By chance, I was asked to come to my first ever lolita meet after I was asked to take a place for a girl who couldn't attend last minute. I've been following the lolita fashion for almost a decade, but I never knew there was a community this big in my city!
The theme was the Spring, since we were just entering the season at the time. There were so many people there and every single one of them were so charming and elegant. I knew only one person there at the beginning, as they invited me in the first place. The person I knew was one of the hosts, so they were very busy rushing about greeting everyone and getting things organised. Since I only knew that person, for the first several minutes I was feeling very lost and alone (Not their fault though, I knew very well that a host's job was a very busy and demanding one), but thankfully everyone was really welcoming, went out of the way to include me and made sure I felt really welcomed. I came out getting to know most of them, and there were a few girls I got on really well with and hit it off straight away which made me really happy.
