I was so worried that this color wouldn't suit me but I am obsessed with it. I know lots of people have this sort of color right now so I want to see how much I could wear with it.

Fully expect to see this with atleast every version of Lady Rose that I have because the hot pinks are so hard to match but somehow match this hair!? LOL

I finally got energy to wear lolita after almost 2 months. Some wigs I had ordered finally arrived and so while I was trimming them and getting them styled, I kept feeling glimmers of "me". You know? The person I enjoy seeing myself as the most. So I finally took this coord off my mannequin and put her on!

All I really need to do now is to get an appointment with my opthamologist so I can get my contacts prescription renewed because I need to start getting new circle lenses stocked up for this year. :P

PSA:

My posts aren't made so you can shop my closet.

Show the internet you have some *actual* home training and do not be posting up under people's comments that you wanna buy their stuff. If they haven't listed it, it's *not for sale*.

Addendum: Don't be "getting in line" for the future either.

Chicago is such a beautiful mix of gritty grunge and golden antiquity. I hope I can visit again soon!

Day 1 (0?) coordinate to pick up our badges and go to the conservatory in Lincoln Park.

This is actually an old photo set. Wifey Renee and I went out for little treats with my little one because she had finished her BSN program earlier that week.

So proud of her!

Photo set from the Hoshibako works popup in October (September?), it turned out so good, lol. One of my favorite sets for sure.

I just *love* Osanpo! ;_;

We stopped at HomeGoods to browse around. We stopped to look at the wall art because Wifey Renee had been looking for a specific piece "The Unicorn Rests in a Garden," and really she was hoping to find the print if nothing else. While looking, I kept noticing that there were other framed prints in similar "medieval" styling and was pretty sure that either we would find the print or expect to see it soon. Sure enough, I was able to find a large, beautifully framed print of it for her, hehe. I felt like a lucky charm.

Wifey Renee and I went out again this week (12.09.25) and we ended up at Kinokuniya. For some reason, I have had the Midori Hibino 1 day on 2 page books on my wishlist and I was suddenly compelled to jump for the opportunity when I saw them sitting in the display case.

I already have my hobonichi lineup ready to go for 2026 so I am not entirely sure why I felt the need to grab this but something about it feels so right. I picked out the ribbon I plan to attach to my cover and I even went out of my way to search for my dream Hobonichi A6 cover to go with it since they fit the hibino books.

I know one of my biggest goals this year is to spend more time *sketching* along side my journalling. I also plan to go back to adding more ephemera and stuff as I noticed that it slowly ended up trickling into my 2025s after I said I wasn't going to do that. Also, while reviewing my old journals for inspo, I realized I was enjoying the visual presentations I had when I was going ham with that sort of stuff in previous years.

We went out on a little date the other day, it was a really short one because my little one still can only tolerate so much when we go out.

We were able to walk around and look at some comic book shops, plus we got to check out a really neat Pop Culture shop that had vintage pop culture collectibles. Hubby was able to walk away with a couple of horror figures he had been searching for for some time.

Dressy ribbon 🎀 coord!

My Sleepyland shop came the same day my Angelic Pretty Milky Cat pochettes did and my anemia has been doing a bit better so I got dressed to run errands aroound town!

I got a few things I have needed to replace since I had to clear out my wardrobe after surgery. I still couldn't bear to part with some things so I tried to make do as best I could, but it was finally time.

Bonus pic: the tiny scaredy cat I got from my manager last year is now giant-ahh grown man refusing to contribute to rent. Keeps saying he's waiting for his OnlyPaws to take off.

I had an idea and it went a little differently than I had had originally planned, it still panned out. I customized the cover of my A6 original techo with Milky Chan! I am planning to do the same with my A5 cousin cover but I'm going to use another print/character. I *might* do an usakumya print but Im not settled on anyone thing just yet.

Reblogging for our anniversary tomorrow. :)

Another old coord from last winter.

I cannot begin to tell you the amount of finagling the layering that went into this coord to make it work. The payoff was super cute and I'm hoping to do a more hime coord with it but I need to get a few more things for it, I think. I'd like to have some more fur elements!
