Saloppette Faturday and Funday in October



It was a busy weekend in October, so to encourage myself, I wore a Quick-like-a-Bunny outfit. On Faturday, someone made and shared Star Wars ginger cookies at the meeting!



Weekend in San Francisco

♪♫ San Francisco, open your Golden Gates, please let no Stranger Wait outside your door. ♪♫

Last month, I spent a weekend touring San Francisco with friends. Although I was born and raised there, I had new fun.

Tomatoes I packed for the ride.


Hairstyle for the day.

Departing New York, Day 8.

The last day in New York was pretty enjoyable too. I wore my new Uniqlo clothes, because it's important to be comfortable, yet cute while traveling.


Hat, Jeans: Unqlo
Dress: Orla Kiely x Uniqlo
Jacket: Abercrombie & Fitch (Gift of Amy)

Blast from the Past, Ganguro Gyaru


This is from 2007! After I started experimenting with fashion, but before I documented it well. I am Ganguro this day. I wore the brightest clothes I had, and my friends didn't recognize me. It was fun to walk around that day, most people probably just thought I was tan.

The flower bead bracelet, shirt, earrings, most of the stuff I was wearing was handmade. Ganguro is fun.

New York, Day 7. Tea-time!

This Monday was my last full day in New York. So, of course, I had to live it to the fullest! Fuel up with Amy's sandwich and Xin's coffee, yum.

Monte Cristo & Coffee

I wanted to wear something cute but comfortable.


Hat, tights, socks: Uniqlo
Dress: Liz Lisa
Parfait charm: Minty Mix

Black Friday Outfit, Lucky Pack Dress!

You could say I did my Black Friday shopping early, since I spent my time and money in line for Angelic Pretty's lucky packs last week. But I'm happy with the results!


I spent the day writing blogs, eating leftovers, and dressing up!

Lo lo lo lo lo, Cupcake Gingham Style~>

Angelic Pretty San Francisco 2nd Anniversary Tea Party with Maki & Asuka~>

Since I missed the First Anniversary party, I was most excited to attend the Second Anniversary Tea Party of San Francisco's Angelic Pretty! Mari and I traveled together, so we snapped some shots during bus stops.




The fluffy ears are my favorite!

Turkey Wrangling, Thanksgiving Preparation!

Last Monday, I volunteered at my local coop, to distribute pre-ordered Turkeys! It's a lot of fun grabbing the turkeys from the big fridge room. I usually dress up in costume too, but this year was a bit lower key since due to the busy Angelic Pretty 2nd Anniversary weekend, I didn't have much time to plan.

Gobble, gobble, tattoo!


Here I am in the fridge.




Bought it.


I'm deflating Jason the Turkey.






Fun with beer!





As a bonus, I will include my Thanksgiving outfit, since it's similar.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Angelic Pretty 2nd Anniversary Lucky Pack sale

It'd been a while since I'd lined up for lucky packs, and this time the content t'was a mystery. At the same time, they were releasing Misty Sky, too. I wanted Lucky Packs and a Tea Party Ticket.

Since it was predicted to rain all weekend, I chose my darkest Angelic Pretty dress, and slapped on my rain boots.

In line, I kept my hair braided, but later in the day, I let it down.


To mimic the dresses check pattern, I used fishnets over the strawberry socks.


I arrived around 6:10am, and there were already 5 ladies in front of me, all from out-of-town. It was raining before the sun came up, so once the sun came out we snapped some photos.



Even with Coats on, everyone's so cute.

Kari C.


Amber C.

Angela C.

She was #1 in line, all the way from Michigan!


We got really excited once they put out the signs. Trying to peek at the merchandise. Earlier we'd seen Asuka and Maki walking in and shop girls too.


Pink Misty Sky! The Navy is Gorgeous.

I want to Celebrate with you!

Asuka and Maki stepped out for some Photo Ops! Their outfits were So Perfect, and lovely for the Fall Lolita.




I was in a rush so I was in and out of the store in 15 minutes! I got what I wanted.

Yes, I was tired.

The Haul.

Bunny Cutsew part of Toy March, I love it.

Special Anniversary gift for spending 150+



Inside the Lucky Pack!



Cute  Tape

Luckily, I have nothing like this. I can't wait to wear it.




I thought the Sax ring with the Gingham dress was very cutely coordinated. I love Drips and wear this ring all the time. I dream of doing Country style or Dorothy inspired lolita outfits!
