Loliday winter 2012

Hi everyone!

This time I'm going to post about how I spent this year's winter International Lolita Day. I was the one to organize it this time along with lucythewhite and we decided to go to an hotel in downtown Porto that we really like, the Grande Hotel do Porto. We decided to meet ther and have tea in a private room, play games and do a small giveaway as well.

The waiting room where we spent some time chatting and gathering everyone.
The tea room that they reserved for the group.
We only had tea and scones  but only because most girls wouldn't want to pay for the other,
more expensive, options
The whole group, only one girl missing (and the ones that weren't dressed according to the dresscode). 
I wore a simple forest green and black outfit.
I didn't have time to put any makeup on because i was late which was unfortunate
but there are more important things than how one looks when we have resposibilities.
One thing I actually took some time to do was to add a bow to my headdress
 and put some pearls and a crown to try and tie it better with the dress.
Takes 10min of one's time and improves an outit significatively.
I should pay more attention to details from time to time.
I looove lolita coats! I adore wearing lolita in the winter because of them and the mufflers and the scarfs and the mittens... I just love winter clothes. 
I was wearing:
MmM headdress + offbrand altered bow; Metamorphose shirt, Metamorphose jsk, MmM otk socks, Primark shoes, Innocent World coat, offbrand muffler.

After the meetup we were invited by one of the girls to go to her place and grab a bite for dinner. So we went home, changed clothes and headed over to her place.

We had a blast, it surely was a really nice day.
 I hope you can see how much fun we had from the photos and that you enjoyed reading about the Portuguese Lolita Loliday meeting. Girls came from all over the country too.

 Love, Jo

  1. You look so pretty!! Jewel colors really suit you <3 I've only been to a tea party in a hotel once, but I was there for a photoshoot so I couldn't dress up or really take part in it. It looks like you guys had a lot of fun :D

    1. Thank you Irene! <3
      Aww i wish we had the chance to do more shoots though, and i still dream of being able to do one with you, you're still my favorite lolita photographer.
      We did have fun, the hotel staff always helps make us feel welcome which is a plus.

  2. How do you look so perfect with no makeup?! I really love that shade of green on you, it just looks so warm and gorgeous! I also love winter clothes, probably because I'm from Florida and we can never wear them.

    1. Because i'm far away and its blurred like crazy? Well I did put some base on very quickly in the hotel because i am suffering from severe acne. It's terrible and i'm not over-reacting i assure you. Thank god for canmake BB Cream.
      I love winter clothes a lot too but i was never a fan of showing too much skin so that might be why (and lolita is perfect for me in that sense).
      Thank you Aviva, i appreciate you taking some time to comment here. <3

    1. I did, I did have a good time, thank you ^_^;
      I find it really odd when people say i pay attention to detail ever since i found out people plan their outfits ahead of time and i almost never do. I want to start planning ahead though.

    1. Thank you Rika! Well there's no black in my eyes, no pink on the cheeks and no color on the lips! But it doesn't look too bad.
      I love green as well and i tried to add something to the headdress to make it less "boring". I'm glad i pulled that off.
      Kisses,
      Jo
