Event: BLS New Year’s Swap Meet ~ January 12th, 2020

Hello and happy new year! I took a step back from updating my blog for a few months due to a few big life changes that came my way towards the end of last year. It’s been a little difficult to adapt but I’m doing my best. I’m hoping that updating the blog more regularly …

my 100th post on IG! 🥳✨ here's another photo my 100th post on IG! 🥳✨ here's another photo I took the other day from the AP Paris Tea Party.
.
I'd like to talk about something for a minute yeah? there was a big push over this past summer within the jfashion community, supporting Black lolitas and Black jfashion enthusiasts. we also witnessed a boost of support to POC within our subculture - recognitions long over due.
.
while I still see some embers of that support - we can be doing more. anecdotally I've seen a lot less activity on posts belonging to Black, Indigenous, POC creators, and less supportive resources are being shared. this could very well just be in my own bubble - but it's something I've tried to be more aware of in the online arena.
.
a community is what you make of it. it's ok to not have the bandwidth to comment, like, share, buy, boost, support, and otherwise lift up others every single second of every moment. I certainly don't. and I have good days and bad days like most of us do. 
.
but there is always the choice, and there is always more to be done. I don't know if people realize the impact a comment, share, review, means for content creators and small business owners. 
. 
and honestly? a great place to start with this supportive work is your own local jfashion community. create an inclusive and positive environment for all, so everyone feels welcome to participate!

assorted pieces of advice I would tell myself as a assorted pieces of advice I would tell myself as a new lolita: 
* buy cohesively! curate items that play well together, and don't purchase things singularly to fit 1 dress or mainpiece. 
* theme like colors and motifs together so it's much easier for you to build outfits as wearable fashion than in a costumey way. 
* don't be afraid to mix and match brands!

I know a lot of folks are upset with 2010-era swee I know a lot of folks are upset with 2010-era sweet secondhand prices heavily increasing in value, myself included! however this is a reminder for you to be kind to yourself, and try not to beat yourself up so much if you sold a piece you now regret. 
.
I COMPLETELY regret selling Sugary Carnival and Deco Dream (pictured here), but they will come up again, trends shift and change. 
.
I think I should write more on my blog about this, but I personally think some lolitas are using this trend as a form of escapism. once COVID begins to wane and we can return to some semblance of "normalcy" again, including events and conventions, I think we'll see a serious return to 2012-2015 era OTT classic-sweet, and super OTT looks in general! what do you think?

handcrafted with love in Massachusetts!! Stephanie is in my local comm and is a wonderfully talented artist 💕 I plan on posting a full review at a later date on my blog, but here you can see a preview of my most recent commission!
.
the set includes a half-apron, wristcuffs, collar, and headband. to make the set more versatile and functional, I asked @pebblesteph to make all ribbons detachable, and commissioned extra ribbons to complement the colorways that pop up in my wardrobe most often. I'm so so happy with the final results! the bracelets are Dreamy Pebble as well!!
