Isn't she cute? I named her Rosie!
She's sitting next to a picture of my first cat, Chloe, who I had when I was very little.

Lace Over Short Umbrella:

It looks small, but it's actually pretty big!
It also has the option to make the length go shorter, but I prefer to keep the neck (IDK what to call it ^^; longer.

Wow! Look at those sleeves!


Cute rose buttons!

Offbrand:
Cute hair ribbons!

These were on sale for 40 cents! (Together!)

Thrifted:
Mini-Lolita Dress

Found this at a thrift store! It's hanging on my closet curtains now~

Hand-made:

I decorated these cute picture frames to display some of my post cards.

I'm currently in the middle of using a BtSSB shopping bag to decorate my clock!

Bonus! When I came back from taking pictures of Rosie and my parasol, my dog, Dale, was sitting at my computer!

Uh-oh! I caught him!
Also,  in the background you can see the best hand lotion (Goldbond Daily Moisturizing) ever,
and the best cream soda ever (Virgil's)

Awww!

"I give up!"

Revamping my blog!

Haha, sorry I haven't been very active, I had to study hard for finals! I did very well on them, so I'm happy, by the way. So well, in fact, my mother bought me a new dress to celebrate~! I got it off EGL Comm Sales, and I'll show pictures when it comes.
Anyways, I will be revamping my blog! So stay tuned for changes! Also keep an eye out for some crafting and tutorial posts!

Went to I-CON~

Yaaay~ I went to I-CON 2012 on Saturday, and it was really fun C: Although it was mainly a "Shopping Convention" for me, since there weren't many anime panels, AND the Lolita Fashion show didn't run this year (´;ω;`) it was pretty sad, since I really wanted to go, but oh well, at least I got to buy some cool stuff! (Will add pictures of that stuff later m( _ _ )m I'm having some camera difficulties...)
I went with a friend, since he drove me, and just pretty much stuck with him and his little sis, since my mom didn't want me to be by myself, her (paraphrased ^^;) words were: "People go to these 'conventions' to look for little girls by themselves. Don't be a little girl by herself." orz my mommy is so silly. I know one or two creepers may do this, but no one is going to snatch me up when there are literally hundreds of people around... Plus, ( ̄□ ̄;)I may be a bit common sense lacking, but not so much were I would jump into the van of the closest pedobear.
Well (^▽^) without further ado, here are some pictures!


Me and my friend Sean.
My outfit rundown:
Dress, Bag and Head-dress: Fan + Friend
Shoes: An*Tai*Na
Wrist Cuffs: BABY, the Stars Shine Bright
Wig: (._.) I don't remember...

His outfit? (^v^)no idea.


Oh wowowowowowoww! <3 I love all of their cosplays, but my personal favorite it the girl cosplaying 'Daughter of Evil' Rin~! The dress was like, 10x more gorgeous in person!


I saw another Lolita there! (ノ^o^)ノ 
I love the dress Melty Chocolate, she pulled it off nicely


This guy was pretty cool x33




Only two things I can say from these 'Caramell Dancing' pictures my friend's dad took OTL
1) My legs look fat when doing this dance.
and
2) I need to start actually doing my makeup OTL 

... That reminds me, I need to buy a pair of circle lenses in my natural eye colour... (well one of them at least.) But that's for another time!

I might have one or two pictures to add when I update this post with pictures of my 'swag' (hehe, I love that word.) tomorrow. Swag pictures might be just webcam though OTL The only reason I even have the pictures above is that's all the one's my friend's dad took...


Edit: Here's some of the pictures of my stuff! Sorry they're late D: I was very sick and my headache restricted me from getting onto the computer...
Stickers :D

Pose-able figurines of Mami and Ami from The Idolm@ster.

I wish there were some lolita shops, but alas (;へ:)none.

HMHM, Classical Puppets, An*Tai*Na, and Taobaonow review!

Hello everyone! I just got back from Florida, so I picked up my package and decided to do a little review! I bought a petticoat from Classical Puppets, and a bunch from the Red Riding Hood series that HMHM released!

As for Taobaonow, here's my rating:
Communication: ♥♥♥♥♥/♥♥♥♥♥ (5/5)
                                Very good communication! They responded within a day every time!

Shipping: ♥♥♥♥/♥♥♥♥♥ (4/5)
I think this might be a bit biased, since last time I ordered a package via EMS I got it in 2 days, so I was hoping it would come in 2 or 3 so I could wear my dress in Florida, but it came in 5. (But I also took off 1 heart because it took quite a while to receive the invoice for shipping via paypal.)

Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥/♥♥♥♥♥ (5/5)
Everything was good! I will definitely order from Taobaonow again! 

           

                                                    




 <-Box! Perfect, no holes, etc.


Everything was wrapped up inside a trash bag inside the box. ------>







My hat! And... What's that with it....?


They sent me a free ring! Probably because I ordered the necklace, HMHM said it was all good, then suddenly didn't have my necklace! But the ring is very pretty! (and adjustable~)

A better picture of the hat. It doesn't look fuzzy on the taobao page, but it's a nice furry-fuzzy beret.

I ordered This petti from classical puppets.

Fwaaah! Poof monster! (see pictures at bottom for how it looks on!)

And tea parties from An*tai*na

Perfect fit! 
But! I later bent down to plug in my laptop, and the back strap thing, holding on the part that wraps around your ankle, broke off! But my dad has some industrial glue I'm gonna use to fix it, and then I'm going to put in a few more stitches for extra hold.



Now onto the coat!



Veeeeeeery nice! it's fully lined, and the faux fur is very soft, not itchy at all!

It also came with this broach. Each piece has a pin at the back so you can arrange it any way you want!



And then, oh-my-goodness, the dress~!


                                                       Packaged very nicely~

                                                                   ♥.♥




The print is amazing! And I forgot to photograph that they had the seems match up! So the print looks flawless! My BABY skirt doesn't even do that! I would compare the feel of the fabric to this skirt I own. I had it custom sized and it fits perfectly.



And then.... What's this?!
When I reached the bottom of the bag the items were shipped in, I found this!


    I don't know if they usually send free bags, but I was very excited! It's uber cute, and matches the items I bought~!
It feels very sturdy! The bow is already fraying a bit, but I don't mind! It was free!
The printing is also very clear C:




My mother then offered to do a little mini-photoshoot to show the complete look!
(all pictures taken with my new Classical Puppets petti!)

Front, side and back.








 I was actually fixing my hair in this pic > . < But my mom took the picture, and it shows off my ring and hat nicely.

And then derp! Behold my derpiest face! 


-End.
