BSB Concert

To celebrate my Mom and Big Sister's bday back in August I bought us tickets to go see the Backstreet Boys. They were lawn tickets but we still had a really great time.


Car ride up there

My Mom had a blast and danced with us the whole time. lol

It was PACKED!!! And surprisingly not all girls



This was magical in person. Everything was lit up *^*

I'm sure if you ask anyone about this concert they'd tell you it was AWESOME!!! They still have an amazing voice and all the old dance moves. They even put to shame an up and coming boy group they came on before them. I would go to another concert if of course I could score another great deal on it ;)

Didn't wear anything special because I had to try to stay as cool as possible. Texas weather can be pretty brutal.



This pic was taken after the concert so I'm sweaty and gross. lol

If you have a chance to see them I'd say do it. But definitely take some friends with you because the energy is something that should be shared with some cool people :)

Outfit Dump 58 - 62

Man, I have neglected this blog like the black plague. I'm so behind so I'm going to have lots of outfit dumps so I can attempt to catch up.

I wore this back in July to take my Mother-in-law out to celebrate her birthday. We went to get her nails/toes done, get her makeup done (and some false eyelashes) and pick out a new wig. I don't think my outfit was too extreme but I did get a lot of comments from people all day, from negative to positive. lol My MIL liked it and didn't mind me being dressed the way I was so I didn't really care what others said, just find it funny.

 

Had an HLC meet-up at NASA also. So I wore a space themed outfit.

You can check out how my day went and lots more pictures here

The next day one of the girls from our community had a launch for the online store she was starting out so I dressed up in Lolita (but nothing fancy). You can see more pictures and details about her store here.

My handmade bunny purse

And one of the dresses I tried on there. I ended up buying another one but I really love this print

And a simple and breezy outfit for a birthday dinner for Adrian's Uncle (such bad lighting)

And another simple/casual outfit (light pink/black and stars)

I skipped putting where my stuff came from but if there is something you're curious about just let me know. That's it for this one!

2 X the Bday Celebrations

Back in July I had a very fun filled Saturday. In the afternoon I met up my Big Sister, Niece and her old teacher at a local movie theater to celebrate my Niece's birthday ^^


Jocelyn and her old teacher, Tiffany (she was a cool teacher)

Birthday Girl and My Big Sister, Besie

Not sure if you could tell but we went to see the movie Despicable Me 2 XD It was such a great movie! I highly recommend it, but you need to watch part 1 first; which is what I did the night before online >< lol

After the movie ended we walked around for a little bit and got some sugary goodness at a local bakery called Sweet. The sunny weather was nice but kinda hot with all the layers I had on.

Sisterly love + my beautiful Niece

She's wearing the tutu I made her the year before (for her birthday) *(^-^)*

And here's my full outfit. I ended up meeting some other MLP lovers in one of the shops we stopped in

 

Later we parted ways and I rushed home to get ready for the other birthday celebration I was attending that night. You can see more pictures and read about that part here, but here's one of the shots I took.

I love birthdays! It's a time you get to celebrate someone you care about for just being them <3

Well... That's it for now!!!

Dallas Graduation Celebration

On May 17th we all headed up to Dallas for the weekend to celebrate the graduation of my sister-in-law, Angela. We got there in the evening and while I was unable to attend the actual graduation ceremony (limited tickets were given to each graduate and immediate family got priority) we all did go to dinner afterwards at the restaurant she worked at which was awesome because the food seemed endless ^^

This was also the first time that I wore Lolita in front of my husband's family so I will admit that I was a little nervous at first but everyone really liked my outfit and asked questions and stuff, which made me very happy.

 

Me with my sister-in-law Angela

Dress: Baby the Stars Shine Bright
Blouse / Socks: Bodyline
Shoes: Secret Shop

On Saturday our hosts took us to The Perot Museum of Nature and Science, which was just walking distance from their apartment

View from the escalator on the top floor

There was so much to see and do, but we were on limited time since we arrived later in the afternoon.

The more you know: Colors *^*

Many scientist believe the moon formed from the debris created when a Mars-size planetoid collided with Earth long ago.

