Chibi fashion!

I want these clothes by Loving Heart Designs. *_* The illustrations are so cute - and they're chibi! Now how perfect is that? They've got other cute designs as well: "kawaii" and "disney"... I believe I love google. (BTW, if you google "chibi child", I'm on top of the list. Muahaha! *cough* Okay...)

These are the kind of T-shirts I like - packing for Japan I realized that I hardly own any T-shirts without prints on them. And those I usually plan to decorate.

There's a slight chance I might buy some of these in Japan as well... *sigh*

Look, Karoline, cupcakes!

Soracon + Lolita meetup

In the beginning of August I went to a anime-convention called Soracon, lasting for two days, arranged by japani. It's basically a convention for everyone and anyone interested in Japan, manga, anime, cosplay, J-pop/rock and Japanese sub-culture. <(o^__^o)>

The first day was originally going to be held outside, with games and barbecue, but since it was raining we went cosplay bowling in stead! XD I dressed up as Anna Kyoyama from Shaman King, but I didn't get any good photos of it. That's too bad.

The second day was held at Oslo kongressenter. I went as Temari from Naruto again (debuted at Desucon), and took the bus downtown in my costume. As son as I arrived at Oslo kongressenter, I realized that there'd be more people than I expected. The line went all the way into the street! Still, since I'm a good girl, I went to stand in the back of the line. I started talking with the L-cosplayer standing next to me. Her name was L(ise), and she came from Fredrikstad. We became friends pretty quickly, and ended up hanging around Soracon together. I took lots of pictures of cosplayers.
It was so much fun!

It was quite amusing walking around in my costume carrying a giant fan in the middle of Oslo - you get a lot of funny reactions from people. One guy at Oslo S shouted "Look, it's Temari! Cool!" when Lise and I ran by to catch her train. XD

Day 1, bowling:
Rena goes for the kill...

Day 2:
Mononoke Hime~!

I loved this guy's cosplay! Ryoga (Ranma 1/2),
the only character I can relate to when it comes to sense of direction...

Shaman King

They were playing tor Sasuke...

Rena from Higurashi! I glomped her! XD

The day after Soracon, I had agreed to have a lolita (as in the Japanese street fashion, not the book) meetup with my friends Anne, Rakel and Eirik. We met at outland, where we played a round of the card game munchkin before we decided to go to an Indian restaurant. It was lovely! (And people complimented our clothes. XD) The food was really good too~ I had a great time!

At the restaurant:

My friends being cute <3

Aaawww, aren't we adorable?

Girls in frilly dresses attract attention - because we're worth it! XD


In the evening I went to se "Mamma Mia!" the movie (ABBA) with grandma and mom. A little girl came up to me and said something along the lines of "you look really nice". She was very cute! The movie was so much fun - it was really funny and perfect for the three of us! I recognized the songs and there were wonderful actors. I wouldn't buy the dvd, but it was a great watch and it really put us in a good mood! \(^_^)/ Honey, honey~
