Lolita Blog Carnival: Disney Coordinates

It's that time of the week again...Lolita Blog Carnival! This week we're looking at all things DISNEY. If you don't love Disney, you're lying.


I'm choosing to focus on Minnie Mouse, because I don't have energy for this and it's an easy one to pick as there are already so many great coords!


Angelic Pretty dresses lend themselves well to Minnie Mouse coords. Fantasic Dolly is one that springs to mind.


Dot Midnight Doll would be a cute one too!


A good excuse to wear animal ears with lolita! I even saw ones like this for about £3 at H&M recently.


And chunky yellow shoes would finish off the look! Antaina has a bunch of character accurate ones, but I'm rather taken with these Vivienne Westwood Melissa ones.

How would you style a Disney-themed outfit?

Lolita Blog Carnival: Create A Flower Themed Coordinate

I'm contributing to this week's Lolita Blog Carnival theme a tad late, as I knew I was going to wear a flower theme coord to Enchanted! This was my first time wearing Angelic Pretty's Romantic Rose Letter, and it truly is a dream.


This was my first time wearing lenses and lashes! The lashes were so uncomfortable, but the lenses were mostly fine (I'll review them another time).


Shot before leaving. Was really difficult cramming the princess sleeves into my bolero! I didn't sort my hair out until I was in London as it was easier and I didn't want to risk missing my bus!


A more natural light shot. I'd wanted to wear a bonnet too, but there wasn't room on my head OTL


(This photo was by Hayley, I couldn't find any others...such bad lighting in the venue!)

OP, necklace, & bag are Angelic Pretty, headband is by Florrie Clarke, bolero is Bodyline, socks are Topshop, shoes and some accessories are BTSSB.


And music from the journey to the station in the morning, hehe.

Lolita Blog Carnival: A Casual Coordinate for a Quiet Day

There are lots of occasions when you want to dress up nicely, but either don't have the energy or want to remain comfortable since you aren't doing anything special. In this Lolita Blog Carnival post I'm going to show some of my old casual coords. To be honest, a lot of my coords are casual because I'm a lazy butt!


This is a recent one I wore to visit my grandparents for tea. Fully-shirred OPs may look pretty gross, but they're so comfortable!


This is one from last Summer, and the quality is awful, sorry! It was a super hot day and we were just having a picnic and dossing around in the sun, so a coord without socks and blouse was ideal.


An even more casual one from two years ago! This was just for going over my boyfriend's house and I had to walk to town comfortably.


One last one from a whopping 3 years ago! This is my favourite kind of casual coord, with a short Angelic Pretty skirt or dress and comfy cosy layers and boots. Although these skirts often look a little awkward for some reason!

This post wasn't really what I'd wanted to do for this theme, but I've been working overtime and super early mornings so I didn't have the energy to make up a new cute coord for this =[ Hopefully next time!

Lolita Blog Carnival: 1 Piece, 4 Seasons

This week's Lolita Blog Carnival sees us picking one piece and coordinating it for each of the four seasons!

I had a hard time picking a piece for this topic, but I decided to go with Day Dream Carnival since I've not coordinated (or even tried it on) it yet. Also I think a skirt allows for more flexibility in terms of coordination!


Sorry they're just chucked out, I have no space to model them unfortunately. Also no accessories out as they'd be difficult to see (plus they're scattered goodness knows where thanks to my mother).

Spring


Spring is a good chance to bust out sheer fabrics and cute little socks! Floral accessories are good for giving a feeling of spring, as are light flowing fabrics á la cult party kei.

Summer


For hot Summer days, a cute cutsew and no socks! Minimal accessories and lighter shades keep you cool. Why not use a parasol too if you are sensitive to sun? A big bag is essential so you can take along a light cardigan, sun lotion, and plenty of water to keep hydrated! A sun hat would be ideal, but unfortunately I do not have one.

Autumn


Autumn can be cold and wet, so a hoodie or jacket and thick OTKs are a good idea. Boots are great for crunching through piles of leaves!

Winter


Thick fluffy jacket, boots, tights, and layer it up! I like to wear long-sleeved tops underneath my blouses as I get very cold. Stash away extra layers such as gloves and scarves in your bag, along with a flask of tea or hot chocolate to keep toasty.

I made a video post trying out each of these outfits too!


So that's how I'd coord a piece for different seasons! What would you do differently?
