the future is the way of that
Just a quick report of the afternoon tea I treated myself to for my birthday (uhh 1 week afterwards because that was the only time I thought I could get off) on April 1st. I researched all of the afternoon/high tea places in the area and I finally decided on this location I have never …
Yesterday was the first Saturday of December which is winter International Lolita Day! I didn’t get to a coord done that day because I was busy running errands on Saturday afternoon and then I spent the whole evening at my friend’s house watching playthrough of Disco Elysium and that’s a lengthy process. So I made …
In a previous post, I listed two sets of Japanese fashion items on Etsy/Ko-fi for anyone interested, just so my shop can truly be called an atelier. The beige/white lolita skirt and bonnet set was actually sewn quite a few years ago and meant for a variety of sizes, but I never pulled off that …
For Labor Day weekend the last weekend of August, I made the drive to San Antonio for San Japan and the Okashi-con events there, including their Japanese fashion mixer. This year’s theme was Sweet Roulette with a casino cards theme, so I wore an Alice in Wonderland coord that I bought from Metamorphose because I …

Welcome to another International Lolita Day, first Saturday in December! I had the vague plan to dress in J-fashion today but it was cold and rainy and my mom came over so I was feeling lazy. Then I went on Insta and was reminded of ILD, so I decided to make a coord for the …
Here is my coord from the Okashicon at San Japan Japanese fashion mixer last weekend. The theme was “Spooky Sweetness,” and as Metamorphose Temps de Fille was the Japanese guest of honor, I borrowed a jumperskirt from my bestie that was spookier than any Meta dress I already owned. I crafted/decorated the hat and earrings …
Happy belated International Lolita Day! I always forget about the summer lolita days unless someone reminds me ahead of time lol. I did technically wear a lolita cutsew yesterday, so that counts as participation right? Today I wanted to show off a very quick coord of my Atelier Pierrot plus size jumperskirt in purple x …

But as the menswear suits guy on Twitter (@dieworkwear) has explained, finding a style that represents you requires thought and experience and experimentation and eventually, at least some money/time invested.
