Hellocon 2016 outfit & purchases

Hello, everyone!

I'm trying to get back on track with blogging - and I do have lots of material, too! :'D

So here's my outfit for Helsinki Lolita Convention 2016, also known as the last Hellocon ever. I'm curious to see what's up next.

My theme for the outfit was crazy bunny lady à la crazy bunny lady. Bunnies are one of my favourite, most frequently seen themes nowadays! I've gone on full crazy bunny lady mode and I have no regrets. I've been hoarding lots of bunny themed accessories and home decor stuff lately. I really liked this outfit, and I love that dress! The powder pink bag is a lucky find from Rome - we made another trip there this spring and the Italians really do know how to make cute leather bags and shoes...

My purchases

I'm in a good place financially now that I'm working, so I promised myself that this will be the Hellocon where I am allowed to buy anything I want. And so I did. It was super fun though I did have some quilty feelings later - I'm not used to spending so much money at once. I've been doing a make over in my wardrobe - I've bought quite a few new things, but I've also sold many dresses that don't fit my style anymore. 

So, in Hellocon I bought
  • A beautiful Twin Flower dress, handmade of recycled materials 
  • Baby's classical heart bag which I have been drooling over ever since I started dressing in lolita fashion a little over decade ago 
  • Innocent World's bolero - another thing I've wanted for a very long time 
  • Miss Danger Shop's bunny brooch/headdress (what did I say about hoarding bunny stuff?!) and
  • Illves's adorable chubbycorn brooch. 


And in the end, some close ups.
