A princessly lifestyle

The last days I came across the blog "The Princess Portal". Maybe some of you know it because it was a famous blog, which is now taken down but you can still find it at the wayback machine. I am really interested in this blog and started to read the old posts, because I also try to be a better princess and I try to be one everyday. Because of this I also started to write this blog, like you can see in the name (Puppenschloss means doll castle), and when I started I didn't wanted to post only things about my own life, I also wanted to write theme posts about the lifestyle of a princess and puppet. I have some ideas for posts and tried several times to write them down, but it is kinda hard for me to put into words what I want ... I'm not good at writing >_< But I promise I will write some posts, I just can't tell you when ^^'''

Back to the Princess Portal, you can find there the Princess Code, and since it is really inspiring I want to share it with you!

A Princess inspires others to follow their hopes and dreams through pursuing her own.

 ♥

A Princess greets everyone with a welcoming smile, melting the hearts of friends and disarming her enemies.

 ♥

A Princess has dignity, which protects her from the opinions and spite of ignorant people.

 ♥

A Princess always looks beautiful, even when she is asleep.

 ♥

A Princess aims for perfection in every step.

 ♥

A Princess should be given fresh flowers everyday, even if she has to give them to herself.

 ♥

A Princess grows in recognition and stature in proportion to how much she treats others as royalty.

 ♥

A Princess reflect’s her inner beauty in her aesthetic choices.

 ♥

A Princess goes to war against the violence of incivility with the weapons of etiquette and prodigal generosity.

 ♥

A Princess lives each day from the heart, expressing herself freely and treasuring every moment.

 ♥

A Princess has the right to spend her funds on beautiful things she does not need because beauty in itself is priceless.

 ♥

A Princess should follow her heart and believe in her dreams, even if the whole world seems to be against her.

 ♥

A Princess respects her environment and nurtures the beauty of nature.

 ♥

A Princess is never too busy to give a kind word or smile where it is needed.

 ♥

A Princess’s most precious jewel is Hope, which lights her darkest days and shows her the beauty in every soul she meets.

I hope it also inspired you, I could read this beautiful words again and again! I think I will also make a post after I read the Princess Portal, to show you some interesting things I learnd from it ^_^

♥ Do you also try to be a princess? Or do you have another lifestyle you try to follow? Please tell me in the comments ^_^ ♥

want to have the control but not that leader-type, shy, very polite to other people even if they don't deserve it, but I can be also be moody, very lazy when it comes to things that don't make fun, daydreamer, funny (at least I think I'm funny, I don't know what other people think xD)

8 - A goal to accomplish before you die.

To travel around the world
 
9 - How would you describe your style?

I'm actually not in a creative mood and I don't now who I should tag, so I don't write questions, sorry ^^''' But thank you very much for reading, and if you want you can answer the same questions like me ^_^

Little meet-up in Bonn

On saturday I met some of my friends and some new Lolitas in Bonn! We were 6 people and went to "Mirabelle", a new Café which specialty is Hot Chocolate. My friends ordered  hot chocolate with roses and Blue Curacao, and I ordered viscous (dickflüssige) hot chocolate, but it was more like pudding... I don't like pudding -.- But I will definitly visit the Café again to taste their other crazy flavors!

After this we took some pictures but it was sooo cold! I took of my coat but after this I couldn't close it because my hands were so cold! My friend had to close it for me xD

Yep that's hot chocolate *_*

Group shot ♥

Ah my friend looks sooo pretty, doesn't she?

A very new Lolita, it was her first meet-up! She was very nice and lovely ^_^

Bunny ears :D

Why does my dress looks so strange???

I also tried to make matching nails for my dress... I think it looks crappy but at least it doesn't look boring XD

It was supposed to look like Eiffel Towers and a poodle...

Which Pony are you?

I recently got an addiction for My little Pony... I didn't wanted to start to collect them but now I can't stop xD They are sooo cute that I just can't say no!

Here you can test which Pony you are, it takes a few minutes but I like this test because it's so detailed!
~*~ Bronyland - Pony personality test ~*~

I am Rarity ♥

If you just want a quick test which takes only a few seconds, you can try this one:
~*~ Hasbro - My little Pony Test ~*~

I'm Rarity again... but I think in this test EVERY Lolita is Rarity xD But if not please tell me in the comments!

♥♥♥ Which Pony are you? ♥♥♥

♫ Princess-Syndrome ♫

Maybe you already heard it, maybe not, but I love this chinese song called "Princess Syndrome" by Jay Chou!
There is not only a Lolita, but the text is also super funny xD Even if you don't like this kind of music, you have to watch this video because of the text!



