Angelic Pretty Otome Tutu Doll - A photoshoot by the lake (again)!

Hi everybody! I hope everyone is enjoying the first day of Spring!
It has still been quite cold these past few weeks here in Switzerland, but finally we're getting some sun and a warmer weather! I really can't wait for Summer!

Anyway, some weeks ago I fell head over heels in love with an Angelic Pretty dress: the Otome Tutu Doll JSK in pink (but honestly... that name... hahaha). I immediately contacted Tenshi Shop to get it for me, as I knew I'd barely have any chance to get it online as it was planned to be very popular.
As usual, Tenshi Shop did an amazing job and got everything I wanted: the pink JSK and a cute matching ribbon (which is actually not matching the dress at all... but it's cute and I'll wear it anyway so that's fine!)

Isn't that dress gorgeous?!

The "matching" ribbon!

I quickly received the dress and let me tell you: it is amazingly gorgeous! I could totally get married in that dress! I love the different layers of chiffon and satin, the velvet ribbons and the cut which is really elegant! I was already thinkng about how to wear it when I suddenly found a cute pullover that would perfectly go with it at a random shop here called Zebra (that pullover has such a larme kei feeling!)

Also, on one of the French-speaking Lolita group I follow on Facebook, the admin suggested a theme of the month challenge, and that theme was "Spring" so I was also inspired by it. I wanted my outfit to have flowers, but in a discreet way, to show that winter isn't that far yet.

This brooch is a gift rom my Japanese relatives ♥ it matches the dress so perfectly!

As I had some days off for Easter and just had bought a new camera, I thought "why not go outside and take some lovely pictures by the lake?"
I hired my mom as my photographer and there we went! On the way, many people in cars honked at me... As it is a tradition here when people are getting married, I think they thought I was a bride? Haha. I could have been. I agreed with my mom that if someone was asking anything, we'd reply it's my wedding to avoid long explanations about what Lolita fashion actually is. XD


I really like when my mom takes pictures of me. I don't have much self-confidence actually, but I always find myself pretty on pictures she takes. She says it's because she is taking them with the eyes of love, because for her I am the most precious person of her life. How sweet is that?






This is my favourite picture of the day! ♥

If you read my blog, maybe you noticed I already had pictures taken at that spot (you can read about it here)! I think it's a great place, because it's quiet and you have the city and the moutains in the background!

  2. My Mum would definitely agree with your Mum on the photos. Her theory is that you look best on pictures taken by someone you know and love because: a) you're more comfortable around them; and b) you're not just a photography subject to them either. I'm not sure if I agree 100%, from my experience my favourite photos of me have almost exclusively been taken by people who have at least a rudimentary understanding or natural eye for photography (lighting, composition etc.), but I do agree that when it's someone dear to me taking photos, I am a lot more relaxed.
    That JSK looks far, far more beautiful on you than any stock photo could ever show it and the photoshoot is beautiful. And how well does that pullover match?! Honestly, I never found brand items matching each other this well, my best colour matches are always found amongst offbrand pieces :P You look stunning!
