Introducing the Dogwood Lolita!

I probably shouldn't be doing this. I don't own a stitch of proper lolita attire (okay, a bustle over and underskirt, but the petticoat isn't finished yet and it should have been done in May). I'm not really a lifestyler, per se. I'm hardly a BNF (big name fashionista). So, why am I doing this?

Maybe it's the urge to share my growth and studies. This is sort of a homework assignment for myself. Expanding my knowledge, finding questions to ask my Loli Mentor *waves to Denise* and, oh yeah, sticking with a task. That one's always the hard one. Don't believe it? Check my profile and see how many failed attempts at blogging there are. It doesn't help that I DO keep a real-life blog, so I can bitch and whine about life and stuff and I post in that one on a sporadic basis. It's mostly memes, grumpiness, and flailing about writing projects and NaNo.

Let's see... I should probably tell you a little about myself. My name's Brenna. I'm married and working on going back to school to be a teacher. I'll be 24 in September and I'm a Libra. I enjoy reading, roleplaying and vintage fashion. My favorite colors are, well, all of them, but I go through phases of color cravings. I wouldn't be surprised if they link to my general mood over a period of time. When I'm not plotting the ruffled and beribboned conquest of the world, I'm a medieval re-enactor (kSCAa Sciath ingen MeicCon), and an aspiring writer, with at least three novels in mind at a time. I have a nasty habit of starting projects and never finishing them, or at least taking forever to do so. I have two cats, John-John, a cross between a furry potroast and a ninja, and Raven, a prissy, thieving little tabby.

I'm not terribly fussy about my variety of Lolita, though I lean towards casual a fair bit, I'm sure. Comfort is a big thing for me. No tight, full-length sleeves for me, and I'm a bit intimidated by the headeating bows and crinoline and I have a “bad romance”; a great deal of cursing and verbal abuse, followed by a raging love affair, suited to epic films and novels, right before the swearing starts again.

In closing, I'm really hoping I can stick with this. I have a list of topics in case I run out of ideas, some of which can inspire more posts and, hopefully, before long, I'll be writing... OUTFIT POSTS. *has a moment* So, until then, this is Brenna, wishing you all lots of luck, love, and living space!
