This could've been lovely, but I think there's too much going on with the tartan and the diamond socks, there's nothing really balancing the gold within the coord either.

*shrug* Some people on DL seem to like it, maybe I'm just nitpicky

>>6547050
I think it's all over the place, not only the socks but that b/w blouse too.

>>6547050
I disagree about the color balance; I think the yellow in the tartan goes well enough with it. I'm not a fan of the pattern mixing, though.

>>6547050
Ia, it has potential, but there's just too many things going on at the same time. Maybe if the tights were simpler and the blouse was plain black instead of black+white lace?

This girl's coords are plain but okay, but what's annoying me is her pose.
Three pictures, all the same skirt-holding pose.
Does she have a petticoat or what?

>>6547055
I think it's actually a cutsew, and I think it looks really out of place. A cream/ivory blouse would be been lovely because it would've tied in lightly with the gold.

i don't know what looks she's aiming for
but she missed

>>6547101
Thought that was hildekitten or whoever from the thumbnail.

>>6547101
i like her from the waist down

>>6547101
Those leggings look stupid even in the context of tumblrcore outfits, but this is just fucking dumb.

> I refuse to participate in full on tacky holiday wear, my compromise towards it is red warm woolen socks, that's as far as I'm going

I love how she's defensive about some socks as if those weren't the least of her worries concerning tacky, themed clothing.

>>6547125
Iron that skirt girly!

>>6547050
I agree with regard to the tartan dress and diamond socks. I'd suggest perhaps plain yellow socks, darker shoes, plain black blouse, and drop the orange hair accessory and the white ones (I'm not sure what the white ones are).

>>6547091
Doesn't look like she's got a petticoat there but I could be wrong. It's hard to tell on the sides but there doesn't seem to be puff at the front.

>>6547101
If she went for casual clothes, I think she hit it. Not great but not bad either.

I've never seen this girl before (but I've been out of the loop for a while), but her coords are perfect.

>>6547898
This girl is like, my favourite Lolita. I especially love her in red.

>>6547898
Yeah I really like her. I just wish she didn't wear those boots in almost every single coord. I do love the look of the boots. But man, she wears those boots all the damn time.

Oh and she posts infrequently but I have seen her around for the past two years I think and I believe she's been around longer than that.

>>6547101
>>6547125
There should be some unwritten rule that your outfit should be at least as aesthetically appealing as your background. If you know your outfit's nothing special, just take the picture in your room or something. I look at these photos and want to shop the girls out.
In the same vein, every time I see an ita posing in Versailles a bit of my soul dies. Maybe I'm just crazy.

I quite like the shoes and the whole idea of this, but damn that sweater is awkward tucked into that skirt and the skirt looks way too small.

>>6547994
I'm more bothered by her shoes than anything else in the outfit. She needs something in her hair to tie it together too. I like the rest though.

>>6547994
It would look okay if that skirt had a proper waistband, but it doesn't. What's going on here? It looks like a half-inch fully elasticated band that she's stretching to the max. It looks super uncomfortable.
Also she really needs better shoes.

>>6547898

her outfits would be really cute if the motifs in her coords didn't clash so often. A cutesy bunny print t-shirt with a classy perfume bottle print skirt? Just...no.

>>6547047
I need that jsk in my life. Its a Meta LP jsk correct?

This girl puts together the greatest coords imo

>>6547898
>>6547917
>>6548088
Cute as fuck.

I'm not crazy about the coat. It somehow strikes me as...costumey? Like something from the bad side of F+F?

And oh Lord, that hair. No. I had that same hairstyle when I was 12, and it looks just as bad on a chubby 12-year-old girl as a twenty-something guy. He's also got a bad case of crazyface.

>>6548905
I've seen this guy already. Maybe on tumblr? He has a nice sense of style, imo. He just needs to lose that wig and use better fabrics. I think he has a lot of potential, thought.

>>6547994
I actually really like this. Even thought the skirt is short, I think it kind of fit the package.
But with a skirt that high, she needs a bit more going on in her legs/feet region. Better, mor imposing shoes would help.
The shoes and the photo quality (lightning/background) are the only thing feeling wrong to me.

>>6548905
Good lord is that guy creeptastic. Are you sure that's not a wig?

And I'm pretty sure that jacket IS F+F.

>>6548955
The post doesn't say anything about a wig, and he lists the coat as handmade.

>>6548905
Why do I get the feeling he reminds me of someone... Like Jafar from Aladdin? Even though Jafar didn't have hair like that, or the same facial hair...

>>6549029
LOL you're so right! He just looks like a villain!

>>6547091
I dont know how to pose ok ;-; lol

Im awful at it, and I was mostly doing it to show off the print? Im not sure. And yeah I was wearing a petti.

>>6549066
Why do your hands look so fat.

>>6549066
Yeah, I don't get why people get all bent out of shape about these poses, you usually do have to pull the skirt out to show off the full print because even with a full petti, the skirt will have enough gathers to distort it.

Don't worry about it. There are worse poses out there.

>>6549110
maybe because they are fat? I dont know?

>>6549114
Yeah, true :) I mainly took them to show to my mom at first, she likes most prints that I own. The resolution on the originals are fairly high so she can zoom in to look at them. That was my first ever post on DL, so more than likely next one I post will be more variety I guess.. haha.

>>6549133
I think that dress looks cute on you. I usually think that dress is fugly too.

>>6548905
he looks like a white Snoop Dogg/Lion.

>>6549181
Thank you! That actually means a lot since this is so plain, Im relatively new to lolita and still building my wardrobe up.

Also- contributing because I feel awful since I have taken up this thread.. She is absolutely STUNNING and I love the entire post by her. So beautiful.

>>6549201
L O FUCKING L

he does look like a white snoop dogg!

>>6549201
Nah, it looks like a bad Prince costume

>>6549212
That skirt is hideous

>>6547898
I like her coords, but she should get different glasses.
>>6548905
She should borrow his wig.

>>6549350
I do really like this coord, but I agree, I hate the fat flying babies. Aren't there any painting skirts that don't have people on them?

>>6549212

I love those shoes and what she did with her hairpiece.

>>6549350
I think the stockings kill the outfit, as well.

>>6547125
WHY DOES SHE STAND LIKE THAT?

>>6549212
holy fuck the god-tier matching in this coord - even the hair matches the shoes

>>6548905
cannot unsee

>>6548905

>>6549422
>I like her coords, but she should get different glasses

I agree. Although I feel like if she ever did a classic coord her face and glasses and hair would look really cute for one. I can't really tell if she's wearing any makeup either, but I feel like if she's going to do sweet she should put a little more on, especially around her eyes.

>>6547125
This girl can't dress for shit. I have seen not one photo of her with a nice looking outfit on.

>>6549212
She really is quite striking.

>>6549212
Wow. GORGEOUS.

>>6554042

WTF is that shit in her nose, ruining the picture.

>>6554042
>nose piercing

So how much coke does she snort?

>>6554832
Why the hell would having a nose piercing mean you snort a lot of coke? If anything it would make getting coked out more difficult and messier. The coke would get all stuck around the piercing instead of going where it's supposed to. I'd think you take the piercing out while snorting the coke.

>>6554839
Oh its very common to degrade yourself when you do coke because it does some crazy stuff. Why do you need efficiency when snorting it? Doing coke is terrible in the first place. Have you seen the nutrition facts for cocaine?ha its a joke. But really all these lolitas that have a tattoos/piercings are doing some crazy stuff. Just talking is enough to tell me I should avoid them altogether and keep it my interests private.

>>6554848
You need efficiency when you snort it because cokes fucking expensive.

>>6554851
So what it is? Snorting coke is not a good idea in the first place so why snort it? Kinda sad when I see a large portion of the community injecting or snort and have no self control. Also kinda funny at the same time but bah im just blabbering now.

>>6554859
You have a pretty shitty attitude. Tattoos and piercings are not the sign of a criminal or a drug addict or that they are degrading themselves.

Bumping in hope of this thread actually getting back on topic. When did cgl become a bunch of paranoid grannies who think that everyone with a piercing is a drug user?

>>6549029

Evil Abed from Community

>>6555036
No kidding. What the hell was that?

In other news, good God I love corfina's outfits.

How did I know that was gonna start a shit storm. Anyway, here's a close-up of the head piece, I think she made it herself.

Something about this one just seems a little off. I think it's the legwarmers?

>>6555232
She is awesome. I wouldn't even mind if she was a fucking addict cause she'd still be fucking awesome. Seriously, all her coords are perfect.

>>6554839
You know how if you suck through a straw with a hole, you don't suck any of the drink up and only get air from the straw piercing? I just had a very funny image of someone with a nose piercing, with the piercing out, having trouble with coke like that.

>>6557386
I agree that the legwarmers are a problem. I think tights would have been better as they would be more slimming. I'd say the same about her rocking horse shoes' ruffles. Without them, I think the feet and legs would look less 'stumpier'. I also disagree with the eye makeup.

>>6557422
also her headbow looks like it's mint colored while the dress etc is a baby blue. The pink colors also clash- one is this beige-peach-pink and the other regular light pink.

Basically a hot mess of colors

>>6557386
tights+legwarmers would have been better
those shoes are ugly as fuck
but i LOVE the glasses. she should have bangs too

>>6562020
I disagree, I don't like the glasses at all!
As bad as legwarmers are I don't think these ones are too bad; just the colours in this co-ord are a bit all over the place and not well-balanced.

>>6557386
I think it's a combination of things. I'd say headbows, wig, shoes, and legwarmers.

From the lighting, (like another said) the headbows look mint and don't match the sax of the dress, while the shoes are TOO dark of a sax (though that can be overlooked because matching shoes exactly is one hell of a bitch to do).

The wig looks....like old lady hair to me. It's too light and...thin/fried looking. And the legwarmers, like others have said, don't go at all and make the legs look stubby.

She as a great style, altought I would have worn RHS with it

>>6566295
Oh no, that dress is way too short.

>>6566332
No, it just seems really short because of the knee socks. Switching them for tights would help with the proportions.

>>6566332
Actually, I think that length is a little more flattering than knee length. Maybe if she switched up to tights or OTKs it would seem longer.

>>6566332
I think that the skirt length isn't a huge issue, but the waist on the dress is waaaaay higher than her waist.

Sadly thiss is how most brand sits on me as well.

>>6555219
She does a lot of selfmade hairpieces and they're all amazingly gorgeous. Does anyone know if she makes any for sale or commission?

I'm envious of all of you being able to wear daily lolita outfits.
I feel like I'm too old to even pull a casual lolita, ven though I don't even look my age.

>>6567090
right there with you.

Maybe casual classic is for you?
Fanny does a bang up job of that.

>>6567090

>>6548088
That outfit is amazing but the hairstyle is completely throwing me off. It looks so out of place.

>>6566295
That looks so... old school!
Hate the shoes, though, and agree with you on the RHS.

I love this skirt, but not sure how I feel about this bonnet

>>6547994
that sweater is really cute, but the whole thing just looks awful. she would look great if those clothes were a better fit.

>>6568565
I think the bonnet is sort of cute, very Jane Eyre.

>>6568565
I like the bonnet. It reminds me of a cute puffy newsboy cap and she can pull it off quite well.
The cardigan looks a bit small on her, though.

>>6547125
>she
..
are you sure?
