Some pictures of my new boy Noah! I like him so much, he's such a cute doll. ^^
Even he doesn't like the ideas I had in my mind for him.. Pfff, I won't let him win xD
Maybe I give him a style change after this, or not.. I'm not sure...
Anyway, what do you think about him? ^_____^

aghh why makes my camera such a crappy pictures?
I think there's something wrong with it... Makes me want a new camera so badly >.<

About the new blog layout..
For me,it's time to start over again, going to a new school..
So I was thinking: Why won't I change my blog? I like the clouds, they make me
feel less stressed out...I hope you like it! 

I'm very slow these days, it has been such a busy week for me...
A new school in an other city and a new class, everthing is new for me, that's fun
but also a little bit scary!
I'm a little bit tired because of that, so much new impressions and to make it worse:
I also catched a cold -_-

This morning I saw that I received a Valentine! I couldn't believe it! A Valentine for me?!
I'm so happy ^___^  Thank you so much :D
I'm going to do a happy dance now hahahhaa ^________________________^

I tried to comment on lj loli_valentines, something went wrong so I post something anonymous...
I  don't get livejournal xD

I'm going to tell you something about my blog titles, I don't know if you already know it :
Most of my blog titles are songs I like or parts of songs, feel free to search for them, most of them are fun to
listen to. ^^  What are you waiting for is a song from Gwen Stefani, when I was younger I always listen to her song, isn't that weird?! In most of her songs she sings about harajuku...

Now the real post.. What are you waiting for?! So, it means I'm waiting for something...
Most of the time waiting for something isn't always right, you have to do something if you want it...'
Sometimes you have to wait and that's why I'm going to write this post..

It's losely connected to the post: Is it ever enough?!
Now I can answer it, I bought a new lolita jsk, the one I wanted to have the whole summer..
I was very happy with it, and I'm still very happy with but it isn't enough! I still want more...
So what to do? Buying something new? I already have 5 lolita dresses and I don't wear them
very often... It's not like I need new stuff!

It isn't only that: when I go shopping I'm always searching for loliable finds or clothes with nice
lace. It's very difficult to find those things and it's also very annoying because I want 'normal' clothes..
I can't even remember the last time when I bought clothes that weren't lolita or lolita like...
And it's not that I wear lolita more now...
I can't wear lolita more often even if I wanted it, I can't work in lolita because my clothes are going
to be dirty and I want to look a little bit professional and 'normal' when I go to my school.
It hasn't any addition if I buy more clothes, I only can wear lolita once a week.

That's why I want to stop buying lolita for a while, I won't stop wearing it, I love it so much to wear
lolita and I so happy to meet all those amazing people through lolita. it's a important part in my life. ^^
I'm going to buy a wig for the EFF and that's the last thing for a while, at least I hope so...
At the moment there are more important things in my life than lolita clothes: my study, doing fun things with my friends and my new project: make my bedroom and lounge (sitting room) awesome!

Don't be sad, I'm still going to annoy you with outfit posts, meet-up posts and of course posts about my project: I have some very cool ideas.
I don't want to let the lolita clothes take over my life, I like those clothes but it's enough for a while..
I want to go shopping for normal clothes, I don't want to feel sorry because I spent too much money on things like normal clothes or when I go out with friends.

When I can do all of this, when I don't think about buying lolita clothes all the time or what I want to buy next then I can buy something again...
OMG that's nearly impossible?! It's not a problem, it's a challenge!
My challenge is waiting for the right moment to buy lolita clothes again, when I complete this challenge I can buy I pirate lolita outfit for myself. ( Or something pretty from MMM, if it's possible)
* Yeah, I know this is what's going wrong*

What about you? Is this also happening to you? Or have you no idea what I'm talking about?
And what do you do about it?
Please tell me, I would like to know it!

I saw this on the egl community:

Oh Mana with red hair, very pretty! :D
Still I'm not sure about this new print, I definitely want to see more of it...
* I can't say I want it, I bought a dress recently! Mana why are you doing this to me?!*
I think it's a beautiful print, only my bank account doesn't think the same hahaha >.<

It's very refreashing for MMM, so much colours in one dress? That's rare!
I can't wait to see more pictures!

