If you do, will you please post a photo or a link to a photo of yourself wearing it? I want to see what it looks like on a person before I decide whether or not to buy it. Cheers.

I'm getting my hair braided, and I was wondering what I can do to make it look "loliable".  And when I say braids I mean Individuals/French Braids. I know the Bibles do not have any tips (they usually have style for hair with 3-5 braids with the rest down or the typical Little house on the Prairie pigtails), so I thought I'd check here.

P.S. I've also checked lalolitas  because I remember seeing the same questoin being asked there, but I can't find it! Does anyone have the link?

Thank you, dearies! ^_^

A while ago, boykitten asked for artists to contribute to a gallery in the Lolita in Wonderland exhibition, and I was super stoked to be able to participate!

I've been aching after bonnets for a few months now. The Triple Fortune kind of bonnet, not the floppy brimmed ones. So after a while of just dreaming about them, I decided to try my hand at making them. These are made the old fashioned way, with buckram and wire and a whole lot of hand sewing.

Because of yesterday’s discussion about interest in a Lolita community for lolitas with disabilities, chronic illness, pain, psychiatric conditions, etc. ( link: http://community.livejournal.com/egl/15145066.html?view=327365482#t327365482 ) I am happy to tell everyone, with the permission of Nessaneko, that the group it now up and running! It can be found here: http://community.livejournal.com/loli_able/

Please come and join us. People who don’t have any type of disability, but would like to join to learn more and be supportive are also welcome.

So, maybe I am el stupido, but I thought this community once had a list of online stores/sellers of peeps who made good quality custom clothing, and/or sold bigger sizes than most japanese brands. Like Retroscope, or the brands sold under Qutieland. But I've been searching for it, to no avail.

If not, maybe we can remedy this. I would like to gather a list of shops that are known for fairly consistent quality. Maybe also mentioning the brands that offer larger sizes (As I remember, BTTSB, Metamorphose, and does Bodyline still carry them? Not that I'm lumping those together. xD) I mentioned this in a post a few days ago, but I'm getting back into Lolita after a couple of years, and I'm not very up to date on various resources. I feel like a n00b.

Thanks loves!
