Lolita Wardobe Post 2018!

So, Looks like I sold A LOT from last year's post...but...somehow I have more this year ;D
Well, I feel like the types of items I have changed as well ;)

Anyways, i'll try to organize this, but looks like I was all over the place with my purchases ^^

First, Ops:
I was never a big fan of OPs, but lately i've been finding them much more comfortable and way easier to coordinate outfits for (don't need a blouse) ^^
I also acquired some casual ones for every day wear. 

AATP Hymn OP
 My Ultimate wishlist dress that I magically fit & will keep forever! 
Last year at Kawaii Kon, I got another wonderful memory with this dress when I wore it & won best coordinate at the tea party with guests from BTSSB/AATP ^_^

 BTSSB x CCS collab dress
I NEEDED this dress sooooo badly when it was announced that I immediately found an SS & put in my reserve ^_^
This is my favorite brand doing a collab for my Favorite anime series, so even though i've been off & on with pink pieces, I had to get it XD 

 IW Sugar Cake in pink
Yups! Another pink...I just need to admit to myself that pink matches me ;)
 IW Aileen Onepiece: My namesake dress ^^ 
I love the blue colorway, but I wouldn't mind getting the pink one day ^^
 IW Teddy Bear stamp in green
 Commission/Bday gift handmade by my friend! I love it a lot ^_^

 Atelier Pierrot with detachable bib ^^
 The Phantom and the Maiden End of December in red

 AATP Tricky Nightmare in black
h.Naoto Honey 

And here are the casual pieces:
 Physical drop tshirt dress: I just really loved the color & print ^_^
 ETC dress #1: I've already worn this on weekends & at work, super comfy!
 Off brand, but totally wearable for Lolita & as a casual piece ^^
ETC dress #2: also wore this to work ^^

Next, JSKs: Looks like I've also increased my amount of these ;)
h.Naoto Frill JSK + matching bolero and BPN asymmetrical hem top under 
I just leave the set like this ^^
 Taobao brand jsk: Couldn't resist bears & tea (although I have another theme like this further down)
Axes Femme top
 Royal Princes Alice Okitsune Sama in black: I took a chance on this piece & it's one of my faves now! I'm even getting more matching items for it XD
Kawaiiholic...uhh...I don't know the english translation for it
絶対的可愛百鬼夜行ジャンパースカート & I couldn't resist & got the matching hair bun covers ^^
shown with off brand lace blouse
 
AATP Alice's Car Chase: Another Kon memory is wearing the Op version of this print & falling in love with it ^^ But...I think I match this style more XD
Shown with Atelier Pierrot blouse
 I haven't bought from bodyline in a while, but this print was so cute & I ended up twinning with a friend who got the blue colorway ^^
 Ista Mori: I actually haven't tried this on yet, but I LOVE IT so much ^_^
Lief Regimental Instruments in Teal 
shown with atelier pierrot bib and off brand blouse
 So, Naturally, I got the Teddy Tea Set Regimental in green (my 2nd jsk with bears & tea ^^)
Still on my mannequin, Atelier Pierrot Limitless(i think?) strapless jsk in green
and I added a bunch of random things on it ;)
 Taobao JSK & off brand blouse
h.Naoto Honey lavender jsk
My one attempt at making a jsk ^^
It may look weird, but with a nice blouse & petti, it looks decent ;)
Milk sunflower dress: Another otome-ish casual piece ^^

Ok, onto skirts:
 BTSSB Mon Petit chou chou in green
I've worn this a lot & it's super comfortable & I still have more ideas for it ^^
JetJ Lapin et camee in pink: I now have the matching headdress and one day I'd like another JetJ piece ^^
AATP Sugar Plum Fairy princess: I Just got this skirt in my LP and i LOVE IT!! 
The fit is nice and the fact that it's Nutcracker themed just makes me love it more ^_^
I usually don't buy replicas, but this one was really cheap & the brand version is still pricey, so I just wanted to have something Cinderella themed ^^
 Bodyline skirt that I've worn many times and it's great for every day wear ^^
My latest fave brand: Gouk
I only drooled over the pieces when they came to Kon this year, but I managed to buy this skirt online shortly after for fandom reasons ;)
Meta Candy shower in blue
I LOVE this piece sooo much! It's colorful & the details are so cute ^_^
shown with an indie brand blouse...that I accidentally have 2 of ;)
 off brand skirt, but totally can be loliable: It was a gift from a friend & I love it ^^
 Putumayo striped vest & skirt set: I've worn the set together & also separately and even to work ^^
h.Naoto Frill Library Bears(?) print??
When the brand came to our kon 2 years ago, I said if I saw the bear & book print, i'd buy it...and so I did...and then a friend found the matching top, so I got that too...& also the bonnet(will be shown on part 2: shoes, bags, accessories)
 The Phantom and the Maiden underskirt in white (I won this in a giveaway and it's great for adding nice length to things ^^)
BPN skirt: I actually use this a lot to act as a petti when it's too hot or uncomfortable to wear an actual petti...I need a white version now ;)

Pants: I only have 2 now, but maybe that's ok ^^
AATP Prince Rabbit's Corset Pants
I have issues with fitting kodona pants, but these fit & are pretty comfortable ^^
And Mint Neko pants I bought in CC in Harajuku! They're super comfortable & I can wear them to work ^^

Next is outerwear/coverups/cardis: 
 
 h.Naoto Honey coverup: came as part of a set with my Frill JSK and I've worn it a lot XD
Putumayo x Kirimi chan collab cardi: I HAD to get it and when I wore it, I ended up twinning with Putumayo's designer who wore the gray colorway XD 
AATP jacket: The fit of this jacket is perfect on me & can be used for boy style and also with dresses ^^ 
IW x Rozen Maiden Kanaria bolero: Another collab piece, I have problems XD 
My real problem is with these vest/waist coat pieces ^^ 
h.Steam on in burgundy
A Hot Topic x Outlander one in olive green
And I just got a Hot Topic x Harry Potter one in forest green ^^

Last but not least: Tops! 
i'm happy I have acquired so many since i'm always using the same blouses over & over & I have more cutsews which are great for really hot & humid days XD
 Bodyline
 Taobao
Meta 
 BTSSB: I love this blouse...but I keep selling the dresses that match it, hahaha XD
Brown off brand tops...just in case ;)
Axes Femme top that is soooo amazingly comfortable & perfect for Lolita with flared lace sleeves! 
I didn't know where to put this since it's a tunic like piece, but another Gouk piece ^^
 My first Qutie Frash piece and it's so detailed & lightweight I can wear it even in warmer weather ^^
 h.Naoto x d.Gray Man collab: Allen Walker shirt ^_^
It's soft, comfy & the asymmetrical hem is perfect ^^
Mint Neko x Megamasso collab tshirt: Ryohei (bass player)

& now a sea of cutsews!

 AP
 AATP x Yoh collab in white
 and then the black ;)
BTSSB x Nana Kitade collab with a Putumayo x Show by Rock piece (i think ^^ )

Alright! That's it for main pieces! 
It looks like I have a bit more than last year, but I think I finally know what colors & styles are good for me and I've Really embraced 2nd hand items and how many places I can search for them ^_^

I think i left out some items, but you can see it on my last year's post...which is right before this one since i haven't been blogging much, heh ;P
 

Next time will be Bags, Shoes & Accessories ^^
