[26]. RAWR! Wild lolitas at the zoo & dinosaurs too...

Good evening, dear readers ^-^!

I finally have the internet at my house, yay!

Wild lolitas at the Zoo.

My fellow housemate Hayley is a lolita too,

so we were helping each-other to get ready in the morning.

It's always nice to have a bit of company whilst running around

like a crazy headless chicken!

What to wear?!

I settled for my new dress from Emily Temple cute,

called "Wonderland Velveteen Ribbon" :3

Hayley & I left the house together, making her late as I was taking forever!

Sorry about that :/ - I get really annoyed with myself too...

We managed to get on a bus to the train station to pick up more lolitas

and naturally we started cam-whoring, lol!

Myself & Hayley on a bus :3

We were a sight ourselves for the locals & few tourists!

Anyway, once we collected everyone at the train station,

we headed off to the Zoo on another bus ^-^!

Once we arrived, we went straight to the big picnic area they have,

to stuff our faces with some sugary/salty goodness!

We had things like; various cupcakes, mini meringues, quiches, 

little strawberry tarts, crisps, grapes & seeds.

I think we had a fair mix of food stuffs, there are some healthy things in there!

The mini meringue matched my dress!

Mini strawberry tart :3

After munching we roamed around the zoo, looking for cute animals ^-^!

Here are some pictures of some adorable animals we saw;

Red Panda munching away :3

DINOSAURRRR D:

I think this monkey just wants to break free ♪

Tapir with a mohawk!

Sleepy sloth, bless him...

How cool does this frog look?! Probably poisonous!

Lions, this one's the queen of the Zoo.

Near the end of the day we nearly forgot to take photos of ourselves, haha!

Obviously we went straight to everyone's favourite dinosaur, T-Rex :D

There were loads of others there too and even one with baby dinosaurs :3

Unfortunately we didn't get a photo of all of us together... (;____;)"

But there's always next year, though!

A few of us pretending to be T-Rex - (stole this pic from Bexy, sorry!)

Me looking stupid >_>

This is what my whole outfit looked like!

I hope you like it ^-^!

Thank you for reading ^-^!

I'm really sorry for the delay in posts,

but now that I have the internet at home I'll hopefully catch up quickly!

What's your favourite animal?
Let me know in the comments below!

I'd love to go to Edinburgh Zoo to see the pandas one day,
before we have to give them back to China!

[7.] "Foreign" lolitas, part 5...

Good afternoon readers ^-^!

Great Britain.

The country I'm living in.

I'm the foreigner here, haha!

There are so many lovely lolitas here,

they all made me feel so very welcome ❤

When I first moved to the UK, 

I joined the South-West Lolitas as they're my local girls!

 I also lived in London for a year and joined the Londoners,

but more about them in the next post!

Let me introduce you to my 3 "favourite" girls!

My longest serving UK lolita friend;

~* Hayley *~

Hayley & I at the JetJ + Teaparty Club event in London!

Hayley is one of the most interesting people I've ever met.

Her views in life really inspire me and even though we don't always

agree on everything, I really value her opinion!

As a lolita, Hayley is always very creative in every way possible.

There's always a bit of her personality in her outfits, which I love.

She's also a master of the art of hot-glue-gunning!

 I really need some training in this :3

~* Amy *~

Amy at Bristol Zoo with T-Rex!

Amy is by far the most kind-hearted person I've ever met.

She would do anything for anybody and she couldn't harm a fly.

Apart from if it's a mosquito and she's in Spain on holidays :3

As a lolita, Amy always brings a little bit of punk to her outfits.

She's a little rebel, loves mixing black with pink and she never wears wigs!

I really admire her style, because she doesn't care what anybody thinks of her!

Amy is also my karaoke partner in crime.
Our song is "Living on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi!

~* Leah *~

Leah dressed up for International Lolita Day in 2011.

Leah has a fiery personality and amazing willpower! 

She'll lighten up any party with her energy.

She's an expert in making dread locks and I don't think I've ever

seen her with the same hair style twice in a row!

I love Leah's lolita style, because she always puts in lots of effort.

Even when we're having a casual day, she'll look amazing!

I love this yellow outfit on her; not many people can pull off a yellow dress.

These are my local girls who I love hanging out with.

They are true friends who will never let you down.

I'm so glad I've met all of you!

Our community tries to hold as many meet-ups as we can,

though lately we have all been extremely busy with personal things!

At least there are always 2 annual events to look forward to:

• The community's birthday, celebrated in February with karaoke & sushi.

• The annual Zoo meet-up, usually in August, celebrated with cute animals.

Bonus picture from the Zoo in 2010 as sadly I had to miss it in 2011.

Not even the British weather is stopping us from seeing cute animals ^-^!

I spotted some wild lolitas from afar - Annual Zoo Meet, 2010.

Come join us one day ^-^!
