Happy Loliday

Hello everyone,

How are you?
So obviously this is a loliday post, so sorry if its a bit cliché.
In our local community we alternate between meeting in the north (where I live) and the capital city. So usually when we celebrate it here lolita fashion fans travel from Lisbon to Porto and when its done there me and a couple others travel south. I rarely miss a Loliday. Unfortunately this time I couldn't go. My summer vacations are almost here and I have no money saved this time so I'm kind of worried.
It feels very bad not to have been there but I'm glad that they seem to have had a lot of fun!

So I just stayed home with my familly but instead of just doing my normal live in something else I decided to wear lolita.

I woke up fairly late, around 10am and my daughter was in my bed. My husband probably fed her and put her there. It's amazing how people around me can do a ton of things without being able to wake me up. I have a very heavy sleep.

After that I had breakfast and did some house chores.
I do not mind doing the laundry at all, its one of those things I will do with a smile on my face.
After this my husband called me for lunch. We had stew, chicken, beef, potatoes, cabbage, carrots... that sort of thing. It was tasty. <3 he is such a wonderful cook. Then it was back to work...

Vacuum cleaning doesn't bother me much either although its annoying to have to do it every 2 days.
I also put away some clothes. I don't mind that either, I do mind ironing... a LOT. I hate ironing. ;_;
After the house was more organized and everything was in place I got into something nicer.
I fell in love with a dress today and because i just got my paycheck and before I waste it all on house stuff and bills I got carried away and got it. It'll be waiting in Japan for me when I go back this summer. I already have two more dresses waiting for me there. I might not be able to afford much there but this way it'll seem like I did a ton of shopping. Inspired by that moment of happiness (why does buying lolita make me so happy? I'll never know...) I decided to wear one of the pair of tights the lovely Aviva sent me and came up with something a bit crazy but i still like it.

 All done! I actually managed to put on fake lashes today! I am so proud of myself.
 I had to ask my  husband to take photos of my outfit, he never says no, he's a sweetie.


 So this is my outfit. I tried to wear a bit of red to match the tights too. You can't see it clearly but one leg is focues on the queen of hearts and the other is focused on the king of clubs.

After this we had dinner. we had salad and shrimp. It's so easy to get one's clothes dirty when eating shrimp by hand so I got in my hello kitty apron and it ended up being alright. I also had a mini beer. I really like beer even if its not very lolita haha.
We watched a bit of tv and now I'm in front of the pc and plan on playing a bit of sims3 before switching to my pjs. 

So even though I didn't get to hang out with other lolitas in person this day was pretty nice. I enjoy my calm days at home with my familly, how couldn't I when I have such a loving husband and smiley daughter, right?

What about you? What did you do today?


A big kiss with love, always,
Jo

      Mari is a really nice baby, i'm so blessed! <3

    1. Bem sinceramente até gostei de ter tido um dia calminho, acho que para variar foi bom, foi estranho andar de lolita a arrumar a cozinha, a jantar e a fazer coisas domesticas mas não correu mal. Podia ter corrido muito mal. obrigada linda, tenho muitas saudades!

    1. aww that's my favorite shot of the day too. My husband really did do a fantastic job capturing that moment. <3
      Well I think she is still fascinated, every time she sees someone in full lolita attire she just smiles a lot. It's super cute and very funny. <3

    1. Thank you so much! My house is pretty ordinary, I just like antique looking things so I try to get bargains and add bits and pieces here and there. But Ikea is my life savior really. ^_^;

  9. It looks like you had a very great day! :D Your outfit is very nice too. I've never had a blogspot or a blogger account of anything, but I made one so I could follow your blog. I stayed home during my loliday also.

    Tambem, o meu Português não é perfeito, mais a minha família vive no Brasil, então eu sempre acho bom poder practicar a língua. :)
