This is my 5th year doing a wardrobe post! I love doing it every year so I can see what I have and what changes I need to make for the coming year :) I also enjoy participating in the February "dress me up" theme that usually follows. For my own records I tried to find lolibrary links to as many items as I can find so I won't have to search for them again in future!
My wardrobe goals for this year is to purchase more otome type items or items that can be worn more easily outside of lolita. I would also like to continue to grow my collection of novelties and I'd like to purchase a new pink short sleeved blouse as the one I have is super cute but extremely prone to wrinkling.

Novelties
I've grown my novelties collection this past year! There are a few more things I'm interested in obtaining over the coming year. Mostly AP and BtSSB but I have a few other bits in there from other brands.
Missing: Angelic Pretty Pink Plate. (You can see it in last years pic here) and an Angelic Pretty Candy Jar is in transit!

Storage
I gained an actual wardrobe this past year which is fantastic because I was running out of room on my clothing rack! It's this ikea wardrobe which I painted back over 2 weekends.
Shoes! Since the wardrobe has 3 doors the first two are the dress and skirt hanging space and the third door opens onto my shoes and smaller parasols at the top. I should probably find a more efficient way to store shoes, perhaps I will add a shelf or two for extra storage space.
My blouses and dresses/skirts I incognito as non-lolita clothing reside in my built in closet.
My awkwardly shaped bags hang on the wall all of my totes are folded away in my regular closet which has a few shelves.
All of my wig suitcases and hatboxes live on top of my wardrobe, behind them are some awkwardly shaped lolita items I've crafted and an obi I haven't gotten a chance to wear yet.
Perhaps it's cheating using last years picture but I still keep my wigs in the same suitcase things as last year and have the same bedspread!
My super overfilled headbow holder. I need to either downsize or figure out a new headbow holder solution!
Though it's in a too awkward to take a picture of area at the moment I still have my antique jewelry armoire to hold my jewelry, wristcuffs, hair ties, etc.
Thank you for reading all the way to the end! :)
