Guy at my school keeps calling me a "loli" and I don't know how to tell him to stop

It's not just him not knowing that loli isn't the short form for lolita, he's purposefully saying it

Every time he sees me he's like "look it's a fucking loli"

It's extremely annoying, I wouldn't mind if it was a one time thing but we go to school together and I see him every day

>>10287370
You fucked up because you didnt aggressively tell him to not call you that the first time. Best bet is to start calling him pedo.

>>10287370
He is bullying you. Report him desu. He should be treated like a misbehaving toddler.

>>10287363
What happened to MC Melody Doll?

>>10287416
I think she got fat.

>>10287370
I've had to correct normies friends who call me a loli too and literally only one of them has fucking stopped.

>>10287423
if they act like animals, treat them like it. Spray them with a spray bottle full of water.

Why don’t sellers on Lacemarket ever put the size of the shoes they’re selling? Do they just hope someone buys them without noticing?

>>10287370
Just tell him to stop?
>Hey, don't call me that.

>>10286720
glad someone enjoyed it

>>10287370
People are just dicks. Some dude called me "anime" back when I was in high school, it wasn't too big back then and I had pictures on my binder and would draw during lunch and whatnot.

Ignore him if he doesn't listen when you tell him to stop. It's just one annoying dude and people like this never learn.

Anyone have this bag? How is the quality?

>>10287370
Learn to ignore people. You will never survive in life if things like this rile you so much.

>>10287586
Meta bags are really good compared to flaky bags from AP.

>>10287586
I have a very similar meta bag and after 10 years the leather on the handle has cracked a whole bunch but zero peeling. The bag itself is fine no peeling, corners look good (albeit with a few dents). But mine is more of a shiny leather

Anybody knows the drama behind? https://egl.circlly.com/users/OLDVICTIM

>>10288007
There’s a scammer who keeps getting banned and making new accounts to circumvent it, and buys the listings of anyone who calls them out to sabotage their feedback.

>>10287677
>>10287995

Good to know, thank you both.

>>10287363
There's no way any lolita on this board could spend ¥100000... right...

>>10288018
I have spent 900€ (more than ¥100000) at AP Paris two times.

>>10288018
That's very naive of you to think that.

>>10288018
Poorfag spotted

>>10288018
Hahaha are you serious? I just got yelled at by my boyfriend for getting a package from Japan with a ¥120000 value on the customs form.

>>10288018
That's only 3-4 brand new dresses

>>10288018
Some of us have grownup jobs

On a similar note, I've been meaning to ask, which lolita has the biggest wardrobe that you know of? It doesn't have to be someone you know personally.

>>10288069
Me

>>10288069

Me.

Jk but off the top of my head it's josinemaiike of the lolitas I know. Think at last wardrobe count she was at 200+.

>>10288069
Who's that chubby asian girl who hoards hundreds of pieces and can't fit into any of them anymore?

>>10288083
tallulah bee

>>10288046
Dump his ass
>>10288083
TB?

>>10288046

If you guys are tight on money he might have a point, especially if you're using money saved for an emergency or going into debt.

If you could afford it without going into debt or dipping into savings he needs to chill.

>>10288069
Some Chinese lolita probably

>>10288088
Nah, we have the money, I made some dumb mistakes when I was 18 and got into a lot of credit card debt which is now clear, but it means I’m really careful with spending now. I only spend what we can afford.

So yeah, he needs to chill lmao

>>10288018
We're not all teenagers. I have a job and That only equates to about a months rent. Which is absolutely doable for people who don't live paycheck to paycheck.

>>10287363
I think it’s one of those things that just never died a decade ago If it bothered you the first time you should have spoken up :( It isn't like he is someone important in your life. Just say you don’t like it and if he persists report him.

>>10288018
Do you mean all at once or like...ever? Because that only equates to about a handful of dresses and most of us have a whole closet full.

Tried out registered SAL for the first time because it was basically free with a coupon.
Shipped on 10/21 and just finally made it to my country. Never again. the non-updating tracking info had me on edge the past week. 14 days my ass.

>>10288120
That’s not even that bad, I’ve had SAL take over a month. I don’t use it anymore.

>>10288120
it's literally been 3 weeks newfag

>>10288120
That's nothing, it takes 8 weeks to get to me.

I expect waiting this long when using SAL. And yeah the tracking numbers mean squat. The last 3 orders that I have shipped via SAL never updated to show it came into the states.

Just had to wait for the package to actually arrive and know it would take about 8 weeks.

>>10288069
recklessrave on ig. Fucking bottomless

>>10288167
I'm the OP of that question and she was the first person I had on mind as well. It's not just that she has the most main pieces I've seen, but so much of everything else as well - blouses, cardigans, boleros, socks, shoes and accessories - that even when she finally rewears a main piece, she makes a completely different coord with it. And then there's the fact she updates her IG with a new coord every day!

>>10288080
I wasn't familiar with this person before, so thanks for introducing her to me, anon.

>>10288167
She must have so much because she only buys main pieces. The accessorizing here is non existent. Lots of stuff but nothing spectacular

>>10288229
I think she actually doesn't have that many main pieces if we're talking the biggest wardrobes. I know she has a ton of socks from her wardrobe video

>>10288167
so many items, but her coords are painfully boring imo

>>10288009

The girl who currently is being harassed by this account (idiotinkorean) prices their items way too high (not sure if I'd call it scalping but super overpriced) but they are definitely not a scammer so it's sad that she now has shitty feedback scores because of an angry scammer.

