She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock.-Lolita


  • "Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta. 
  • She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock. She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita. Did she have a precursor? She did, indeed she did. In point of fact, there might have been no Lolita at all had I not loved, one summer, an initial girl-child. In a princedom by the sea."
    - Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita, Part One, Ch. 1

So there is no secret about it. My favorite novel/movie of all time is Lolita. I love it. I crave it. I read that book at least 3 times a month. Not kidding.
This is why I'm talking about Lolita fashion.

This is why I'm talking about Lolita fashion. Despite the classic misconception, the two are not correlated. Although I do desire both equally.Lolita fashion is influenced by Rococo and the victorian era, and is not about being sexy.
more like cute,whimsical, and elegant.

Although, I am very guilty of wearing pushup bras and loving my sexy curves. Here I try and rock a somewhat lolita-esque look


Check Out the banging crochet embellished collar!
Sundress-I honestly have no clue. I've worn it for so long.
