Rounding out my basics
This time last year, I had a very small wardrobe. Now, my wardrobe is still pretty small, but I have been able to beef it up some. I specifically wanted to buy Bodyline's L364 blouse in purple, a pair of wrist cuffs, one of the bat themed head accessories from my wishlist, and a star shaped bag. The only thing from this list I didn't get was the blouse in purple, but I did get it in white instead. I also got a bunch of other things, including two loliable pairs of shoes, two purses, two wig, a head eating bow, and a bunch of jewelry.
Buy either Guilty Meltin' Sweets or Merrymaking In The Ghost Town
This... did not happen at all. To be fair, I wasn't really expecting to make this goal, since, for most of the year, I didn't have a job and only brought in about 200 dollars a month.
Design my own border print/Make my own clothes
This didn't happen either, mostly. I did solidify one boarder print design but I didn't end up creating the art for it, let alone actually got it made. Again though, this was one of my loftier goals.
Drink more tea
For a while there I was drinking more tea than I had been, but that didn't last long.
Make a cohesive decor plan for my bedroom
I just barely squeaked by on this one when I put together an amazon wishlist to send to people who asked what I wanted for Christmas. I decided on black and white and pastels as my colour scheme, not just for my bedroom but for my entire apartment, with both gothy and nerdy decorations and a lot of string lights. I feel like this includes all of my interests without being all over the place. Now I just need to start pulling things together.
But that's what this year is for! This year, my goals are :
Continue beefing up my wardrobe
What I've got is pretty well rounded now but it's not very impressive . I still want to be able to wear lolita daily (or at least on the days I don't work) without repeating my outfits constantly. To do this I need a LOT more main pieces. This year, I want to buy at least :
- A plain black jsk
- One of the witchy themed JSKs on my wishlist
- Two pairs of tea parties, one in black and one in lavender
- A lavender peter pan collar blouse
- One Brand dress
Ideally, I want to buy something for my Lolita wardrobe every month and a dress every three months or so. Whether or not I'll actually be able to do that after bills, I don't know, but I want to at least try.
Take pictures of my coords
This is a pretty easy goal, but for some reason I am just so bad at remembering to take ootd pictures.
Be more active in the Lolita community/update this blog/make more personal posts on my Lolita tumblr
Combining these into one goal since they're all pretty similar. Since I want to try and buy something Lolita related every month, I should be able to post here at least once a month, and if I actually take coord pics I should be able to post more on tumblr. Then I can tag both of those things in the Lolita tags on tumblr, there by fulfilling all sections of this goal.
I do also want to try and go to some more meet ups though, which is both easier and harder now that I have a job.
Make some of my own clothes
This one's going on my list again because I have this great bat print fabric one of my friends got me that I really want to make into a skirt and I haven't. This goal will require me to buy a new sewing machine though.
