100 Lolita Questionaire: 61 - 70


61. "Man, what a rip-off!!" Have you ever thought that about a store?
Yes, I thought this about my first Angelic Pretty bag! I bought it brand new from the store with a shopping service (usually I only buy 2nd hand clothes because it's simply cheaper xD). But this bag has horrible quality, the fake leather rubbes of very quickly and it had many loose threads.
I also think many brand shoes are a rip-off when you see the quality X_x But I understand if you sell dresses for 250€ you can't sell shoes for 20 bucks xD

62. Do you shop online? If so, put the good & bad points here to advise others.
Yes, I don't think it is possible for a Lolita NOT to shop online, except you are living in Japan. Maybe also in Paris and San Francisco, but there you can only buy from 2 brands.
The good points are of course that you have a bigger selection and can find cheap items. But I would prefer to have a physical Lolita shop, because then you can try on the clothes and you see how they look in reality! I had to sell many items because they didn't fit me or looked not like I expected :(

63. Is there a secret person/shop that you have commissioned a dress just for you from?
 No, and I don't think I will ever do it, because when it comes to clothes I'm not very creative ^^' Also, the brands already released many dresses which turned into my dream dresses (look here if you want to see my huge wishlist... yes it's really huge and not even complete xD) so I can't imagine there will ever be the need for me to create my own dress xD

64. "I can never have that/see that happening!! But I will always want it!!" Is there a brand you think this of?
I think many people will write this: To wear some dresses from Victorian Maiden! The problem is that the dresses are super small, and expensive. Even if you buy them 2nd hand you will not find them very cheap.

Here some dresses I like (yes they look totally different from what I'm usually wearing xD)



65. What do you do with the clothes you don't want anymore?
I sell them ^^ But to be honest I wouldn't sell old and worn-out clothes, like socks with many stains or destroyed shoes (like I see sometimes ~_~). Just because it's burando doesn't mean you can't throw it away!

66. What is your most recent purchase? (Even non-lolita.)
Oh gosh I post this stuff too often anyway and now a question in my meme? xD Ok I will tell you, actually it was even a bit for Lolita, I bought it yesterday:

All 4 items together cost only 6€! Because it was Sale at Claire's ^_^ You can see a hair set (I bought it to create a Hime-hairstyle), stickers & buttons from the Hello Kitty Paris collection, dusty pink lace tights and black socks with golden glitter stars.

67. Is there an item you love that you can't buy/seem to find?
Yes, actually there are many xD But to name a dress which I desperately want but which is REALLY rare: The Btssb Ribbon Ribbon Hello Kitty JSK <3


 Other rare items I'm searching for:

 Btssb ~ I scream for the magic ice cream (but in pink)

 AP ~ Jewellery Box

 AP ~ Dream Magic

Btssb ~ Hawase Doll OP (from the Kamikaze Girls movie)

Btssb ~ Usakumya PARIS edition (but in white)

68. What do you think of people who only wear lolita to conventions?
I also don't wear Lolita everyday, because my style is defnitly not made for everyday. I wear it only for meet-ups, conventions or when I met with my friends who are also dressed in Lolita. It's your own decision how often you wear it, but I think someone who truly loves Lolita fashion want to wear it more often, and since conventions are only a few times a year, you just can't wear it ONLY to conventions xD At least I couldn't ^_^

69. What do you think of lolitas without makeup?
Lolita-clothes in general look like a piece of art, even a simple Classic Lolita dress looks very elegant, doll-like and beautiful in some way. So in most cases it just don't look good if you wear clothes full of art, but then stop at your face. But I have to say there are some people who can wear Lolita without makeup, I know at least two :)
The only No-Go is to wear wigs without makeup! Even if your wig is in your natural hair color, your face will "disappear" because the wig fibers have a more intensive color then your real hair.


