/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I feel like I've put on so much weight over the past year and it makes me feel terrible. I can still fit into my favorite unshirred jsk but it doesn't look as good any more, and I bought four colorways of the topping heart otks and they barely stay on my legs. I was really skinny as a teenager so I never kept track of my weight, but now I'm at 10kg (height 152cm). I feel like I'm all lard. I went up from a B cup to a D, and at first I quite liked how my boobs looked but now all I see is boobloaf. I wish I could get out of my house and work this fat off, but plague times and all that.

i just want cgl to like me. i've worked really hard on being less annyoing on social meida, losing weight, improving my makeup and coordinates for approval but nothing i do works.

Reveal your deep dark lolita secrets here and we will absolve you of your sins

What >>10028885 said and as a daily lolita wrinkling isn't a deal breaker if I'm able to get a hug.

I obsessively avoid showing any bare skin between my OTKs and the hems of my dresses to the point where it makes me a bit anxious. My dresses fit me well, they're not too short, and I always wear bloomers and pull my OTKs up as high as they'll go, but I still worry about flashing a bit of skin above my knees and accidentally coming across as suggestive... mostly because I personally find zettai ryouiki attractive.

>it looks dumb 75% of the time, especially if the blouse doesn't "blend" with the JSK to look like it's one piece instead of two
If the blouse and JSK don't look like they belong together then it's probably just bad coordination. Not all blouses work with all JSKs, after all.

Sort of adding onto your confession: I've been into lolita for nearly a decade and I only recently got some good, proper petticoats. I did own and wear petticoats before that, but the ones I've used before were terrible and cheap. Oops.

>tfw all this pyramid head talk got me hot and bothered
Damn it gulls

T-thank you anon

>do a lot of secret shopping my husband doesn’t know about
>I usually sell a bit and get money through comissions so it isn’t as obvious
>waiting for two invoices to show up on my bank account
>realize I accidentally used his credit card twice

I‘m a stupid bitch. Now I need to explain how I’m spending so much money when we want to save.

A thread for questions that so not deserve their own thread and should not clog up other threads.

>yes I'm talking to you, "how do I order from mercari/fril?" anons

Everyone approaches the style in a slightly different way, but do you feel like you're missing something that everyone else makes look good?
Do your coords feel incomplete no matter what you do? Do you always feel like you're the odd one out in meetup photos? Did you come from genuinely having shit normie taste and still having trouble learning what looks good?

Post it all here, break it down. If you feel you've overcome anything like that, help out a salty gull in need.

sorry for the paragraphs ive just been feeling really detached from my comm and im thinking about leaving. ive been in it a few years and im not really friends with any of the comm members.(theyre not a bad comm though theyre good company) its also over an hours drive away from where i am and i just dont think its worth it anymore
the city i actually live in also has a comm but theyre super small and inactive(it seems like theres about 4 active members and one of the active members is a drama llama who got kicked out of the farther away active comm) im not really active in online comms either since im a pretty mediocre lolita and my coords are rarely worth sharing....i really love the feeling of community going to meetups and stuff like that but i really just dont feel like i belong here.... does anyone have any lonelita tips?

I keep buying super sweet prints and hate that I have shit taste but I just love fluffy pink sweet. Someone help

>highly considering spending almost $100 on a set of limited charms I really want
>help me jesus

>tfw petticoat shopping with limited time is super stressful
especially since it's for a dress i don't have yet. i'm afraid the material might be heavy so that it'll bring down the poof on an already low-poof petti. send help

late response, but definitely! the KMC bag is surprisingly huge and a pair of flats will fit nicely. decided on the pink JSK since it's secondhand burando and copped pretty cheap so i'll be able to have fun and not worry too much. i'm definitely young/slim so wearing OTT sweet is probably not a good idea. thanks for working through this with me anon!

when i was younger and unaware of his motives i entered the bodyline modelling (waifu) contest. oh, how times have changed

>>9198854
are they the kinds of girls who are so nice that they don't want to cause trouble by resolving the conflict/kicking her out? sucks, either way i'd wait till it gets especially bad and then bring it up

>ordered this dress during the bodyline sale
I-it won't look that bad...right?
