I ran into some of my bestest friends from high school at the con! ♥

An adorable and sweet girl dressed as Pudding from Tokyo Mew Mew!

Same girl as above but later that night. Still freaking adorable!

We danced a ton at the rave too!

Met and traded with awesomely cool kandi kids! I was so excited to meet more of my own kind! ♥

Another wonderful lolita I know. I am so jelly of her AP witch set!

Group shot #1

Group shot #2

It was near impossible to get everyone together in one place for photos! D:

My secret wish finally came true when Miroku from InuYasha asked me to bear his(her) children! ♥

...

and then...

...sorry Sango...

One of the best Lulu and Chi cosplays I've ever had the fortune to see in person! ♥

It was so hot dancing at the con's rave I had to tie my pigtail clip things up into a bun on my wig and take off my blouse! oh noes!!! Just kidding. I really don't care about that stuff! XP

 Sunday:

Sunday's makeup. Not too much going on since I had work later on that day. :[

This is one of Bodyline's Wa Lolita yukatas. It is actually very nice in person!

Just in case anyone was wondering how the actual quality is! :P

I actually made this jsk but this cutie bought it from me at the swap meet the previous day since I no longer fit in the chest area. She looks soooo cute in it though! I'm really glad she has it now! ♥

OK!!!!! So thats the majority of the photos from Con-Nichiwa! It was tons of fun and I hope to be able to go to another convention again soon! ♥

Strawberry Lolita Tea Party Meet-up

Ok! So since I have a lot fewer photos from the meet, I will share them first! But first, outfit snap from yesterday!

Allthough I've been going through a faze where I am eliminating the majority of my sweet items, I will never ever EVER get rid of my beloved Whip Magic dresses!!! So I tried to mix it with black, and I still love it, and feel comfortable enough to wear it out! ♥ Thank goodness!

Awesome people I know! ♥

Group shot. And that little doggie in the front by me is my mamas dog Daisy. I had to babysit her for the weekend so she traveled with us to the meet. :]

A newer lolita, but shes so cute and so well put together allready! ♥ Please excuse my shorts showing from beneath my dress! DX

And finally jerk-face's car. My final photo I took in retaliation as we drove away.

Thats it for now! I hope to have the photos from the con up soon! There are sooooo many!!!!!

Strawberry Lolita Tea Party

Yesterday I traveled up to phoenix in a car packed with lolitas to the second anual Strawberry Lolita Tea Party! Now dispite being lost for about half an hour because Google Maps sucks, once we were finally found and rescued, we all had a blast!

My outfit:
jsk: btssb
Blouse: meta
Hair corsage: claire's
Necklace, braceletes: forever21, charlotte russe, offbrand
wristcuffs: AatP
Boots: secret shop
Tights: ebay

I am really happy how my outfit turned out! I bever know what to wear with this dress because It is my only ivory colored piece I have aside from my AatP wristcuffs! But I think I balanced out the white and the ivory nicely here. I wish I had more brown pieces to pair with it. Or I wonder if black would look ok too? I really love this dress and wish I had more ways to wear it!

I only took one photo myself, because I usually ALWAYS forget I have my camera, but I should be able to upload everything tomorrow from this meet, and from Con-Nichiwa! :]

I had a blast and I met new people and saw old friends!

The only thing bad was some guys disgusting behavior at a gas station. While everyone had been kind and plesant all day long, as we were gasing up for the trip home, soke guy started to take our photos without permission. That set one of my friends off and she started to lecture him. I told him we would gladly let him take a photos, all we ask is the common courtesy of asking first. He then replies thats what we get for "dressing like its halloween." I cant believe some peoples lack of manners! So after that comment, I was done and I broke out my camera and started taking pictures back which he promptly tried to dodge. I think that was the most ridiculouse attitude I have ever run into wearing lolita.

Just because we dress sweet and innocent dosent mean were going to take that stuff lying down. Especially when were with friends, we stick up for eachother and got eachothers back!

Con-Nichiwa 2012

Hi! I am finally back! I had such a great weekend at the con! It was so much fun and I ran into a bunch of old friends I never thought I would see! Allthough I havnt had the chance to upload all my photos, I did manage to find other photos of my outfits to share for the time being to go along with the rundown of the con!

FRIDAY- Day 1

Cyber/raver lolita
headbow, jsk, otk socks: Angelic Pretty
Blouse: Metamorphose
Wristcuffs: Milky Way Cute
fuzzy wrist cuffs, legwarmers: Adjamba
Mask, mini bow, cupcake hair tie, kandi bracelets: made by me
Fishnets: ebay

For starters, the convention was only a 15-20 minuet drive away from my house, and it was $45 for the whole weekend pass. So I didnt spend much and I also didnt have to worry about getting a room at the hotel. I think I only spent about $15 in gas driving back and forth every day, and thats only because I have a horrible sence of direction and I got lost the first day, saturday i got lost trying to find a Carl's Jr to get some burgers, and somehow I got lost driving home on sunday.

While there wasnt much going on the first day, It was a nice way to scope out the area, meet a few people before it got too hectic, and check out the vendors hall. I actually ended up running into two of my best friends from high school! So that was really fun to catch up! I tried my hand at doing the para para dance to the Carmel Song, and failed epicly, but it was loads of fun! I even ended up being in the J-fasion show! I was really scared at first, but as soon as I was on stage it all went away. I really hope I have a chance to do it again!



SATURDAY- Day 2

Deco/OTT/Bittedsweet...I really dont know how to classify this one since all the elements I have included are all things I love...I guess this is my inner lolita that I want to look like 24/7! XP
Jsk, headbow, socks, shoes: Angelic Pretty
Blouse: Meta
Gloves: vintage
Everything else: handmade, claire's, off brand

I ended up leaving early Friday night so I could spend the rest of the night preparing for Saturday. The frst thing I went to was a Gyaru pannel, which is another style I have loved from afar (mainly hime gyaru). It was really interesting seeing all the different styles of gyaru! I also saw a lolita coordination pannel. Though I dont think I need it, its always fun never the less to see what others have to say about lolita, and it was fun to see the new lolita faces! We also had a swap-meet during the con. We got to go threw eachothers things, and even the con-goers got to look too. I ended up selling about half the things I brought with me, which were 2 GIANT tote bags. Most of the people who bought from me were people who were new to the fashion or who were interested in starting. I will admit I was very annoyed at some people who scoffed at my prices, not knowing how much it originally cost ME! But if they do actually pursue lolita, they will learn! Haha XD

After the swap was over, it was time to get down to some serious business at the con rave! It was my first con rave so I was really excited!! Though I was telling someone I was excited because Ive only gone to real raves in the past, but I have a lot of online friends who have only gone to con raves, and I was eagre to experience on, and he just looks at me and said, "I know your dressed in lolita, but you dont have to be a snob!"

I was so shocked! I allready have a fear of people calling me a snobby lolita at cons since I hear a lot of stories of newbies having bad experiences with the more experienced girls. But that was so insulting to me to be called a snob! Anywho, asie from that it was tons of fun and I danced a ton! Untill the DJ played dubstep...which I admit I like dubstep, but I DONT KNOW HOW TO DANCE TO THAT!!! In fact, I dont know anyone who knows really how to dance to it. Its just undanceable! XD And the DJ wasnt very good af transitioning from song to song. The transitions were not smooth at all. He would go from a pretty trance like dance beat straight into some wierd rock music, to some super fast upbeat anime sounding song. It was kind of odd, but I was happy and danced, and I even traded kandi with a few people! I cant wait for my next con and con rave!

SUNDAY- Day 3

Sweet Lolita
Hair accessories: Angelic Pretty, claire's, offbrand
Blouse: rue21
Jsk: Angelic Pretty
Wristcuffs: Baby, the Stars Shine Bright
Bracelets: made by me
(Not shown)
Shoes: Bodyline
OTK socks: Angelic Pretty

This was a fun and relaxing day. I went to a few cosplay pannels, but mainly just walked around before I had to leave for reality. I bought a few things from vendors and got lasf minuet photos. I had to leave a bit early because I did have work later which sucked, but it wasnt so bad.

I cant wait to have another chance to go to a convention! I cant believe its been 5 years since my last one! Stay tuned and I will be posting all the pictures from this past weekend! I have so many it needs a post all too themselves! It will also include makeup closeups and hopefully better/lezs blurry photos of my outfits.

Hope you all enjoyed! c:

Where Did I Dissapear To?

This past week I have been so busy! First of all, I got several orders at the same time at my etsy store. Here are the things I have been working on:

Glow in the dark rainbow mask

Batman belt

Rainbow beadkini

And now I am working on another beadkini thats going to have tons of purple daisys all over it! Which is actually an idea I have wanted to try for a really long time, but never got around to it.

Aside from that, what has really kept me away and busy was a little baby mouse, who I just called Baby.

My ex boyfriend and I had a snake together. Now that we dont live together and arnt with eachother, our variable king snake Iris lives with him. A little over a week ago I went to bisit the both of them, and I picked up a baby mouse on the way over. For whatever reason, Iris didnt eat. So, I started to feel bad and didnt want the baby mouse to starve to death if it wasnt going to be eaten, so I took her home with me and took care of her.

This past week my life has been filled with constant worry if I wasnt home to take care of her, smelling like baby formula when I was home, and when I would go spend the night at my sort-of-boyfriend-but-im-not-ready-for-that-yet's house, I would pack a bag of baby suplies and bring her over with me so I could still see him, and still take care of her at the same time. Unfortunately when I woke up for her feeding, I discovered that she had passed on.

I tried really hard to not get attached just in case she didnt make it. I didnt want to know her gender or give her a name. But a week of hand feeding a baby like that with a bottle or a miniature droper, seeing that she was in fact a girl (male mice and rats do not have nipples, so eventhough i didnt want to know the gender, as soon as I saw, I knew), and by just refering to her as baby, it ended up sticking as her name, I couldnt help but become attached, so now I am quite devestated.

But, I suppose on a happier note, I am going to attend my first convention in 5 years! I am going all 3 days, and my sort-of-boyfriend said he will try to go with me too! So now I have an excuse to wear my new raver lolita outfit even sooner! Plus try an OTT outfit with my black Milky Planet jsk! It is next weekend and I am really excited! Plus, all of the lolitas will be in the same place, so its going to be loads of fun!

Though I have been to conventions before, I never went to any of the con raves. So next weekend will be my first one! To tell you the truth, I am sort of nervouse about it. I am use to real raves, so I dont know what to expect from a con rave. I have heard scary storie of people being snooty, and when asked to trade kandi, they will stick up their noses at you. Wich of course is the opposite of the real raves I go to where everyone is friendly and everyone wants to trade, and you can feel the PLUR in the air! (Plur or plurr is the rave motto for pleace love unity arespect and responsibility)

But I will have tons of pictures to share next week from the event! I am so darn excited!!!!! XD

Experimental Lolita + my Etsy

Well I have been juggling cyber lolita outfits in my head for a while now, but I dont have the money to do exactly what I want. However, after going through my events page on Facebook, I realized that on April 28th, I have two events I really want to go to on the same day! AND they just happen to be at the same park! The first event is our May Day picnic for all the Arizona lolitas. The second is the first raver picnic of the season. Since I know that the raver picnics usually last all night long, and I know that the May Day picnic will last till about 3:00, I figured I could just walk across the park to join in the raver kid festivities.

I havnt had the time or money to go to a rave recently. The last one I went to was back in November. I really misss it a lot! I miss all of my raver friends! Unfortunately we are so busy with our own lives that raves are the only time we ever get to see eachother.

So, at first I was planning an outfit for the May Day picnic, but then I was thinkng, that wouldnt do so well at a raver party. All though for summer International Lolita Day last year I wore lolita to a rave, but that was a speciql case. So I figured why not create an outfir that combines my love for the rave world, AND lolita? I have a ton of beads, so yesterday I went to work on a few accessories.

A kandi mask, a bow, and a cupcake hair tie. I am contemplating making kandi goggles, but I am not sure if thats going to be too much on my head since I am also obviously going to have my headbow on as well.

I am going to wear my Whip Magic jsk in black, and wear my pink fuzzy legwarmers and wrist cuffs. I am really excited for this outfit! It is going to combine the two things I love most, AND it will be with my favorite dress!

Here is a rough preview of what it will look like:

But I think I am eithet going to wear black otk socks instead. Possibly with my pink glittery fishnet tights on top if I can find them! ;P

As for makeup, I have no idea what to do!!! All I know for certain is that I will be wearing my green cercle lenses. Here is a closeup of what the mask looks like worn. I also have my circle lenses in right now, but please excuse my boring every-day makeup. Whatever I decide on is going to be very glittery, and probably have lots of swirls or something going on.

And while I really wanted to continue with the 30 day challange, I can not at the moment. For one, one of the people in my building has bed bugs. The infestation is so bad they are having reports of them now moveing into other peopls rooms. When I found this out yesterday I was incredibly grossed out! I even slept at my gentelman caller's house last night so I wouldnt have to be here. I have never had a bug problem. I like to keep my place spotless and clean! Even with all the animals I have, I always make sure no cage is smelly and I vaccum regularly! So now that this infestation is going on in the room beneath me, the exterminators came in and tore my apartment apart to set up bug traps, and spray down my floor and walls. They also gased the heck out of the breeding grounds down stairs, so hopefully that will be the end of that! So now that my place is torn apart, I dont really want to take pictures of my room for the next challange.

Secondly, I have been really busy with my Etsy shop. I make and sell custom beaded bikini tops and belts. I have also done purses and skirts for myself and others. I recently got several orders so I have been a bit busy and havnt been able to have the time to continue with the challange, and then the bug problem happened :[

Anyways, here is the latest order I have finished. This is for an A-cup, and the rainbow pattern is glow in the dark.

The next order I will be working on is a Batman belt. It is going to be awesome, and I will definately share pictures of when it is done!

I think after I finish all of my current orders I might make a few more masks and list them and see how they go. If they sell allright then I might add them to my list of custom pieces that can be ordered.

So what do you think of my outfit and newest creations? I would really like some con crit for all of them! Thanks so much in advance for your info!
