20 Outfits From 2012
Hello again, everyone! Evidently, 2012 was my most prolific year of laziness ever, as I made only one d_l post at the very beginning of the year, and then slacked off for the next 11 months. Here's a compilation of everything I wore over that span, including gothic outfits, classic outfits, casual outfits, and some questionable facial expressions.
DISCLAIMER: I wear a lot of makeup and take pictures of all sorts of qualities, ranging from fancy to filthy. I apologize in advance for both of these things. Enjoy!
nbsp;
I was too dumb to take pictures of myself before the Valentine's Day meet-up, so I snapped a few in the bathroom of a vegan diner! Yes, I know that I'm mindblowingly classy.
Outfit Rundown: Dress from Victorian Maiden, blouse from Innocent World, bow from Atelier-Pierrot, choker-being-used-as-a-belt from Chantilly with a pin from Millefleurs, tights from Hot Topic.
nbsp;
February ended with a photshoot where I felt up a pillar. For more pictures of this collaboration with Aperture Ashley, check out my deviantArt account: http://danipuffins.deviantart.com/
Outfit Rundown: Blouse, skirt, choker, and socks from moitie, headdress from BtSSB with a Victorian Maiden pin, picture frame from IKEA.
nbsp;
In March, I did an ero lolita shoot in the studio with Richard Braxton. Again, you can see a couple more pictures from this photoshoot over at my deviantArt account.
First Outfit Rundown: Blouse from Antique Beast, corset from Atelier-Pierrot, socks from Moitie, thigh-highs from Victoria's Secret, wristcuffs from AP.
Second Outfit Rundown: Blouse and headdress from Innocent World, skirt from Antique Beast, petticoat from Angelic Pretty, shoes from An*tai*na.
A casual schoolgirl-y outfit for the first day of Anime Matsuri in April! Not a very good shot of my backpack, but it was black with white lace and super kawaii.
Outfit Rundown: Bolero, cutsew, skirt, and socks from BtSSB, shoes from LingLam.
Day 2 of Anime Matsuri, in the BtSSB designer's hotel suite with my hair and makeup done for the fashion show! (the hat, obviously, was not part of my original coordinate) Check out an amazing recording of the fashion show here-- my walk begins at 13:45, right before Midori, NO PRESSURE OR ANYTHING THOUGH.
Outfit Rundown: Blouse from Innocent World, skirt from AAtP.
nbsp;
For the final day of Anime Matsuri, insecurelobster and I twinned in Gathers Chiffon as classy heiresses. We tried to pull up to the BtSSB tea party in a horse-drawn carriage, but then the concierge informed us that it wouldn't fit in the elevator-- so we settled on being carried there by heaving manservants.
nbsp;
I made it a point to bring my (empty) sparkly flask with me-- because what is an heiress without her booze and lack of self control?
Outfit Rundown: Dress and socks and headdress and purse from BtSSB, fur shrug borrowed from my mom's costume closet, necklace and bracelets from Charming Charlie, other accessories from Forever 21, flask of glorious tackiness from Claire's.
nbsp;
This is what I wore to my senior banquet at school, because I give no shits.
Outfit Rundown: Dress and headdress from Atelier-Pierrot, blouse from Dear Celine, wristcuffs from AP, necklace from Closet Child's line of cheap jewelry.
For the opening day of A-kon 23, I dressed as Rarity from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic-- but if she were a lolita! I'm not a brony, but I had several friends who were cosplaying humanized versions of the ponies, and they asked if I wanted to join. How could I possibly turn down the opportunity to flounce around as a human unicorn?
nbsp;
Another outing with my all-time favorite photographer, Aperture Ashley! The rest of the photoshoot can be viewed on my deviantArt account.
Outfit Rundown: Dress from Atelier-Pierrot, blouse and headdress and wristcuffs from BtSSB, socks and peeping petticoat from Angelic Pretty, purse from Metamorphose, shoes from Hot Topic-- and, yes, they were poorly designed for the human foot and should probably be used as instuments of torture and not as shoes.
nbsp;
Headed to the A-kon lolita meet-up (with Rarity eyeshadow still on) in my janky wig! I styled it myself, but I'm a pretty horrible hairdresser, so I suppose that's just what I get for believing in my skill with scissors.
Outfit Rundown: Skirt and headdress from AAtP, socks from Chantilly, blouse from Dear Celine, purse from AP, shoes from An*tai*na.
nbsp;
nbsp;
Shooting with Ashley again, this time dressed as myself!
Outfit Rundown: Blouse from BtSSB, vest from BPN, skirt from Atelier-Pierrot, headdresses from AAtP and Moitie, purse from AP, tights from Hot Topic, shoes from An*tai*na, crown and necklace and crown from EJPcreations.
A sorta casual outfit for running around outside at a meet-up in the heat of summer. You can't really tell here, but those shoes are the exact same shade of purple as the skirt!
Outfit Rundown: Blouse from Antique Beast, skirt from Atelier-Pierrot, necklace from Target.
Thrown-together Old School outfit for my audition to be in a calendar for a local goth club. Somehow, I was chosen! My picture from the calendar is at the bottom of this post.
Outfit Rundown: Blouse, bow, and socks from BtSSB, skirt from AP, shoes from An*tai*na.

For a Halloween meet-up! Unfortunately, Lassie was not there to supervise me, so I fell into the well.
Everyone mourned my death woefully, including myself.
Outfit Rundown: Dress and headdress from AAtP, corset from Antique Beast, and everything else from Fuck If I Know I Just Buy Stuff At Random.
nbsp;

Lookin' girly for a lolita parfait party. Check out that calorie-loaded trifle I put together!
Outfit Rundown: Blouse and skirt from Angelic Pretty, bow from BtSSB, accessories from creepyyeha, mintymix, and F21, shoes from An*tai*na.
Going clubbing! This classifies as punk lolita, right? Next time, I'll wear a petticoat, so that the gorgeous embroidery on the front of the skirt stands out more!
Outfit Rundown: Blouse from Antique Beast, skirt from h.naoto, bow from BtSSB, wristcuffs from AP, shoes from An*tai*na.
nbsp;
On my way to another meet-up in a frankensteined headdress!
A better shot of my tights and shoes! Please note the grinning employee to the left. He was so delighted by all of our outfits, he asked to take a picture with us, and gave several of the girls free drink coupons!
Outfit Rundown: Dress from AAtP, blouse from Antique Beast, wristcuffs from AP, tights from Refuse to Be Usual, shoes from Charming Charlie.
Christmas meet-up at a fancy hotel! I received a giftbox from our White Elephant Exchange that matched my outfit perfectly, so I carried it around in my hand the rest of the meet.

Celebrating my Japanniversary with insecurelobster!
Outfit Rundown: Dress and bolero from Innocent World, bow from Atelier-Pierrot, socks from Claire's (the shame), accessories from Sam Moon and F21.
Somehow, this is the only picture I have of myself from the night of the calendar release party.
I blame the rumpled towels on my boyfriend.
Outfit Rundown: Blouse from Moitie, dress from Atelier-Pierrot, bow from BtSSB.
Myself as Miss October from The "Girls of The Church" calendar! There was another photo on my calendar page where I was desperately trying to be sexy, but you don't get to see that one because it turned out with me looking like I was having a stroke.
