I know Lolita isn't cosplay, but it doesn't really fit anywhere else lol
So I didn't see a lolita thread..

Day: Day0 Friday
Time: 4pm
Location: Rose garden in the park

Anyone?

PaigeLoe · « **Reply #2 on:** January 24, 2013, 11:17:29 pm »

Last year I am pretty sure that the Portland/Oregon Lolita Tea and Cake Society had a group that met on day zero. I'm not sure what they have planned this year, but I will most likely be sporting some Lolita that day.

ichigo_m. · « **Reply #3 on:** January 25, 2013, 09:08:25 am »

If I end up making my Lolita dress I might wear it on day 0. (:

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #4 on:** January 25, 2013, 01:46:55 pm »

I will be wearing mine on day) as well because I don't want to walk around getting my actual cosplays dirty that I may not be able to wash easily lol Plus....Less hot and stuff lol
And Ichigo, you BETTER make that music one!! That print was WAY too awesome lol

kappa roll · « **Reply #5 on:** January 25, 2013, 07:18:02 pm »

That would be awesome. We should all meet on day0 for don't lolita fun times

kappa roll · « **Reply #7 on:** January 25, 2013, 08:31:05 pm »

i love this plan! <3

would anybody be interested in possibly having a little tea party? i might be able to scrounge up a little traveling tea set and bring some snacks and a thermos of tea.

if anyone's interested...

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #8 on:** January 25, 2013, 09:50:45 pm »

If you want, me and Ichigo were already talking (on coscom) about running a meet up. If you wanna bring tea that would be awesome (I don't drink tea but I'm sure many others will love you for it). I've never been to this con OR the city..So I don't know where we could have this at..But day0 we can all meet for this (I wish more people would post too....

kappa roll · « **Reply #9 on:** January 25, 2013, 11:26:55 pm »

well, there's a nice big lawn/gazebo area that is suitable for leisurely hangouts. so we could do something there.

let me know if yall wind up deciding to host a meet! i'd love to go to one!

ichigo_m. · « **Reply #10 on:** January 25, 2013, 11:28:14 pm »

I think that would be great!
My dress won't really be lolita I don't think. More of a simplified version. But I'd still love to hang out with everyone and have some tea! (:

I'm thinking do both the tea party and hangout at the same time. Make life easier lol that seems like a perfect area

kappa roll · « **Reply #12 on:** January 26, 2013, 12:45:12 pm »

well, a tea party is a hangout of sorts. but this sounds lovely! since i'm hosting a maid cafe at the end of february, i'm gonna have a number of recipes (some of them vegan and gluten free) that i can make.

Yea true lol
That would be awesome. I can get some goodies..I'll be in sweet lolita, and I can bring sweets like sugar cookies, cupcakes and other stuff

kappa roll · « **Reply #14 on:** January 26, 2013, 01:57:44 pm »

oh gosh wow that'd be so cute! and since i'm gonna be all classic, i can bring little tarts and finger sandwiches.

Hey everyone, So are we for sure planing a Lolita meet-up on Day 0 then? I got these kool little ring things from fred meyer a few weeks back (they are cupcake topers) and since I am bringing cupcakes to go along with my Sweet Lolita coord, I will be passing them out with the cupcakes and so on.

kappa roll · « **Reply #17 on:** March 23, 2013, 01:05:18 am »

aww that's so neat!

i'm really excited!

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #18 on:** March 23, 2013, 09:54:31 pm »

Me too lol Also, if I DO get into the AA, I'll have a friend with me and she will be joining us.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #19 on:** May 13, 2013, 09:51:09 pm »

Hey, so....I may be late on day0..I'm trying to figure it out. I have to get a ride from my dad. If I don't get into the AA, I may just go early like on a train or something with my friend (I know you wanted to go early too, we can talk). If we do that we will for sure make it in time. But if I DO get in the AA I need to make sure my dad can bring my stuff..He's taking a vacay down there to his gf's family's house so he will be able to bring that stuff. I guess we will see..

