Lolita Blogpost Roundup: July 2019

We are now officially, properly into the the latter half of 2019. And of course, the lolita bloggers of the world still keep producing awesome content! Here are some of my faves from the last month ^__^


Removing shadows in Photoshop from RuffleCloud's Adventures
First up we have a handy little tutorial on how to fix sunny day photos up in PS. With photos being such a big thing in our subculture, it's always handy to know how to fix things manually. I love PS ^__^

Eternal Twilight (Hellocon 2018) Trip Report: Day 2 from Rose Sanctuary
I'm a broken record, I know, but I always get a kick out of reading other people's event reports!

The (Controversial) History Of “Bittersweet Lolita” from Crimson Reflections
Now this was an absolutely fascinating read! I'm not even going to attempt a summary except to say that the person who coined the term "bittersweet" meant something quite different than most of us do when we use the term today.

Is Angelic Pretty Just Copying Meta? Conspiracy Theory from Cupcakes and Unicorns
I got some chuckles out of this post, but it is also a very interesting look into how themes get re-used a lot in lolita, and how innovation doesn't necessarily come from where we think it does.

Angelic Pretty Tea Party 2019 Outfit from Lolita Wonderland
I love it when inactive bloggers come back to their blogs, especially when it's with pretty flatlays ^__^

Why gyaru died and lolita lives from Miss Filigree
This is a topic I've never given any thought to, but was nevertheless fascinated to read all about!

Kawaii Harajuku Crepes (Japanese Street Food Recipe) | Japanese Cooking Video from Create Eat Happy :)
Not a lolita specific post, but for me at least cute crepes are very strongly associated with the fashion, and it's cool to see how to make your own!

What was your favourite blog post this past month? Drop a link in the comments!

  1. Pretty much all of those are posts that I've enjoyed immensely this past month. Sadly, it is good 2 hours until lunch over here and even thinking about Harajuku crepes gets me hungry, so I'll try to distract myself for now.

    1. I never apologies for talking about food at bad times, but I do hope you have a nice lunch ^__^
