Of past March, Galaxy Witch and Midnight Moon Jelly!

Image
 Hello all! This March kicked my butt with work and everything else going on. My work is still fulltime so I have to be on top of so many things. During March I had no opportunity to wear lolita at all. So this will be a short blogpost yes? No.  I had the pleasure to receive my order of Lady Sloth's Galaxy Witch and SweetMildred's Midnight Moon Jelly!  This is the JSK cut in Morning Star (Lavender – Pink). It is absolutely fantastic print, and I had so much difficulties in choosing colorways that I took a chance and ordered the sack OP cut in another color! This color is so different that I thought I would have difficulties coording it if it was jsk, so I thought that having it in OP would be good compromise! I really love this witchy aesthetic. OPs colorway is called Milky Way Galaxy (Purple - Blue). I also ordered their witch hat and couple more matching things. I am so excited to coord these and wear these! My only complaint is, as you can see in the photos, they are e...

Of past February

Image
 Hello all! The latter part of February really kicked my butt and so I didn't have time to put together a blog post. But now things are starting to calm down and so I have returned!  In February, I attended Hello!Con Galaxy -virtual lolita event. I participated in the tea party and watched few of the programs they ran. It was super great to have an excuse to dress up.  Metamorphose - Wizard dress with hood   I am not very happy with this coord. Even though every piece of it is nice on their own, I think I need to put them separately. I was trying to do full burgundy look, but my red shoes were far too bright. I think that this was one of those coords that sound good on paper but are not that nice when put on. Either way, this was good learning opportunity for me. I have high collar Lady Sloth blouse coming, and I am thinking of pairing it with this dress. This is a tricky neckline as the dresses top is very high already, so this blouses beautiful lace trim does not s...

Talking about dreams and dresses

Image
 Hi everyone! I watched LovelyLor's latest video about dream dresses and I thought, what a good idea for a blog post!  So dream dress. What is it? To me, there are dream dresses and then there are dream prints that I would be happy to own but probably never will, because of sizing. I am not confident enough to alter my own dresses, so I would need to look into someone who could do that for me. And even though I love the print in guestion, I am not always sure if I am willing to go through the hassle.  So essentially there are two kinds of dream dresses for me: ones that I can wear right away, and ones that need to be altered.  So, I have been into lolita for little over a year, so do I own any of my dream dresses? The aswer is yes! I own few dresses that I would consider dream dresses. For example, My Dear Friends from Metamorphose temps de fille.  I really love this print and this dress. I was not sure about the bustle on the back (yes, there is bustle), but I ...

Magical Artefact and January coord!

Image
 Hello! You might remember that in my wardrobe post I mentioned that I did not get Magical Artefact, because I did not have a job at the time. But recently Metamorphose did a restock of Magical Artefact and I just went for it! I got the Heliotrope colorway and plus plus size, because gotta love that stretch!  Here she is! Forgive me for the strange lighting situation, it was already dark when I took these photos, so I tried to turn my lights up but unfortunately they are quite yellow.  I really love this print and this color! I was quite torn on this and midnight blue, but in the end I thought, when am I gonna see this color again in lolita fashion? It is both good thing and bad thing.  This purple and gold look really regal and mysterious, and I cannot wait to get a witch hat, so I may do some witchy coords with this. I remember from some facebook group that someone was wondering if repetitive print in brand dresses is defective or not, or something like that, and a...

My lolita wardrobe 2021 - Main pieces

Image
 Hi! I got struck with inspiration and took photos of all my main pieces! The wardrobe post didn't need to wait too long at all... I started buying lolita in late 2019, I think November? So this is what I now have. I'll do blouses and accessories later, because the lighting situation is not the best currently. This will be very photo-heavy post, obviously, but I'll give my thoughts on each piece and I'll try to remember when I got them and most importantly, why. Currently I have 11 main pieces, of which 6 are JSKs, 2 OPs and 3 skirts. I have few more coming in mail later this year, for example some Lady Sloth -pieces, so maybe I'll do little unboxing then! So! Let's start with my first piece. GlitterTale - Mystic Gallery JSK Like I mentioned in my introduction post, I got this JSK in February 2020. I fell in love with the color and because its spooky but still not too scary. I really like this print, its all over print, which is rarer in my wardrobe, but I love ...
