Lolita meet-up for Turner's exhibition

Yesterday we had a small lolita meet-up.
Well I call it small, but in fact it was the biggest in Cracow so far
(except from the one on anime convention).
I have no idea why it is so always so difficult to organize it here...
But yesterday finally six people have arrived :>

It was quite good day to make a meet-up.
People just thought that we are dressed-up for Halloween XD

We have met with a lot of friendly reactions.
Specially in a museum.
Yees we went to the National Museum
to see an exhibition with Turner's paintings.
Turner is not my favourite painter,
but of course his sentimental water-colours
have its charm.

My ticket got a little crumpled...

We were not allowed to take pics in the museum...
juts in a hall...

So all of us: 


Pink part:

Darker part:

And individual pics:

Elluin

Hatsu

Tomo

Ciotoko

Loivissa

And me (with Lillie Charlotte<3 )

And then we took photos outside



Then we went to a cafe.
Eh... this pics are in really bad quality...
Terribly light....



It was already late, 
so we had to say goodbye to each other.
But Hatsu had still some time
before her train to home
so we two went for ice creams <3

I love this pic <333

My wig got messy O_o

And then to the train station.
I always wanted such photos <3



Thanks for looking <3

Paradise Kiss

I waited for this movie quite long.
ParaKissu is one of my favourite manga.
I am generally big Ai Yazawa's fan.

It is no sense to compare the movie to the manga. 
Manga is a masterpiece
with authentic characters and one of the best ending ever.
The movie is just... nice.

But still I do not feel so disappointed.
Maybe because I was expecting something like that?
Maybe because my friend said me before that this movie 
is so horrible that she can not forgive them to make it.
After hearing it I expected something much worse
than I have received in the end.

One biggest unforgivable minus is George...
He is of this special manga characters
that you will always remember, but here he was just boring....
He lost all his charm....

Is it enough to forget this is manga's adaption.
Enough to forget about beautiful manga ending that
made me cry so badly
and just enjoy NICE love story 
in the background of the fashion world.

Two screenshots^^

Kyarmy!

I was bored before school today 
so I took..some pics
inspired by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu^^
Fun!


without puri decoration^^

Radio Aoi interviews

Finally both interviews are posted.
Because of stupid problems with the site it took so long...
They are both in Polish at the moment,
but today or tomorrow
they will be also available in English^^

So first the interview with Kamijo.
It is quite short, because we did not want to 
take too much his time before the concert.
We skipped some questions in the last moment.

Second one is with PiCa (Ant1nett).
This one was taken by me and Kira.
We were comfortably sitting in a cafe 
and had a lot of time to talk
so it is much longer

The Nightingale and the Rose

Oscar Wilde's fairy tales are one of the most beautiful 
things I have ever read. 
But today I would like to concentrate on only one story.
The Nightingale and the Rose


She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses,
 (...) but in all my garden there is no red rose.'

for want of a red rose is my life made wretched


He just needed a red rose.
A girl has promised to dance with him
if he brings her one.
Such small thing and all his happiness
depended on it.
But he could not find it...
The nightingale decided to help a miserable lover,
but he was not able to find one. 
Only one solution was left.

If you want a red rose,' said the Tree, 'you must build it out of music by moonlight, 
and stain it with your own heart's-blood. 
You must sing to me with your breast against a thorn. 
All night long you must sing to me, and the thorn must pierce your heart, 
and your life-blood must flow into my veins, and become mine.

The rose is changing 
from being pale like a shadow or a mist
to the redness of a blood. 
The nightingale gave his life 
to create the crimson rose.
In fact his efforts were senseless, 
because the girl refused boy's love in the end,
but what counts is the bird's devotion.
And it is important not because of
its moral value (such devotion could be called a stupidity), 
but because of its aesthetic beauty that is above its all. 

(...) and he threw the rose into the street, 
where it fell into the gutter, and a cart-wheel went over it

This story reminded me of the lyrics of Revenanr Choir.
When Kamijo sings
If you wish, I would become a rose.
the nightingale is exactly what I have in front of my eyes.
And then
記憶の中の赤に血を薔薇に変えていた
In a redness of my memories I am changing my blood into a rose. 

This fairy tale is so beautiful that I would love to 
see it in D or Versailles songs...
It would suit perfectly to them.

And for the end two the most interesting paintings.

I have found this absolutely gorgeous hair accessory
inspired by the tale *_*

X-Day

I have started to read this manga, well let's be sincere,
just because of the one character that is a Gothic Lolita,
but in fact it is a quite good story about loneliness.