>>10288244
Isn’t idiotinkorean the girl who was trying to sell three pairs of socks for $160 or something?

>>10288229
>>10288239
Which lolitas' wardrobes/coords do you like the best then?

>>10288256
nayrt but I love brizblossom’s coords

>>10288256
Polaris woods is “curvy” but she’s classic goals for me, personally. Not a fan of all the corsets she wears under her stuff but I love that she uses vintage pieces and makes body line look fantastic. She’s not very active though

>>10288246

Yeah she is always selling stuff for ridiculous prices. Even her offbrand and indie stuff is priced like brand. Her feedback besides that scammer trying to get back at her was all good though.

Guess her buyers didn't realize or care that they were overpaying for stuff. Still kinda seems sad considering scalping and scamming are different (at least if you just buy an overpriced dress you actually get the dress vs being scammed and getting nothing)

If we are talking wadrobe using ig is a bad example since you can easily buy and sell and look like you have a ton with photos. At a quick glance recklessrave looks like she has 50? josinemaiik def has over 100, but im not sure if its 200+ You can tell though that she has way more stuff but its hard to judge what someone actually owns right now from ig.

>>10288259
oof

>>10288256
nayrt
I don't follow many people on insta, but ia that her coords are really boring. They're good and she has a big variety of dresses, but the way they're coorded is very basic. It's like the lolita version of jeans+t-shirt every day.

dorithsellam has a very distinctive, vampy look even in sweet. imo she's a good example of wearing the clothes and having a personal look, rather than getting lost in the frills

fannyrosie is the same as above. she wears a big variety of classic stuff but there's little touches that define her personal style.

mahoudolly wears fairy kei, but she's got a huge variety of coord styles and she's not afraid to experiment with stuff outside the norm for the fashion like skinny jeans.

ruby_c.plus wears a lot of styles of jfash, all totally OTT, and her accessories are always fantastic. She experiments a lot with legwear and stuff.

>>10288268
What’s the deal with briz? I’m not a newfag but I can admit I’m missing some drama, I don’t get the hate

>>10288268

it's hard to tell but she did do a wardrobe from a year ago. this year she didn't do one because she said she had way too much. i counted 177 in the last one, and she definitely accumulated more since then.

https://egl.livejournal.com/20145818.html

>>10288271

the biggest thing i remember is that she bought likes for a metamorphose coordinate contest.

>>10288268
>recklessrave looks like she has 50
You can easily go through her feed and see she has quite a few pieces. She separates her wardrobe between s/s and f/w. She has at the very least 60+ for each season.

>>10288322

I mean, 60+ is a good number, but it really isn't 'the most' compared to some of the others we've mentioned. That being said, it's not really a dress quantity olympics here, and the one thing I like about RR is that she clearly wears it daily and loves it. I admire that about her.

>>10288167
so many main pieces but only one pair of ugly glasses frames.
>Inb4 ableism whining
she has enough main pieces that she could definitely afford to buy a slightly more flattering pair even if they were the 600 dollar lenses everyone seems to require when u critique their glasses.

Angelic Pretty isn't making interesting designs anymore?
Is there any worthwhile releases in the last 3-5 years?

>>10288346
Well, what do you like?

>>10288353
I like turtles

>>10288346
I liked Fancy Candy and Strawberry Doll, although I’d like the latter better if it didn’t look so bleak on poly.

>>10288344
Sounds like a you problem.
Her glasses are cute and they match her aesthetic ok

>>10288358
Fancy candy was my favorite too!!

>>10288346

I like these releases in the most recent years

Halloween Treats in Lavender
Creamy Cherry OP in White
Cream Cookie Parade Speical JSK

>>10288346

I like these releases in the most recent years

Halloween Treats OP in Lavender
Creamy Cherry OP in White
Cream Cookie Parade Speical JSK

>>10288364
Dumb me deleted the post. It’s actually looks cuter from closeups, stock photos don’t make the justice.

>>10288369
Totally agree on Halloween Treats point.

>>10288346
I really liked Magical Horoscope and Dream Bear.

>>10288386
I liked MH in the stock photos but I didn’t in person. I don’t like prints on chiffon like that, it takes all the vibrancy out of the print

>>10288346
Fruity Lemon was super cute but it sold out fast
Recently they re-released Nostalgic Garden and I was happy about that; it has the nicest pocket detail.

>>10288346
I know only Chinese lolitas liked “Holy Dolphin” (Sleeping Deep Sea Stars) but actually I really liked it. I liked Unbirthday too but the cuts were underwhelming.

>>10288386
The print on Dream Bear was okay but the actual material was taobao quality in person based on owner photos on LM

>>10288422
Ya, AP seems to be enamored with this woolly viella shit lately and it’s gettin old

>>10288346
I really liked
Sweet Lacy Basket
Jewelry Snow
Halloween Treats
Ghost Night Bride
My favorite Room
And maybe some others I can’t remember right away. I think they’re still doing great.

>>10288427
I like all these too

>>10288417
I loved loved the fabric of Unbirthday but the cut was too *junior* to me and I sold it.

