March and April Outfits

As always, things are pretty hectic in my life, but I still manage to find time to dress up a couple of times a month. I got a new wig to try out, and now that the weather is getting a little warmer it's not necessary to wear quite as many layers.

And a few more...

The first weekend of March, there was a big fashion show event further north that I ended up helping out with--I assisted the BABY shop staff with their booth along with a good friend of mine. It was hard work, but also a lot of fun. I was pretty unhappy with my wig that day, and I forgot to pack contact lenses, but I love the skirt so much that it was okay.

Some friends of mine wanted to have a tea party at a favorite tea shop of theirs, so my husband and I drove up to hang out with them. It was a pretty small group, but the food was great. I wore the new wig for the first time--I'm still not sure how I feel about the bangs, but I think it's pretty cute with a bonnet.

For the March swap meet, I wanted to try wearing the new wig again, so my other bonnet outfit was the logical choice.  I really love this outfit a lot, but still deciding if I like the bangs.

I love how the wig styling turned out for this outfit! We had a local social meetup at a cafe downtown, but it ended up being a bit of a bust because there was live music and it was too loud to hear. I also got my first flat tire on the way down, so I was an hour late! We ended up ditching the coffee shop and hanging out outside most of the evening, but it was still a lot of fun.

And last is a pretty casual outfit for the April swap meet. I also dressed up for Anime Conji, but it was basically a rehash of the outfit for the tea party (End of Immortal Eden) with a different wig so I didn't think it was worth posting twice. We did a panel for the con on Lolita Fashion 101--all the basics for beginners! We got kind of a late start, but by about halfway we had a pretty decent crowd, and ended up getting lots of questions afterwards, so I figure that was a success!
