Lolita Convention

We only went for a few hours, it was quite hot that day, but the stores were nice and I snapped up a few deals at the 2nd Hand stall :)

Group Photos
I thought I would share outfit shots of the other Lolitas :)

Of course there was a language barrier which made things alot more awkward, but they all look so great I had to take photos!

I didn't take many sorry, my shyness got to me :( I loved the polka dot dress!

This was my outfit, I wore a tshirt because of the heat, I think I'll make a detachable peter pan collar to lolify my shirts though. Marlena from Self Constructed Freak has inspired me to make them :p

How do you approach people for photos?

hm I think it's best to politely ask the pictures, I do not think a convention if you ask anyone bother to take pictures ^ ^

were very pretty with that dress, I really like ^ _ ^!

sorry for my english I hope I have understood haha x3

It's nice to see a group of people who speak different languages get together to share the same interests!

I would probs gesture to my camera with a smile, hopefully that wouldn't put them off haha :)

you look so adorable! you wore a tshirt because of the heat? isn't that opposite? haha was it to protect yourself from the sun? hehe I guess my idea is to wear less during the hot season @_@ must be a Hawaiian thing

When i'm back to Hong Kong at Anime con. I swear I'll be overdress and everything as a lolita :D

no language barrier in pictures! :) the polka dot lolita dress is really cute, and i think a peter pan collar would be a great addition.

when it comes to photos i just go straight to the person and just ask. the worst they can say is no.

I love seeing great people dressed up but i can never ask people to pose for a picture, Despite my bravado I can be shy sometimes.

noone said...

haha looks liek a fun place you would enjoy!! I hate asking random strangers to take pics!

NeCia said...

You and your friends you look beautiful and girly. Wonderful dress!

Piperita Patty said...

So many nice ladies! I never asked people for photos, I'm way too shy, but I should learn as some people is just too awesome!

I like your coord even if maybe white boots and white socks blend a bit too much.
Dressing up when it's hot is way too difficult, in particular in a layered style like lolita! Your idea of a detatchable collar is pure genius.
Did you see that some brands made short shirts and even false boleros? Something between useful and funny!

I love Marlena's blog! She's adorable! :3

You look super cute. If you want to do lolita in hot weather, I've seen girls just wear the dress with no blouse underneath. It looks pretty cute on them. :)