It’s not the prints I don’t like, there have been plenty of cute prints, it the drapey style they go for now. Everything’s flowy and soft. They make so few nice stiff dresses with any structure to them. I loved fancy candy. The cuts could have had more detail but the print, fabric, and structure reminded me of milky planet

>>10288359
theyre not, and they dont. nayrt and her glasses are the main reason i dont follow her

>>10288440
Dreamy Synphony seems popular and it’s a non-print. I think people like the structure of the cotton.

>>10288069
Hard to say, the ones who seem to have massive wardrobes from the hauls they post, barely post themselves wearing it. It's a mistery.

>>10288476
I have a pretty big wardrobe, and used to be well known. I do t post much anymore just to avoid the hate/hassle. sometimes it felt energy sucking. But that’s just me. I been in the fashion for a long time, so I don’t know if it’s just me changing or what. I wish I had the passion to be as involved as I once was, but then again maybe not...

Has anyone ever entered one of Baby’s in-store Lotteries? I tried to enter the Stray Sheep one for just the headdress, but there was no deposit and now I wonder if I did something wrong. (As the page on their website about reservations talks about deposits.) But the staff told me that they would call me to tell me whether or not I made it and that once it is released I pay for the item.

>>10288505
I always heard through my SS that there’s a deposit, but maybe different locations have different policies.

>>10288069
I have owned a pretty large wardrobe, but it's so much of a nicer feeling (for me anyway) to get rid of the things you barely wear. Now my wardrobe would probably be considered small/average. People probably thought I was a reseller when I was selling everything off though, I did it all at once.

>>10288505
Yeah they'll just send you an email and invoice if you get it.

>>10288069
I can think of two who have insanely massive wardrobes (300+) and it disturbs me a bit to be honest. It’s indistinguishable from hoarding to me when you’re having a difficult time finding space to keep pieces because you’ve outgrown literal rooms and have to keep clothes in boxes around the house and obviously at least 80% of things literally never get worn. It’s just a toxic buying/collecting habit

>>10288515
Yeah, deposits are also mentioned on their page on reservations. It says like “Amount of deposit differs per item so please ask the staff about it.” That is why I tried asking, but all I understood was that there wasn’t and that it was a lottery item.

>>10288523
I am talking about an in-store lottery, not an online one. They only have my phone number. But online doesn’t do deposits as well?

>>10288446
Ayrt, yeah true. Even as I was posting my last reply I was thinking of that and bunny college, both cotton or at least cotton-like fabric and more structured cuts/styles and both did very well. I just wish they made more like that. I bought antique crown thinking it would be like that and a plastic tablecloth showed up when I got it.

Why are people hesitant to leave negative or at least neutral feedback on LM if the transaction was shitty?
Giving positive feedback when you write about an unresponsive seller just because the item arrived one day is absurd. Sames goes for finding minor flaws that weren't listed.
If people where honest it would saved me and probably others a lot of trouble. That and LM counting neutral feedback as neutral one day and not something else.

>>10288624

Once I left detailed and understanding neutral not even negative feedback when an item arrived damaged and the seller left me really ranty retaliatory negative feedback complaining that I was honest.

Plus look at the scammer with a fake account buying items of a user that called them out and leaving multiple negative feedbacks. So many reasons to be afraid to piss someone off.

>>10288624
I had to leave positive feedback because the buyer said she would leave feedback after I left mine first. So she knew she could make it hard for me to sell again when I had half as much feedback as her, when she was the shitty buyer who forgot to pay me for a payment plan. It worked out in the end but I wish she hadn't held that over me so I could have left the bad feedback.
Inb4 why didn't you tell the kids
They're not great at resolving to disputes. I've seen them make some awful decisions before.

How does a lolita girl get a lolita gf?
is there any way to increase my chances?

>>10288632
oh, I never leave a buyer feedback until they’ve left me feedback because you never know when they’re going to try and pull something. I’ll leave sellers feedback as soon as the item gets to me, but I’ve never had to leave neutral/negative feedback so far.

>>10288624
I have two accounts, 1 for buying and the other for selling.

I'm bloody honest with feedback on the account I buy with.

>>10288617
ayrt, oh god agreed. The stock pictures of antique crown made it look like this beautiful box pleated cotton at least to my dumb ass and when I got it I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Plastic tablecloth is the perfect way to describe it

>>10288346
I liked Unbirthday, Halloween Treats, Be my Valentine, Fruit Lemon and that one with bunnies with wings (i think it was heart lacy garden or something like that)

>>10288624
Whenever a buyer doesn't leave feedback I get worried I missed some damages or fucked something up. I'd rather they tell me cause I'm open to giving partial refunds

>>10288633
Go to meets, you dummy

>>10288638
I forgot about Be My Valentine! That one was so cute but I somehow managed to miss both releases.

WTF is with all the ebay-tier “Starting bid at $1” listings on Lacemarket all of the sudden? I guess they seem to be selling but it bothers me, Lm isn’t really supposed to be this kind of platform.

>>10288657
I like them. There's no option to search for auctions only and I'd love if LM would be more like yahoo auctions.