Three students and one teacher talk on a chat room
about their problems and they decide to blow up the school. 
They are able to continue living just because they have a vision of X-Day
when they are going to realize their plan. 

It has just two volumes, but characters 
are showed in a really authentic way. 
Mr Money is beaten by his miserable mother
and he accepts such treatment, because he feels guilty
for ruining her life and wants to be useful.
Jangalian tries to escape from reality and is stalked
by his boss's daughter. 

11 has stopped training track because of her injury 
and sees how on her eyes a younger girl 
takes her position and additionally her bf has left her.

And for the end Polaris,
which interested me the most.
She is a really shy and lost girl
who is able to be self-confident 
only when she wears Lolita clothes.

In fact three first people
are having quite real problems,
but Polaris seems 
to be worried over seemingly small things
(but isn't the routine of life what makes us depressed the most?).
And in fact she is the one that tries to commit suicide 
in the beginning of the manga.

Jupiter's tale (her fav band) is breaking out.
The watch that I loved broke!
I got into another fight with my father this morning!
A girl sitting across from me looked at me and laughed!
I don't want to be on the rush hour train anymore!

Rika: How can such little things keep hurting you so much?

Maybe finally they will be able to help each other.
And they will delay X-Day until the far future.

Rose lipgloss

I forgot to post them before^^
My two new rose lipgloss^^

This one is from my sis Kira
Pure Desir de Rose
from Yves Rocher
It can be used as perfumes as well^^
We put it on out artificial roses
for Versailles concert^^


And the second one is from Wibo's rose collection^^

Its top is specially beautiful.

Their cosmetics are not so good,
but it all looks so cute
I would still buy it!


And changing topic
I have read quite good article about lolita today^^
It is really difficult to find objective article in mass media.

You may not be sure what you are looking at if you spot a woman 
wearing doll-like clothing, 
highly detailed accessories such as patterned stockings or ruffled cuffs, 
small hats, and long curled, flowing hair. 
Does she carry a small purse with handles? 
Does her clothing seem as if it's come from another century?

You've seen your first Lolita.

Check it here^^

Kyou no mii

今日のミー
(Me from today)
Sorry for Japanese, but I love 
when Kamijo writes it on his blog 
(me in katakana) XD


I know that not everybody will like 
this coord,
but as for me this striped scarf looks great^^ 
It adds a little punkish accent 
(together with the jacket)
to the sweet dress^^

And playing with puricute again^^

I am in so good mood today!
The day was long and boring
(three hours about Thales of Miletus...
OhMyGackt give me power...
I feel it perfectly now that
I study on the philosophy department...)
but then one mail made me smile...
hmmm too light word!
I am in seven heaven
and life got its perspectives again^^
By just one mail!
For the future: never lose hope!

Kaya and Satsuki AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it really true 
or HAVE I JUST GONE MAD?!
Maybe it is just a strange reaction 
of my brain? 

Gossips about Satsuki's concert I wrote about yesterday
are true!!!
More he will arrive together with Kaya!!!!!!
Too much happiness!!!
Seems like it is organised by Torpedo Production.
The same like Versailles!

I can not believe it!!!!!!
Poland please!!!!!
If not, I will go wherever they will perform.


*crying from happiness*

Silent jealousy

My today's mood can be described by a song
Silent jealousy (X-Japan).
Here are lyrics:

I'm looking for you
Trying to reach your roses
Carried away by the time
when being smashed by a maddening silence

You've gone away
From the stage
Leaving no words
There's just fake tears left
I look for a bouquet of roses decorated by pearls of fiction

I'm blind insane
In the red of silence
Now I've lost your love

a puppet fed by a illusssional love

Get me on my feet
Get me back to myself
Pretend you love me
look at me dyed in a scarlet up to my fingertips

I can not stand this serenade of loneliness
floating in a sea of virtual images
even if I hold my feelings
a bloodstained angel
has already woken up from a dream
I can not stop

Silent Jealousy
Don't you leave me alone
Falling into a sadness
decorated by a love that can not come back
in a middle of repetitive loneliness

Tell me true Wherever I go
I can learn to love this pain
I still want your love Stop this love
Erase the memory blooming into madness

I just wanted to stay with you
I just wanted to feel your breath of grace
I didn't know what to do
I couldn't say anything
When consciousness returned
Everything had been washed away
by the tide of time, even you
But the scars of memory never fade away
I can't stop loving you
Stop my tears
Stop my loving
Kill my memories

You dyed my heart in blood
No way to kill my sadness
Before leaving kill me
I am not able to see anything by my eyes
full of mad love
even now I miss you
Can't live without you

Silent Jealousy Falling in a dream
the memory that I hold
Stay in yesterday stop the time
Erase this repetitve loneliness

Take me back to the memory, to the dream

Silent Jealousy
Don't you leave me alone
Falling into a sadness
Kill me, Love

(Japanese part translated by me
sorry for a bad style, but
I do not have an experience with songs)

Still thinking about Kamijo...
or rather two Kamijos...
I love them in very different way,
but I still love them both^^
Like two different people...




