Blue and Brown

With the convention season starting I figured I should start putting together outfits, and even back up outfits in case certain things in the mail don't arrive, like specific tights T_T

But anyways....I decided to base this outfit off of an apron my friend made me a little while ago~! I finally had all the other pieces I needed to make the outfit complete!

What kinds of outfits are you putting together for upcoming conventions?

Forest Nymphs

My most recent photoshoot~!










I had so much fun being a forest nymph~!

Creating a coord.

Hi Everybody~!
I know it's been too long since I've posted...but I'm finally done
with my master's and finally have time~!!!!!!
As the post title can tell you, this entry will be about creating that
perfect coordinate!
(I know I've talked about colors in outfits before in an older post)
Given that it's almost Convention season, and I've yet to pull
my newest lolita outfits together, this is perfect timing.

So you want to try coordinating a lolita outfit for that summer convention,
well do you have the necessary components? Not sure?
Here are some easy things to think about when
putting together an outfit.
1) The key piece
This can be a jsk/op/sk or anything thing else that you want to be the focal
point of your outfit.
An example would be playing off of Angelic Pretty's
triple tart jsk in lavender:
This jsk can easily be paired with simple colors, but
I love to push the envelope:
I love to pick up on colors that can pop, such as the
royal blue blueberries~!
2: Secondary items: blouse, shoes, purse etc.
So you've picked a focal point~jsk
now with the key color blue:
Chiffon royal blue blouse (the one I found is long sleeve from the thrift store)
and royal blue tea party shoes.
Now for the finishing touches:
3. Legs and head
I personally do not like how my legs look, so I will go for short 
socks, red, with white polka dot tights.
As for the hair: a cute curly wig
with a smaller white hat decorated with strawberries, blueberries and
a couple leaves. :) 
I hope this example (which will be worn to a convention soon) gives you
some idea for putting together your next outfit~!
