1. Best lolita fashion advice you've ever received?
Only use good lace? I actually don't think I've ever specifically been given advice, I just tried to copy things I liked and figure out what exactly Lolita was and then went from there.

2. Style icons?
Maki and Asuka <3, Misako Aoki, mintymix, osea_chelleo, mint_cake, palantiriell, faunkegin, herajika, faith_chann, buttonss, vivcore...I'm sure there are more, but those are who I can think of off the top of my head. Anyone who is creative and sweet. :)

3. Describe your personal style.
Pink? Although I've actually been phasing pink out in terms of main items. I have mostly pastels (mint and lavender especially) with light or hot pink accessories and accents. My style is usually a toned down version of OTT sweet, and occasionally a more princessy old fashioned sweet. I make a point to be completely accessorized from head to toe, though.

4. Favorite designers/brands?
ANGELIC PRETTY. I love Baby second best, and then probably Meta, but AP holds my heart. Maximam is lovely, too, and Swimmer if they count. Certain Innocent World and Victorian Maiden items catch my maidenly heart as well, but I'm too OMG PONIES AND SPARKLE to build much of a classic wardrobe.

5. Most cherished items?
Hmmm...probably my AP blouse with the pink dot tulle on the sleeves. I wear it A LOT. Also my Sugary Carnival and Rose Toilette.

6. Most used item?
The aforementioned blouse! And my Anna house bloomers, lol, even though I kind of hate them.

7. I feel best wearing?
Lots of colors! I like to wear the pastel rainbow.

8. The first thing I look for in another lolita's outfit...
How they've accessorized. Seriously, accessories are what make an outfit original and you, so if a girl has cute accessories or shoes or hairpieces I will be all over her (in a good way).

9. I never break this lolita fashion rule.
I think I break all of them, sometimes. I think it's fine to break a few at a time, as long as you're not breaking all of them at once. Observing a few "rules" is what makes it Lolita.

10. Never caught wearing?
Red. I have one skirt, but it really just doesn't look good on me, or with the pink hair.

11. Dress to impress who?
I like Andrea's answer: "The street is a fucking runway bitchez"! But if I can impress people I admire, it means the world to me.

12. Your next "must have" purchase?
Probably this skirt cuz my mad love for it has not gone away. I also need a short sleeve pink blouse, but I'm not feeling very mut have-y about anything right now...just moar.

13. Favorite type of head accessory?
Smaller headbows and various medium sized clips. Roses and butterflies are good, too.

14. Favorite cut of clothing (shirring, high waist, princess seams etc)?
I have no idea. I love JSKs with a tailored look? Like fake-y corsets and such.

15. Current obsession?
Pastels colors and butterflies.

16. Best lolita fashion advice you can give to anyone?
Don't care about the haters, wear what makes you feel beautiful.

I promise I will post about something other than Lolita...eventually.