Tethysaurus

Columbian Mammoth Skelton (Mammuthus Columbi - Collected in Dallas)

My outfit for the day

Dress: Asianicandy
Socks: Bodyline
Shoes: Secret Shop

Torosaurus Skull (Torosaurus Latus - Collected in South Dakota)

Pachyrhinosaurus Skeleton (Pachrhinosaurus Perotorm - Collected in Alaska

Toronado - it would break up when you put your hands through it

Earthquake simulator - They even had different magnitudes you could choose from

I just really loved this display and how bright it was

Heat sensing screen. Look at how hot I am. hehe

This machine was cool. You put your hand under the light and it shows your veins

On this one when you moved it projected all the movements you made on the screen

This one took a little more time to take effect but the blocks moved when you did also.

 We missed out on a lot of the exhibits but we were shown the sports hall briefly. You can race against several athletes, a cheetah or even a t-rex, which was really interesting. I hope one day we are able to go again. If anyone is in Dallas I highly recommend checking this place out. There was so much to see and a lot of it was interactive which made it that much better ^^

Sunday was a day for us to relax but we did manage to go out to eat at Benihana so I dressed up for fun.

Old School Sweet <3

Dress: Bodyline
Headbow: Innocent World

The rest of the family left Sunday but my husband and I left Monday afternoon so we went out for brunch before heading out.

Kept it cool and casual since it was hot out - also not happy with my sock choice

Top: F21
Skirt: Anna House

We really had such a great time hanging out with Adrian's sister and her boyfriend. They really are such great people and we always have an awesome time together which is why I'm sad that they just moved to Chicago last week. Hopefully they can visit or we can visit them because I miss them lots!

It had been a while since I spent the weekend out of town but I knew I wanted to pack lots of Lolita clothes. What kind of clothing do you pack for a trip? I'd love to hear about it ^^

Until next time... - Angel

Family Time at the Zoo

At the end of last year my Mom, Big Sister, Little Sister and Me took the day off from work and went to see my Big Brother and do some shopping. We ended up having such a great time that we decided that we should do it again.

So finally last month we were all able coordinate a Friday off from work and made plans to take our nephew/grandson/son (my brother's son. lol) on his first trip to the zoo. Which was super exciting since I had been wanting to go for the longest time <3

We all packed into my Big Sister's car, and man was it packed. We were 6 adults, my nephew w/his car seat, and a cooler with a stroller thingy on top


Packed in tight and sharing my space with a wheel. lol (w/little sister, she's so silly)

We made it!

 Little Sister (Crystal), Mommy, Christian and Big Brother (Abel)

Our Tickets

The tickets had different animals on them. So cool

I tried hard to narrow down the pics I took (274 I think).
There were just so many cool things and the animals were so cute.

Our first stop when we got in was the aquarium. It was in a separate building so as soon as we walked in the first tank was filled with small Jellyfish <3 I had never seen any irl and it was such a magical moment. They were so adorable yet captivating with each movement （*´▽｀*）



More Jellyfish ＼(◎o◎)／

Here Fishy Fishy!!! (Deuce Bigalow reference. lol)

Can't help but think of Ursula and her eels when I saw this guy, even though the color is off

So pretty <3 Especially the lavender one

Hahaha. Found some masks

Momma and her baby. So cute

So happy we were able to make the sea lion show.

My nephew woke up just in time to see it, which he enjoyed very much.

Red Pandas. They were sleepy heads

Sloth. He looks magical here <3

Ahhhhhh!!! Piranhas!!!

Bats. They're so cool but at the same time they give me the hibbie jibbies

I think these are chipmunks. Either way they were cute (getting their grub on. lol)

Snakes are so freakin awesome. Got lots of pics of them but didn't want to spam so the Eastern Diamond-Backed Rattlesnake won. Those eyes... so much respect for these dangerous animals



Only semi full outfit shot I got. I tried pretend I was yelling but ended up just looking weird, hence the heart. lol

Tried to represent panadas in my outfit since we don't have any in our zoo

 

Hmmmm. Very interesting...

Little sister bought pretty stones at the gift shop

This day was beyond words. We had so much fun and really enjoyed each other's company. I say this alot but time spent with family are some of my most precious moments. Hope we get to do more stuff like this again.
