Daily Outfits! ~ October 1st to October 17th!

 Hello my cute soft puppies! :3

Today I am back on my blog with my outfits from the last few weeks! ^w^ I'm going back to work tomorrow so I wanted to clear out my backlog of outfits from my sick leave! ~ I haven't dressed up as much as I would have liked but I still have 5 outfits to share with you today! ^^; I hope you'll enjoy them! ~

~ Outfit from October 1st! ~

I wore that outfit to have a dinner with friends! ^w^

Headbow; Oo Jia

Blouse; Oo Jia

Jumperskirt; Oo Jia

Socks; Secret Shop

Shoes; Bodyline

Bag; Loris

Wristcuffs; Princess Pearl Designs

Accessories; Chocomint, Paradise Rose & Offbrand (Etsy)

I was feeling very elegant on that day, haha! ^^ So I wore my Star Night Theatre dress that I coordinated with red and some touches of yellow and gold! :3 I tried to do a gold and raspberry makeup for the first time and I think it ended to looking more yellow-ish but I felt very pretty anyway! ~ I cannot wait to experiment with gold makeup again! :3

~ Outfit from October 2nd! ~

I wore that outfit for a Tea Party with my friend Catherine! ^w^

Headbow; Momo & Jia

Cutsew; Oo Jia

Jumeprskirt; Soufflesong

Socks; Bodyline

Shoes; An*Tai*Na

Bag; Loris

Accessories; Chocomint, Rose Melody & Claire's

A coordinate with one of my new Soufflesong dresses! ~ I think that wearing cutsews under jumperskirts have become my favourite thing now! XD; I was afraid it would look too casual with that jumperskirt because the neckline is so simple but my friend Catherine wore a casual Lolita look too so it was perfect for the occasion! ^w^ I added some of my new pearl bracelets from Claire's and a statement Chocomint bracelet with a simple tulle brooch to complete the look! :3

~ Outfit from October 3rd! ~

I wore that outfit to hang out with my friend Érika! :3

Headdress; Soufflesong

Blouse; Oo Jia

Jumperskirt; Soufflesong

Socks; Bodyline

Shoes; Bodyline

Bag; Loris

Accessories; Paradise Rose, Claire's & Offbrand

Another coordinate with my new Soufflesong dress! ^w^ This time I wanted to tried to coordinate it with blue since I thought it would match nicely with the mint details on the dress (as I have pretty much no mint in my wardrobe, sadly... ^w^''). I also wore some of my new Claire's pearl bracelets; I was looking for some rose bracelets like this for a while so I was very happy! *v* I think this coordinate really turned out nicely! ^w^

~ Outfit from October 11th! ~

I wore that outfit to hang out with my friend Mason! ^w^

Headbow; Dear Celine

Cutsew; Rose Melody

Jumperskirt; Dear Celine

Socks; Anna House

Shoes; An*Tai*Na

Bag; Loris

Accessories; Sugar Raindrops & Holley Tea Time

Another casual outfit with a cutsew under a jumperskirt! :3 I was thinking about which jumperskirt would be simple enough to suit a cutsew and my Sweet Paris jumperskirt came to my mind! ~ This time I coordinated it very simply with plain socks and few accessories themed around hearts! ^w^ It may be simple but I love that outfit a lot! ~

~ Outfit from October 17th! ~

I wore that outfit to run a couple errands! ~

Headbow; Oo Jia

Blouse; Dear Celine

Skirt; Oo Jia

Socks; Secret Shop

Shoes; An*Tai*Na

Bag; Loris

Accessories; Paradise Rose & Chocomint

That outfit started out as a simple outfit with my plain blue skirt and a pink blouse... But as I added accessories it ended up not being so simple! XD; But 2012 Tomoyo would be proud, I'm sure! ^w^ I wore accessories themed around bunnies and candies on my brooch and socks for that playful look! ~

So that was my latest outfits! ~ As I said earlier I'm going back to work tomorrow but I feel very motivated so expect more outfit posts and some 52 weeks of Lolita posts in the future! ^w^

Until next time my lovely citrus macarons, stay safe and take care! <3

52 Weeks of Lolita ~ What is your favourite brand and why?

 Hello my lovely and warm pumpkin spice lattés! ^^;

As you may have seen during the last few weeks I was in a bit of a blogging slump on my blog... But, my friend Érika showed me a blog; Loliprompts! They have all kinds of prompts for blogging and that's exactly what I needed! :3

So today I decided I would start the 52 Weeks of Lolita! I may skip some weeks if I feel like the subject doesn't apply to me or I may post several in a week if the answer to the prompt is on the shorter side! ^w^

~ What is your favourite brand and why? ~

Firstly, if you have been following me for a while, you may notice that I am far from a brandwhore... XD; The reason for that is obvious; The clothing pieces from all the Lolita brands doesn't fit me, at all... I am a very plus-sized person by Lolita fashion standards and I have been for my whole Lolita journey. So that's why I never really felt attached to Japanese brands because of that...

