Anonymous asked: Hello, how is your day going? ^_^ I was just wondering if you have ever seen AP's Holy Lantern *skirt* anywhere? Like someone wearing it, online, closet child, mbok, yahoo, etc... Because honestly I have never seen it anywhere since it was sold. Just curious, not looking to buy it but it just seems to have vanished! Thanks xxxx

Hello, it’s going well thanks. ^^ I hope your day is going well too! That’s weird, but you’re right about Holy Lantern. I haven’t seen it around much either. I seem to remember seeing an ivory one once a while back, but I can’t for the life of me remember where. I wonder where they’ve all gone. :/

For any Disney fans out there, I will be at Disney Sea tomorrow. They have cute items such as this Beauty and the Beast cup and teapot. ^^ I’m unsure of prices in advance, but if anyone is interested in getting something, please let me know!

Angelic Pretty has restocked their Cosmic series in-store, so if you’d rather get something direct rather than waiting until August/September just let me know. (^_^)

Angelic Pretty have restocked some Romantic Rose Letter OPs if you want one, but better say soon because they’re getting snapped up quickly. They had mint and one other colourway left in store. I can’t remember which, but it wasn’t blue, so probably...

Anonymous asked: Do you wear lolita to releases or do you wear armour? :p also I was wondering if you knew how many of each piece Angelic Pretty and Baby release? Like just a specific cut and colour not all of the items in a series... Say you were looking exclusively for Vampire forest navy skirt or lavender sweetie violet skirt - how many of those were released in all stores + online? Do you have any idea? Does it depend on the series? Have a lovely day xxx

Haha, some of the outfits have so many layers it feels like armour at times. ;) If I know it’s going to be bad though (e.g. CC), I go in the clothes that can take a beating. No point in risking my preciouses!

Ack, it’s really hard to say. I reckon sometimes it will change depending on what they expect the customer demand to be. However, at a guess, I’d say each store carries about 15 - 25 of one cut/colour at initial release. Usually, if you’re not in the top 20 you can pretty much kiss chances of getting the most popular item goodbye.

Online I have absolutely no idea.

Hope you have a lovely day too! :D

Anonymous asked: Hi. I am from Germany and at the moment staying in Tokyo for holidays. I will stay for two weeks. Do you know anything about special events during this time? I already know about the Atelier Pierrot event. Are there maybe some sales or giveaways? Thanks Pocketdragon

Hello! ^^ Hope you’re enjoying Tokyo so far.

Hmm, let’s see. There will be a special appearance and presentation by the designer of Triple Fortune at Marui One Annex in Shinjuku on the 25th from 1pm. You can reserve some gorgeous items in advance (check out the Triple Fortune twitter for more info on the clothes).

There will also be a musical/opera by THEATER Rrose Sélavy. I don’t know much about them myself, but you need to buy tickets in advance. Info is here - http://www.rrose-selavy.net/

At Marui One Annex they also do shoots for the Kera magazine every month. I don’t know the exact dates this time round, but if you talk to the staff you can find out. On that date/time, simply show up in a gorgeous lolita coord, fill in a form and pose for the camera (it’s usually on the 6th floor). If you are chosen, your photo will be published in Kera magazine. Even if you’re not chosen, you’ll receive a ticket and can get your printed photo around one month later for free I think. If you have a friend in Japan or want to use a service, they should be able to pick it up for you. :)

Oh, there’s also currently a 70% off sale at Closet Child, but that’s mainly for their stuff that isn’t selling well. 

Alice and the Pirates is doing a novelty giveaway of a cute usakumya purse/plush which has a squeaker. xD You have to spend over 35,000 yen in-store.

That’s all I can think of right now. ;)