And talking about princesses I found a beautiful quote:

♫ “Whatever comes,” she said, “cannot alter one thing. If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it.” ♫
~ Frances Hodgson Burnett

Shopping ♥

Waaah, I didn't realise that I haven't posted for more than 10 days O_O But I realised that most of my posts are Shopping posts xD I wish I could give you more outfit posts but my daily outfits aren't that interesting, and I don't wear Lolita so often... but this is something I really want to change in my life! So I hope you aren't bored by my Shopping posts xD

I want you to present my last purchases:

Angelic Pretty Skirt - it's really short so I have to buy a new petticoat x_x

one of my dream items... but it doesn't fit me ;_____;

I looove ice cream, so it became one of my dream items

casual Pullover, but it's piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiink!

Bunny ears for my OTT-Lolita outfit for our Wonder Egg meet-up in April

Hello Kitty ear muffs - only 1€ at Claire's

cute cat charm, which I already attached to my bag

Bodyline bunny cardigan ♥♥♥

(The last picture is stolen from Google because my bunny cardigan is at my other apartement ^^'''')

Besides that, I'm happy because I ordered my first Fairy Kei items... but I have to wait 2 month for them (because of the shoes -.-)
And I found my dream dress for cheap at an online shop... but I don't have money to buy it xD I have to wait 2 days until my salary comes, and now I'm checking nearly every hour if the dress is still in the webshop... yeah I'm really crazy. AND I'm not even sure if I really want to buy it, because it's plain pink, but I want a dress with OTT-print at the moment... on the other side it is my dream dress and I searched for it so long... hard decisions a Lolita has to make, right?

~*~ dreamdress ~*~

My next post will be not about shopping, I swear xD

My Wardrobe + Meme

In case you don't know it, there is a wardrobe theme at the egl-Community on Livejournal, and everyone is posting their wardrobes, including me ^_^
If you want to see what is in my wardrobe, please follow this link:

http://egl.livejournal.com/18101954.html

And I did a little Lolita meme about my wardrobe, style etc. (stolen from dandelion_cloud @ LJ):

~ GENERAL ~

What colors can be found in your Lolita closet?
mainly pink, white, cream, red, black

What is your favorite color with Lolita?
Pink!!

Which uncommon color would you want to try out sometime?
Gold, I know it's not that uncommon but a whole golden dress is!

~ DESIGN ~

Are you more of a onepiece, jumperskirt or skirt person?
I can't decide because all three styles fit me good. I like skirts because you can create more different outfits than with dresses, but I also like dresses because your outfits look more decorated.

Which neckline is your favorite?
square necks on dresses, round necks on blouses

Print or no print?
Print! Or at least a little bit decoration, otherwise it looks boring ^^'

What does a dress/skirt have to look like for it to be a "I must have it" for you?
~ it is in my favorite colors
~ the print is clearly visible (not like Jewellery Jelly from AP, I can't even identify the print when I see the dress in real life O_O)
~ I can make a whole coordination in my head with it (I have maaany dream coords in my head, also with items in plain colors)

~ STYLE ~

What is your favorite Lolita style(s)?
Sweet!, Country, Hime, Casual

Which style would you wear regularly?
Sweet, if I had the balls (and enough clothes) for it

Which style would you want to try out?
Sweet-Punk (like Nana Kitade in her old days ♥), EGA, Ero-Lolita (in white x pink)

Which style would you never, ever wear or try out...ever?
~ (Kuro-)Gothic... I would try it on at a friends home, but I would feel very uncomfy in a whole black outfit - that might sound strange because I wear black outfits with my normal wardrobe, but I don't like to look like a Goth ^^'
~ Wa/Qui, because I would feel weird to wear clothes of a culture that isn't mine... don't you think that Japanese people would look strange in a Dirndl? ^^'

~BRAND~

Brands: Yes or no and why?
Yes, because they just look super pretty, have good quality and make you feel like a 'real' Lolita.
But also no, because sometimes they have bad quality (like AP bags) and are just not worth their money!

Which brand is your favorite?
Angelic Pretty ♥♥, Baby the stars shine bright ♥, Putumayo, Maxicimam, Motie (their white pieces)

Which is your least favorite brand?
Metamorphose (I don't like any prints of them O_O)

~OTHER~

Things that you like about Lolita?
~ you look and feel like a princess
~ you look like a doll
~ the many details of the clothes
~ my friends and other people I get to know through this fashion

Things that you dislike about Lolita?
~ all the hate in online communitys
~ the high prices
~ that there are no physical stores where I live, so I can't try the clothes on and I have to pay high shipping costs
~ that strangers have to harass you because they can't accept that you look different

Does Lolita affect your everyday life?
Yes and no, because I had the typical Lolita lifestyle before I even knew something about the fashion, but through the fashion I learned to live my lifestyle more intensive like I want it, without paying so much attention to what other people think about me

Do you buy Lolita looking things? Like furniture or hats or something?
Yes, everytime I buy something I try to get the most loliable thing I can find ^_^

Do you buy/read the Gothic Lolita Bible?
I already own one issue and I want to collect all of them, but it's a bit pricey so I have many copies saved on my PC ^^'''

How would you describe your fashion style to others?
cute, colorful, as much candy as possible (even with Country Lolita xD)


Thank you for reading! If you do this meme too, please tell me in the comments, I would love to read it :)