I still have my favourite designs and aesthetics related to Japanese brands though! I also own a couple of non-clothing items from Japanese brands too so I'm going to list my favourites according to that! ^^

I used to really admire Angelic Pretty when I was starting Lolita more than 10 years ago! ^^ It was the golden era of OTT Sweet and that was all that I was about back in the days! XD; I used to dream of their bright coloured prints full of cute animals, candy, stars and hearts! :3 I was very happy when I could get my grabby hands on my first print replica from Angelic Pretty! Finally, I could be as cute and Over The Top as the beautiful girls I would see on their GLB ads and on their website! I didn't have to "settle for less" anymore and that made me incredibly happy! For once I thought I was the Lolita of my dreams, that I was part of that fairytale and that I wasn't going to be the ugly duckling forever... ^^''

However, nowadays I don't think Angelic Pretty is the brand that I look up to the most anymore... I am not up to date with their recent releases and I haven't been for several years. Now that their Sweet OTT goodness have passed I don't have as much interest in them for the past years.

In the past year or so, I would say that my interest kind of shifted towards Baby The Stars Shine Bright! As a lifestyle Lolita, I think that BTSSB is the brand the represent the Lolita lifestyle the most! Who doesn't want to feel like Momoko, right? ^w^ I love their older designs and the pieces that are very reminiscent of Old-School Lolita. ~ I especially have a very soft spot in my heart for all their Usakumya related merch! ^w^

I mean, who doesn't want cute bunny slippers? XD;

Nowadays I think BTSSB would be the brand that I look the most up to! I really wish I could get my hands on more of their non-clothing items in the future! ^^

I also want to mention a couple of other brands that I like but they wouldn't really be my favourites! ~

I love Innocent World and their take on Sweet-Classic! Even their simpler pieces are made with such nice quality materials from what I have seen. In my personal experience, they are the highest quality of all the brands I've got the chance to see in person! I really wish I could order something from them one day, I've also heard that they have amazing customer service! ^w^

I'm sorry but I'm guilty of loving Metamorphose wacky designs! XD; They also have some pretty nice sweet prints too and they are always creative and colourful! :3

I also need to list Mam Maxicimam as an honorable mention, especially because they got exactly ONE dress that could fit me at my current size! ^^''

The faithful dress! XD;

To be honest, the simpler design doesn't really justify the price for me, (Over 400$ CAD without shipping... ^w^'') however if I had unlimited funds I would probably get it! XD; A girl can dream, right? ^w^''

I also have to finish my honorable mentions with a non-Japanese brand! XD; Especially because that is more accurate to my situation since I actually own 4 dresses from Soufflesong now! ^w^ I would say that if I have to chose one favourite brand clothing wise, it would be them! I love their original prints, their designs and of course the fact that they can offer custom-sized pieces so I can actually wear their clothes! XD;

Do you have a favourite brand or store to shop at for your clothing, Lolita or not? ~ Don't be shy, tell me in the comments below! ^w^

Until next time my pink fluffy blankets, stay safe and take care! <3

Daily Outfits! ~ September 21st to September 30th!

 Hello my sugary pumpkin pies! ^w^

I'm back on my blog today with my outfits from the end of September! :3

As some of you may know I am on sick leave from work due to mental health reasons until mid-October... I thought I wouldn't dress up as much as I would like but I've been feeling very motivated to dress up nicely each day I need to get out of the house so that's great! ^w^

Most of my outfits are on the more casual side since they were mainly worn for errands or appointments but I still wanted to share them since I've been so proud of myself for dressing up, hehe! ~

I've wanted to put an outfit together around the theme of animals with my deer socks! ^w^ I have mostly bunny themed accessories so that's what I chose for my jewelry. ~ I also tried to use a darker shade of blue to blend with my eyeshadow, it doesn't show a lot but I liked to experiment! :3

I've debated if I wanted to disguise myself as a normie for my mental health appointments but I decided not to in the end! ^^ However I still wanted to be casual but still look Lolita! ~ I coordinated my plain lilac skirt with my peachy pink cutsew and simple accessories for a casual but still cute outfit! :3

So that was my outfits from the last few weeks! ~ My posting schedule might be a little wonky for the next weeks during my sick leave but I still want to post as much as I can since it's something I really enjoy! ^w^ Ideally I want to get back to posting twice a week, that would be awesome! *v* I'm gonna try my best! ~

Until next time my wonderfully soft doggos, stay safe and take care! :3
