Innocent World Tea Party Vienna

Last Saturday was the great day - The Innocent Wold Tea Party took place in Vienna! It was the first Tea Party taking place in Austria, it was the first Innocent World Tea Party taking place overseas and for me, it was the first Tea Party I attended. ♥

Can you see me?^^

At 8:00 am in the morning the day started for me. I made myself ready and traveled to Vienna. At the railstation I met up with Punkangel and we drove to the hotel were the event took place. I had a VIP ticket, so I was allowed to go in one hour earlier than my friends. Inside I met Miko and we decided to walk around together a bit.

We checked out the sales booths and at the beginning I didn't really know what to buy because I was so excited xD I ended up with an Innocent World fur collar, a indie brand dress and a brooch.
Finally the general entrance started and the hall began to fill with lots of gorgeous Lolitas ♥ I never saw so many Lolitas in one place before and it was really a magical feeling *0*

Punkangel and I checked out the sales booths once more and the fashion show finally started. I recorded the fashion show with my camera for my friends youtube channel and hope to share it with you in the next post, so stay tuned :D My friend Medoly was part of the fashion show. All the models looked amazing *o*

After the fashion show we took some outfit pictures and tried the buffet. I sadly was rather un-photogenic that day but here is I pic I like :)

Bow - IW // Wig - Lockshop // Blouse - Infanta // Dress - IW //
Tights -  Ophanim// Shoes - Secret Shop

I actually was quite content with my outfit but when I saw how many of the other Lolitas decided to wear a bonnet I wished I had had that idea too. Well I'll keep that in mind for the next Tea Party xD

After the fashion show the band Lolita KompleX gave a short unplugged concert and than the Q&A, where Innocent World's designer Yumi Fujiwara answered our questions, took place. Fujiwara-san is such a cute person! ♥ She is a bit shy but I think that's what makes her so lovely :D
We were allowed to take pictures with her:

After the Q&A the raffle and contest prices were awarded. Every raffle ticket was a winner and there were such cool prices! Not to forget to mention that every visitor received a goodie bag at the entrance. We got floated with cute items (and flyers! I love flyers! ♥ )

 I was also very happy to meet a Lolita of my area. I knew her for I saw her at the bus station sometimes but I didn't know she was into Lolita :D

She is so cute! ♥  And Fujiwara-san chose her outfit as the winner of the best outfit contest. I was really happy for her ♥

After all the Tea Party had to come to an end. Personally I thought is was too short. I really enjoyed the program but I wish I had had a bit more time for talking to others and taking more photos ~

Medoly, Punkangel, Miko,Yu and me (and of course many other Lolitas I know) also visited the After Tea Party Party which was great fun.

I was super happy to be able to go to this Tea Party and I'm so proud of the organisation team for making it such a great event! ♥

Blouse haul :D

As promised I want to do a little review of the blouses I bought lately.

 I bought all six blouses on the German second hand community kleiderkreisel  from various sellers. I love how all of these are super loli-able and (except the mint one) they all were less than 15€ each. I think the whole amount I paid for this six blouses would be the amount one brand blouse would cost me. So this is a good tip for Lolita on a budget :D

The only short sleeved blouse I bought. It's from forever 21. I love the lace collar. Only downside of this blouse: the sleeves are too tight for me (wide upper arms and wide thighs lays in my family -.-) So I either have to lose weight or or add some elastics to the sleeves ~

Vintage blouse with sleeves in some kind of mid-length. It's so super comfy and I like the unusual colour :3

You have already seen this blouse in my gif lately :) It's forever 21 again. The collar is soo beautiful. It's my favourite blouse for everyday wear at the moment ♥

                     

                     

From all the blouses in this post, this one says 'Lolita' most to me. It has ruffles and a high collar. What else would I want? :D

This blouse was the most expensive. The brand is Giselle Rubinstein. It comes with a removable ribbon tie. The buttons are hidden. Sadly, it's a little baggy on me. I need to try a few combinations to see how it looks good on me :)

And last but not least, a H&M blouse. I love it ♥ The material is so nice to wear and the colour gives energy!

So after I bought all these blouses I noticed I have to few bottom pieces (so in my case skirts xD) to match them. So you can imagine I'm currently working on a skirt haul xD

I hope I could put you in a blouse-y mood!

