5 Coords: Larme, Fairy Kei and more~

Another week has gone by and another Update~! 
I have been loving Larme kei more and more the past months and I got this super red pretty coat as a gift from my big sister. I had to incorporate it and I think it went quite well. What do you think? 

What I wore:
Lace Top: Zara
Skirt: Primark
Lace socks: Ebay 
Shoes: Lady comfort (Israeli shop)
Coat: Zara 


I also made the earrings I'm wearing. I made another pair as a gift for Shira.
I paired this with the Vivienne Westwood replica choker. 
More Larme style eccessories I got 2 months ago but just got in the mail are these: 
First is the pearl and big cherry necklace and matching earrings. these were highly popular 1-2 years ago, especially with Swankiss staff and Larme fashion lovers. these were sold at the Swankiss shop but i'm not sure if this was their design or just suited their clothes and style. There are tons of these style around many online shops. I got this set on AliExpress for 7 USD, but I also saw it on Ebay and Polyvore for even less. 
The necklace is great but the earrings are a bit heavy on my ears. So I could only wear them for 3 hours before taking them off :( 

Second, another Cherry earrings! but very small and subtle compared to the first. 
almost not noticeable but super comfortable. From Ebay at only 2 USD, what a bargain! 

Second coord: I made the sweater myself! I almost never work with knitted fabric so it was a big change, but I think I handled it ok. Its designed after OneSpo tops and one pieces and other knits that came out this winter from Japanese brands. 
here is an examples I took inspiration from: 

And mine:
 I was very happy with how it turned out, it's very warm and comfortable! 
Close up: I wore my Princess mimi contacts and false lashes. Earrings are hand made ^^
What I wore: 
Pullover dress: Hand Made
Shoes: Bodyline
Earrings: Hand Made

Third Coord: I found this cute puffy sleeves knit at Alenbi st in Tel Aviv and could not resist, it was only 7 USD. I matched it with a bodycon dress in beige I had.
What I wore: 
Top: Alenbi st - offbrand
Bodycon dress: Daniela 
Shoes: Bodyline
Beret: offbrand

Close up:

Forth coord: During Purim Oded and I went to visit some friends. I took the opportunity to wear all pink and my peignoir which I wear so rarely. I tried to go for a more Fairy Kei kind of look.
What I wore: 
Peignoir: Vinatge
White dress: Forever21
Shoes: Bodyline
Beret: offbrand

 on my hand is a fluffy hair band, I'm so inlove with it *3*

Purim, Lolita lecture and Harucon Con!

What is this "Purim" Holiday you ask? Its basicly the jewish Halloween, but instead of the dead rising its more about old jewish perseverance and getting drunk! and part of the celebration is taking on another persona, aka a Costume. So this Purim was great, I had a booth in a big Anime Convention, went to parties, friends and a Zombie walk~
First, the Zombie walk. Its a yearly event that is exactly what it sounds like, lots of Zombies walking up and down Tel Aviv. I went with guy and we did our make up together. It was my first time dealing with liquid latex and it was loads of fun! 



On the bus on our way there~ 

LoL, i'm the phone obsessed zombie :P

Back at home taking goofy photos with Oded 


Yam!

Harucon
 Harucon is the biggest Anime, Manga and Japan convention in Israel. Its still small compared to other conventions like in the USA or Europe, but its still lots of fun. 
Other than my boot, Regina and I gave a lecture about Lolita fashion ♥

We prepared for a whole month for it, and Its been a while since I gave a lecture to such a big audience so it was very exciting!
Regina did a great job and I was so lucky to work with her~ 
After it was over people asked questions, we showed a few Deerstalkers videos (who kindly gave us their permission) and talked to people who told us they had a good time :)
What I wore: 
Blouse: Ebay
Skirt, wrist cuffs, shoes: Bodyline
Headdress: handmade

I also wore this to a meetup about a week before ^^

With Regina next to the lecture stand



With the Lovely Madeleine and Tom as Kamikaze girls~!  

With Lovely Lolitas I met at the Con

 After that I met with the lovely Georgie at the Princess Dream and Panda Shop booth~ 

Trying to do hair smiles like Georgie, but I suck :(

And with Charlie and Bunny ♥

With Inna and Charlie ♥

and with all together~ ♥♦ 


Lastly but not least - My lovely booth workers and dear friends Noa and Gal ♥♥♥ 

It was a great holiday and I have many more photos i'll save for the next post!

International Lolita Ebook and GLB magazine

I'm really excited to write this post~ two days ago I found out by pure luck, that I was picked and printed among many other beautiful Lolitas in a 1.5 page in the japanese Gothic & Lolita Bible magazine!


A bit of explanation First~ 

Last spring I made a photoshoot with Yaniv Gadi. We got some good photos, and although I later did not like my coord so much, it was fun and enjoyful with Yaniv and Mayumi that also had her photos taken ^^ 
What I wore: 
Bonnet: Hand made
Blouse: Vintage
JSK: Lady Sloth (Indie Brand)
Shoes: Bodyline Rocking Horse


Few months later a leader of the Tea Time organisation, Ai Akizuki, contacted Noga from our Israeli Lolita community, telling us about a project she was making, an international Ebook that will include photos of Lolita from around the world. It sounded great fun, and several of us sent our photos. 
Few weeks later the Ebook was published, and this is how I was presented in it, along with others :)



About a  month later Ai Akizuki hosted a party to celebrate the Ebook publish:






After that, she was contacted with the Japanese GLB magazine to make an article about it. 

A little about GLB:
The Japanese Gothic & Lolita Bible is a magazine that was born 15 years ago from another very popular Fashion magazine called Kera. GLB cemented the ideas and esthetics of Lolita fashion, and showed the face of the fashion to all in a marvelous quality colored Mook (Magazine-book).
It presented the brands, the Idols and more, showing how the fashion looks on the streets as well, and well earned it's title of actual "Bible" to Lolitas around the world.

I didn't know about the collaboration of Ai's book with GLB magazine, so when I saw on facebook that someone posted a scan from Vol 59, showing my picture among others with an Israeli flag, I was ecstatic! 
 GLB chose a few girls from the entire Ebook to present in a full page, along with an article about a Tea party hosted in Mexico.



My picture is pretty small, but this still makes me soooo sooo happy! 
the thought that many japanese fashion lovers will see my (tiny) face is amazing. 
they gave me a title theme of "The Keeper of Time" X3 I love it~ 


And that's it! I am now hoping one of my friends who are living/visiting Japan will get me that copy of the magazine, Vol 59, to join my small collection of GLB.

I'm feeling very lucky and blessed ^^ even though its not that big of a thing~ 
Thanks for reading, Lots of Luv ♥
