Baby the Stars Shine Bright Tea party in San Francisco

So BtSSB announced tickets for a tea party are going on sale tomorrow for a tea at the end of the month. I REALLY want to go badly. Do i make the 7 hour drive up north and risk not getting one of the 50 seats? I can't decide!!!!

So I mentioned to my AWESOME AND AMAZING husband about the BtSSB Tea thing. He was all, "ok let's leave at midnight"....and we did. We drove 14 hours round trip to San Fran and back so I could get the Tea Party ticket! While there I saw my first Lolita in the wild and nearly squeed! Thankfully, I was in the car reading while I waited for the store to open so I didn't geek out on her! By the time we got in, I had myself under control and was able to ask a few questions with out sounding like a fan girl. :P  I was too shy to introduce myself but she'll be at the tea so maybe I'll try again then!

I did buy a one piece from BtSSB- It's a white, print strawberry dress with a heart neckline and the "blouse" part is white eyelet material. Love! There was a skirt I wanted (I think I like the skirts/blouse combo more) but hubby likes the dresses since, to him, they are a more accurate representation of Lolita. So it's fine, I got the dress to please him (because owning a BtSSB dress is SUCH a sacrifice right? LOL) and since he was footing the bill, why not? I love it -strawberries are one of "my things" so making him happy was a side total benefit. My next piece is a Skirt for sure.

We also went to Angelic Pretty-the girl there was SUPER nice! Very helpful too. I bought over the knee strawberry socks and a white strawberry print parasol because the hubby was like, "OMG TOO CUTE YOU MUST GET!" Win! I'll post pics (to my non-existent audience) once I figure out how photo editing and such works. :)

It was a long ass trip no doubt, and I don't think I'd be all crazy again, but I'm pretty lucky I live close enough to visit!