>>10288662
same, i wish you could search for sold/unsold completed listings too

>>10288664
You can in the advanced search bar

>>10288664
you literally can though

>>10288666
>>10288667
uhh i only see the option to search for
>only active
>only completed
>both active and completed

nothing to distinguish sold/unsold completed listings. unless i'm blind

>>10288669
Select the completed option.

>>10288677
that shows both sold and unsold listings

>>10288669
>>10288677
why would you spoonfeed this absolute retard?

>>10288687
there's no way to separate the sold completed listings and unsold completed listings but ok

>>10288632
If they threat you with leaving negative feedback if you did nothing wrong, include this in your feedback.

>>10288624
I don't leave non-positive feedback for minor things if I think the seller may have other stuff I'd want to buy. Really wish that neutral was separate, because I'd use that for issues like having to wash BO out and snapped hooks. Easy fixes, but people should wash their shit and disclose damages!

>>10288628
>>10288632
Could the mods do nothing about that? I assume they also have access to everyone's DMs on LM.

Also I thought buyers are supposed to leave feedback first. I never do it first when I'm the seller, even though that means I have years-old sales awaiting feedback.

>>10288636
How does that even work wrt verifying your PayPal?

>>10288755
When I said 'i didn't tell the kids' I meant the mods. Cursed phoneposter.
I've seen friends deal with the mods before and they've made some shit decisions. I figured if I got bad feedback they would probably do nothing since they seem biased towards American buyers, which she was. No disrespect to American buyers, 99% of them I've sold to have been absolutely fine, but they do seem to be unsympathetic to euros.

>>10288632
I have reached out to LM about negative feedback that was left for me.

I sent screenshots of all our communication and mods changed it to positive feedback.

And wtf usually when I buy, I always leave feedback before a seller does.

>>10288755
>I thought buyers are supposed to leave feedback first
I don't think there's a real guideline for the order of operations there. I've had sellers leave feedback for me before the item made it to me.

>>10288755
Nayrt, You can have two LM accounts if you have two PayPal accounts. You can have two PayPal accounts as long as you have two bank accounts or cards. I have two PayPal accounts and one has my main checking account connected and the other has the debit card for that same checking account and another throw away checking account from a local bank I don’t use.

If I'm the seller, I never leave feedback until the buyer confirms receipt of the item.
Have never myself been scammed but the LJ horror stories about chargebacks/claiming they never received the item and stuff made me adopt a particular system pretty early on.

>>10288759
What do you mean by unsympathetic? I’ll buy things listed in euros but the dollar is weaker than the euro so it’s not exactly fun. I realize this isn’t the seller’s fault but it’s not mine either.

>>10288755
Two lacemarket different accounts, two different emails.
You can have more than 1 email for your PayPal account.

>>10288755
Two different LM accounts, two different verification emails.
You can have more than 1 email for the same PayPal account

(primary email, secondary )

>>10288167
Her coords aren't great though.
Makes me think that maybe I should just take more photos. If she can get that many followers with shitty coords and a big wardrobe I probably could as well

>>10288826
Why do you care about having so many followers in the first place?

>>10288763
Be careful, according to paypal's ToS you are only allowed to own one normal PP and one business PP under your name. If they notice, they will limit your accounts with all funds on it and will only lift it after you decide which one of the accs you want to delete.

>>10288443
Lmao y>>10288446
ou sound like an absolute moron. I'm sure she doesn't need you as a follower.

>>10288443
Yes.
They are.
And like I said, its obviously a you problem if you actually let it affect you so much. lmao I'm sure she doesn't miss your follow.

>>10288826

Damn, that like to coord ratio is even worse than mine though, and I thought I was doing bad.

>>10288838

>Like to follower ratio

I need to sleep

>>10288641
I’ve only not gotten feedback from a buyer one time and I was worried too but then I realized she had like four negative feedbacks from other sellers. She never left me feedback but she also never tried to get her money back so I guess I don’t really care, I guess I got lucky and she was a shitty buyer.

>>10288833
Ayrt, that’s why one is a business account. I’m not the anon who said it before, but I also have one account I buy with and one account I sell with, the business one is the one I sell with (not just lace market and not just lolita. I’m big on always shopping secondhand and never throwing anything away)

>>10288838
Damn! You’re right. I have 2% of the followers and I get the same number of likes As her. But then again mine are all friends

>>10288826
Honestly, I kind of like how simplistic her coords are.

They aren't anything great, but she is showing how wearable the fashion can be.

>>10288864
Me too! I'm tired of lolitas always competing to have the most ~*~unique~*~ and often ott coord and its like...I just wanna wear my cute clothes to the fucking library or general everyday shit. Is it even a street fashion anymore? I'm not trying to be the most fashionable or get asspats online I just wanna wear my cute boring shit.

>>10288864
Same here. I actually don't think her coords are boring or cookie cutter at all, she does lots of mixing and matching with different colour combos, blouses, legwear etc. I also like seeing someone just wear their glasses with the fashion instead of needing to being all perfectly matching. It shows that she is an actual human being wearing street fashion instead of a dress up doll.

Also wearable, everyday coords =/= boring. Idk why gulls seem to think it's impossible to make interesting and experimental coords that are still wearable. The two aren't mutually exclusive, and at a certain point all OTT looks the same, that can be boring too. Being able to coordinate your pieces in so many different ways isn't boring at all.

