Music Post!

Hey lovelies! So because I didnt do day 8 of the lolita challenge properly Im going to do a music post about some of my favourite bands! This is also dedicated to the lovely Churi Chan (http://lolitayoghurt.blogspot.com/) who is absolutely adorable and you should all check her out, shes such a sweetie!

I guess my this is gonna be sort of a list of my favourite music ^^ it'll be alphabetical (Im gonna go through my ipod ^^)
I wont put videos for all but Ill put a few through! I have a vast music taste so I wont be able to cover all but Ill give it a go!

1.) Alexisonfire
Ive loved Alexisonfire since their first self titled album, but if youre gonna start listening to them Id go for the Crisis album ^^ they also remind me of when I first met my boyfriend 7 years ago <3
I cried a bit when I heard them play this perfectly live!

2.) The Bled
The Bled were one of my transitional bands into heavier music, I still absolutely adore them and could listen through the Found in the Flood album over and over! I also adore their lyrics: "Cast as the role of a lover, and I feel slightly misplaced in a world thats fuck or be fucked" beautiful.

3.) Combichrist
Take me back to my cyber days! I love it when I hear them played in a club, I cant not dance!

4.) Cradle of Filth
Because they were the first metal band I ever really loved when I was about 13? I still have a crush on Dani Filth >.<

5.) Deftones
Their music s amazing when Im drawing, it just makes me go into a strange drifty mood! My Own Summer <3

6.) Dir en Grey
The only Jrock band I really adore. I saw them last year and it was just insane! the sounds that were coming out of Kyo were not even human! I love that he was stood on a crate, hes super tiny!!

7.) The Distillers
Brody Dalle. Enough said, I just love her!

8.) Gallows
Just insane live, wish I couldve seen them again before Frank Carter left :'(

9.) He is Legend
If this wasnt alphabetical, theyd be right near the top! This band really have shaped my music taste, and I love that their music changes from album to album. No one song will give you a good taster but heres my current favourite (also check out The Seduction!)

10.) Help She Cant Swim
For being silly and dancing around to ^^

11.) Korn
Saw them live this summer and Jonathons voice is just ridiculous! Didnt play my favourite song (evolution) though :(

12.) Lower Than Atlantis
Saw them this summer <3 they have my current favourite sad song aha!

13.) Machine head
SO GOOD

14.) Metronomy
because we all need a bit of upbeat electro every now and then ^^

15.) Nero
Throw some dubstep in here! My lovely boyfriend made a gaming montage and dedicated it to myself and some other friends with my favourite nero song in it (the first song ^^)

16.) Norma Jean
God so good. a band that has evolved and gotten better and better with every album!

17.) Placebo
No need to explain. Seeing Brian Molko looking beautiful and sinnging incredibly live made me and my friend Jessie shed a tear <3

18.) Queens of the Stoneage
So underrated! saw them at my first festival and it was pure magic!

19.) Rammstein
Best live band of my life to date ^^

20.) Scarling
I love Jessicka, and I love Scarling as much if not more than Jack off Jill

21.) The Smiths
because I grew up listening to Morisseys beautiful voice on vinyl ^^


22.) The XX
so beautiful. My painting music

23.) The Yeah Yeah Yeahs
ultimate love song, Maps <333

24.) 36 Crazyfists
because theyre me and my best friend Peejs ultimate sing a long band ^^

so there we go. My top24..? Strange number to leave it at! It will bug me the bands Ive missed and well done if you made it this far ^^
goodnight lovelies!

Day 10 – What’s in Your Bag?

Ooops Ive been very bad in keeping up with this! Ive been so busy helping with petitions to help get the bees that killed our beautiful Sara removed that Ive neglected this a bit. Ill do it as much as I can! (See last blog post for more information on sara and please sign the petition here: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/gsd_sara_andover/)

On to todays challenge!
My bag and contents:
1.) My HK headphones. I prefer big headphones because I find small ones fall out due to my tragus piercing. The sound quality is also so, so much better through these!

2.) Jagermeister lanyard. This is usually at the bottom of my bag because I need it when Im at work (I work on a bar)

3.) My Pauls Boutique purse <333 I have the matching bag too! I must make a sailor lolita outfit and use it in my coord soon.

4.) My favourite spray in the world! Its all vanilla and yummy ^^

5.) Vaseline and Lip Smackers pinky liquid lip gloss. I usually have atleast two lipglosses in the bottom of my bag ^^

6.) Hello Kitty lighter. I smoke, I know so not rori right? Idc

7.) Gum, I have paranoia about my teeth so i always chew gum after meals if I cant brush them

8.) Book, I nearly always have one with me!

