Dream Print

Hi everyone! Hope you all are well.
 
Today, I got my dream skirt!
 
 
It's Fairy Tale from Metamorphose Temps de Fille.
 
I absolutely love this skirt! It's a bit different than I was expecting.
 
They call it a "mini skirt" which is pretty misleading. I was expecting it to be quite a bit shorter than it is, but it's the perfect length.
And the fabric is textured. It has kind of a rough feel to it, but it certainly doesn't feel cheap.
 

Another thing I'm happy about is the fact that it has full shirring. It had a crazy amount of stretch to it.
 
And the lace is some of the softest I've ever felt. It's beautiful.
 
All in all I'm really pleased with it. It's my first item from Meta and I absolutely adore it. I've dreamed about this print, in this colorway for so long and now I finally have it *^^* I'm happy.
 
 
What are some of your dream prints?

Semi-hiatus

Hi everyone. I hope you are all doing well.

For the time being I will not be accessing the internet much unless it is to pay a bill, check my bank, etc. 

I was so hoping that I would get more opportunity to blog this Spring, but some unfortunate circumstances have left me wondering what I'm going to do with my life. I've made a few big mistakes and I am having a difficult time facing the consequences of my actions.

I've been neglecting my body and my spirit for so long that I think, in a way, my personality has changed. Sure, I buy nice things for myself (makeup, lolita, and so on) but those were just attempts at "self soothing." I need some time to reflect on the choices I've made and make some hard decisions.

I want to change. Not only for the ones I love, but for myself. I deserve it and so do they.

I still intend to post from time to time, but they will be few and far between... at least for the next 2-3 months.

Thank you, all of my lovely readers and subscribers <3

I hope to be in a better place next time I post.

Happy Valentine's Day

So, I know I'm a day late, but Happy Valentine's Day!
Did you all do anything fun?

Yesterday, my boyfriend took me out. I was so happy to get to spend the day with him.

First, we went for breakfast at Village Inn. I always enjoy their pancakes :9~~

Then he took me to a nearby theater and we saw Warm Bodies. I'm not a huge fan of zombies, but this movie was surprisingly good. It was actually a pretty cute story.

And then he took me to a miniature golf/ arcade place and we played for quite some time. We won 154 tickets (most of them his) so I got a dinosaur coloring book for my little cousin :3

The only thing that sucked was the fact that it snowed.



On a side note, I was able to purchase one of my dream prints from egl. I can't wait for it to arrive.


It's Meta's Fairy Tale print! I've rarely seen this print up for sale, and I can't believe I was able to get it in the color I wanted. I would have preferred the JSK but I'm just happy to have the print.

If anyone has the matching headdress and socks for sale, I would love to purchase them.


Have a good weekend.
