Walking through the clouds ♪

And there she was gone again for a couple of weeks, oh no!

But she's back again in good spirits and something new to show ♥

Where I've been? Well, t'was mostly just the usual daily life that caught me, regular work, meeting friends, celebrating my birthday and working on some things including a little bit of a surprise that'll come up sometime soon!

Back in March I also managed to finish another drawing that I've been working on way too long and after that didn't get around to scan until today. It's been for a lovely girl who once did a little drawing for me when we decided to do a little swap. It's been too long since that and I'm just very, very slow at drawing (which is why I'll probably never be able to do things like comissions, oh woe is me) but after all, I finish what I want to finish. Even if it'll take me centuries.

Just a lovely, little Lolita girl in her own little, dreamy world. Drawn with Copic Ciao markes and coloured Pencils as usual.

It's nothing really special but maybe someone likes it anyway ♥


Until next time ♪

Tell them I'm a dreaming kind of guy ♪

A guy who has been so dreamy they completely forgot to write a proper little something for this little bitty blog.

This was definitely not my intention but those days passed by almost unnoticed until it was time for me to leave my vacational comfort zone to go to work again this week. 

The daily grind has gotten back to me just as I have gotten back to you to show you something new from the past. This time it's pictures from a Lolita meet up in my hometown the week before Christmas.

It has been a really sweet little meet up with lots of nice peeps, glorious cake and darling hot chocolate. All of that in the somehow-snowy-but-not-actually-really-snowy Bremen ♥

It was also, I have to admit that one, an excuse to wear Lolita again since I didn't do so in a long while! Though I actually really love this style and I wish I could wear it more often. What keeps me from doing so is just blatantly the fact that I consider it a fashion that needs it's own occasion and most of all friends who dress up with you. Neither are offered to me that often, so I'm thankful for any time I can go and wear my favorite dresses, even if there aren't that many that I can call my own. 

The one I've worn that day is still my latest fad Lolita wise and I think I've fallen in love with mint even more after having gotten this. Dreamy Dollhouse is still one of my favorite prints ever and I was so happy I could finally buy the jumperskirt version of it. I can't even really put my finger on what it is that makes me love it so much but I simply do. I really do love this dress ♥

Now my lovelies, I won't bore you much longer with my love declarations towards clothes, I'll continue by wishing you a wonderful, dreamy, good night and an even more wonderful weekend!

Take care ♥

Neons make my eyes sore ♪

Hellow my little kitsch addicts ♥

Posting so soon again? HELL YES! Only very quickly though because I meant to go to sleep - what - 3 hours ago?

So let's do this! I have something new to show you and this time it's art relates.

Getting curious?
Then have some more ♥

H-o-l-y! I would've NEVER thought I'd actually finish this but somehow I did?
It all just started as a junk sometime last year whilst thinking about how I didn't draw anything just because I wanted to in a long time. Meaning, nothing except for portfolio stuff and things for others.
So this was merely supposed to be something little for me but on its journey it got bigger and bigger. At first I really didn't want it to be so clean and detailed but simply something to fool around with but then my darn perfectionism shimmered through again and took a turn into it all.

Then in early march I picked it up again, did the lines and quickly finished it step by step. Within maybe 2-3 weeks I had it finished and yes, that's pretty quick for me at least because I usually start something and then eventually work on it on and off over months.
Now, here have some progress pictures taken with Instagram ♪

And lastly some close-up progress pictures of this babe ♪

So, how do you like it? ♥
It's a little different from the usual pastel stuff but not less kitschy, perhaps a bit more like some of my older artworks from the Decora times only with an 80s vibe, haha~
Or at least that was a bit I had in mind with this. It's should be funky ♪
I for myself am surprisingly pleased with it and most of all I had lots of fun drawing it - like I didn't have in a long, long time ♥


Happy Easter!
Mio~ ♥

Kitsch && Pastel Overload ♪

It's probably better to apologize beforehand for the massive picture spam that is coming up in this entry and I'm almost positive that your computer is going to hate me for it. Just sometimes, you have so many things to share and you want to share them all at once and simply can't decide which ones to choose. So, sorry if you browser will freeze because of this, I take all the blame~

Now it's been a couple of weeks again and I meant to write about it already some time ago but yes, it was time for the Leipzig Bookfair again! The LBM - as everyone calls it shortly - is certainly one of the nicest conventions of the year and pretty much the only one I visit still. Though this year I've only got there because of a chain of lucky events and only spent a couple of hours in between all those colourful, crazy and lovely people ♥

Nevertheless, it's been wonderful as always and I took the opportunity to go a little bit more wild with my outfit again and wore some of my newest purchases.

Let's go ♥

Cardigan - Paraphrase; Shirt - milklim; Skirt && Ring - 6%DokiDoki; OTKs && Headbow - Angelic Pretty; Bag - DoL; Sneakers - AmiAmi; Accessories - Chocomint, Cute Can Kill, I'm Your Present, offbrand 

Not enough yet? Then have some of my beautiful friend Anni ♥ That day she cosplayed as Kuranosuke from Kuragehime ♪

Lastly, we'been a little bit dorky and kept it on pictures, yes! Actually, there are way more dorky pictures but we also had the idea to make some little gif pictures, so here they are!

And this would be about it ♥
It was a truly wonderful day and it was nice to spend it with some beloved people, even if there weren't that many of my friends there this year. But I also met some very nice people on this little journey and made some helpful experiences for me. The only downside is that - once again - Mimi and I forgot to take pictures together. As always. We don't even know ourselves but we always end up forgetting it, which is a pity.

I sincerely hope your computer is still alive and despite this massive amount of pictures at once that you still enjoyed them a little~

Have a sweet weekend my lovelies ♥

All good things come from above ♪

...in a parcel. From a plane.

In February - or was it January? - a long awaited parcel was handed over to me, containing all the things that dreams are made of and a skirt I have been lusting over for the longest time.

So with the help of a sweet girl I finally had a little dream come true for me and wearing that skirt for the first time was like a revelation. Maybe I'm a little too dramatic about things like this but there is very little in the world that makes me as happy as clothes do and receiving new things in the mail can brighten almost every gloomy day in an instant.

So I guess I just start off showing you this wonderful thing~

Yes, this is the skirt of my dreams, eversince it came out a few years ago. Now 6%DokiDoki made a re-release of it and when it came out it almost looked like I still wouldn't be able to purchase it but in the end it all went good ♥ 

Then next up I got some things from milklim again ♪

A pair of shorts, a dress and another sweatshirt that I just couldn't resist. And really with my big love for sweatshirts right now and the fact that milklim's ones are especially comfy it was a little must for me again. But I also just love these kind of milklims things too much, I really can't help myself.
Though I also love the fact that all of the little moons on the dress and the shorts are embroidered, it's nice to see and feel ♥


Lastly there was a release from Angelic Pretty that was simply made for me, Sugar Hearts ♥
Later they also released a special version JSK of it which I think I might be looking to get in the future but for now I just got the skirt and some accessories along with it, also because I always wanted to have an AP skirt like this ♪

This skirt is just so much love and fun to wear, I tell you! Especially this lovely chiffon that it's made of is really amazing, so soft and lovely ♥
Now I also finally have a lavender skirt to wear with light colours and not with blacks, unlike my milklim one.
And another reason why I love this so much is simply the print - conversation hearts all over the place ♥

Now that's it for today but I'll be back soon I hope with more things to share like drawings and pictures from the Leipzig Bookfair!

See you soon ♥

Mio~
