Sugar Coated Lolita Inspiration ♡

I go to Tokyo in 100 days time with Craig! Words cannot describe how insanely exciting this is for us - it's been both of our dreams since we can ever remember - Japanese culture, and the many vibrant beautiful trends and subcultures has always fascinated me and I can't wait to explore it all and find lots of exciting pretty pastel treats! 

Pink Lolita's have always been a big inspiration - I love the enormous bows, layering of sheer and ruffley Marie Antoinette style pastel & just complete sugar overdoses. I decided to make a little mood board based on some of my favourite inspiring images/ pretty things (I have soooo many images I could have included so will probably be making more soon) <3

I wish the array of exciting bows and ribbons and chunky shoes! ahhhh massssive wishlist!

If any of you lovelies know anywhere good to go I'd absolutely love to hear from you! 

(Most images taken from weheartit) Top Row: Lolly Pop swirls as accesories, big puffy pink hair with lilac bits in, super long spidery eyelashes <3, an AMAZING hair do -(if anyone knows where this is from let me know!) - she's just pure candy floss!, pink lychee drinks (SO super yummy, a recent discovery from the Japanese super market near me - it seems like Japan has hundred of varietys of these exciting tea/fruit based juices <3

Second row: Two Lolitas in head to toe pink (LOVE IT), a very insane looking floral petal cake!, a super cute lolita with an overload of bows and pretty darling accesories in her hair.

Third Row: A Make your own ice cream cake thing- and they have faces..which you add...just wow!, really cute manga drawing, japanese bun <3

Fourth Row: Gorgeous pink blythe complete with her own mini hello kitty, chunky fringe,lace collar and turquoise oversize bow <3 and a completely gorgeous Marie Antoinette dress.

Pink Cotton Candy Wonderland♡

Thought I'd share some favourite February (and all time) inspirations & things I'm forever obsessed with straight from the wonderland ...

♡

From Top Left: Top Row: Charlotte Free & her dreamy style & ever changing pink hair (a girl after my own heart), The Virgin Suicides Photography Stills book (been trying for over 4 years to get a copy and its so rare, but sometimes catch glimses of its gorgeous contents on blogs & fall in love all over again), Pink haired Blythes..I am forever a Blythe super fan and these ladies will always come tops!..


Second Row: A sneaky peak at a very special Marie Antoinette illustration I've been working on for a very lovely lady (you'll find out more soon!), The Pastel Hair spread from Lula magazine a few years ago, I continually look at it and wish I could have every colour and float around in fairy space like the pretty girls in the pictures, Miniature Carousels! (SO dreamy!!)


Third Row: Lana Del Rey in her Vogue Spread March Vogue 2012, I've loved her since the moment I first heard her, I don't care if she's massive and tons of people hate her for silly reasons, at the end of the day I think she's beautiful inside and out and her voice is just delightful, Wild fox new collection & collaboration with Jeffrey Campbell...ballet platforms and long floaty pastel lilac skirts..my wish list is forever growing!! So perfect! ♡, Miniature cakes and dollhouse things! I need to get a dollhouse & start collecting it's all so gorgeous! 


Fourth row: Sleeping beauty, forever inspiring and my most favourite princess fairytale of all, Louis Vuitton S/S 12, Candy colours, ice cream and a fashion show where they all rode on a giant carousel...stuff of dreams! & lastly, unicorns, they are always a big feature in my imagination, and I love drawing them..fantastic excuse to always get the glitter out! They also remind me of one of my favourite 90's films 'The last unicorn'. 


I managed to finally get my hair to the cotton candy shade I wanted today tooo - yay! 


& Some new prints I've previously posted about are now available in my shop! ...Rose Petal Deer Shop


Hope your all having lovely weekends! Lots of Love x x x