What do you think of this new release?

I'm very late! It's a week ago now...
Most of the time I blog immedately about meet-ups, only this time I was a little bit late
and I kind of forgot it.. -_-''

Oh, I need to dye my hair again  >.< I'm not sure about the color, I think it's going to be the same...

The meet-up was so much fun! It's always nice to see my lolita friends again. ^^
We went to the Dom 'garden' to make some pictures, it's such a beautiful church and it
has a lovely garden. It's always nice to be there and it's a very suitable place to make pictures.
After that we went to a lunch room to eat something. When we finished our lunch, our group fell apart some lolitas wanted to go to a cafe, others went home. I went shopping with some girls, we went to a fabric store and to the episode. ^^  After that I went home because I didn't feel well... ( And my money was goneeee, again T_T Why is my wallet always empty?)
Thanks everyone, for the great day!

I want to say welcome to my new follower, thank you for following me!
I hope you will like my blog...

Yay, now I can talk about how I think about lolita...
I wasn't sure how to do that..
I thought a meme would be fun. ^^

How long do you know about lolita?
I know about lolita for 5 years, I saw a article in a dutch newspaper about the book gothic &lolita.
I was very curious about it and went searching for the book.
After a while I found this book, but I was a litte bit shocked, I loved how the lolita girls looked like
but the ones who wore cyber, gothic or other styles I didn't like. I even thought they were scary xD
Two years later I began to listen to An Cafe and other Japanese bands, some of these guys wore lolita
clothes and I wanted to know were you could buy those beautiful clothes. That's how I started to wear lolita. ^^


Why did you wanted to wear lolita clothes?
I wanted to wear lolita clothes because those clothes were so beautiful and very girly.
For me it was also a sort of escape from the reality, it wasn't a nice time for me whe I started with wearing lolita.

How was it like, to start wearing lolita?
It was very difficult, I was very young when I started to wear lolita. I was around 14 years old, I hadn't
any knowledge about lolita and about the internet. So my first lolita purchase, was a big failure. I bought a pair of shoes only the girl from whom I bought them never sent them to me. After that my mom was very angry about it and so doesn't wanted me to buy anything from the internet.. That's a horrible start for a beginner lolita! My mom was very understanding that I wanted to wear lolita for real, so she and my aunt made dresses for me. That's so nice of them :D
After some time, and lots of saving up later xD I could buy my first real outfit. My meta candy house dress. And I joined a lolita forum, I began to know so much more about lolita. ^^

What is you favorite lolita style?
Oh why do I always ask myself difficult things, I think my favorite style is Gothic Lolita.
I love it how a cute look goes well with darker clothes. ^^ It's not too cute and it's not too
goth, too!

Which lolita style wouldn't you wear?
Bittersweet, I love it how it looks like on other people, but I don't think I could ever wear it
the right way...

What style do you want to try:
Pirate lolita! I love pirate lolita, it's not worn very often so it's more special.
It's sturdy but still very girly, I love to try it once. Not now because I can't afford
new clothes..

Wearing something like this would be awesome, don't you think?

Tell me about your first meet-up:
My first meet-up was 3 years ago, I think * I'm not sure*
It was a meet-up in Utrecht and I hadn't visited Utrecht before then..
I was very nervous, I was so nervous that I was ill the day before hahahaha...
Luckely my best friend was with me, at least there was someone who I already knew.
The meet was so much fun! And the high tea was delicious. ^^

What does lolita mean to you?
For me lolita is more then about clothes, it's about feeling unique, being yourself
and about friendship. Girls, you are amazing, thank you for being so nice. <3 *that's for all of you*
I met people,who I would never known without lolita..
Lolita makes me happy!

Are there other lolitas who inspire you?
Yes, there are lolitas who inspire me:

                                                                          Iira:


                                                            Niesje7002 (Denise):


                                                                Monologue du Chi:


                                                                       Herajika:
Do you want to say something else?
If you want to try lolita fashion, just try it! It's so much fun!
After 5 years I still love lolita fashion so much, it has a place in my heart. <3

Thank you for reading this. ^^
I hope I won't annoy you, with my many posts xD

My new dress from Moi meme moitie arrived today. Yay, happy dance  ^_____________^
It's such a beautiful dress and I love the little details in the print and the little cross on the front
of the dress. ^^
The costums opened the package, I don't want to know what they did with it, maybe they liked
it so much.... that they took the real dress and made a replica for me -_-''
Or they wanted to be a lolita.. Maybe they were giving a lolita tea party in the costums hahahaha
I have too much imagination!

