♥ Lolita Lifestyle Challenge - Day 4! ♥ ~ Cute Lolita Hairstyles~




I think that there are a lot of lolitas out there who fall into a rut where their hair is concerned; I know that both of us tend to! I personally am not very good with my hair - and am definitely guilty of going days without brushing it because I'm so lazy - even though I have so much of it! I know how to plait, and I know how to put my hair into a pony tail, and that's about as far as I'm prepared to go - and I'm always too afraid of messing up wigs to go too far with them!

I'm going to drop a few inspirational lolita pictures with cute hair/wigs and then drop a few YouTube channels with tutorials on them here!


I really like how the first girl doesn't have a fringe but her hair is still classy and pretty; Haz's hair is a little too fine to hold a fringe in properly and to be honest I am much too scatter-brained to keep a fringe in good order; it's something I've attempted a few times but have never been successful with! Her hair seems to be in tiny little buns beneath the two hairclips; it's cute and faintly anime-ish without being weeby! The second hairstyle is one I've always wanted to try but been afraid it would look a little silly; this absolutely inspires me to try it out!

Some of my favourite hairstyles are vintage inspired; I love rockabilly and 50s pin-up fashion and I love their hair; a YouTube channel we follow that posts a lot of those is Cherry Dollface. Here's a tutorial of hers for a vintage style bouffant with a bow that I think would be adorable with the right retro-inspired coordinate!


One of Haz's favourite YouTube channels to look at for make-up and life inspiration is Kawaii Pateen, a Japan-based YouTube channel that often has special videos by Japanese fashion celebrities! You might have seen some of their videos with Misako Aoki. Here's a video that they made called "2 Kawaii CHILDISH FAIRY Hairstyles!" I think the first hairstyle with the powder puffs is really cute (and would be cute even replaced with bows or something else of the kind!


I hope this post gave you a few cute ideas about hairstyling yourself! I plan on trying these out as soon as I can; we're away right now so it's a bit difficult to take photos, but I'm excited especially to try out the vintage style bouffant!

❤ ❤ Instagram Round Up! ❤ ❤

Another month, another Instagram roundup! To be perfectly honest, with the end of college and the sudden onset of the summer holidays and with lots of events coming up, we haven't really had time to go on any adventures! However, being cooped up has lead to us having to find creative ways to spend our energy! And spending a whole ton of money . . . oops! (。◕‿◕。) (A direct quote from Haz: "I can't wait to get back to college so I won't be addicted to eBay anymore!")


First: a little eBay purchase package! We got some glue and jump rings for our business, and then some general cute stuff for our bags! The pens turned out to be very pretty to write with, but ran out almost immediately, which was super sad! Our lovely friend Billie also came over for a day, which was fab!


We attempted to play Disney Trivial Pursuit with Billie, but it did not go to plan! Also, whilst we were gone, Haz turned twenty! I guess we can't call ourselves "teenage lolitas" anymore! :c


We went out to celebrate Billie and Haz's birthday because they only had a day between! We got ice cream sundaes from Baskin Robbins (Nat's had sprinkles and tiny pastel sugar stars in!), shopped around at a few charity shops and altogether had a lovely time! Nat even found these cute Cardcaptor Sakura cards in one of the charity shops for £1.25, which was a super good deal! 


Some portrait shots from that day! Nat wearing a cute seifuku outfit and Cute Can Kill accessories, staringly lovingly at the manga and cards we bought . . . And Haz looking super cute in a flower crown and floral dress, as always! 


Billie and Nat did an art trade and we got this cute little picture of us as lolitas! We've also started buying these Barbie kinder eggs on our late night walks, although we're getting a lot of doubles . . . (๏ㅂ๏)


Another little eBay purchase package! Cat tights and a Sailor Moon necklace, which we can't wait to put together outfits with! We also discovered the "joys" of loom bands, and now we can't stop - Haz likes the fishtail ones best!


A sneak peek at some of the goodies that are hopefully going to be popping up in our online shop very soon! We also treated ourselves to a little pamper session before a local lolita meet, which included Nat trying out Nat's first ever face mask (Nat had a berry one and Haz had a chocolate one; Haz's smelt delicious!). We also picked up these "Dolly's Mixtures" shower gels, which smell super divine and were definitely worth the £1!


A little selfie from the meet! We were helping out at a local festival on a stall making poppies; thus explaining our button-and-tissue-paper crowns! 

That's all for now; we're hoping we'll have some stuff to blog about soon! We're attending a friend's wedding next week and hoping to take some little day trips out before college starts again, so stay tuned for updates with regards to those! What have you been up to recently? 

✿Love,✿
