Lolita Logins ~ 2. Totoro Spring Co-Ord


Last Log In


So this year I want to put together at last one proper co-ordinate, I have worn my dresses in outfits before, like at Goth Weekend, however I want to put together a better themed and more intricate co-ord.

Here's my outfit from Goth Weekend, I will be getting stuff for a gothic co-ord with this dress but as it's summer still I'm going to work on my JSK first.

Also I have organised a harajuku walk with some friends for the International Harajuku Day so I have a deadline. The walk is on the 29th, a few days after the actual day but it was the closest I could arrange.

So since my prom, I've purchased a petticoat, though I've been thinking of getting a tutu styled one? But for now, the one I have is fine. I also got some cute lolita socks from CutesyKink so that's another thing off the list.

The main thing I need is a blouse, I dunno how I managed to wear it without a blouse before...
So I the other week I was just chilling on Tumblr and came across this amazing Totoro blouse with a link~


The pink detail would look really cute with my JSK, and Totoro is adorable so I had to have this blouse. However the blouse is long sleeved and it may be warm on the walk so I will postpone this purchase.

On the same shop, I found another Totoro blouse, it's not as matching as the first one, but it's still really pretty and I want to try and make a pink-green-grey co-ord? Something light, and spring looking.


So after purchasing this I went to look for a bag, it's not a 'lolita bag' but it's cute, and fits my co-ord theme and I can use it for a lot of outfits.


I needed something cute that would hopefully fit my camera in it, that's my main worry with lolita bags - most of them seem quite small. 

I really want some grey shoes, but I can't find any flat ones that don't take months to ship... I guess black shoes won't ruin the look... I hope. 

If you know where I can get any grey flat shoes, love platforms, then please comment, I would really really appreciate it. 


Also I thought it'd look nice to have white and green accessories but they'll take awhile to find, but I found a pretty floral headband from Claire's~. There's a Claire's near where we're having the walk so I may pop in to see if they have it on the day.


At the moment I'm staying at my boyfriend's and my sister messaged me saying all my purchases have arrived, including a wig I may or may not include... We'll see. I will be back the day before the walk so not much time to change anything...

Just less than a week to go until I will be trying my attempt at a new co-ord. I hope it looks cute~.

Lolita Logins ~ 1. After 5 Years

Hello and welcome to my new section of my blog, and as you can probably guess it's about the amazing Japanese fashion style named Lolita.


I have known and admired lolita for around 5 years now, I know that is a super long time, but when I first discovered it I really didn't like, and there for didn't care much about, my appearance. I was over weight, which there is nothing wrong with I just didn't like it personally for me, I had loads of spots and my hair just sat there... I did try though, I bought a dress, a Wa Lolita style so it covered a lot but I only wore it about two times and then stuffed it in my wardrobe.

I still loved the style though along with other Harajuku fashion styles, and continued to draw them and blog them on my tumblr.

So a few years later, I was starting to loose weight, looking after myself better, and my hair was becoming pretty awesome. I was going to finish school soon so prom was on the way and of course, I wanted to dress in lolita. I originally wanted a dress form Metamorphose however I understood my parents didn't have much money so I found a site called Milanoo and found a simple, pretty pink JSK that was under £50, one of the cheapest prom dresses I think.

Didn't wear it that great because I ran out of time to buy a petticoat but I still felt confident and kind of cute, I also got compliments; I'm sure I recall one of my teachers saying I looked like a Japanese cartoon character, I loved the compliment.

Now I am in my third year of college, I think I know what I want to do with my life, I want to be a fashion designer, and I want to design lolita dresses into my line. But before I can do so, I need to wear it more.

Now you know the back story, welcome to my lolita logins.
Here I will blog about my journey into lolita fashion.

So far I have two dresses, but nothing I would quite call a co-ordiniate yet.

I also have joined two lolita groups near where I live so hopefully I can make more friends that like the fashion. And I have also joined a UK sales group on Facebook.

So I am trying to complete a co-ord with my JSK, and maybe my Wa dress too, before I purchase a new dress (I also need to save up...).

I have never purchased a well known brand dress but luckily my friend Jenna made a video about it which was super helpful.




Now to save money, search and buy.

June Outfits◝( ・’ω’・ )◟Primark and Cat Tights

This month I went on holiday to the seaside~ It was nice to have a break from the normal routine, it made me appreciate my internet a lot more and phone service. I also wore a lot less makeup on holiday and I didn't look like a zombie so it's boosted my self confidence and now I don't wear makeup as much, but makeup is still awesome.  (❁´ω`❁)

So onto the outfits~

Holiday pics:

First full day there it was kinda cold so I wore the warmest stuff I brought, I didn't expect the English weather to give us a sunny day everyday.

Fews days back and I had to go to college to enrol for my third year, so of course I had to look decent, though I was super tired.

I bleached my roots the previous night and it took some of the blue from my fringe... >3>

Still tried to look cute ^-^ I got complimented so I will take that as a success.

Top: New Breed Girl

Last outfit~

Went shopping the other day for a present and I needed something cute but cooling as it was super warm, I can't deal with this heat wave. I came across this skirt that I got in a sailor seifuku set thingy but kinda forgot about because the top is kinda too small... But the skirt is great so I am going to be wearing a lot more now.

Top: Primark
Skirt: Ebay
Tights: Amazon

This skirt is so cute~















Thank you for reading ❀.(*´◡`*)❀.

