Classic Music and Swing Lolita Dress

For the meet up, I decided to make my own dress, and like any cosplay or outfit that I have ever made, I finished it right on time to iron it and put it on cause it was time to go! lol

I had lots of fun making it.  I made everything from the buttons to the hair accessory.  The inspiration for this dress was a Bodyline dress that I found last year (2011).


I'm not that fond of the bows, so I did not put any bows what so ever on it, but I see now that I should have since the dress looks very simple and it does look like it needs something.  I will be altering it and adding more to it in a future time.  For now, here are some of the pics of the dress and the hairpiece.




-Buttons were made on a silicone mold shaped like musical notes.  I used them also on the hair piece.-



- Completed the look with a pair of Dr. Marten Wingtip shoes and a pair of Secret Shop stockings. - 


- Hairpiece and necklace were also made by me. - 

First Lolita Meet Up 4/8/12

My original post went poof for some odd reason, but I will write it again! <3


On April 8, 2012 the group had their first lolita meet up.  We had a blast!!! Well, at least I did! XD


Great food, great outfits, great people... all the elements needed to have an awesome time!  One of the things that we were worried about the most was the place.  I have being in Isla de Cabras (where the meet up took place) and totally forgot how windy the place could be.  I picked that place, not only cause of the location, but because it is a cool area where I knew we were not going to burn up cause of the heat.  That day the weather was to our favor!!! The wind was nice, but not strong enough to get us naked and mess with our hair and the sun was strong, but the cool breeze kept us from melting.  It was amazing!


We were able to talk a little bit more of the plans and projects we have for the group and what was to be expected for the rest of the year.  We had people come to us, asking us what was the deal with us, and even a guy asked us if we were from a religious group! O.O lol  I had to explain to them what was our group about and they seem interested and were very respectful.  The only trouble makers were these two female clowns that were near us on a birthday party o.O I thought they were just jealous cause they would walk back and forth in front of our gazebo looking and giving us the stink eye.  It was hilarious!!! 


I believe that this will be only the start of something awesome.  More people will fill comfortable to go out, in their favorite japanese styles, and rock the world.
