Oh, gosh, it’s so cold outside!!  A pretty coat can keep you feeling cute even though you have to cover up your cute outfit.  (This is the saddest part of Winter to me – no one can see the outfit I’ve put together!)

LIZ LISA 5-Way Poncho-Style Coat

So versatile!!
The poncho cape is sooo pretty.
I love the shape that capes make.  And this one with fur trim and a row of bows
make it perfectly princess-like.

LIZ LISA Elegant Winter Coat w/ Ribbon Brooch

Elegant is right!!
My favorite detail on this is the lace trim at the bottom.
But that awesome ribbon brooch and the fluffy fur trim is also amazing.

Wow!!  This cardigan is pretty enough to be a blouse!!

But also the vertical beaded ribbon down each side.

one top, two bottoms, and a bag!

LIZ LISA Raspberry Pattern Sukapan Skirt

Pieces like these always remind me of the ornate designs on Lolita skirts.
If you want something more casual than Lolita while still conveying a similar elegance,
then a skirt like this from Liz Lisa might be perfect for your style!

LIZ LISA Fairy Tale Print Dress

Well, anything with “fairy tale” in its name is an instant love for me!!
This navy blue is dramatic and elegant,
but you can get it in paler colors, too, if you want to stick with pastels~

LIZ LISA Back Ribbon Pinafore Dress

Ahhhh I love this deep wine red!!!
And the floral illustrations along the border are so romantic!!
Dresses like this, which cut low under the bust, look beautiful to me.
By wearing them, you can still show off much of the details on your blouse.

LIZ LISA Mocha Lace Blouse

Speaking of blouses!!  Here is a perfect one!!
(Actually the same on in the picture above, too!)
The lacy details on this are soooo cute.
And with roses surrounding you on the collar,
it’s like you’re walking around with permanent shoujo-vision.

Warm Winter Boots & Cute Cardigans Perfect for Larme-Kei

Thursday, December 17th, 2015

I realized today that I so rarely cover shoes in any of my writeups!!  And with it being so cold out, we should definitely cover some cute boots.  To round out today’s post, there are also some very pretty pastel cardigans that can help you to keep warm indoors, without the bulk of other jackets.

Warm Winter Boots & Cute Cardigans Perfect for Larme-Kei (1)

Tall Fur Laced-Up Suede Boots with Bows

Ahhhh!!  So pretty!!
Classy, tall boots like these can be worn for a TON of styles.
Mori Girl, Lolita, and anything gyaru is workable with these.

Cute Fur-Lined Warm Winter Ankle Boots

These are a little simpler than the ultra-elegant boots above!!
But they’re still pretty classy.
Again, boots are so versatile, they can be worn with anything.

Short-Sleeved Sailor Cardigan

Usually I go for the preview shots that show the item in pink,
but I thought this beige version was super classy!!
Short sleeves won’t help you much outside in the cold,
but if you just need something to throw on indoors if you’re always cold (like me)
then this is the kind of thing that’s perfect.

Light Lace Sweet Princess Cardigan

Well, this is even lighter than the previous…
But!  It’s so elegantly pretty!!  Soft, white floral lace… *sigh*
This could add a really pretty Wintery touch to an outfit.

Fluffy White (or Pink) Cap-Sleeve Princess Crop Top

There are so many pretty details to this!!
The furry fabric screams Winter princess.
The sheer neckline with delicate embroidery, the ruffles around the sleeves,
the short length of the top, the faint tinsel-like shimmer in the fluffy fabric…
Altogether they make for an impressive, sweet little top!!
