Vlog 1.5!

A while ago, my friend Elaine and I did a lolita vlog for the fun of it. But we never made a second one, so we tried to this past weekend.
We ran out of time though, so here's our lolita vlog 1.5:



SO AMAZING.
Our first vlog can be found on my YouTube account, there.

In other news, I'm going to prom this weekend! I'm so excited!

Sakura Festival

Yesterday I went to Uwajimaya's Sakura Festival. I expected it to be a big deal, like their other festivals, with booths filling the parking lot and magazines on sale (which I ALWAYS seem to miss), and food and games and things to buy.
But this year, it was so tiny! There were two food stands, one selling typical fare (drinks, sakura dogs, etc) and one selling taiyaki, which are these fish-shaped fried pastries that they sold with either red bean or vanilla filling. I had a red bean paste one, it was so good <3

I did get to see some of my friends that I hadn't seen since winter break, and that's always good.

Anyways, here's what I wore:





Everything is offbrand or handmade except for the shoes, whihc are Bodyline. The wig is from Arda Wigs.

So, speaking of the wig, that is one of the wigs I bought at Sakuracon. It's so soft, and felt almost like real hair, plus I got it at a good price, but it tangled so badly. I planned to get it to tease up like Kirsty's wig at Sakuracon, so that's what I did when I got home.


YAAAAAY.

Then I attempted to pin it up.


It looks fine here, but the pins all fell out later.

And last night I got really mad at my hair because it wouldn't stay in my wig cap/under my wig, so I just gave up.

Today I kind of want to try again, but I don't want to get frustrated by such a simple thing for a second time... I also want to put my purikura into this little purikura book that I have, but I don't want to waste them or whatever.

It's just one of those Sundays...

SAKURACON GIKIMAASSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I went to Sakuracon this past weekend! It was CRAZY FUN! I met a bunch of cool lolita bros. It's funny, this was the first con where I wore lolita more than one day. I put on my Athena costume for a few hours; to get our badges and to do a photoshoot, then I changed.

Well anyways, here are some pictures!


ROBOT UNICORN ATTACK HNGGGG


She was so pretty! Enchanted it one of my favorite movies.


I freaked when I saw them, haha XD


Haley and I. Eating, of course.


Did you know Nicole Kidman was there?


George Clooney, too.


The best Heavy is a Lolita Heavy.


Cutie Kirsty and her boyfriend! I saw her in the Dealer's Room and needed a picture, and then later I found out she was the one running a big lolita dinner I had planned to go to. After we ate dinner (which was crazy- 26 lolitas in Cheesecake Factory!) a small group of us went and did Purikura, which I stole scans of from other people.


All of us! Me, Jenny, Kirsty, Rikki, and Holly!


The first one I decorated. It shows.


Another that I decorated


YUMMY HOLLY~


Too much food!
Then later that night we sort of sat around until we got a ride back to the room.


We found Darth Vadar! Whenever I show people this picture, they're always like "oh he's short."
The next day was the fashion show! I was only able to go for two days, so this was the last day of the con.


Modeling! I wore an outfit made by Aridia of Ridi Kitty. It was so cool!


Idk what happened with this picture, but I like it.
Then I went and did more Purikura lol.


Holly, Danny, Ashlee, Allyson, Jenna, and me. THE DREAM TEAM.


SCARY


DAWWW~
So then we had to leave after I did some more Purikura with Rachel and Haley. Haley has them right now; she needs to scan them into her computer before she cuts them. Then I'll post them here :3 Right as we were leaving, though, I saw these guys:


OH MY GODDDDDD~ I love SZS, and the only cosplayers I saw from it were old white guys, so I was so excited when I saw these two!

I loved Sakuracon, and I want to go so badly again next year! I'll probably make another post this weekend about the stuff I bought. I got Rilakkuma stuff, jewelery, and AMAZING wigs!

So I'll just leave you with this:
