I hope everyone had a good Easter last week ♥ It was also spring break for me, so not much worrying about school (though I DO need to get up on that = w=)

My outfit for Resurrection Sunday came out perfectly. I wish I had more pictures! I'll wear it some other time, maybe for an actual photo shoot or something, but for now, just a faceshot and a mirror pic xD







I'm serious when I say I -love- this outfit. I've never felt so princessy before, in my whole 4 years of wearing lolita! Every (good) picture I took I felt so gorgeous, like a southern belle and I just ahjbvsdasjh dfhsabvdswhdsdbsa. Yeah. LOL

Easter was good. Morning service got me started (though Bishop's voice is way too soothing.. fell asleep on the Word *yet again* = A=), then afterwards we went to this restaurant downtown Brooklyn (it was always meh... this time they were -really- off, but whatever) and then after that I went to Hezikiah Walker's concert/Resurrection service at the Brooklyn Mariott. It was pretty good! I never saw Hezikiah Walker in real life before, only some of his music (I'll admit, I'm not too much of a gospel head to keep up with people). He was an elder at Beulah back in the day, so I decided to go just to see how he's like. Didn't stay till the end though. I wonder how long that thing lasted...

Belated haul post :U

This is what I got in my package from Mai last week~

I forgot the name of this print/line... but...





matching polka dot bolero the back has this cute lace-up detail that I haven't seen before.. I've never actually worn it yet to see how it looks worn from the back buttt it's really cute. The ties in the front are detachable too.

Basically what I'm wearing to Sakura Matsuri LOL. I have no clue what I'm doing accessory wise or anything, I don't got lavender shoes to match but... I'll figure something out.


Music note socks... I was supposed to get these for Halloween last year, but Mai forgot to put them in the package I sent ><;; welp, I got them now. I can try again this year LOL

The -ORIGINAL- Little Bear's Cafe bow. Now I can compare the fabric difference between the original items and the replicas LOL like a loser



Mai always give some candy or some sort of gift with each package she sends, and so I got these random little Disney halloween candy packs.

I got Dale and the Cheshire Cat. Kind of wish I had gotten Marie instead of the latter >w>;;



I also bought a coat from Square One... two actually. It was a 2-for-20 sale, so I got myself one, and I also got one for Angela/Xiao when I finally send her lashes to her (mad late as hell = w=). I was waiting to add a few more things in her package as a love gift. I was also going to get a bunch of Victoria Secret samples for her as well, maybe. I hope she likes everything ♥



Hers is fine, but mine, some of the big buttons are loose so I gotta stitch it back = w= I don't really mind speaking that it was basically 10 bucks. I just wanted to get a cheap jacket I'll be able to wear later on. I'll probably go back and buy more sooner or later.

Second haul post coming up later this month hopefully, granted that I get my mom's birthday present (along with a lil somethin for myself xD), and hopefully my Victoria's Secret two-piece for the summer, and pay Mai to send my gyaru shit (though I have a feeling that I'll splurge and buy more stuff from DreamV and from Sweet Angel. Like a new yukata or something xD). Oh, and Taobao as well. Can't forgot about that.

To move away from the frustration I was feeling from my last post.. lol

So there's two important things I'm trying to get done this week:
1) Making sure all my shit gets here for Easter/Sakura Matsuri = w=
2) trying to do a yukata photo shoot at BBG while the trees are still alive

It's been raining and storming an awful lot this past week, so I've been worried about how Sakura Matsuri would turn out (e.x. the fail that was last year). Considered a pre-matsuri meet with some other girls because they suggested it, but with the Matsuri being next weekend and this week I'm scrambling to get all my crap for Easter Sunday, I'm not trying to worry about another meet lol.


First off, Easter:
I was stressing a looot this past weekend because I had pretty much done most of the requests at least 3 months in advance: told Mai 3 weeks ago to send my dresses for Easter + Sakura Matsuri so it won't get stuck in customs (now that they're checking pretty much every package from Japan for radiation..), talked with Apatico two months ago about the idea of getting a hat done, did the an*tai*na shoe order through Taobaospree. Anything else I was gonna get locally once these things got here. I was hoping to hear something from all of them last week, but I didn't really. But this weekend was when all the news started flowing in~




Sooo! My dresses are already shipped, so I'm hoping they won't be caught in U.S. customs too long, hopefully the latest they'll come is Saturday. Apatico sent me pictures of my hat, which looks so fucking boss I can't even contain myself~ I just need to pay and then she'll send it Priority. Lucy hasn't responded to me yet about antaina, but I'm not concerned since I can just use my heart heels instead~ hopefully I'll be able to walk in them LOL I abuse my feet way too much. As far as a bag, I'm not sure, but if anything I got my pink Swimmer bag to match, or if I manage to get my shoes on time, I was going to get a new black bag to match. The tights are Leg Ave, just tried them on:




Speaking of Apatico's hat, here are the larger pix~





I'll do a full review once I get my hat x3333 so excited to get it in the mail HNNGHHHH



And then plan and pics about #2...
