ribbon with the name of the shop in bright gold lettering. The macaron sits atop a very pretty white lace doily. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/dec2f18b-64eb-465b-a8b3-cd6d9eec4401/bb8_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Spontaneous BB and B Deco Jewelry Purchase - The strawberry charm is super sweet!

As with my previous BB and B Deco order, the necklace arrived in a velvet branded bag. My only complaint would be that the surface of the necklace contained a lot of dust. While this is normal with any handmade jewelry, it was more than I have previously encountered. Pro tip: dust can be removed with a microfiber cloth and a damp towel. Nevertheless, I couldn't help but audibly gasp when I removed the necklace from the protected bag. What a statement piece! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696032447517-OMCWEC0OV5I1A15XVHLA/bb6_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Spontaneous BB and B Deco Jewelry Purchase https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696032447412-DBBB5R16AAYDNP6YQWNG/bb5_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Spontaneous BB and B Deco Jewelry Purchase https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1696032448324-ZQZ10GKSCSEIC1XUIFCR/bb7_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Spontaneous BB and B Deco Jewelry Purchase https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ba5f7e10-7520-4a5b-8eb7-757ad2d34241/done_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Spontaneous BB and B Deco Jewelry Purchase - Make it stand out It isn't a secret that I love BB and B Deco.

Even at the asking price, this charm is worth it. I love that the cookie features such a lovely design. It's also fun that the charm is double-sided.

The simple version only has one row of ruffles, but it is perfect for my needs! As with the other items, this underskirt has been well constructed. The ruffles are very soft to the touch. Due to this, the piece is very comfortable to wear even when it contacts the skin. The underskirt's length was able to be customized. How fantastic! This item looks great with my shorter dresses. The waistband is a bit loose due to some minimal weight loss. Due to this, I will need to make the elastic in the waistband shorter. Even with my minimal sewing skills, this adjustment will be easy! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695773072692-2ZFSKCOUO0QA57SY44U5/ahcxevmi-jpg-large_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695773072723-H9KFFYVRMH2Y59IFSSSF/ljjpfyiu-jpg-large_5_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695773073739-C5PFOAUSTNJ3ISSS4TLI/loeyl2va-jpg-large_3_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0e0bc0a1-c90c-4c07-84a8-638a64d8671e/wtmd_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet - Make it stand out Lady Sloth is a lolita fashion brand located in Poland.

This release is one I had to have. The amazing aspect of this print is that there was a Gothic and Sweet Lolita print version released. The sweet version features lighthearted elements, such as dolls reading and dancing. The darker version features broken dolls and similar dark themes. It was difficult to choose which print to select! I chose the Sweet Lolita print version in lavender. The lavender was a great choice! Not only did it allow the print to stand out, but there is a great range of possible coordinate color options. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5aa4d53b-e844-412e-970b-15a15175af36/3ccdcess-jpg-large_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet - The design of this dress is stunning! I am very impressed by how the custom measurements came out. The dress is very flattering when worn! One of my favorite aspects of this dress is the great use of many printed elements. In addition to the intricate border print, there is a lovely diamond pattern presented on the piece. It's an aspect of the design that adds to the unique nature of this dress. The top of the dress features a golden locket design with gem embellishments. I like the doll that is featured here. This elegant feature is carried at the border print too, with the golden frames. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695773179615-2QVB1J2M81QSJ3E660W4/dfarb6ut-jpg-large_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695773179583-FN34UPM412JXEIUZU2UC/ezn0lj0i-jpg-large_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695773180468-R7286KE5X8YINAFD8Z36/i3ezesgn-jpg-large_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Welcome To My Dollhouse Jumperskirt and Bonnet https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/chronic-illness-and-lolita-fashion-part-2 monthly 0.5 2023-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/dbf77c68-74e9-4338-8f77-09d0993739ff/pexels-kaboompics-com-6374.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - 1. Know Your Limitations Before you investigate the requirements of the meet up, it is important to know your limitations. As much as you love lolita fashion, you will not be happy after you push yourself beyond its limits. When it comes to the meet ups I attend, and which ones I skip, a few factors come into play: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c881794b-41ef-4450-a1c1-ec9952eee6e5/duong-chung-6FIQLVpGtmQ-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - What time of the day is the lolita event? How long will the event physically last? How long will it take to get to the meet-up and to drive back? What time of the day is the lolita event? Time is a very important factor when it comes to chronic illness and lolita meet-ups. If you are like me, there can be a specific time of the day where my illness is less severe. When are you the most vulnerable? Would you be more comfortable at an event in the early afternoon, or later in the evening? This evaluation may help you to reduce the impact of your illness, particularly for events. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/dd93bc0d-bc3d-4ec3-ab9c-732d812cf99e/yang-yu-1LQYUE-ZwIo-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - When you have an illness, the act of getting dressed can be a challenge. An additional challenge that Lolitas may face is that of lolita meet ups. These events are a great way to connect with other fans of this fashion style! Meet ups can be an additional challenge. After all, you often need to be in the fashion for a long period of time at these events. Here are my tips on how to wear and enjoy lolita fashion at fashion meets despite your illness! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c751307c-bd50-436c-b770-26c9fe01407a/19716186741_91135fe2f3_k.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - Events with lots of movement, such as a tour or shopping, can be very fun but tiring. As stated before, you can always do what you can and bow out when you need to. It is important to know if there will be a lot of travel involved so that you can plan accordingly. Wear your most sensible shoes for walks. If you have a long drive, maybe you don't need that extra petticoat and your full bonnet. If you require mobility and balance aids, be sure to bring them with you to the event! These will help you get around. If you do not need the device right away, you can always keep it in the car for later. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3acca5b9-c821-4810-b7c2-cf47dbdb6b85/christmas_xmas_table_setting_love_lovely_family_evening-722502+%281%29.png Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - 2. What does the meet-up entail What is the agenda for this gathering? A high tea will present different considerations than a meet and shop event, for example. Many times, the organizer of the event will leave all the details about the meet online. If you have any questions, connect with the lolita who is running the meet. A few common concerns are listed below. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/065a32ba-94a8-4ae5-9e3b-09a040c9c7c1/oscar-helgstrand-guyTcnpRkaw-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - For a lolita that has any mobility issues, it is important to know how accessible the event location is. If the meet is at a theater or another lolita's home, how accessible is it for you? Many businesses are accessible, or they have the means to be. Older locations, however, may have some limitations. In these cases, the stairs may be the only way to enter the space. It is important for you to remember your limitations. If you can handle a few flights of stairs for example but no more, keep that in mind. As always, reach out to the host of the event. Additionally, be sure to connect with the location directly with your inquiries. In my experience, the staff at these places are understand your concerns. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ccc9d303-c75c-4751-b016-668075a3457d/florencia-rosenfeld-1Gv_4RcljOE-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - If the event requires refreshments, check for an online menu. When you find some items that could work for you, call the restaurant or cafe to make sure the items fit your particular allergy considerations. If there aren't any options for you, bring your own snacks! I’ve heard that some Lolitas have pack a boxed lunch. Be sure to connect with the restaurant or cafe if outside food is allowed. If not, eat before or after you meet up with the other lolitas. For events where you can bring items to share, make sure you bring something you like and can eat! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fb20598a-8e64-4aca-b25e-0f0021f1ed9d/pexels-lisa-fotios-1024359.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - Many lolita gatherings require you to be seated for most of the event. This event could be a musical performance, play, or movie. If being seated for an extended period of time to be difficult, be sure to select the seat on the end of the row! This way, you can come and leave the event when needed with minimal disturbance to the other patrons at the event. Once outside, you can stretch, use the restroom, or attend to other concerns. Of course, if this means that you will miss much of the event, perhaps it should be skipped. After all, there will be more fun meets with your lolita community! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/536f57f2-1639-4469-bcb4-cea590923ade/pexels-leah-kelley-952590.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 2) - Inside events can cause concerns such as crowds and layouts. When you enter, ask a staff member where the restrooms are. Even if you do not have to use the facilities yet, is useful to know. This is useful in case you need to use the restroom. It also provides as a place to, well, rest from crowds. Indoor event spaces temperature may vary. Layers can help to regulate your body temperature. A simple bolero can save you from the cold or be taken of easily! This tip is also helpful in outside spaces as well. If you are sensitive to sunlight, be sure to bring a parasol to protect your skin. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bno0mxo66felr65kmxb4bd5nr142zf monthly 0.5 2023-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/de5ed6ad-e5a3-4242-bddd-1dc1bf7ddf30/image+%287%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Level Start! -- 2019 Edition - It is that time of the year again! 2018 ended so quickly.

Expand My Wardrobe I now have a comfortable number of dresses in my wardrobe. Rather than add more main pieces to my collection this year, I want to celebrate the pieces that I already own. From accessories to jewelry, I plan to purchase items that will compliment my current dresses. These items may include shoes, socks, bags boleros, blouses, and jewelry. Let's see if I can resist the temptation to purchase another dress! 2. Experiment with Makeup I tend to do very natural makeup. Aside from some foundation, blush, mascara and the occasional application of eyeshadow, that's about the extent of my makeup. On Halloween however, I got a taste of a more theatrical makeup style. The new year gives me a great excuse to experiment with false eyelashes, eyeliner, body glitter, eyeshadow, rhinestones, lipstick, highlights, contour. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3e5a0a16-bd99-4166-bb41-39822b646dbc/1_baby_big.jpg Lolita Blog - New Year's Resolutions and 2018 Highlights - I'm bring a goal back from the previous year! While I did do a much better job of coordinate photos in 2018, they were still few and far between. Between lolita meets, videos, and weekend excuses I have had a lot of opportunities for lolita photos! Unfortunately, not all of the occasions have photos. This year, I intend to take more photographs of full lolita coordinates, planned coordinates, wardrobe pieces, new arrivals, lolita makeup. Who doesn't love lolita photos? I will post the images here on my blog, of course! If you'd like to see more of my lolita-related pictures, follow me on Instagram and Facebook so you don't miss them! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/434bb9cc-0674-4c45-b445-a00e3a8bb594/Untitled+design+%2895%29.png Lolita Blog - New Year's Resolutions and 2018 Highlights - 2018 Highlights PortCon I had a fantastic Portcon experience! There was my first convention lolita tea party, co-hosting the lolita 101 panel, photo shoot sessions with friends and coordinate explanations with videographers. I was so much fun to be with my friends and make new connections. I can't wait for the next one. Cirque du Geek This local convention was a blast! It was my first time attending, but it will not be my last! I was fortunate enough to have been selected for the artist alley. In addition to vending, I hosted a ball-jointed doll panel with my friend Vanessa! Between selling my handmade items and the presentation, I was able to connect with so many interesting people. I'm excited to do even more here next year! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/msj53wqyb0nq5yr0t6oo1k952fgwwx monthly 0.5 2023-09-24 https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/winter-wonderland-lolita-fashion-mini-haul monthly 0.5 2023-09-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1432bb53-2c43-4277-a807-f20a189d23e0/Square+%2819%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - Happy holidays! Recently, I made a purchase from the Chinese marketplace known as Taobao. Like most purchases from Taobao, the original proposed shopping list is always larger than the final purchase. Once the items I wanted were confirmed, I purchased two pairs of gloves, a bear head accessory and a pair of shoes. I needed to add a few essential items. As with past orders, I made my purchase through TaobaoRing. They have now re-branded as 42Agent. I like this shopping service because it is easy to use, the staff understand English well and the commission fee is low. 42Agent even lowers their low fee for special events, nice! Here are the lolita items I added to my wardrobe! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fa0ed4bc-12b5-4821-993c-ee2cc43aa8f4/For.Blogs+%288%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - When I opened the shoes, I was dismayed to see that the buckles on the front of the bow are missing pearl beads and one of the outer golden frame is tarnishing. It was difficult to see from the proof photos, but they did arrive to the shopping service this way. Nothing had come loose in the shipment. Thankfully, I can fix the missing pearls myself. Unfortunately, I cannot do anything about the tarnished gold frame. If anyone has any suggestions, I would absolutely love to hear them! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6eb6a840-9262-469d-b20f-b2808f56f83a/For.Blogs+%285%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - I have wanted a pair a sheer lolita gloves for quite some time. Once I bought my Crystal Guardians: Fairy Princess Haenuli dress, I had an excuse to get them. Now that the gloves are here, I believe that they would be a great addition to my Welcome to my Dollhouse jumperskirt that is on the way, too. The material isn't soft, but the gloves are far from scratchy. I believe that the material will hold up well and this pair will not need to be replaced any time soon. The satin bows on the gloves are a lovely touch. The gloves are well constructed, and the bows are secure. I cannot wait to wear these! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/70c8953d-c699-4699-9673-a01b1a843300/For.Blogs+%289%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - As far as the construction of the shoes, they are very nice! They did smell strongly due to the glue at first, but it dissipated quickly once the shoes were able to breathe. The material is a shiny PU leather. I like that the leather has a polished look. It is evident that the shoes have been glued together, instead of being stitched. My other shoes are similar, so this isn't a huge downside for the price range. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3b59fb3b-b9d6-421f-8a05-d8844b047334/For.Blogs+%281%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - The details of these gloves are precious! Between the folded ribbons to the intricate lace, the design is fantastic. I did notice that the heart gems are two different color pinks, but it is barely noticeable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ede562c0-ae9c-49d9-b64a-8142eca59616/For.Blogs+%282%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - These winter gloves are beautiful. I am in love with the entire design! The contrast of the dark pink suede with the light pink velvet looks lovely. It also allows for more coordination opportunities. All of the material, from the suede to the velvet and lace, is very soft. I really like how the base of the gloves look like a wrist cuff. To add some additional elegance to these accessories, the designers added a chain of glass pearls. With the small heart-shaped gem, these gloves do make a statement! The stitching used to create these gloves is flawless! There isn't a thread out of place. All of the decorative elements are very secure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e0f48bf4-eb51-469a-b867-eaf8d0eebb9f/For.Blogs+%286%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - The fingers are a bit too long, and I have long fingers! This is rather strange that the base of the gloves is average or small, yet the fingers are rather exaggerated. You can see the extra material in the tips. It just seems a bit odd. Plan to see if I can make adjustments to the tips to remove the extra fabric. Rating: 4.5/5 These gloves are well worth the price. They are well constructed and the design makes the gloves a nice addition to a lolita coordinate. My only complaint would be the length allowed for the digits. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6da4a595-f42e-4c71-ae3b-25e275de1e6e/dscn8003_7_orig-removebg-preview.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - I discovered that the right-hand glove has embroidery! There are two heart details, one on the thumb and one on the index finger. I believe this may mean that the gloves have touchscreen capability ! As beautiful as these gloves are, I would not recommend them if you wider hands. Even with my smaller hands, it was a struggle to get the gloves on the first time. Once on, the gloves are warm enough for a mild winter day in New England. I look forward to wearing them! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5c181cae-28e7-4ac9-ac67-4101e5197570/For.Blogs+%287%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - This was my most anticipated piece in my order! Between more meets, videos and outings, my lolita shoes have gotten more use. Don't get me know, I absolutely love it! I needed some new shoes to help add more footwear options to my lolita wardrobe and retire one of my older pairs. Similarly to the sheer gloves, I purchased these shoes with two particular dresses in mind. This is my first time ordering from the Taobao shoe shop An*tai*na. I was very excited to see these shoes in person. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/446c9875-4fc2-4d51-bd66-2da267f8f8d1/For.Blogs+%284%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - My only complaint with this item, is the blue pen marks. These must be where the person who made the item cut out the pink plush inner ear. Thankfully, these marks aren't noticeable when the headband is worn. For the price of the item though, this mistake is one that can be easily overlooked. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0ececf29-f446-4c48-8761-6d77e759d887/For.Blogs+%2810%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - The size is extremely comfortable. I have wide feet, so I usually order a size 9 instead of a size 8.5 US. The shoes look great when they are worn and the imperfect charms are not noticeable. Rating: 4 / 5 Overall, I am satisfied with my shoes. The shoes look very nice when worn and they are comfortable. Plus, they were reasonable. I am disappointed about the care that was given to the featured detail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bca3b54c-8b5a-4965-a088-8eb2945cca18/For.Blogs+%283%29.png Lolita Blog - Winter Wonderland Lolita Fashion Mini Haul - This is the second item that I purchased from the Taobao shop Red Maria. I was very pleased to have found a cute new bear accessory! With my new pink Lockshop wig on the way, I needed to purchase some hair accessories that would stand out a bit better. This hair item was a great find. The band is wide, which is fantastic! The plush material is very soft. The stitching is amazing - I cannot see how they put this accessory together. The ears on the piece are lovely and just the right size! The velvet ribbons are extremely sturdy and very sweet. The pretty white lace on the bows adds to the sweetness. I enjoy that there is a golden comb at the base of the hair accessory. This adds some additional stability. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/4g8uysnk7wpvge5b3pgzyqf50lojqw monthly 0.5 2023-09-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ddae7011-df36-48af-abab-2b3ea863895d/Square+%2818%29.png Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 1) - 3. Remember to Have Fun! The main reason you wear lolita fashion is because you enjoy it. I truly believe that anyone is able to wear and enjoy lolita fashion. This means that a disability or illness should not stop you or someone you care about from wearing lolita fashion. Lolita should empower you, no matter what. Have fun and wear your frills proudly! There is no shame in the creation of a balance between fashion and your illness. Trust your instincts and your body. Rest and dress up when you can! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/58513a33-8389-48ec-84fd-c992feef0b68/Square+%2815%29.png Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 1) - Tech Support If you require tubing or other small machines that are attached to your body, a one-piece dress or a jumperskirt are a great way to counsel these items. While you are able to cover these things with a skirt and a blouse, I find that a dress is better. A free-flowing dress allows for added security. Concealment I find that a sensitivity to the sun, or undesired skin condition, can be easily be hidden with layers. A long blouse, a sweater, and tights are an easy way to keep your skin covered. Additional items, such as gloves, hats, parasols, and socks, can be added as a way to cover your skin. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/76c3d6a5-fbbf-4a4c-843c-debde7cb2a00/Square+%284%29.png Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 1) - 1. Plan Your Coordinate If you can, plan your outfit the day before! That way, you can save that energy getting ready tomorrow. A dress form, or even a made bed, is a great place to work on your lolita coordinate. The time that you save with this task can be used towards the important activities for the next day! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/648a0052-05ec-4530-a40c-5793a5f0307e/Square+%2817%29.png Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 1) - Balance Balance is always important. If you are prone to off-balance tendencies, it may be beneficial to wear flat boots or shoes. Tea party styled shoes are my favorite for times I need to feel a bit more grounded than usual. If you require additional support to walk, such as the need to use a cane, try to find a style that fits into the Victorian aspect of lolita fashion. If you use a walker or wheelchair, feel free to let loose! Cover your required tools with ribbons, flowers or fluffy cute stuffed animals! Not only will you walk with confidence, but you will also have a bonus prop for you coordinate! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d031d25b-027e-4650-85b7-4f368d0c6342/yang-yu-1LQYUE-ZwIo-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Chronic Illness and Lolita Fashion (Part 1) - Lolita fashion is extravagant, especially when compared to mainstream everyday fashion. The energy it takes to physically get dress in this alternative fashion can be a lot. By the time you have finished getting dressed, you still need accessories, often a wig, and jewelry to complete the lovely look.

Haenuli's Crystal Guardians: Fairy Princess Set - After some adjustments and two trips back to Korea, my jumper skirt is here! My dress arrived, to stay, on May 25th, 2018. The dress was in a branded box, a hot pink bag, and this clear plastic bag. **Note: The original dress came with the center waist bow, but not the final dress. This was never replaced by the studio. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b9b51cad-9db9-49ce-8a29-6e43b5e79530/Copy+of+Untitled+Design+%286%29.png Lolita Blog - Review: It's Here!

