Hello lovelies, 

it's been a while since the Lolita community organized another b&b. Usually it was combined with the Anime/Manga event Animarket but about two years ago the organizers of that event split and made two different events on the same day. And then it somehow fizzled out and the community made their own event again - one following the big Tea party in June 2024 (see here) and the newest one, last weekend in January.

The event started at 11am and we arrived around 1pm. I have to confess that it took me ages to get ready. I put on my make-up, my big prisila wig-parts and we made pictures. But the heavy weight on my head from all the wig-parts made my head hurt, so I removed it again for the event. Plus, I changed my shoes. Those swankiss shoes were already so old and the bow at the back of the shoes fell off. 

Outfit rundown: 

OP: Angelic Pretty - shadow dream carnival 

Shoes: Swankiss

Bow: La Pafait

6 different wig parts: Prisila

If you don't know how a b&b works, it is easy. You bring all of your items with a proper tag stating your name, the brand of the item, the size and price. Not mandatory but good to know would also be: if you accept PayPal plus your PayPal address, phone number, and measurements of the item. At the cashier your pay the fee for leaving your clothes there (1€ per item) and then you can stroll around and check out, what other people are selling. At the end of the event you pick up your clothes and ask the cashier for your money and they will hand it out to you in cash. And that's it. This time I handed it 7 items and sold three of them.

I loved the blue disney dress on the left but I rarely wear blue :(. 

And the skirts. The left skirt in the old pink colour I also own but never wear as I don't really like it. But I was also unsuccessful in selling it myself. Mh...

There was only a small collection of bags and shoes this time.

 

A few accessoires that were stored on the table.

 

Last event and also this event, we had Lisas Munchie's as a guest vendor - she sells amazing cookies.

Hias and I quickly grabbed lunch as we still had time. Can you guess which food is mine? Because I am team beige while my partner usually eats healthy food.

I say usually because we went to a cafe afterwards and he ate both of these croissant, which kind of negates his healthy food a bit in my opinion. But they did look delicious. I don't like the flaky-ness of croissants so if I have a choice, I'd rather order something else.

I picked up the unsold items, got my money and we went back home again. All in all I bought three dresses, a skirt, and a necklace. And here is the haul:

The skirt is so pink, so frills, so gyaru and I got it for only 15€.

J. gave me a small discount on this Axes Femme dress and I paid 40€ for it. She said that the dress colour didn't suit her complexion which I didn't see.

Finally, I stained glass window dress in white! Hooray. And it was only 40€ too. I just don't know the brand.

This cherry necklace is from Alien Moe, a creepy-cute Austrian indie brand. The necklace was 10€ a piece.

This Angelic Pretty dress looks so simple but it reminds me of Rapunzel. I also love this purple colour. I bought it for 75€.

All in all I paid 180€ but also sold items worth 60€.

Btw, I uploaded a reel/shorts from the event:

Have a great weekend,
