✿ Ballet Fashion ✿

Ballet is not only a great sport to keep you fit, it also makes a great motive for girly fashion styles.

I think I have to plan a ballet Lolita coord for the future!

What do you think about ballet motives in fashion? Yay or Nay? 

Collar ~!

If there is one thing my mum should really brag about then it is here knitting and crocheting skills! She made this adorable collars for me ~♥

One in brown x ivory and one in white ∩(︶▽︶)∩

I especially love the flower detail at the back of this collar. 

It will look super cute when I wear my hair in an up-do (◡‿◡✿) 

What do you think? Aren't they amazing? (´･ω･`)

Off to Helsinki ~♥

Tomorrow I'm finally off to Helsinki, for Helsinki Lolita Convention, a Tea Party and sightseeing. I'm already filled with anticipation :D
Here are pictures of my planned outfits. I changed my ideas a bit:

Instead of Innocent World I decided to wear Angelic Pretty to the Convention. I have never worn this dress to a big event, so it deserves some attention. I most likely won't wear the beret though as I want to style my hair in a braid crown.

The Tea Party coord is now in darker colours than planned at the beginning. Atelier Pierrot is one of the special guests and this coord is nearest I could come to their style with my super sweet wardrobe. One week before it was also announced that the theme for the Tea Party is 'Princes and Princesses' so I'm wearing a crown instead of the previously planned bonnet.

I decided to not wear wigs this time. The last few times I wore one it made my outfit worse than better because they keep slipping from my forehead. This time I want to enjoy the events without constantly pulling my wig forth. I believe that will be more comfortable for me ;)

See you next time when I report about my Helsinki adventures :D

Minori/Shironuri appreciation post ~♥

If you haven't lived in a cave the last year you surely heard of it, the infamous Shironuri style. A style seen on Japanese streets that is characterized by a white painted face. Since Tokyofashion did an interview with Shironuri artist Minori on their youtube-channel it also became popular outside of Japan.

Today, Tokyofashion posted another video featuring Minori, and while I haven't been too interested in the style lately, this video made me fall in love with Shironuri again right away. ♥

Minori is just so talented!

I did Shironuri make-up myself once, it was really a pain in the neck -.- High quality products are surely a must to achieve the look!

Minori isn't the only Shironuri artist but outside of Japan she is known best. 

There are actually no rules to Shironuri fashion beside that your face has to be white. So you can pair the fashion with any clothes you might like.

If you want to give Shironuri a try and want to do a similar style to Minori's, use long, layered garments made of light fabrics in light colours. 

Here are a few items I recommend for this style.
