The · Boston · Gothic · and · Lolita · Society

The only weekend I really can't do anything is the 2nd weekend of August, since that's Otakon.

Thoughts?

I have a real name that I don't like much (. . .) so please call me Meep. I'm nineteen and I'll be a sophomore when I go back to school (and Boston) in the fall. (Right now I'm in Vermont, which is where I grew up.)
I've had fabulously good luck making friends with the last group I met up with in Boston (the BJD group - hello, if any of you are also members here!) so I figured it would be worth trying again even if I am woefully unprepared.

I won't be able to make it to any meet-ups until at least September (by which time I may have acquired some much needed items - such as, say, a petticoat), but in the meantime, you can always find me online (not much else to do up here).

Cupcakes,

I have been a lurker here for a while, so I finally decided to introduce myself.

My name is Katie. I am 18 and from Worcester, though I will be moving to Boston for college in a couple of months.

I first learned about Lolita during my freshman year of high school, when a friend introduced me to the fashion. I never really wore it, but from that point on I lusted after it. I loved the look of Lolita, but never really had the time to make myself any clothing. Right now I am finally making myself some Lolita clothing though!


I met a few Lolitas at AnimeBoston this year, and they were all such sweet individuals! Simply meeting them made me realize how lovely the Lolita community is, and I am now very interested in being more of a part of it.

I am hoping to attend at least one meet-up this summer, and will be sure to attend some of the meet-ups in Boston during the school year. I may take one of my friends along, as she is an absolute sweetheart, and she is very interested in Lolita fashion.


As a closing note, I just wanted to let everyone here know how kindly the Lolitas I have met have been, and how beautiful all of you are in the meet up photos I have seen! You are all very stunning! ^^


Love, peace, and happiness,

~Katie~

ooh yeah... do you usually wear your clothing to an event or change there? i admire your boldness!!:o

Anyway, i dont post much in LJ, but I like to read, so if you wanna be friends, i'll add you. my AIM is hitensi0n :]

Well it's nice to meet you all and hopefully i'll come to an event in the future :D

Did I miss anyone?

So anyway, I just need to know who exactly is going to need a ride from the train, and who might we willing to volunteer to drive and pick up other lolis and transport them to and from the train station.

Please let me know ^.^

When- As seen above, June 15th.
Where- Rosecliff mansion, Newport RI.

548 Bellevue Ave, Newport RI 02840
http://tickets.newportmansions.org/mansion.aspx?id=1001

Time- Meet at the mansion at 1:30 for those who don't need to be picked up at the train station in Providence. For those coming from Boston without cars and who need to car pool...I believe the train comes into Providence at 12:12pm or something of the sort.

I do need some more people who can car pool...anyone who is planning on driving and might be willing to meet us at the train station? I can fit three people in my car, and I believe we should be able to get another four in a friend's car. So I guess it depends on how many people are coming. Woo loli carpool!

Order of Events- First we'll meet at Rosecliff at 1:30. Probably take a bunch of pictures outside, then get in for a tour. As long as its not 20 people or more we don't need a reservation. Tickets are $20 at the door, but $15 in advance if you buy them at the website, link provided above.

After the tour...face it, we'll want to take a lot of pictures in the gardens or outside etc. After we're ready we'll go to Breton Point for a picnic, pictures by the sea, some bocce ball or something.....however if it rains we'll have to change those plans and head to a restaurant instead. Will have to keep a close watch on the weather and decide that rather last minute. Always good to have a backup plan!

Please do RSVP! If we do picnic, it will be pot luck, so everyone can either bring their own dinner or bring something for everyone to share. Don't really know what would end up being most cost effective/least chaotic >.>

Looking forward to seeing you all!

Has to be a Sunday, so....the 1rst, the 8th or the 15th? Please just let me know the BEST date, and if you are absolutely not available for any of those.

Thanks everyone! Glad so many are interested!

So everyone, this is what I'm thinking. Early June (it has to be a Sunday) Newport Mansions, followed by a picnic by the sea...(round of bocce ball anyone? XD) Or dinner somewhere in case it looks like rain.

I'm thinking Rosecliff, because it looks fantastically gorgeous and full of good places to take pictures outside! (Unfortunately there are no photos allowed inside the mansions)

beautiful isn't it?

I'm thinking I'm going to ask my mother in law, who is an ametuer photographer, if she'd like to follow us around and take semi-professional pictures of us.

What does everyone think? Preferred date? Etc. etc.

I still <3 Boston lolitas.
