Bodyline Dress Crush

The longer I look at this picture, the more I want it in every colorway (exept for the red, maybe. And the black. The strong colors somewhat overwhelm the print). My favourite color is the violett. I own a skirt in that color (handmade, the first I ever made), but no accessory and especially no shoes.
While writing this text I already changed my opinion, now I want the mint one most. Mint is my favourite color this season. I'm off, looking for matching shoes!

Perspective and yesterday's meet-up

The reason I didn't post lately is mostly that I didn't want to do things half-assedly. I didn't want to post just text without pictures (looks bad on the LinkWithin thing). I wanted to write more than three sentences. I wanted to write useful and informative and interesting stuff, not just the "why my life sucks / why I'm happy" things that always float around my head.
I'm a perfectionist.
I want to keep the Wishlist and the About Me thing updated (the Loli Level as well, but there isn't so much progress). I f I knew I didn't have the time for that, I wouldn't log in to Blogspot at all (I'm following other blogs through bloglovin, since one of my favourites is on Wordpress, and I want to have it all in one place).
Now somehow (I know how, but it's kinda hard and long-ish to explain), my view on blogging changed. This is a personal blog, not a style blog or a source of information. This is about me, my life, studies, boyfriend, style, loves and hates and fandoms, and therefore pretty random. I can't put pictures on every post (I have a strange need to write, but none to take pictures). I tried for some time, which resulted in a lot of glitter graphics.
Anyway, conclusion: This isn't a "for you" blog, it's a "for me"blog.

--------

Yesterday I was on a lolita meet-up in Düsseldorf. My boyfriend came along, but I guess he wasn't sooo happy. He had to behave all day.
We went to a wildlife park. It was all rainy and muddy, but we saw some cool animals, ok mostly deers and boars (They had babies. Around twelve, but I couldn't really count them, they were running all about. So cute~).
We were eight people in the beginning, although more said they wanted to come. Two of us left at the park to take pictures of a root (?), but one of them fell down and they just send us a text that they were going home to clean themselves. Us remaining six went back to the city in the afternoon, earlier than originally planned. My boyfriend, one of the hosts and me went to a Japanese (ramen) restaurant afterwards, the rest left us at the main station. I've never eaten the "good" kind of ramen before, and it was quite delicious.
Then we went for bubble tea and a Japanese supermarket for mochi (I just love that stuff, I've eaten it all by now). We met so many gyarus on our way! Two I knew over the internet (Maya and Sui) and one I know in real life. There must have been at least three circles around as far as I know. They all go to Düsseldorf for the Japanese shops and restaurants and the puri machine, I guess.
When we came home (my home, that is), there was a party going on below my window, so loud! My city's football club won the German championship, so I totally understand, but I was so exhausted from all the walking, I just wanted to sleep. My boyfriend drove us to his place, that's in a different town and really quiet, but I really need to buy earplugs. Partys happen often at the dorm.

side note: I just poured water all over my nail polishes. Stupid me, forgetting that the bottle I play with is open.

side note two: My Lolita level just changed from Victorian Maiden to Starry Celebrity, because of the pair of falls I bought on Friday and wore yesterday. I still don't really consider myself a good lolita, most of my points just come from knowing stuff, not the really social things.

Weekend

On Saturday, my best friend visited me. We had cocktails and she slept here.
This is what I wore:

Dress, Bag: Baby, the Stars Shine Bright (The dress is Playing Cards Regimental Stripes)
Shoes: An*Tai*Na
Bonnet: I think it was Harajuku maiden, but I'm not sure. It was a gift.

She wore a Little Bears Café Replica and bear ears that she crocheted herself. I really should have taken pictures of that, it was so cute ~
We discovered a nice little cocktail bar that serves what they call "Chinese tapas". It was really all different kinds of tapas and finger food, including some Chinese, and tasted really good but didn't cost too much. I guess we'll go there again.

