It seems that summer has started!

Hello dear readers! It has been a while... A long while, to be precise. I apologize for not making any posts after Christmas but I was really busy with my studies and I wrote so much essays and stuff that it felt like I didn't want to write any extra. And I hardly got to wear lolita since I was so busy all the time!

But finally, it's summer! Vacation time for me! I already have gotten to wear more lolita than what I wore last spring in total. But still, I thought that this first post after pause would be about what happened in last few months (or of what I have pictures, at least...)!

So for a start: My boyfriend and I went to Sea Life! It was around my birthday. I tried to take some pictures of the fish:

Nemo-fish!

For babies!

They were quite mesmerizing.

I wore very casual lolita that day. The picture's light is quite bad, apologies!

Skirt is Bodyline and socks Jane Marple, rest is from ordinary shops like Monki and Cubus.

Next would be HelLoCon.

I organized a gothic/aristocrat fashion show with Mari's help. The name and theme of the show was "Ehdotonta eleganssia" ("Pure elegance") and our models were all super elegant and graceful!

You can see the show in YouTube:

I consider making a separate post of all the outfits containing a huge amount of pictures, but there is so much models that it'll take some time...:D

Here's my outfit:

Pictures by Sanni Siira

Dress: Innocent World

blouse: Alice and the Pirates

bonnet and socks: Chantilly

shoes: Minna Parikka

fan: Belle Modeste

I also modelled in MUST!'s fashion show that Tuulia Lautamaja (Cloudberry Lady)  held. You can see the video here;

I really loved my dress! I wanted to have it so badly, it was really pretty, made with amazing quality and it fitted me quite nicely. <3

Again, pictures by Sanni Siira. Dress and blouse by MUST!

In April Evanee held a meet-up in Helsinki. It was nice to be able to attend in a meet-up after quite a long time. I even got to meet many new lolitas!

Sanni Siira took the picture.

Dress: Alice and the Pirates

bonnet: Innocent World

socks: Jane Marple

shoes: Double Decker.

Lastly, I thought about sharing some pictures we took with Jari B. Miettinen in Hietaniemi's graveyard:

Inka edited the pictures. Ahhh it was so cold!

The outfit is same as in HelLoCon, but shoes are Pleaser's.

Thank you for taking a look at this post and once again, I'm so sorry for the pause! I'll be more active from now on so see you soon. <3

P.s. this doesn't have a thing to do with the theme of my blog, but I have gotten to meet such wonderful new people in my university that I'm going to share out Vappu-celebration picture!

History of art -students! I'm the only-one who forgot The Hat!! 

Have a wonderful summer everyone!

Christmas!

I was going to make a separate post about a pre-Christmas party I attended, but since it' the Christmas Eve I'll just throw everything in together!

So about a week ago Mari invited me to her Chocolate themed Christmas party. Since there were quite many participants we had an indoor picnic and enjoyed dipping fruit, cake and candy in melted chocolate on Mari's blanket covered living room floor. The treats were so delicious!

(All following pictures are taken and/or re-touched by Sanni)

It's Turkish delight!

After drinking lot's of tea we took some pictures together. I love how everyone were just so beautifully dressed (note Mari's x-mas decorated hairdo!)!

Here's my outfit of the day:

Dress, headdress: Alice and the Pirates (I'm wearing Nutcracker print!)

shoes: YOSUKE
wig: Minty Mix
jewellery: Baby, the Stars Shine Bright and random

I bought the wig actually second-hand from Ofelia market, but it was in such a good condition I just couldn't leave it there! Now that I'm in the topic, I'd like to present my other Ofelia findings~

 Rose brooch and a short tulle skirt. :) I also bought some Christmas presents from the market but I didn't realize to take pictures of them before giving them away... Anyway, I really love the brooch! It's quite large... The skirt is just for casual wear.

We celebrated Christmas with my family in our grandparents house. I got plenty of basic household stuff, like toaster, bed sheets, and vases... They'll be in good use. xD

Here's some presents~

My little sister got me fancy lip balms <3

Rose coffee set from my darling <3

Rose shaped mirror from a friend <3

I wish you all a Merry Christmas! <3

Ofelia 9.12.2012

Since it's still the magical day, 12.12.2012, I shall celebrate it with making another post right after the previous one! :D

(Really, I just want to do something else than my gender study learning diary.)

Ofelia, the second-hand street-clothing market, was arranged once again in Gloria. The event was quite lovely, there were so many interesting sellers and from so many different style-categories!

I did some shopping, but I'll make a separate post for them as soon as I get to go to Helsinki and take proper pictures of my new treasures.

Inka was kind and let me use the pictures she took, so they're all taken and re-touched by her. You can see Inka's blog here.

Here's the outfit of the day:

Skirt: Moi-même-Moitié
blouse: Alice and the Pirates
jacket: Black Peace Now
shoes: YOSUKE
bag: Angelic Pretty
ring: Baby, the Stars Shine Bright
rest of the accessories, tights and hair-roses are Chocomint and random.

Some pictures of the event:

Varusteleka is a Finnish army clothes and stuff selling (mostly second-hand) store, they have some incredible old army clothing from all over the world. They had an amazing fashion show! The models were very cool.

We also saw belly-dance performance, it was quite mesmerizing.

Thank you for taking a look at this post. <3

Doll Inspiration II

I made some time ago a post of BJD doll pictures and I decided to make another since a friend of mine has been publishing such wonderful new pictures of her dolls. So this post will be purely inspirational, please enjoy. <3

I choose some of my favourite pictures and here they are!

All pictures, doll's, their make-up and modifications are Sarqq's property. I recommend you to take a look at her DA gallery!

Thank you for taking a look!

This was Halloween

So it has been quite a while since the last post... I've been crazy busy at the university. I should return soon to my Latin translation so this post will be just a small look of how Halloween went! :)

My dress few days before Halloween. I was supposed to visit an art museum with my boyfriend but we decided to instead be lazy and have some milkshake and hot white-chocolate.

Dress, choker, socks: Moi-même-Moitié,
Jacket: Black Peace Now
Shoes: YOSUKE
Hat is bought second-hand and self-customized

It had been snowing a little so it was quite cold!

I celebrated Halloween in Turku with other history of art students. I wanted to make a Pinkie Pie inspired coord, as I think she suits Halloween theme quite well, but unfortunately I don't have a picture that shows the outfit properly... Here's some pics we took before and during the party:

I wish I could have done a little more with my hair and accessorizes but I only have half of my wardrobe in Turku. xD

Dress, socks; Baby, the stars shine bright
Blouse: Dear Celine
Beret: Deary (from Yumetenbo)

My bf's band had a Halloween themed photo-shoot and I helped him with the make-up and hair, I took some pictures after the shoot:

Old-school visual kei!

Here's also KARMIA's new Halloween release:

You can find the actual pictures of the photo-shoot from Facebook. 

Thank you for taking a look. <3