There are also two lovely ribbons you can use to secure tie under your chin. The design is slender, so it is not confused with a feminine hygiene product. A lovely row of lace gives you a delicate and princess look. I love that this historical headpiece is making a comeback! Rating: 10 / 10 Similarly, to the head bow, the headdress features the print of the series. I really like the size of this headdress. The headdress has removable crimped ribbons to allow for additional looks.

This is the first headbow that I have bought from an indie brand that is even on each side. Rating: 10/10 Not only does this bow feature the beautiful print of stars and sparkles, it also features the gilded pink and gold brooch. The brooch is removable and the bow can be adjusted for coordination flexibility. The material that the bow is consisted of is the same as the dress. It is a lovely sturdy fabric.

It was wonderful to share our experience in the fashion with fellow fans of this frilly style. After the panel, It was wonderful to learn that the presentation had been helpful to beginner lolitas and curious attendees!

Each attendee received a raffle ticket upon arrival for tea party prizes. We each had our own individual porcelain teacup, and a selection of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. The menu selection for eatables was very impressive and catered to allergies, such as gluten and dairy. I was thrilled I could enjoy the dairy and gluten free a scone, a cucumber sandwich, and meringue cookie. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/vo75hwbtxbw4oq218xe40jb2dxzk5j monthly 0.5 2023-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ea4ade56-df21-4831-b23d-dbffb6fc2c17/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-23T091259.931.png Lolita Blog - Will This Change Impact Lolitas in The United States of America? - Recently, the current presidential administration imposed additional tariffs on the country of China. The tariff will cause a ten percent increase on selected Chinese goods. The list of over 28 pages of items, affects everything from food to raw materials. Unfortunately, there are a few items that may affect lolitas living in the United States of America. Overall, there will be $200 billion worth of items that qualify. What does this mean for me and other American Lolitas moving forward? Taobao and other Chinese marketplaces give buyers access to inexpensive and independent products. These include, but are not limited to, loliable and lolita niche products. Many independent goods produced by Chinese brands allow for Lolitas to save funds on clothes, accessories, and shoes. Not only do we save money, but the additional product designs allow for more diverse lolita coordinates. The more of a selection, the better.

I fail to see how potassium and other raw materials are copyrightable. Additionally, the fact that these fees still apply to originally designed bags, make-up, and wigs confuses me. Independent and creative designed products should not be held accountable to this tariff if the intention is only to prevent copyright infringement. As a plus-size lolita, I rely on overseas brands for many of my lolita pieces. The added service of custom sizing is crucial to my current and future success in this fashion. I also love that Taobao allows me to discover and purchase from smaller brands. The ability to by off-brand clothes and accessories allows for me to support the large lolita name-brands with big ticket item purchases. While this change will not appear to be more than a minor inconvenience at this time, I wonder how long it will take until there is a tariff on other lolita essentials. I hope the tariff does not expand. ©photo by Whale Fall https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1c6d5f2d-ea53-4cea-a207-380407993c77/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-23T091155.319.png Lolita Blog - Will This Change Impact Lolitas in The United States of America? - Which Items Apply? In this recent change, there will be a 10% tariff on handbags, backpacks, make-up and human hair. These particular selected goods appear to be the only possible lolita related products at this time. When Will This Happen? According to CNN's recent sources, the change will take place, "sometime after August 30, 2018." What Does This Mean for Me as a Consumer? There will be an increase to items within this tariff that you purchase. These include household items and products that are used for our niche fashion. Here an example of an item that I plan to purchase. ©photo by Whale Fall https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/daac2a00-15e1-4bd5-a6ae-8cd5a2ee4419/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-23T091549.165.png Lolita Blog - Will This Change Impact Lolitas in The United States of America? - The last paragraph of the star bag: “All prices have been rounded to the nearest dollar. The prices do not reflect shipping costs. Original Price: $24.00 Shopping Service Fee: $2.00 Tariff Fee: $3.00 = $29.00 As you can see, this price increase will create additional costs per item and impact large orders, too. ©photo by Whale Fall https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/x8gegdvs045w05nv0mrta0kdq7nutr monthly 0.5 2023-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/de527ecb-22a2-4166-9edf-a38bd365f3ee/image+%284%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - This Piece Isn't Right! My 5 Tips on What to Do Next - 3. File a Claim "The seller will not communicate with me or return my money." If the seller ignores your messages, refuses to return your money, or wants you to do something that PayPal and other services do not cover - escalate. If you are uncertain if your current circumstance warrants this, communicate with the third party company. Explain your situation to them. The staff there can access if your current occurrence requires their involvement. The staff at PayPal or a similar company may ask you to escalate the issue as a claim. The case will be viewed by the third-party company and a judgment will be ruled. Be sure to add your photos of the item that arrived, a link or screenshots of the listing for the item that you purchased and any conversation between you and the seller. This information is crucial evidence for the third party. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7fa675a9-697e-4694-8412-67051e6acbf3/image+%283%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - This Piece Isn't Right! My 5 Tips on What to Do Next - 5. Leave Feedback Leave feedback for the transaction. Whether you purchased an item from eBay, Lace Market or a custom website, there is usually a place where you are able to leave feedback. Be honest, but fair. Share that this opinion is based on your experience. You can explain that the item you received did not match the description, but if the seller had been eager to help be sure mention that. If the seller was difficult and a claim needed to be created, share that information. Any feedback is usually public, and your testimony will assist potential clients that are looking to purchase from the seller. I hope you never need this information but if you do, I hope that it helped! If you have a story to share, I would love to hear it. Please post below to share or to ask any questions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/67592248-b17a-424c-8501-77bf88607393/image+%286%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - This Piece Isn't Right! My 5 Tips on What to Do Next - 4. Your Refund If the case is ruled in your favor, the third-party company will usually request that you send the undesired item back to the seller. When you send the item to the return address, be sure to save the receipt so that you are able to be reimbursed with your claim. The third-party company will typically refund your payment and shipping cost themselves. There is no further involvement required on your part. The seller's account will be deducted for the return of your item and shipping costs of your order. If the seller does not have enough to cover the return, it is up to the third party to get their funds back. The claim will be marked on the seller's PayPal or third party for their purposes only. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/69cf69ce-257e-4089-a78c-6a13d4686de0/image+%287%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - This Piece Isn't Right!

My 5 Tips on What to Do Next - 2. Contact the Seller Connect with the business or person that sold you the item in question. Explain the issues that you have with the piece you received and attach the photos you have taken to support your case. Most sellers are willing to work with you to remedy the issue as quickly, and as quietly, as possible. What are the TOS? Does the seller of your item have a simple return/exchange policy? This would be the easiest manner to return your item. If your seller does not allow for returns in their policy, that does not mean that you are unable to return your item. If the item is not as described, you may still contact the seller. If you use an online shopping service that uses PayPal or a similar service, your items are covered if your claim is valid. Typically the sellers do not want a dispute to escalate to a claim and they will generally work with you to resolve the issue. If you and the seller are able to communicate and fix the problem together, do so! Just be sure that the seller's demands, and your own, are reasonable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c2dd30db-bc4c-43d5-ba3d-f3b8c054eefc/1495705294+%281%29.jpg Lolita Blog - This Piece Isn't Right! My 5 Tips on What to Do Next - Okay, the item is not what you thought it would be. What is wrong with the item? Is it not the color you planned on, or the size you thought it would be? It is important to assess that the issue of the piece to see if the fault lies with the seller, or if it was something you happened to overlook. If the item's online description matches the piece that you received, unfortunately, that is your mistake and not the mistake of the seller. If you still like the item, keep it. If not, you can sell it online or give it to a friend. Lolita swap meets are a great way to get rid of unwanted items, too. If the online information does not match the item that you have, that is an issue needs to be addressed quickly. 1.

Showcase any rips, tears, stains, misprints, color differences or other important factors. If the of the item measurements are incorrect, take photos of the item being measured to show the size discrepancy. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/whrgc94a49f47wjpvc1nevj8aay1d1 monthly 0.5 2023-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f2e11548-b46e-4c9f-a08f-95f3d0d6d700/rawpixel-626050-unsplash_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Important Update! - It all started with a Maxicimam lovely size dress review.

My mother has spoiled me with handmade costumes since I was born, so she was used to my love of over-the-top looks or requests. It was difficult to explain that this Japanese street fashion could be worn at any time and by anyone. Also, this fashion did not require a special occasion to be worn. Over the years, my mother has come to understand that lolita is a fashion, all be it an extravagant one. It helped when I began to wear lolita more often daily. Now, my mom goes out in public with me dressed in lolita fashion, and she even dresses up herself (but not in lolita). She even helps me to creates lolita pieces! Aside from my fiancee, my mother gets outwardly excited when I wear coords. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b4dd465d-991a-47ce-aa49-cf1037759550/Square+%284%29.png Lolita Blog - What My Family Thinks of Lolita Fashion - My Father My father has approved of lolita fashion, probably since the style is modest. My dad has always supported whatever hobby I am passionate about. He has the most thought provoking questions about the style! Gothic lolita is his favorite and he appears to like Classical Sweet lolita, too. I believe it is fun for him to see me express myself in such a bold manner since I am usually shy in public. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0c1d266f-79d1-4234-af95-89c3cbeb01f1/Square+%283%29.png Lolita Blog - What My Family Thinks of Lolita Fashion - My Fiancée My fiancee has known me since I had an active interest in lolita fashion. Unlike the other people I dated in the past, my fiancee has been supportive of my hobbies. She is the only person that has seen my full lolita progression, which includes my embarrassing beginning. While she is not interested in wearing the fashion herself, she appreciates that I am so passionate about it. Best of all, my fiancee accompanies me in public without a second thought! My fiancee has never misunderstood lolita fashion, and she enjoys that this style gives me so much joy. I would be completely lost without her photography or back bow tying skills! Whenever I make a coordinate, she can't help but take photos or compliment it. I'm very lucky! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4c8e71a8-3c7e-41f3-a59e-94a66d6a253f/Square.png Lolita Blog - What My Family Thinks of Lolita Fashion - Extended Family I do believe that my extended family knows that I dress in alternative fashion. I used to have a separate Facebook page so I could hide my extreme geek related items and fashion, but it seems like such a silly thing to be embarrassed about now. My family would have to work very hard to not see it. That being said, I haven't had an opportunity to wear lolita around my extended family as of yet. Ironically, I have worn lolita fashion around my future in-laws! They did not have any reaction save for my mother-in-law being impressed with my lolita coordinate for Halloween. With Facebook, I am sure that my fiancee's family knows that I am a total magical girl nerd and Japanese fashion fan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ce462715-b581-46f3-a019-2e20e1756b77/Square+%281%29.png Lolita Blog - What My Family Thinks of Lolita Fashion - My Brother My brother has always been supportive! He did have a year or so when he insisted that lolita fashion was the same as certain kink or fetish. Thankfully, that was only a minor blip in the history of my interest in lolita fashion. My little brother is pretty awesome! We are only a few years apart, and we tend to stick by one another no matter what. While he isn't necessarily interested in the fashion, he does not mind that I wear it. My brother treats me the same, in or out, of my frilly fashion style. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/review-two-blouses-and-one-bolero-by-glitter-tale monthly 0.5 2023-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/25cf204c-3657-4446-8329-652eb7f58f89/dscn5906_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - The second item I freed from it's plastic encased envelope was my bolero! I ordered the bolero in pink with white lace trim. Glitter Tale had inquired for my desired length before they created my item. In retrospect, I could have made this particular piece a bit shorter, but it is cute nonetheless! The bolero is constructed of a different cotton than the Sweet Princess blouse. This fabric is lighter and feels more like a polyester blend. Since the material is lighter, the bolero is a good fit for the Spring or Summer months. I am excited to wear this bolero when it is warmer in New England! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6e7f2e91-b266-442d-baeb-3ef25c1fced8/dscn5879_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - I absolutely love the sleeves on this blouse! The chiffon material allows the sleeve to stay lightweight and fall properly, without appearing clumsy. The ruffles hang in a lovely and elegant manner. My only concern is that there is a hot pink line on the inner part of my left sleeve. I contacted GlitterTale about it, and the staff explained it was a chalk mark. This is a common tool to ensure your items are the the correct size when sewing, but it is a bit concerning that the evidence is still there. The hot pink chalk marks are extremely noticeable against the light ivory chiffon material. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/67c7da8c-f952-4f49-a096-df8d79967543/onnoble-sports-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695338802661-RU09ET9SAZAB4ABHADGQ/dscn5885.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695338802729-NT5JISHJMB2DW1PX2PCJ/dscn5886_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695338803603-OG97D5YNXNS3FU7JEQ8V/dscn5888_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695339059398-DMHZS9U9XFBREFL50XD2/dscn5887_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5c8c4935-4bde-4e65-8eda-77d6aafd0ca2/onnoble-sports_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/12dc90cf-c287-4ee9-80e3-0e353b35a558/2_40.png Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b81fcdea-e62c-40a4-b9e9-53cd18ed3b2f/dscn5874_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - Last, but certainly not least, is my ivory blouse! I absolutely love that this custom sized blouse matched it's stock image counterpart. The elegant design of this piece is simply stunning in person! The chiffon material that the piece is made from is very soft and light-weight. Not only is it beautiful material, but it is a breathable fabric as well. The blouse is an excellent addition to a summer coordinate. All the ruffles on the blouse maintain their shape perfectly, despite the gentle material. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/50167d27-b732-4565-a336-6d8a56cc6edd/dscn5884_1.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - The stitching on the blouse is flawless. Each ruffle and pintuck have been place and produced with a flawless result. I do not need to worry about these aspects becoming slack over time. The blouse has beautiful high quality pearl buttons with a gold frame. The buttons have a good weight, so they will keep the blouse together when worn. Glitter Tale also included additional buttons, just in case. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695342192482-0LPFLOGW4NBE5DOY5UCJ/dbacwho5_3_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695342192102-0KO734LP9M21TENZ6V7K/05iajtct_4.png Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/00539b72-c607-40e6-be8b-c0c48a801708/1.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - The first item I opened was my Sweet Princess Blouse. Instead of the light chiffon, I requested that the blouse be made from cotton. I needed my white cotton blouse to be replaced. I am so happy with the result! The cotton that the blouse is constructed of is of exceptional quality. The cotton is sturdy, soft to the touch and not transparent. While my former short-sleeved blouse was created with a thinner fabric, this cotton does not disappoint. There may be a small amount of spandex to the material as well, which makes the garment even better! Each aspect of this blouse have been carefully executed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9ced1c00-4988-4ed7-b7b3-c7a49ed4bb68/dscn5916_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - The lace details on this piece are super pretty and they are constructed of an excellent quality! There is both a row of egg white lace and pure white lace on the bolero. This attribute can be found along the collar and at the edge of the sleeves. I am able to pair this bolero with a variety of lolita items. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b4e6e0bd-d71a-4827-a41a-e48de503aae5/dscn5878_2.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - This blouse features the same pearl buttons that the Sweet Princess Blouse with a golden frame. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/73f5007f-2245-4c0d-a558-6087c981d70e/lmen2gyf_1.png Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4576ab6d-9b81-46d9-bd82-30a4c9be3a4f/dscn5875_4_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Two Blouses and One Bolero by Glitter Tale - I am very impressed with the construction.

Many lolita fashion brands, specifically indie lolita brands, offer a custom tailor fee for their pieces. This option is wonderful for lolitas that desire apparel made to their measurements. As a plus size Lolita, many of the articles in my lolita wardrobe have been tailored made for me. I have smaller friends that need to have items made to their measurements as well. Here’s what you need to know about custom sizing! ©LadySloth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b2eba3b6-d0ef-4e63-90d9-6bfd3f01575f/37143997_1889161927810156_2015499041000914944_n.jpg Lolita Blog - Custom Sizing: What You Need to Know - Buy the Available Size Even the most popular lolita brands create items that can accommodate customers larger or smaller than the "standard" size. The gathered material, known as shirring, is the most common feature to allow for a wider range of sizes. Many of the indie and name-brand lolita dresses feature partial or full shirring. If the dresses do not feature shirring, these items are often smaller than the typical size. Indie lolita brands tend to have much more size diversity than the name-brand lolita companies. Instead of just S, M and L, quite a few indie fashion brands offer XL and beyond without the need to pay a custom sizing fee! Be sure to check out the sizing table before you complete your purchase. ©LadySloth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fb27c330-320a-4eae-be47-7691e1926dff/37085197_1889176827808666_8628596886871212032_n.jpg Lolita Blog - Custom Sizing: What You Need to Know - Make it Yourself. If you have the skills and the patience to alter or create items yourself, that's amazing! You should absolutely take advantage of those skills. There are many free and paid resources to do-it-yourself lolita patterns. Otome no Sewing and the Gothic & Lolita Bible series have pattern inserts to help you make your own lolita items. Shops like TeaandTreadle on Etsy have a wide array of patterns to choose from. Whether you would like to create a blouse or a dress, there are tutorials to assist you. ©LadySloth https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/27bf24c6-9349-4bb0-8fab-cf0fd7dcf7ba/37099576_1889161171143565_8778094442063069184_n.jpg Lolita Blog - Custom Sizing: What You Need to Know - Custom Size Your Main Piece If the need to create a custom size is inevitable, choose to pay the custom sizing fee on your main piece.

I share that I trust them and that I am excited to share this lovely fashion with them. This has never backfired. I always choose to share my items with people that I trust, and people that will respect me and respect my possessions. Keep your expectations reasonable!

Make an Important Decision Are you comfortable lending out your lolita clothes and accessories? If so, which specific pieces are you willing to share with your friend or family member? Are there some special pieces that you are not comfortable lending to them? If something happens to your item, are you able to replace it and/or are you okay with the realization that something may happen to the item? It is completely natural to have special items that you want to make exclusive to you. You may even find that you are more willing to lend items or apparel to particular loved ones, and not with others. What is important to remember is that these are your items! You are absolutely welcome to make the decisions on what to share, and even if you would like to share your lolita garments and accessories.

Communication What are your particular questions about the item? What is the brand or maker of the item? What are some of the ways they store or care for their pieces? What are the care instructions for the item that you will borrow? Be open with your friend with any inquiries you may have to avoid confusion. 4. Be Considerate Before you take the item into your care, ask your friend about the care instructions and if they would like for you to wash or dry clean the garments before you return them. Some lolitas may say yes, and others may say no. At least once the item is worn you will know about your next plan of attack. Remember, this item belongs to someone else. Be sure to take care of the item! If was incredibly kind of your friend to lend one of their lolita treasures to you! If something happens to the item, be honest with your friend. Accidents happen. Even if an accident occurs, take ownership of it and make it right.

What are You Comfortable with? As the person who is borrowing your friend's lolita garment or item, the possession will be under your care and responsibility. If your lolita friend wishes to lend you a dream dress of theirs for an event, are you comfortable with that? With the item under your care, you will be responsible for any damage, or heaven forbid theft, that occurs in relation to that item or items. If you are not comfortable with this, then express that. Most likely, your friend will have some additional pieces for them to lend you. You and your lolita friend both need to be comfortable with the items in your care! 2. Choose the End Date or Event For what event or time period will your borrow this particular lolita piece for? When will you return the item to your friend? Are you comfortable with wearing this piece for this specific event or day?

Choose the Date or Event If you are comfortable with lending your items over to your loved one without a particular event, great! If not, I find that specific parameters for yourself and your loved one can come in handy! I have offered to share my lolita items for friends that would like to attend a lolita fashion meet-up, an anime convention, or any other special events with greater ease. This is especially the case with fashion meet-up and events that are lolita fashion friendly. How about a lolita meet-up that involves a fun filled romp in the woods while completely dressed in Angelic Pretty? Mmm, perhaps not. My favorite suggestion is to hold a lolita transformation day at my place! Not only can all of the items be laid out and shared easily, but my friend or family member is able to get comfortable physically wearing the fashion. As we seasoned lolitas know, bloomers and a petticoat take a bit to get used to.

