ANGELIC PRETTY SWEET LOLITA JSK, ONE-PIECES, JUMPERS IN MARUIONE BOUTIQUE. PRETTY CANDY PINK PRINTS, HEART PATTERNS, FRILLY LACE BOWS.
Welcome to the seventh floor of the new Marui One: a Barbie dollhouse candyland come to life! (Compare it to the old Sweet Lolita floor.) The Pink Panther award goes to Angelic Pretty’s corner of the room.
A lace-trimmed, sweet-printed skirt a day keeps the… ho-hum away?
Love or hate? For some reason, I imagine a Japanese girl with a shaved head wearing this dress. Ah, blasphemy…
Could this outfit be any pinker? Would you wear it? Personally, I shy away from the color…
Rilakkuma and his plush teddy bear friends round out the floor. Hold on to your bloomers – I have two more sets of photos from this floor! Also on the way: Moi dix Mois/Kozi concert report, the new Christon Cafe, TokyoMade Market, my skimpy maid outfit and the cover of Cute Yummy Time…
Song of the Day #156: Sheena Easton – Telefone (Long Distance Love Affair) (We sang this at all-night karaoke! What are your favorite karaoke tracks? I’m going to make a list…)

JAPANESE TEENAGE LOLITAS: CUTE GIRLS IN GOSURORI, SWEET & CLASSIC LOLI DRESSES OUTSIDE GACKT VISUAL KEI CONCERT, SAITAMA ARENA.
Japanese Lolitas love Gackt. I spotted many a pink frill outside his concert at Saitama Arena. The girl on the left came with her mother (Gackt has many crazed elder fans)!
It takes dedication to wear full Lolita outfits during the stiflingly hot Tokyo summer! I love the Classical Loli look on the right.
Many Lolita teens came in pairs. About 80% of the audience was female and under the age of 25.
But not everyone looked like she came out of a Laforet dressing room. Gackt’s fans come from every style tribe. The only recurrent theme was the official T-shirts from this tour, which sold out fast. (Mosey over to this post for more photos of Gackt concert-goers and cosplayers.)
Off to meet Nathan of HearJapan, followed by an all-night Goth/Lolita/Cyber party… I’m going to wear my new Lolita dress and eye makeup. If you follow my Twitter, you’ll know what I’m referring to!
Song of the Day #154: Sex Virgin Killer (Yukiro has a poster of this band on his wall. Ahhh their hair looks like streams of shooting blood!)
