At Anime Expo we did a 5 person Pastel a la Mode photo shoot. I'm so happy we all got together for a shoot! We got a lot of group shots, some singles, and doubles. The photos start out all pretty and serious but by the time laila_astri and I get our turn....well you'll see.

So, armed with a good 20m of evil synthetic lace my mum gave me and not many ideas, I decided to make a simple punk lolita/h.Naoto inspired black dress. I found a basic pattern in my Gosu Rori mag and altered it a bit but didn't realise what kind of trouble I got myself into D:~ (To be honest, I am more into classic lolita and up til now only made classic lolita dresses/skirts =_=)

(Yeah, I know this isn't exactly goth lolita nor punk lolita - I don't even know how to classify this dress anymore so feel free to delete this post if it's not relevant XD;;)


Outfit

I am just wondering cause i am nosiey person, :-)

what age is everyone and where they from

:-)

takara

what type of jobs would be consider most suitable for a loli-life style?
just got curious because funding for outfits have to be earned one way or another

Hey ladies! 
I hope you can help me out :'( *sob*
I was going to get my brand new (1st brand) meta dress today, and it arrived at my house with a 70$ CUSTOMS FEE?!!? whats going on? please help me!!

So I've read a lot of posts on here about girls with size 11 (US) feet complaining about not being able to find shoes so I wanted to tell everyone I recently found some that fit :) The rocking horse shoes on http://stores.ebay.com/Little-Chili-Lolita-Shop say they go up to a size 43 or 10.5 so I tried ordering a pair. I thought they would be too small but they actually fit an 11 just fine. They are a similar size to some of my other size 11 dress shoes. The prices are also quite good and the quality was better then I expected :)

If anyone knows of any other sites carrying lolita shoes in 11 I'd love to know!

does anyone know if the past winter lp meta skirts (black and white velor ones that didn't fit a lot of us) was ever put up on their site? i was trying to find it today.

p.s. i hope Avant Gauche gets back up and running soon. i miss it

Metamorphose have done a HUGE update, I want alot ^^


Just one tease..

So everyone go and look at all the cute stuff

Hi ^^ Would anyone happen to have the official pictures of this BTSSB dress?

Thank you alicelost13 for letting me use the picture from her sales post ^^

Sometimes I don't really like that some lolita has leaked into the mainstream. Other times, like today, I am very glad.

I made a GREAT find today! If you're in the market for a parasol but you don't have a lot of money to spend (and you don't really care about the quality of the parasol...) then head over to Michael's craft store!

I've found that the wedding section of craft stores has turned out to be quite useful. For example, the tops of my socks here are wedding garters that I attached to the socks!

But anyway, as I was browsing around in Michael's today, I found a VERY cute mini parasol for $9.99. Since it's in the wedding section, it's only in white. But if you're in a financial fix and you need a quick accessory for a sweet lolita outfit, this is probably a good idea for you! I can't find any photos of the parasol on the Michael's website, but it's all lace, and it looks most similar to this, but without the garish handle. And it's mini, so when opened, it's about 2 feet in diameter? Kind of like this. Anyway, if there's a Michael's near you, it's worth checking out.

I really wanted to get one, but I'm so broke that I can't even afford a $10 parasol xD how lame is that!

I hope this helped you out!

For those of you trying to put together loli rooms, I found a cute vanity in a Target magazine and found it online. It only comes in white; you can find it here and the matching stool here.

Hope this helps you guys! Good luck with your loli rooms!

My brother was browsing Uncyclopedia, and sent me an article about Gackt, which led me to Malice Mizer, which led me to look for a Lolita article.

I was pleasently surprised.

Enjoy!!

I got my Peace Now happy pack the other day and after a run through the wash (I think Canada Post had them in the rain, they smelt a little uh damp) I wore some today to see Harry Potter.

I was just wondering if anyone had any updates about the National Lolita thing that was being planned. It seemed like there was a lot of planning going on @ the beginning of the idea & then it just seemed to stop. The nationalolita comm & website seem to be dead too.

Is it still being worked on or has the idea been abandoned?

Alright.
So like, I'm a fairly stingy lolita. I have a budget of about 300 dollars every two weeks that has to meet all my needs.. for two weeks. >_>;
I'm a 15 year old girl living at home by the way. Just to clarify, it's solely for my own entertainment purposes, which are pretty minimal, but stretching it out over two weeks gets difficult. xD;
Also forgot to mention..
I'm paying 150 of that to my mother to pay  back a laptop... which is gonna string out till the end of the summer. x_x;
Should have mentioned that. ^_^;
Seeing by the reactions.. I know I'm fortunate... but I work hard for it, and like I said, I'm a bit stingy and am looking for a good deal.

So what I'm asking is, what stores are gonna give me the best selection of clothing (under my budget)? I'm talking quality/price ratio here.

Also. Have size 10 Lolis ever ordered shoes from Ling Lam? <3 They're adorable but I fear they won't fit me.
