We had a small picnic meetup at Hubbard Park in Shorewood, which is where I currently live~ I ended up being 45 minutes late since I made spring rolls last minute, but a ton of people were late too... my friend was like 90 minutes late since she picked up another lolita and got stuck in traffic from the air show. I only ended up taking mostly coordinate photos. Here they are!
Group photo! A few people carpooled from Appleton area (about 2 hour drive)

Hello again~ This past few weeks have been busy with meetups. On Sunday, I carpooled with Alli and Junné from Milwaukee to Illinois. The theme of the meetup was Old School Lolita! I had fun since I am really into headdresses nowadays. It took place at High Tea with Gerri in Long Grove, IL!
This meetup was nostalgic for me since I learned about lolita in 2009? That was when I got my first Gothic Lolita Bible from a random magazine store. The tea was actually pretty expensive for the amount of food that I got, but we definitely enjoyed the atmosphere and decorations!
Happy New Year! One of my goals for 2015 is to blog more and participate in Lolita Blog Carnival, a network of lolita fashion bloggers who focus on a topic each week! I will also post my wardrobe eventually (on Pinterest right now). Now onto this week's topic...
My friends from Milwaukee Lolita Society (and Chigothloli by extension) are my easiest and closest inspiration! They range from sweet to classic to gothic. None of us are well known, but hopefully you get some inspiration too~
Sara - her makeup is always on point, classy as fuck, and great classic outfits!
Jeanette - she's the mod of my comm, always wearing inspirational outfits & everyday lolita!
Also, a prime example of the evolution of a lolita (bodyline to burando!)
Beck (weeaboo-kei)- she wears sweet lolita and otome, friends with my taobao addiction
Classic Lolitas
Kavya (xylia-x) - Australian lolita who wears Innocent World like no other! She is always elegant in her coordinates and can make anything look perfect
Xiaoyu (victorianme) - Chinese lolita who goes to college in NYC~ She does photoshoots from time to time to make OTT classic a thing!
Karine (mysubarashiilolidays/blog) - a Brazilian lolita who makes anything look good. Play the "Is that Bodyline?" game with her outfit photos and you'll be surprised!
Gothic Lolitas
Marie Tuonetar (siriusc/blog)- a French lolita with a gothic flair~ I love the way she takes photos & edits them to look like vintage photographs.
Tamie (tamie-love) - she is like the onee-san that every lolita wants~ She wears hime and ero lolita in the best of ways and her outfits are always on point.
I hope you found some new favorite lolitas to follow! If you want to see others' inspo, see the links below!
