• Blouse: Forever 21
• Vest: Liz Lisa
• Skirt: Pintuck Ribbon Skirt: Metamorphose Temps de Fille

For most outfit posts, if I include a date, assume that I wore it then. I’m not good at taking self-photos and I’m really not photogenic at all. ;_;

That’s my first Liza Lisa item! $6 auction, huehuehuehueheue.

Also, please note that I finally have to start putting a source on my photos. I’m sorry if it’s a hassle, but I got wind of someone who has been stealing my photos and removing all credit. It’s been deleted since but not cool. :c I don’t mind if you removing my blithering, just don’t remove the outfit breakdown and the source!

• Wool beret with chiffon bow pin
• Forever 21 Blouse with offbrand necktie
• Dear Creatures - Seberg Dress Mustard w/ White Dots

Slightly differing outfit from Monday’s trek to school.

I got the dress from Dear Creature’s sample sale in Pasadena. I got to meet the designers and discuss an internship with them. ;_;

I spewed spaghetti like no one’s business.

100% cotton polkadot skirt, with a two-channel elastic waistband. 100% polyester interlock knit lining. All seams are finished. Horsehair braid in the hem for added shape.

I love churning out this skirt, and it’s pretty much my favorite use for awkward quilting fabrics. The horsehair braid makes a huge difference in shape! But I’m gonna need a lot more elastic. Those tiny packs you buy in retail stores are pathetic.

The is the second skirt for Bloomuffin.

Now I can die in peace.

It’s me in the wild! Awkward and covered in delicious crepe cream.

Thanks to my darling for taking a photo of me, because I honestly don’t have too many when I’m dressed and about. She also gave me some bomb makeup tips and showed me which products that would work for my skin. I got an even complexion and I have never had acne (not even through puberty), but I avoid makeup often because I find most products to be really irritating a few hours after application. Essentially, I have a glass cannon for a face, and it honestly bothered me that I couldn’t look as polished for photos as other bloggers, so no photos it is.

Taking the advantage of my break before I have to shuttle back off to LA though.

The rightful Fancy Egg is finally here, so have a spontaneous and simple outfit! A review will be up later tonight (and apologies for the egg spam, I’m just really excited it’s finally here).

I’m planning on making a few underskirts this month to multiply the amount of outfits I can make. Fancy Egg is going to get a pretty gold one all for itself. I just need the right golden hue…

Navy and pink is fast becoming one of my favorite combinations. It’s such a refreshing  pairing after being swamped by pastels and neons.

• necklace: Forever 21
• sweater: American Eagle Outfitters
• corsage: Mary Magdalene
• skirt: Forever 21

Pair this outfit with a top bun and flower clip, navy tights and pink flats and you got yourself a faux-ballerina outfit!

I decided on a hunch and whim to revisit a thrift store again before heading back to LA… I do this rather often and it never fails. Does it count as a 6th sense? A denim jacket was the prize of the day. It’s probably a child’s XXL.

Anyways, here’s three fall outfits that all use the same denim jacket. It’s super versatile, isn’t it? I find that that lolita is very reliant on matching colors so it was pretty inspiring to mix it up a bit.
