My name is Michele and I am recently getting involved within the Lolita communities! So many lovely people! I am very excited to become a part of this ever-growing community. Passion for fashion~

Anyways, I am 19 and I live with my girlfriend Savannah. I'm very friendly and I love to help people with whatever I can. However, I tend to be a bit of a recluse and I'm skeptical of a lot of people. 'Tis a flaw. I have a real knack and love for the piano. I also love to draw (but I am too shy to show my drawings off). I've always kind of been a "casual" Lolita, but I am going to be using my wondrous tax return for a shopping spree... +__+ I am really excited to go to some of the meets coming up too! I prefer Kuro/Aristocrat/Hime/Gothic/Classic Lolita styles, though maybe one day I'll find some Ama that will look good on me. I also want to try making my own clothing for it too. n.n Looks like a lot of fun.

I cosplay outside of Lolita and my normal social life, and I usually make my own costumes. You can see my cosplay here: http://xwhiterussia.deviantart.com. I also use Tumblr, and you can totally follow me here: http://xwhiterussia.tumblr.com. I have a Facebook too, but I am very careful to who I add, so if you find me, please send me a message telling me who you are or I won't accept the request!

Hello, Houston lolitas! tsukiko113, saya35, and I would like to thank you for hosting the meet up at anime matsuri. It was nice meeting everyone! ( photos! )

I've got all of the information for AM here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zpP3CH9nlS8w538vAgPogG6NJUx6aD8k1x8QBnOb0bY/edit

If you have anything to add or any questions, feel free to tell me~

Hope to see you there!

Hello girls~ 

I'm hosting a Rakuten GO C: Here's a link to all the deets at egl-group-orders! I'll also be linking it on the facebook group~!
Just keep in mind that the third invoice won't be necessary since most of us can meet up  ♥

I'm going ahead and posting this here also.

Alrighty, my feedback: http://eglfeedback.livejournal.com/474426.html

and if you're still skeptical you can go and ask some of NYC lolitas about me, because we did the same sort of thing when Misako came over.

Since we'll be making gifts for 4 different people $5-10 should be fine. Please message me and I'll pm my pp address to you. Once you send a donation please put your lj username in the subject box.

You guys have some good ideas about gifts for them. I like the idea of giving them cheesy Texas stuff. Someone else mentioned giving them candy that's exclusive to Texas, but I honestly don't know any candy like that, unless you count Bluebell. xD
Some of you also mentioned decorating hats, I'll probably have to shoot down that idea since the hats will probably get smushed in their luggage :<

'Allo everyone! Some of you may have seen my post on the Facebook group that I'm in Taiwan right now and I'd like to offer what crushingice (Bayli) offered a few months back - Loliable lucky packs! I went out to a store today (it's similar to Fit but much, much bigger) and hauled a bunch of accessories (pics below)

I'll be back in town on the 18th, so if anyone would like to meet up with me then to do the exchange, or wait until the group meet, it's fine by me! You don't have to pay me until I give you the items~ (I'm only offering this to Houston lolis♥) 

items in this pic: Alpaca plush, pig-bunny plush, HK pencil pouch, penguin hairties, chocolate mirror, cloves, Mickey and Minnie alarm clock, Spongebob mirror and pencil case, a buttload of hairties with bows on them [yes, those are Chocomint replicas on the bottom left!!], a necklace, tights/leggings

For the size of each pack, I can pretty much make them customized to your wants/needs. Just let me know if there are any specific types of items or themes you'd like~ (hair ties, scarves, clothes? I've seen a lot of pretty umbrellas/parasols around lately~ ♥)

Any questions please don't hesitate to ask me on here or on FB~ (Jacie Pengu Huang)

What: Potluck picnic
When: Wednesday, March 14th
Where: Japanese Gardens, Hermann Park*

As you can see, the date has been decided for the meet up. It will be in the afternoon, with the exact hour to be determined by what the weather will be like on that day. I know a few people have expressed concern about the meet up happening over spring break, but I have hosted meet ups at this location during HISD's spring break before and it was not super crowded. The Japanese Gardens are off to the side of the park proper and do not get as much traffic as Hermann Park.

Now this is a potluck picnic, and everyone is encouraged to bring enough food to share. To make sure we don't all end up bringing cupcakes I've made a little poll to fill out. We'll also need a few people to bring plates and utensils. Everyone will need to bring their own beverage and blanket to sit on (although in the past we've always had more than enough blanketspace to share).

Poll #1817620
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 9

I am bringing...

Hello, everyone! I'm Katy and I'm new to this community, hence my introducing myself. I can't call myself a lolita - yet, since I don't have one article of clothing that can be called lolita at all. However, I am saving up for an outfit one of these days. ^^ I've been doing my best to research as much as possible on the lolita fashion in both America and Japan seeing as how they are both slightly different. In my findings, it seems that Japan has it fairly easy considering lolita is nothing new there, but in America it is most definitely something peculiar to look at. Anyway, I hope to meet you all one day!

How/When did you first find out about lolita? I can't remember how I found out about it, but I remember I was watching anime and saw one girl wearing an extremely pretty dress. I thought "I wish they made clothes like that in real life" and somehow I stumbled upon it one way or another. And here I am!

What is your favorite style of lolita? I really like Classic lolita. It's so simple and elegant and its very mature although I am young. It's very archaic and beautiful to me. *I won't lie, my opinion hops around since I at first loved sweet lolita, but then found myself drawn towards classic*

What style do you wear most often? ): None yet. But I'll be trying out Classic first.

What's your style like outside of lolita? I want to say I have two worlds? If that makes any sense. I wear dresses, simple most of the time, but I do also wear a kind of "hipster-ish" look. You know, thick rimmed glasses, the occasional beanie, converse, washed-out jeans, etc. Yet I love to wear dresses as well. I'm very paradoxical when it comes to myself unfortunately.

Where can we find you outside of LJ? I have a facebook! Katy Harris. Houston. Obviously.

 Anything else you'd like to add? Well, I hope to meet some of you soon. I would really like to go to the next meet-up if possible and introduce myself in person, although I won't be wearing lolita - due to lack of funds and lolita style clothing. If that's alright with you all. ^^