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #20 on:** May 14, 2013, 08:04:32 pm »

I will be running this now. I will no longer be in the AA (studio decision) so I will be there in time to run this. We need a time. Onbiously it's on day0 as that's already been mentioned. I'm thinking maybe 4pm? or 5pm? It will take a few hours for me and my friend to get there. so I wanna make sure we have time to get settled.

Princess Hana · « **Reply #21 on:** May 15, 2013, 08:21:11 am »

That sounds fun me and my friend were going as gothic or classic Lolita day 0.

bunny_jean · « **Reply #22 on:** May 15, 2013, 10:27:24 am »

We did have a meetup last year. If you guys want to plan something, go ahead. I don't know if I'll bring Lolita or not to Kumoricon. I'd maybe go to a Day 0 meetup. If you want, you can join the Portland Lolita Tea and Cake Society on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/249963740322/ Just be aware that it is a closed group, so you must be approved by an Admin (me, most likely, lol); to be approved all you need to do is make sure that your location is Public, and in Oregon/Washington. Once you've been added you can plan with us or just post the meetup as a group event through the page!

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #23 on:** May 15, 2013, 11:20:51 am »

Princess, awesome, see you there.

Bunny, I only started this because no one else did. Others can go ahead and try to facebook you guys, but I'm not going to. Not only do I not have facebook, but I live nowhere near there

Jacob_Blackfeather · « **Reply #24 on:** May 15, 2013, 10:35:47 pm »

So I have my lolita I am bringing to con but it's more Gothic classical I think I am new to this so I don't know but I would really like to meet people!

Don't matter, you are welsome in whatever you are wearing lol I'd live to see it though.

Jacob_Blackfeather · « **Reply #26 on:** May 16, 2013, 12:48:21 am »

I will get some pic's in June of it then I will post one here for you!

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #27 on:** May 16, 2013, 10:38:05 pm »

And I will do the same. I'm waiting for it do be done so I can't do much till then lol

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #28 on:** May 19, 2013, 07:46:19 pm »

Ok we really need to figure out a time and place. I want to hit up a pool party at 7 so it can't be past that

RozenMaiden_Girl · « **Reply #29 on:** June 23, 2013, 04:38:53 pm »

If we have a tea party day 0 then yes. I would love to go.

I am wearing my OTT sweet for the ball.

That's what we are shooting for, yes. I should arrive in the area around 1pm. I'm thinking of having this at maybe 4pm So I have time to unpack (and other's should too). This way, I can get ready and make sure I remember my cupcakes and cookies and rings (not sure if I mentioned it, but everyone also gets a free little ring..Thingy..They are cupcake toppers but they were cute and I have a ton..

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #31 on:** June 24, 2013, 10:50:32 pm »

By the way, I got my dress last week. Finally took a pic:

We're planning on having the Kumoricon Fashion show again this year. I believe it will be on Monday. Last year a bunch of Lolitas showed up on stage to show off their outfits.

Please plan on that.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #33 on:** June 26, 2013, 05:07:59 pm »

Well, I'm not gonna be doing that. I'm only wearing this for day0.

Invader spleen · « **Reply #34 on:** July 02, 2013, 06:30:44 pm »

I wasn't planning on wearing my dress, but maybe I will. It's more of a maid dress, but any time there is a tea party, I'm in~~. I have plenty of teas to bring, is it okay to bring some loose leaf teas? I suppose I don't know how to make them out in the park though.
I will be there by 4 if that's the agreed time.

Show up anyway lol
More then Lolitas are allowed ya know haha I accept anyone, we only say Lolitas because it's what the majority will be there (whoever shows up that is). And it seems 4 works haha No one said no yet so..

By the way, I will have 24 cupcakes, and a box of mixed cookies. The cupcakes will be made by my dad's co-worker (I would kill for these, they are that good haha) and I will have Snickerdoodle and Red Velvet. The 2 best ones she makes lol I will also have sugar cookies (both normal and lemon), chocolate ship, and peanutbutter. No worries about allergies either. I will have them separated so none are touching other flavors.

