Pink Biscuit

My Emily Temple Cute biscuit JSK arrived this week and the dress is super cute. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)♫ I don't regret swapping the ivory for the pink, because pink suits into my wardrobe a lot better.

Slapped together an experimental coord: everything ETC, except the bag~

I rarely see any photos of the biscuit dress in pink. I only see it in the ivory and blue colour. So I'm pretty stoked to wear this dress. Although the cutting at the bust of my ivory dress was a bit nicer, I'm not going to mind it.

I made a hair bow out of my hair~~or maybe they are cat ears?


Thanks for visiting!!! (´ ▽`).。o♡

Gentleman's Lady

GREETINGS FRIENDS. Gosh I haven't used that phrase for such a long time.

I just want to announce that my studying habits are worse than ever, and also that I love pistachio and raspberry macarons. Hah--!!

I saw that one of my favourite luxury brands, Emily Temple Cute, is releasing a 15th anniversary long jacket. Three words: IT LOOKS DIVINE and I WANT IT. (Okay, so six words.)


UGH THE INSIDE OF THIS JACKET IS THE DAPPER GENTLEMAN RABBIT PRINT. A-AND THAT BISCUIT BUTTON!!! So lovely!!!

But, as usual, reality likes to crush my dreams. This jacket is over $800CAD!!!! So expensive!!!

Ahem, so, Prince Joshua, would you mind purchasing this for me please? Hahaha... /shot/

...That feels good.

It's been a long time since I last got shot...

I feel like I've been spending too much time worrying about what others think and say about me, that I forgot what it truly means to be in touch with myself and my own feelings. And that's a grand shame, because I used to be a rebellious girl who could easily say "F--- YOU!" to anyone who put me down. I actually stood up for myself and shrugged off people who chose to put me down. I need to get back into that mindset, only in a more mature way.

I'm an artist at heart and no matter what I am a writer.


"If you are born an artist, you have no choice but to fight to stay an artist." - Lana Del Rey


... I couldn't agree with that more.

Biscuit Bag

The only package that has arrived in a while has been the Swimmer biscuit bag. I jumped onto the bandwagon for this popular bag that a lot of lolita seem to own. Only, I chose to get it in the hand-bag style as opposed to shoulder bag because the strap on the shoulder bag is flimsy and awkward to pose with. I don't mind having to hold a bag, I think it's quite elegant. 

Biscuit-y overload~

Love the attention to detail. 

I really have to stop buying these cookie/biscuit related goodies. I don't even really like biscuits, but these designs are too cute to resist. I also noticed the Japanese brands love to use French words in their pieces.  It's quite amusing. I should create some image print with random French words too, that would be cute. YuShan keeps telling me to draw again, but I just don't know about it ~

THANKS FOR WATCHING!

ETC Love: Biscuit & Macaron!

Exciting news! In this lovely fall of 2012, I have obtained two more Emily Temple Cute dresses to join my darling closet~~ The iconic Biscuit JSK, and the fan-favourite Macaron JSK!! I am very lucky to be having these dresses arrive to me, and they came attached with very hefty price... but worth it to pay, as long as I get to wear them happily. *^^*

Lovely biscuit JSK in ivory~~

Macaron JSK in brown!!!

What a lovely pattern...~

I cannot wait until both dresses arrive so that I may inspect them more carefully. They should be arriving either this week or early next week!

Thanks for visiting~~!*^^*

ETC Plushie Print

One of my favourite dresses from Emily Temple Cute is the "Plushie Print", more popularly known as the "Chocolate and Toys" JSK. I was lucky enough to get my hands on the colour way I wanted, too: pink! (Though it also comes in saxon blue.)

The dress is a dusty pink with an adorable border print of stuffed animals, polka-dots and chocolate. The shoulder straps and bows are made of velvet, adding a soft touch to the dress. A subtle border of clovers, spades, hearts and diamonds lead down the dress into the print.

My beloved shopping service was able to find the socks to match the dress as well! They are going to arrive to me soon~~ They are lovely over-the-knee socks with a matching chocolate pattern and bows. I cannot wait for them to arrive. They will arrive along with my newly won biscuit dress!

Since there are not many images of Emily Temple dresses, I just thought I will share mine. =) It really is a lovely dress so for anyone thinking about getting this JSK (or the OP) I highly recommend they do, because it's very versatile~~! ♥

Some gals prefer their dresses to have lining, but ETC dresses tend not to have this. I don't think it should be much of a problem when wearing a light petticoat and a sweater underneath, though!

However, ETC sizing tends to run smaller than other brands. There *is* back shirring, but it doesn't give much extra. Maybe only stretches to about 36" bust, I'm guessing..? I'm around 32-34" bust, so it's still quite roomy for me. XD /sob

Now, if only I could find some of the nice ETC turtleneck sweaters I saw on the hello lace page...

THANKS FOR WATCHING!
