I'm on holiday!

Hello everyone!

So I am oficially on holiday starting today and I already wore lolita because my local comm had a meeting scheduled (Saturday, 11th July) and they had a theme, Alice in Wonderland. I did not want to go in something super elaborate because it is summer but I was not sure of what i could wear in the theme... until i remebered I had this dress and so I decided to go as a classic version of Alice. I put it together right before the event.

I decided to take my daughter because my husband offered to give us a ride and was being super supportive. He really wants me to enjoy myself as much as possible which is basically one of the reasons I fell for him, his heart.

Everyone seemed cool about me taking her and she had fun, she ate so many sweets (I only had tea so that was fine). Not sure its good for a kid her age to eat stuff like that but i suppose one time won't hurt. 
Since I lost my favorite and only pair of sunglasses I had to get a new pair. It does not match lolita at all. haha
I am a bit worried about these shots to be honest, maybe my camera settings are wrong. I must ask someone who gets them to have a look. Photos come out a bit blurry and with little definition at the moment. 
After tea, cookies, confeito and chatting they called us for photos. I asked Gabi to take some shots with my camera too because she will only deliver hers in a couple weeks and that did not make sense to me since I'm on holiday and now is the time I can actually update (but she is really busy!) so that's why I have some photos. I could have taken more now that I think back.

The only shot I sort of like, look how blurry it is! Anyway this was my classic take on Alice.
Outfit info:
Onepiece: Atelier Pierrot
Head accessories: offbrand (stradivarius, aatp and chantilly)
Acccessories: handmade, offbrand (primark, bijou brigitte)
Tights/socks: offbrand (primark/tutuanna)
Shoes: offbrand (t.u.k.)
The "tea time" gigantic tea cup necklace really brought the look together.
My friend Paula made it so its dear to me too. <3
After the shots we spent some time chatting outdoors in a café because it was really hot inside the store. Braga is a city away from the coat so temperatures are higher there.
At 7-ish we were ready to go home, especially since we were 45min-1 hour car ride away from home.
We said our goodbyes and thank you and left.
It was nice spending the day with local lolitas, it had been a while.

Hope you enjoyed reading about my day and that you are enjoying yourselves too.

    We had an event in Extremadura too (I don't know if you have ever visited this region, it's pretty far from Braga, although is next to the frontier) and it was too hot! People looked at us as if we were crazy ^^U

    1. Ah I do not know of your community, I do get in touch with the Galician community very often so I have a soft spot for spanish lolitas. I hope one day we can meet!
      Love, Joana

  5. Eu gostaria de ter feito algo no aniversário de 150 anos, mas não deu. Adoraria ter usado uma roupa inspirada no Mad Hatter. Sua versão de Alice estava linda :3

    1. Ah bem a ideia nem foi minha mas de outra menina. Eu pensei nisso e usaria a minha cartola mas não me apeteceu, achei que ia ser previsivel. Ninguem esperava que ia keep it simple e ir pela alice. :P
      Muito obrigada karine!!!
