Make new from old

Hey everyone :3 

Since I hate my Melty Chocolate Replica and own the brands one, I had something to do with that crap-dress -.- It feels so annoying everytime I looked in my closet, so I destroyed it !!! >w<
Well... not for real :'D I only made a new piece out of it. 


I'm always searching for garments that are suitably for school or just everyday life.
For that reason, I thought that a skirt with the replica's print would be nice.
And yeah.. I did it :D 
(I don't know why I look so fat on this pic o.o')

Unfortunatly the result is not what I was looking for but yeah.. not everything works. 
Maybe the replica's fabric is the reason why it falls not so smooth :( It's a very sturdier fabric ._.

Anyway... nevertheless I think I could wear it sometimes
 just for shopping or hanging around with friends.


Love,

Replica vs. Brand

Hey Guys image

Today I want to discuss the very annoying topic: 
Brand vs. Replica


In my Lolita beginnings, I bought three Angelic Pretty style replicas... Now two years have passed and I own five brand dresses. Three of them are from Angelic Pretty. The last dress I bought, was the Melty Chocolate Jumperskirt by AP, from which I also own the replica. Since I could compare the two dresses I must say, that brand is much better than the fake dress. I mean, the real dress is around 300€, the replica was 40€... When I was new in Lolita, I thought: "Wow ! A Angelic Pretty looking dress only for 40€ !" But now I know why it was so cheap :-/ I never was really happy with the melty chocolate fake.. And I considered a lot about buying the real one, 'cause I was scared that the brand dress looks and feels similar to the replica. But everything is different ! Better lace, softer fabric, it fits better and is more comfy. All the details are missing at the replica. At the first sign you don't see it, but if you look at it in detail and touch it in reality you will understand what I mean.





The other important thing is: You ruining the business of the brand!
Lolita brands are often very small and the designers have to work very hard.
Lolita brand dresses are very expensive through, but if you want a cheap dress, you better buy from a indiebrand or Bodyline. Indiebrand dresses have even more quality than replicas. 

It's not that I only want to buy the "name" and boast with my brand. (Like some people did with apple products...) It is really about the quality. I also have some nice cheap dresses ;)

 I never thought that I will write about this topic but I had it on my heart when I saw the big difference between my melty chocolate replica and the real melty dress, which I really love! 
That was the dress I ever dreamed of and the replica almost took my joy of it.
  

What do you think of replicas and brand? Write a comment ;3

Very Berry


Hey Cuties <3


As I told you, I was in Ultrecht at the Lolita Teaparty and made a twin-outfit with my friend Yuki <3
In this case I want to show you the awesome Accessoires we made together :3 
All of the jewelry we made, includes a lot of strawberries and roses.

Kawaii graphics

First of all we made a wonderful headdress. The materials we bought at a little town, near Yukis place. We found many roses, pearls, strawberries and some other stuff. Without any concrete imagination we glued all the stuff together and yeah, here is our result :D :

 It looks soo good on her :3 

As always I had a problem to find matching earings..  'cause I can't wear earrings. I decided to make another pair of plugs with small strawberry pendants. 

Next I want to show you two rings. The first one is made out of Fimo. 
The ring is very small, so it tooks a time to make it look like a bow x_x .


For the second one I uses a childrens hairclip that I spoted in a shop for kids. I removed the clip and glued the cupcake on a bow.


Moreover I craft a necklace for me and Yuki. It is also made with my beloved Fimo :D!

After all the jewelry I want to tell about our funny sewing-action xD
We wanted to sew a blouse or cutsew in red. Yuki wanted red fabric with white dots... but I thought it would look to overfilled. Than I spoted the gorgeous chiffon ! Luckily I convinced Yuki and we bought it... But I didn't know what absolutly annoying fabric it was >__< 
I had to buy a special needle for that crap :D Well, it was worth the effort :)

 It was the first time that I sewed a blouse.. it isn't perfect but I like it though :)

Since we could get enough, we lastly sewed a matching bag. And we used Yukis selected dot-fabric :D


Finally I want to show you a picture of our complete outfits:



Hope you like it image 


Love,

Shirahoshi Cosplay - Animagic day 2


Hey my dears,

as I told you, I made a Cosplay of Shirahoshi from the Manga and Anime "One Piece".
The Animagic weekend was really hot and on saturday it even was 33°C !! image

So it was a reeeeally good decision to cosplay the cute mermaid. She only wears a binkini, her fins and some earrings. Because of her light pink hair I had to wear a wig, too. I was suprised not to die under this long wig ^^ I also wear contact lenses in blue ^_^ Shirahoshi has sooo wonderful blue eyes. We took amazing pictures in the river called "Rhein". Shirahoshi cries in every situation image She's a bit shy and afraid of everything ^^ So I also cryed the whole day.. no, just kidding image Hihi






It was soo refreshing to put my legs..oh.. I mean fins :D into the cool water. 
The only thing that was a bit difficult, was to walk in the skinny skirt. 
When I sewed the fin, I noticed that I can't walk in it... so I cut it in the middle and added Velcro tape on the borders. If someone wanted to take a photo I put the fin's lower part with the skirt together.




My boyfriend Thiemo was my cosplaypartner ^_^ He also cosplayed a character from One Piece. It was Luffy, the main character ! He looked soo cute in it :3 



His cosplay I also made by myself. For the shirt I used the patterns out of the Otome no sewing book for Lolita clothes. Actually the patterns were for a blouse ^^
It was a really nice day and I felt like a real mermaid princess https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRGXsxGx81qB3KYHGlZZSTRmXCuDTSejrRkoPgxJS4r6Zhf1Lnx

Animagic Outfit - Friday


Hey guys !

Last Weekend I visited one of the biggest Anime Conventions in Germany:
The Animagic 2013

For that reason I needed three lovely Outfits. 
I decided to wear two Lolita outfits and one Cosplay. The whole weekend it was really hot, so it was a good decision, to cosplay the One Piece character Shirahoshi. She's a Mermaid and lightly dressed.

Today I want to show you my Lolita outfit of the first day at Animagic.
I wanted to wear my Dreamy Dollhouse jsk by Angelic Pretty like last year, but there was a lot of missing things, like matching jewelry and accressoires.. 
So I produced a necklace and two rings that matches the dresses print. 


(It was really hard to draw that pony xD)

I also bought some new hair accessoires from chocomint and Angelic Pretty:

All in all I'm really happy about the outfit and the development compared to the last year image 

The wig wasn't the best.. blonde is not my color. My Petticoat wasn't fluffy and too long. And the socks were horrible xD So this year I did better^^ The only thing that annoys me is my parasol..

Lastly I have a special photo for you that scares me a bit :D!



Well, I look forward to next year ^_^ (hopefully with a Baby, The Stars Shine Bright parasol^^)  

Love,
