November 2020

When a second lockdown was announced here in the UK, my girlfriend and I decided it would be best for us to spend this one together. I'd been planning to visit her soon anyway, but now suddenly the date was moved forward and I'd be staying for at least a month, so I had to pack carefully.

I had two main things in mind when packing my lolita.

1) I wanted all my items to be comfortable enough to lounge in. Every item I packed (lolita and non lolita included) had to double as loungewear. Comfort is key!

2) I wanted all my items to match, so I had to choose a cohesive colour scheme. I decided on pink x black x white.

Although skirts would have added more versatility to my wardrobe, I chose all dresses because I find them the most comfortable. My heart apron I brought so I could twin with my girlfriend at some point and also it adds interest to all my main pieces. As I had already decided to bring my RRM T-shirt and parka as loungewear, I figured I could also experiment with layerying these with my main pieces.
