Latest (Lolita) obsessions, goodwill, etc...

My latest "Lolita" obsession is: Cinderella ^^
It was actually my very first disney movie...& i was so obsessed w/ Roger's & Hammersteins version, i wrote down practically the whole movie & i would memorize it XD

Needless to say, I saw the Cinderella Lolita prints, but I was into different things at the time, i didn't think about it...until...i got the most awesomeness necklace ;)

It was @ Forever21 & I just couldn't resist...I also got a Teddy Bear necklace, but that's an ongoing obsession ;)  

So, after I got the necklace, I became determined to find a Lolita print that would match...& my absolute fave is the Baby Cinderella Jewelry print in Cream x Sax...I think the necklace would compliment it very nicely...but, i'll have to save up a lot for it...XP

My other choice was the AP Cinderella print, but I only liked the skirt in that...& i've never gotten anything AP before :/

Haha, but that'll be an ongoing quest until i save up enough money for it XD
In the meantime, I'm happy just going to Goodwill...I find so many awesome things ^^

 These were from my latest Thrifting day ^_^  The vintage dress fits absolutely perfectly ^^ & the winnie the pooh items are for a future fairy kei outfit XD  Then, I found the cutest stuffed sheep & light blue bear.  The silver thing is an awesome belt...&, the most surprising find...the CD...it's Orange Range!! Only a single, but it's the * one, so it's all good ;D

I even found a couple of presents for friends (so those aren't in the pic...just in case...)  

But, the main reason for going to goodwill was to find items for an upcoming AIW steampunk tea party...& I did ^^  I found a bag, white skirt which i fashioned into an "apron" & a belt to bring it all together ;)  
& here's the result:


& now i'm really into makeup, so...i experimented a little today...mainly to try out my gold liquid liner XD

 it's a little messy, & i had to take it w/out flash otherwise u can't see the gold, but...i still had fun doing it & i was inspired by the butterfly clip in my hair XD

*side note* I'm SO SUPER DUPER behind on the Tokyo Fashion Express episodes, so I have no idea when i'll get around to those...sigh...it's hard now b/c i started working on Mondays again :/  But, I will try my best to update this more often...especially if i get into a new fashion ;D

Latest purchases & playing dress-up ^_^

So, BEFORE I found out about my work situation...i did some shopping ;D
First up, from Ebay...another GLB vol 40 XD  I couldn't resist...someone did a review of it on their blog & I HAD to have it ^^ 

 2nd, a Wig from the egl comm sales...I always wanted a long-curly brown one & this one actually matches me (according to my mom ;D )
 Then, on the side, i did a group order of contacts & got a new blue pair...since my other ones were giving me problems :/  & she gave me one of the contact holders too...sooo cute ^^
 I was planning to use these contacts for my Alice...can u tell?
i can't really tell they're blue, but my mom can, so that's good enough for me XD

But, now i gotta save, save save...sigh...so less shopping from me...guess i should sew more or something XP
