2014 Wardrobe Post
Hello! This is my second wardrobe post and the first time I have actually managed to post it on time. I made one of my friends promise to do a wardrobe post if I did one, and she beat me to it by a week, so that seems to have encouraged me to actually post on time this year lol. I've tried to make it more entertaining for you buy tossing in a coord photo here and there. My apologies for how picture-heavy this is @_@. I've been wearing lolita for about 7 years now, but I've only been buying brand items for the last 3, so most of what you see below has been bought in the last year or two.
I'm a daily lolita so I seem to have acquired a larger wardrobe out of necessity. Right now I have two mostly separate wardrobes. The first, and largest, is a sweet-classic lolita wardrobe. I tend to wear either classic dresses, or sweet dresses coordinated to look more classic. My second wardrobe is aristocrat. I'm allowed to wear that to work (I work in a lab) so I tend to keep it separate from my lolita, so I've posted it separately here. Anyway I hope you enjoy my post n_n!
P.S. I have ranked my top 10 favorite items in each wardrobe for your amusement

both of them so I have no regrets, haha.
Angelic Pretty: Tiara Rose

items perfectly too.
