No more macarons

Hello!

So remember that place I was so happy about having reopened, the tea house where we usually hang out around here? It closed, yes, AGAIN. The sign on the door was removed, everything inside is gone and there's a paper saying it is closed for debt meetings. I think its gone way past meetings now, it looks like a ghost store. It's terrible. How did they let this happen again?
But anyway less more worrying and terrible than those poor workers being put in this spot again (I used to chat with them about it) but still disappointing is the fact that again we no longer have a french style pastry café again.

We had scheduled a meeting exactly at that place and when one of the girls got there she saw what was going on and for a bit we thought they were closed only on that day but nah.
So we changed plans and moved to the Armazém do Caffé which is also tasty and the people who work there are also pretty nice so it was ok.

I arrived a tiny bit later than I wanted to but when I got to the coffee shop I wasn't the last one so that made me feel less guilty. But lucy and kuks were already there and they looked so beautiful, I was smitten! kirarah and Sakura arrived a bit later and we sat there and chatted a lot mainly about cultural differences between Japan and Portugal because Sakura dreams of living there.

The theme was "floral" so I went with a grey x black outfit that time. The weather was sad and gloomy and I didn't feel like wearing a lot of color then. I think it was an ok pick since the dress and tights have tons of floral details and I have some flowers on my hair as well.

 

The coordinate made of: MmM hair accessories, BPN coat, Meta dress, Iw tights and my beloved bordello boots that I wear way too much.

 The fact that I picked black ended up being great for the group shots as we all looked completely different even though the theme was the same. Don't they look beautiful?

 After spending the afternoon drinking hot chocolate/tea/coffee and chatting about this and that we eventually came back to my place where some of the girls got to finally meet my daughter. I really like this photo because Lucy and Kirarah look very happy and so does Mari. <3 I want to have it framed.

And this is what a lolita mommy looks like I suppose.
We decided we should go to a restaurant and have dinner together for a change so we went to lucy's favorite chinese restaurant and had a good time there. We ended up meeting another portuguese lolita there who didn't even know we were heading to the same restaurant so it was sort of amusing.
After this amazing night was over we said goodbye parted ways and headed back home.

I wish we could all just have fun like that every day. But the next day was a work day. Back to reality. :D

Hope you liked reading about my day again.
Love,
Jo