A great place to start would be some lovely new Lolita blouses! A few additions from Glitter Tale specifically. Glitter Tale is an indie Lolita fashion brand in Vietnam. The company creates beautiful handmade pieces that are great for any Lolita wardrobe. This indie brand creates custom sized items without an additional fee. As a plus size Lolita, this option, particularly a complimentary one, is always a welcomed bonus! I have heard great things about the company and their products and, with the sudden announcement that their items have a 10% discount, how could I possibly resist this sale"? While I could add many of Glitter Tale's designed pieces to my wardrobe, I want to keep my first order fairly reasonable. This way, I can measure the quality and construction of the items and see if the items are true to my size and custom measurements. I plan to order two blouses: Sweet Princess and Custom 32. In additions to these blouses, I also plan to order the Camellia Bolero as well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0e0ee416-7fa3-4eaf-96b1-c3f10f953f6f/katie-harp-AX3xCBBTAik-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion Tax Return Plans - It is one of the most rewarding times of the year.

We attended a local cafe downtown to start. It is always fun to try new places! Our delicious tea fueled a spontaneous trip to a new candy shop. I am excited to share my experience with you! I posted a coordinate poll on my Facebook page. My followers chose Melty Cream Doughnut for my cafe meetup. It's the first time I have worn the dress out. The print was perfect for this event! The weather on this day was a challenge! In Maine, it was bitterly cold. To top it off, we had 40 mph winds. When I left my apartment, I wished I had worn a simple wig. Once I arrived downtown, I made my way to Dobra Tea, the cafe location. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e57aa26b-54b3-4905-9341-b5c1b2c0083f/nfqx4gp4-jpg-large_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day - The shop was the perfect place for coordinate photos! We only took a few, since it was pretty crowded on a Saturday. The staff was super friendly, and the other customers liked our outfits, too! The dessert case was a great place to take photos. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695769692072-FY0CC2VCCU4QNCOF8U2X/n1vzcmkg-jpg-large_1.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695769692125-9Z5X0KJP48NP5N17796O/xr73j6b1-jpg-large.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/85acc529-3b81-4c28-8d5a-daf4a7dddc65/pi6ykeyh-jpg-large_2.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day - What could be sweeter for a February meetup than a trip to a candy shop? Lolli and Pops was decorated for Valentine's Day. Since the shop was new, we had never seen it before! Cierra and I were excited to explore this new business. Our coordinates fit in nicely with our sweet surroundings. From cookies to caramels, cotton candy to gummi bears, there wasn't anything we couldn't find. Each item in the shop was wrapped in such a cute way! I had to take a few goodies home. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695770650362-B4AIB5FLM9N3SABZI4LG/selfie-jpg-large_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695770650442-BIYTQLWUA1SMW95X1ZJ5/fqavktfa.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695769457810-JXHTE9UKFONGJN5JQY8W/ey5dzmw-jpg-large_2.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695769457968-JSG8VZ9ETA7K8AIS8YRH/qokljtyy-jpg-large_1.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695769534186-R6UC4LTPCR1TJR0DINZT/jxn4sggd-jpg-large_5.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695769534411-LUGSEVITJITZTXZGGN7D/z8o4s4u-jpg-large_2.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695770177807-87CYKGJC7DSMDBZP7CAC/s7ua8onh-jpg-large.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695770178949-Y9NBN97L7201QTZFX485/this-jpg-large.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695770253311-Q8NCO98D4YRRP4L07DOT/7dcwxeml-jpg-large.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695770200358-Q78CUVK54E38JWYJ80GD/g-lpuevp-jpg-large.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Meet-Up: Valentine's Day https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-small-tribute-from-baby-the-stars-shine-bright monthly 0.5 2023-09-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7b217941-93b3-46c9-a79e-ce688869b6b5/dscn5345_2.png Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - I requested a brand shopping bag and my request was indulged! My order had been carefully encased in a plastic cover. I was excited to see that there was a surprise business card! But wait, there is an additional surprise. The card was actually a decal! I have wanted a brand decal to display on my baby blue Nissan Versa Note for quite some time. I was not even aware the BABY created such novelties themselves. I cannot wait to put it on my vehicle, cellphone or any other flat surface. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/64a4ef56-6ff8-4588-adfa-962bdeba10da/dscn5354_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - My mini Usakumya rucksack was wrapped carefully within lovely light pink folded tissue paper. As with most shipped items from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright the presentation was absolutely lovely. Usakumya is too cute for words! For an item that is only 13 centimeters tall, the details on this backpack are absolutely stunning! Each detail on this Usakumya looks just like it's larger counterpart. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695165417399-LBZGHPCVT5OJOL1NSULB/5d0be5d9-0117-4a21-ae1a-81060841c9f6.jpeg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695165417463-EVYVW4Y6GE3E8QS6RQS6/128c195f-8f97-4ac7-9c59-b16ac057885f.jpeg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695165418295-91FH22AKVB501KCV0Z6I/c0daddc7-c9b1-416a-9727-a64365bb4f1d.jpeg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/54062528-0a19-42b7-94f5-a15880382e97/dscn5374_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - The rhinestones that are attached to Usakumya's hair ribbons have been stitched to the bow and hood rather than glued. This was a complete surprise. While I have never lost a glued rhinestone on a Baby, the Stars Shine Bright piece, this added measure of security was a wonderful aspect! As seen in the stock photos, the rabbit hood can be moved off of the mascot's head if you'd like another look. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bca85a16-baec-452b-b33f-b90843e2ab77/dscn5360_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - The Usakumya is constructed of mostly soft fleece. The lace on Usakumya's collar is intricate and soft to the touch. The lace also appears to be very sturdy, so it should keep up well. The satin ribbon at the mascot's neck and atop of the bunny hood are well constructed and give Usakumya a sweet look. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3d6b0d96-fa87-4b95-ba53-65490e2d07f5/dscn5383_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - At Usakumy's back you can see the attached rucksack back straps, a BABY copyright information tag and a pink stitched back seam. I love the added detail of the back seam because it makes this miniature Usakumya resemble a recently completed stuffed animal. It is truly a charming detail. A metal ring is at the base of Usakumya's back. Connected to this ring are two lobster claps. There are also a set of lobster clasps at the base of the mascot as well. The base lobster claps are attached to two d-rings. The back straps of the rucksack are made of grosgrain ribbon and each strap features a plastic slider. This miniature rucksack has adjustable straps! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c0368b2c-776a-4076-986d-6879d40c6316/dscn5541_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - The size of this Usakumya is perfect for Hitomi! As a 50 cm doll, Hitomi is roughly 10 CM too tall for an MSD doll size and 10 CM too short for an SD sized doll. All previous releases of the exclusive VOLKS Usakumya would be too large for Hitomi. I am happy to be able to report that Little Usakumya Rucksack at 13 inches is the perfect for a 40-50 centimeter doll, and Usakumya Rucksack Mini Mini at 21 centimeters should be a great fit for a 60-65 centimeter doll. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/94a02cdf-84e4-403f-9815-dc95f5d6675a/dscn5382_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - At the bottom of mascot's left foot, there is a beautifully embroidered BABY logo with a rhinestone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f5863f20-12ab-4bd5-ba44-f190d69c5da7/77_6_orig.png Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - This bunny bear mascot is quite famous in our niche fashion community! Currently, I do not have a dress in my wardrobe that would match this cute icon and do it justice. While this is a fact I hope to remedy this year, it does not mean that I can't enjoy a miniature version of the Usakumya rucksack in the meantime! ©Baby, the Stars Shine Bright x VOLKS https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695168009420-UVB29028L2HIFHHW7TKF/dscn5495_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695168007429-37C5MQDRQMSSARW2BTG0/dscn5459_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695168006973-MZBFDQD0XIPWZKH0RR9K/dscn5451_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695168004674-K8C4LRNCEOH0XRC0Q0E8/dscn5430_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d55d7923-c560-4d1a-87ec-cc2c6583d5b7/onnoble-sports-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/822e25f6-eb5f-4a66-9a78-71a1206f5dab/main-2x_orig.png Lolita Blog - A Small Tribute from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/40nt483apyhxiua5tfh23na5l3xjjt monthly 0.5 2023-09-19 https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/farewell-baby-the-stars-shine-bright-store-in-new-york-city monthly 0.5 2023-09-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695058599867-2KGOF9VJIBZ06DA6S3ET/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-18T131912.929.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - PUTUMAYO ​Closing in 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695058597183-NH29XJFJ48SKNM52HQIS/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-18T132653.478.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Victorian Maiden Closing in 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695058597997-Z6GCHQMRD6TH061GL0DC/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-18T133036.701.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Baby, the Stars Shine Bright New York, Closing in 2018 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ec0e9fd2-1ed4-4c36-8483-86f10157f5bf/24_4_orig.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/83eca4ac-073d-4a99-a267-824677712eac/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-19T173200.447.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Cost Japanese name brands are viewed as the high end of the Lolita fashion world. Due to this, coupled with the quality and the name, the price per item is more expensive than many indie brands. These name brand items are viewed as luxury pieces. However, since the brand-specific items are not required, the need to purchase these luxury items isn’t necessary. Many of us save money by buying a statement piece from a brand and supporting items from non-brands. What about San Fransisco? While this particular shop location is closing, it doesn’t mean that the flagship store will close. There is a great deal of Japanese influence in California. Not only that, but there are additional shops, like Angelic Pretty, to help make San Francisco a beacon for Lolitas in the USA. This change may even lead the Baby location in San Francisco to see more sales! Now, all of the Baby, the Stars Shine Bright and Alice and the Pirates US items will be obtainable at one in store and online shop. photo via tokyofashion.com https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/99d22e81-98c0-425d-b904-e9fdf4fd7d86/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-19T172749.393.jpg Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Access We now have access to many Lolita brands. From the well-known name brands to the small indie brands, the fashion is accessible. We can now buy directly from brands or through a shopping service inexpensively. There are literally thousands of dresses, skirts and accessories to choose from! Gone are the days when most Lolita could be only purchased from the Japanese brands or handmade. Since this Japanese street fashion is much easier to obtain, we can choose where to shop. This can mean that we support smaller brands and hunt down previous releases by the brand names we love. We do not have to consume what the name brands release when they release it. The sense of urgency for a brand release has minimized, unless the release is one, we have to have. While a physical store is a remarkable experience and a great way to see the details of items in person, the ease of an online platform is much more accessible. This is especially true for those of us who do not live near a physical storefront. photo via tokyofashion.com https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/759f6a6e-6210-4ede-a498-0e0b0283f13a/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-19T171854.413.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - How Do I Plan to Help? My plan of action is a simple one. I plan to do what I have done so far. I will wear Lolita fashion proudly and represent the style to the best of my abilities. Each coordinate is an opportunity to try something new with this beautiful and expressive style. I will continue to educate the curious about the fashion, and create helpful content to assist these inquisitive individuals on their fashion journey. As a new piece of the plan, I want to support the Japanese brands directly when I can. Many of my purchases will be made online, but I would also like to visit the physical stores at least every few years and make my purchases in person. I am extremely passionate about American's flagship stores, and I do not want them to close. While there are iconic accessories that I may find second hand on the marketplace, my goal is to purchase the items directly from the San Francisco, CA locations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695057133727-L0NB0P1ODL9HICSAE4SB/glb42.jpg Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible - End of Publication 2017 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695057248269-3POXSFGPLJTANM9RZN01/aramajapan_tumblr_onkg41mthr1qfvrzvo1_1280.jpg Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - KERA - End of Physical Publication 2017 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7376b2ca-ca5c-405b-ade0-bfde668bb724/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-19T174102.215.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - What does this mean for U.S.A. Lolitas? That is a good question! Since I was not a frequent customer at the New York location or an employee, I am not sure how many Lolitas or people who knew of the fashion visited. In my experience, I have seen a great increase in people who are aware of lolita or other street fashions. To say that I am always pleasantly surprised when someone compliments my coordinate, or ask what brand my items are would be an understatement! To hear such lolita fashion related lingo from seemingly ordinary people is quite a treat. Cute fashion as a whole has begun to be more accepted in the United States over the past few years, and even main retail stores like Hot Topic are on board. Lolitas are now able to purchase items worldwide! With secondhand markets, shopping services, Japanese brand name shops that offer international shipping, and the rising popularity of indie brands, it has never been easier to own and wear Lolita fashion. There are hundreds of styles, prints, sizes and colorways to choose from. This proves that the fashion as a whole still has a hungry client base of customers. photo via tokyofashion.com https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b7463a25-25e1-48de-a283-2cdb468ce105/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-18T135059.432.png Lolita Blog - Farewell Baby, The Stars Shine Bright NYC - Why, Baby? There are many possible reasons why Baby could have decided to close this particular store. Perhaps the rent for the location was too high, or perhaps Baby was not able to draw in the desired clientele. Without a defined reason from the brand directly, we are only left to our speculations. Location The west coast has always trumped the east coast in regards to Japanese influences. I would love to have access to a Little Tokyo type of scene on my end of America! While there is a strong Lolita community here, it is possible that New York City is not the best location for this niche boutique. It could be that the overhead to maintain the store was too high to be covered by the purchases made. I wonder if another less expensive part of New York City, or another east coast city entirely, such as Boston, would prove to be a good fit for the Japanese name brand in the future. We'll have to see. photo via tokyofashion.com https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/predict-the-next-lolita-fashion-trend monthly 0.5 2023-09-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ba98893e-d2d2-4035-a323-cb656ac11f45/Untitled+design+%2894%29.png Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - Make it stand out Strawberry Whip Mini Sleeve OP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f76ee631-bde5-44d5-a94e-c917c7f7f657/61VRYZOBbdL._AC_SL1000_.jpg Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - 2. Printed Blouses With the choice of printed dresses, skirts, headbows, socks, tights and other Lolita goodies, it is just a matter of time before we have printed blouses! I have come across many blouses that have a print that would go perfectly with a certain Lolita print release or a Lolita theme. A printed blouse would be another great way to complement the print in your main piece! With blouses that have coordinate elements along the collar or the lace, I feel as if this would be the next level. It would be extremely fun to see what Lolitas would put together! While I have not been able to accomplish this aspect as of yet, I am on the lookout for blouses that I can achieve this look with. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695019057723-JQJHOVMXSC0CMCOUQG3O/il-340x270-1205796791-eqpf.png Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - ©bobbypinsco https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695019057751-Q4QCZO5HQ1LTC256AMYC/il-570xn-1193834838-cgl1.png Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - ©JellyUltra https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695019056855-E5KY1GO6QHV013K7V5J6/dtetvrevoaahrru.png Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - ©joutp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1695019056878-RQDWUGKRHEQ2QE77KDSQ/file-e60b26501c-original.jpg Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - ©candycorpse https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bc8a01cd-2c22-496d-bf6f-562cf0f97231/Untitled+design+%28100%29.png Lolita Blog - Predict the Next Lolita Fashion Trend - 3. Colorful Tights This fashion aspect is something that I have started to see in a few daily Lolita coordinate shots from other Lolitas. A pop of solid color, specifically on the topic tights, is something I have seen recently. For this addition to a lolita coordinate feature a solid set of tights and a printed set of socks. The solid set of tights is worn with the printed set of socks layered over them. This look is a great way to maintain modesty, add more color to a lolita outfit and keep you warm in a colder climate! I believe that the solid tights help to showcase the small details of your overall piece and your printed socks. What do you think about my potential Lolita fashion trend predictions? What trends and changes do you think will happen in the future? I would absolutely love to read your answers and guesses!

This tantalizing prompt is one that I have wanted to do for some time. I enjoy the trends and changes that have occurred during my time in this alternative fashion. It is incredible that Lolitas can constantly expand the fashion style with creative and unique aspects. What are my guesses for future trends? Let's see if any of my fun predictions come true! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/vpaat5ntupzyxbizkx1tl8d4m72lkp monthly 0.5 2023-09-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b00c7ff2-602c-46b2-9dfa-a8c317d4c62b/Untitled+design+%2896%29.png Lolita Blog - Chores and Lolita Fashion; 5 Tips on How to Keep House in Frills - 4. Say No to Burando While there are household chores that you can do while dressed in a Lolita name brand item, it isn't worth the risk. When I clean, I wear items that are composed of a material that can be easily treated. These clothing items can also easily replaced if something completely unsuspected happens. 5. Wear a Simple Hairstyle I like to wear a simple short wig style when I clean, such as a bob. Not only does the wig hair primarily stay in place, but there aren't any additional pieces with a bob. Usually, I wear a lot of wigs with pigtail clips. A short or medium wig style allows for fewer layers also, so your head does overheat while you cater to your to-do list. Your natural hair is also a great option! After all, a wig is just an additional layer you have to wear. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ada90ac0-b9be-4a52-b0c8-5f9003058ec3/meotina-women-shoes-low-heels-mary-jane-classics-ladies-shoes-pumps-autumn-round-toe-square-heels-jpg-640x640_1.jpg Lolita Blog - Chores and Lolita Fashion; 5 Tips on How to Keep House in Frills - 1.Wear Comfortable Footwear While tall heels or platform style shoes look great with a Lolita coordinate, they are not particularly suited for this type of affair. For any outdoor chores, I suggest a comfortable flat or low-heeled set of shoes. The recommended flatware may consist of a pair of tea party shoes, boots, Mary Jane's or another similar type. The comfort is important if you will be moving around for any length of time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/92485022-bb1d-4a90-9513-0f9b13e81e93/Untitled+design+%2899%29.png Lolita Blog - Chores and Lolita Fashion; 5 Tips on How to Keep House in Frills - 2. Use a small Petticoat I love a grand monster petticoat poof for a show-stopping coord, but this volume makes cleaning a challenge. A daily petticoat is a better fit for household chores. Less volume means fewer accidents! Obstacles are much easier to avoid and you can minimize knocking against unseen items. With a smaller poof, it is also much easier to squeeze into smaller spaces if needed. Alternatively, if you have a dress or a skirt with a built-in petticoat, that would be a great choice! Take advantage of it. 3. Wear an Apron An apron, on top of being an adorable addition to your coordinate, an apron helps to protect your Lolita clothes from any unwanted contact with a number of things, such as spills and potential stains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8b73355e-65f3-4959-952d-852388df542c/Untitled+design+%2896%29.png Lolita Blog - Chores and Lolita Fashion; 5 Tips on How to Keep House in Frills - As a Lolita with a full schedule, it is difficult to find the time to do much of anything! My week seems to fly by when it comes to any free time. Due to my full schedule, it is often a challenge to fit in fun hobbies like Lolita, and necessities such as weekly household chores. Sometimes, in order to accomplish both, I do some light housework tasks and cleaning while in Lolita fashion. For those of us who find themselves in a similar situation, here are my tips on how to keep house while in frills! Indoor Chores Includes such tasks such as: doing laundry, washing dishes, getting rid of clutter, sweeping, vacuuming, and dusting. Outdoor Chores Includes such tasks as: running errands, grocery shopping, putting out recycling, and shoveling snow. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/q8rna8tbc42pbse60kkl5bj6rlj91s monthly 0.5 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/26f63862-0c99-4834-9040-f55bd83292f7/121_21.png Lolita Blog -

What is International Lolita Day? - As I select a dress and make the initial Lolita coordinate preparations today, I can scarcely contain my excitement! In celebration of International Lolita Day, my local community will gather together to catch up and enjoy Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms. I realized that there may be some new members to lolita fashion that may not know if this special day. I hope that this blog post will explain the significance of this semi-annual tradition. ©Maison de Julietta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/40bf9a25-8c62-4a35-8187-ecd2ff7d9e34/Maison-de-Julietta-Harajuku-Lolita-036.jpg Lolita Blog - What is International Lolita Day? - What is International Lolita Day? International Lolita Day is a special day for the members of our Lolita fashion community. It is a day in which we celebrate this expressive and stunning Japanese fashion. Many Lolitas find this day as a great excuse to wear special coordinates, partake in Lolita friendly activities, or attend Lolita fashion meetups. Many times, these meetups are held in a particularly special place and/or have a theme. When is it? Instead of just one day to officially enjoy Lolita fashion, we have two days a year! International Lolita Day is celebrated on the first Saturday of June and again on the first Saturday of December. Not only do we have two excuses a year to dress our best, but we have two seasons to do so as well! This way, most of the world can participate in a Lolita holiday in a summer and in the winter season. ©Maison de Julietta https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d919aaf3-75b8-49e4-8ccc-bb9df61e3292/Maison-de-Julietta-Harajuku-Lolita-029-600x900.jpg Lolita Blog - What is International Lolita Day? - Is there a proper way to celebrate? You should enjoy Lolita in whatever way you would like or what is realistic for you. I myself have had a wide range of ways to commemorate this day. On days that I have had to work in the past, I have watched Kamikaze Girls or have purchased from an online Lolita shop. Other times, I have been able to participate in picturesque photos shoots, picnics on a grassy knoll, and high tea events! International Lolita Day is simply an excuse to enjoy the fashion you love and know that there are hundreds of other Lolitas who are celebrating with you in spirit. Feel free to just enjoy the day! ©Maison de Julietta https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/oh8sr3tbjrtq8l234exmest53gcvzq monthly 0.5 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4c20a459-a506-4e99-981e-2ac4dc061544/dscn5010.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Handmade Lolita Doll Clothes by Espoir Dream - This piece is stunning!

