This is what I wore out today. I've kind of fallen a bit in love with Lolita fashion, so I bought a few pieces so I could put an outfit together. The skirt was actually 2, that I had to sew together, because as you can imagine, plus sizes are even more scarce in subculture fashions than mainstream fashion. I think it worked out okay though, I would definately do it again, it was pretty easy. I really love the carousel print on this skirt, it's so cute! I've also ordered myself some custom fabric from Spoonflower, I designed a lolita inspired border print with Maltese dogs on it. I hope it comes out okay, I can't wait to make a skirt with it!
Oh & because it's Easter, I thought I'd paint a bunny on one of my nails. Polka dots & bunnies = cute! Happy Easter everyone:)Saturday, April 23, 2011

I was about to say you look like an adorable lolita girl.
ReplyDelete:D But you beat me to it! Lovely outfit. xo
I have been looking for over-the-knee socks that don't cut in to create a kind of muffin-top effect but also don't just constantly need to be pulled up.
ReplyDeleteYour socks here don#t look like they're digging in, did you have to yank them up every 5 mins or would you recommend them?
Lovely outfit x
That skirt is perfection and reminds me of everything I used to love about mama dressing me up all pastel-tastic for Easter. Always love your looks.
ReplyDeleteYour such a doll!!!
ReplyDeleteI love those rings :)

Hello there!
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog and I must tell you that I LOVE the way you dress. I'm so jealous, haha.
Actually, I found it a bit disturbing that we look so much alike, I'm only a tiny bit smaller than you (US size 16).
I don't know if you knew about forever 21, but I wanted to let you know about this shop since I love their feminine clothes myself, especially all the florals.

Your lolita fashion is lovely, you pull it off better than so many people I know! I'm obsessed with your blog :)

Hello! I'm a long time lurker, first time commenter. I've always loved your looks. Now I see you doing Lolita, which I've loved for a while but never had the guts to even think about wearing. You're an inspiration, girl!
ReplyDeleteAlso, if the fabric you ordered on spoonflower turns out all right, could you post a link to it? I've been looking for a good border print to make a skirt with.
xx katie.
You are so cute!
ReplyDeleteHugs from Sweden! :D
I'm a sucker for all things pretty, and this is now my favourite blog.
ReplyDeleteI.Love.Your.Style.

I've followed your blog for a while, your outfits are always an inspiration! I actually saw this outfit of yours for the first time in a valentine someone posted for you in the Lolita Valentines comm. I don't know if you've seen it: http://loli-valentines.livejournal.com/93918.html#cutid1
ReplyDeleteYou are some form of genius. i love j fashion but as a uk size 16, cant fit in to most things, buy two and sew them together! Genius! thank you my darling x
ReplyDeleteWow, you are so resourceful! Can't believe I never thought of buying two and sewing them together. So awesome! You are a true inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteI love this set. I actually did the same thing with my bodyline skirt in black. The yellow one is too cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat did you do with the extra ties? I'm still trying to figure out what to do with mine.
That skirt is absolutely cute! So is the rest of your outfit. This is just a very fun and creative look guaranteed to draw smiles. You look absolutely amazing!
