`Future Event -- TO LOLITA's Swap Meet
Hello dolls~!
After a busy and fun-filled summer holiday with Atomic Lollipop, I am planning to host an annual event for my local Lolita community -- TO LOLITA. It's a swap meet opened to 3 communities: TO LOLITA, SO LOLITA, and J-S3CT and items that fit in the Gyaru, Lolita, Cosplay, BJD and Visual-kei can be traded or sold.
This event will be happening on Saturday October 1, 2011!!! Oh my~ Only 2 weeks left.** Please visit and click on "DATES" for more information regarding the venue/meet-up.
Dolly Pink will be showcasing some prototype accessories at this meet up and selling more fur accessories so please don't miss out on this chance if you want to see a variety of items being sold/traded.
Thank you for reading.

`Atomic Lollipop 2011 [Dolly Pink's Overall APop Experience]
Greetings~! My overdue post for Atomic Lollipop is finally here~
Atomic Lollipop, Toronto's first carnival convention dedicated to anime and music which took place on July 30-31 at the Sheraton Conference Centre [near Anime North's Doubletree Hotel]. Tickets costed $35-45 CAD depending on whether or not you had purchased the early bird special.
Let's start by saying that the attendence wasn't as big as Anime North's, however, in the next coming years I can possibly see an exponential growth similar to that of AN. Atomic Lollipop although small, had a little bit of everything for everyone to enjoy -- for example, there was rave concerts [for those who enjoy to dance], anime panels [for people to discuss about their favorite anime(s)], and fashion panels [for people interested in Harajuku fashion(s)]. This convention was meant to be a big "party" like event so all the hallways were decorated with big balloons and filled with upbeat music and ravers. With the big party happening all around the hallways, people wanting to buy anime merchandise were able to do so in the generously-sized dealer's room and arts/crafts in the artist alley located in the main entrance hallway. If you thought this wasn't enough, try running away from a huge tank with mad speakers in the hallways in lolita shoes!!!
During my 2 days there, I had little time to explore each activity happening at the con as I had to run around coordinating things. Even when I wasn't helping coordinating panels I would use whatever free time I have to sell at the Artist Alley so I apologize in advance if I don't have a variety of pictures of this event. Now fast forwarding --- Despite the fact that I was hardly at the artist alley table, Dolly Pink did really well in advertising and promoting the products as well as making a few new friends/connections --- Atomic Ami. I even donated a few prizes for the lolita panel which was popular as a lot of the people picked them out, so I know I will most likely donate a few things again in the future. After affiliating with Atomic Ami, I went to talk with Baby Pinku from Pinkly Ever After to catch up since the last time I saw her was at Anime North 2011.
Since I thought Dolly Pink did really well, I am going to try again for 2012 as I believe will have a strong attendence. So please see you there next year~~~!
Thanks for reading this long awaited entry~
Love,
Aya - Dolly Pink

`Another New Affiliate~! Atomic Ami
Hello everyone~!
It's been a long time since I updated this blog with new goodies but I wanted to announce Dolly Pink's newest affiliate addition -- Atomic Ami! After going and visiting Anime North's Crafters' Corner every year, I couldn't help but admire this one particular table that had a bunch of cute amigurumi crafts. Why? I admire this brand because of all the hard work and improvement these 2 girls [Eli and Bel] put into their crafts. Not only did their designs improve [on a creative spectrum], but their business tactics as well! I absolutely love each and everyone of their crocheted pieces and I felt because the pieces and the creators themselves are soo cute that Dolly Pink should be affiliated with them. I also wanted to share my love of Atomic Ami's crocheted toys with everyone by introducing them here.
Atomic Ami offers a variety of original amigurumi toys that range from cute fuzzy bears to bunnies and more~! Each craft is one-of-a-kind as the yarn they use varies from piece to piece or limited edition. Creating bears is a favorite to this local brand and their love to create cute pieces is guranteed to make your heart melt.
So if you're into cute & cuddly animals, please visit Eli and Bel's Atomic Ami and support them.
Thank you for reading.
Love, Aya - Dolly Pink

♥ Message From Aya
Hello Dolls,
Thank you very much for visiting Dolly Pink and adoring all of the accessories I made by hand. I put a lot of time and effort in making the accessories for Dolly Pink and it makes me feel super happy to know that a lot of other girls enjoy my work. My overall vision of gal fashions is what inspired me to create Dolly Pink and as you can see, the colors I mainly work with are pinks, white and black. The reason to why I chose to work with mainly these colors is because these are my favorite colors and I feel that they represent my interpretation of lolita and gyaru fashion(s).
Lastly, don't forget to sign the comment box so I can visit you back. ^__^
Love,
Aya
