Story Time: My Lolita Tale

First Row(left to right): Gothic, Sweet, Shiro, Kuro
Second Row: Hime, Country, Sailor, Classic
Third Row: Punk, Guro, Ero, Maid/Cosplay
Fourth Row: Aristocrat, Wa, and lastly, Oji/Kodona
It's really not as dramatic as the title, hehe. But here we go. This is my lolita story. I first encountered lolita probably through anime when I was young. Maybe 14 or so. It was punk lolita. Chains, ties, cool metal stuff on my clothes, eyeliner...it looked (and still looks) pretty cool to me, even if at the moment I definitely wouldn't do it, but respect those who do. But at the time I was into covering my figure a lot. I was conscious about me being fat, gross, ugly, all of that...and even though I really wanted to be into lolita, this was my first road block that stopped me...my own self-consciousness.

Sewing Adventures: Lolita Skirt!


Hi everyone, it's Lin with exciting news! I finally made my first lolita piece of clothing... simple half elastic skirt! This is my first time ever really doing a piece of clothing in general...I've never really did anything people could wear other than this, so I'm happy.

I wanted to post my own "lolita story", but I think it'll have to wait. I'll probably do an audio for it instead, in case you guys wanna hear it.

Sewing Adventures: Doggy Coat!


Hey everyone! It's Lin here with a new blog post. Sorry it took so long...there's been a lot of things that been going on, including lots of distractions and the like. I did get a LOT of sewing done within the last 2 weeks though. The next two posts will be about the projects I worked on. But this post will be about one of them...a dual sided coat I made for my doggy, Nia!
