In which she basks in the fall cool…

An outfit I’d love to wear this week:
Fall Coord!
JSK, Boots, Beret: Innocent World
Everything Else: Offbrand

Okay now it feels like fall around here. The leaves are falling quite a lot, my boyfriend Sam has some huuuuge maple leaves outside his house that are easily bigger than my hand! This coordinate pays homage to what I think of when I think of fall. Brown, nature prints, fur, boots and hats. Lovely, lovely, lovely!

Oh and THANK YOU FOR 5,000 HITS! Expect a freebie later today or tomorrow!

Are you having a bad Lolita day? We all have them. Someone says something rude or you get one too many awkward glances or someone makes a bad comment on something you posted and your whole day just kind of crumbles. But not to fear! Here’s a little love to cheer you up!
You are beautiful! Spread the love with others at Operation Beautiful. Making other feel lovely makes you feel lovely too!
You are talented! Do some crafting, being productive while making beautiful things is one of my sure-fire way to make my day 100% better. Coloring is extremely therapeutic and makes for great stuff to hang on walls. Knitting and crocheting are excellent for the cold weather slowly descending upon us! Baking is just plain delicious, and excellent for sharing with others! Nothing brightens someone’s day like a home-made cupcake.
You are not alone! Plan a meetup and share all your best stories about stupid things people have said to you about your lolita clothes. Make lolita valentines to each other and munch on super-cheap post-Halloween candy!

I hope that this has brightened your day! It’s tough sometimes to be different, but keep your head high!

Also, I’ll have my next batch of Lolita 365 photos up in the next couple of days! Sorry it’s taken so long, it’s been a hectic couple of days!

Happy Halloween everyone! An outfit (actually 2) that I’d love to wear today:
Lolita Halloween: Devil and Angel
Jsks: Angelic Pretty
Bolero: Baby
Boots: Meta
Shoes: 69th Department

Pretty standard Halloween idea, but I think it’s pretty cute with a lolita twist!

I just have a couple more character pictures to share from Disney! These first ones are from Epcot still:

Daisy! The cast member that took our picture was really curious about my shoes!

Stitch is such a ladies man.

So cute!

We also ran into Marie in France! Cuuuute.

And this last one is from Hollywood Studios:

Up! We waited in line a while to get a picture with these guys, but we just couldn’t resist.

That’s the last of our Disney fun! We came back super tired and had to go to classes the next day, which was terrible. But it was totally worth it!

Kori and I managed to get reservations at Akershus Banquet Hall in Epcot, and princesses come around to get pictures and give autographs, it’s really awesome. So I thought I’d share some pictures of Kori and I with the princesses!
Alice came around to us first! She was excited about my Alice in Wondersweets Land jsk.


Aurora came around next, and she is my favorite princess, so I was super excited!


My picture with Snow White didn’t turn out, it was a little dark in there, but Kori’s turned out cute!

Ariel’s dress was our favorite, the brocade was just beautiful!

We had a great time, the food was great, and it was awesome to have the picture opportunity!

An outfit I’d love to wear this Halloween:
Lolita Halloween: Les Bal des Victimes
JSK: Angelic Pretty
Shrug: Baby
Everything Else: Offbrand
I’ve read a couple of posts recently about le bal des victimes, or The Victims Ball which happened shortly after the French revolution, they were kind of gruesome parties themed around beheading, and ladies wore red ribbons around their necks and on other accents. I think it’s pretty cool, so I went with that vibe for this week’s outfit!

In which she finally posts some pictures!

An outfit I’d love to wear this Halloween:
Rapunzel
Jsk & Bow: Innocent World
Everything Else: Offbrand
I’ve always liked Rapunzel, she’s probably a good chunk of the reason I liked to keep my hair so long as a child. Wearing that wig would be terrible though! So heavy!


In other news, I find this: http://www.newsobserver.com/home/story/142078.html very exciting! I love H&M, so it’ll be nice to have one closer to home than a state or two away! Yay! Also, I promise there will be some Disney pictures once I find my camera cable/ buy a new one. We got some pretty excellent pictures with characters despite the heaaaaat.

I just realized I should probably make a post before I leave! This very afternoon, my friend Kori and I are headed to Florida for a fall break full of loli-goodness. I’m not sure if I’ll really update that much, considering, but expect tooons of pictures afterward!
