Angelic Pretty Paris 1st Anniversary tea party! ♥

Back in July, many fellow lolitas gathered to celebrate Angelic Pretty Paris 1st anniversary!
The tea party took place in the marvelous Salon Pompadour at Le Meurice, a palace right in front of the Tuileries garden. Once again, I was lucky enough to be part of the fashion show and this year, the special guest was Tina Tamashiro!

I was so excited to see her! I've always loved the photo shoots featured she does with Angelic Pretty for Spoon and I have to say, she makes me want to have my hair cut in a short bob sometimes...
(it's not going to happen anyway)

All the selected models had to meet a the hotel at 12:00 for the fittings and rehearsals.
Soon, we were all backstage sitting around a table with Maki checking for everyone's fashion show outfits and I discovered I had to wear two different outfits! YES TWO.
First one was Suya Suya Toys and the second one was Angel Scallop!
Both weren't announced yet at that time, so exciting!~
Also, I was quite excited to be carrying the Dreamy Lyrical Bunny bag cause it's way too cute (and way to heavy BUT WAY TOO CUTE)



I'm so happy I got to wear two different outfits for this fashion show! 
It was the first time I had to change backstage during the fashion show! You know, during formula 1 races, when all the team quickly changes the  tires? 
I felt like I was one of those cars but it was really fun!



When we ended the fashion show, we took a few pictures backstage and then everyone got changed into their own outfits and got back into the main salon!


I was so happy to be modeling with Camélia, Marine and Pom once again! ♥
Once I got changed into my own outfit, I finally joined the party in the other room 
and sat with lovely friends, right between Rosalynn and Roxane and just in time for the food ♥ 






Favorite tea party activity, taking pictures of those gorgeous ceilings!


The lovely staff and designers talked a bit about the fashion show and the one year anniversary of the Parisian shop! Sometimes I still can't believe it's here ♥



MILA FOR PRESIDENT 
"Misty Sky and lucky packs for all!!" 


We also got a Q&A with Tina Tamashiro and it was pretty interesting!
She was honestly too cute to be true ♥ 



The food was delicious! We had different mignardises, scones with cream, jam and honey (ok just something I want to say about the honey, this one was called Miel Béton which means honey concrete and it was quite funny because it was rather sturdy) aaand a such a delicious cake!



Some wild stroopwafel appeared (thanks Rosalynn ♥)




Hello cutie ♥

Soon, it was already time for the raffle and the best outfit. 
As usual, I didn't won anything at the raffle but I wasn't sad at all...
Consolation prize was a set of clearfiles and I LOVE clearfiles yes ♥ 

Sadly, once the raffle ended, it was already time to say goodbye...
But before leaving the salon, we took a group picture and believe me, it wasn't the easiest thing to do! (Five points if you find me, I'm somewhere hidden behind a headpiece)


*******




We tried to take some pictures in the hotel lobby but the staff asked us to leave, 
maybe because the café area was quite crowded? Or because we were quite embarrassing, I guess we'll never know... Anyway, we decided to hang in front of the hotel for a while!





Beautiful people ♥ and more beautiful people ♥ 

        




     


Can we take just one moment to appreciate Tamara's Kate Spade bag? 
I mean, a pastel dinosaur! I love this collection so much, even if my favorite is the pink T-rex, 
this one is cuteness overload ♥ 


I don't even have outfit pictures of the friends I sat with, shame on me...
Ooh and I almost forgot, here is a gif with the lovelies Emilie and Rosalynn ♥
We tried to make hearts with our hands, we tried... 


*******

After hanging around the hotel of a bit, we decided to go for a Starbucks and other fellow lolitas tagged along, like the year before! It was nice to get to spend some more time together (and a matcha latte frappuchino was much needed) ~ 

Roxane and I also stopped by the shop one last time and took a few pictures because our shop girls are adorable (sadly, Marine wasn't there) ♥ 









Guess we can't be serious for too long...



See you soon and 
take care until next time ♥

JAPAN EXPO 2017 ♥

After attending the con once in 2012, I've never came back to Japan Expo
but that's not the case anymore cause this year I've been there on saturday with Roxane ♥

We decided to brave the heat and weeb around the con wearing lolita.
Surprisingly, we didn't die from the heat!

Oh and, this is picture heavy !

We arrived a bit later that expected because Parisian transportation is always on point but we didn't loose that much time in the end! It's really crazy to see so many people in the same place...






The video game area was so crowded we decided to walk by quickly and go back later but as we went on with everything we kinda forgot about it... 





Vlogging~ 
*******











The Sanrio booth was like a cute garden with (fake) cherry trees, 
they had those cute paper things we could write some wishes on and it looked so lovely!


And look at this door ♥



This thing was just to cute to be true ; v ; 

And now, let's talk about some serious business...





For obvious reasons, my favorite part was the Sailor Moon booth! We had to join a queue to enter cause it was a bit crowded but it was all pretty, pink and full of make-up. We even got a matching temporary tattoo !!




Here is mine! I couldn't keep it long cause I was modeling for AP's fashion show the next day but I can assure you I enjoyed it for the few hours I had it ♥




"Cousins"














**Fangirl squeals** We met our 2d husbando
I stole this picture from Roxane's intagram

Next booth was...





Evangelion Store but I was a bit disappointed by the selection they had.
I was expecting more collectibles and stuff, but it was cool anyway!

*******






On the Moshi Moshi Nippon booth, they had several Randonserus to try on so we picked the pink one and my younger weeb self was feeling very dokidoki!

OP, Headbow, Socks, Bag (not pictured here): Angelic Pretty
Shoes: Stradivarius
Accessories: Offbrand 
*******

We also came across what looked like a library, they even had some Gothic Lolita Bibles and Lolita in Tokyo Wonderland! And loads of Love Live! books ♥









Do you realize I didn't throw my money at Rilakkuma this time?! 



Your fujotrash is showing!




We met the cutest Pikachu airplane pilot at the Kansai International airport booth ♥ 



MONCHICHI ♥




*******
We also HAD to stop by Kawaii Style! 
Their booth was full with many cute things and lots of Liz Lisa ♥
They also had Triple*Fortune at some point but everything was sold out very quickly on the first day!!








Soon, we joined Sandra and Clafoutea for the Yuri On Ice talkshow **squeals**
Mitsurou Kubo and Sayo Yamamoto had a talk and drawing show. Among other things, they talked about french ice skaters and Emil's birthday! Aaand look at the drawing! Cute french Viktor with a beret, marinière and a baguette and drunk Yuri ♥


  

After the talk show, we met with (and hugged) Kumamon so my day was finally complete, 
I mean... ♥ 




It was finally time to go back home but first we had to ride the oh-so-crowed-post-Japan-Expo RER...
By the way, Roxane made a lovely video about our day, check it out! ♥


See you soon and 
take care until next time ♥
