[diy] Otome astrology blouse

 Finally finished this blouse after 2 years! I started on this otome peter pan collar blouse using this cool quilting cotton from Joann's but gave up halfway because the fabric was too stiff/scratchy. Then I decided to finish it 2 years later for an easy win. Still not sure if it's wearable, but I got some practice into making blouses and decided that was good enough. Check out more in my blog post below!

[DIY] satin Juliette et Justine classic lolita handmade dress

 Now for the actual entry for the #literally20dollarlolita challenge on Tumblr, working on my stash of fabrics that I've hoarded for years. I've always wanted a dress from Juliette et Justine but my waist measurement is too big and most of the dresses that pop up on Lacemarket don't have shirring, also expensive and not the design I want. Here I'm replicating the typical classical painting dress with this beautiful satin print fabric of butterflies and roses that really have no other use and I probably wouldn't wear any other way. Check the full construction blog entry of the dress (plus hairbow) at my domain!

[diy] Barbie skirt revamp of a refurbish?

 Continuing from my previous post several months ago about the Barbie skirt for the Barbie lookbook, here is a post about how I can possibly do this skirt justice. So far, no good ideas, but if you guys have any, let me know, please!

[coord] Qi lolita/closet cosplay for Genshin Impact event

 Just wanted to update on this blog my first coord of 2024, qi-lolita that is also closet cosplay! I realized that I didn't put specific brand or fashion topics as tags on my main site and I haven't decided yet if I should, since that would create a massive tag cloud that probably won't be utilized by most visitors of my domain. So I do have to crosspost to blogger here, oh well. This is the beautiful Kaleidoscope of Fortune Deer high waist JSK by Meta of which the purple/black colorway is the most stunning. Technically this dress is also wa-lolita, but since I bought the twin bun haircovers, I consider it qi-lolita by intention lol.