Hope you enjoyed my bag!
Im also going to show you a picture of me and my mum, who borrowed one of my skirts because her friends hen night was a trip to see Grease the musical and go out dressed up!
okay thats all for today bye princesses

Yayayay :D

My laptop was delivered today, they fixed it so quickly! Ive lost everything, but thankfully its not term time so its only annoying because Ill have to redo my itunes really, at least I havent lost anything of great importance.
This also means I can go back to lots of pictures without the weird formatting issues!
Today Im going to show you my outfit and makeup from yesterday!
I tried something a little more gothic. What do you think?
I liked wearing a corset with lolita.
I tried to make my eyeliner a little more gyaru inspired, so my eyes look nice and big even though its not quite obvious its supposed to be gyaru!
I used the purple and gold shadow to try and give it a more decadent feel, as well as lower and top false lashes.
And a couple more outfit shots ^^
Hope you liked them!

Day 9 – 10 Things You Will Never Do in Lolita.

Ill do it properly today hehe ^^


1.) Eat spaghetti! For obvious reasons >.> Im a messy eater!


2.) Go clubbing. Hot, sweaty, spilt drinks, and I love to dance and dont want to be restricted.


3.) Go to a theme park. Wet dress, ruined hair and make up and a miserably flat petti by the end of the day!


4.) Go to a gig/ festival for afore mentionned reasons


5.) Any form of art besides drawing with pencil


I cant think of anymore! I might update this later ^^

Im failing the lolita challenge currently Q.Q

Day 8! But Im going to rebel....

Hello sweeties! So today is Day 8 – 10 songs that inspire you for lolita.


But Im not going to do todays challenge, I dont really listen to anything that inspires me more in lolita than anywhere else!



I dont particularly love jrock/ jpop that much, in fact the only visual band I really enjoy is Dir en Grey. I listen to metal (All kinds), some indie and electro, older music (the smiths, the cure, siouxsie and the banshees etc) and when Im working Im forced to listen to pop.


So Im going to leave this one.


You can have some new Bexy pictures instead hehe ^^


Cant wait to get my laptop back, this one makes my format weird and makes pictures 10x harder!


hope youre well princesses, byebye

Day 7 – 10 people who inspire your lolita style.

Hey sweeties! So Im back!
My lovely/ sweet/ amazing boyfriend lent me a laptop while mine is away to be fixed! So Ill continue on with the challenge ^^
All of the people Ive chosen have blogs so that you can see more of them if you want some inspiration too!




1.) Zeruda
http://zerudaswonderland.blogspot.com/
Zeruda is number 1 for me because she was one of the first non asian lolitas I saw online. Ive been following her for a long time on lookbook and her looks always inspire me to work on my coordinations.





















2.) Emilia
http://carousel-dreams.blogspot.com/
I always love her pictures, her hair is so ridiculously perfect! I also brought two beautiful handmade items from her and I have a lot of admiration for anyone who makes beautiful crafts.






















3.) Sui Princess
http://suiprincess.blogspot.com/

Although she is more dominantly hime gyaru I love Sui's lolita looks and also the effort she makes with her hair and make up with any look.






















4.) Ludivine

http://lady-ludivine.blogspot.com/


I think shes just stunning! And I love the dresses she makes, she has such an incredible style.























5.) Ana
http://milkyberrie.blogspot.com/
Shes absolutely beautiful and has some incredible coords. I do get annoyed that people make such a big deal of her piercings however. Ive got 16 piercings and 2 tattoos and I dont see why people think its so revolutionary!



















6.) Aria


http://dixmacabre.blogspot.com/
Her creations are just incredible! makes me realise how much I need to work on my own skills -.-





























7.) Alanna
http://macaron.mintroses.com/



Her blog is incredible and I love her weekly updates on brands!

































8.) Julie
http://smileysquid.blogspot.com/



Shes the cutest ever! I love seeing her meet up reports, even when theyre not lolita related.


























9.) Mio



http://www.pastelraindrops.com/



I love her style, fairy kei appeals to me so much and I love the way she puts her outfits together.
























10.) Ellinor


http://springbells.blogspot.com/


Her handmade pieces are so beautiful, and she looks so demure.




















Sorry if my formatting on this post is a little odd, Im not sure why its being so weird!



Bye bye !

Technology and Bexys arent friends :(

Hello lovelies! And to any new followers, thank you! I hope you'll enjoy my blog ^^

For now I'm afraid I have some bad news...

My new laptop, the one I've had for less than three months... Has already failed. When I start it up it doesn't even recognise it has a hard drive Q.Q just my luck!!

So I'm afraid the Lolita 30 Day Challenge will be on hold for a little while so I can make my posts interesting and picture filled ^^

hopefully this should be sorted in a couple of days!

hope you are all well, bye bye!