>>10288864
>>10288892
I semi-agree with you guys but I also think she could stand to work on her styling a little bit. Her preference for super thick and heavy bangs coupled with her glasses and sparse makeup makes her face look a little plain imo, and sort of gives all of her coords the same feel even though the clothes are totally different each time.

>>10288902
I think a lot of her coords are cute, but she looks way better using her natural hair and not using the ugly wigs she uses.

>>10288902
I like that she tends to keep it simple but
I agree she could work on her styling a bit more. At the same time she only started wearing lolita in 2016 and for being so new she's alright even it's mostly because shes loaded and buys all brand.

In my third year as a lolita I was still building my wardrobe, polishing my style off, and still wearing bodyline abd taobao pieces. So idk I cut her some slack for being a new.

>>10288833
>>10288852

Oh. So that's why they started sending me business statements ("this month's sale: $0. This month's purchases: $300" like lol does this look like a business account and not a shopaholic drowning their misery)

>>10288981
she wears a fuckton of bodyline, too

jewelry snow 2.0?

as inferior from jewelry snow as it might be, it’s a big improvement from last year’s flop

>>10289076
Why no navy?

>>10289076
I thought this looked really cute in person, the motives are adorable and the softer colors make it less busy

>>10289076
I’m disappointed in seeing the final design but I still asked my SS to get it for me, I’m a sucker for flocked snow prints I guess

>>10289098
It looked really good in person, especially the blue JSK that RinRin was wearing. Which one are you getting, anon?
Also I wish they'd release matching legwear with this but oh well, finding snow motif tights isn't that hard I guess.

>>10289076
(((print))) done right

>>10289133
Fuck off /pol/tard

How fucking slow can zenmarket be? It took them 2 days and now everything I wanted is sold out. They only bought a necklace I just threw in my basket because it wouldn't add to shipping, and now I can't cancel that.

>>10289180
zenmarket?

>>10289076
I love this so much, anyone know what the material is?

>>10289180
sorry to hear that anon. I like to use actually individuals for my SS for this exact reason, like tenshi and kairai. I used japonica twice but found them to be pretty slow too.

>>10289191
Flocking on chiffon, like holy lantern

>>10289180
They used to be pretty fast but you're better off using muuh or tenshi. Muuh especially seems to be extremely fast with snapping up stuff.

>>10289213
I used to use Muuh but she suddenly turned into a bitch and isn't communicative anymore about changes in my order.

>>10289215
what do you mean? shes always great for me

>>10289076
*yawn*

>>10289250
Nobody cares what you think.

>>10289076
fugly

>>10289076
honestly this looks great and I'm either a sweet ott lolita or gothic. I've been really sad with the status of AP lately but I get why they're selling crap- they gotta keep afloat with those chinese buyers.

>>10289301
You need to go see a therapist or something. This kind of behavior is alarming.

Does anyone know an SS that can bid on listings that forbid or cancel SS bids?

>>10289341
She's probably some newfag who thinks everyone on cgl is rude for no reason.

>>10289135
kek, it's too late for that

>>10289366
probably muuh or tenshi or mintkismet? Or find some smaller personal SS, pretty sure some have posted in Rufflechat

>>10289366
Why do sellers do that?

>>10288018
We oldfags can still read here you know. 4chan isn't limited to the unemployed.

>>10289416
you can be an oldfag and you can also be a worthless unemployed neet what is your point

>>10289414
I think it's because they don't want their items going outside the domestic/Japanese market. When things get sold to foreigners, they're not going to be put back on the Japanese market, thus dwindling the supply of secondhand brand to Japanese lolitas.

>>10288018
You underestimate the amount of spoiled middle/upper class college girls here

>>10289437
I don't know any college girl lolitas who make purchases that large at a time. It's usually girls in their mid-late 20s with full-time jobs.

my girlfriend nearly purchased a dress off Milanoo. i'm glad she's getting into a hobby i have but damn, i'm glad i was there or she could've been disappointed as fuck.
apparently, newbies still fall for scams.

>>10288981
Wtf, didn't she wear lolita in the LJ days or am I just going senile?

>>10288981

idk i felt i was at least experimenting with styling in year 3 instead of just wearing wigs or my hair down.

people learn at different rates but with how much she's wearing lolita there's almost no excuse at year 3.

>>10289534
Speaking as someone who also wears lolita... some of you take this fashion waaay too seriously.

>>10289536

no? i just can't really discern her outfits apart and expressing why i believe so.

>>10289536
this. it's a hobby, not a job

>>10289557

yeah but do you never want to improve the things you love?

>>10289568
If it ain't broke don't fix it

>>10289643
Sorry your coords suck

>>10289076
who are even designing these dresses these days at AP for the last few years?

>>10288981
>year 3
Jesua christ, it's clothes not high school

>>10289568

Meh, it's all relative

>>10288018
pretty sure there's people who spend that much on lolita every month, anon.

>>10289180
It is annoying that they're so slow, but Zenplus is by far the cheapest SS I know of, and also very easy to use. It has helped me to discover new brands.

>>10289568
Some people aren't ambitious like that, deal with it

>>10288826
That kind of thinking is a scourge upon this fashion desu

I don't even particular like her, but she's actually wearing the clothes as clothes, not things to be worn once a year and then sit in one's closet.

