Connichi 2014

Hey everyone <3

Long time no post... ugh~ I really want to post more often. Sorry. ;;
Now, I finally want to write a short post about Connichi 2014 in Kassel. It's the biggest Anime and Manga Convention in Germany and I guess it was my fourth time there. Before the Convention I stayed two days at a friend's house and it was pretty nice. I also met up with my friend Nana who's living in Kassel too. I drank the most delicious White Chocolate with soy milk at a café there! ;o;

On Friday I cosplayed Armin Arlert from Shingeki no Kyojin. I really like this costume but it's so uncomfortable... because of the straps. I'm too small and too skinny for them, so I always have to pull them up. >< I also met Anshie that day. She's quite famous for her Eren Jäger cosplay and a very nice girl... and also almost as short as me, haha. :D

 On Saturday I wore my Baby, the Stars shine bright dress again. It was "Sweet Jewelry Princess". Though it was my first brand dress, it's also one of my favorite dresses. I found out that lolita is way more comfortable than cosplay, haha. It was pretty cool to meet all my friends from all over Germany again.

On Sunday I wore my Hime Lolita coord. My friends Chibi and Sanny went to the concert of Nagareda Project and we were standing in the first row. ^o^ It was amazing, especially when they started with the two Shingeki no Kyojin openings! Next to us were some Japanese girls who traveled to Kassel just to see Nagareda Project. At least I think so haha, because they owned a lot of merchendise and didn't speak any German.

All I bought at the convention were two Rillakkuma pencils and three magazines... I haven't bought any manga for ages, haha. :D

Thanks for reading. <3

Random joy ~ Kanon is happy

Heyah everyone~

Yesterday I found a post on the EGL Sales which was just posted so I was quick enough to get one dress! A girl was selling the rest of her lolita wardrobe and sold all the pieces for very cheap prices. So tomorrow I will pay the dress and I'm just super happy becaaaaause: It's the Merry Sweet Castle JSK in prink from Baby the Stars shine bright. *___* I found out that there's also a replica of that dress but I'll have the authentic one. For 70€! Normal people would say "WTF you think that's cheap? It's just a dress!" But hell yeah, it is cheap! The original price was something about 250€ and even if I saw it Second Hand somewhere it was always something about 150€ to 190€, so yes it's cheap! :D
I really hope it's arrive fast so I can have it in my hands as soon as possible. It'll be my second brand dress and I'm happy about that! ^o^
I'm not a brandwhore (bc I don't have so much brand xD), but I actually like brand more than offbrand or bodyline. Bodyline is great for shoes and basics, but like 85% of the prints suck in my opinion. I also own two bodyline dresses and the ice cream skirt (which I think I'll sell soon since I don't like it anymore) and I guess I will order some dresses/skirts without print from bodyline. And a coat. But therefore I'll need some more money, haha.
Btw on Sunday I'll officially move out! Yay. My room is occupied with boxes and bags and it's annoying me so much. I can't wait to decorate my flat! ;u; It should be lolita inspired although I couldn't efford those awesome lolitaish furniture! But I'll try. ;___;

Thanks for reading!!

First meet-up with my local Comm → Eastern Elegance

At 24th August I finally had the change to meet my local comm for the first time. I'm into lolita since 2012 but I never had the change to visit a meet up. I actually planned to attend a meet in 2013 but I didn't have the money nor the time. It was really upsetting, but finally I had the money AND the time, so I went to Rudolstadt in Thuringia by train (almost three hours journey, but this was fine by me). Actually I live in Saxony, but since the price for the train tickets would be the same, I went to the meet-up in Thuringia. I've never been to this city before, but I didn't get lost. It was a nice small city and the castle we visited was nice too! I wished I had the time to visit the museum inside the castle as well. Only bad thing was, that it was on a hill and the stairs were damn annoying, haha.
I was kinda nervous, because I didn't know anyone of the girls but everyone turned out to be very nice and friendly. One thing that was estonishing was, that only three or four (including me) girls out of about 13 were wearing brand. I expacted that almost everyone was wearing brand, haha. The other dresses were offbrand or handmade (or I didn't realize that it was actually brand, haha). And there was no "ita", haha. All the coords were nice and beautiful. ^w^
We took some photos outside and then went to a workshop about folding napkins. It was interesting but after two hours very tiring. And I was so damn hungry, haha.
After the workshop we had a picknick, but not only we liked the food but also a lot of wasps wanted to join us, haha. But hey, it's summer, what else do you expact? :D
In December there will be a Christmas teaparty and I will definily go there too!




Hugs and kisses,
Kanon <3

Birthday Teaparty of my friend Misa in Potsdam. x3

Hey everyone~

Now I'd like to show you some pictures of a teaparty one of my friends planned for her birthday at the 7th of August. Although the room was small we could all sit on the table, haha. Petticoats can be annoying you know? :D We were seven people. There was so much cake and so many cookies that I couldn't even try everything. It's a pity since I love food. ;o;
Afterwards we went to Sanssoucci in Potsdam to take some photos. It's a great scenery and I'd definitly like to go there more often for taking photos. ^__^

Selfie in my coord for the teaparty:

And here are some other photos: 







I don't have a lot to talk about, but it was very funny since there're a lot of tourists at Sanssoucci and many of them wanted to take a photo with us and thought it was interesting. There was a French group and they were pretty surprised when I talked to them in French. :D And I realized that my French became pretty bad and that I have to revise a lot, haha. Another person I remember was a Finnish father with his two kids who took a photo with us. :D
One of the girls took a lot of photos as well, but I don't have them yet. That's why I don't have so many photos to show you. Maybe I will post them later on! ^____^

Love~ <3

P.S. I just realized that I need a poofier petticout while looking at the last picture. orz

Ongaku Matsuri & BTS Showcase in Berlin (July)

Hello again! ^___^

At 25th July I went to Berlin (by carpooling since it's less pricy then the train) to visit Ongaku Matsuri and the Showcase of BTS. I was really excited, not only because of those two events but also because I will meet a lot of new people and friends!

