Long time no see, darling!

I decided to start updating my blog as a contribution to the fashion I like, so may be more people might become more interested in this pretty style ✨

Starting my first publication, I decided to dedicate it to the marvelous event I had a chance to visit - Hellocon’s Eternal Twilight festival. Being held in Helsinki and having Mana-sama himself as a special guest, this event was a must to visit!

When planning my outfit couple of months before the event itself, I was considering to dress in a simple classic coord (as due to high work load I couldn’t afford traveling longer than just one weekend). But thankfully one of my favorite brands Lady Sloth releases theirs gorgeous flocks Bat Rhapsody series and once I got the JSK in my hands, I knew I will build the entire look based on the Bats theme!

As per my current closet strategy (I will

Post it in a couple of weeks), I didn’t want to buy pieces that i wouldn’t be able to wear more than once, hence I made a decision to craft all accessories instead of buying headpieces or bag or shoes to match the batgirl vibe.

In the end, outfit rundown is:

JSK: Lady sloth 

Overdress: Diamond Honey

Shoes: Emily Temple Cute

Hat, gloves, bag decoration, socks: handmade

Bag: Taobao

The venue itself was really really pretty. For me it was the very first time to travel abroad for a fashion event like that and I was so amaZed by spectacular coordinates everyone served! The kiosks with all the different brands were very extensive and I do regret not buying a super cute Yukine Box dress from a lovely seller!

Despite me being fascinated by the Moi-meme-Moitie fashion show, I have to admit I liked the indie brand show slightly better! Such a wide variety of designs, great music and beautifully styled models made this experience really memorable.

What also made the event special to me, I was able to meet all the amazingly stylish ladies I am a long time follower of. Seeing your fashion icons in reality is a really special feeling, I have to admit!

I also really liked Helsinki as no one really paid attention to me being all dressed up, so I felt very comfortable traveling using public transport. 

Due to time constraints, I wasn’t able to attend the tea party which I regret a lot, so absolutely, one of my next year resolutions would be to attend a tea party on an abroad event!

2018 EGL lolita wardrobe post

So it is this time of the year again! - would I have said if it wasn't the first time in 7 years that I sit down to create a lolita wardrobe post.
I first got into fashion back in 2009, studying in school, and this beautiful style and community inspired me to start sewing. Gradually building my mostly handmade wardrobe with occasional sparkles of BtSSB, I suddenly lost an interest in fashion as I have started working in a big IT company combining it with university education and some sports as well. Selling and gifting all of my pieces, I left with one and only BtSSB JSK - deeply inside beleiving perhaps that I will one day feel the sparkle of emotions to puffy skirts and beautiful communities again - seems like I wasn't wrong haha!
April 2017 I have received a job offer away from my motherland, and moved to Warsaw - and all of a sudden I realized that I want to dress myself up again in gathered garmets and enjoy myself more in this fashion! And my journey started back again :)

You might notice that most of the pieces are 2010-2012 releases, and it can be easily explained by the fact that now I feel more confident in getting my dream pieces that were on my mind back in the days :)

And without any further ado, let's take a look in my closet!

Beware, it's Lucky Pack season!

End of December is not only a time for running errands and buying last minute presents, it is also a time for booking your Lucky Packs!
 Lucky packs, or Fukubukuro, is a great way to get rid of the stock widely used in Japan, First couple of days of January, many brands are packing the items that have not been sold out in a great value for money blind packs and are sellign them away.

Traditionally, Lolita brands are also participating in those amazing deals, and this year I also decided to take the plunge. But now, let's take a look at the offers that our beloved companies are prparing for us:

Angelic Pretty

Fairy Rose Princess by Angelic Pretty

This winter Angelic Pretty had cheered us with a variety of great prints, and one of them really called my name: the gorgeus Fairy Rose Princess. The series come in three cuts (JSK, Special Set JSK, Princess OP) as well as a veil headdress and the stockings.

Princess OP

Personally I would say that even though I am a JSK gal, this OP really caught my eye! The way the cut is complimenting the print and feeling of the dress is spectacular, and I would definitely see myself wearing the gown (I would even go this far to call the OP this way) to a super fancy tea party!

Winter International Lolita day 2017

After years of skipping Lolita fashion and sort of avoiding it even, this year I decided to add few bits and pieces to my wardrobe. This resulted in a bit overboard shopping adventure throught the entire 2017, and of course in a desire to wear the fashion more often.

This winter ILD however I was out of town, so I chose a very simple not so lolita outfit with some dream print of mine ^^'

Blouse: Axes Femme

Skirt: Angelic Pretty

Shoes: Offbrand

Bow: taken from BtSSB dress >.<

These days are pretty busy at work, hence I am waiting for the Christmas Tea Party for an occasion to wear a fancier outfit.

The skirt though was a very pleasant surprise on how cute it looks in the reality! Already having the JSK from the same series in black,  I am event considering to possibly get another skirt in red colorway haha! 

Khronos Utopia by Angelic Pretty

During few last months I was asking myself: which direction lolita fashion is going to? Not being an expert in it at all, I however was noticing some worrying signs such as Angelic Pretty releases not being sold out in seconds, lack of blood baths during the first days of new items dropping to the market... However our beloved AP proved us wrong and introduced the new series called Khronos Utopia.

The series contains of the OP, the JSK, the canotier and the OTK socks.

First comes the OP

One piece presented in the Khronos Utopia series resembles a lot of the famous Misty Sky OP: higher waist, longer skirt, gentle poof of the sleeves, however it does have the differences also.
