3 beverages & lolita outfits to match

It's been so long since I post something related to lolita. But, finally Lolita Blog Carnival made a new topic that attract my interest <3

So, I'll list the 3 items to coordinate :D

First, can you guess what is it? xD

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, it's strawberry milkshake <3

I chose this beverage because of the sweet taste <3 Also, usually this drink will be served in an interesting way which usually attract my interest xD (but I'm rarely drink it, because too many cals in this drink TT_TT)

and here's my coordinate pick ~

Dress - Rose Melody

Necklace & bag - Baby the Star Shines Bright

Socks & shoes - Antaina

Second, chammomile tea

In my opinion, lolita never separated with tea. It's like a basic drink that almost every lolita would drink, especially in tea party. But, I chose chammomile because personally, I love cammomile tea. The scent, taste is different than any other tea. It will be hard to explain more about it, because it will be a long post if I explain more about it xP

Basicly, for the 2nd coordinate, the theme would be classic lolita.The coordinate that I want to create which match with this tea can be seen below.

Dress, Hair acc, socks - Mary Magdalene

bag - Innocent World

Shoes - Antaina

The third which is the last,,, hot chocolate

Who doesn't love hot chocolate? xD this beverage was also one of my favorite drink <3 and by looking at the "chocolate" color, it kinda reminds me about gothic lolita. That's why I think it's suitable with gothic lolita look which I've chose below :3

Dress - HMHM

bag - Baby the star Shines bright

Headdress & gloves - Rose Melody

Shoes - Antaina

Actually, doing digital lolita coordinate was my first experience and I thought it's kinda hard >x< But, I'm glad that it turns out good xD 

How do you think of this coordinate with the beverage? 

Hope you like it too :)

Designing my Dream Closet

Hi everyone :)
If you have read my previous post maybe you already know that I joined Lolita Blog Carnival. And this weeks' topic is about designing my dream closet.
*Attention: this post contain many pictures, so it will takes more time for loading.

Since last year, I decided to have more cute clothes like lolita or gyaru stuffs in to my wardrobe. Of course, it will cost more money and I need to

Actually I already love the design of my own wardrobe, but it needs some upgrade. So, here's the plan of my dream wardrobe (after upgrading it!) :D

Later in my explanation, I will use numbers. It will be used for telling what to put in that part of the wardrobe.
So, here's my dream wardrobe with numbers.

So, what will I put in my wardrobe?
> Dresses (#1 lolita dresses & #2 gyaru dresses)
Actually, I have a dream to put my dresses collection which is made by me (mostly will be lolita) in some part of my wardrobe. Also, the others (like gyaru dress) will be separated with my lolita dresses and  will be put at the other side of the wardrobe. While there will be an intersection for both dresses (I thought of making a decoration from ribbons and laces)
Below you'll see some pictures, so you will know what kind of dresses that I love. (Sources are from taobao and google)

> Shoes (#3)
The shoes will be in lower part of the wardrobe. As in the picture, I will put it in #4.
Below are some pictures of the shoes that I love :D (Sources are from magazine and liz lisa)

> Tops, skirts, pants, and sweaters (#4 tops, #5 skirts&pants, #6 sweaters)
For these items, I'll only fold it. I don't usually hang my tops and skirts since I was little, so I think folding these items and put it neatly could also looks nice.
 Below are some picture of my skirt&tops collection that I owned/love. (Source is from taobao)

(That's me :3 I combine a top and a floral skirt )

> Bags (#7)
For this item, of course it will take much space in the wardrobe. But by divide the styles of the bag and put it separately in some part of the wardrobe, the bags will be more neat and organized. Also, it will help us when we're in hurry to choose which bag will we use.
Below are some pitcure of the bags that I love. (Sources are from google and liz lisa)

> Accessories (#8)
It won't be complete if I don't have a space for accessories. It's one of the important thing for gyaru/lolita style. So, I would love to have some accessories in my wardrobe like these pictures. (Sources are from taobao and btsbb)

*Organization tips:
Maybe you'll find it hard to buy or make your dream wardrobe. But don't worry. You can still use your own wardrobe which you have now and with some creativity, you can change it to your dream closet.
Some things that you have to do are:
1. make a list of things that you want to put in your wardrobe/closet (example: dresses, tops, skirts, bags, etc)
2. Decide which part you will put the dress, skirts, and others. Make sure that it will be neat and easy for you to pick the outfit when you want to use it in the other day.
3. Organize the items which you had plan. If you don't like how it looks, you can re-organize it again.
4. Decorate some part of your wardrobe which suits your taste.


So, that's all I can share with all of you. I hope this post can inspire you to make your own dream closet xD
Have a great day everyone! ~

Invent My own Brand

Hi everyone :) Maybe you've noticed a new logo in my blog and are you curious what is it? 

I will tell you a short introduction to that logo. It is Lolita Blog Carnival, where all the members are lolita blogger. Also, the people who joined this group will blogged about a topic which chosen on that week, set a date, and linking to other posts on that topic made by the other members.
Actually, I'm a new member in that group <3 and I'm glad to joined the carnival because I can expand my knowledge about lolita and the people are so kind~

So this week's Lolita Blog Carnival challenge is about "Invent your own brand" and after I knew the topic, I said to myself I should totally joined it! :D
If I have a chance to invent my own brand, there are some things I'd like to do.


