It's been incredibly rainy here in Taipei -_-
I was running late and took a taxi.

But you have to brave the weather to get to a meetup!

The theme for this meetup was "perfume bottles" and I sewed a dress that was perfect for the theme! If you follow me on instagram you would have seen it already~
We met at a lovely little cafe called
好時光/Plus Belle Arts Bistro because we had a coupon for shared set meals.

| Eggs Benedict (shared) |
 |
| Teddy's pink wig that I made for her ^u^ |
The dessert is an iconic "honey toast" dessert, but the deconstructed version! The original is actually a hollowed out loaf of bread you must cut yourself, but this version is much easier to eat ^_~
 |
| Neko and I ordered matcha flavor |
Neko was the only one who ended up not wearing a perfume dress, which is too bad because she could have had triplet coords with Doro and Hako!
 |
Twins!
Doro, Hako |
Instead, she got to draw the next month's theme... which ended up being my suggestion from about two or three years ago, POKEMON!! It's going to be a challenge but I have much more lax "rules" about adhering to the theme ^_~ Pokemon is a difficult one to pull off without looking like Cosplay for sure!

Neko
Still gorgeous in a Rabbit Alice print dress |
I didn't get a very good outfit shot, and hadn't had time to take one myself this morning as I was very late!
The print of my dress actually very closely resembled Amelie's Axes Femme dress!! So we were "faux twins" today~
 |
| Me, Amelie |
We even coordinated similarly using pearls. Classic perfume bottles just seem to go very well with pearls, don't you think?
Though the cafe has a limit of 90 minutes for coupon users, they ended up not dismissing us at the end of our time, which is good because I had been an hour late to the meetup O_Q

| Group Photo! |
There was one other Lolita, Nara, who was present, but she preferred not to take photos so I won't post any of her.
