2015 was the year where I went on a Lolita Vision Quest (unfortunately, 80's Madonna wasn't apart of it).
I don't have a method to my frilly madness and lately my direction is to buy what I like.
Basically, I have a girl crush on Angelic Pretty's Cameo Window, I love wine colored anything, and I'm pretty sure there's a Gothic lolita hiding somewhere.
I sold a lot of items that didn't suit me, impulse buys, and were just negative energy in my wardrobe.
Thus, I have a small "rebuilding" wardrobe with a few new dresses and items in the mail.
Jumperskirts
Innocent World Tiered Doll Jsk win Wine and IW Palace Rose jsk in Navy
My babies...Angelic Pretty Cameo Window in Wine and Pink
Merry Bunny in Ivory, super cute and very well done print, but it's currently for sale. It may be too sweet for me.
Underskirts / Skirts
Little Dipper Underskirt (Taobao) and Victorian Maiden Star skirts, one is knee length, the other is tea length. They're chiffon and so comfortable.
