In which she avoids ice skating…

An Outfit I’d (Kind of) Love to Wear This Week:
Skating Loli
JSK & Bow: Baby
Blouse: Angelic Pretty
Jewelry: Betsey Johnson
Everything Else: Offbrand

I actually really don’t like ice skating. I’m not very good at it, I don’t enjoy being cold if I can help it, and the only thing I typically like about the whole experience is hot chocolate, which I can sit inside and drink very well by myself without falling on my ass, thank you. That being said, it’s damn cute. And I enjoy watching figure skating on TV. So I apparently have mixed feelings on the subject. But that is beside the point! I loooove this jsk. Loooooove. The jewelry I just happened upon, but it matches so well!

Wow, 8,000 hits! Thanks so much to all my lovely readers! Your freebie this time around is this shoe:

Which may just look like a Rocking Horse Shoe, but with the magic of a printer, a hole punch, and some string, it can be hung as a RHS Ornament on your Christmas tree! Observe:

It looks pretty adorable even on my gaudy silver shiny tree! Enjoy! And thanks again!

In which she offers gift suggestions for a loli who loves tea…

For Lolis Who Love Tea
Tea Time Necklace from Sick for Cute $10
Heart-Shaped Mesh Infuser from Stash $3
Monogrammed Mug, Missus from Anthropologie $6
Mad Hatter Tote from Sick for Cute $6 (on sale!)
Stoneware Tea Set from Pier 1 $12

It’s pretty easy to find a nice selection of tea, cute teapots, and the like, so I thought I’d focus on more creative things for lolis who like tea. I hope you enjoy!

Did you guys enjoy your loli day? Because I sure did! Tea was awesome, I met a lot of lovely lolis, and had a great time. It was also really cool to learn that some of the local lolis read my blog, thanks so much for reading girls! Well, I’m back to writing my history paper. Almost done with school!

An outfit I’d love to wear this week:
Winter Cotton Candy

JSK, Socks, Bag, Bow: Angelic Pretty

Something cotton candy and wintery for this week! I love pink and blue together, and I actually really like this Milky-Chan jsk, the scalloped trim on the skirt is such a cute idea!

It’s snowing on my blog! WordPress = awesome.

In which she finishes her November pictures…

December 1, 2009 by makelovely

My pictures for this month! I’ve also moved these over to Photobucket because of the tiny amount of pictures Flickr will let me upload if I don’t pay them money. And as a poor college student, that’s not going to happen. So all of them are up over here: Lolita 365 Photobucket, just click the links in the sidebar to see them all!

Rori Turkey

Happy Thanksgiving! Now that I’m thoroughly stuffed with Turkey and I’ve watched too much House in one sitting, I thought I’d share a little list of things I’m thankful for:
My Family and friends!
My dearest boyfriend, Sam
All of you, my dear readers!
Antibiotics and allergy medication. Oof.
Lolita, of course.
PIE!

An oh so many more things. But right now, mostly the allergy medication. I have weird allergies to antibiotics and dyes in medicine, so without it I’d be sunk! …oh and the pie. Nothing cures my ills better than pie! I hope you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving for those Americans who read, and just a wonderful November day for everyone who isn’t!

In which she discusses strange thoughts…

November 25, 2009 by makelovely

I’ve heard it over and over again, “I don’t know if I can wear lolita because I…” And I’m not really sure where people hear these things from. In my opinion, it doesn’t matter what race, height, weight, age or anything else you are, if you really want to wear the fashion and you really do your research and enjoy doing it, then go for it! I’m a glasses-wearing girl myself, and I always have to pay very close attention to bust sizes, but I’m happy wearing what I wear, and it makes me feel beautiful.

In other news, I have a sinus infection! So I’m going to be a sick little loli for a little while, forgive me if my posts seem a little sporadic and rambly because of it! I’ve got some pretty fun stuff going on in the next couple weeks and then I’m off for Christmas break on the 9th, so expect more posts in the weeks to come!
