Lolita & Kawaii Lifestyle Shops!

Hello everyone! This month I want to share some of the places I've found over the years that allow me and others to get their hands on "lifestyle" goods. While there are tons I'm missing, I wanted to share some of the ones I've ordered from or plan to order from. I hope this can act as a jumping off point for people stepping into the world of cute. I want to share the kawaii lifestyle with as many people as possible and I know some people struggle to find a starting point. That being said, I have not ordered from all of these stores personally and I ALWAYS recommend reading reviews before ordering to make sure you are getting what you want. Links to each store can be found directly under the screenshot that correlates with it. I have divided this into several categories: deco, pins, stationary, and miscellaneous. This post is not sponsored by any of these sites!

Please, after you look through this, let me know if you'd be interested in more curated shopping guides! I am more than willing to put together guides for accessories, lolita dresses, and more! There are many many stores out there and I know it can be overwhelming when you are starting out. Thank you.



Deco

All of these shops specialize in deco crafts! This is a great way to make everyday items really cute. There are many stores on Etsy that also sell pre-made items, if you don't want to do 
the work yourself.

October Store

Kawaii Cabochon

Candy Crystal

Misutikku


Pins

Enamel pins have really broken into the J-fashion scene over the past few years. Now you can buy almost anything imaginable in a durable piece of wearable art! Below are some shops that specialize in cute pins. There are also tons of one-off kawaii pins on Etsy & Storenvy. Know more? Let me know in the comments!

Merrytown

Ou Xu 
Shuangshuo

Stationary

I personally love journaling, planning, and writing letters. The world of kawaii stationary is large, arguably endless. I have listed MANY shops here but this is truly just brushing the surface. As with many other lifestyle options, Etsy, Storenvy, and Aliexpress are great places to do searches for specific items, characters, and franchises.

House of Novelty

Stationary & Papeleria

Misc.

These stores carry a variety of items! Many have home goods, plushies, and tons more. Some include stationary as a category but I've placed them here instead of in the stationary-specific section. Each of these shops has a large collection of cute items you can kill hours looking through.

Please be aware some of these shops may have adult-oriented content available. Young users should get parent's permission before viewing these particular sites.
