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...

Lolita Blog Carnival - Balancing Your Everyday Life With Your Frills

Hello, happy Friday and welcome to...

this week's Lolita Blog Carnival ヾ(｡･ω･｡)

Today the topic is about "Balancing Your Everyday Life With Your Frills"

Lolita Blog Carnival - Skills Every Lolita Should Have

Hello and welcome back to...

...another Lolita Blog Carnival !
Today all around the topic of "Skills every lolita should have" - enjoy!

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?"

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.

More or less recent outfits

Hello again! (~˘▾˘)~

Here are some outfits I wore "recently"... starting from January xD
This one I wore to a Mini-Meet Up in January. I was in the mood for a bit of old-school.

Rundown: Headbow - BTSSB/ necklace - Bonbon Maléfique/ OP, socks, shoes - Bodyline / rest - offbrand

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 ⋆

 "What do you like best about your wardrobe?"

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/

Lolita Blog Carnival - What Changes You Will Make For Your Wardrobe In The New Year

Hello again! ʕ·ᴥ·　ʔ

Oh my, I've been busy as hell.
I had 7 exams only in November and now there are still three more coming up before the Christmas holidays. Around the end of November I felt entirely exhausted but now I feel like my motivation is creeping upwards again. My energy would have been on the rise too, if it wouldn't have been for lab week this past week and therefore having to get up at 4:30 am... ( = . =)

On to this week's topic of LBC!
"What Changes You Will Make For Your Wardrobe In The New Year"

Lolita Blog Carnival - 3 Favourite Brands and Why (Japanese, Taobao, Indie)

Hello there! (人･㉨･)♡

I had this post ready all week and then, amongst the happenings of the last few days, forgot to post it...
Well, I'm a bit late to the party, but:
It's time again for another Lolita Blog Carnival entry!

This week's topic is:
"3 Favourite Brands and Why (Japanese, Taobao, Indie)"

Metamorphose Tea Party Weekend

Hello there! ＼(^▽^＠)ノ

On the 17th of October I attended the Metamorphose Tea Party in Vienna!
On Saturday the general admission started at 1 pm at the Schick Hotel Stefanie.

I enjoyed myself so much! So many pretty lolitas to look at and wonderful outfits for the eyes to feast on. ₍₍ ◝(　ﾟ∀ ﾟ )◟ ⁾⁾

The stalls were nice and the food was as great as I remembered it!
My new flatmate Mia had a VIP ticket and when I arrived she had already bought some stuff at the stalls!

Picture time! Here's what I wore to the tea party:

 

Birthday spoils!

Hello again! (*´・ｖ・)

On 2nd of September I celebrated my birthday with a bunch of friends!
It was so much fun, I think this was the best birthday I've had so far.

In order to give more people the chance to hang out together (and because I wanted to have tea and beer on the same day hehe :P) I held two parties that day.

In the afternoon we went to the Café "Little Britain". I love it so much there, it's just comfortable, the service personell is so nice and of course food and drinks are delicious. I also adore the interior of the café, it has such a cute style. Many of my friends liked it very much aswell, I'm glad about that.
So we indulged ourselves just like we should!

Hamburg & the Grand Lolita Tea Party - Part II

Before the last LBC post I had taken a bit of a break from blogging, so actually it's time to say:
 "Long time no see!"

I've reworked the design of my blog a bit in the hope to make it easier and more comfortable to read - hopefully I've achieved that; I'm quite content with it so far.

Finally I'm managing to finish this! ...how do people say?
"Better late than never." :P

On the second day of the GLTP Hamburg Dani and I got ready and took off directly to the city hall after taking some pictures.

Lolita Blog Carnival - If you could run a Japanese brand for a day, what types of designs would you push?

Welcome to my first Lolita Blog Carnival entry!
I'm glad to participate, this way I can get new ideas and topics to share here.

So, onto the topic of this week's Lolita Blog Carnival:
"If you could run a Japanese brand for a day, what types of designs would you push?"


♥ Babushkas
There are already so many prints showcasing cats and bunnies, but not too many babushka prints yet! I could imagine a more classical or even gothic babushka print, by using more jewel tones or dark shades.

Already existing examples by Emily Temple Cute and Lief

♥ One more shameless Harry Potter inspired print
Give me Hogwarts castle during christmas time, the feast in the great hall or even scenes like the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets; I'd take them all.

Fanplusfriend already made a good example.

 ♥ Bringing on the vintage spirit
They fit well with classic and likewise otome style - hats ranging from straw hats or cloche hats to  birdcage headpieces. Those are accessories which would bring some freshness to the headgear department instead of just bringing out another headbow.

♥ Go crazy with bags
Bags in more crazy shapes! For instance I'd love to see an owl bag matching to the HP inspired print or a babushka/ matryoshka shaped bag to its matching main piece. Maybe a bag in the shape of a pirate ship to match pirate lolita? Or in a skull shape? I have a bat bag which I love to bits!

I hope you enjoyed reading this entry! ( ᐛ )و

Hamburg & the Grand Lolita Tea Party - Part I

Hello hello!

I've been travelling again, so there's finally something more exciting to write about!
The Grand Lolita Tea Party itself has been extensively discussed and gossiped about online, so I'm not going to add anything to that.

On Thursday 18th I already had arrived in Hamburg by bus and visited the Planetarium, which was really nice!

In the evening Dani joined me at the hostel and we met up with Kyra and Michaela for dinner. It was so much fun, the food and cocktails were delicious!

Pizza + cocktails = :D <3

Bring & Buy Mini Haul and Dear Celine blouses review

Hello there!

I'm back again and I'm going to throw this post in here - I've been wanting to post about this for months - before I post about some more recent stuff which has been happening!

So a good while ago the Gothic Lolita Austria community held a 'Bring & Buy' event for J-Fashion. I went there with the intenion to buy only what I 'need' at the moment, but oh well...
The items are somewhat in the categories of what I wanted though, so it's cool anyways ;)

I got this BTSSB cutsew in black and white. I really love the lace on the collar and the little details, as well as the colour combination in general.

✵ Music Discoveries : No Frills Twins ✵

Back again!

This time with a series that I'd like to start doing on this blog.
Say hello to 'Music Discoveries' !

Whenever I find time to do so and am energetic enough I like to roam around the internet, on the lookout for fresh, good music!

It happens quite often that I get hooked on some good new stuff  - and this I'd like to share.
Time to spread some music! (•ˇ‿ˇ•)

...onto tonight's catch!

Stumbled across them while browsing through YouTube and now I can't stop listening:

NO FRILLS TWINS

 

June, a true Lolita Event Month

Hello hello again!

I'm really lucky this month it seems - even though I'm kind of buried in exams and studies there are some Lolita related events happening in June about which I'm really excited! (* >ω<)

1. Last weekend was the summer season's International Lolita Day!

2. I'm going to attend the Grand Lolita Tea Party in Hamburg from 19-20th of June!

3. On the 28th some Austrian Lolitas will travel to Gmund, where we will take a boat trip and go out for some delicious food together!

 I'm SO excited about all of them!