These socks look incredible on my Obitsu when worn! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694964470917-6T2PY5Z3IA6WFR870V8B/21432793-1612767195464622-3414206578113604919-n_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Handmade Lolita Doll Clothes by Espoir Dream https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694964469904-18HM03D911C9AN3O8HU6/21369146-1612767095464632-3255260129350060967-n_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Handmade Lolita Doll Clothes by Espoir Dream https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694964469950-YIILCFJH1L9JX7GPI2PE/21369507-1612767225464619-29113421280712948-n_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Handmade Lolita Doll Clothes by Espoir Dream https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6d8e12c6-7700-474f-bf4f-8ce12117919d/dscn5068.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Handmade Lolita Doll Clothes by Espoir Dream - Just like the one-piece set in sax blue, the pink lolita coordinate set came with a one-piece dress, over-the-knee socks, and an underskirt. Unlike the sax set, this coordinate came with a matching bonnet! Similarly to the sax blue set, each piece of this collection is simply adorable!

It fits perfectly under the dress to give the piece a fuller look. The elastic is very stretchy, so it can accommodate a wide range of waist sizes. With Hitomi's petticoat and the underskirt combined, the dress creates the perfect lolita cupcake shape! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4454cb71-03d9-4a99-972f-7d215ac09cf7/dscn5044_1.png Lolita Blog - Review: Handmade Lolita Doll Clothes by Espoir Dream - The head bow is such a wonderful addition to this coordinate!

While I would love to have a fashion wardrobe like Misako Aoki's, I can accomplish a similar wardrobe by adding items gradually. It just takes one piece at a time! I intent to add: 2 Lolita Blouses, 1 Jumperskirt, 1 Lolita Bag, 1 Set of Winter Boots, 1 Lolita Coat I hope to accomplish this goal for sure! Now that my local lolita community is up and running once more, I now have multiple chances to wear and show off my lolita coordinates. This also means that I need a complete set of clothes to choose from! I hope that I can accomplish this goal in 2018. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/07355b91-d56a-4130-af67-80c6fe61f575/image+%283%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - 2018 Lolita New Year Resolutions - Take More Photos I have taken a few more photos than I usually do, but I am notorious for not doing so. I never make time to take a quick outfit shot. I enjoy the ability to see how far my lolita coordinates have come! Not only that, but it has been very nice to have the option to add my own images to my blog posts. In the upcoming year, I would like to take at least twenty lolita coordinate photos. If I could sneak a lolita fashion photo shoot in as well, that would be a fantastic addition to this particular aspiration! What are your 2018 Lolita aspirations?

It feels as if I had recently that I had made my goals for the upcoming 2017 season and wow, I sure gave myself a ton of goals to accomplish! In this blog post, I will review my intended goals for this past 2017 and create my 2018 new year resolutions.

This single video unexpectedly turned into a lolita YouTube channel! Shooting, editing, and planning videos have become its own beautiful challenge. I have learned so much already and have yet even more to learn. My goal for 2018 is to maintain this channel by posting a video once a month. At the end of the year, I would love to see how far I have come and assessed what I can improve on in the coming year. 12 videos to go! For the love of frills, Blog Of course, I intend to maintain my blog posts in addition to my YouTube channel. I cannot believe how far this little blog has come, or how far my own fashion has evolved. Recently, I have learned how helpful these posts have been to new Lolitas and even a few seasoned ones. This knowledge makes me incredibly happy! I am happy that others find that this online content is a helpful resource. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d3f38d36-0e1f-40d4-86a0-1f12b2ff5fab/1495705294+%281%29.jpg Lolita Blog - 2018 Lolita New Year Resolutions - My 2017 Goals included: a Lolita winter coat a pair of Lolita winter boots an additional blouse an additional bag a new Jumperskirt Wardrobe Expansion - Fail Wow, I really set some pretty high expectations for myself! I can honestly say that I accomplished only three of the five components of this goal. I did add a coat, another blouse, and two jumperskirts to my lolita wardrobe, but I was not able to add any of the large winter components. Thankfully, I still have plenty of time to do so! After all, the winter weather is just getting started in New England. Keep A Fallen Star ™ - Pass Keep A Fallen Star was my little hobby business. Once I got the website up and running, I quickly realized that it was silly to have a separate business identity. So, while I have retired Keep A Fallen Star, you can find all of my handmade items in the shop housed here right on magicalgirlme! I can safely say that I accomplished this particular goal. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lpdaoqg0fxnakxwx3sfo1glrbuosz3 monthly 0.5 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0a23daca-506e-4b4a-a64d-061c6316c220/wish-list_orig.png Lolita Blog - Every Lolita Needs a Wishlist - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/l8iji9p84okqv4ccy9yu6cwr5xq5je monthly 0.5 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3c39782e-873e-450b-8bc0-1a35476f6618/Untitled+design+%2893%29.png Lolita Blog - Help! I’m the Only Lolita Here - My Advice 1. Do Not Panic It is okay. Do not panic. I know it is the first natural response, but it is not going to help the situation. You are in a space, you look beautiful, it is going to be okay. Take a deep breath. You've got this! 2. Access the Situation Okay. Take a moment to look around you. Is the space that you are in a public space? Are there people around? Is there a decent amount of foot traffic? If you needed help, would you be able to approach someone if you needed to? It is important that you are not completely isolated. You want to feel generally safe in this area by yourself. If you feel that space is hostile in any way, you should leave as soon as possible. No event is worth a possible threat, or the stress that comes from worrying that a possible threat is around the corner. Play it safe! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9a8bfc4c-1e7e-4a01-8ff3-91a2c2ef83d7/Untitled+design+%2895%29.png Lolita Blog - Help! I’m the Only Lolita Here - Another important aspect of this step is transportation. Do you have access to it? If you drove yourself to the meet-up, are you able to access your vehicle quickly? If someone had dropped you off at the event, are you able to call them and have them pick you up? Are you able to contact a taxi, Lift or Uber to collect you if something comes up? You need to be able to leave quickly and safely. 3. Ask Yourself if This is an Event Worth Attending Is this a meet-up that you would enjoy if you stayed? Is it something you can enjoy without other Lolitas? It is important to consider your options. Would you be happier doing something else with your time? If you would rather go home and play a video game, read a book, or enjoy another activity with your time - do it! I can understand that this discussion may be more difficult if funds for the event had been paid for ahead of time. Still, I do not see the point in attending an event if you are not going to enjoy the time you spend there. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/008aafbc-4708-4c60-b13a-ada95233f485/Untitled+design+%2890%29.png Lolita Blog - Help! I’m the Only Lolita Here - Have you ever attended a lolita fashion meet up and the event does not go as planned? I recently attended a lolita gathering for International Lolita Day that had a big surprise. Once I arrived at the meetup location, I learned that no one else would be able to attend the gathering. In this blog post, and in a corresponding video, will share my recent meetup experience and give you my tips on how to handle a similar situation. Once Upon a Time... I could not wait to attend this December International Lolita Day meetup! My local lolita community planned an extra special event to celebrate. As this was my first winter meet, there wasn't any way that I would miss this event! For this holiday event, the group activities included: A visit to a local museum for their 'Festival of Trees' exhibit, have a delicious meal at a local cafe, and conduct a holiday gift swap! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694953885318-7QJT97M265C4NK8NN7O6/dscn4839_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - Help!

I’m the Only Lolita Here - To prepare for the event, I planned out my lolita coordinate, brushed out my wig, and wrapped my handmade exchange gift. When the date of the event came, I doubled checked the time and location for the event and made my way to the meet! When I arrived, I adjusted some of the final touches of my coordinate, grabbed my camera and swap present, and made my way into the local museum. No one was there. Well, there weren't any other Lolitas that I could see. The staff member I spoke to was very kind. He explained he had not seen anyone that was dressed in a similar fashion to me. Perhaps the other members were running late. I quickly checked my phone and discovered that there were some unexpected events that would prevent anyone else from attending the meet. I froze. I was already at the meet-up location and none of the other members would be attending. All I could think was, "What do I do now?" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/69271098-f62d-45c8-828d-b613ba06a420/Untitled+design+%2894%29.png Lolita Blog - Help!

You are excited about this event, so enjoy it! If you can, connect with some of your non-Lolita fashion friends or family to see if they are in the area and would like to join you. You never know, you might make someone's day and your own! Take your time and enjoy the experience. If it is allowed, take photos of the area. Ask a staff member to take a photo of your coordinate! This way, you are able to share the fun experience with the other members of your in-person community.

International Lolita Day is a special day for the members of our lolita fashion community. It is a day in which we celebrate this expressive and stunning Japanese fashion. Many Lolitas find this day as a great excuse to wear special coordinates! Lolitas may partake in lolita friendly activities or attend lolita fashion meet-ups. Many times, these events are held in a special place and/or have a theme. When is ILD? Instead of just one day to officially enjoy lolita fashion, we have two days a year! International Lolita Day is celebrated on the first Saturday of June and again on the first Saturday of December. Not only do we have two excuses a year to dress our best, but we have two seasons to do so as well! This way, most of the world can participate in a lolita holiday in summer and in the winter season. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/377f38ae-4a00-43d2-8c63-2616b479d42b/Maison-de-Julietta-Harajuku-Lolita-037-600x400.jpg Lolita Blog - What is International Lolita Day - As I select a dress and make the initial preparations for this upcoming Saturday, I can scarcely contain my excitement! In celebration of International Lolita Day, my local community is meeting in a charming town for a decorated tree festival, lunch at a cafe, and a gift swap. I realize that there may be new members that may not know if this special day. I hope this blog post explains the significance of this semi-annual tradition. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/35ceff74-a2bf-4dbe-ac55-2fd8fff8df3c/maison-de-julietta-harajuku-lolita-035_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - What is International Lolita Day - Is there a proper way to celebrate? You should enjoy lolita in whatever way you would like or what is realistic for you. I myself have had a wide range of ways to commemorate this day. On days that I have had to work in the past, I have watched Kamikaze Girls or have purchased from an online lolita shop. Other times, I have been able to take part in picturesque photos shoots, picnics on a grassy knoll, and high tea events! International Lolita Day is an excuse to enjoy the fashion you love and there are hundreds of other Lolitas who are celebrating with you in spirit.

Is there anything in your wardrobe that you haven't worn? Of course not! I usually buy lolita items well after I need them. I always use them when they arrive. 10. What is missing from your lolita wardrobe? I need to add quite a few items to my wardrobe. I need an additional petticoat, a pink blouse, an off-white blouse, another pink jumperskirt, a pink winter coat, a pair of tall winter boots and more bags. 11. When will your lolita wardrobe be complete? Never! I am certain new designs and prints will make their way into my wardrobe. This fashion allows and inspires changes I grow with this beautiful fashion style, and I do not want to be limited by the main pieces and accessories that are present in my wardrobe at a specific point in time. 12. What was the last lolita item you sold or threw away? I sold a lovely chiffon lolita blouse that I had bought from my-lolita-dress.com. The measurements were incorrect. Thankfully the piece made it's way to another Lolita's collection and it fit her just fine! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f68247e0-23a5-440d-b795-990daf24e2fd/Maison-de-Julietta-Harajuku-Lolita-040.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-now-for-a-fun-and-informative-lol-wardrobe-survey">And Now for a Fun and Informative Lolita Wardrobe Survey!</a> - 1. Do you still own the first lolita item that you bought? No, I no longer own my first lolita piece. The first lolita piece I purchased was a "lolita" piece from eBay. The material, lace, and ribbon details were of a decent quality, but the dress had been assembled with black thread. It would be a better costume piece, rather than an addition to my lolita wardrobe. I ended up getting rid of the piece to make room for true lolita wardrobe pieces. 2. What is the oldest lolita piece in your wardrobe? Technically, the oldest piece I own is a Baby, the Stars Shine Bright parasol that a friend purchased for me in Japan. The oldest lolita clothing piece I own would by my Bodyline jumperskirt l348 in pink. 3. What is the newest lolita piece in your wardrobe? My most recent lolita wardrobe addition would by my Angelic Pretty Melty Cream Doughnut jumperskirt. I was a dream dress of mine for years, so I am ecstatic that I was able to purchase it! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/imgvdk8shzktoqge808pos1735bq1l monthly 0.5 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3badd514-74de-4cbc-990d-88b968e2524d/Untitled+design+%2858%29.png Lolita Blog - My Tips &amp; Tricks for Lolita Anxiety - Maintaining Your Online Presence Share Now that you have posted in your community and have gained some confidence, post some more simple posts!

You need to love what you do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/760769c1-48f5-4315-b3b1-06c9790708f0/Untitled+design+%2892%29.jpg Lolita Blog - My Tips &amp; Tricks for Lolita Anxiety - I really love lolita, but... I have come across many people that confess that they are interested in lolita, but they hesitate to join any lolita community. Just the thought of posting on an online forum, posting a photo of a lolita coordinate, or attending a meet makes them very nervous. A common fear that many people may have is how they will be treated by other members of the lolita community. This is a more common concern than you may know, and one that even a seasoned Lolita may have from time to time. In this post, I will share my tips and suggestions on how to become an active member of the lolita community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ad5f5666-471c-4735-8a26-15186b8ce51d/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T193047.144.jpg Lolita Blog - My Tips &amp; Tricks for Lolita Anxiety - Like Other Member's Posts Your fellow Lolita co-members are already posting photos, blog posts, polls and videos in your group. A simple 'like' on their posts is a great way to get your username out there and participate! Comment On Other Member's Posts Comment on your fellow Lolita's posts! If you like a coordinate that someone has posted, say so and why you like it! If they post with a general question that you can easily answer, such as "How did you discover lolita" feel free to answer. If the website or application allows, follow your favorite co-members. This will make it so you can easily see more content from the users that you follow. This ultimately will give you more opportunities to interact with these interactive posts in the future. 3. Creating Content Publish A Post Make an introductory post about yourself! You can share what style of lolita is your favorite, what your favorite lolita clothing brand, is and how long you have been in lolita. Keep your post simple. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/dff89d45-bb51-4f05-ac2b-abd62d6ed58e/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-09T222657.671.png Lolita Blog - My Tips &amp; Tricks for Lolita Anxiety - Anxiety is Completely Normal First of all, it is completely normal to be anxious about participating and sharing a hobby! In a visual hobby like lolita fashion, appearance is rather important. While it is a hobby that celebrates individualism, many of the best aspects of fashion are enhanced by the in person and online lolita community presence. Any anxiety you experience may originate from a variety of concerns. What if I say or type something silly? What if the community dislikes my Lolita coordinates? What if I make a mistake? What if I am teased? What if I embarrass myself? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/650006e7-66d8-4e8a-89ab-b4ce076bef52/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T192008.423.png Lolita Blog - My Tips &amp; Tricks for Lolita Anxiety - Take It One Step at a Time Take a deep breath. There is no need to jump into everything right away. It is important to know your personal strengths and weaknesses before you dive into your first component of the community. While it is helpful to go at your own pace, a key element of this fashion is to go outside of your comfort zone. Without venturing outside of your comfort zone, you'll never be able to progress. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b1f65baa-7f3e-4c5c-9291-48f12eeead85/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T190603.436.png Lolita Blog - My Tips &amp; Tricks for Lolita Anxiety - 1. Join a Community Join a lolita fashion community. There are many lolita communities to choose from on a variety of places. A few popular places to connect with other Lolitas include: Amino, Facebook and EGL. What you need to look for in a community before you join are that the group has simple rules, has easy requirements, and is friendly to new Lolitas. A group that requires you to submit full coordinates to be added, demands a specific post count, or requires you to participate in a weekly challenge is most likely not the best selection for your first community. Select a group and place that works for you. 2. Participate and Post Before you even consider adding content to your community, participate in what is already there! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/mgbmy0we6ixmng518l1aysu4olzq6n monthly 0.5 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0f151e49-947f-45d7-996a-aff44b161ddb/16-9-22-206-1.png Lolita Blog - Holy Lantern and Little Devil’s Emblem Comparison - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/fe4314c0-8784-48e4-a51d-88d98845ba86/Untitled+design+%2856%29.png Lolita Blog - Holy Lantern and Little Devil’s Emblem Comparison - So cute, it’s scary!

Each print features the elements of lanterns with bat wings, crescent moons, crosses, and candles. ✠ A Similar Colorway Angelic Pretty's Holy Lantern series produced multiple colorway options.

As an alternative fashion style, it is easy to see that lolita fashion is unique. The overall feminine, modest, and carefully coordinated outfits truly make a statement. Especially when compared to mainstream western fashion styles, there are a few details that set lolita fashion apart. A-line or bell-shaped silhouettes Uniquely Rococo and Victorian inspired pieces Bold storytelling prints Well-made pieces High-quality materials Some additional attributes that set lolita apart for me personally involve the creative freedom that is available. I adore the fact that I can accessories so completely with lolita. I also appreciate that I am able to play with multiple patterns and colors with a single complete lolita outfit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/214d459a-1df3-41cf-be2f-4f7575d59ed5/image+%282%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - How Old is Too Old for Lolita; an Opinion by a Tricenarian - I do not believe someone is to anything for lolita fashion, least of all for something as trivial as your age. I have seen mothers who coordinate with their young daughters. I have seen grandmothers create elegant and impressive Lolita looks, and young women still in high school enter the fashion. Life is far too short to wear conventional clothing. My personality fits the lolita aesthetic very well, especially Sweet lolita. While I may age into a more Classic Lolita fashion style or a more mature Sweet Lolita style, I cannot see this transformation occurring any time soon. lolita is all about expression. The ability to wear such feminine, sweet and cute clothes brings me great happiness! I believe this is infectious. Many times, the reactions to my clothing style are overwhelmingly positive! I believe that confidence is key. If you are confident in your clothes, people can pick up on that assurance. If someone feels that you are too, well anything, to do what you love then ignore them. There are far too many people out there in the world who will support you for your courage and creativity. Surround yourself with people who inspire, respect, drive, support and empower you! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7e62222a-703a-4b93-93b6-84a519c3793f/23031502-10104527658313299-6454578323580155611-n_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - How Old is Too Old for Lolita; an Opinion by a Tricenarian - As the date of my birthday ebbed closer, this topic began to creep into my mind. Apparently, a few other Lolitas in the online community are revisiting this topic as well. The questions are: How old is too old? Is there an expiration date for this fashion? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a3efed01-9185-4627-abd3-ecfe5f02dd33/image+%288%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - How Old is Too Old for Lolita; an Opinion by a Tricenarian - In conclusion Do what you love and what makes you happy. Your choice of style is not going to harm anyone. If this means that you will wear over the top Sweet Lolita for the rest of your life, then do it! While I share that vision, I do realize that fashion is changing and evolving. If I evolve and I wish to take a different turn with similar styles, those desires will be based on my personal journey, but not my age. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694906002339-2UFM2MMCSUXRMRSN7KB1/9b68d2e3dfc0fbb6c1246d2ce004081d-navy-spring-dresses-spring-photography.png Lolita Blog - How Old is Too Old for Lolita; an Opinion by a Tricenarian https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694906174572-FMAMB6QZW9O0QX6I25Q1/83734951ec2639e5b2fea3ac4dedbaec.png Lolita Blog - How Old is Too Old for Lolita; an Opinion by a Tricenarian https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694906003253-MQXSFPYVW3503ZXH9W3H/ff83bc401476e6c27e2aeeeaedbfd48f.png Lolita Blog - How Old is Too Old for Lolita; an Opinion by a Tricenarian https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/tisfylhztd8k3v65ifyi8mrriubwa9 monthly 0.5 2023-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ce95d00f-862f-4a7c-89cc-fa7c7842e4c5/dscn4647-5_orig.png Lolita Blog - Halloween, a Lolita’s Excuse for Frilly Fun - My recent wardrobe addition of Sweet Cherry Deer by Souffle Song was automatically my costume inspiration this year.

