Egl Portugal x Lolita en Nuncaxamais (Saturday)

Hello again!

Due to the proximity between northern Portugal and the Galician area of Spain, our community, Egl Portugal and Lolita en Nuncaxamais have established a sort of informal deal, that we would try to schedule meetings where elements for both communities would be present and alternate them between Spain and Portugal.

The last times it was the Portugese community to move to Spain for a visit and so, having that in mind, the girls from Lolita en Nuncaxamais decided it was more than time to come over to Porto for a visit.

I was in constant contact with the responsible party to get the total number of attendees and because I wanted to make sure they'd have a good experience I decided to book the same place I always book for special occasions, the Grande Hotel do Porto.

We met with some of the spanish lolitas in the main avenue of our city and then moved to the venue. I was a bit nervous to be honest, all I wanted was for them to have fun and want to come back to our lovely city.

We arrived a bit early and therefore could spend some time in the lobby, taking photos, chatting, etc.

After this, I escaped into the tea room and, with the help of the girls of course, got everything in place.
Kirarah made tickets for the girls to take as souveniers which was a perfect touch. Soon it was time to let everyone in the room for the munchies!

Have I ever told youthat i dislike my nose and my smile? I do. Welcome to "sala douro II".
The table with some of the food, the free goodies (a ring, regina chocolate,  etc).
The raffle goodies: me, two of the galician lolitas, toshio and annie all gave out things to be given away between attendees.


I really wanted to win this drawing by the talented Anniesama, and guess what luck got me! I was so happy! ^_^;
My outfit, Christina picked the color scheme so we could be matching.
You can see it more clearly here, in the tea room because of the light. I really love this dress, i wish i had it in every colorway. <3
Me and Darkmaid (Cristina) have known each other online for years, a decade! It is always so special when i can be with her in person, I think she is a great person, super open minded, super honest and just overall a great person.

After the meeting we went window shopping and then said goodbye because we were going to hit the bars later that night which we did. There are no photos of that unfortunately but I hope there were enough for you to have an idea of what went on that day.

Love always,
Jo

  2. wow, that is amazing! I wonder if we could ever do something like that at latin america, it´s harder to travel from one country to another... but it´s a good inspiration, you guys managed a great meeting!
    the place seems perfect for the occasion and so does your outfit, you always look fabulous!
