Hello dear readers, how are you? Thank you for your lovely birthday messages, I had a nice day picnicking in the country :)
Now it's time for the second installment of Austen and the Abbey!
The beautiful location for this day of the event was Stoneleigh Abbey in Warwickshire, the home of Jane Austen's ancestors.
The West Wing, which is the main facade of the house.
The picturesque gatehouse, which dates back to the 12th and 14th centuries.
The bed in Queen Victoria's bedroom (she stayed here too!)
A wood-panelled room with fancy red velvet chairs.
Lolis taking a tour!
The lady in regency costume who gave us the tour.
Me and my friend Bree!
The saloon, where the fashion show was held. Today's show featured Fairy wish, Atelier Pierrot, Juliette et Justine (I got to wear an amazing Red Riding Hood coordinate!) and Baroque.
The library.
Fairy wish tights! They are amazing and have cockatiels on them!
Books in the library.
Tapestry-work chairs.
Some rather nice tassels.
I feel really lucky to be from a country that has so many wonderful and well-preserved buildings like this. It was a great location for a lolita event and I think it was especially good for the Japanese guests, who got to do a little sightseeing along with their work.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures! See you next time,
Sapphira
What a great location! Everything is so pretty!

ReplyDeleteYou have such a cute blog! ♥ Just found my way here and no idea why I haven't before! :D
ReplyDeleteI was actually trying to look for Kaho's blog, because I've been missing it and haven't seen it for a long time. I found out that her blog has become private or possibly she doesn't do it anymore..don't know :/
Omg the place looks simply gorgeus! ♥ ♥
Would be a dream to live in a place like that, but the heating and upkeep costs etc must be huge. x) Oh..the gardens..heavenly!
I really like your style and think I'll stick around. ^^