With the dresses, blouses, bows, hats, boleros, petticoats, wig, hair clips and jewelry options, it is almost too easy to add new items to a lolita wardrobe! The issue is not what to add, it is when. Sometimes the things we have wanted the longest give way to other priorities. The item I have wanted the longest has still not been purchased! What item would that be you ask? I'll tell you! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/03a15b25-8062-45b0-9c0d-9df07e37c6ac/TK-2015-08-01-005-006-Harajuku.jpg Lolita Blog - Why Haven’t I Purchased This Yet? - It's not a dress, or a skirt... The lolita fashion item that I have wanted for the longest is the Ribbon Heart Bag by Baby, the Stars Shine Bright. This is an item that has existed for many of the years that I have been interested in lolita fashion. This bag, to me, is a timeless addition to a lolita wardrobe. It's a simple heart shape, laced edges, ribbon and elegantly sculpted handles give me such a wave of cute coordinate inspiration and nostalgia. Why haven't I purchased this piece yet? There isn't an excuse for not buying this piece aside from one thing: wardrobe expansion. In my desire to build my wardrobe with all the necessary lolita essentials, I have delayed adding this item to my collection. I still need a few more essentials. These include petticoats, blouses, skirts, dresses, and basic bags before I add another adorable, shaped purse to my collection. Thankfully, it does not appear that this popular and iconic bag will be discontinued anytime soon! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/mpjx9nsk9e4ec7guzt5sitwtmywebd monthly 0.5 2023-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b8e19d16-8b67-4f38-9e48-050b546da7eb/lol_2_orig.png Lolita Blog - My Favorite Lolita-Friendly Games - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1e973d0e-13ac-4dce-af5e-47cc0954a37d/trim_1.png Lolita Blog - My Favorite Lolita-Friendly Games - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ea3e4272-54a5-4a76-a408-c57dc5860a90/tumblr-static-tumblr-static-filename-640_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - My Favorite Lolita-Friendly Games - CocoPPa Play is a dress up game available for IOS and Android.

Use A Shopping Service In order to order from multiple lolita sources, such as Taobao and mbok, a shopping service is required. A shopping service is an individual or a third-party that purchases the items you'd like from a country limited marketplace on your behalf for a small fee. Through lolita, I have learned how to use a shopping service for Chinese and Japanese exclusive websites! Just as the ability to order from multiple platforms, knowing who you need to assist you in order to buy from these places is key! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bb81b56a-1a58-4c83-b030-67986eeab4dd/1495705294+%282%29.jpg Lolita Blog - 5 Skills I have Because of Lolita Fashion - 4. Know the Quality of Materials Online Or, at least be able to tell the quality of good quality material from one of poor quality. No one wants a petticoat that is itchy or terrible quality lace. After all, lolita fashion is all about decadence! We cannot have some poorly constructed costume grade lace ruin what appeared to be a lovely new blouse. When I purchase new lolita pieces, or even material in order to make small accessories, I scrutinize the material before I add it to my cart. Of course, the ability is also something that I can use for all my other hobbies! From the fabric for crafts and cosplay costumes to doll clothes, the ability to discern the poor-quality items from those of a higher standard is a useful skill indeed! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4741c93e-1a5a-4936-8498-672efabca149/image+%286%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - 5 Skills I have Because of Lolita Fashion - 3. Sew The ability to be able to sew is something that I have always wanted to do, but never had the patience to start. This is difficult to understand because my mother is a professional seamstress. I would make small things, such as outfits for my Barbie dolls, and school projects, but nothing that was serious. Once I became interested in lolita, the desire to actually learn how to sew grew. I began with easy tasks, such as reattaching buttons. Now, I can make small accessories that I can be proud of! While I am far from being able to create my own full lolita clothing pieces, I am off to a great start! The am happy to have the ability to sew small projects for my ball-jointed-dolls and the ability to fix and create aspects of my cosplay. This is a skill that can be used over many aspects of my life! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/84dc931c-7398-4b9d-9a83-f4e8a6ba9e6f/image+%284%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - 5 Skills I have Because of Lolita Fashion - 5. Create Online Content In my opinion, this is, by far, the most impressive skill that I have learned from lolita fashion. I create and maintain my own online content. I maintain a fashion blog, this website, and create and edit my own YouTube videos. All these interests have required me to learn quite a few special skills! I started my fashion blog on Blogger originally. While the online portion was a learning curve, Blogger gave me a safe and free platform to hone my editing and writing skills. Once I felt that I had exhausted what Blogger had to offer, I turned my attention to the creation of my personal website. I wanted to have one website that would be able to house all my various interests and my all-important fashion blog. With the help of Weebly, I edited and created this website. I had only done minor changes and updates to websites for family, so this was an extreme test of my determination! Once the website had been created and finished, I continued to maintain this lolita fashion blog. Since the blog has been active for over two years, I must admit that it is a personal success! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/20c5b6de-159f-4620-b7fc-1b427f1f7042/1495705294.jpg Lolita Blog - 5 Skills I have Because of Lolita Fashion - Upon self-reflection, it’s always surprising to me how much I have learned from lolita fashion. That is to say, there are a great many things that I have learned in regard to the fashion, which is especially true in relation to my own lolita style. In addition to this progression, there are quite a few handy life skills that I have perfected over the years. Many of these abilities stem directly from my interest in lolita fashion. Here are five helpful skills that I may have never learned without the pursuit of lolita fashion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/474d2dcd-7d1e-464e-bd09-820978d09290/image+%285%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - 5 Skills I have Because of Lolita Fashion - 1. Buy from Multiple Platforms An interest in lolita, since it is such a niche fashion, encourages a person to pursuit multiple stores. This is the only way to obtain fashion related and unique pieces. As a beginner lolita, I was careful to buy from approved sources. The shops were straight forward to order from. Each beginner order from easy-to-use sources, such as Etsy, Bodyline, and MintyMix, gave me the confidence to buy from more complicated sources. Now, I can say that I know how to order from lolita brand name lolita shops, Taobao, and third-party Taobao websites. These shops are also handy places to find components for my other hobbies, and my friends are thankful for this great knowledge as well! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/xxzuskhbbj6ewshd0dpuwz7r2wt2y2 monthly 0.5 2023-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/32bc31e3-fd3b-4914-8850-83c299e48078/G.png Lolita Blog - Tutorial: How to Buy From Taobao - 7.

While not all their pieces are available for this service, the fact that SouffleSong offers such a service is an immense perk for those of us who need custom dimensions. I contacted SouffleSong to ask which pieces could be custom-sized. They responded saying they would no longer be offering a custom size.

While both styles are not ones that I personally am interested in wearing, it was refreshing to see. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bbf8a1f2-df6f-4251-a946-0849af9d0403/2.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/gothic-lolita-bible-magazine-review">Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible</a>, Final Edition - This is perhaps my favorite spread in the entire magazine. Not only are these Angelic Pretty prints stunning, but they feature one of my favorite lolita print themes, fruit! The cuteness of these prints is only enhanced by the pink and white adorable kitchen in which the models reside. I cannot get over how adorable the redness of the strawberries and cherries are against the pastel surroundings! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/cb6fc019-0aea-4b91-95d2-64148ec3213f/5.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/gothic-lolita-bible-magazine-review">Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible</a>, Final Edition - We were completely spoiled in this issue regarding patterns! Included in the magazine are multiple do-it-yourself projects, which include directions to create a pannier and a headbow. Perhaps the pannier would be a challenge to adjust to multiple sizes, but the headbow should be simple enough! If I create an item from these patterns, I will be sure to share the completed piece on this blog. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3cf2c8eb-4dc9-444c-be6f-61fde7eb04ff/untitled-1_1.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/gothic-lolita-bible-magazine-review">Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible</a>, Final Edition - The coordinates in this issue are stunning! I love all the current fashion trends that are represented. I am a huge fan of the Classic Sweet Lolita style. I am also a huge sucker for fruits, printed ribbons, and galaxy prints. I would be hard pressed to find a Sweet coordinate in this magazine I do not like! Each page of the magazine is a vibrant display of full coordinates and charming accessories. One of my favorite aspects of the Gothic & Lolita Bible is the unique ability to transform you into an almost magical world of opportunity. This is due to the elaborate and captivating photo sets that the brand used in to showcase their recent lolita releases. The models who are able to take part are fortunate! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/77f737b6-279f-42f8-986a-8f2ec2a587be/dscn4066.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/gothic-lolita-bible-magazine-review">Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible</a>, Final Edition - Street snaps are my favorite part of the Gothic & Lolita Bible! It is always nice to see what other lolitas are wearing, especially in the fashion's origin of Tokyo, Japan. It is a silent and welcome reminder that there are others who represent this expressive and elegant style worldwide every day! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4536e6df-7409-4dee-a7ec-3fa8a1676134/dscn4046_2.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/gothic-lolita-bible-magazine-review">Gothic &amp; Lolita Bible</a>, Final Edition - I was so happy to see such diversity in the lolita coordinates featured.

Quite simply, excitement! Perhaps the greatest question of all would be, am I more excited for my cosplay, or my lolita coordinate? If I am excited for a specific costume or coordinate, well, the answer is rather obvious! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c0ba7dba-ee20-4844-b330-cc78ff7116e0/kicm-1487-1200x1200-75.jpg Lolita Blog - Cosplay Or Lolita Fashion, The Continuous Convention Conundrum</a> - Anime and gaming conventions are a fantastic opportunity and excuse to dress up, purchase some awesome gear, and to connect with others who love these interest in addition to Japanese pop culture. When I attend conventions, I have been extremely fortunate to be able to connect with anime lovers and lolita fashionistas alike! As I plan my panel and meet up schedule, one question is the most important of all the rest. The question is: Should I wear cosplay, or lolita? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b4875928-f1ca-45b6-89e9-f6e09aa81891/kashawn-hernandez-NUAwBu2Nh7I-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Cosplay Or Lolita Fashion, The Continuous Convention Conundrum</a> - 4. What is my crew up to? Conventions allow me to hang out with some of my greatest and dearest friends! I must ask what are my friends up to? Do we have a group cosplay planned? Will my friends be in lolita coordinates, or will I have an opportunity to twin with another lolita? How absolutely exciting! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1b5aea98-014b-4493-95da-c27ddc58b4f3/dex-ezekiel-IxDPZ-AHfoI-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Cosplay Or Lolita Fashion, The Continuous Convention Conundrum</a> - 2. What's on the Agenda? What panels and events are going on the day when I will be at the convention? Are there any particular panels that are of interest to me? Are there any lolita related panels or meets? What cosplay events will occur? Will there be any lolita or cosplay related photo shoots on site? All of these questions will help to determine if a lolita coordinate or a costume would be a good fit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/698e5dcf-e2a0-471a-a7fd-a0aa894b146d/zac-wolff-uuwA21vmI3o-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Cosplay Or Lolita Fashion, The Continuous Convention Conundrum</a> - 1. It's all about the location! When I plan to attend a convention, it is always important to note where the convention will take place. How far is the convention that I would like to attend? Is it a convention where I can dress up for in the morning? Is the convention far away? Will I have to pack an overnight bag, or a bag for several days since the event is across such a great distance? This information is extremely vital when I plan to wear an elaborate costume, or require space in my suitcase for a petticoat or two! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bd2f1f7d-348f-43bd-b0ec-a3982f88afd5/barry-x28fSw4N7sY-unsplash.jpg Lolita Blog - Cosplay Or Lolita Fashion, The Continuous Convention Conundrum</a> - 3. How many opportunities Exist? I ask myself, how many opportunities will I get the chance to wear cosplay? Will I be able to attend multiple conventions this year? Will there be any cosplay meet-ups in my area? How active has my local lolita fashion group been? Since I have an active fashion group, as well as plenty of weekends that provide as an excuse to wear my favorite street fashion, these questions often are pro cosplay. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/x1mxbbzbrdd55yftjr8462tbzwx50a monthly 0.5 2023-09-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a50a3612-5404-4a34-87a8-2b01d37a8c6d/alice-in-wonderland-full-1903198_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/5-inspirational-characters-for-lolita">5 Inspirational Characters for Lolita</a> - Alice Liddell, Alice in Wonderland For me, Alice is an obvious choice for an inspirational fictional character in regard to lolita fashion. Her 1865 style fashion is a wonderful and continuous source for wardrobe creativity. In addition to being one of the most well-known influences of lolita fashion, she is adorable. Alice's Head eating bow, full dress and apron are such a good fit for lolita. Her adventures in Wonderland, and the colorful cast of characters, makes Alice is an excellent addition to my fictional character arsenal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5683c4f9-c1a9-46a8-ab77-6f837d7c1ec6/for-site2.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/5-inspirational-characters-for-lolita">5 Inspirational Characters for Lolita</a> - Hitomi Destiny, Keep a Fallen Star Hitomi is my adored Obitsu doll, and the mascot of my online shop Keep A Fallen Star™.

In the past, I was an avid role-playing enthusiast. One of the characters I created and wrote for was a young man by the name Leigh. Leigh is passionate about many various hobbies, however, his most adored hobby by far is lolita fashion. He lives and breathes for the latest Baby, the Stars Shine Bright and Alice and the Pirates designs. While I no longer role-play this character online, I find myself constantly creating lolita outfits that would be his lolita style rather than my own, as well as expanding the items in his current wardrobe.

As part of the Grimm's Fairy Tale collection published originally in 1812, I always envisioned these famous maidens in fantastic medieval Elizabethan gowns, high collars and their garments littered with accents of glittering gems. Of course, the maidens would have elements of white and red roses that would adorn their gowns. The romanticism of the fictional stories, coupled with the era in which they allegedly took place, is a constant influence and opportunity for me to draw inspiration from. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c604d19c-bb37-4951-a581-b050b5a8968b/34946a143f98e6159b488ea9bf9492f7_1.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/5-inspirational-characters-for-lolita">5 Inspirational Characters for Lolita</a> - Ciel Phantomhive, Kuroshitsuji, Black Butler I cannot get over how fantastic kodona, also known as lolita boy style, is. I love each element that the sub-style incorporates, from the style shorts and vests to the elaborate gloves and hats. While I have not ventured into kodona style yet, it is a sub-style that I admire greatly. The most iconic fictional character for this lolita style would have to be Ciel Phantomhive from Kuroshitsuji. The young master has some serious fashion sense. I cannot get over how fantastic each one of Ciel's completed outfits is!

I am quite a colorful person. I have a wide range of interests and various ways that I express myself. Lolita Fashion has been a part of my identity for quite some time, but I have not thought about how integral lolita fashion is in my life until now! To say lolita fashion is just an aspect of my life would be a bit of an understatement. Curious to learn the specifics? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1fc47c2d-dc49-4ddd-9a95-e6138968f4df/image+%284%29.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion as Part of My Identity</a> - 2. When I have to hide my fashion I have a lot of interests. Many times, however, these hobbies are not topics I speak of in certain social situations. These feelings are completely normal, even if it feels uncomfortable or awkward at times. Regardless, I have grown when it comes to sharing my fashion with others. While it is much easier to answer inquiries when I am dressed in the fashion, I do not have an opportunity to wear lolita around the people I converse with on a day-to-day basis. Between my blog, business and YouTube channel, it is difficult to hide my passion from everyone. Now that I have become more secure with myself, I find that the ability to open and speak about my interest in J-fashion is much easier! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6c1f86e5-a625-4c26-b32c-a4f42bc7255d/1495705294+%281%29.jpg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion as Part of My Identity</a> - 1. Lolita is a huge part of my life! Lolita fashion is a huge part of my life. Much of my spare time involves lolita fashion in some capacity. In addition to this blog and my YouTube channel, many of my other activities center around lolita. I draw it, dress my dolls in it, and create my own jewelry and charm pieces to compliment my wardrobe. When I have a few free minutes, I often check on the latest items being sold on ClosetChild, LaceMarket and brand name online Lolita shops. My most used smartphone application in addition to Twitter and YouTube is Amino, as I am very involved with multiple lolita groups there! I love this fashion. I love being able to see other people's coordinates, searching for new accessories, and learn about the latest releases. I teach myself new skills, such as photography and sewing, to enjoy my passion for lolita fashion even more! The ability to express myself so loudly with my distinctive clothes is a wonderful and fantastic opportunity that I cherish! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c63177c4-9f0c-4c77-9cec-c2c461edc41b/image.jpeg Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion as Part of My Identity</a> - 3. Lolita does not define me I am a lot of things, in addition to being a lolita. I am a lolita, cosplayer, artist, writer, business owner, video-game enthusiast, otaku, BJD collector, fiancee, daughter, disney enthusiast and more. While lolita has been and will continue to play an important role in my life, I have many titles that reflect what my interests are and, while lolita may be the hobby I am most passionate about, it does not define me. I am so much more than just a Sweet Lolita. If I ever decided to move past my interest in lolita fashion, I would still be my own creative, quirky, romantic, magical and girly self. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bx2iru2eryg4z6rcvo89bu3cmc9bia monthly 0.5 2023-09-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/104f1f5a-4875-4e38-974c-86a46673cc62/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T190335.026.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/how-i-escape-a-wardrobe-slump">How I Escape a Wardrobe Slump</a> - Lay it all Out. When you find yourself in a wardrobe slump, it is always a good idea to take inventory of your apparel. I find that, when you have all of your items laid out, it is easier to assess where the gaps in your wardrobe exist. For my last wardrobe slump, I laid out all of my apparel items onto my bed so I would be able to assess where I could improve my overall collection. Ask yourself: ✓ What is my wardrobe lacking? ✓ Where can I improve? ✓ What items do I wear the least? ✓ What can I add in order to assist this? These questions will help you figure out what you can do to free yourself from your slump! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7dc0b631-1f6b-4e56-b2b5-568a763ce56d/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-09T222657.671.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/how-i-escape-a-wardrobe-slump">How I Escape a Wardrobe Slump</a> - 1. What is my wardrobe lacking? Honestly, my wardrobe is lacking in quite a few areas. While I have a very good start to a lolita wardrobe, I could use additional pieces. Another petticoat and more long-sleeved blouses would be nice. Another short-sleeved blouse, a few boleros, and some more bloomers would be good, too! 2. Where can I improve? A lolita winter coat and winter boots would be a place to begin, as I do not have any yet. These additions would help to build my wardrobe and allow me to wear lolita clothes in all seasons. Of course, I would like some extra dresses, solid and printed. Additionally, all the dresses I have are of a lightweight, and I could use some heavier pieces. There is always room for improvement! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/72722c08-00a1-4c2c-84a0-090865e8772e/Untitled+design+%2896%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/how-i-escape-a-wardrobe-slump">How I Escape a Wardrobe Slump</a> - 3. What items do I wear the least? It appears that I do not wear all of my items equally. Out of all of my items, I wear my Precious Clove, Letters To My Dear Lolita Jumperskirt and my handmade skirt least. The skirt is understandable. I prefer jumperskirts and one-piece dresses rather than lolita skirts. As a woman with a bust, I find that dresses minimize that particular area much better than a skirt. I have been unable to find a blouse that I am comfortable wearing with a skirt. As for my lovely Precious Clove dress, the dress features an ivory lace. I rarely it because I do not own an off-white or ivory blouse to accompany it. 4. What can I add to fix this? Why order more items of course! I do very well with the items I do have, to be sure, but new items would be a great addition. The first items that I would need to order would include a bright white blouse and a long-sleeved ivory blouse. Since I plan to order these particular items from Bunny House, I could also order a few boleros and other lolita essentials at the same time -- bonus! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b699c1ae-956b-43fd-b928-34eab7f5b872/image_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/how-i-escape-a-wardrobe-slump">How I Escape a Wardrobe Slump</a> There comes a point in your lolita journey where you feel at a loss with your current wardrobe. This realization can be due to several reasons. Perhaps you have not added anything new in quite some time, or maybe the items in your wardrobe are of a varied color pallet. Whatever the reason, sometimes a change, is just what the fashion stylist ordered!