Invader spleen · « **Reply #36 on:** July 03, 2013, 12:50:41 am »

Okay! I the teas I have are:
loose leaf: Lychee, Blueberry/pineapple, I might have more then.
bagged: White peace, vanilla (x2), peppermint, Bavarian Wildberry

I might have more by then, and I'll try and brew it ahead of time (especially if there is some agreement on which we want to try more). Maybe someone has some portable hot plates or something we could use to make hot water? We'll figure something out! : )

Well, I'm not fond of tea, myself, so I will bring my own drink, but since it IS a tea party, we will obviously need some. I think everyone else's input would tell ya if those are good choices or not. I think you should anyway. I don;t have anything else you need either, so hopefully someone has one..Someone HAS to lol

ichigo_m. · « **Reply #38 on:** July 03, 2013, 10:13:45 pm »

If I'm there on day 0 I'll be here in my Lolita from Bodyline (Though a more casual chord).
I'll bring some cookies. (:

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #39 on:** July 03, 2013, 10:58:11 pm »

The local Lolita community on Facebook is in the workings of planning a dinner, meet and shoot on Day 0.

Here is the event for more details and to 'RSVP' (if we get lots of people for the dinner, we may reserve a spot):
https://www.facebook.com/events/188557787977576/
(also tell me if the link works)

I am still trying to narrow down my cosplay list, but I do think I will want to wear my Gothic Aristocrat outfit I am planning to this.

Azuraschampion · « **Reply #40 on:** July 04, 2013, 01:07:52 am »

no the link doesnt work. It just takes me to my event page.

bunny_jean · « **Reply #41 on:** July 04, 2013, 08:59:10 am »

I think it's because the event was specifically made for the Lolita group on Facebook, so if you're not a member of the group then it won't show up. But we're planning on meeting at Little Italy's Trattoria at 5:00 on Day 0, then go to the park to take photos at dusk. Please let me know if you're not part of the group on Facebook, but are planning on coming, because I think I will need to call ahead to reserve their back patio because our group will be rather large...

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #42 on:** July 04, 2013, 06:38:11 pm »

When did they start the event? More then likely they will be taking all the people that would have showed up to the one I started since I'm sure no one is gonna go from one right to another..That kinda sucks..

bunny_jean · « **Reply #43 on:** July 04, 2013, 06:55:27 pm »

I planned it because not a lot was getting planned here, and a lot more people are in the Facebook group than are on here.

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #44 on:** July 04, 2013, 08:25:34 pm »

Oh I didn't know it was you specifically, so sorry if I said anything to upset you.

Well, is it still even gonna work with me having one too? I mean they will be only an hour apart, and since there's almost no Lolita's on here (from what I see in this thread) is mine even a good idea to have? I mean, I'm still new to the Lolita style/meetups/ect. so I'm not sure if I should even be doing this since I you guys are the real group that has real events..

bunny_jean · « **Reply #45 on:** July 04, 2013, 08:54:39 pm »

No! Go ahead and plan this. If people don't want Italian or don't have the money, or just want to hang out before going to get Italian food, then they can go to yours.

Anyone can plan anything, but I know that a lot of people that do Lolita regularly are on Facebook, and aren't on here, and there didn't seem to be a lot of interest on here (probably why our previous Lolita thread died). So go ahead and plan this, just be aware that the Kcon forums aren't the best way to get word out about a Lolita meetup. If you'd like I can add the information from what you plan to my event page on Facebook?

Sailor-Jeimi · « **Reply #46 on:** July 04, 2013, 08:59:30 pm »

Oh, I kinda figured that much lol. I just won't use facebook for personal reasons, so I can't join any of the groups or anything on there. I figure, a lot of Lolita's that attend cons still actually cosplay, so I figured there would be those ones on here at least lol

bunny_jean · « **Reply #47 on:** July 04, 2013, 10:15:25 pm »

Yeah, a lot of us do, but not many that I know use the forums on here very regularly, and if they do, they don't post or I don't know their username.

Lol well that doesn't help then ^_^ Oh well. I guess I will see how this one goes and see if it's worth doing next year

bunny_jean · « **Reply #49 on:** July 04, 2013, 11:06:08 pm »

Yeah. I added to my event that you guys were planning a picnic/tea in the park at 4:00. Is that accurate, or do you want me to add anything?
