Week 36
45. Something that was a gift



 
There’s quite a few and that makes me feel happy and loved
 
AATP checkered bag, BTSSB novelty heart shaped mirror, AATP Francesca frill headdress, Jane marble blouse ivory  by Francesca 

 
Francesca I love you, I didn’t realize how many Lolita gifts she’s given me omg?? I can’t believe it… as someone who shows affection/appreciation to an extent via gift giving this really means a lot to me

 
Black bloomers, unknown headdress, by Nomeda 
no pic of the bloomers, but this headdress was my first full white one and its been worn to and continues to be worn to death <3



 
[technically] BTSSB wizard of oz scallop hem jsk, by my BFF 

 
Well they did send me the exact amount it was selling for, for my birthday, so it was completely chalked up to being a proper birthday gift from them πŸ–€

 
BTSSB Navy Velveteen babydoll jsk
a gift from my parents -w- 
I could’ve paid it for it myself but it was late October when it released and for me that’s already Christmas gift buying season because I like to be done with it before December at all honestly, if I can so help it; so I took my chance and requested it be their gift to me and: success 




Victorian Cards Skirt by Franci and Mimi

A graduation gift from recent <3 its funny how i just sold my secret airmail jsk and then i get another letter themed piece almost immediately lol. My heart was seriously warmed on receiving this gift i wasnt expecting it at all and i am grateful for my friends so so much

Happy new year 2026!
I haven't been around because good news... i finished my thesis! 
the second half of 2025 was a rushed whirlwind filled with work - both of the earning and of the academic type, and even travel, all combined with money woes which wore me out to no ends.
I've yet to present my paper and as soon as that's done i'll be officially "free" - though will i?


There's a lot that i wish to do and work travel and leisure travel are already being booked or already booked as i write. There's many certifications i want to get, and most importantly this is the year i guess i'll have to get my drivers license. 

In a way this will finally be my first year taking a break from studying after so so very long, even if there's much to be done and much being looked forward to.

There's so much i want to share on this blog and i can't wait to continue with its journey, there's countless posts in the drafts, and there's so many posts i want to make, so i hope everyone will look forward to it all ΰ΄¦ΰ΅ΰ΄¦ΰ΄Ώβ— ⩊ β—œ.ᐟ β™‘

 Week 36
12.  Combining other fashions with lolita.



 
If you’ve read any of my other entries you already know the answer to this: I don’t.

I have absolutely 0 interest in wearing lace, frills, and fru-fru outside of Lolita, and honestly it shows as well already in my Lolita style.
I’ve tried more than once incorporating cute/kawaii sort if pieces into a normie outfit but I just cant stand it in the end honestly. My normie clothes are more of a costume to me than Lolita, so I have a very narrow view of what I use in this “setting” for lack of better terms. That doesn’t mean I don’t have fun or don’t care about my normie clothes because lord I do. I have to look good. I like dressing and looking good. I take pride in my clothes [of which I say is different than taking pride in one’s appearance].I have a style, and i like my style, and i'd like to keep my style evolving or trying to reach the ideal for each one as much as i can. It makes me feel ill to be completely dressed lets say in a “let-go” manner and I’ve had breakdowns and such from not being able to dress exactly how I want more than once.

In reality to make my life easier actually; I have 3 wardrobes.
A work, a normie, and a Lolita wardrobe. 

Some pieces from my normie wardrobe have been incorporated from work but never the other way around, and usually when something makes its way from normie to work it stays there- tainted by the putrid fumes which is office-casual workwear. I could honestly say each is a capsule wardrobe in and unto themselves and that therein is what makes my life so much easier when getting dressed for each.

 In a way honestly, I have 3 different wardrobes because there’s 3 different me’s.
The people at work have never- and I don’t want them to see the normie me [much less the Lolita me], normie wear is for school and other sort of settings of that manner, when I’m seen in workwear by this group I hate it because shit I know I look nice but this isnt the place for these clothes. And Lolita is Lolita. It’s a true sort of me, a me that’s doing what they want when they want and having as much fun as they can possibly have whilst doing so!

Are you as demanding with your clothes as i am?

 Week 35
25. Best places to wear Lolita


 
To cute cafes with friends of course!
That’s my top choice for sure, but in reality most anywhere is the best place to wear lolita~ Of course I'm extra careful in "dangerous" places whenever I'm wearing it; I've had friends be attacked/harassed at train stations and such in Lolita. Luckily I’ve never experienced anything trauma-inducing whilst in the fashion sans for the occasional asshole “sneakily” taking my pic – of course I'm unfortunately someone who simply quickly removes myself from any situation if I get uncomfortable or anything. 
Regardless back to the topic: I can’t pick out anything actually specific beyond cute cafes to go have tea in… that is one of my favorite things to do period after all. But Lolita is always best worn when with friends and having fun in the end- its difficult to elaborate beyond that hehe.

 Week 34
32. My best deal




I've mentioned this one multiple times in other situations, here it is again as always though:
Unfortunately the both of them occurred at the beginning of my lolita journey and literally during COVID for one of them...

First the acquisition of my Secret Airmail jsk set for roughly €80-something back in the day



Followed by my insane luck of getting my green tartan babydoll JSK new, FROM BABY, for HALF OFF!


Unfortunately this occurrence left me thinking i'd be able to take advantage of sales on BABY's site for years to come but it seems it was just a freak occurrence likely due to lack of in-store sales at the time...


Honorable mention as well to when i got both my Long Hymn JSK and Rococo Rose print babydoll jsks both for roughly €100~110 each, give or take, last year!