At a lolita meet you can often discuss recent dress releases, trade accessories and apparel and show of your lolita coordinate. Many times, meetups have a common goal or theme, such as a twinning challenge or a swap meet. Each experience is different, and I truly enjoy being able to participate in my local lolita gatherings! Before You Go... Your first meetup is a lot of fun to attend, and it is an experience many continue to treasure. You may be excited, nervous, or a strange combination of the two. These feelings are completely natural. Before you attend your meetup, there are a few things you may want to check off your to-do list. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/093d141a-c0cf-4f20-b11e-5b778bd55de9/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T190603.436.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/your-first-lol-meet-up-what-to-expect-and-how-to-make-it-a-success">Your First Lolita Meetup; What to Expect and How to Make it a Success</a>. - 2. Connect with Someone New If you attend a meetup with another Lolita that you know, or even just a friend for moral support, be sure to strike up a conversation with someone new! One of the perks of an in-person lolita meetup is to see new faces, build beginning relationships and forge new friendships. Do not ignore your friend by any means but do allow yourself to remain open to new conversations and new potential friends. 3. Be Polite Mind your manners! As with all social events do be sure to implement all of the lessons you have been taught by your parents. No one enjoys someone who comes across as rude or inconsiderate. Have Fun! Most importantly, have fun! Be yourself, meet new people and enjoy the bustle of a frilly group! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/c9ee0b09-6096-4433-a459-1d1a008dc713/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T185840.307.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/your-first-lol-meet-up-what-to-expect-and-how-to-make-it-a-success">Your First Lolita Meetup; What to Expect and How to Make it a Success</a>. - 2. Plan Your Visit It is a lolita meetup, so lolita fashion is preferable and the most fun! Lolita is fun to wear among others in frilly attire. Select a coordinate to showcase your most recent dress or your favorite skirt. Choose a coordinate that will complement the theme of the meetup. Be sure to pay attention to every aspect of your appearance also, as you will want to make a favorable impression. If you do not have lolita style clothes to wear, do not fret! Many times, people who are interested in the fashion attend meetups. This is especially so if the meetup is open to the public and if it is not a gathering for a specified event or theme. Feel free to dress on the nicer side. A simple blouse paired with a nice pair of pants or a skirt will allow you to blend with the other members of the gathering. This is especially important for group photographs or videos. Either way, be sure to dress your best! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/199575f8-48a8-4390-ad8a-7aa1aab9c9df/Untitled+design+%2897%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/your-first-lol-meet-up-what-to-expect-and-how-to-make-it-a-success">Your First Lolita Meetup; What to Expect and How to Make it a Success</a>. - 1. Strike Up a Conversation The largest aspect of the meetup is to mingle with others who adore the same fashion that you do. This gathering allows you to meet new people, forge new friendships, and chat about the fashion trends, name brand releases, or the latest lolita-related news! Do you need a few ideas to strike up a conversation? Here are some statements to get you started! Compliment a fellow Lolita on their coordinate Compliment a fellow Lolita on aspects of their coordinate Inquire what brand a fellow Lolita's dress is from Inquire the title of a fellow Lolita's dress Inquire where your fellow Lolita purchased various aspects of their coordinate Ask a fellow Lolita about their thoughts on a particular recent dress release Ask a fellow Lolita if they where they prefer to acquire items (Taobao, brand, Lace Market) Inquire what online communities the fellow Lolita is a part of https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9f0bc391-1d76-4c2f-9636-d0a7f3b7d3b6/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T190335.026.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/your-first-lol-meet-up-what-to-expect-and-how-to-make-it-a-success">Your First Lolita Meetup; What to Expect and How to Make it a Success</a>. - 3. Pack Your Essentials In addition to your coordinate, there are additional items that you may need. Some of these articles may include your wallet, a parasol, car keys, camera, cellphone, comb, small emergency sewing kit, required papers such as a ticket or receipt to attend a special event and networking business cards. At The Meet Up No doubt you have planned this day out to the finest detail. As you secure your final shoe strap and curl the friendly spiral around your awaiting finger, you can scarcely wait to arrive at the lolita meet! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d360ef1e-dc40-4f1c-b520-f45aac6e8183/Untitled+design+%2890%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/your-first-lol-meet-up-what-to-expect-and-how-to-make-it-a-success">Your First Lolita Meetup; What to Expect and How to Make it a Success</a>. - 1. Connect with the meetup coordinator. It is always a good idea to be in touch with the person who is coordinating the event. The host of the meet will be able to provide you with the details and agenda of the event. This is helpful knowledge to plan your attendance and ensure you have a good understanding of the meetup. The meetup host will be able to express any cost that may incur for the meet as well. If the gathering has a special theme, such as an old school coordinate challenge or a twinning event, the person who is in charge of organizing the event will be able to express the details. For special events, the meetup coordinator can share a general cost for the gathering. Some events may include a specified event, cafe, or restaurant. If you can attend a special meetup, it is always best to share that you will be there sooner rather than later. Many times, special events need an accurate headcount and pre-payment for your attendance. The more accurate the number of the attendees, and the funds to secure the event, the better! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/cr5ri1jff77zrcxzq99inosylywsna monthly 0.5 2023-09-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3ec336e3-a4b1-4c61-8944-6e5aa9d593d9/fb.png Lolita Blog - My Favorite Lolita Hair Accessory - There are numerous items to choose from when it comes to lolita hair accessories, including headdresses, hair bows, hair clips, barrettes, bonnets, crowns, hair pins, hats, half-bonnets, headbands, berets, ribbons, earmuffs and even more!

HypnoticSweetTreats This lovely oversize lolita hair bow, by HypnoticSweetTreats on Etsy, is a wonderful addition to my lolita accessories! This bow is so versatile that I can often wear it to the side of my head, as pictured above, or centered. I adore how charming this item is.

This particular piece matches many of the apparel items that I have in my wardrobe, especially my Angelic Pretty items. The pearl accents represented in the bow are one of the sweetest accents of the piece and allows for me to utilize them in coordinates. I feel that hair bows are the signature feature for a Sweet Lolita, especially when it comes to this bow! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/064ab653-2674-4978-9bbf-abe623312ca6/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-09T091428.346.png Lolita Blog - My Favorite Lolita Hair Accessory - Baby, the Stars Shine Bright The Classical Rosy Head Bow by Baby, the Stars Shine Bright is such a charming piece. The white lace rose details on the pink grosgrain ribbon are such a gentle and classic touch. I love the ability to incorporate a floral theme into a coordinate with ease!

This blouse can be paired with a lolita skirt as a complimentary companion piece, particularly with the larger row of ruffles at the bottom of the blouse. The blouse is intricate enough to be a piece of interest when coupled with a skirt or a great layered article underneath a lolita jumperskirt. The versatility is great! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b08782a4-e3f6-48a1-bc1a-bb66914c6d0b/dscn1991_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - Each purse is constructed of a quality synthetic leather. A few of the aspects of the bag are cemented together by a yellow glue. I was able to clean the residue with a damp cloth and warm water. The purses feature an attachable clasp with adjustable straps. You can have your doll hold the bag with the middle strap or make it a shoulder bag with the attachable strap. Both styles are lovely. The attachable strap can be removed and place inside of the structurally sound purse if desired. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4f9c3fbd-6315-45fd-b372-af66d0a023b9/onnoble-sports_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694264202332-MNFX260NGR8WZ1V6JTCI/dscn2006_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694264200230-QZBWR1R9TDH282J4MX46/dscn2003_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694264202136-99SKSV228L9STKE3RULO/dscn2005_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694264198529-Q3IC0YI01V59ZZAOU015/dscn1995_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694264200160-VTSQSTE2AMDYMOMWW78O/dscn1997_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1694264198237-7Q93L88NZ7DCHY6T1BOW/01-2.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2ea64c3a-94ce-4700-b7e5-14d95cf7c5d7/dscn1952_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - This Lolita coat by MIYA is too sweet for words! I have seen this piece on Taobao re-sellers. I was ecstatic to have finally found the shop of origin! On the third-party websites, this lolita coat was $65, while the Taobao shop offered the same piece for $22-25 depending on size. Miya offered the coat in white, pink, red, ivory and gray. The coat is available for 1/4, 1/3 and SD16 sized dolls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/38b2eceb-edbd-4113-ab1f-d9aa5ceabb90/dscn1964_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - Featured on the front of the coat are three silver sculpted rose buttons. The buttons hide snaps that allow you to dress your doll with ease! The pink ribbons and pearl accents are extra pieces that make this coat beyond impressive! The 1/4 size is perfect. For Hitomi, a 50 cm Obitsu, the sleeves are a tiny bit too short for her. This can be ignored with some long sleeve gloves or wristcuffs as pictured. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/74445269-2db9-490f-b50f-57e703356ba6/dscn1948_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - This lolita style blouse by Tong is a steal at only $10!! The blouse is perfect for lolita fashion due to the style design and the intricate details the blouse possesses. The cotton material is soft to the touch and the level of construction is beyond stellar! I cannot get over how small the stitches and ruffles are! This item is a perfect 1/4 scale from the tiny stitches to the charming flower buttons. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/43660e47-b5c5-4477-89ca-6c129517e374/dscn2049_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - There is enough room in the blouse that the medium bust option for the 50 cm Obitsu frame can still be used underneath. The sleeve-length would be perfect for an MSD-sized doll. The only flaw that I could find would be that the fabric of the blouse is slightly sheer. You can see the skirt underneath. Rating: 9 / 10 This blouse is precious. Each aspect of this item is intricate with sweetness and frills. The piece is a great classic staple to any doll's Lolita style wardrobe. The material used is of a great quality, and the precision of the stitching is fantastic. With an asking price of just $10, I would highly recommend it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ad47b983-433f-483f-8a4a-5a2baac4dc67/dscn1962_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - The stitching is completely even and impressive for such a small piece. The bag is padded underneath to offer some softness to the bag. On top of the bag is a charming bow. A zipper at the side of the purse allows you to easily open the bag. You can place whatever you'd like to keep handy. The strap was easy to manipulate. Since Hitomi is about 10 cm shorter than a traditional SD sized doll, the ability to be able to shorten the strap is amazing. I cannot believe how adorable Hitomi looks with this lovely heart shaped purse! I am thankful that I purchased the bags in various colors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bafe8843-fc68-47e5-8ef4-0062d0fbb8a5/dscn1990_3_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - These darling heart shaped purses were too cute not to add! I was more than pleased that I was able to find purses that would match Hitomi's Sweet Lolita wardrobe. The heart shape reminds me of one of the classic Lolita purse designs created by Baby, the Stars Shine Bright. The store carries the bags in five colors and multiple sizes. I purchased the 1/3 size. Each purchase includes two purses of the same color for about $14. These bags are the right proportion for Hitomi. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1cb566ba-7508-40ac-82f0-41a1962e7d8b/d_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1a707fe7-b595-4403-8ead-de51023454d4/a_10_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - The blouse has expert pleats.

What's the catch? I ordered the items for my doll Hitomi! Since Hitomi is a Lolita herself, I am always on the lookout for new apparel items and accessories for her to wear! All ordered items from Taobao outside of China require a shopping service. Each shopping service has different fees for this service. I did some research and, for my first direct Taobao order, I used the shopping service known as TaobaoRing. I read a lot of reviews that said the shopping fee was reasonable at 8% and the communication and shipping were favorable. I purchased the following items for this order: Winter Coat Long-sleeved Blouse Heart Purses https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/5173bd0f-a4e7-46b4-81a9-0770131dd4d0/dscn1943_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/taobaoring-review-lol-bjd-items">Review: Lolita Ball-Jointed Doll </a>Clothing &amp; Accessories - The winter coat and capelet were wrapped carefully in clear plastic.

The capelet has a simple sheer white ribbon which allows you to add it easily. Rating: 10/10 The design of the coat is completely wonderful, charming and it is perfect for the Sweet Lolita style. The material used is wonderful, and the skill used is superb. I cannot believe this winter coat had an asking price of only $25 USD.

Once again, I am completely captivated by the quality of an AP piece! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/10bfcc6a-f98c-4f1f-a5fb-f19d3245bb02/dscn1605_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> - Rating: 10 / 10 Just like the bracelet, the Cream Doughnut Ring is extremely charming! I am very impressed with the aspects that create this overall piece, from the sweet design to the sparkling additions. Unlike the bracelet, however, the ring is constructed of high-quality materials and is well worth the price! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bc49d1d3-baae-49f9-b8d8-6659a24609ff/dscn1561_1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> My bag was purchased directly from Angelic Pretty, so it still had all of the price tags. I was very impressed that the bag had been shipped with tissue paper to maintain a lovely heart shape. The two handles of the purse were secured with a white joined cloth to ensure the handles remained in place. I was curious to see if a lolita brand bag would be of a higher quality than my indie lolita purses. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/65adc3de-5f58-49d9-a3d1-b800cb8f6b37/dscn1587_1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> The satin that the ribbon is constructed of is incredibly soft! The material was additionally sturdy, so it should maintain it shapes even after being worn. The tulle lace is not soft to the touch, but the details are incredibly charming! The lace features light polka dots as well as half circles of lace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/56757e2a-d3c3-4ac7-a437-05412407f9fe/winter-sale-2017-slider-orig_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8d85d894-5379-424d-9c7c-6e83061c5a5e/dscn1548_1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> This is the second time that I have purchased directly from the Angelic Pretty USA store.

I love the fact that the frosting and sprinkles are on a completely different layer than the base. This allows the glitz of the rhinestones and the sweet painted hearts to stand out. The rhinestones are incredibly brilliant and catch the light beautifully. The gold charm adds to that. The beads are standard plastic, but I do love the frosted effect on the beads. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693874583867-K4HU6XHEY058A4C35Y8O/br-32-orig_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693874584001-USG0M5AXT2E4K08USJLN/brace-orig_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693874585592-9TMQREBQUN7HTV25CK70/lady-heart-quilting-bag-pk-orig_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693874585410-M8W5AHQ6YYTX5Z6VR6L3/dolly-pearl-headbow-pk-orig_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/11d96c32-e66a-4983-b49d-7c79ea759149/onnoble-sports-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/08357114-3e2d-4fb9-8fa0-e91008ffdcd1/dscn1583_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Angelic Pretty USA Lolita Essentials (Winter Sale)</a> - Make it stand out The Dolly Pearl Headbow was the reason that I made my initial online purchase.

It's time for another topic from the Lolita challenge! This week I will share of how I discovered lolita fashion. The story of how I uncovered lolita probably similar to many of yours! It was my pre-existing hobbies that lead me to the discovery. I have always had a weakness for anything cute, historical and fantasy related. Most of my time and energy revolved around hobbies that fueled these interests. Due to this, it was only a matter of time that I would stumble across lolita style. Once Upon a Time... For those of you who do not know, I enjoy anime. I have been a serious magical girl since my middle school years. In 2007 and I had finished an episode of Cardcaptor Sakura. The talented women of CLAMP are my favorite manga artists. I love their art styles, their characters and the worlds they create. CLAMP's illustrations always cause me to take pause and appreciate the intricacies of their work. This is especially so with their character's clothes and accessories. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/43ac769c-9c7e-4b1d-867d-102ea1338310/glb42.jpg Lolita Blog - How I Discovered Lolita Fashion - After hours of detective work, I found a fashion thread that explained the "costumes" I came across were actually part of a street fashion called lolita. Over the next few weeks, I pieced together the lolita puzzle. I found EGL on LiveJournal and learned more about the Japanese fashion brands. At the time, the money required to fund this fashion style was a deterrent. While I did not wear the fashion, I spent a lot of time learning about it. The more I learned, the more I wanted to wear it! Lolita fit perfectly with my love of beautiful things. The unique style was a welcomed site, as being ordinary has never been a priority. I was positively captivated by the fact these beautiful pieces of art things people actually wore! The ability to full my life with something so gorgeous was a welcomed experience, even if at the time I did not own or wear it myself. Who would have thought an episode of Cardcaptor Sakura would lead to this life-changing discovery? As much as anime gets a bad reputation in the lolita community, anime and manga was a huge piece of what drew me to the fashion style! Anime introduced me to this fashion. Anime made me open to an alternate fashion. Anime helped me find an online and in-person lolita community through established skills. Anime made me familiar with the graphic novel section of the bookstore, and thus my discovery of the Gothic Lolita Bible occurred! There are countless more examples I could give, but I am certain I have made my point. Thanks so much, CLAMP! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2310ae27-a791-45f0-84b8-340ac8aea4da/7367473.jpg Lolita Blog - How I Discovered Lolita Fashion - My love for style began with Cardcaptor Sakura. I loved all of Sakura's costume. Unlike my first magical girl love Sailor Moon, who's outfit only changed slightly every season, Sakura had multiple costumes for her card capturing adventures! Each costume was more beautiful than the next. Clamp went out of their way to illustrate the feminine details of her clothes. My particularly favorite costumes involved soft pastels, frills, lace, and ribbons. Does this sound familiar? I was hopeful that Sakura would be a possible cosplay option for my local anime convention. While browsing possible cosplay costumes on anime forums another post caught my eye. The results looked a lot like what Sakura would wear, but for the life of me I could not figure out what series or character the outfit belonged to! These unknown costumes had the same elements for sure! The blouse was full and had accents of lace and ribbons and was layered under a sleeveless pastel dress. There were cute rounded shoes, knee-high socks, cute laced gloves and, most importantly, a full skirt with a thick layer of frills! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/yp4vreawuoapmzpohys2sfu3d620cs monthly 0.5 2023-09-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f19aec4f-dba4-4a13-be72-155e8725a02b/l562-2_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bodyline-an-inexpensive-online-source-for-lol-fashion">Bodyline, an Inexpensive Online Source for Lolita Fashion</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/84e4d29f-d724-4b56-8792-fa563ce8ebbd/cherries_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bodyline-an-inexpensive-online-source-for-lol-fashion">Bodyline, an Inexpensive Online Source for Lolita Fashion</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e006cdde-b568-4dea-8d05-6be2b4b1d9db/cake_2_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bodyline-an-inexpensive-online-source-for-lol-fashion">Bodyline, an Inexpensive Online Source for Lolita Fashion</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a185a9e2-3ae7-41f2-9f6a-929deeb33336/141_3_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bodyline-an-inexpensive-online-source-for-lol-fashion">Bodyline, an Inexpensive Online Source for Lolita Fashion</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2d779fd1-7860-4bba-832c-2543d816db93/lovely_1_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bodyline-an-inexpensive-online-source-for-lol-fashion">Bodyline, an Inexpensive Online Source for Lolita Fashion</a> - Rose Garden Coordinate Jumperskirt l567 ($13.33) Blouse l527 ($6.66) Hat 1373 ($1.99) Shoes s526 ($33.32) Socks s354 ($1.33) Total coordinate cost: $56.63 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/46a1ee15-54c9-4db6-ae7e-ffb5fe810808/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T200637.576.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/bodyline-an-inexpensive-online-source-for-lol-fashion">Bodyline, an Inexpensive Online Source for Lolita Fashion</a> - Bodyline is a Japanese clothing brand. Bodyline has three physical stores, as well as an online store which offers worldwide shipping. Among cosplay and costumes, Bodyline also sells lolita fashion and accessories. Not only does Bodyline sell lolita fashion, but the vast majority of Bodyline's items are also reasonably priced. This is especially true when it comes to Bodyline's famous and common sales. Whatever your lolita needs, Bodyline is a fantastic source to increase your lolita wardrobe! I have included five coordinates made with Bodyline items only. I have purchased directly from this brand many times, and I have never been disappointed! Bodyline offers many of the pieces you need for a complete lolita coordinate. Aside from the petticoats that Bodyline offers, it is easy to create a complete lolita look with the available in the online store.