On Sunday, we tried to have bubble tea. I knew of two shops here in Dortmund, Of which one is in the mall, therefore closed on Sunday, and the other one (of my favourite chain, BoboQ) just opened. On their website, it said that they would open at noon, but when we went there, we discovered that they wouldn't open until two hours later, and that was too late for us. So we wandered around for a bit, and saw two more bubble tea shops: one of them closed, one open. They didn't have much flavours to chose from, but it was really ok for once.

In the afternoon, I visited my family. We went to the opening of a water park/playground with my godchild (He's five). Naturally the "bigger children" had more fun, for example my boyfriend and my brother engaged in a balloon-sword fight, and we all had good times on a huge swing. It was pretty cold and also a bit wet, but lots of fun anyways.

Today, the new semester starts, so I'm off to my first physics lecture now.
Bye~!

Settled down

Now I feel like I really live here. I have internet, and got my tv to work (before, I had only one really boring channel). I also solved a storage problem I had in the beginning (no space for shoes, that's serious!).
At the moment I'm learning for a math exam retry, which will be on the 30th.
Here's a spring-like outfit that I wore today:

Blouse/ Top: Primark
Jeans: Miss Anna (Madonna)
Jacket: H&M
Bag/ Shoes: Deichmann

Something about the white top (You can't really see it in the pictures): This is actually a shapewear-body tight. I bought it mostly because the jeans is so low-cut that normal tops always tend to slip out, and because I will dance a white swan in our dance academy's martinée, and I'm gonna need a white tricot for that. Ballet tricots, especially white ones for adults, are quite expensive, and I didn't want to buy a new one only for one dance (for training, I wear black and red, the academy's colors).
I tried something new for make-up: eyeshadow all around the outer edge of the eye.

I love the brush. It's perfect for rather thin lines of eyeshadow.

I wanted to tell you about Paris, but there's really not so much to tell. The best stuff I don't want to share, but this: I bought the heart-shaped bag from Baby, the Stars Shine Bright:

Isn't it wonderful?

Plus I just ordered some stuff, but I'm going to tell you more when it's here. That's gonna be pretty ~

le Hiatus

Yes I've moved and yes, I've been to Paris.
I have no internet in my appartement yet, so I can't really write here (atm, I'm at my mothers house). Until I have internet again, and feel better (stupid flu. Stupid me travelling with the flu) and am finished studying for the exams that I failed, I probably won't write here. Or at least, not much. I'll see.

Only A Little Picspam

My birthday gifts!

A jewelry box, rosebuds for tea, a bonnet and a music box-thing from my best friend

 The bonnet was hers before. It didn't really fit her and I borrowed it sometimes. She wanted to give me another one, but she couldn't find one in time, so she gave me hers.

The last part of the "Elfen Lied" manga and the first season of BBCs "Sherlock", from my boyfriend

A teapot with warmer and mug with "special pigs" from my grandma

It says "I'm special!" all over. So cute! Normally my grandmas gifts don't meet my taste, but this one is perfect. I hoped for a neutral set, but this is even better.

A milk-boiling device and a box of gems from my aunt

The round white thing is for not burning milk if you don't have an aluminium pot. You just put it in there and the steam that rises in the milk while boiling makes it move so it stirs the milk on the bottom of the pot (Is that understandable?).

 

"Bambi"-DVD, an epic wall clock and "Hello Kitty" storage boxes from my mother

She originally gave me a "Ice Age 3"-DVD. While the movie sure is fun, I don't need a DVD of that so we traded it. I have to admit that I've never watched "Bambi".

Flowers in a stylish vase and dishtowels from my other grandparents

Salt and pepper shaker and timer from my brother

I also got some money. Most of it will come to Paris with me (and most likely not come back ^^ ), but first I bought these awesome shoes from Deichmann:

Short Post V

Last week, on the 22nd, was my birthday. Also, I had to write an exam (chemistry, which I horribly failed, I guess) so we had the "party" on saturday. And I had a "special day" with my boyfriend on thursday. We saw Hugo Cabret and had a fancy dinner afterwards. So good~
I will do a post about my gifts and some other stuff tomorrow, if I get to save my camera (the thing keeps making trouble, but I think I get the hang of it* slowly).

*I'm not sure if this phrase is correct. leo.org didn't help very much.
