Angelpolis first official meet up

Karen, Tamie, Uzuki and me

MY CO-ORDINATE
JSK: Metamorphose Teddy Bear Print
Cutsew: Angelic Pretty
Socks: Secret Shop
Shoes: DreamV

After 3 years into the lolita fashion, finally i have a lolita circle ^^.

Even though I've known about Tamie a year ago through facebook, we never actually talked , until I saw her again at Cos&Effect - an anime convention- this year. I'm usually a very shy person to start a conversation with someone im not familiar with, to my surprise it was super easy to talk to her :D.
And after that Angelpolis was formed

For our first official meet up, we wanted to keep it small since Tamie was the only one with a car and our destination is very far out of the main city. We had afternoon tea at this lovely teahouse/boutique place.


I think this is the furthest I've traveled since I lived in Vancouver haha orz..
We even had our own little room


The food was all homemade and very fresh <3. Afternoon tea for 2 was only $24 (drink not included), super cheap ^o^b. Though it wasn't exactly the best i've tasted , I would come again for the atmosphere. 

Top : Scones + fresh fruit+ devonshire cream and jam
Middle: Egg Croissant, quiche, cucumber sandwich and tuna sald sandwich
Bottom: Chocolate cake, lemon tart, macaron, meringue cookie


I had London Fog. First time having sugar cubes <3


The handle is cute
When confronted with pretty food display and room, picture taking is needed XD

Black Candles <3. Too bad they close at 4:30pm, these would be so lovely lit up at night 


After eating we explored around the teahouse.
Macarons towers X)

There's a garden in the back of the place, I think next time I visit here we would definitely have tea in the garden.

Leaving the teahouse, we took a walk through the town. It's truly a historical town, fresh air, quiet street and antique looking stores/houses. I just love it there, wouldnt mind living there when I retired haha

Everything in the store is made from cranberries
Historical painting of BC history
Super cool or what?
Its a real house, with really unique fence OwO

It was the first time I've been out in lolita that everyone I encountered had nothing but positive comments toward me. The people in this small town are so nice and accepting of alternative fashion , it made me really happy and proud of my style. Not just older people, even the teenagers were excited to see us as well and a lot asked for photos together XD

Candy Lights
Too bad it was closed :(
Train station
I wanna see the interior but it was cloded too ;(



Concluded our fun day, we went to Nikkoffee for light dinner and chilled there for quite a while.

Matcha milk tea, served in a beer mug LOL

Overall I had a great time that day. I was pretty nervous at first since I knew everyone before but never spoke to them, but they turned out to be all very nice and easy to talk to. This had to be the best lolita meetup I've been to so far.
                                     
Little Twin Stars

 Finally I want to share some of the current songs in my playlists . Right now I'm getting into JuJu, she has such an unique and soothing voice that goes perfectly well with her songs. It's surprising to see she's not getting enough attention as some other big artists :/

Dantalia no Shoka ending song - 「yes, prisoner」- maRIONnetTe

This anime has Baby, the Stars Shine Bright to designs the character's outfit :). It's a dark fantasy shoujo anime, totally my taste X)b


So hard to find a HD version as youtube keeps removing the vid :(
Very emotional PV and song

Mononoke ending song, the song that introduced me to JuJu ^^

Aoi no Exorcist Ending song

Bye now ~

21 Birthday


So I turned 21st last month :D . It's a bit sad though, one year older *sigh*.

I kind of planned everything last minute, only started inviting people 2 weeks prior to the actual date. Reason being I had no idea where to hold the party at, and in the end I ended up having it at my workplace Adonia teahouse ^^''.

It's a bit like a tradition, I always have a tea party for my birthday :). This year is a bit different, I don't have 20+ guests anymore, since I tried to keep the attendants to only close friends/people I actually talk to often.

I had intended to wake up early that day to go to my hair dresser - also my friend, Viki's salon to get my oil treatment done, but no alarm had to screw up and I ended up waking up at 10 instead of 8:30 =_=. Though it makes sense may be I turned it off half asleep, I did stay up til 5am doing my nails orz

Eventually i managed to get my hair done and everything and make it out to my party , only half an hour late ... guys i'm sorry DX. Now you all know i'm a terrible person at being on time ...

The first location was Nikkoffee, it's a maid cafe . The interior is really cute and French looking but the food is only so so. And it's always empty when I go there, wonder how do they even manage it .__.''



We had some late lunch there , here're some of the food ^^~

 
My sister, Sharon, also wear cream color outfit that day <3

Me and my best friend, Galina


It's a good thing that the cafe was empty that day as well, so we werent bothering anyone with our photo taking X)

DreamV Heels
Notice the note says ''Do not Touch'' LOL

Afterward we had some spare time before our reservation at Adonia, so we headed to Parker place for some Purikura. They have the big eye machine there haha.

Only the girls participated of course :D.


I chose to have reservation at 4:30 pm since Adonia can be very busy on a weekend, and I dont want too much attention + bother other customers. Here's how my workplace look like, pretty isnt it? We serve afternoon tea here


My boss gave me this tea cup as a present, along with a couple accessories . She's so nice QwQ <3<3

Our famous scones *yum*

I did my own nails ^^~. Do you like it?
 
We did take a few group shots but all of them turned out horrible, each photo at least 1 of us moved or blurry D; . So sorry i cant upload them here for you guys :(


Here's my most favorite present I received, my good friend Kou (who refuses to be pictured) made the box to match with my outfit <3.  Insides are Urban Decay eyelash primer, Nars Super Orgasm blush (lol) and L'oreal hair mask. I wanted those cosmetic lonnnngggg time ago but they are a bit pricey, I was surprised she got me all that considering she's still in school and doesnt have a job QAQ. Such a nice friend she is .

If you follow my Deviantart, she also photographed some of my works there :D

Cream and Gold <3<3<3
