me and my brother

Tada!  It's the sequel to Friend Fashion!  This time I drew one of my brothers, who was totally stylin' after a shopping trip to the mall (we went to Express).  (I should probably point out his socks weren't meant to match the rest of the outfit, although I guess they are still on the same end of the colour wheel).  Again, you'll have to take my word for it that his shirt is an amazing colour, because digital just doesn't get it.  For my part, I decided to try something new with my Baby the Stars Shine Bright ensemble—there are only so many ways you can wear the pink bunny dress, so I decided to wear just the other dress.  But it's empire-waisted and looks kinda plain and nightgown-ish on its own, so I had to get creative.  Then I thought, "It's almost the new year!  What if I did something like an obi-sash?" (because apparently New Year=kimono.  I read too much manga...)  But my scarves weren't quite long enough for a proper obi tie, so I just made a nice bow.  And then I took the dress' wasit-ties and brought them around to look like the... other tie that goes over the obi.  I'm forgetting my terms.  Anyway, I was happy with it.

More semi-relevant rambling... (is this turning into a livejournal post or what?)

lolita dreaming sweet












I went to a Halloween-Reformation Day party at my friends' place , so I had to dress up!  Of course!!  And continuing with cute-boot week, I wore my fuzzy pink boots again.  They nearly matched the ones the bunnies on the dress were wearing!  Too perfect.

This is the second time I've worn this dress since buying it in San Francisco in August. Seeing a real Baby The Stars Shine Bright store was so amazing and dreamy~ I wanted to wear everything! I actually would've been sensible and gone home empty handed, but my family convinced me I really really wanted a dress, so I ended up getting a lucky pack with this outfit inside (the dress, under-dress and bonnet). Now I find myself wanting more opportunities to wear it, and dreaming of expanding my collection beyond just this one dress. Ahh, someday...!