Details:

Of course I wanted to wear the jsk :

Blouse: Moi-même-Moitié
Jsk: Moi-même-Moitié
Hat: Vintage *Thank you so much Josine, for letting me buy the hat, I hope you will find even a more beautiful one!*
Stockings: from the waterlooplein, Amsterdam
Shoes: Bodyline * please Mana forgive me! I haven't found Moitié shoes xD*

The next post will be about the old school meetup, I'm still waiting for the group picture...

Best wishes,
Anne

You can only wear one style:
That’s not true, you can wear every Lolita style you want to wear. For example I wear gothic Lolita and sweet Lolita.

There aren’t many lolitas:That’s true, Lolita isn’t that popular as gothic (for example). Here in Holland are 100 of them and maybe a another 100 who have Lolita clothes but don’t wear it very often.  The number is still increasing.

Thank you for reading this! I hope to see you next time. ^^

Best wishes,

Anne

About my  English: English isn’t my first language, I will make mistakes, I hope everyone understands it! I’m trying to do my best!

Oh and about the text under this.. just ignore it, I can't remove it -_-''

Lolita is very expensive, probably I can’t pay so much money for clothes:
True/False, Lolita can be very expensive but it’s  all about what you want! If you want to fill your whole Lolita clothes with new Angelic Pretty (or MMM xD) clothes then you need  lots of money. There is also a possibility to buy offbrand clothes, second hand brand clothes or replicas/bodyline. It’s all about what you want and how much money you want to spend!You aren’t a Lolita when you don’t wear all brand outfits
False, some offbrand outfits look even better than some brand outfits. A brand outfit isn’t always Lolita, and using offbrand things in your outfit make you more creative.

I was a little bit scared at first...

 I hear stories from people often, they want to wear the Lolita style but for some reason they can’t. 

Because they are embarrassed about it: What would my friends think? What would my family think?

Or people think they are not suitable to wear Lolita, that the style only exist for small, cute Asian girls. Or that it’s too expensive (It’s very expensive that’s true! my money is always gone, guess why? :P) Or that someone likes the style but thinks that lolitas aren’t nice and that it’s all about rules. Oh I hate the last one, but sadly I’ve heard about it :(

I want to make this very clear: everyone can wear Lolita, it’s not only for small Asian girls,  it’s for everyone!  As long as you love the style and have respect for others it will be okay. And in the beginning it doesn’t matter if you make mistakes, every Lolita made mistakes!! Just try again and do it better next time. Let me tell you a little secret: sometimes I’m still afraid that my clothes aren’t Lolita enough or that some colours won’t match with each other.

I want to help newbie Lolitas (beginning Lolitas) because it’s for some girls very difficult to start wearing Lolita. Something new is always a little bit scary! 

But there is (nearly) nothing to be afraid of, Lolitas won’t bite ^_~  (At least it never happen to me)

If you are nice to other people they will be nice too, remember  that! Being nice is very important as a Lolita but even so important for someone who doesn’t wear the style. Please remind that!

The first post will be about prejudices and misunderstandings, I’m going to tell which one are false and which ones are true.  <- how orginal!

The second post will be about: Starting wearing Lolita, I’m going to talk about choosing styles, confidence, meeting other people and about being a lifestyle Lolita.

The third post will be about: How I think about Lolita, my style icons and how it was like to start wearing Lolita. 

The fourth will be about:  how to not lose yourself, while you are wearing the style. That sounds a little bit weird , this could also be interesting for Lolita who wear the style longer..

For those who are interested: I have already written about parents & Lolita (the ‘bad kids’ post), about low budget Lolita and about other people (Don’t laugh at me, don’t look away)

Oh and if you have questions about Lolita just ask them, I try to answer them as good as I can and as soon as possible. Don’t be afraid to ask something, it’s better to ask something than keep wondering what the right answer is.

Best wishes, Anne
