Elegant Gothic Lolita

So I'm into Elegant Gothic Lolita (EGL or Lolita). It's something that I have always been into. I'm not sure why it appeals to me to be honest. I like the idea that you can dress like a princess and no one will bother you about it (unless they're some kind of hateful numbnut...).

I am very much into Sweet Lolita. I love the color pink (shock) and also black (also shock). I want to wear the pretty dresses and just generally have a good time. I want to sew my things and create new things for myself all the time. There's nothing wrong with this in my opinion.

I get a lot of comments about how Lolita is about children and things. This is not true. I do not like that people are saying that about it. It's pretty dark and disturbing when you think about it. A lot of it is based off of Alice in Wonderland, which in itself is a pretty disturbing story.

This doesn't really answer the question of what Lolita is though, does it? So...

Lolita is a type of dress that originated in Japan. The name hails from the book of the same name, "Lolita." It is seen as something of the Roccocco era in time. Think Victorian if nothing else. There is a lot of lace and frills. Some Lolitas actually joke and call themselves "rufflebutts." (I've seen it)

I love this style with all my heart and soul. I just wish people could accept some of my peculiar hobbies.

SJP-- Love In Your Dynamic 8-27-2016

http://prompts.submissiveguide.com/314 Hello my Little Hellions! Submissive journal prompt time!!! Today's prompt is: "Is love first or second in your dynamic?' So with the Batdaddy and myself, I believe that love comes first. We haven't been in our dynamic for the longest period of time (shortly before starting this blog actually). I am pet and He is Owner. But this is not the only way we are. We are boyfriend and girlfriend. We have been together for almost eight years now (it will be eight years, ironically, on February 14th, valentine's day which is probably our least favorite holiday, of next year) and it has been absolutely wonderful. Lately, there have been few problems. But this is normal for most relationships anyway. Mostly it has been my fault. I have not been home and I have working on a lot of projects other than our relationship. I have neglected some duties that He finds are important to him. I am currently doing my best to remedy this situati

TMI Tuesdays 6-28-16

Last weeks TMI Tuesdays   1. When sizing up (assessing) your romantic relationship, is there a couple that you envy? Why? (Can be a couple you know or famous/celebrity couple) No I don't think there is a couple that I envy. I personally love the relationship that my Owner and I have so I don't see others that way.   2. Thinking of your current relationship, which stage are you in? a. Infatuation stage – Intense attraction and an uncontrollable urge to be with each other, strong sexual attraction. b. Understanding stage – You both start getting to know each other better, and everything about your partner interests and fascinates you. c. Moulding stage – You each know what you want in a partner and you start moulding each other to change in effort to create a stronger, lasting relationship. d. If you have made it this far you are in the advanced stages of a relationship, which one best represents the current status of your relationship: 1) Stage of dou

SJP-- Flowers

"We all know that roses are a common symbol for love. What flower do you think describes your submission? Why?" I jokingly would say that a flower or plant that represented my submission would be poison ivy. Clingy and very itchy (wait, what?). Clingy because I have a tendency to sort of co-mingle with the person that I am with in a way that could become irritating to them, but is beneficial because I can protect us both. I don't feel right if I can't protect the both of us. I want my Top to be happy. I am glad that I have my Owner, who puts up with my crap every day and puts me in my place. Itchy because... well, it's sort of a metaphor for being irritating. I can become very irritating to people I am close to, because of how much I cling to them. I'm not going to lie (I try not to anyway, but you get the point), but I think I have a dependency issue. Now, if I was to suggest a real flower that represented my submission, I would think of it as a sort
