Spring Meet Up and Teekränzchen



So in order to not let my blog die completely until I finally manage to post a bit about beautiful Norway, here comes a fresh addition! (´。・v・。`)



Yesterday my local community held our seasonal spring meetup!

"Goodbye and thanks for all the fish"

...is a fitting phrase when one leaves Norway!


Now I have been back in Austria for over a month and things have been just as I had expected them to be: busy!

Lolita Blog Carnival - Frillies You Find Inspirational

Hello!

It's time for another LBC post - this time it is about people who inspire me in lolita fashion!

I mostly look to Instagram and tumblr for inspiration and enjoy following a ton of lolitas from all over the world! Instagram is probably the app I use most in general - what Instagram and twitter are to me is like reading a newspaper to other people (ノ^∇^)

During breakfast I already like to browse through my feed~

But who are the people whose coordinates and styles I like best?

 Here's my selection for this post:

Lolita Blog Carnival - What Would You Change About Your Wardrobe

Welcome back to another LBC post!

This week I'm going to talk about what I would change about my wardrobe!

I have been part of lolita fashion for about 9 years now and  have thus hoarded a good amount of clothes so far. As I like a wide range of styles my wardrobe is not very cohesive, yet there are certain themes that occur quite frequently (- for instance biscuits!)

Lolita Blog Carnival - Lolita New Year's Resolutions

Hello again,

First let's take a look back on old resolutions that I had made in the past years!


In 2015 my goals for lolita fashion were more defined:
Don't buy too many main pieces, get more blouses and accessories...

2016 is over

Finally.

And I'm back to tell what I have been up to during the last months of 2016!



For a lot of people 2016 hasn't been the best year and neither has it been for me. I'm going to start the year's review with the bad stuff :

Onto new adventures

Hello there!

So right now I am writing this post from Amsterdam airport...
I have been thinking about sharing this earlier, but haven't come around to it until now -
I am about to undertake the probably greatest adventure of my life so far...

I am moving to Bergen, Norway.

Lolita Blog Carnival - What keeps you involved in lolita?

Hello again!
I've been so busy I had hardly time for anything! ( *∵* )

But I've been wanting to share some of the stuff I have been up to for quite a while, so hopefully I'll be posting more regularly again 。(*^▽^*)ゞ

So first off I wanted to take part in this Lolita Blog Carnival; a bit of an easier way to get back into blogging I guess!


This week's subject was: "What keeps you involved in lolita?"

Personal music updates!

Welcome back! ꒰๑˃꒵˂꒱◞ ♪⋆ฺ。

Today I'm going to talk again about music - this time on a more personal level!
As some of you might already know I am active as a singer/songwriter in some musical projects.

Somehow these projects also reflect the diversity of my own taste in music. I love metal and classical music, but also have a big soft spot for jazz and funk, acapella singing and many more. People love to put others into categories and so it has happened to me that people reacted surprised when they found out "Oh, she does listen to something else but metal".

Shocking, right?
Let me show you a bit of this musical diversity I'm talking about:

Yuki Matsuri Tea Party & haul

Hello hello~ ♪

I've been absent for a bit - ironically the most stressful phase of the semester started today...
Now I really have to take care of my stress levels and make sure that I relax enough while staying on top of my duties for college  - I'm trying my best. 

I'm a good bit late in posting about this event , but as always - my motto is "better late than never" xD
So in February (yes, February) a small tea party took place in the museum of art history in Vienna.

Catching up & news from the mail

Hello there! ♡

I haven't been updating regularly, so what have I been up to?
February was split into being a lazy book-devouring bum and hard core studying for exams. Throughout March I basically never stopped studying, so there's not too much to tell :')

I got some exciting things in the mail though! (Г・ω・)г

Back in October already I had ordered a short coat and beret from Dear Celine. I really like their blouses so I wanted to give that coat a go. They finally arrived in February!

Lolita Blog Carnival - What do you like best about your wardrobe?

Hello again
and oh, it's March already! (゜▽゜;)

...once again time seems to fly by, doesn't it?
Currently I am busy with exam preparations (again) -  so actually I have to blame the lack of recent entries on my laziness throughout  85% of February and on my busy schedule (which has hit me full in the face after the holidays had ended, ugh and I immediately got a cold).

So, it's time for another Lolita Blog Carnival !
I thought this topic was fun and wanted to give it a go ⋆

Lolita wardrobe 2016

Hello again! ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ

So I filmed a wardrobe video a couple of days ago but was a bit delayed by exams and some annoying thumbnail-related issues on YouTube :P

Here you go:


Sadly the dark gray/black pieces have been deprived of all of their textures or details on camera :(
I feel pretty content about my wardrobe and despite my never-ending thirst for main pieces I'm hoping to get new shoes and blouses this year.

Right now I'm enjoying the semester break and have submerged into intense phases of reading a series of books :)
I have started reading Trudi Canavan's Black Magician Trilogy and have reached the third book so far.

Later this week a friend of mine from college is hosting a "Harry Potter Marathon" where a group of people from college will gather at her place in attempt to watch all of the HP movies in two days...
That will be great fun for sure :D


Have a great week
& thank you for reading ʕ/ ·ᴥ·ʔ/

Goodbye 2015!

Hello again -  one last time for this year! ᵔᴥᵔ


2015 is almost over and oh my, it has been an adventure once more! ʕ•̀ω•́ʔ✧
For the first time I managed to keep this blog updated at least monthly (*applaudes oneself*), woohoo!

This year held many surprises and I made new friends and a lot of music; things for which I am truly grateful. It unfortunately wasn't only a year filled with happiness - the saddest memories of this year are definitely my grandfather's passing and the sale of my grandparents' house in the countryside. Those I will keep close to my heart; nevertheless I'd rather talk now about the good things that happened in 2015:

☆ My band played one of the biggest Metal festivals in Europe - the Metaldays. The show was really a blast and I feel so happy about the positive response we got from lots of people!

☆ In June I went to attend my first big Lolita tea party event abroad - in Hamburg, Germany! It was so much fun and I met many lolitas I had only known via Instagram or other places of the internet before, which made me really happy.

☆ Generally this year held many lolita adventures for me! The trip to Hamburg, several meetups - one even at a lake - and another tea party in October in Vienna.

☆ I was able to travel at least a bit: to Hamburg for the Grand Lolita Tea Party, to Slovenia for Metaldays and to Prague for a Leprous concert :)

☆ I've met such amazing people this year! Thank you for making my life a better one <3 <3 <3

☆ Another big mention this past year belongs to music.
I was able to participate in some cover projects my friend Gonzalo made and also did some fun recordings with my band.
I also went to so many fun concerts and was able to see old and new favourites!
The best concerts this year were definitely the ones of Ghost, Soen and Leprous. I'm glad I was able to share my joy (and fangirl-moments) with my friends; enjoying concerts together just doubles the fun!

Some highlights of my 2015:
