some March outfit co-ords

Here are some outfits that I have put together that i plan on wearing soon! some more classic, some more country (like the first). I'm sorry theres not many things with the same pieces, it was laundry day when i tuck these. I plan on doing more soon! 

being a lifestyle lolita.

I've been thinking about this for the past couple of weeks, what does it mean to be a lifestyle lolita; how do you know your a lifestyle loli? Do you dress in loli everyday? Do you go to meetups? Are you a popular loli? I was trying to figure out points that defines what a lifestyle lolita was when it occurred to me:

"Life style lolita" is just another category that we can pigeon-hole ourselves into.

You dont really need to do anything out of the ordinary to be a lifestyle loli, you just need to be yourself. Sure maybe the one requirement is that you enjoy japanese fashion but you dont need to change who you are to be one. Just like in high school with the "jocks" and "preps" you dont try to be one its just who you are, your on a school sport team and somehow your a jock, but theres so much more to you then that. you shouldn't let one factor of your life define you.

You are what you are and thats ok. just be yourself and let other people worry about defining you.

A life style loli enjoys whatever she pleases, be that tea time or rock concerts. she can not be defined.

Sucrerie magazine

This is a handy online magazine that helps out us western lolitas! Its colourful pages are up to date and offer many tips and tricks for beginning and full-time lolitas evan though its not the most professional mag out there. The only thing that really bugs me about it is how there aren't many (if any) tutorials.

However i am thinking of maybe submitting a tutorial for how to make a basic skirt, (one thats easy and patternless) but i don't know if i have the fabric to do it right now but i could always pull together photos or make a mini one or something, its not that hard as long as you have a sewing machine.

Heres the link to Sucrerie Mag. You should really check it out.
