The train ride was quite long, and we changed trains in Lund. We talked, slept and ate stuff on the train and applied make-up while trying our best not to apply it crooked, since the ride, though not bad, wasn't completely without bumps.
This was the outfit I had planned on wearing
I even worked on a hat for the coord.But then I tried it all on, and it was just overwhelming! I couldn't imagine myself on the train, sitting for so many hours.
So in the elleventh hour, I decided on this coord instead. It's my favorite dress, and it's so easy to wear. Also, I love that hat so so much!!
I also got these gorgeous shoes for the coord, they're from Bullboxer, and originally had powder colored chiffon bows, but I changed them to these homemade bows instead.
Sabrina and I both made business cards, but didn't get a chance to use them
Sabrina on the train, listening to... I dunno, probably A Very Potter MusicalWe had just crossed the bridge to Sweden.
We arrived in Stockholm a few minutes past 12 (if I remember correctly) and then Sabrina got out the map we had printed out. However, as we had forgotten to specify the exact house number, the route we'd gotten only led us to the right street, not the right place XD So after some walking in the wrong direction, we turned around and finally arrived at Tokyostop around 12.40.
What we saw was a looooooong line of people! And so we just tried our best to get into the right mindset of waiting :3 There was many very pretty lolitas, but also a lot of regulars, scenekids and such. Two girls in front of us were very noisy and squeed a LOT, all the time, tumbling around and saying a few japanese words to eachother. They did get on our nerves quite a lot, but we did our best to ignore them and reason that they were very young and probably very overly excited about the loppis.
We stood in line for more than two hours, and at one point we were so scared that we wouldn't get a chance to get inside at all. The line was still very long, and the hands of the clock crept closer and closer to 16.00 were the loppis would close! What if we didn't get in at all?! Then we'd spent 1104 dkr. on getting to stand in line!! Oh the angst XD We actually made a pagt to leave at 15.45 and hit H&M and Lindex if all else failed, but then the line suddenly moved, and we got inside around 15.00! And OOOOOOOOOOH SO MUCH BRAND!! I know I've already been to Japan and visited plenty of shops, but it's been a while, and there were so much pretty stuff!! Both brand, original designs, homemade accessories (both sweet, classic and goth) and some things that looked vintage to me.
I got quite starstruck as I saw both Katja and Maria, amazing awesome bloggers who've got so much sass and talent, and whose blogs I've followed for a long time!
After much oohing and aaahing, I decided on getting the long version of Innocent World's Christina dress in green, as well as getting one of Katja's rings (forgot to take a photo of it for this entry tho'). Sabrina also her hands on some brand, but she'll post about herself, I'm sure.
We spend around 20 minutes inside, and then left. The line was still very long, when we got outside, so I hope everyone left got a chance to get inside.

On our way back, we passed this store and I used the chance to snap a shot.Nobody at the loppis actually saw what we were wearing under our coats as it was so very cold standing in line ( I tell you, sandals looked good, but was a bad idea really).
We also went to H&M and Lindex, where we fell in love with summerdresses and Sabrina got a fancy hat. On our way to the loppis, we'd passed a church which is very close to the station, and we agreed on doing outfit shots there.
Sabrina was so nice as to lend me a matching bag, and I now know I need one just like it!!

We took the train home at 18.00 and were pretty busted, but we were in great spirits and listened to A Very Potter Musical ("I take my foot *dudidudidoodoo* My tiny foot!") and slept etc. Again we had to change trains in Lund, but everything went smooth.
Close-up of the print of Sabrina's gorgeous dress ( the one she wore for this trip)
Soooooo sleeepy!!
Sabrina is NOT amused to be NOT sleeping
My new dress! I love it so much!! It's SO soft and pretty!I paid 1200 for it, and I think it was SO worth the trip!!
I hope that next year the new venue will be a lot bigger, and that maybe there'll be some events, like fashion show, music etc. I dream of small tables where girls can sit down and talk. I dunno XD I'll go again for sure!!
See some gorgeous photos from the venue here, there's some very beautiful girls and lots of pretty stuff to see!
