Ohh I so hope one day I'll eventually be able to afford tracking down the dresses my teen self dreamed of too. I don't have the funds for Lolita things right now so I've been trying to admire the details and things I love about the dresses I already have. My wardrobe is small and no "big brand" so far, sad poorfag here, but hopefully I can change that soon!

Ohhh this sounds super interesting, I'll have to look this book up later when I have the time.

While not Lolita, I occasionally visit the "Gothic Charm School" blog. There's some good stuff on there, even though a lot of it seems to be dominated by youngin's asking nooby questions. And of course, Lolita used to be more intertwined with the gothic scene than it is today, so I consider it kinda relevant.

Right now, I'm not doing anything overly lifestyle like that I wasn't doing before Lolita. Like my tea drinking or other artsy, romantic interests. I've been working on trying to rekindle my lolita spark a bit too, but I'm finding it difficult. Things are just different than they were back in the mid 2000's. Being an adult makes stuff harder. One thing I'd like to do is get some Lolita pajamas. All the nightgowns they sell at stores are so ugly I can't believe anyone buys them. Sleeping bloomers would be adorable too. I know bloomers are easy to make but I'm not good at sewing and I hate doing it. I made my own bloomers for wearing under my dresses and it was absolute torture.
