Dark Lolita outfit for Meeting.

Happy belated Valentine's! This was from last weekend, but I wanted to share. ♥

Since I had a few hours to drive, I opted for a comfortable pink and black lolita coordinate. The dress is fully shirred and stretchy. It lacks the big back bow common to lolita dresses, allowing me to sit back. 

One thing I enjoy about meetings in San Jose is easy access to Philz Coffee. Pricey, at almost 5 dollars a large cup, but the Mint Mojito is definitely a good value, since they use a ton of fresh mint leaves.

Refreshing.

That which I most enjoy at meetings is the people. Ashley & I selfie~> I regret not capturing a full body image of her outfit. It was most adorable.

Random Pirate Lolita outfit.

On June 3rd, 2011 I was a Lolita Pirate. Why? I cannot recall. I was meeting friends for dinner and drinks! Maybe I wanted to wear my Happy Pack Bonnet from Alice & the Pirates. And, that just happened to match my corset, which matched my stockings, and little by little the outfit put itself together. Usually when I make coordinates, I just keep adding until it feels done. Much like decorating a waffle.

I tried to hide the homely background.

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.

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.

Hat: Uniqlo

Blouse: Alice & the Pirates

Dress and socks: Angelic Pretty

Shoes: Rockport

Rainboots: Roma

Coat: Unknown origins from Mom

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.

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.

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!

New York Working it. Day 1

Today was super long. Woke up at 3:30am, after going to bed around Midnight, to catch a plane at 5:30am.
But it's worth it to be in New York!

I didn't have much time to snap photos today though. I promise to do better tomorrow.

Fast snap before boarding first plane. Guarding the luggage!

The top is actually an Alice and the Pirates blouse. The skirt is a gift from a friend who got it from a friend who bought it in Korea. Not pictured is the fishnet stockings and black boots. It's fun to secretly wear lolita items for serious work outings.

On plane, before flight:

Naked face.

 Landed in NY:

Sleepy already.

 In limo:

Creepy, but you can see the skirt pattern.

I like this Korean drama executive lady inspired outfit. Once I alter the skirt or find a good belt, I can reproduce this outfit and update the blog.
