Wardrobe Post 2017
I ended up skipping last year due to a) me not feeling like it and b) I was going to Katsucon the following month and figured I'd get something there (which I did). My wardrobe's gotten a little bigger since 2015, but I still don't have a job that'll let me indulge in some wishlist items of mine so hopefully that'll change...
Got any questions about where I got specific items? Leave a comment!
Want to see my last wardrobe posts? 2014 and 2015
Bodyline's L087 OP
I snapped this up right before my first wardrobe post. This is very easy to coordinate and I'm hoping to get the lavender color someday.
Bodyline's L322 JSK
I like to call this "Petit Sakura"! I bought this as part of a large Bodyline haul with the graduation money I got in 2013.
Infanta's Sleeping Bears Square Neck JSK
My latest dress! I snapped this up at a swap meet with the matching headbow for only $45! Woot!
Soufflesong's Palace Lantern Chiffon JSK
I bought this at the Lolita Collective booth at Katsucon 2016 for $69 (priciest thing I've ever bought at a con btw). This is probably the nicest dress in my closet right now!
Bodyline's Love Jewelry Skirt
My first Lolita garment (other than my petticoat)!
Bodyline's Chocoberry Skirt
I mostly wear this during the summer months.
Putumayo skirt
My first ever piece of brand (and for only $34 shipped!). Like my Bodyline OP, this one is also very easy to co-ord!
l-r: Bodyline, thrifted, Papaya clothing
I actually had to pull out the white blouses from storage (I put them away for the fall and winter).
The Papaya blouse has some daisy embroidery on it!
l-r: Bodyline, thrifted x4
I got the Bodyline blouse at a swap meet during Katsucon 2016 so that I could have something fancy to wear with Palace Lantern. Only thing I could get before the swap meet was shut down though...
l-r: thrifted x3, Papaya clothing, thrifted
clockwise from left: handmade by me, thrifted, Bodyline, handmade by me
The black bolero has some beading on the cuffs and edging!
both thrifted
The pink one was a lucky find at a local consignment shop and the red one is made of 100% cashmere!
thrifted
I sometimes wear this with my Putumayo skirt. But I also wear this outside of Lolita often!
Target
both crocheted by me
I still need to add a button to the lavender one.
clockwise from left: Bodyline x2, Amazon.com x2, Target x2, Payless Shoes x3, Target
The blue OTKs had an unfortunate encounter with a pink sweater (that's no longer in my possession) and has some color bleeding on it forever.
The black socks are lace!
l-r: Hot Topic, Charlotte Russe, Target, Halloween City (believe it or not), Hot Topic x2, Target, unknown
Here's a better shot of my Charlotte Russe tights
Here's wear I keep my Lolita socks and tights! Chest is from A.C. Moore.
l-r: thrifted, Bodyline x2, Kenneth Cole Reaction
I found out that I can actually get away with wearing a girls size 5.5 shoe since my feet are small enough, so that'll make shoe hunting a lot easier for me!
top row: thrifted x2, ILD thing / bottom row: thrifted, handmade by me x2
The pink crochet purse is almost done! I just need to sew the straps and the bottom of the bag. The blue one is being used as my current purse outside of Lolita!
handmade (with help) coin purse, Five Below sanitizer holder
Amazon
Finally scored a Lolita parasol/umbrella!
Navy headbow is Infanta, white head-eating bow is from Sweet Mildred and the poofy pink bows were in an ILD goody bag from last year. Everything else is from Claire's, Target, Wal-Mart and handmade by me.
Claire's, Kittywood Designs (Etsy), Kawaii Goods, Hikari wo Sagasu (Etsy), Bodyline, Disney store, unknown
I keep a lot of my hair clips on this board, which my mom made for me a long time ago.
My larger clips are clipped on the handle of this basket, which has my non-Lolita bracelets.
I have a garden of hair bows from Amazon! My mom sometimes borrows a couple to wear to work.
Red hat is from Wal-Mart (which I wear with my Chocoberry skirt), pink one is thrifted and the berets were all crocheted by me.
I made all these cuffs by myself!
And here's where I keep the cuffs! Box is from Michael's craft store.
Pegasus clip (I call her Hanabi) and cherub pin are from Kawaii Goods, teapot clip is from Kittywood Designs (Etsy), cabbage pin was from winter ILD 2015, cameo brooch was from my blue Bodyline OP and everything else is offbrand.
The clip-on earrings are from the Disney store. Rings are from Wal-Mart, Kittywood Designs (Etsy), A. Gato Designs, Claire's, Wear it Cuter (Etsy), Kohl's, gifts, unknown
A mix of Claire's, Body Central, Magical Tea Time (Etsy), handmade by me, and offbrand
And here's where I keep my bracelets! Basket is from Big Lots.
Jesus I got so many necklaces! x_x Mix of Lia Sophia, A.Gato Designs, Kittywood Designs (Etsy), Pastel Dream Shoes (Etsy), Hot Topic, Charming Charlie's, Magical Tea Time (Etsy), Disney store, offbrand and handmade by me
All crocheted by me
All offbrand
I discovered how great they can be during one bloody hot ILD last year with the Hampton Roads comm.
On the Way
Thank you Glitzy Wonderland!
I also have a sax blue moon clip from Kittywood Designs that should be posted soon. One of my Lolita friends also made me a mint green skirt with pearls sewn on, along with a matching headbow, neckbow and seashell necklace and ring!
Thanks for looking through my wardrobe for this year! I'll leave you with a picture of my cat Jake, who jumped up onto my bed while I was getting ready to photograph my blouses.
