EDIT: I added another one now! This one is for the Gothic Lolitas (and that includes me)!

Sharing some pics from a recent photoshoot I did, I was the photographer =) I was hoping and hoping and hoping it wouldn't rain as I wanted an outdoors shoot aaaaaaand....it rained, lol. But luckily, the rain stopped in the mid-afternoon and I did plan for a late afternoon start so all was well~ For once, the weather forecast was actually pretty accurate, hurhur.

The theme for the shoot is taken from the fairytale, Snow White and Rose Red, and particularly the part where the two sisters were lost in the woods (although we have no woods locally except patches of tropical, humid, mosquitoes-infested foresty areas, lol!)

so I ordered this petti ( http://www.qutieland.com/product.php?id=328 ) from qutieland...and IT. IS. HUGE, like ridiculously haha.  I want to cut out one of the two layers of organza, do you girls think this would be ok?  I just don't know because this is my first petti and I don't sew or anything XD  also, if it's ok to cut out a layer, should I take out the lower or upper layer? >_<
thank you!!

I was just wondering if there are any other lolitas out there in Auburn who would be interested in a meetup on Lolita Day (June 5th). My friend gerbilpoof (who is new to lolita) and I wanted to do something fun for the holiday, but we want to get other lolitas involved, too! We don't really have any surefire plans yet, so we're looking for some suggestions. I'm new in the area, so I don't really know what all there is to do yet, but she suggested the Art Museum(but shes not sure if its open to civilians that day because of art classes) or an antique store. Apparently the tea house is closed down =(. I would ask this over on alabama_lolitas , but there don't seem to be any other Auburn residents there, and I'm pretty sure I remember a couple people on the main comm mentioning being from Auburn a while back. Hopefully, if we find a decent little group of people, Auburn meetups can become a regular thing!

This has probably been asked time and time again.
but I was wondering if anyone knew where to get wigs like these:

I've checked ebay but havent gotten much results D:
I've checked the memories and the only sites listed there other than amphigory and cosworx was Cyperous and G-market.

Would there be another website to order them from?

Thanks

I noticed that most of you work, so I'm hoping that Saturday will be more convenient. I'm thinking of having the meetup at around 2pm that day. Is this a better day/time?

Does anyone have pictures of Lolita back in the 70s and 80s? I found this post, as well as this blog entry by F*** Yeah Lolita, but I'd like some more pictures. Particularly of the 'Little House on the Prairie' beginnings that I've heard mentioned in Lolita communities. Did Lolita really look like this at one point?

Hi, my name is Lauren. I have just graduated from the Honolulu Community College with a degree in Fashion Technology. For the last class of the course, we had to design and construct our own line of clothing, and I chose to do a classic Lolita style line. I thought I'd share a video and some photos from our annual Spring fashion show "Flight".

I bought my not-lolita prom shoes, but it seems like a shame to buy nice shoes and only wear them once. But I have the BABY embroidery pockets JSK, and they match the embroidery perfectly.

The shoes look like these, without the rhinestone ring. http://www.dsw.com/shoe/caparros+elope+satin+pump+?prodId=dsw12prod1730009 I'm planning to put rose clips on them. Would I be able to get away with them in a hime gyaru-inspired coord without going completely off the rails?
And if so, what do I wear on my legs?
