Day 1 – 10 things about your lolita bubble.

1. It's 99% online.

The reason for this being...
2. It's secretive.
 This is both in regards to my irl life, but also because I'm so bad at sharing what I'm doing online as well...
3. I use lolita to push myself creatively.
I have a handful of artsty hobbies and getting into lolita brought me out (and then back in at times) of a huge slump creatively. I picked up drawing again to draw coordinates and lolita OCs, I started sewing more challenging garments for lolita and altering more professionally, I started crocheting and knitting, not exactly to make lolita pieces, but because I loved the delicacy of lolita and I wanted more skills to bring that out of me more!
4. I have a very specific color scheme.
Black, white and cream for main colors and grey, brown and red for accent colors. I only have 2 pieces that stray from this! A dusty pink VM skirt and an olive sailor op from AP!
5. I have never twinned with someone!
I really want to! It's just never come up exactly. I really love odd blouses. While I think a blouse with a keyhole cutout is my best purchase, not many other people are going to own that...

Back again with another project based on Heart E's winged accessories. This time, for winter!

I adore you Heart E

2022 Wardrobe

OK its after wardrobe season..... BUT I just really wanted to have a comprehensive thing. I could not find a good/consistent place to take pics so, most the pics are from lolibrary. A few I took myself. Some are from closetchild/wunderwelt. This post is very ugly and messy!!! So beware!!!!!

The sections in order are: OPs, JSKs, skirts, headwear, blouses, etc, Outerwear and then bags.

Detachable Wings

Heart E's angel wing bags are one of my favorite items... I know I'll never be able to get my hands on an original, so I decided to make one of my own. I got comments on mine, so I thought some people might find this useful!

Lolita 50 Questions

I'm a little under the weather so I decided to try something simple to distract from how frumpy I feel. I actually saw this originally on neocities! (Side note: my neocities webpage says I haven't updated it 9 months...😰..). Anyways, I found the original LJ post so I decided to give it a go!
