Glasses with lolita?

On post number two of my posting-spree, I'm going to talk about glasses in Lolita. How do they work? How can I make a pair of glasses fit into a loli coord?
I'm going to my next eye appointment in a few days, and I was wondering, what kind of lenses would work with my Lolita lifestyle? So I decided to make this post. We were at the eye doctor the other day (for my mom.) and I saw a bunch of gorgeous lenses for sweet Lolitas except they were all for children. Like I expected. So what am I supposed to do with boring, un-playful lenses?
I've heard of this program that is available at our lensecrafters in town. You can take in any type of lens (as long as it's not too crazy or offensive) and get them in your prescription. I thought that was a pretty cool idea, and so after we came from my mom's appointment, we went on a shopping spree to Claire's to see what they had. I came across a gorgeous pair of pink and orange glasses. (pics later, once I get them.) Perfect for a Sweet Lolita like me! I didn't get to get them though, I had spent too much already, but I am going too once my appointment comes around.
So what is the point of this post, and that wall of text at the beginning? I just wanted to give you some suggestions for all of you glasses wearing Lolitas out there.

For the Sweet Lolita: These glasses from glassesshop.com are a really cute pair. A nice neutral color that can work with any outfit. If your looking for something to match your Angelic Pretty, try these in pink.

For the Gothic Lolita: Try these glasses in black. The design on them are so pretty, I think they would work great for an elegant Gothic Lolita.

For the Classic Lolita: These pair are absolutely gorgeous. The flowers on the side would work great with a classic coord.

You really don't have to choose a type of lens for whatever subculture your involved in. These were just a suggestion for those people who really want to be lifestyle lolis, or who just want a nice pair of glasses. Until next time!

Life update

Sorry I haven't updated in a while, but I have been pretty busy. I'm now on spring break and I think I'm going to challenge myself to write something everyday whether it be a craft post, a Lolita find or just a random exciting thing that happened. Today I'll just do a short post on what wore to see Alice in wonderland!

Daily Lolita has been filled with posts since Friday about people who have gone to see Alice in Wonderland. Unfortunately there was no meet up in my town to go see it, so I just had to bring a friend. This is what I wore:

JSK: Bodyline

Cardigan: off brand

Accessories: Claire's, offbrand

Sweet Lolita button: Anime Convention

And that was pretty much it! I had loads of fun seeing some friends of mine, and it was a really good movie, you should check it out. Until next time, bye!

Ice skating fun with friends!

On Sunday I went ice skating with friends, just to end the old year and start a new one, and this is what I wore!





It's just a small snapshot of what I wore, and It's really cute! I think I might wear it to the next meet-up I go to. I'll give you a face shot too! :3




Well, I guess that's it for now! See you next year!

A few days ago...

A few days ago, my school had a Christmas party. I wanted to post some pictures! Sorry for the lack of poof, but my teacher told me to get rid of the petticoat. D<

A full body picture (or the closest thing to it.)
A face shot. Sorry for the messy hair!

Have a happy holiday!

The daily lolita: Tone it down!

I have this issue sometimes. With a kind of strict mother at home, telling me why she thinks Lolita is "not me" and making a daily statement of "Those poofy skirts make you look fat." Then we might get into a mild argument about the reason why I wear Lolita. The only reason why I still can wear Lolita, and buy Lolita clothes, is because my mother dresses me once every week. I understand, I let her have her moment. But how can I add a Lolita to my daily outfit? Maybe a few tips from me might help.

Accessorize!

I love to wear rings and jewelry when I'm not wearing Lolita, but I can add a touch of sweet when I wear bow rings! I make them myself out of old fabric that I have laying around my room, and I try to make a lot of them! Maybe one day I could put up a craft post and tell you how to make some?

Tone down the headgear a bit, too. I try to put bows in my hair that are very small, and that you could find in a dollar store for at least under two dollars. (Sometimes I wear a mini tiara when I wear hime style clothing, I got that from the dollar store, also.)

Clothing

The great thing about Lolita is that you can wear it casually. When I wear casual Lolita, I don't wear the completely overly-poofed petti that I have, I wear the old Hot topic reject one I got, when I first started out. It adds a pretty good amount of poof to your skirt, and gives a kind of A-line shape to the skirt.

The thing that usually is a good thing for casual Lolita is the cutsew (or cutsaw in some places) It is the answer to a Lolita's Tee shirt. It has lace an all the trimmings and stuff, while still being a comfortable, modest tee shirt.

Just one more thing: The shoes and socks. For shoes I usually wear a pair of black (or white, if you can find them.) Mary Jane's. They work well with any outfit, and plus they are more toned down then Angelic pretty's deco'd shoes. The socks issue isn't really a problem. I usually wear a pair of plain socks with a lace topping. (Once I found these Japanese erasers shaped like sweets, and I hot glued them to my sock toppers! They were so cute!)

I hope these tips helped you out with something, maybe give you new ideas for your daily wear.

I hope you enjoyed my first post!