1. Set a name for the brand.
A name which came to my mind was "Vintage Milk". Actually, vintage milk was my old deviantart name and I don't know why I still love that name. Somehow, I feel that name was unique, sweet, and elegant. Also, I think the name suits my lolita style. Why? In my thought, vintage will present something which is related to classic lolita, because of the elegant side. While milk has sweet taste, so it can be related to sweet lolita which is cute and sweet <3 xD

2. Choose the items which I'd like to sell.
I think I'll made Dresses, skirts, outfit, and some accessory which can be used together with the dresses/skirt/outfit that I made.
Actually, I've draw some sketches of the items that I'll made when I've finished my national exam . I think when I'm ready, I'll also sell it to other people.
(These pictures below will show some sketches made by me, sorry if the quality photo doesn't good)

3. Basic things that usually appear on my works.
Details. Why it should be details? Basicly, I love to see details on an outfit, it can be accessory or complicated pattern.

4. Prints that will appeared on the outfit.
In my thought, I'll choose 3 themes which I really love <3
The first are crown, princess, and lace. If these items combine together as a print, I think it will produce an elegant classic lolita print.
(the picture below represent the 3 things I've mentioned above.)

(Source: Google and edited by me)

The second are teddy bear, tea, and ribbon. As for these items, I think if it's combined together, it will produce a cute sweet lolita print.
(to illustrate it, I think it can be similar like the print below)

(Source: google)

The third are butterflies, flowers, cage. Like the first print, it will produced an elegant classic lolita print.
(It's hard to search a similar fabric related with this idea, so I'll just show you a real picture)

(Source: google)

Actually I don't know if these ideas will came true or not. But, I do really hope someday I can make lots of lolita dresses/outfit which everyone would love and wear.

Anyway, thanks for reading this post <3

5 movies for Lolita

The second topic is up and it's about "5 movies for Lolita" :D
To be honest, this is a hard topic for me. Because there're so many things I do, so I rarely got the chance to watch ;;w;;

But still, I want to share some movies that relates to lolita style and these are great movies to me.

1. Paradise Kiss
It's a Japanese movie. The main story is talking about an ordinary high school girl which turns out to be a great model and an awesome fashion designer. The plot is very exciting and makes me want to know what will happen next. Other than that, I was deeply in love with the fashion that appears in the movie. It's one of the best movie I've seen and many people likes this movie too.

2. Runway Beat
The great side of this movie is the effort that everyone shows in this movie. After watch this movie, I just realized everyone has their own talent and we should use it wisely. As for the story, it talks about a talented fashion designer in his high school that reveal everyone's abilities and talents. If you love harajuku fashion, you should watch it :)

3. Ai ore! Love me!
Again, it's a japanese movie and mostly the people who act in this movie wear lolita/aristocrat/gothic/other harajuku fashion.  The great side in this movie is the handsome girl and pretty boy, so it shows funny, cool, ciute sides which made a great impression.

4. Alice in wonderland
If you notice, maybe there're only a little connection in this movie related to Lolita. But in my opinion, the clothes that used by many characters in the movie give me so much inspiration for many styles of lolita. Other than that, I just thought the plot is really exciting and super great!

5. Cosplay the series
It's originally from Indonesia. Not only story about cosplay that appear here, but a story of a Lolita girl also appear. This movie tells me about how hard being a lolita, but there're so many things a Lolita should be proud.

So, that's all I can share to all of you. If you have time, maybe you can watch some of them and I'm sure you won't be disappointed. See you on my next post <3 :)

5 pieces that every Lolita wardrobe should have

I forgot to say happy new year to all of you~ Sorry if it's kinda late ._.

and I feel chalenged after reading a post by "F yeah Lolita". You can find the post HERE

So, the first topic that given was about:

5 pieces that every Lolita wardrobe should have, regardless of style

1. Petticoat

Why I choose this? Because almost in every lolita style and clothing need petticoat. Usually, if someone don't wear a petticoat, it doesn't give impression as a lolita.

2. Blouse

a blouse doesn't mean it could only used for 1 lolita outfit. You can use the blouse for many coordination, such as wearing it with a JSK (usually the blouse will be used inside the JSK). Also, you can wear it with various skirts.

3. Bows

Bow is important to in lolita style, because it will show the cute side of lolita.

4. Shoes

Do you know actually shoes makes a big differences? Eventhough people usually don't notice your shoes, but without a matching shoes, the effort you do for making a good coordinate with the outfit and makeup will be ruined. Because actually a shoes will makes you more cute/elegant/cool based on the style you want to show.

5. One piece dress

Based on my experience, I will usually get bored by using the same blouse but coordinate it with various skirt,etc. So, I want to have something different. That's why I need a dress. If possible, choose one dress with pretty details and a good design (For references, you can try to look at baby the stars shine bright)

*note:

all pictures credits to baby the stars shine bright.

See you on my next post :)