70. Another lolita is wearing the same coordinate/clothes as you!! What do you do?
I would think "TWWIIIIINNNNSSSS" and I would ask for a picture xD

In the Tea Room

On Wednesday I visited a Tea Room in Bonn, called "First Flush". I visited it with my Lolita Gang xDD Yeah I'm very happy that we have our small group, and even if the age difference is 11(?) years between the youngest and oldest person, and even if we have different lifestyles, we still are connected through the fashion and get along very well! <3

In Germany you don't often find Tea Rooms, to be honest this one is also no real Tea Room like the ones you find in the UK or USA, but it comes pretty close ^^ It has a wide selection of teas, and if you are lucky you get it in a pretty tea pot with a small tea cup. The special thing is, that each pot and cup in the whole Tea Room is an unique piece.

And this Tea Room definitly has the best cake I ever ate in my life!

Lots of tea and cake~

 I had "white chocolate & coconut" tea and lemon tarte

Now our outfits:

 Nyanko with her new Baroque dress

 Evangeline ~ she always has so damn pretty outfits but never wants to take pictures -.-

Meeee xD

 Claire

Claire visited me at New Years Eve, and she brought me the best chocolate ever:



 Princess Chocolaaaaaate :DDD Sadly it doesn't make you fit into princess dresses xD

In Germany, university and school is starting again, so have a nice start into the week my princesses~ <3

100 Lolita Questionaire: 51 - 60


51. Did you ever changed your clothes in a train station?
No, to be honest I would find it a bit disgusting when I think about some station toilettes xD But like I said in posts before, sometimes I do my styling in the train... when I drove to Paris this summer, the train had receptacles (Steckdosen), so I decided to curl my hair with my curling iron xD (hey I was bored xD)

52. What do you think of "twin" and "triplet" lolitas?
I loooove it and I'm happy that I can do it with my Little Bears Cafe dress, and also my pony skirt!

53. Do you practice any sport or related activity?
Yes, I started with Ballett some months ago <3

54. Do you feel nervous when you wear Lolita at public?
When I started with Lolita, yes! But now the nervousness turned into annoyance, srsly it's so annoying to get asked for pictures every 5 minutes, so I started to reject this questions. But I still feel more comfortable when I'm in a group and for me, Lolita is something I want to wear together with my friends and not just alone ^_^

55. How much do you spent in Lolita clothes per month?
Hmm when I count everything together what I bought this year, then ~50€ per month. But I don't buy every month something, and sometimes it's hard to count because I also wear my cute bags, blouses and jewellery in my 'normal' wardrobe. Also, the 50€ doesn't include the money I spend for conventions or for food on meet-ups xD

56. How much time passed since you know Lolita and wear it?
I heard of it 5.5 years ago, know it for 4.5 years and wear it for 2.5 years xD

57. What is your most expensive lolita item?
My rose dress:
This was my first coord with this dress ^^

58. Lolita requires spending so much money. How do you save?
1. I don't save because otherwise I couldn't spend so much, y'know???
2. I have a mini-job ^_^

59. Do you work or did you ever work?
Yes, see above xD

60. What store would you like to have in your town?
A store which would sell Angelic Pretty, also cute casual clothes like Liz Lisa, Ma*rs etc. And a store which would sell a lot of not-overpriced Decoden stuff <3

Rose breakfast // Meowchis

Hello hello my dears~ <3

A few days ago I visited the christmas market, and there was an awesome booth with many Rose products! I already admired it last year so much, because Rose is my favourite flower. I love the look, the color, the taste, the smell... everything ^_^

So this year I decided to buy some items. I bought Rose candy, Rose tea, Rose soap and Rose jam! Here are the items:






The soap already has its place in my bathroom ~ it makes the whole room smelling like Roses :D


To try all the items, I made a little Rose breakfast with my pretty tea porcelain:



 Yes the tea and jam look more orange than pink, but still taste like Roses.

