Saturday Shoe Shopping Dx

Never have I enjoyed shoe shopping. I mean, I've always LOVED having a new pair of shoes (I'd basically sleep in them when I was little, or put them on first thing in the morning), but shopping for them was always hell. I didn't like most of them, they were all boring. I'd always gravitate to the hot pink ankle boots or insane platform sandals that were always too big for me, but I begged for anyway. I still think most general shoe stores are boring, but luckily we still have ONLINE SHOPS! They don't make deciding on a new pair much easier though..
I've been drooling over lolita shoes for a while now, and I finally want to make up my mind as to which ones I want to save some money for. I just can't decide! At first the pink ones with the bows were on the top of my list, but now I also really like the black platform ones without the bows. They'd also go with more outfits, BUT their platform is even higher *_* First world problems, I know. This is basically one of those things I worry about when I wake up at 6 am and sip my first cup of green tea of the day.
sparkle sparkle magical shoes!
I could also get the boots, since summer will soon be over and I never had boots/decent fall/winter shoes before. Not sure if you can call platform lolita boots decent though hehe n.n Which ones are your favorite? Do you have any other awesome pairs/online shops to share with me (and make it even more difficult to decide)?

DIY Galore!

Lately I've been on a crafting roll. I found I get so much more satisfaction out of making and then wearing my own jewellery/accessories rather than just buying it in a store. It's also just a really nice break from the continuous school work. It really relaxes me, and you get something awesome out of it at the end! (if all goes right..)

These are a couple of things I've made last weekend:
Big pink lolita headbow!

Sparkly donut charm
Obviously, it's all very lolita-ish! Another great break from work for me these days is watching videos of lolita girls on youtube, talking about their outfits, make-up, toy collections or con adventures. It makes me so happy and it's so inspiring! Anyway, here's a little list of diy lolita tutorials, and I'm planning on doing all of them!

Kayzeekay has an awesome blog with some super cute tutorials! 
I definitely want to try these two.





I used this Lolita Bow Tutorial for the one I made, and I definitely want to make many more now! It's super easy and looks super cute!

Sweetorials on Youtube also has some of the greatest tutorials!

Do you feel like crafting something cute now too?
I sure hope so! Have fun c:
