This blog is full of cute things and lolita fashion.
This is also my personal blog so there may be the occasional out of place post.
My name is Stephanie, I am 24 years old, and I live in an old Victorian house with a crooked toilet and a lazy ghost. This is my blog.
Ever since this spring, I’ve thought about how I wanted to pick daisies and put them in a little vase in my window, when I got back home. I finally got the opportunity to! ^^

That ice cold water. It’s only one dollar. You rifle in your pockets for a single but all you can find is pamphlets for other cons. There are so many pamphlets.
The hallway behind registration is cold. It’s so cold. The frozen bodies of cosplayers litter the floor.
People are sleeping in the Starbucks line. How long have they been there? How long will they be there?
The dealer’s room is so big. You wander through the aisles hoping to see a landmark. You smell chicken tenders but you can’t find a stall. The eyes of the body pillows follow you.
Do you know that character, or have you just seen them on Tumblr? Have you seen them in your dreams? Do they haunt your nightmares?
That costume is so huge. How did it fit in the building? The cosplayer inside stares out. His eyes are fearful.
The artist’s alley is in a pocket dimension. You can get there by those stairs. No, those stairs. No, the other stairs.
You have to exit the building. They won’t let you leave through those doors. They won’t let you leave through any doors.
Thursday evening you try to connect to a network called BCC FREE WIFI. The tiny circle on your phone spins and spins but you never get a signal. You’ve been home for weeks and you still can’t get a connection.
Tonight at the palaceofprinces event Nightfall, we debuted a special showpiece, the Harper Ensemble!
This two-piece set was created using poly shantung, chiffon, and a beautiful tapestry-style stripe. The dragonscale smocking, crystal accents, and gold embroidery were all applied by hand over the course of roughly a month. The coordinating Nephelai collar and belt were made using leftover pieces from chokers that did not meet QC standards, but add just the right amount of sparkle on the runway!
This piece is definitely not your traditional lolita outfit, but we’re still quite taken with the final results, and hope that you are too!
“Three women were transformed into flowers which stood in a field. However, one of them was allowed to be in her own house at night. One time when day was approaching, and she would have to go back to her companions in the field and become a flower again, she said to her husband, “If you will come this morning and pick me, I shall be set free and stay with you from then on.” And that is what happened.
Now the question is, how did her husband recognize her, for the flowers were exactly alike, and without any difference?
Answer: While she was in her house during the night and not in the field, the dew did not fall on her as it did on the other two, and by this her husband recognized her.“