See you soon,

49 things in my room

Lately I was in the mood of recording a video. I knew that I never could do a video with me talking in it and I also wouldn't really have a topic to talk about ~ 'So what to do?', I asked myself when they idea popped into my head: let's do a 50  49 things in my room video!

I'm no pro with videos but I hope you enjoy it nevertheless (n_n)
I honestly don't know why the video appears so strangely wide on my blog. I tried an hour to fix it but it doesn't work T.T Please open it with youtube for better proportions (and if you know how to fix it please tell me :D)

             

So these are the 49 itmes without my room wouldn't be MY room ^^ ♥

If you like on of the items and want to now where it got it from please ask away ~ However many of these things I got either as a gift or kept them since my childhood :)

(I actually didn't even want to upload it on youtube but uploading straight from my PC didn't work. Why are videos such a pain to handle? >.< )

Which times do make your room YOUR room?

Instagram Photo Diary - New Theme

Long time no Instagram post, right?
Only lately I changed my Instagram from random daily pictures to a more pastel themed page. I deleted quite a lot of my old photos (and I'm maybe going to delete more) and tried to upload cute ones. If you like Instagram pages that follow a certain theme feel free to follow me (^u^)/

  

   

  

Do you have an Instagram account?

Collar details - 7 ways to decorate your favourite blouse

Lately I ordered quite a bunch of blouses from an online secondhand market. I didn't receive all of them yet but when I do I want to share them with you. Until then have this post in which I want to show you the possibilities of adding accessories to your blouse's collar.

My first completely selfmade GIF. Yay ^0^

#1 Rose

Simple fake rose I glued on a pin.

#2 Bow

I sewed this one myself. I will upload a tutorial eventually :)

#3 Cameo

Bought on a local Christmas-Market last year. I love cameos for their elegant touch ♥

#4 Pearls

Put pearls on a thread and pin the ends under the collar to get this effect.

#5 Ribbon Bow

Take a ribbon, tie a bow and pin it on.

#6 Necklace

I actually had a hard time finding a necklace with the right length :/

#7 Chain

I made this myself from broken jewelry. If you don't have the materials you can also buy one ^^

I hope you liked this post.

I had fun making it ♥

Also, thanks to you who participated in my survey. It's great to see that there is no kind of post that bored you ^^ I didn't know reviews are so popular (I know that nearly anybody likes tutorials but reviews??) so I will post one whenever I have the chance to do so :)

Thanks for sticking with my blog,

Clobbaonline order review

Already quite a time ago I received the items I ordered through clobbaonline.com, a taobao shopping service site.
I ordered brown Tea Party shoes from Secret Shop and a brown Infana blouse.

Communication: The communication with clobba works as follows: You send them the filled out order form that can be found on there page. Fill in the items you want, your measurements and some other stuff ~ You can also choose witch shipping method you want. I chose Airmail, a cheap but a bit slow shipping method. I wasn't in a hurry to receive the items, so slow shipping was no problem for me.

After you send the order form clobba will text you back if the items are still available and will double check you measurements. You can ask questions if you have any and place your payment.
Most taobao items are custom made so now it is time to wait until they are made. Then you receive an email that your order has been shipped and you only have to wait for it to arrive :)

The communication was polite and fast, as I expected, so 5/5

Shipping: As I said I chose Airmail. It took about 2 weeks to arrive and that is perfectly fine 5/5

Now onto the products:

Secret Shop Tea Party Shoes

 I was a bit concerned witch shoe size to get because I ordered Secret Shop shoes before (in size L) and they were too tight on me. I'm an European size 39 but my feet are strangely wide. This time I went for size LL and they fit a lot better :)

The colour is a nice dark brown like I wanted it and I couldn't find any flaws. 5/5

Infanta Lady Embroidery Chiffon Blouse

I ordered it in size L. On clobba's site it says that the brown material isn't stretchy so I was afraid it might be uncomfortable. However it is super comfortable and my favourite blouse now ^^

The sleeves are pretty, however, there were quite a few loose threads :/

I'm also very fond of the detailed collar.♥  The lace is nice and soft just how we Lolitas like it ^^

The button holes bother me a bit. Everytime I put the button through it feels like I could rip them apart or something :/ That's the downside of that blouse. 

4/5 because of loose threads and delicate button holes.

To sum up, I'm satisfied with my order and would buy the items again.

I hope this review was useful to you.

See you,

Yaya ♥
