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!

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"

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 - 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.

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

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!

My "Kawaii Week"

Hello there!

As promised and just a little belated - here's my 'Kawaii Week'!

The plan was to wear cute stuff and lots of lolita during my one week of Easter break. I met up with friends whom I hadn't seen in a long time and tried to spend my time enjoying (and erhm spoiling) myself!

Day #1:

I went to my friend Mimi's birthday brunch (where the hostess had prepared incredible amounts of marvellous food and we started to drink cocktails in the early afternoon - silly me didn't take any pictures!) and spent some lovely time there. It really had been long since I had enjoyed myself as much as I did that afternoon. ʕ·ᴥ·　ʔ

 Silly pose because my camera's battery died after just a few shots and this turned out OKish, so here you go xD

and a selfie!

Sweets and Updates

Hello there again! ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ

I spent the last month studying like a maniac - I had some very important exams and so my social life was basically set on pause for that time!

Seldomly I managed to take a little time off and met up with friends.

Once I met up with my friend Claudia for lunch at the Jewish Museum of Vienna, which has a really good café attached to it. The food is so extremely lovely, I wish I could go there more often!

 Yummy tahini salad with falafel and ice tea ʕ•̀ω•́ʔ✧

Afterwards we went for a walk around the district and went to get some sweets.
Claudia had never tried macarons before, so I suggested to try some at Café Oberlaa!

Left to right: vanilla, chestnut, salted caramel, orange, raspberry and 2x currant

It's Lolita Meet Up Time!

Hello there!

This year I already was able to visit two lolita meet ups so far! ʕ　·ᴥ·ʔ

The first one already took place in January in Linz!
I was glad I had an opportunity to visit Linz again, I hadn't been there in many years. We met up at the train station and went for lunch to an Asian restaurant. Afterwards we continued to the Schlossmuseum, a museum containing collections focused on cultural studies. It was really vast, we didn't even have time to see everything!

The meet up was topped off by a visit to the café of the museum where we enjoyed some hot drinks and sweets. I really enjoyed myself at the meet-up, it was nice to spend time together again!

 

 My outfit:

Bonnet - Lily of the Valley

JSK - Pietro Angel by Innocent World

Blouse - Innocent World

Bag - BPN

Tights, Shoes - Offbrand

My thanks for the pictures go to Lolita Fashion Österreich!

Happy International Lolita Day!

Yay!

On 7th of June again International Lolita Day had arrived!
Some of the local Lolitas had decided to meet up and I was happy I could join in too!

 credit for this picture goes to the lovely Varis Varjo !

We met up at Minoritenplatz and took some pictures at the church, because it offered a pretty background!

I had decided to go for sweet this time!
The dress once belonged to a friend of mine, I've always admired it and now, a couple of years later, it is part of my wardrobe ;)

It was really hot outside, so the cotton fabric was definitely the perfect choice!

 

I also always enjoy when I am able to show my tattoo while wearing lolita! 

(Makes me feel all badass, haha :P)

Meet-Up Time!

Hello there!

Once again I'm a biiit late with things but today I'd like to tell you a bit about two lolita meet ups we had in Vienna!

The first one took place on 12th of April!

This was a rather spontaneous meet-up  - it basically came to be because Annie, a lolita new to our community, wanted to get to know the local lolitas.

We met in the early afternoon at the Hofmobiliendepot and took some pictures in the area in front of the museum.

The exhibition was called 'Böse Dinge' and displayed all sorts of curious items which people had collected over time and of which most never have had any practical use to them.

Spring Hauls & more

Hi there!

So recently I made a spontaneous purchase and also some more parcels have arrived, one of them containing one of my dream-print items :D

A while ago Sylvia and I went to get some delicious donuts at 'Tasty Donuts'.
It is in the same street as the 'Humana' second-hand shop, so we figured we'd stop by there before induldging on donuts.

*drools*

Lolita Meet Up in February

Hello again dear readers,

So about two weeks ago (yes, I'm a little behind) a Lolita Meet Up took place in Vienna!
I had been looking forward to this meet up since it had been announced, so I was really excited!

The lolitas gathered next to an underground station before we started off towards the National Library.
I filmed our group a little bit while walking through the inner city of Vienna (I'll add the video during the next days).


Then we took pictures at a square right next to the library!

 pretty Natascha! 

Day 6 – 10 things you can’t live without in lolita

Hello there!

Today I'm going to be part of an oboe class concert, so I'll have to get everything done and get rehearsing :)

01. A proper petticoat! Without poof it's just half the fun!

02. Parasols. I love parasols, because I'm super pale and getting all burned in summer, so in order to protect my fair skin I rather prefer to go out carrying a beautiful parasol with me. They even look so pretty!

03. Loliable coats for winter. It's pretty hard to find one in our normal stores around here and if you do, then they mostly aren't that warm - but still - they make wearing Lolita in winter so much more nice!

04. Wigs. Sometimes I'm just waaaay too lazy to make my hair look good or I just want another hair colour instantly because it would fit way better with the style I want to wear on a certain day xD


05. Headgear. Put on a hat and you feel like a real lady (or a real sir ;))

06. Cute cardigans to go with your outfits.

07. Hair styling tools. My natural hair is wavy/ sometimes more messy curls, so it just likes to basically do whatever it wants and not what I want :')

08. A good variety of lolita shoes. It sometimes is a real pain in the butt that some shoes are not wearable in every weather; plus of course you have to match the shoes to the colourway of your dresses!
Solution: buy more shoes xD

09. Shopping Services! Thanks for existing, you make life for oversea lolitas so much easier.

10. Having fun with the fashion. To me coordinating a new outfit or an outift that I like is just so much fun!

I'm ending this post with a tartan outfit I wore yesterday! And I adore my bat clip <3


Thanks for reading, have a good day!

Day 2 – 10 things you love in lolita

Good evening everyone!

Today is Sunday and I was able to wear Lolita for meeting up with my band members from Desire .
I'm a big Emily Temple Cute fan and one of my favourite dresses of theirs is the "Alice Tea Party" JSK which I wore today!




On to today's challenge topic!


01. To feel as if you just descended from another planet. A frilly one of course.

02. The shape of the clothes. Full, poofy and all romantic.

03. The cuteness. In my opinion nothing is fuller of cutesiness than dresses with lots of frills, lace and adorable prints on them.

04. Spending time with other Lolitas and of course, making friends :)
It's just so nice to have some buddies with whom you can babble freely about all things Lolita.

05. All the different sorts of things to wear on your head! All the bows! Hats! Bonnets! Wigs!

06. Second hand shopping. If it weren't for second hand stuff my closet would probably be all empty.

07. Bags of all shapes and sizes. Gone are the days of boring bags in similar shape; in Lolita you can literally get it in whatever shape you desire, no matter if star, heart, book, ribbon, candy, bear, horse, bunny....etc.

08. I'm totally addicted to well written Lolita blogs, as well as interesting vlogs. Sometimes I just spend my time watching Lolita themed channels on YT.

09. Crazy things you stumble across when you're interested in Lolita related stuff. Like the movie 'Kamikaze Girls' which I adore to bits!

10. Lolita fashion magazines. Every time I have the opportunity to grab one of them, I do. I could spend hours drooling over beautiful coordinates and sometimes I imagine what I'd buy if I had all the moneyz x'D

Ah...all the Lolita joy...
thinking about all the beautiful stuff makes me love Lolita even more!

Thanks for reading & see you tomorrow :)