>>10289341
>>10289370
Nah just tired of the
>lel AP is ugly and boring now
meme.

>>10289076
The op looks nice, but the print itself isn't too interesting.

>>10289714
People are allowed to have opinions different than your own.

>>10289050
I have been in fashion for almost 10 years and I still wear Bodyline often. It's not something to be ashamed of imho. They used to have so many cute stuff and it honestly makes it easier to wear the fashion everyday.

>>10288018
>¥100000
bringing ¥217426 (about $2000USD) to Japan right now to spend on just lolita!
dream trip has finally happened. Ive been saving for this trip all year.

>>10289738
I wished I brought more money last time I went to Japan;; I can almost guarantee that 2k will leave you with the same thoughts lol.

>>10289743

Depends on if their desires for purchases are more for quantity or if they just have very specific items in mind and plan to shop secondhand, etc.

>>10289673
You must be incredibly new to think you have the same coording skills as those who have been doing it longer lol

>>10289673 #
You must be incredibly new to think you have the same coording skills as those who have been doing it longer and most likely have a bigger closet lol

>>10289714
I don't think you know what a meme is?
Someone not liking a dress is not a meme. It's just different tastes.

>>10289738
goals, hope you find the perfect stuff to throw your budget on, live your dreams!

>>10289738
That’s such a specific number lmao

>>10289714
I see you in so many threads calling this a meme. People having an opinion that pisses you off is not a meme.

I'm seaching for a good old Hime hair tutorial.
Are there still Hime wigs somewhere out there?
Maybe someone knows something *prays*

>>10289884
might help to search through gyaru tutorials on YT or elsewhere.

>>10289891
how could I miss those:O Thank you anon

>>10289880
I think it's moreso they're bringing 2k USD and that's what it converts to in yen, hence the specificity

>>10289884
I use prisila bangs and half wigs. I haven't found anything else that's comparable but would be interested if anyone else has suggestions.

>>10287370
Report him to school authorities for sexual harassment by only showing them the fetishized Google results for the meaning of loli. Tell them you feel threatened.

I got so many good deals on lacemarket lately. Is it the time of year?

>>10289884
As >>10289948 says, wig parts are what most Hime Gyaru used as well. The ones who do it with their natural hair often still use extensions to get enough volume.
There are some handy devices you can use to make bumbs in your real hair, but they are mostly for tiny bumbs. They follow the same principles as the sacks people use for Rococo Hairstyles. I have two kind of them, a sticky moon shape one that comes in three sizes which you can tower up and put under your hair, as well as a big moonshaped piece that is covered in synthetic hair, that I can wrap into my hair and put it below my hair. It is hard to explain and I don’t know the names pf them. But for proper Hime Gyaru hairstyles I always use wigparts. I have gotten mine from Taobao as Prisilla didn’t have my hair color and well it is cheaper, and they are really nice!

>>10289076
No idea why anons don't like it. I find it adorable and the cut is perfect. I'm tempted to buy two colorways.

Moitie has some new stuff announced, a skirt and two knitted shirts.

>>10290199
Which cut and colorways do you want to buy, anon?

>>10290226
That bodice just looks so sad and baggy. It is not a good look. So close yet so far.

>>10289884
Cyperous if they’re still around has big wigs so you don’t need as many pieces

>>10289738
Nice! I brought a bit more when I went and it’s so nice to be able to buy whatever you fancy. Have a great time.

>>10290226
Looks like the skirt is the same as this 2012 release.

>>10290226
Looks like the skirt is a remake of this 2012 release

>>10290226

>>10290274
Yo is there some sort of detail on the sleeve? Looks cool

>>10290194

There's been a lot at reasonable prices which is nice

Serious question.
I'm a sweet lolita (not only but mainly cute pastel shit) who is also a dyke and i genuinely despair finding another girl someday because of how "girly and cutesy" i look and how it probably turns any girl off. I don't even have a super high pitched voice or some shit but just that.
Did any of you encounter this problem while dating? Goth girls and gothic lolitas are always seen as cool and hot but sweet lolitas or girls into pastel styles are a whole other can of worms and it's paining me gulls.
>mfw

>>10290297
may i add, probably doesn't fucking help i'm on the petite side

>>10290297
I'm a goth who would date a sweet. However, the assholery on this board has put me off ever dating another lolita... I'll keep hooking up for now and find myself a supportive normie wife when I'm in my 40's.

>>10290246
It's because FR is extremely tiny, short, and flat. It'll look better on someone normal-sized.

>>10290301
Jfc hold your salt for your lentils anon

>>10290300
Honestly anon, even I find some of the lolitas (if they even are,and not larpers,most are) on this board bitchy. It's reaaally not a good indicator of the community as a whole but i get your point.

>>10290301

It wouldn't. It literally looks like something I'd find at the thrift store.

Someone is going to make it look good but not before a lot of shop and filter goes on it I bet.

>>10290305
If any actual lolitas want to help me out with a new subreddit that splits the difference between the...whatever of 4chan and the asspats of FB, drop me a message at r/eglcommunity. Photo verification will be required.

I just wanna hang out and talk about pretty dresses without all the derailments.

>>10290226
This looks like a skirt Sheglit has executed better.

>>10290236
I bought the blue. I'm thinking about the sax but I already have jewelry snow in sax so I feel like I shouldn't do it.

