30 Things Every Lolita Should Have


    (photo courtesy of We ♥ It)

  1. a few sheets of cute stickers, for adding to cards, notes, or envelopes;
  2. printed notepaper with a cute style;
  3. a lipgloss in her favorite color, to apply when she might meet someone fabulous;
  4. a simple, comfortable dress to run errands in;
  5. a pretty pair of headphones or earbuds for walking by herself;
  6. a tiara for adding to luxurious hairstyles, for special events;
  7. one excellent makeup trick that always wows her friends;
  8. the perfect parasol for sunny days, or alternately -
  9. a wonderful friend who will share hers;
  10. a tripod and camera, for taking her own daily outfit shots;
  11. one completely different outfit that is for her alter-ego, for being in disguise;
  12. the know-how to plan a meetup;
  13. a notion of using public transport, like subways, buses, or trains for getting her where she needs to go;
  14. a list of things she loves about herself tacked to her mirror;
  15. a pair of shoes that make her steps feel princess-like;
  16. a conglomerate of style icons she can refer to when she feels out of creativity;
  17. the trick to applying false eyelashes;
  18. one excellent wig for when her hair just won't do what she wants;
  19. the knowledge that settling is for lesser spirits;
  20. a classic book for when she doesn't want to meet the eyes of people staring in public;
  21. a Tide-to-Go pen for rescuing dream dresses;
  22. a nest egg for buying the perfect item for herself, by herself;
  23. a shopping service she trusts;
  24. a purse that seems to have a black hole in the bottom, willing to accept anything from cameras to entire coats;
  25. a coat trimmed with fur, to be complimented on whereever she goes;
  26. a look-book of street snaps and photos she admires, with a list of items she wishes to own;
  27. a name for her own personal style, which she alters as she wants;
  28. the ability to take the advice of the Internet, but also to turn it off and do her own thing;
  29. a petticoat guranteed to give you model-worthy poof;
  30. one photograph of herself in her first dress to remind her how far she's come, and one photograph of herself in her best dress that reminds her why she became a lolita in the first place.

Thanks for the sweet list. I smiled at each one that I have. Making a note of the ones I still need to work on. (just bought my princess shoes last week!). One of my Loli resolutions for 2010 is to set aside one day a month as my "Princess Day". Jan 31 is the first one.

Whoaa, 2 years later I realize I did almost the exact same post as you D: Sorry about that! I didn't even know about this post until I saw it linked under your most recent post!

Sorry about that! If it's any consolation, yours is much cuter and more lifestyleyer than mine XD
