This weekend I had the pleasure of attending a lolita meet one of my comm members organized at a pick-your-own-fruit farm outside of town. Right now strawberries are in season, so we all dressed accordingly. I had never gone strawberry picking before but it was a true pleasure to crouch there on the ground, searching beneath glossy leaves for the perfect berries to fill my admittedly overpriced little plastic bucket. I've never tasted a grocery store strawberry so flavorful.
Looking at these lush plants really activated my inner grandma sensibilities. I couldn't stop thinking of strawberry tablecloths, strawberry wallpaper, embroidered strawberries, percale sheets in the guest bedroom with little strawberries printed all over them...
Here's what I wore! I couldn't decide which headpiece to use, so I chose both.
JSK: Freshly Picked Strawberries by Angelic Pretty
Bolero: Nile Perch
Hat: offbrand
Headdress: Little May Bells
Wristcuffs: Wax Poetic
Shoes: Cotton Candy Fantasy
I had a fantastic time picking berries, eating lunch, and taking silly photos with my comm. The farm also had a store where I bought some pickled carrots, a pie, and some creamy spinach dip that I can't wait to crack into; if it's half as delicious as those carrots I'll be very happy. Although having depression takes a lot out of me, spending time idyllically with friends in the fashion I love is truly rejuvenating.
🪻See you next time!🪻
