As the Liberdade trip's post was already too long, I decided to put my shopping in this post!
It was a dream that became true: shopping for lolita clothes in a physical store. I can't even define how amazing it was to walk around with shopping bags full with lolita stuff!
So, let's see what I bought!
Scarlet Love Letter
渔老板 (Yú Lǎobǎn)
As soon as we got on the front of the second Beryl Shop, I put my eyes on this dress, looking through the shopping window, and it was love at the first sight! This is a very gorgeous dress, that needs a hella big petticoat for it, and that's what I like the most! I think it will be perfect to study cello, and also to go to concerts and museums too! This floral is so delicate and, paired with this dark red, will match my red hair perfectly.
The set came with the dress, a matching headdress, some puffy sleeves (in the photo I added them to a Body Line blouse, so you can see them in action), and a rose choker.
The quality of this piece is very good, it has full back shirring (no zipper), and has boning (I think it's the plastic one) so everything stays in place perfectly without folds in my case.
Wa Lolita maid set
熊熊饼干 (Xióngxióng bǐnggān / Bear Bear Cookies)
This one I bought at the first Beryl Shop, in Bom Retiro. I choose this piece because there's some Sakura Matsuris near my hometown, and I wanted another Wa Lolita set so I can wear on these occasions!
The cool part is: it's a set, so everything's separated. That means I can do more combinations with what I have. Worn, the skirt is a little short for my height, so I use it over another dress to gain lenght (Poupée Girl hack, iykyk). As the "obi"-like band is a little bit small, I already sewn one for it, more beautiful and comfortable. The "maid" part looks strange with the full set (seems like the set was made with all the beginner otaku loli stereotypes, even a jingle bell is attached), so I will use the apron for some Angelic Prety sweet themed dress, because I think that's too much info in one thing.
Even with those adaptations, this is a very cute set and wearing it adapted, I swear, I stayed hours at home wearing this and I didn't wanted to take it off lol. That shows it was a good purchase.
Lolita Magazines
I bought two magazines: an Otome no Sewing, to keep up with my collection, and the Angelic Pretty's Prettiest, showing the golden times of AP, when I still loved it with all my heart.
Face masks
I'm clueless, so I bought these for fun. And it was indeed much fun, I gave a good laugh looking at me at the mirror with this thing on it!
Candy Tin
The candy tasted like Fini, so it was a win-win, considering you know I bought it for the tin.
I'm using this tin to store remedies inside my bag.
I'm so happy with my purchases! I hope I can return there soon to buy more!