Ops or JSKs? I prefer jumperskirts. While an one-piece is nice, I have more versatility with a jumperskirt. 43. Have you ever regretted buying lolita? No, never! The only "lolita" I have ever regretted buying was imitation lolita. That dress doesn't count. 44. What is the silliest thing you have ever done in lolita? A Destination Haunt meet-up. Twenty of us tromped around the dark forest, in full Lolita coordinates and many in brand, for an hour and a half while costumed clowns and ghouls attempted to frighten us in Halloween glee. It worked. 45. Gothic or Bittersweet? I love both, but ultimately I would have to vote for Bittersweet. I just love black and pastel prints! 46. Does Lolita make you genuinely happy? Yes! Lolita makes me ecstatically happy! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4c2503ec-239b-487d-9e3a-81ee3e1dce36/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T190603.436.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 34. How do you cope with negative views about lolita? I do this in a variety of ways. Basically, I try to listen to the individual's reasoning behind why they believe lolita a negative fashion. This helps me to understand what incorrect assumptions that they hold. Once I have finished listening, usually, people are prepared to listen to my side. They may not agree, or believe my position, but at least they respect my opinion as a woman who wears lolita. 35. Do you have a favorite brand? Yes, Angelic Pretty. I love virtually everything that Angelic Pretty's designers dream up and create. 36. Do you enjoy or are you annoyed with the attention that lolita brings from onlookers? Eh, it is mixed. When people are genuinely interested in the fashion, or greet me with positive attention, I do not mind acknowledging it in the slightest. Admittedly, it is rather difficult to carry out everyday errands or outings with the attention. Due to this, I would ultimately prefer it if everyone would treat my lovely clothes as just that. They are, after all, a collection of beautiful clothes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/0f9c2d33-7cce-48dd-a81b-1e02b2d5a2b1/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T184052.079.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 19. Did your last kiss take place while wearing lolita? No, it did not thankfully. 20. Do you have a favorite print or series? Yes, of course! My absolute favorite series and print is Melty Cream Doughnut by Angelic Pretty. 21. Where is your favorite place to buy off-brand items? It depends on what it is that I am looking to purchase. If I am interested in purchasing apparel, I would most likely purchase the item from Taobao. If I am interested in a unique lolita accessory, it would most likely be found on Etsy. I try to make any small lolita accessories or jewelry pieces that I need for coordinates myself. Not only does it minimize cost, but the creation allows me to express myself creatively. I also love the ability to make jewelry and accessories for my friends as well! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1b6920a9-33e5-4aa4-8c63-773d893f08eb/Untitled+design+%28100%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 16. Have you gotten a dream dress and been disappointed? I suppose so, in a sense. I recently purchased my dream dress, Melty Cream Doughnut JSK from Angelic Pretty. The replica that I had purchases a few years back fits better than the original dress. 17. To what extent has lolita entered your life? To say lolita fashion has had a low impact on my life would be an understatement. Lolita has permeated every aspect of my life, and all for the better. Many of my preexisting hobbies or pastimes are now peppered with lolita influences. My artwork commonly features Lolitas, while my other sketches feature apparel or jewelry designs that compliment lolita fashion. Many of the characters, worlds, and stories I create feature elements of lolita fashion, or the characters are Lolitas. In addition to these influences, I maintain, create and dream up new creations and designs for my lolita indie brand. It is a great way to express my love of fashion and accessorize other lolita fans as well! I love that lolita fashion has touched me in so many important and unique ways. 18. How many days a week do you wear lolita? I attempt to wear lolita fashion at least once a week, but often times I am unable to accomplish this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3ff44773-add9-46c2-aad2-75d40ace5c6d/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T184218.925.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 22. Bonnets or Head bows? Both! I own mostly head bows, but I adore bonnets. I have not tried one myself, but I absolutely love them on other people. I am worried a bonnet would look too juvenile on me, but I would like to try it. 23. Have you been to the Baby, the Stars Shine Bright in Paris? Sadly, no. I have never been to a Baby, the Stars Shine Bright physical store of any kind. 24. From which brand do you own the most items? It is a tie. I have just as many items from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright as I do for Maxicimam. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/de9ab9be-baa4-4bc2-8be9-c2bf2adbb214/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T185840.307.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 27. Look in your closet. Name the first lolita item you see. Would you part with it? My Melty Cream Doughnut Jumperskirt in the pink colorway? Not on your life. 28. What is the last item you bought from a sales comm? That would be my s538 Bodyline shoes in pink. I purchased them from a Facebook sales community. 29. Do you own anything from an indie brand? Yes, of course! Many of my lolita fashion pieces are from indie brands. 30. Do you create anything related to lolita? Yes! I create many different lolita items. Some of the pieces I create include necklaces, bracelets, rings, brooches, earrings, crowns all of which can be worn with Lolita fashion. I have also made Lolita pieces and accessories for my doll as well. I am looking forward to making even more items! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bab8d965-906d-4bde-821e-24f777d08de0/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T193338.544.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 47. OTT or Simple? It truly depends on the event for me. I love simple Lolita styles for everyday wear, but over-the-top Lolita is especially fun for special events. I adore the excuse to dress up! 48. Have you ever had a bad experience due to Lolita? Yes. I had an unfortunate incident where a grown man was videotaping me without my permission while I dined at a restaurant with my sweetheart. It was extremely unnerving experience. I have no doubt that the incident would not have happened if I were in traditional street clothes. 49. Have you ever submitted a secret? No, never. If I did submit a secret it would be a positive one! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/742376ac-8066-4a0b-8e27-8f688f623a37/Untitled+design+%2899%29.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 12. Do you prefer wigs, hair extensions or your natural hair? I prefer wigs. They are easy to maintain and I am able to change my hair to match any coordinate! 13. OTKs or Knee Highs? OTKs for sure! They always seem to look better with my coordinates more than thigh highs. 14. Do you still own your first lolita piece? Yes, and no? I had a terrible "lolita" dress as my first piece from eBay. At the time I became introduced to lolita fashion, there were extremely limited options for plus size ladies. The impostor lolita dress piece I purchased has been disposed of. I do, however, still own my first actual lolita piece. It is l348 from Bodyline. I own it in the pink colorway and it is still a great addition to my lolita wardrobe. 15. Do you currently have a dream dress? Now that I have my first dream dress, my current desire is Melty Berry Princess by Angelic Pretty. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/81ea555c-e316-41ed-85cc-0bc51d1694f7/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T191425.884.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 37. Cotton blouses or Cutsews? This is an easy one. I prefer cotton blouses 100%. I love the feel, style and structure of a blouse. 38. Lolita is a beautiful thing, isn't it? Yes, it really is. Every article of a coordinate is stunning. Also, in my experience, I have come to find that lolita fashion creates such strong and lovely individuals. 39. Is there a time where you absolutely won't wear lolita? I would not wear lolita to important life events, such as a funeral or a best friend's wedding. 40. What is on your wrists right now? A few handmade rings and my Alex and Ani bracelet bangles. 41. Have you ever worn lolita in Japan? No. I have, unfortunately, never been to Japan. I have been dying to go since my middle school days! I could not image anything better than going to Japan and shopping in Harajuku for the latest designs! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7bf49513-03fd-4954-92bd-03f8e397dd5c/Untitled+design+%2897%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 1. How did you first get into Lolita? I happened to be researching cosplay costumes at the time. While I was looking up CLAMP costumes, I stumbled across lolita style clothes. Truthfully, I was completely captivated by the lovely frills, bows, and, silhouette of this feminine fashion style. I could not believe such a beautiful fashion style was being worn as an everyday fashion! I collected every English edition of the Gothic & Lolita Bible I could get my hands on. I researched the fashion dutifully online. The entire time, I daydreamed about the day I would finally wear such gorgeous and pretty clothes. It was a desire I had to pursue! 2. Do you have a favorite Lolita style? Yes! I am especially fond of the Sweet Lolita. I also enjoy adore Classic Sweet Lolita and Hime Lolita. 3. What if I told you that you are my Lolita inspiration? Wait, what?! I would feel extremely humble and would continue to blush uncontrollably for days! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4f26f354-b1fc-4694-9604-d6e236c832a4/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T190335.026.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 31. Has lolita helped or hindered your love life? Honestly, both. Initially lolita has hindered my love life because potential partners, mainly men, did not want me to wear lolita fashion out in the real world. Obviously, this did not go over well, and I ended the relationships almost as quickly as they started. When I found my partner, I had just begun to start wearing lolita and I steadily wore the fashion more and more. My darling has been extremely supportive of the fashion and continues to be supportive. I am so glad that I waited to find her! 32. Falsies or mascara? Falsies, if I am able to successfully wear them in addition to my glasses. Contacts would come in handy. Since I require glasses for now, I typically use mascara. Perhaps I will experiment someday. 33. Do you have a color preference when it comes to lolita? Yes! I have a particular weakness for pink. I am especially fond of a pink that features a warm hue. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a5165a5f-c887-43f9-85bb-07b79a1fcb7a/Untitled+design+%2898%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 7. Was your first lucky pack lucky or unlucky? I have never purchased a lucky pack. I would be happy to purchase one if they make one in my size! 8. What color were your first pair of tea parties? My first pair of tea parties were white. I purchased a custom pair from ClobbaOnline. This pair of tea party shoes did not last long at all. The glue had not finished curing, and thus the bottom of the shoe separated completely. Thankfully, I have some additional tea parties that are better constructed! 9. Did you wear lolita today? Sadly, no. My occupation does not allow for me to wear lolita and I get home too late to change. 10. What brand is your most comfortable JSK from? My Letters to my Dear lolita Jumperskirt by Precious Clove. You cannot beat a custom size piece! 11. Could you go without lolita for the rest of your life? No. Even if I cease to wear Lolita fashion myself, I will still draw, dream, and dress my dolls in lolita. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/78d6f352-68ec-4afc-bee0-23c5fa232306/Untitled+design+-+2023-09-04T185208.745.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 25. How does your family react to lolita? It honestly mixed, but mostly supportive. My mother ping-pongs between thinking lolita is strange and thinking it is wondrous. She has made me some lolita apparel pieces and she has purchased some lolita items for me, which is greatly appreciated. My brother was under the delusion lolita was a fetish related fashion such as Age-Play. Thankfully, his position on this has passed and he understands it is just a pretty fashion. He is all for doing your own thing. My father is just utterly fascinated by lolita fashion. He is always asking interesting questions and seems to like the coordinates I wear. Personally, I think he likes lolita so much because it is modest and princess like. No matter what I will always be his little girl. My partner is extremely supportive of lolita fashion! 26. Kuro or Shiro? Ooo, this is a difficult question. I would love to do Shiro Lolita. Shiro Lolita looks so glorious and lovely, like a style an angel would wear. I dress my doll Hitomi in this style often, but I am not certain I would be able to pull it off. Kuro would most likely be the safer bet to my accident-prone self. 27. Look in your closet. Name the first lolita item you see. Would you part with it? My Melty Cream Doughnut Jumperskirt in the pink colorway? Not on your life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a3f45eaa-f17f-404c-84bd-0b70c6ce447e/Untitled+design+%2896%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/amino-lol-questionnaire">An Amino Lolita Questionnaire</a> - 4. Baby, the Stars Shine Bright or Alice and the Pirates? Baby, the Stars Shine Bright. I just adore many styles and designs that Baby, the Stars Shine Bright creates. While I do like Alice and the Pirates, I tend to be more selective with the styles or colorways that I prefer. Baby, the Stars Shine Bright's designs are absolutely perfect for a Sweet Lolita-like me! 5. Do you have any lolita meets you plan on attending? No, there are no meetups in the works currently. Sadly, my local community has seen some change and unrest. We had three lolita leaders in our local community. One of them moved to California, and the other two left the fashion completely. Since then, no one has picked up the torch and rekindle the community. Thankfully, the rest of us have come together and we should have new meetups shortly! 6. How many petticoats do you have? Just one from Classical Puppets, but I do have plans to purchase an additional one soon. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecombloglolita-challenge-an-unexpected-lol-print-i-would-lovean-unexpected-lolita-print-i-would-lovea monthly 0.5 2023-09-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/be960b8e-7011-4757-9853-99d373a39fc1/screen-shot-2013-03-01-at-10-21-35-pm1.png Lolita Blog - An Unexpected Lolita Print I Would Love</a> - My Sweet Rilakkuma I adore Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma.

While I did purchase many lolita items, an additional lolita bag and purchase my first brand name JSK with an adorable print, I did not purchase a lolita winter coat, boots, or an additional lolita styled bag. I was a bit too optimistic. While I did expand my wardrobe, overall, this goal was primarily unsuccessful. Sew Lolita Projects Included: 3 Lolita themed projects for myself and 3 Lolita themed projects for my doll Hitomi This goal was 100% unsuccessful. I did not create any pieces for myself or Hitomi by sewing. I did create a few pieces, such as jewelry for myself, but none of my finished projects required sewing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d7cc8a78-f27b-4d5f-baa6-e794aab8a570/Untitled+design+%2859%29.png Lolita Blog - My 2017&nbsp;Lolita New Year Resolutions</a> - My 2017 Goals Wardrobe Expansion Includes: a Lolita winter coat a pair of Lolita winter boots an additional blouse an additional bag a new Jumperskirt maintain my weekly personal training sessions I promised to stick to my main wardrobe colors.

Once you have that side secure, place your perfected edge over the top of the less than perfect paper, and secure the wrapping paper with scotch tape.

I found that the brand new and sealed small golden picture frame was easier than I opened one. I decided to have two different sizes for variation as well. I chose pastel pink and pastel blue for my wrapping paper, silver pull gift bows and silver gift ribbon for my projects. All of my items were obtained for $1 from my local Dollar Tree! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9d7bed1d-b4a0-48c5-b1cc-dced15a9f115/dscn0827.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-lovely-do-it-yourself-gift-display-that-is-a-perfect-fit-for-any-lol">A Lovely DIY Gift Display That is a Perfect Fit for Any Lolita</a> - Step Four: Inspect the front of your piece. Your covered frame should be secure and flat. If the front if your piece looks good to go, place the plastic ribbon vertically on the wrapping paper. When you can cut the ribbon, so the ribbon appears to be a single piece, use your scissors to snip the ribbon. Place the two pieces of the ribbon end to end and secure them together with a square of tape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9324bc4e-f511-414a-86db-0ec414c0f42d/dscn0820_1.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-lovely-do-it-yourself-gift-display-that-is-a-perfect-fit-for-any-lol">A Lovely DIY Gift Display That is a Perfect Fit for Any Lolita</a> - Step One: ✓ Choose your wrapping paper ✓ Choose your frame Roll out your chosen wrapping paper flatly onto your work space. Lay your picture frame in the center of the wrapping paper. In order to keep the wrapping paper flat, feel free to use your metal scissors to hold the edges of the wrapping paper down.

There are limitless videos, blogs and forum posts that act as advice about fashion. Many of these sources suggest you should start with a skirt if you have not worn the style before. Many sources suggest you should buy a one-piece dress to start with. Many of these sources state you should buy off-brand or indie brand pieces to get you started or to stick to a style to grow your wardrobe. All these suggestions are great advice! It is always good to view your options and seek a second opinion. What about my advice? My advice is simple: do what feels right for you! If you think you should start out small when you want to start a fashion, do it. Do you want to purchase your dream dress? Do it. Do you want to try multiple lolita fashion styles? Do it. If you never try it, you will regret it. It is important to listen to that little voice inside of you. It is important to hear other options to help you decide.

Do not worry. There are many ways you can wear name brand lolita fashion at an affordable price. From secondhand shops to sales, here are some options: Lolita name brands have sales throughout the year, so you can save big on your favorite lolita essentials.

Fashion only grows because of people who push the defined boundaries and experiment with the style. While there are very defined aesthetic rules required to make lolita, well, lolita, the need to stay interesting and integrate new styles keeps the fashion fresh, new, and exciting! There have been many trends in mainstream and other kawaii fashion styles that have made their way into Lolita fashion. A french peignoir has been added from other popular Harajuku fashions, such as fairy kei and mori kei, into lolita recently. This beautiful airy overly is often made of a light and breathable fabric, such as organza. Flower crowns have also made an appearance in lolita! This recent fashion trend features lovely false silk flowers with every addition from leaves to pearls. They are certainly a delicate and beautiful accessory, particularly if you have a floral print in your lolita coordinate. Both of these trends are just examples of recent additions to lolita. There are numerous additions that have been added to take Lolita to the next level. If no one added something new to this wonderful street fashion, the fashion would slowly fade. Do experiment and add new ideas to this style! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/cp4e6kld7r87g2huhmc4qmhl2hc3yi monthly 0.5 2023-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4ea7f83f-2e6e-4ce4-b57e-1c44f2d92407/Untitled+design+%2893%29.png Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Chronic Illness - Upset Stomach If you suffer from digestion issues, I find that a Jumperskirt, particularly a high waist style dress, gives you versatility. If you have bloat or discomfort from the digestion issues, a Jumperskirt allows you to minimize the extent of the volume your body experiences and stay rather comfortable. Tech Support If you require tubing or other small machines that are attached to your body at times, a One-piece dress or a Jumperskirt are a great way to counsel these items. While you are able to cover such things with a skirt and a blouse, I find the overall dress allows for more privacy and security to conceal an undesired discovery. Concealment I find that a sensitivity to the sun, or undesired skin condition, can be easily be hidden with layers. A long blouse, a sweater, and tights are an easy way to keep your skin covered. Additional items, such as gloves, hats, parasols, and socks, can be added as a way to cover your skin and protect you from the sun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/211061ce-586a-421f-8936-2130b78bc2a3/Untitled+design+%2890v2%29.png Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Chronic Illness - Every princess has a weakness, but a true princess never quits. While it isn't a particularly fun topic of discussion, it is an important topic that needs to be addressed. Many participants of lolita fashion struggle with important, often life impacting, illnesses. I myself am absolutely no exception to this fact. To live each day with chronic pain or quality of life difficulties make the enjoyment of such an extravagant and beautiful fashion a challenge at times. Here are some suggestions that may help you understand what a friend may experience, or to help you wear the fashion you love despite your illness! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/8811a4a9-94ad-4187-8fb9-0bda3bc0d977/Untitled+design+%2892%29.png Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Chronic Illness - What does the meet-up entail? Where will we be going? Where is the event taking place? Will there be a lot of walking or driving? The difference between a simple art exhibit in your hometown and extensive commute to a special tea house can be quite extensive. To know what the meetup requires for the event will help you plan adequate accommodations and the rest you will require after the event takes place. How long is the event? How long will the event physically last? How long will it take to get to the meet-up and to drive back? Is the plan to take an extended drive to an out-of-town location? How about a meet up that involves dinner and karaoke? It is always important to have an idea of how long the fun filled evening will be so you can assess whether it may be a good meet-up to attend and leave when needed or to skip it for the next one. Is the event inside or out? Do you need access to a power source? Do you have to be shaded from the sun? Do you get cold or hot easily? Do you need to wear extra layers or fewer in order to stay cozy? All of these questions are viable if your illness affects your body's ability to stay comfortable in certain temperatures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2a99ed7c-be91-4f13-9f62-399161258add/Untitled+design+%2894%29.png Lolita Blog - Lolita Fashion and Chronic Illness - Remember to have Fun!