>>10290325
I don't have a reddit account but i'll make one for it! I'd gladly join such a subreddit

>>10290226
god fanny is so beautiful. that sweater is SO cute.

>>10290297
I was sweet before goth for 5 years and it was never hard for me to meet a girl, but you have to put yourself out there and be ready for rejection a lot. same as all dating. (also dm me ill be your goth gf)

>>10289050
As a daily lolita, wearing bodyline/offbrand a lot is fine. Some days you don't wanna risk messing up your clothes. it's just filler.

>>10290274
I love this

>>10290340
maybe that's why. I got heartbroken this year and i'm introverted,spend all my time studying,drawing,playing DnD or wearing lolita and i never go out besides meetups and walking to my college campus

So Lor's acting like she created the term 'Living Lolita' now

>>10290379
caps?

>>10290343
How badly do you mess up your clothes?

>>10290300
You should spend less time on the internet and get therapy to help you understand what's real

>>10290397
Are you an incel?

>>10290406
Incels don't believe in therapy, anon.

>>10290396
Doing errands, making food, anything that has to do with living?

>>10290410
They also don't believe in queercels but I swear I bumped in to a self proclaimed "lezcel" a few days ago on ig. They're not really consistent.

>>10290406

arguably op is the incel since she assumes a lot about people from some internet examples, just as incels assume all women are sluts for chads from a few select cases amplified on the internet instead of you know, actually talking to women

>>10290411
And it destroys your clothes? Or do you think lolita clothes are too delicate for the washing machine?

How rare is a good condition Whimsical Vanilla Chan (non tiered) JSK and/or Milky Chan OP?
(which means no pit stains or destroyed by fatties)

>>10290269
I'm starting to wonder how Moitie chooses what items to remake

>>10290425
A common problem I've seen with Vanilla-chans is that the color of the dress fades a lot. I check secondhand regularly and haven't seen either of those two prints in awhile.

>>10290276
I don't think so, I think the sleeves are semi sheer and it's just the background shining through the fabric

>>10290425
good condition Milky chan is pretty common but cut varies

>>10290333
I'm getting the blue one too, but the sax op is quite tempting as well

>>10290419
Nayrt but accidents and spills can happen while cooking and I'd rather not deal with getting oil stains or whatever out of my burando

anyone know what release this is...? the lace is hanging really low

>>10290474
Wow I'm not upset anymore that I missed out on these Cherry Cheezy cardigans. The design is cute but they look like a saggy mess with every lolita coord I've seen so far.

>>10290419
>destroys
nobody said anything about destroying.

>>10290474
2013 replica kek

>>10290477
It’s so hideous when people try to work fairy kei stuff into lolita. Just because it’s pastel doesn’t mean it goes. Lolita is more than just a color palette

>>10290301
Don’t forget CURVY

>>10290411
I get ya anon, other anon is being obtuse. Sometimes I want to rinse my dishes out, pet my cat, take the garbage out, etc, without getting my clothes messed up but I’m not going to change the second I get home just to put it all back on again when I go back out if it’s just little quick daily chores. Some people treat lolita like a costume they only wear once a month and don’t understand. I want to live my life and not being too afraid to do things because of my clothes, but I don’t want to ruin a $400 dress, either. Bodyline is awesome for that.

>>10290484
yeah i thought it was a replica but didn’t want to assume.

>>10290497
agreed.

>>10287363
>be fat ugly 30 year old
>dress up like a doll
>call it "lolita"
>hate actual cute ittle girls

>>10290474
Most embarrassing behavior indeed

>>10290477
Because it isn’t meant to be worn with Lolita, dumb ass

>>10290458
Oh did you get the OP? I got the jsk because AP's sizing doesn't work for me (sleeve length and no back lacing). I'm grateful they added the corset lacing this year because jewelry snow is so big without it. The OP is so cute though, I'm sure you'll look adorable in it! I love the collar design and the lace on it looks beautiful.

>>10290425
Not rare at all. Plus Milky can OP pop up all the damn time. Its the least popular cut.

>>10290524
A lot of cardigans aren't made by lolita brands or specifically FOR lolita but it doesn't stop them looking like shit?

A lot of regular otome, jfash and normie brands make cardigans that dont look like a weird sack on the person. Also I doubt that the designer was unaware of lolitas and specifically didnt want it to go with it.

>>10290533
Nayrt, but it looks bad because it's not made to accommodate the poof of the dress. It's for fairy kei

>>10290546
source is tamie

>>10290548

Why do so many brands fuck up and put things upside down?

At least AP can use their consistently decreasing quality and shift to crappier Chinese manufacturers than they used to have as an excuse.

I expected more from Moitie.

>>10290489
It depends on the item. I think the cardigan can work with a lolita coord if it is a skirt and the cardigan is tucked in.

>>10290474
>>10290484
Does your lace hang low
Does it unravel as you go
Does it say "angelic pretty"?
Is it fake, or is it old?

Would anyone date a passing trans lolita that is?

>>10290571
That's kind of tricky since a lot of skirts are for small waists so you have to be fairly thin to tuck in the cardigan and not be overstuffed.

Would anyone date a passing trans lolita?
Are there even any passing trans lolita out there?