On Saturday I dressed up in Lolita. I stayed at my friend Misa's place and we walked through Berlin together. At Alexanderplatz we met some of my friends I met on Facebook, because they were also in Berlin for the showcase. After a starbuck's drink we went to J*Store Berlin to take Purikura! Not all of my friends joined us, so Misa and I ended up going there with a friend from Kassel and two friends from England. Yes, they came to Germany just for BTS! We got along very well and right now I already miss them omg. ;o;
Here is a photo of one of our purikuras (I'm on the left side, haha. :D):

Afterwards we went to the venue of Ongaku Matsuri, which is like a j-rock/k-pop/anime party. There I met some other lolitas and cosplayers and at 8 pm the music started so we could dance. The bad thing was, that it has been very hot in the room so I had to go outside and couldn't dance a lot. My two friends from England had the same problem. :( But the next Ongaku Matsuri will be in January which means, there's not so much heath!! Hehe~ I will be there again, I'm sure. :D


On Sunday there was the Showcase of BTS. I only got like 4 hours of sleep because I got up at 4 am just to be at the venue at 7 am. I had to go 1,5 hs by public transport from Potsdam to Berlin. And why I wanted to be there that early? Well, I'm short and when I'm in a back row, I don't see anything... And there were 200 people with VIP tickets, which meant I have to be one of there first people with a regular ticket. In the end I was number 63 or something. Of the regular tickets. Most people went there earlier than me or even slept there, although it was dangerous as fuck. Next to the concert venue is a park which is famous for its high amount of aggressiv drug dealers and crime. Thank god nothing happened to the people who slep in front of the venue. 
So, I waited exactly twelve hours in front of the venue. But it wasn't that bad. I talked to the people there, went to McDonalds or had some ice cream with my British friends. :D I also met two girls from Serbia who traveled 24 hours to get to Berlin! That's so amazing omg. *-*
The showcase itself was very funny and I was so happy that my bias Namjoon talked so much! He was the only one who spoke English fluently (it's said that he taught it himself!!), so he translated everything for the other members. There was also the possibility for fans to get on stage and recieve gifts from BTS but unfortunately I wasn't chosen, haha. They also played a Germany-quiz-game and had to answer some questions of the fans. Before the concert we could write our questions on a board. The only question I remember was "Why are you so handsome? What do you eat?" xDD
The showcase was over after a bit more than an hour and it was so short! I wished they had played more songs but well... it was a showcase, not a concert. Afterwards there was the High5 Event but since I'm poor as fuck, I couldn't efford the ticket. But most of my friends could and they were so happy afterwards!! I'm happy for them. ;o;

On Monday I had a day off from work, so I went back home on Monday. But before I met up with Misa and my British friends again in Berlin, so we went to NeoTokyo. I wanted to buy a magazine but their credid card reader was broken, so I couldn't pay. ;___; Sad life. *sobs* xD

Well, I really enjoyed this weekend, although I only got few sleep, but it was definitly worth it!! I can't wait to go to Berlin again and to meet my friends. :D
Actually, one week later I went to Berlin with my family again, haha. But it wasn't that interesting, so I won't write a blogpost about it. Or rather it's nothing I want to share with the public. :D All I can say is, that I met a great guy there (I already knew him and we met uo again) and I've slightly fallen for him. But no, we're not a couple yet. ;___; Haha. :D

Hugs and kisses <3

Payday and random words~ :D

Hello Cuties~ ♥

Sorry for not posting so much, but I don't have a lot to talk about at the moment.
Only like 30 days of work left, when I don't count the weekend, which encourages me a lot. It's not that I dislike my work, it's just that I really can't wait to finally go to university. ^o^
Especially living in my own flat is one of the things I'm looking forward the most.
But finding a flat is difficult, especially when there are only a few small flats and my budget isn't that big... I have an eye on some flats, but I will move out at the end of September and now it's June... so you can imagine that they want to rent their flat to a person who wants to live in this flat from July and not someone like me, haha... But when I find a good flat, I will definitly sign the contract as soon as I can. :D

Next month, at 26th July I will go to Berlin. Firstly because of Ongaku Matsuri, which is a kind of Japanese-Anime-Disco. I will go there with my good friend from Berlin and I'm happy to meet some friends there. ^o^ But what I'm most excited for in Berlin is the 27th July because then I'll visit the BTS showcase! Can't wait to get to know the people I met on Facebook (one from France, one from the UK and a German girl). I will spend the whole day in front of the venue since I just have a standard ticket. And I'm so small that I wouldn't see anything if I was in a back row. >w< 

Yesterday I also ordered from Bodyline again. Yay!
I got this cute cutsew:

These shoes:

And this sweet hat:

I can't wait till my package arrives because it's like sending yourself a present, hehe. And I like to coordinate the new things with my stuff. Especially the cutsew.

Tomorrow I will also order these shoes from Aliexpress:


I fell in love with them so hard and they're just amazing and sooo cheap! I will order them in pink and if they fit very good, I'll buy them in white too. Seems like my recent addiction are shoes, haha. :D 

I also want to buy another stuff, but I will wait a bit now~ :D 

I will take photos of the items and review them, after they arrived. ^~^ 

See you~ ♥