Here are my reasons why: Ease of Fit Many times, jumperskirts have a generous amount of shirring. This means the dress can accommodate a multitude of sizes. Additionally, many jumperskirts have corset lacing that can also allow for easy adjustments to fit many sizes. Not only do you save money from the flexibility, but you can also rest assured with the knowledge that you look your absolute best! Coordinate Combinations With a jumperskirt, you can add multiple top options. You can choose a blouse with a long sleeve, a short sleeve shirt, or a cutsew. Some of my other favorite add-ons to a jumperskirt include boleros or a corset. These items allow for more choices than just a one-piece dress alone! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/dc00a630-36b6-43fe-85d3-962a7329cd46/Untitled+design+%2886%29.png Lolita Blog - A Lolita Jumperskirt, a Skirt or a One Piece, Oh My!</a> - While jumperskirts are my number one favorite pieces, the designs of most lolita skirts are truly precious unto themselves. They are my second choice! A lolita skirt is a lovely, and less expensive, addition to any lolita wardrobe! Collect Your Favorites A skirt is a great way to collect your favorite prints for less than an investment than a dress. This fact also allows you to build your lolita wardrobe faster than with dresses alone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6ea3af3d-662d-4983-a1a4-0a699c29d8ec/Untitled+design+%2889%29.png Lolita Blog - A Lolita Jumperskirt, a Skirt or a One Piece, Oh My!</a> - The one-piece dress finds its home in last place for this fashion comparison. Do not get me wrong, I absolutely love the design of most one-piece dresses! There are however significant benefits it lacks when compared with a jumperskirt or a skirt. A one-piece dress does allow for additional benefits that a lolita jumperskirt or skirt cannot provide. An Overall Print A one-piece dress gives you the ability to show off the beautiful overall print! The more surface area means more of the details can be seen and appreciated. Stands Alone This piece makes a bold statement. If you want a simple coordinate, an OP is a great choice! The addition of socks or tights, shoes, bag and matching hair accessories transform into a completed ensemble in no time. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/yhxroeed0sg366jls5i2pgjdonftmr monthly 0.5 2023-09-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/6271d239-118a-407f-bd2b-ec4fa20613f8/10061553-57f5f4fd0b240_orig.jpg Lolita Blog -

I am always on the lookout for a new exotic tea and enjoy the sampling of something new. My favorite time of day to drink tea is in the afternoon and at night alongside a good novel. Of course, my love of tea requires another great aspect — the collection of teacups! Slowly but surely, I have begun to collect a select few beautiful ceramic teacups. My teacups hang on their own display frame so their saucer and cup can be admired accordingly from their shelf. I cannot think of a hobby more befitting lolita fashion quite like tea and teacups! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/02928b5f-de2c-45bf-84a4-145d22be3b7c/Untitled+design+%2865%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-hobbies-that-compliment-lol">My Hobbies That Compliment Lolita</a> - Reading I love to read and have enjoyed so since I was a little girl. I am especially fond of classic literature with a special fondness for historical fiction and fairy tales. Some of my favorite authors include Lewis Carroll, Hans Christian Anderson, the Grimm Brothers, Jane Austin, Charlotte Bronte, J.K. Rowling, and CLAMP. My favorite type of books completely transports me to another world. I can forget the rules and expectations of my own world and fall completely under the spell of the author's creation. My favorite genres fit nicely along with the romanticism and elegance of lolita. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/d3b1d25f-20bd-4fe2-ad33-ccea15876e49/Untitled+design+%2854%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-hobbies-that-compliment-lol">My Hobbies That Compliment Lolita</a> - Writing I have always enjoyed writing. The ability to verbalize the worlds and people I create is a skill I hold most dear. Stories are something I treasure most, and all my hobbies possess a story. From my doll characters to the prints upon my clothes. I love being able to put my fantasies and horror to life through ink and paper. Each character and world I create share an unbreakable bond. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to share these curiosities and creation with others. I feel completely free as I allow myself to become enveloped within the pages of creation. I am most looking forward to the creation of my lolita inspired fairy tales! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/4c881307-7f0a-4540-ad21-69b648886350/Untitled+design+%2864%29.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-hobbies-that-compliment-lol">My Hobbies That Compliment Lolita</a> - Arts and Crafts It would be completely impossible for me to stop creating. I enjoy being able to draw fun designs, particularly ones that are cute and pink! My favorite things to illustrate are chibis. I would love to design prints for my own lolita and doll clothes, as well as illustrate my own lolita inspired novels. I also enjoy making elegant jewelry, such as earrings and rings, to go with my lolita fashion wardrobe. Armed with imitation frosting, I can transform any ordinary household object into an adorable one in minutes!

I can be swept up into the romanticism and fashion of earlier human eras for hours. Many of the movies and television series I watch are all historically based and often feature frilly and feminine overtones. Some of my favorite period films include; A Royal Affair, Pride and Prejudice, Belle, Mansfield Park, and Marie Antoinette.

Lolita was a huge motivator for me and pushed me to learn! While I am still a beginner, I enjoy the ability to create new things! My favorite things to create are lolita accessories for myself and for my Ball-Jointed-Doll Hitomi. I can image myself sewing in another time completely adorned in frills. It is convenient for me to have this skill set! I find that many of the things I need can be assembled with the right materials and time.

Their slender bodies and tiny clothes are pretty to admire. Now that I am older I am particularly fond of Asian Ball-Jointed and similar dolls. I discovered BJDs through lolita fashion and can say this interest only expands my passion for lolita. Many of my doll characters wear lolita fashion and adopt lolita norms such as have many wigs and outfits. My first character Hitomi even designs lolita fashion and runs her own designer lolita store!

I am especially fond of shopping at a mall and shopping centers so that I am able to browse multiple shops at once. Not to mention you have all your basic comfort needs under one roof! I can always be sure to discover a great new find I can use for a current or future coordinate.

This prompt begs the question of what do I believe a complete lolita wardrobe contains? In the start of my lolita journey I would have considered a wardrobe with a few staple pieces so I would have some diversity when attending lolita meets and conventions. Now that I am a bit more seasoned, I would consider a complete lolita wardrobe to possess enough pieces so I would be able to wear lolita on a daily basis. The ability to have enough pieces to accommodate a full month without outfit repeats would be an absolute dream! A health mix of blouses, bloomers, skirts, dresses and accessories is an expensive venture, but one that I am determined to complete. Let’s figure this out mathematically! https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/6rcj7o7rzmdr2l6t3ngn5vxkt6mg5r monthly 0.5 2023-08-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/47435e7f-9ff9-461c-9abd-a9547f733ad4/8439859.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-book-review">Review: Lolita Fashion Book</a> - Misako Aoki released her Lolita Fashion Book in March of 2014. Unlike her previous book, Sometimes Cute Revolution, this book promised to be more comprehensive in regard to lolita fashion. In this book, Misako highlights lolita fashion styles and sub-styles, lolita hair and makeup tutorials and lolita coordinates in full-color brilliance! Many Japanese brands are featured in this book. These include brands such as Baby, the Stars Shine Bright, Angelic Pretty, Innocent World, and Metamorphose. After months in search I finally was able to obtain my own copy! I made my purchase from Tokyo Otaku Mode! This store always has great goods from Japan. I ordered the book along with a few other goodies. My order arrived quickly, which is typical with this online shop. Within five days after I had placed the order, the order was in my hands. Wrapped carefully inside, I found my lolita book. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/b9c8f126-f094-4acf-ab7a-c3332774918f/212910_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-book-review">Review: Lolita Fashion Book</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ef3db64b-82da-4dcc-894f-40f5027040a9/9533197_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-book-review">Review: Lolita Fashion Book</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9b2e97e7-e93a-4a53-bf70-b4103e093ad5/9799149.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-book-review">Review: Lolita Fashion Book</a> - Overall Rating: 10 / 10 This book is beyond charming, informative, vibrant and affordable.

Once you begin to build your wardrobe the desire to wear lolita more often only grows larger, at least in my opinion. It is only a nature progression that one would want to wear lolita style clothes more often. Unfortunately, there are numerous factors that can cause complications to inhibit that wish. Here are my 5 reasons why. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/56b9146b-f59c-4f5e-af24-9516ee091782/Untitled+design+%2851%29.png Lolita Blog - Why Don’t I Wear Lolita More Often? -

<a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-trends-i-disliked-but-now-i-do">Lolita Trends I Disliked At First, but Now I Absolutely Love ❤</a> - Today, I Share lolita fashion trends I disliked that now I love! This week's post makes number 4 of the 52-week Lolita Challenge. Woah! I was first introduced to lolita fashion in the early 2000s, specifically 2007. Since then the fashion has evolved drastically! Styles that were very "in" when I first discovered the fashion are now labeled as "old school" or have been dismissed from the fashion entirely. Lolita in the early days often involved a go to head piece of a headdress and white as an accent color to every outfit was a common occurrence. As the fashion developed there were new trends that I could never envision adopting, but now I could not live without. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e7a7b043-0e21-4973-8433-a5192215e285/757029_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-trends-i-disliked-but-now-i-do">Lolita Trends I Disliked At First, but Now I Absolutely Love ❤</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/a4b8216f-c9df-4e24-a351-db2597cb510f/2969972_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-trends-i-disliked-but-now-i-do">Lolita Trends I Disliked At First, but Now I Absolutely Love ❤</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/faa0614d-1980-479f-91b7-340f59a5b36a/649950_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-trends-i-disliked-but-now-i-do">Lolita Trends I Disliked At First, but Now I Absolutely Love ❤</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/bdbacee7-1346-4446-aa1c-33f0ee585ad1/86d51553-9d3d-5347-a5c0-47e7b6c16909.jpeg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-trends-i-disliked-but-now-i-do">Lolita Trends I Disliked At First, but Now I Absolutely Love ❤</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/yyh80f77bsoi253ynz3t2kf79cr0q1 monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/64f41797-8514-4633-9337-07eb1b6f729c/3636479.gif Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/most-memorable-lolita-meet-up">My Most Memorable Lolita Meet-Up</a> - My most memorable lolita meet up so far must be the meet at Destination Haunt. Destination Haunt is Maine's scariest haunted adventure. The forest is staged with various terrifying scenes and features many costumed actors who's only job is to scare the living daylights out of you. This year, the haunted adventure was in the woods. There is no better way to celebrate the creep of Halloween! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e7ad874b-6bdb-41da-9465-cacf585365bd/7563904.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/most-memorable-lolita-meet-up">My Most Memorable Lolita Meet-Up</a> - Finally, the day of Destination Haunt arrived. The plan was to meet first at a pizza place near Destination Haunt, and then travel together to the event. I was lucky enough to carpool with Rebecca for the drive! My coordinate for the night involved a long spiral curled honey blonde wig, a Alice head-eating head bow in pink, my white short-sleeve blouse, pink ruffled Bodyline shoes and my frilly pink jumperskirt. The attempt to be adorable was slightly shrouded by the requirement for my black winter coat, but sacrifices had to be made.

I interpreted this topic as the most literal definition of outlandish. Which one of my current dream dresses is "eccentric," "curious" or "unconventional"? With my current list of dream dresses the most outlandish dress would simply be -- Wonder Cookie by Angelic Pretty. I am completely taken with this dress! The Alice homage of tea and sweets has me captivated. Despite my current wardrobe trend of a smaller print and mild tones I cannot get enough of the vibrant Sax blue and bold print. I want to adorn this print and eat sugar cookies while I read one of my most treasured adventure stories. The print is too sweet beyond words not to love. I would absolutely purchase this dress, and the matching accessories, in a heartbeat! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/28b1c953-c4cf-4bd0-b299-c47e3944c196/6045407.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-most-outlandish-dream-dress">My Most Outlandish Dream Dress</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/ui3wsorcj5ylpqbgz145wsf3hvugfy monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/17142397-dbdc-46d4-a023-018760f70931/7112169.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-trends-i-used-to-love">Lolita Fashion Trends I Used to Love</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9ab4419d-4243-4225-b6ef-c779685eac55/9462616.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-trends-i-used-to-love">Lolita Fashion Trends I Used to Love</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/40df79d8-3009-4b22-a11a-5fad745334cf/baf6a00ec6d3c895b0cd5197752574e6.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-fashion-trends-i-used-to-love">Lolita Fashion Trends I Used to Love</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/oda20uxtc0e78x4k2i0ah7al3p11sv monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/985ba422-6750-4249-ba36-e284250f39d8/2819823_orig.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/lolita-52-challenge-accepted">Lolita 52 Challenge -- Accepted!</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/17239432bz5skga2zwnhuxudd762n4 monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/3f08c3c8-4666-4a5d-9a83-a9d48e5973ec/6142059_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-order-from-baby-has-arrived">My Order from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright has Arrived</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/824465fe-5b53-45b5-91b4-eda74a2566db/83346.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-order-from-baby-has-arrived">My Order from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright has Arrived</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/7495e73f-68c7-4fec-8f0d-77563f1eaff5/506071_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/my-order-from-baby-has-arrived">My Order from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright has Arrived</a> - In the case of the flowers, they are constructed of a very delicate but sturdy craft paper.

The image from the website pales in compassion to the real thing. The main construction of the bow was accomplished with a heavy grosgrain. I was able to re-position the bow with ease from its flattened shipping state and it maintained whatever angle I manipulated it into. The lace on this bow was nothing short of astonishing. All of the materials are incredibly soft, well defined and have a good weight to them. The majority of the lace features a rose motif. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/a-hrefhttpwwwmagicalgirlmecomblogwhen-to-say-goodbyewhen-to-say-goodbyea monthly 0.5 2023-09-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/83ab0661-e697-4253-8397-d14e0d3c206d/3389007.jpg Lolita Blog - When to Say "Goodbye” - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/n7zb6jpefwemhk7f7ai2hbbol1vt5t monthly 0.5 2023-09-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2f6f8954-f5d4-4c25-b813-bc84e7b7a7de/1419622_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/48875ecf-d411-431e-a796-f9f3102f53f5/onnoble-sports_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071920725-QB5TAFO141YEIPOT5S56/843690.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071921082-XXAFM2Z01UQIEWNHZ1Y2/3066428.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/f0f3b66a-733a-4ce6-b0e7-a415323837ea/onnoble-sports-1_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/854498db-d575-437d-8c4d-b9a0274f6cac/4671456_orig+%281%29.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693073052928-CN96VHIBIHQNL3E2KC9P/9518732.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693073070234-1QHCB02GWXV1I3CBWUVN/2419166.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693073081450-3V74P2V4BVLI06UCXASW/465761.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ede150aa-3e58-47d8-90b7-c05ff88a4c9c/3022656.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - I was excited to see that each item in my order had been carefully sent in its own packaging before being encompassed by the protective bubble wrap casing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071777203-65UF39S0NQP7M2T174NQ/7838719.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071776915-8950YFXNY5PITWETAA83/1963639.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/afefa3b6-bb6e-4e8d-aa16-3ef179f4b52c/7965616_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071623527-1JDO56MFJTDN7IIJOATX/5349165.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071623625-F7P5TI3EMDR3F3OXXVDV/7855935.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/22324c4c-bb34-4b8c-bc6f-7dee942d0832/8126112_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - When my order did arrive, I was happy to see that it was extremely well packed!

Here is the result. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/338a6cfe-9a43-4d0e-a8ce-185a323da263/6426143.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071412314-ET5SOIPD63HTTYOH5ZDD/103596_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1693071411979-G708O2E9R1G9WDZ0U8F9/9828182.png Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/215e3629-0886-43a6-b3b2-9d936ee31724/183163.jpg Lolita Blog - Review: Bambi Crony BJD Items - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/n7hc49hr5wvbbwr7end6wn3bkqpza5 monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/2305ba1b-1126-4a45-ad25-65e0715c9072/1445769046.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/last-minute-halloween-costumes">Last Minute Halloween Costumes</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/29bcnfgclhwqx9t4hj2wat53x47oqs monthly 0.5 2023-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/9b243946-f73b-4c7f-a786-4a8bdf9e99ae/7434552_orig.png Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/kawaii-gifts-review">Review: Kawaii Gifts/Shop Kawaii</a> - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/438bd50c-59c1-4c3f-a178-951306792daf/kalice1110.jpg Lolita Blog - <a href="http://www.magicalgirlme.com/blog/kawaii-gifts-review">Review: Kawaii Gifts/Shop Kawaii</a> - Make it stand out I have been a long time customer of Kawaii Gifts for years.

Unfortunately, the tailor service made a mistake when they constructed my order. To receive my order on time for an event Linda from my-lolita-dress offered to send a blouse that she had in stock that fit my measurements. This blouse was the Sweet Ruffles Silk and Linen Blouse and I actually think it is prettier than the original one I had ordered. For some additional misfortune, this blouse was the wrong measurements. This item was a good 30 cm short of the required size. I was given a partial refund for the mix up. I can only hope that I can resell the blouse to someone who can enjoy it and re-order another one in the accurate size. I absolutely love the high ruffled collar on this blouse. The collar, and the overall design, is very elegant. It would pair with the Precious Clove dress perfectly. I like the ribbon details on the lace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/e1b279d1-154e-4e66-9469-bc5afd3067b9/5062355_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: My Order from My-Lolita-Dress Has Arrived!</a> - As you can see the order of items were the long-sleeved blouse, Precious Clove jumperskirt, Melty Cream Doughnut jumperskirt, and lastly my a-line petticoat. Everything arrived safe and sound! Every item was held together with a band to ensure nothing was lost. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/952c25d3-c4fa-4466-ae0a-4ae701681593/2641370_orig.png Lolita Blog - Review: My Order from My-Lolita-Dress Has Arrived!</a> - This dress was added to my order as a graduation present. It is nice to be able to see how an Angelic Pretty dress would fit to my measurements. This also give me an idea of how nice the official Angelic Pretty jumperskirt will be. I am very happy to see that the shirred version can accommodate my size easily and the shape is flattering. I will be sure to purchase official pieces from AP in the future! Overall the dress has been made immaculately. There was not one thread out of place. The dress is lined and even comes with a built in petticoat. The chiffon in which the print is placed is beyond soft. The JSK has detachable waist ties and is an overall charming piece. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/07d4e276-a6b0-49c5-8bbb-5c09a77c08c6/onnoble-sports_orig.png Lolita Blog -

How to Survive the Summer in Lolita Fashion A great way to keep your feet cool is by wearing over-the-knee socks or ankle socks. The cotton socks, like the cotton blouse, will create better air circulation and absorb any body moister in that area. Summer tights are also a good option, if you'd prefer something all over. Avoid boots or any shoe type that is tall. Footwear like this will trap heat easily. Flats with minimal surface area, such as tea parties, will aid in your overall comfort in sticky summer months. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/1f7e7072-a8e3-457b-bbd8-8bd9c3befe37/03624e8df7a64d214191af51424862f4-1_1.jpg Lolita Blog - How to Survive the Summer in Lolita Fashion - Make it stand out ©metamorphose temps de fille https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64df81b80117a07f4c1becec/ff06646f-b7e1-4bd3-925e-4d9cf3e55145/1111255-orig_orig.png Lolita Blog - How to Survive the Summer in Lolita Fashion - A parasol is a great item to shade you from the sun.