>>10290583
Depends if they're a decent person or not, it's like any person. I've met really rad trans people and really shitty ones

>>10290539
I'm looking forward to the lace comparison

>>10290583
Well there are lots of ftms that pass for women in the community lel.
It’s a hard call to say if someone would date a “passing trans lolita” any more than a non-passing. You will find people with all sorts of preferences. This is not a hobby to get into to find a partner tho.

>>10287370
I had a guy at work do this, but he did it because he thought it was "adorable" which made it 10x creepier. He would always say "good lolis don't" this and that and shit like that. Call that MF out.

>>10290474
Is that a bunch of wadded up grocery bags in a garbage bag petti or are you just really happy to see me

>>10290541
I'm not into aprons but if that was an overdress thing I'd be all over it.

>>10287370
Loli is the short form of lolita tho just cross the ta out and that's what ya get

>>10290566
Because they are just using the same lace for the bottom and the top and the overall design of the lace works better for the top when it’s flipped?

>>10290566
>>10290548

That doesn't make sense. Trying to lower costs gives them even more incentive to make use of it, because using the print to add detail means you can keep the production costs low for a very plain dress, and simply let the printed parts carry the dress. For eg a number of IW and btssb dresses have a different print across the top of the dress but the cut is simple so it still looks good. As for AP, they've has always paid attention to the print details on their bits and pieces, eg pauldrons, the centre of their bows and waist ties (so they can be plain but still look good).

I usually only see upside down when it's an indie, or when using commercial fabric, and that one time Bodyline printed Love Nadia backwards. Kind of not surprised to see it coming from Baroque.

>>10290632
>Piña is the short form of piñata tho just cross the ta out and that's what ya get

Puvithel x Lovely Lot pin sets. Reservation was 2 months ago and they were $48 per set, but the horror they incite is everlasting.

>>10290659

>>10290566
It looks very intentional

>>10290659
Christ, I couldn't design something more hideous if I tried.

>>10290662

The posts shared seemed to imply it was a surprise to them that it was the wrong direction. If it's them being smart and not wasting lace, I get that and it doesn't bother me. But if it is some sort of unintentional oversight I worry Moitie's growing popularity recently will push it the direction of AP with skimping on quality overall in their future releases.

Are Puvithel pins usually so expensive or are these pins just really big? Is the increased charge to help Lor be able to split profits with Puvithel or something maybe so she benefitd from the sale too? Cause $48 for a set before tax and shipping is still $24 per pin for a basic enamel thing.

>>10290583
No, but I wouldn't date a non-trans with mental issues either.

>>10290659
>slag & lovely
Okay.

>>10290674
each set has 3 pins, so that's $16 per pin on average

>>10290676
So you basically wouldn't date any lolita

>>10290679

Ahh okay I was thinking it was just the clown one. It makes sense if it's sets of 3. The images just looked so low effort I thought they were just side doodles to match the clown pin.

>>10290533
The designer caters specifically to fairy Kei and menhera. Of course she is aware of Lolita, but she has never catered to them. It was intentionally made to be an oversized cardigan. It is a legit style that is currently popular in fairy Kei and other pastel j-fashions, not Lolita.
Dumbass.

>>10290539
Omg. Are they going to release this or was it limited to the event??

>>10290704
These were for sale at their AWA booth. Wunderwelt stocked it so maybe they will release on Fleur

>>10290673
I mean the rest of the design doesn't look like it's upside down so

>>10290543
That video doesn't have sound

>>10290717
Because 4chan is gay and doesn't allow webms with sound on cgl

>>10290657
In a lot of countries people do shorten lolita to loli. You can find this online too, people in lolita communities starting their post with "hey loli's" or calling their style goth loli. It was very common in my previous comm, and in Japan too. In China they even shorten it to lo.

>>10290619
It's an apron

>>10290583
Fuck no

When will lolcow come back?

>>10290740
Can't be soon enough.

>>10290583
I'd admit that some trans people pass very well, but I can't get over non-matching genitalia nor do I want to entertain a neo-vagina or a neo-penis. Also, trans people people are horrifically mentally ill, so pass.

Anons, could you check for me if you can access yaplog? I want to know if I'm blocked due to mass downloading or if they region blocked it, because I can access it with a vpn in japan.
Here's an example blog: https://yaplog.jp/a-pierrot-o/

>>10290525
Ah no I got the JSK as well, but if I were to get the OP I'd choose the sax one. We could basically twin at this point and be kawaii together, anon <3

>>10290751
I can’t access it from Western Europe.

>>10290583
I don't want a man with a tiny useless dick and bolt on tits and I don't want a muscular woman with thick facial hair and no tits. No fucking thank you. And I've yet to see a passing TIM irl (and I've seen more trannies than I'd like to) so the chances of said TIM passing and being lolita is zilch.

>>10290751
I’m in the USA and it works fine for me

>>10290751
I can't in Northern Europe.

Has it? I visited it something around 4 months ago and most of the threads were dedicated to shitting on people's appearance and/or life choices. not to mention all the stalking.

>>10290848

I'm a butch dyke who mostly wears classic and goth and I'd absolutely love to have a cutesy girly sweet gf. I think a lot of butch girls are into more cutesy, femme girls so idk anon you might just want to try flirting with your nearest butch and see what happens
