it is pretty much summer by now and i'm already dreading it. i get the illusion that there is more time to do things now than before since the sun does not set until 8 or 9 o'clock at night. or does this mean, that i can waste more time nevertheless. i'm going to try to do a "saturday outfit" post every week. whenever i set a goal like this, it never seems to last. i'm going to cross my fingers this time that it will, at least until the next season when the daylight is shorter again.

also, i'm selling some clothes here if anyone is interested :)

calm, lasting beauty comes only in a dream

♥ ♥ ♥

flowers blooming, birds chirping, and the sun shining ever so softly. these are the sights and sounds of spring. and to commemorate this occasion, matt and i went to our secret garden for adventures. i also wore the loveliest dress from my closet to match. it is by "innocent world" and the print is absolutely perfect. cute critters playing musical instruments in a forest. i wish to live in this kind of fantasy world.

innocent world

matt agrees with me and as such, we'll always remain youthful in our hearts. next time we visit, i'm thinking a tea party of sorts accompanied by a game of chess? ^_^

would God I could awaken!



petit details

i made a floral wreath to wear with my "innocent world" dress, my first lolita item! these flowers were taken from an old japanese hat factory according to the shop's owner where i got them. she also suggested a lovely idea of using floral "sprouts" and adding glitter to them for a dreamy effect. i have some extra material left like a couple of these super cute puffy strawberries and leaves. not sure what i should do with them but i want to make more wreaths & hang them around my room~!

fairy wreath

   For I dream I know not how,
    And my soul is sorely shaken
    Lest an evil step be taken, --
    Lest the dead who is forsaken
    May not be happy now.

matt and i went on some adventures since we haven't done this in awhile. we explored a cathedral that i occasionally go to for mass. i've never noticed it before, but matt saw an occultic symbol on one window pane that was cleverly hidden yet pretty obvious coming in through the side entrance of the cathedral. we decided to go on this tiny old creepy elevator (3 people max!) to get to the balcony or tower. upon arrival, it was really dark and i must admit, scared that there could have been ghosts! we were the only ones up there.

afterwards, we went to the "alice in wonderland" garden that i was talking about last time. more pictures of this later <3
