Versailles Halloween Masquerade

The day before Halloween Versailles played a special concert for their fanclub. It was a masquerade-themed event, and everyone was expected to wear masks. The members themselves were all in costumes.

I bought a new dress and prepared a matching set of nails for this occasion.

Unfortunately all of the pictures were taken after the gig, when my hair became flatter,  and my corset loosened.

 Still inside the livehouse.

And outside. They threw us out quite fast. 

 Hair...

 ... and make up...

 ... and nails.

Outfit rundown:
OP & blouse: Atelier Pierrot
hair accessories: Carine e Arlequin, Claire's
necklace & earrings: Bijou Brigitte
shoes: Bodyline

I was playing with makeup the other day. I haven't used much colourful makeup recently. It's been just brown and black for me. So here's some purple for a change.

A few days ago I bought something I never thought I'd buy.

Flat. Heavy. Unfeminine. So not my style. Yet I love them.

And I got this PEACE NOW shirt at Closet Child yesterday for only 1700 yen.

That's it for now! I want to start taking more outfit shots but we'll see about that.

Special Amazing Band

I still can't get over the fact that Masashi, Hizaki, and Kaya called their session band "Special Amazing Band".

Anyway, this is what I wore to see them.

Right after the show.

Back home, with my make up touched up and my hair fixed.

Outfit rundown:
JSK: Innocent World
blouse: Btssb
shoes: Bodyline
rest: offbrand

Late birthday post

September 1 was my birthday. To celebrate, my friends and I had a girls night out at one of the many Alice-themed cafes in Tokyo.

The pictures we took are not the best quality, but I hope you enjoy them anyway.

We were sat in the middle of a maze.

The beautiful menu looks like an antique book.

Our drink arrived first. They did not look to be Alice-themed despite their names, but they looked and tasted great anyway.

Vegetable salad was served as an appetizer.

Cat's tail pizza!

The best part of any meal - desserts.

One of the amazing gifts I received. A bottle of delicious strawberry and ginger flavoured liqueur. Thank you girls!

Our whole group. I know that at least one person in this photo doesn't like to show her face. I hope the rest don't mind.

Outfit rundown:
JSK: Alice and the Pirates
blouse: Btssb
socks & shoes: Innocent World
hair accessory: Carina e Arlequin

So... long time no see?

I went to Vampire Cafe with some friends a while ago.

Photographing all black outfits in artificial light? Isn't it lovely.

At least the purikura turned out nice.

The way the food is served is so tacky, I just can't help but love it.

 A tortilla cross and a chocolate coffin? Why not!


Some other day I bought this dress with a cherry print.

I haven't worn lolita much recently. Whenever I try, it just feels wrong. But this skirt was made by my grandma and I wanted to wear it.

skirt: handmade
cutsaw & socks: Moi meme Moitie
corset/overskirt: BPN
hat: MOHITO
shoes: Bodyline

And this is what was written on my friend's dress:

 

Versailles sign session

This is what I wore to today's Versailles sign session at Christon Cafe.

dress: Victorian Maiden
headband: Moi meme Moitie
necklace: Closet Child
earrings: BLESS
shoes: QUAZI

It was very windy, so my hair is a little messy. And I really need a nice pair of sexy, black, high-heeled pumps for this dress.

"Photoshoot" aka camwhoring

A friend is staying at my place, and yesterday we went to take some picture in my neighbourhood. I live in a working class area, and the idea was to make these photos as casually Japanese as possible. Not the kind of Japanese street fashion you see on fashion blogs, but the kind of outfit that regular girls wear on a daily basis. The scenery worked really well for this.

Anyway, this is the result of our silliness:

No skyscrapers of Shinjuku. No shopping shopping centres of Shibuya. No popular temples or traditional clothing. No extreme fashions from Meiji bridge. Just Japan. The kind most people don't know.

UnsraW

It's self explanatory, isn't it?

I didn't want to go to this show sober, but getting me drunk is just too expensive, so I gave up XD

No outfit rundown, because probably everything I wore that day is from random off-brand shops.

Stained Glass

I pre-ordered the new Moitie dress, Stained Glass in black x red gradient. There was a delay in production but it finally arrived at my doorstep today. At least the delay wasn't as bad as when Silent Moon was released, so I guess they're improving...

Isn't it beautiful? Actually, it's a little less beautiful worn. The waist is definitely not where natural waist should be, but it's not quite high enough to be empire. Well, I guess it's closer to empire than natural waist.

Here are some details.

Overall, I'm happy with it, though I'm not amazed. Still, Moitie finally realised that red is a valid colour, so how could I not be happy XD Now I'm just waiting for a monotone print in red! How awesome would that be?! Can you imagine... Iron Gate in red on black?! One can dream XD
