Lifestyle lolita
What is a lifestyle lolita?
and do I consider myself to be a Lifestyle lolita?
I found it hard trying to answer this weeks topic. I've never considered myself to be a lifestyle lolita nor do I go out of my way to make sure everything I do is related to lolita somehow. However, I guess that it doesn't rule out any habits or hobbies I have that could be considered
I've looked into the definitions or rules and found a lot of different opinions about what make a lifestyle lolita.
F Yeah Lolita has some posts including this one about the notion of a pure maiden.
Now to the question, do I think of myself as a lifestyle lolita?
The answer is no not really but I do think I do some of the things that would be considered as a lifestyle lolita be they behavior or pastime.

Things I like that are lolita lifestyle are things like high tea, sewing, crafting, going to meet ups, and trying to bring the aesthetic into my everyday life a little although I don't attempt to lolify everything just my bedroom at the moment.
I love things like high tea (doesn't every lolita?) which I had the other day but I'll save that for my next post.