My depression continues...
but thanks to my friends I feel much better.
Not everything is lost yet!
I am really happy to have such amazing friends...
I am not even worth them... 

And I read in tumlbr 
that before Versailles concert in France
flyers about Satsuki's concert
were distributed!
*nervously waiting for news*
Next dreamed concert?
Yay!

New shoes!

My general mood is terribly...
depressed... angry... so frustrated
or kill one person...
anyway...
Finally my shoes have arrived!
I reserved them in clobbaonline
in November (yes! LAST YEAR!).
When they were finally released two months ago 
I asked them for a hold as I was not prepared for paying 
(I almost forgot about them XD) 
and then I got a message that they sent it by a mistake 
and I do not even need to hurry with the final payment!

So after one year they are finally mine!

They arrived together wit DoL headbow..
I bought it specially to match my brand skirt...
but OMG this headbow is so ugly
that it almost made me laugh!
I will think twice before I will order anything from DoL again...

You can see here
how neglectful it is made...
and this metal headband....

My outfit from today
with new shoes^^
I have found this old pink fur
in my wardrobe^^
I think it makes an outfit more elegant.

And with my rose light <333

Versailles: the interview and the concert

Finally this great day has come. 
Me and Kira arrived outside the club around 10.
Quite late, but we got numbers the day before.
We were surprised that nobody was waiting there,
but we realized that the club is opened and people wait inside.
It was the first time that I encountered with the situation like that...
It was so convenient .
We could comfortably sit there and stay warm. 

First people waiting before the door to the concert hall.
We were distributing Ant1nett's flyers.
You can see them in this photo.

And more pics:
With Kira

And Kitsune <333 Hug <333


Aoy and Yuki
They had lollipops like always <333
And looked amazing^^

At 2 p.m Kira called Jay (tourmanager)
and we were informed that the interview will
be at 2:30!
It was a little stressful, because our translator 
has not been there yet....
But fortunately she managed to be on time. 
Then next problem appeared...
Jay said that the interview room is very small 
and that only one reporter and one translator can come inside....
Kira knew how important it was for me 
so she said that I can go. 
I am really thankful for choosing me..
I am new in the radio, but I am a big Versailles fan
so being trusted like that is a big honour.

We were leaded by Jay and Versailles manager 
through the backstage. 
It was my first time there so I was looking at everything with 
the greatest excitement.
Preparation on stage, 
their clothes hanging somewhere on our way...
Teru with his hair already made,
but in jeans and stylish T-shirt.  
Suddenly I heard that my phone is ringing...
I got really nervous because I was afraid that 
I will not be able to turn it off before the band will appear.
I was right.
We just came inside and before I realized Kamijo appeared 
in front of my eyes.
He greeted us with a smile and a slight bow.
I gave him rose-shaped lollipops
with words let's start interview with sweets.
Then he waited for us to sit first and then he joined us. 
Before I even started to read first question,
my friend called my again....
And my ringtone was 
Destiny- the lovers.....
I apologized and bowed my head,
but Kamijo just started to laugh 
and said oh it's my voice.
Finally I joined him with laughing XD

The interview was going on properly.
Kamijo spoke very slowly and used keigo (honorific speech).
In fact questions were also put in this way,
but he really used extremely polite language
what suited perfectly to his way of speaking
and melodic, delicate voice.
When his sentences were longer 
he asked us Gozonji desuka
(do you understand?)
and with every minute
I was more charmed by his gentleness and 
perfectly proper behavior.
Some of my friends were afraid if I will be able to survive it
(they know that I love Kamijo more than anybody),
but frankly I have to admit that I was not nervous at all.
I am crazy about Kamijo's stage image when he looks like
a fairy tale character, like my dreamed prince
and I cry when I hear his dramatic voice.
But now before me eyes I saw neat charming man
dressed in black
with sunglasses, fashionable shoes
and perfect etiquette. 
He was someone else.
But I can say it freely:
I fell in love with him.
Not with Kamijo,
but with this man in front of my eyes.

After the interview I spoke with him
for a while more privately
and even if I do not have a lot of experience 
in speaking Japanese,
I tried without a worry.
(he just said that I should speak slower..
well seems like I wanted to say everything on one breath...XD)
The he waited when we will leave the room first.
Kamijo is a real gentleman. 

