I do believe this was my first ever Lolita fashion photo shoot! Despite being a longtime fan of Lolita fashion, and having thrown together a few simple Lolita-inspired outfits, I did not own any Lolita dresses until my friend Lynleigh started her own Lolita brand, Sweet Rococo. Somehow I didn’t get around to putting together a full coord until my friend Lionel suggested we go to the park and do a photo shoot! As you can see, I didn’t even have a Lolita blouse back then, and just wore a plain blouse. Headbow and earrings also by Sweet Rococo. Photos by Lionel Lum, January 3, 2009.
