A parcel a day...

...keeps the money away... quite definitely!

Hello again!

As I already mentioned in my previous post since the beginning of this year I've totally gone bananas on all sorts of lolita clothing/accessories...

In the last days of 2013 I ordered stuff for the first time in ages... and that clearly was the beginning of my wallet's downfall.

It's crazy, but I love it.
Last week there was almost every day a new parcel in the mail for me.
I stopped buying stuff after February... but ermh well ... started again at the end of March :'D

So let's get to it!
Some of my most recent arrivals:

*unpacking the treasures*

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 8 – 10 songs that inspire you for lolita

Hello!

The exam weeks at university are finally over & now I'm on holidays in the mountains ❤

Wah these past weeks were terrible; my eyes felt like they were going to pop out any minute; they hurt SO much because I had been sitting far too long in front of the screen, studying... X___x

Plus I'm such a clumsy kid I managed to miss day 8 and did day 9 first...
Therefore I'm establishing the order again by doing day 8 now !
Let's start!

01. As you might already know I'm a deerstalker fan, so of course I like MC Melod¥ Doll aswell xD

 Buy Mo' Brand - MC Melod¥ Doll

Day 9 – 10 things you will never do in lolita

Good evening!
Onto today's challenge topic!

01. Sit around in Lolita at home. I'd be constantly worried about wrinkling my clothes or getting cat hair on them, so I always change into whatever else I can grab as soon as I'm home.

02. Partying in lolita. I just hate it when the smell of tobacco sticks to my clothes and I especially don't want it on my Lolita stuff. Also drunk people tend to knock their drinks over more often and voilà there'd be another disaster.

03. What I'll never do again if possible: travel longer in Lolita. I don't think it's too uncomfortable, but  in my opinion long distance flights are spent best in fluffy jogging pants.

04. Go to lab class in Lolita. No lolita for me while tossing around chemical substances!

05. Paint in Lolita. I once got acrylic colour on a shirt I had just bought - and oh I don't want to imagine it on my dear Lolita stuff !

06. Go to my summer job in Lolita. We don't have an aircon and my colleague refuses to open any of the windows; so I basically sit in there with as little clothes on as possible xD

07. Go to rock/metal concerts in Lolita. Again drunk people and all the squishing - I'm mostly in the front where the real party is going on, so it's all crowded! Plus again drunk people with no control over their beer cups whatsoever!

08. Go to a music festival in Lolita. Simply, nope.

09. Go to a job interview in Lolita. No need to shock people unaware of Lolita on that occasion. Although I also share the opinion that one's abilities should be ranked higher than one's looks or way to dress, society unfortunately doesn't think that way. Therefore I'd still be myself but kind of 'join in on the game' for a job interview.

10. Wear Lolita before kickboxing class. Would be way too much of a fuzz to get in and out of all those clothes.

 

Okay back to my studies... 

On Monday I have a huge exam and IT'S SO HORRIBLY boring to study for it! *rant*

Take care & thank you for reading!

Randomness #01

About something I found a few days ago...

I've been adoring deerstalker pictures video projects for a long time. They make such beautiful, hilarious and creative Lolita themed videos :)

Their newest video though is my favourite so far! I already watched it a billion times since it was released three days ago x')

It's the first part of a documentary about 'The Secret Life of the Lolita' ; which showcases a rare glimpse into the daily life of a Lolita ;)

I looove it !

Haha, I wish every day was like that... hunting postmen and getting parcels filled with beautiful dresses ;)

What do you think about this video?

Enjoy!

Day 7 – 10 people who inspire your lolita style

 Hello and welcome to the challenge of the day!


Alrighty, this is going to be pretty though to answer. I actually don't have specific people who inspire my style, but I do have some sources of inspiration so I'm going to talk about those instead.

01. The daily_lolita community on livejournal. I like browsing through pictures and looking at the pretty coordinates of Lolitas from all over the world. I then take ideas from there and come up with my own looks.

02. Local lolitas. Although I see most of them every few months, some Lolitas of our community inspire me to create new outfits when I meet up with them. This is the best opportunity to collect some real-life fashion ideas!

03. Lolita themed YouTube vlogs. I'm a real sucker for those. I especially like the 'Lolita Blog Carnival' videos and wardrobe or  other lolita tag posts. Make me want to vlog again. My favourite channel of all time is my friend Mimi's (because she's the coolest).

04. Lolita themed documentaries. There are very few that actually are well made, but I adore 'Sugar Coated' by 72U and well also something more non-documentary, but absolutely hilarious are the projects of deerstalkerpictures. Love love love it.

05. Magazines. I love to take my time and browse through issues of for instance the Gothic Lolita Bible and check out the newest trends and craziness brands and fashion lovers have come up with.

06. Blogs written by Lolitas. I follow a trizillion of Lolita blogs and now even my tumblr has been totally lolified because I follow too many Lolita tumblrs so my dashboard is all kawaii now :P

07. Other styles I like. I take inspiration from old fashioned and vintage stuff, mori girl style, gothic style and many more that come my way.

08. My very own fantasies. I've had quite the imaginative, creative head since childhood and this head helps me to think of new craziness to combine, mix and match and also incooperate new ideas into my style.

09. Period dramas. Watching actresses wearing beautiful dresses, ribbons and bonnets... this is what I need to inspire me to wear more Classic lolita haha :)

 I think I'm out of ideas now, so yeah  no 10th point, sorry xD

 

I'm really fond of the fact that my blog is so active now. Also I've immersed into a phase of total lolita craze; I wish I had the bank account of Bill Gates (guess it would soon be down to half of its previous content regarding my current wanting-to-get-all-the-things mania x')); 

Still I'm more determined than ever to extend my lolita wardrobe and strengthen its weak points (socks, blouses, accessories), even though that will mean that I won't travel as much this year.

Have a good day & thank you for reading!