When I went outside the backstage
quite big group of people
surrounded me 
and started to ask thousands of questions:
what he was wearing
how was he behaving
how he looked
what he said...
One girl made a microphone from her hand
and she put it in front of my mouth 
when I was speaking...
it really made me laugh XD
When I said that Kamijo's house is white and looks like Versailles
people got excited and questions started to be more stupid:
will he invite us there........... XD
Greetings for a girl who said
You talk with Kamijo, can I hug you.
It was cute XD

Then we were spending more time inside the club.
Photo, Ant1nett flyers and talking.
Thank you for all nice people
I was able to meet. 
I think that Versailles fandom is the best!!!

A girl with pink hair is the one 
who called me during the interview XD


And with Hizaki cosplayer
Hisako^^

Kenroh was able to concentrate 
on reading!
Really impressive!

Yasiu with a rose ^^
Like Kamijo XD

And some pics with other people^^
Not edited, but I still like them^^




Of course we had time for bubbles as well^^

Enough it.
Let's start with the concert review.
I finished in a second row
between Kamijo and Hizaki,
but then I moved closer to Kamijo
when one girl decided to go to the back.
Maybe the first I will say what disappointed me:
they did not play Flowery...
It is all.
Now only positives.

Even objectively speaking this concert was amazing.
Sounds quality was really good
and all members had perfect contact with fans.
I have never seen any bands 
with such friendly and opened behavior
during concert...
Kamijo was speaking
Thank you and I love you in Polish!
His Polish sounded better than English^^ 
The stage was low and the distance between stage and the barrier
was small
so Kamijo was able to put one leg on the barrier when singing.
Versailles is really a philharmonic quintet.
There are five (or rather six) of them on the stage,
but in fact we all join them creating the philharmonic.
We were not just looking 
we were fully participating in it.

Usually I jump and scream on concerts a lot
(like on YFC one),
but here I was just standing immovably
and looking on a beauty before my eyes.
And God said
let Versailles be perfection
- I read on tumblr
and this is exactly what I was feeling.
When they appeared on the stage I felt deeply moved
but I did not start crying until Love will be born again.
But then I cried until the end
with just small breaks.
Kamijo standing alone on the stage
and singing 
I’ll be with you 
I’ve never loved anyone like this before
Any time, every time
I want to stay with you
made me burst out...
It was other Kamijo than the one from the interview.
He was not real. 
They all were not real. 
They were just characters from my dreams
and they took me to the Wonderland
I have always dreamed about.
I think it is really easy to divide their real self 
and their stage image.
I think that even if Kamijo was my friend
I would still cry during concerts.

I was contemplating their outfits in detail.
Every single button was so beautiful
that it was making me cry again.
Hizaki looked like a living doll,
an angel who is too beautiful to be seen in the real life.
He is the most gorgeous existence in this world
- I thought.
And he moved himself with such a grace.
When I was touching his dress
I had feeling
like touching something saint.
I was doing it 
with a pious reverence.
I could not bear such beauty....
Teru's legs and belly...
Masashi's strong hands
Yuki's smile behind the drums.
Kamijo taking our roses and kissing them...
It was not just a normal concert.
It was almost mystical.
Like some kind of ceremony...
I have never imagined that 
their songs can sound so beautifully...
I was floating on a cloud of dreams.
The world has disappeared. 

I was not really conscious when it ended...

In fact we did not have to wait long until 
meet&greet.
They were all sitting
and exchanging greetings with fans
and even allowed to be hugged.
They look gorgeous in their Aatp outfits,
but I did not feel this godly atmosphere
which surrounded them when they were on stage. 
I expressed how thankful I am for 
giving me such an amazing time. 
And I could see "second Kamijo" again.
He recognized me from the interview
and asked if I liked the concert.
I said that all this beauty made me cry 
and I bowed my head
in a sign of a full respect. 

My only pic after the concert with Miriel.
It is small,
because we were both tired and our make-up were destroyed
so better let's skip details :>>>
Sorry for unfitting shoes,
but I had to put them on for the concert.

When I finally reached home
I burst into tears again.
It was definitely the best day in my life. 

And beauty is a form of genius-- 
is higher, indeed, than genius, as it needs no explanation. 
It is of the great facts of the world, like sunlight, or spring-time, 
or the reflection in dark waters of that silver shell we call the moon. 
It cannot be questioned. 
It has its divine right of sovereignty. 
It makes princes of those who have it.
(The picture of Dorian Gray- Oscar Wilde) 

That is why all Versailles members are princes.
The most beautiful ones.