Update and April Outfits ~ ✿


Hi, I apologise for not posting much on here, I have been busy with making my first cosplay (which I will right a separate post about that a bit later) and then it's been my exam and deadline season at college so work work work, I still have a few left but I thought I'd have a rest from work and see to my blog. So now that I almost done with this academic year I can give more attention to my blog (still only one follower *cries* what am I doing wrong?)

Look forward to this blog levelling up major this year... I hope... *awkward laugh*

Any way onto my favourite outfits of last month. It's starting to get warmer so I can wear a lot more of my wardrobe now uwu.

Outfit 1~


My Ruby Rose cosplay~!
This dress, beside the belt and petticoat, was all handmade by me, I am so proud of myself. And I said I will post a blog post about it later, but I really want to feature a photoshoot I did recently for my photography exam but I still need to enquire my teacher if it's okay to publish my photos on social media before I get my grade so be patient.

Wig is from Amazon
Lenses from MapleLens (Review)

Also watch my Ruby Rose Makeup Tutorial here~


I wore this to YCC7 and for the photoshoot. One of the reasons I don't like the new heat is this cosplay is now way too warm ;~;.










Outfit 2~


So this outfit is one of the comfiest outfits ever!
Also felt super harajuku... Ahahaa...
Wore this when had a 2 hour car drive to go see Jakku so comfiness was key.

I look a mess but I really liked this outfit.

Top from CutesyKink (better pictures here)
MLP trousers from George
Cardigan from H&M








Outfit 3 ~


So you will see that I recently really like this Iron Man crop tee, as I am quite short it's not that crop and kinda looks like a normal top with high waisted bottoms. Also I feel awkward tucking tops into skirts because it hides the print but this way you can see the whole design and skirt.

All the clothes are from Primark.... Primark is pretty awesome.

Wig is from SpreePicky (Review)









Outfit 4 ~

May recognise this look from my latest video... Or not...
I felt quite body positive this day, I barely ever wear this shorts as high waisted even if they are...

Cap - Pulp
Top - Primark
Hoodie - Primark
Shorts - "Handmidown"
Tights - Amazon










Outfit 5 ~


Even though it was really warm my hair looked terrible so wig day.
Plus for some reason wore a lot of black for a warm day... But I felt cute and kinda pasta goth(?) that day. Unfortunately that day I ripped those tights so this is the last time you'll see them *cries* I has no money for more right now.

Wig - GeishaWigs (Review)
Top - Unknown
Skirt - Primark
Tights - Sandysshop (Review)








Outfit 6 ~

Last outfit of the month, I wore this when I went to watch Cinderella (which was way better than I expected).
It was a pretty sprig day so I thought I would try look pretty, also trying to sort my hair out... Hat to cover roots >.< uguu

Hat - Gift
Dress - New Look
Cardigan - ... Debanhams?
Tights - Amazon










Thank you for reading, please feel free to explore my blog. 

Day, night, week, year, make it a good one.

March Outfits 2015

I haven't had much to blog about in the past month, I'm currently in the middle of two visual art exams and filming a documentary for my college media course so busy busy busy. Oh and I have been making my first hand made cosplay! I will write a post about that soon, it is almost finished.

So for now another month outfit post. It's properly spring now so getting a bit warmer (I live in England it doesn't get that warm yet...).

So here are my outfits for the past month.

First is my outfit I wore to Majjikon. I have admire Japanese lolita for years now and actually purchased this dress 5 years ago? But only wore it a few times, due to lack of confidence, but this year I really want to wear more lolita so I thought a convention would be a good starting point (plus I had no completed cosplay...).



Pictures by me before the con
Wig: GeishaWigs 
Lenses: LensVillage
Dress: PunkRave
Petticoat: Amazon
Tights: Amazon
Leg Warmers: Gift
Shoes: New Look

Next is cosplay related~. This is kind of a 'casual cosplay'. I recently got my wig and lenses (lens review shall be up in the next few weeks) for my Ruby cosplay (I will be cosplaying her to YCC7 and I can not wait) so I wanted to do a costest so to spare time I made it a look for a college one day.


Wig: Amazon
Lenses: MapleLens
T-shirt: Gift
Hoodie: Primark
Skirt: H&M
Tights: Amazon












This picture was taken in the toilets at my college, there was a full length mirror so I couldn't resist. 
Purple seems to be a colour I have admired a lot more this month... I have a love hate relationship with this cardigan but I think it fitted this outfit nicely. 


Wig: Milanoo 
Hat: Ellie Goulding 
Batman Top: My sister's so unsure... 
Skirt: Primark
Leggings: Asda 
Shoes: Dr Martens 












Dunno what kind of Kei this would be under but I need to find out so I can search for this style more; I felt super confident wearing this, even though I am still getting used to dresses (XXL shirt).

 Wig: Amazon
Shirt/Dress: Drop Dead
UnderTop: A Gift
Hoodie: DisneyLand Paris
Tights: Unknown
Leg Warmers: Gift












Kinda Pastel Gothy(?) look now. Again felt kinda cute in this, uwu. 

Wig: Milanoo
Cat Beret: Gift
Undertop: Gift
Parental Advisory Hooded Top: Stole from my sister... 
Skirt: Primark 
Tights: Amazon
Knee High Socks: Primark












Not wearing a wig this time; I'm growing my perviously style out so it is kinda a mess but I really liked the colour I had gotten from toning my faded pink hair so just put a beanie on. Again dunno if what kind of Kei this would be classed as? 



Cat Beanie: Claire's
Lenses: MapleLens
Top: Gift
Hoodie: DisneyLand Paris
Skirt: H&M