The Rose jam is only made from sugar (honey) with rose blooms. I don't like honey that much so I think I will use it to sweeten my tea in the future :)
Unfortunately I didn't knew before that the candy doesn't contain any Roses, it has only the shape of it :(

 The tea is made from 100% Rose leaves! So tasteful~

And now to add a little bit ~*~ kawaii ~*~ to my post xD A friend gave me a cute little Meowchi as a present :) It's from her favourite shop Tasty Peach Studios. Their stuff is so unbelievable kawaiiiii you have to check it out! xD

*CHUUUU*

Meowchi is inspired by japanese Mochi, that's why she looks like a candy ball ^^

Together with her new friends xD

I got also some pendants with Meowchis, and the Cotton Candy Llama *awwww* :DDD

So, enough cuteness for today! Thank you for reading <3333

Christmas Cafe

Hello my dears~

On the 2nd Advent, my friend Asukatze invited me for a little Lolita Chirstmas party. She baked a christmas cake, some cookies, made green fruits punch, cooked for us in the evening and decorated everything so lovely! She put so much effort in it, so I was pretty disappointed by some people who decided not to come in the very last second!! But we had a nice day anyway :)

Here my christmas outfit, I hope I can make some pictures in the snow with it... but all the snow is already melted and I don't think it will snow this winter again :(



 And the christmas cake ~ of course with pink glitter!


In less than 1 week is christmas ~ are you excited? ♪♫

Recent shopping stuff and outfit

Hello my dears~~~ <3

Today I want to show you some of my new purchases, and an outfit from friday ^-^

On friday we had the first snow in our city!! Last year it didn't snowed the whole winter but this time we had a lot of snow - well not that much in comparision to other parts of the world, but I live in a warm area in Germany so we don't have it often and it melts quickly ^^''
However I was very happy about this, plus on the evening I wanted to go to a concert from Magali Mosnier, a french flutist. I played the flute myself for more then 10 years now and a few years ago my mother bought me a CD from her, that's why I know her xD And she wanted to play my favourite piece for flute on the concert (Fantasie by G. Fauré ♥), of course I had to go!! So I dressed up in a snow coord ^-^



But I have to say I was a bit disappointed, well she played perfect but she played easy pieces, I would have preferred more difficult ones xD But on the other side I found a new piece I want to learn, so still good :)

And now some purchases:

 Finally I found the perfect crown necklace I've ever wanted! I bought it from Gorgeous Barbie, it was self-made by her ^-^ And the shop owner is sooo soo cute!

Then I found a muff (is it the same word in english? I don't know ^^') at the Christmas Market. My friend Evangeline has the same one and as you maybe already know, we're planning the perfect Litte Bears Cafe twin coordination ^_^

 This are two rose waist belts. I found them for very cheap on Ebay (only 3€ each shipped!) I think my friend Yuki posted them a while ago on her blog, that's how I found them ^^ They have very good quality!

Now some cosmetics:

I desperately needed bottom lashes and heavy upper lashes, because I want to try out the 'extended eye' Gyaru make-up, so I bought very cheap one from Ebay. They needed 4 weeks to arrive but only cost around 1,75€ per 10 pieces shipped! I post them because it is always hit or miss with the quality, but I tried all of them and I can recommend them very much! Here you go: Bottom, Upper 1, Upper 2

This Caviar pearls are very popular now! I tried them but to be honest I'm not too satisfied with them. I bought the expensive set from Ciaté, but the problem is that the paint of the pearls is bleeding. When you apply the pearls to your fingers, it looks like in the bottle, but then if you apply top coat, it starts to look messy -.- Also, it holds only for 1-2 days.

This is Liquid Eyeliner from Rival de Loop (Rossmann)! It's clear eyeliner with a lot of glitter, and it looks really pretty on your eye, perfect for a christmas winter look :) And it only costs 2€!

 Yeees it's a Twilight Saga lipstick xD But I bought it because of the color: gold *_* It's from Essence and also pretty cheap, around 2,50€.


At last I want to mention a small blog update, I now added a "Contact Me" page, so you can write me a private message if you want. You find it at the top of the blog or here <3


In my next post I will write about the Christmas Party from today, see you then <3333
