I had those two weeks off from work and I basically spent my time relaxing, sewing and taking photos. I made these two skirts and a matching headbow for one of them. I am planning to make one for the green skirt too. When I saw these two colours of this fabric, I just couldn’t resist buying it. I was planning to use these two at work, but I don’t know, I wore the blue one the other day and it just gets too dirty.
I got some red fabric too and I made cape for a photoshoot, I did a few weeks ago. I don’t have any photos of it to show you yet, because the photos are for the Danish online magazine for Lolitas which isn't released beofre April 11th.
I also bought some light dusty blue chiffon fabric for a JSK, but I haven’t started sewing that one yet.
Tenna invited me to a chocolate festival a few weeks ago and it was quite delicious. She owns Bodyline’s Chocolate Biscuit print in two colourways, so I borrowed her blue skirt, so we could twin this very event appropriate print :D
We met up with Tenna’s friend Keon there, so for once we had someone to take a photo with the both of us in it.
(Shoes: Monki, jewelry: Accessorize, headbow: handmade)
The moment we got inside and took off our coats, we were jumped by two event girls in hot pink poofy dresses, who complimented our outfits and gave us free chocolate! See?! Lolita pays off sometimes :D
We stayed for a while – until all of our free chocolate ‘coins’ (which came with the ticket) were used up and we were getting a bit nauseous from too much of a good thing which included chocolate and macarons :D
Afterwards we went to Baresso to recover :D A wonderful way to spend half a Sunday ^__^
This is my newest purchase: Baby’s Alice’s Portrait JSK in black. I love this print combined with the stripes and I’ve been searching for it for quite some time now. The pink and blue versions are all over the place, but I wanted the black or the red one. Finally I found it on mbok.jp and I really love this place. It gave me the Sleeping Beauty JSK, this one and Meta’s Swan lake skirt is one its way to me.
The photoshoot I mentioned before is themed ‘Fairy tales’ and I had three of my friends and colleagues model for me. I’ll save most of the talk of this shoot for my photoblog, I just want to share this photo Tenna took while I was setting up:
I just want to say that is was a wonderful day, I had the pleasure of looking at three beautiful fairy tale characters and idyllic surroundings all day. More days should be like that ♥
Lastly, I want to share my outfit from last Saturday. I wanted to take some photos to submit to the magazine, but I’m too far from satisfied with the result, so I’ll just share one here and maybe more later at my other blog.
Dress from Retroscope Fashions. This was actually the first ever Lolita dress I bought three years ago and this is the first time I’ve really worn it. For real. It’s mid-calf length and a size too big, so I never liked it. But I gotta say, after this shoot, I’m loving this so much, haha. During this shoot which lasted for about thirty minutes, I experienced cloudy and sunny weather, and snow. It was ridiculous! Hehe..
