Angelic Pretty: Elisabeth Unicorn

This weekend Angelic Pretty is releasing Elisabeth Unicorn, yet an other pony print that is think has a really classic look. The colorways are interesting and the different colorways look really good. I think this is a gorgeous print and I wish anyone that's going to try and get it good luck! If my economy was a bit better I would go into the fight too. I think this will be gone in seconds.

Here is some advice on how to buy from Angelic Pretty:

Lolita Lesson #1: what is lolita?

Lolita is a fashion style and subculture that started in Japan that started late 70s. The style is inspired by Victorian children and doll clothing. The style is classy, stylish and cute. Lolita is not meant to be sexy and has nothing to do with Vladimir Nabokov's book 'Lolita'. The basic Lolita shape is covered and classic on the top and with a puffy knee length skirt. Lolita fashion has changed a lot since its start and developed into a world wide subculture!

Skirts got bigger and more cupcake shaped, square headdresses changed into headbows. Prints got more and more detailed. Simple knee-socks changed into detailed print stockings. I will make a series of guides about Lolita fashion so check back here!

There is much to learn about the basics of Lolita I thought I would leave you with some great videos about Lolita to watch!

Feature: Deerstalker Pictures 2

What is Deerstalker Pictures 2? Good question! Its a YouTube channel that makes videos inspired by kawaii culture, ranging from funny skits to educational videos. The videos are made by Technotropism (Director) and Vysanthe (Cinematographer). Here's one of their videos:

Most Lolitas I know watch their videos and I think they have had a positive effect on the international Lolita community. They spend so much time making them and they are really good at it. They have started a Patreon and I think its a great idea, I personally at least want them to keep making videos. They give Lolita fashion a good image and if they get enough they will make a documentary, I for one really want that! So please support them, making videos takes a lot of time and money, even $1 makes a big difference if everyone gives that much. Don't you have that much to spare to get great content related to Lolita and kawaii culture? If you don't then share so that maybe someone else will contribute!

Here is a video where they talk about their Patreon:
