Hot Topics in the Lolita Blogosphere

Lolita fashion finds a place in CNN? Is it that mainstream yet? Oh wait, it’s on a geeky CNN blog. (pssst, see the EGL discussion here)
See Baby Stars / AaTP's Autumn / Winter fashion show along with their new Blythe collaboration
Sandorizu, a well established illustrator, has art that uses lolita-esque sillhoultes. If you like art, then you should check the artist’s work out.
Yuko Ashizawa, designer of Atelier-Pierrot will be at PMX this year
Did you know Meta has brand characters? Meet Punky Bear and Rabbie-Chang (her wallpapers are super cute) if you haven’t already.

Brand Releases

Meta

Teddy Cloak - Leopard spots aren’t used a lot in Lolita but when they are, Meta knows how to do it right. Not to much, just a flash in the lining, but sassy. ( Also available in Black with Black trim and Red with Black trim )
Gobelins Print Velour Frill Pinafore Dress - I’d like to see this worn before I form an opinion. I have the feeling it will look better with a full Cord rather than on the rack.
Gobelins Print Ribbon Pinafore Dress - This dress is lovely. Odd, but lovely.
New Collection! Rose Letter (This series will not be available for reserve. It will soon be in stock. This collection is also offered in Black and Light Brown ) I am so excited for this series!
Dolly Bustle Ribbon Coat - Available in Black, Dusty Pink, and Black

Tutorial of the Week

Gothic Lolita Makeup Video. We’ve often seen many videos for sweet makeup but not a lot of gothic ones so here is one of my favorites from Michelle Phan. Unfortunately, it’s titled “Seductive Vampire” but if you skip the fangs and the contacts, this is actually a very pretty gothic look.
