Package time : Angelic Pretty Sweet Girl Room


~Sweet Girl's Room~

I finally got this dress after waiting what felt like an eternity it! Finally we are together at last, slightly worn and used but never the less mine forever *-* Angelic Pretty Sweet Girl Room OP in glorious ivory!

Angelic Pretty Sweet Girl Room OP.

Jumping onto the sack dress brand wagon I couldn't help myself go after this gem when I found it pop up on auctions at a steal. I wanted this so much even though it was already worn and used. At the time Angelic Pretty had the dress up for sale on their website but I was still hesitant to order online since I hadn't a clue what to do so when with Tenshi-Shop instead to try to win the auction.

It wasn't till after winning the auction + fee's shipping etc that I realised that it would have been better and CHEAPER to have bought it directly from the site instead >-> mistake learned. but never the less I was happy to have this dress.

The package was so light an came within about 2 weeks~ish via Airmail to Australia,



oh, also grabbed a bracelet too.

The dress was packaged in a paper bag to  protect it which makes me more then happy since some seller/SS sometimes ignore this factor.



I love it so much and the print is so unique and couldn't not love it. Out of all the new prints in the year I really liked this one as non of the other's caught my eye quiet as much as Sweet Girls room. I would love to have the jsk in the same colour way or the skirt in maybe pink but when I'm actually balling with money and I can splash out I think I can console my self with my potato sack dress <3

Goodbye 2014 and hello 2015!

So the start of a new year has come and we farewell the old. This past year has been a great, not so great, stressful and a joyous year for me and is a little sad to see it go but as always we must press on as the future holds new experiences!

2014 was my year that I really got involved in the Lolita community here in Sydney and meet some extraordinarily nice people. I was so worried about not being liked or accepted in the comm as of all the drama I've heard but all those fears were fell out the window as everyone was so lovely! 


Along with being more active in the community I've found my confidence grow and found my feet. I am different from what I was a year ago and have come quite far from that depressed shy girl I used to be. So I'm so thankful for the Lolita community in helping me and my esteem.

With being involved in the community I've found my wardrobe grow heavily and finding what I colours I gravitate to the most. My big splurge had to be the end of year sales at Angelic Pretty. My weakness is sales, especially 50% off ones in which I can't say no too. 

This year I've only missed out on 2 Angelic Pretty dress I've dearly wanted  which were Wrapping ribbon Jsk in mint and Cosmetic Girl OP in Sax and only 2 Btssb/Aatp dresses which were Funeral procession of rose and Guilty Melty Jsk. But in all I was able to grab a large amount of dressed I'd been dying for and can't be happier :3

2014 had brought me a big accomplishment in regards to finishing half of my HSC! I originally tried to finish my final year at high school in 2013 but found it so hard to cope with and manage my life due to home issues and bullying so dropped out. I tried again in 2014 and decided to split my subjects up so that I could have a  lesser load and less stress. I wanting to give up and just quit but persistently carried on and I was able to finish my half of my final. So 2015 will be the year I totally finish the HSC as my load for will be only 2 subjects and then I get my HSC and then to University.

I look forward to 2015 as I have so much I want to accomplish and a lot to look forward too, meeting new friends and having new experiences <3


New Year Resolution 2015!

As with every new year comes a new year's resolution. This year I'm trying to fulfill my resolutions that I make and not skip out on them (Which normally happens). So for 2015 I've made a little list of resolutions/goals that I will work hard to complete this year.

1. Get through this year's schooling without going crazy.
2. loose some weight =-=;
3. Limit spending to a minimum.
4. Save for Japan.
5. Succeed this year.
6. Get Furniture for room.

The two main resolutions I'll try to work harder against would be weight and limit spending. I ,myself isn't the smallest Lolita in the comm so I'd definitely benefit from a few Kg lighter. Also spending in general, I spend too much and mostly on impulse buys so I have to stop and save up for my japan trip at the end of 2014.

Well this was just a tiny short post and doubt anyone would care :3

Reunited at last!





~*~FINALLY! WE ARE TOGETHER AGAIN!~*~


After searching night and day for auctions with this print I finally. FINALLY SCORE IT! XD

This was my fist Angelic Pretty print I ever bought back when I  was getting started. I bought the skirt back in the beginning of 2013 of Candy Fun Fair in red in which I had asked the seller if the measurements of the skirt would fit me where I was answered with a yes. Bbbuutt when it came....nope. nudda. it wouldn't goddamn zip. I was heart broken.

I loved the skirt and the print, the colour and everything. Unfortunately I had to sell it off even with my attempts at trying to loose weight ;-; But thankfully a year and a few months later....and many lost auctions, I have now been reunited with my beloved print.
༼ つ ◕w◕ ༽つ joy joy!



As some may know from my Tumblr and it's influx of Candy Fun Fair related posts~ I'm extremely happy about getting this print and in a cut that fits me! I love Angelic Pretty's red colourway's they produce even though they are rather hard to coord normally, I really love this print especially the rose bouquet and carts. I never realized these details till after I had sold my skirt.


I used Chibi-Tenshi's service as always to snag the dress. I had just sold a lucky pack to a nice girl in the US and from the money had enough to buy that dress and another. I had originally stalked the dress's auction and gradually saw the listing price fall as no one was bidding on it. it originally was priced at 15,000 yen but fell down quite a bit and had a buy it now. I swooped down to snag it like the mastic thing that I am~


And here it is!




So extremely happy right now!

Feeling a bit Purple today~

Recently I've been feeling  like a change in my appearance and decided to go all out and do something spontaneous  for a change and colour my hair. I've coloured my hair before but only with the little hair dye boxes you get at your local supermarket in natural shades. I had stopped dying my hair since the start of the year but found myself lacking.

To start everything, I had jokingly said that I'd get my cousin to dye my hair jokingly. But the thing is with family members that are hairdressers is that they follow through with things when hair is involved =--=; and so the next minute, I see my cousin with gloves, a bag of hair bleach and dyes so there was no backing down now.

She bleached my hair first outside.



Took about 6 hrs to get my hair that shade of blonde and I always had to wash it out with each layer of bleach. My scalp hurt like hell but I guess that was expected, couldn't bleach it white due to the fact my hair would have fallen out.  After all the bleaching was complete the colour could go on, but being my cousin she didn't get the right purple for me and brought me dark vivid ones when I asked for lilac =-=; next time I guess.

So this is the finished product.


Not the colour I  was going for and some of the purple didn't take to my hair properly but all in all it's manageable. I'm thinking of dying it green next time.
