The far left is absolutely old school, considering it as a style, not just a time period. Second on left is a stretch. Sure, there's black and white and it's fairly simplistic, but the prominent bow and cutesy pigtails push it into newer sweet territory. Nothing about the outfit as a whole says 'old school' to me. It's certainly no more old school then the two on right, which are both fine. Far right looks especially cute. She balanced the white perfectly.

Not saying it is, just that Chinese lolitas call anything with pants faggot style. Aristo with dresses isn't categorized separately at all, usually just called classic or gothic or "step-mom" style.

Also lol at the Lor secret. She honestly seems like such a nice person too, unlike Inuashley. I want to start a "buy lor plastic surgery and fillers" fund, but it would just be viewed as bullying11!!1

You know what makes it even worse? She's 33 years old. What she's doing might have been understandable if she was in her early 20's and just had moved out, but when you are in your 30's, you should either be mature enough to sell some of your brand, or have enough financial stability to not have to beg for money on the internet

I have a hard time believing they don't do this on purpose just to be 'cutesy.' I could understand if these brands were still small, but it seems like they have a large pool of connections and resources now that they could probably get ahold of a linguist from that language who could probably tell them what's what.

Anything not native to your home country language is usually considered cool. In America, most tattoo parlors have the Chinese word "ai", meaning love, and there are people who tattoo it or buy merchandise with the word without knowing what it means. The same applies to Japan, where they think English is a cool language so they try to use it as much as possible.
Butchering a language isn't intended, but when the consumers don't care whether it's a legit word or not, why bother?

But if someone tattooed a nonsensical sentence and English-speakers found out about it, they would still laugh. There's a difference between a word taken out of complete context to mean something abstract, and then a whole sentence that's supposed to be sensical. To most people it's pretty embarrassing.

>>8402179
When referring to yourself and another person, you always refer to them first. So it would be 'my mom and I'. You're correct that 'me' is also wrong.

Honestly it's not a huge deal, just incorrect grammar, so I'm not sure why everyone is getting twisted about it. Or is it about someone going to a mall with their mom in lolita?

>> No.8402575

>>8402179
It's usually polite to refer to someone else first, such as 'Rory and I, my teacher and I', etc.
However, it's a really common mistake, not just in English but other languages as well. It's not really a big deal and native speakers make this mistake all the time, but when people make this mistake it's usually 'me and my mum', whereas 'I and my mum' is a bit more incorrect and sounds unnatural. Hope that makes sense.
