Halloween 2009 - Sweet and Fun

Another Halloween has come and gone. I went to a few parties over two weekends, made some new friends and baked some lovely cupcakes that everyone enjoyed.



Victoria Suzanne at Lolita Charm wrote a special Halloween Edition of her blog on Oct 31st. If you haven't seen it please check it out. I adore her blog. She is creative, talented, intelligent and very pretty also. She has a wonderful sense of design, fashion and the things that appeal to all of us girls.



Love
Andrea Nicole Baker.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween to all my friends and admirers. Hope you are planning to have a fun time this Halloween!

"Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble." – William Shakespeare

"There are three things I have learned never to discuss with people: religion, politics and the Great Pumpkin." – Linus from 'It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown'


Noumi Kudryavka, also known as "Kud" for short, is a girl who is a quarter Japanese, and three-quarters Russian. Her grandfather was Japanese, and per his influence on her, she came to know much about the Japanese culture, including the language. She is very bad in English, though. She is Riki's classmate and is in the home economics club. Kudryavka has a pet Siberian Husky named Strelka. The hat and cloak that she wears were handmade. She spent most of her childhood traveling around the world, and her home country is a small, southern nation closer to the equator; this is the reason for her hat and cloak — she finds Japan cold due to her country's climate. Her favorite phrase is "wafÅ«!"

100 Books sold! WOW! Thank you all!

I did a recent check of my sales from Blurb and was thrilled to see that I have sold 100 books to date. Half of those sales were from my two most recent photo books. Now I have to find a way to encourage those who purchased my books to write an endorsement! If you are one of those wonderful people who has been following my blog and purchased one (or more) of my books please take a few minutes to sign on to Blurb and write a short endorsement! Thank you.

My most recent portfolio has over 300 pages of modeling photos from the last 6+ years. The best option is to order the Hardcover Image Wrap book. It's a great coffee table book.

As you can tell I am so excited about and interested in Gothic and Lolita fashions and lifestyle. I have only had this book available for about 2 weeks and already it has sold more than 20 copies.

There are 3 other books that are available also. One of my favorites is "The Bride" which is a collection of bridal photos taken at two very famous locations in the Atlanta area. Centennial Olympic Park and Stone Mountain.

Loli Halloween

I went to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens this past week to view a wonderful exhibit of scarecrows. The weather was sunny and temperate. A beautiful afternoon for a stroll. Of course, being in full Sweet Lolita, I got a lot of attention. The more precious response was from little girls who asked if I was a Princess. But we all know the answer to that question! Giggle.

The first photo is my favorite. A Lolita Scarecrow. She is so cute and adorable! Don't you adore the pink lace sash?








This one takes a bit more imagination. But its not hard to see a gorgeous ballerina in motion. Notice she is dancing on one leg while the other leg strikes the perfect ballet pose in perfect balance with with the arms.


Much more to come on Halloween.
Love
Loli Andrea
