Yes, jumping on the band wagon. There has been some interesting one that I have read through the 4 blogs I've stumbled upon.
It is nice to see people letting down that hidden panel to reveal what bugs them greatly about stuff. So what are my 5 pet peeves of Lolita.
1: It is just too short. D:
Like a number of us in the loli community we are taller than 5'4" which can bring the trouble of length to our attention. We love our brand, even if it is just one item. Doesn't matter if it is a top or bottom or dress we run the risk it won't fit some where.
May it be the length of the sleeve or the hem of skirt, it can get annoying. We all look for ways of how to hide it from the simple wrist cuffs to the underskirt or extra ruffle. Though in some cases, camera angle or body posture is a secretive way of doing things.
2. Your petti isn't fluffy enough! :O
*look about* I'm not saying I hate there being no fluffed up skirt, I hate being told that I have to have a mega fluffed up skirt. Seriously it can take away a good few extra inches away from the leg and me being about 5'7", I don't want to be flashing that much extra leg to people if I can help it. Remember it is a modest fashion to begin with.
3. My hair
Ok, that is a more personal thing but dammit, why not complain about it. I once spent 4 hours using a curling iron just to have all my curls die with an hour. I've tried so many ways to get my hair to work but it hates me. The only reason I had any curls in my picture at the winter meet up is because I used a lot of hair spray. Now if only I didn't love that prefect curl bunched up pig tail style with the straight fringe and front sides. Cruse my love for it.
4. Why no love for normal glasses?
Yeah, I get it super big geeky glasses are the fashion right now in the fashion and one of the most accepted eye ware next to contacts but why must I feel ashamed a little for having these specs. I can't see without them and I'm terrified of anything going close to my eyes, that may end up poking them. I'm stuck with these because of such a thing happened to me. :( I don't like wearing glasses, I've tried to go without but migraines and walking into a lamp post is kinda not fun. These are the secrets I've hated the most in the past. We can take them off because we can't see and not all of us want to wear or can wear contacts. Though I would love laser surgery but I hear the pin you eyes open while you are awake. I'm sorry, knock me the heck out first please. kthxbai.
5. ... "Elites"
The so called people we must look up to and be like and follow in their steps to greatness. No, thank you. I rather just be me, wearing what I want. Yes, I make mistakes here and there but who doesn't it. Doesn't mean I want someone to take my hand and tell me what to do and not. Sure you can share you knowledge and views but don't get upset if I want to try and find a way to try to make it work. Is it that the fun thing with fashion, I openly admit when I think I've ita myself down the wrong path. Plus I think it would be more fun to have tried something sharing how terrible it went than saying "They told me not to, so I didn't and neither should you." I think I rather have the something more along the lines of "That is what happened with me, I've heard of few other horror stories but it is up to you if you want to try." I think that sounds more personal and you never know, someone may make what seem like the impossible possible.
Well that is my 5 top peeves of the fashion. What are yours? Share? Discuss? Whatever, just have fun. :D

Now blue is my favourite colour
#483D8B |
Your dominant hue is blue, making you a good friend who people love and trust. You're good in social situations and want to fit in. Just be careful not to compromise who you are to make them happy. Your saturation level is medium - You're not the most decisive go-getter, but you can get a job done when it's required of you. You probably don't think the world can change for you and don't want to spend too much effort trying to force it. Your outlook on life can be bright or dark, depending on the situation. You are flexible and see things objectively. |
Just a bit of fun since I need to make another post, err and not forget what I'm suppose to be doing.

Square or sweetheart necklines

I get sucked into prints but not to busy prints

Gothic
Which style do you wear regularly?
I guess boy style since I need more items to have more outfits, then it would be sweet/classic/gothic
Which style you want to try out?
faery-kai Lolita only because I love MLP so much that I would buy pony hoodie and wearing pink leg warmers.
Which style you never want to try out/wear again?
Don't really know yet to be honest, since I feel I should at least try them once before knocking it.
BRANDS
Brands yes or no and why?
Yes and no, to be honest I own one piece of brand so far and that is a blouse. I can't really make an opinion since I don't have much knowledge on the matter but I do love the velvet piece in brand.
Which brand is your favourite?
Baby and Metamorphose, I love piece from them the most to be honest.
Which is your least favourite brand?
Angelic Pretty, I really don't enjoy their prints as much and call me old fashion but I don't like the skirts getting shorter. I hate my thighs, I want them covered.
Ever had a good/bad experience with brand?
Not really qualified to answer that sorry.
Will this experience encourage/stop you from buying brand?
^As above^

Did you ever got surprised by a piece of Lolita?
Baby's Mermaid print, the pearls just blend in to the print and look like they aren't real there.

Not yet

Simple looking pieces that don't over whelm me.

Buttons on the back of a dress, I find it stupid.
Do you have a Lolita fashion idol, if 'yes' who is it?
No, not to my knowledge.
Does Lolita affect your every day life?
It should when it comes to this blog and my need for sewing but I need to push my self to do that more so not yet.
Do you buy Lolita related things, like cute looking furniture?
No, I just get things I like. If it Lolita related then it is a bonus.
Do you read/buy the Gothic Lolita Bible?
I own all the English ones but I love Gosu Rori, I should try and buy at least one Japanese GLB so I can see more and get more patterns.
How to you describe your fashion style to others that don´t know about Lolita?
Well it is sort of based on older fashion styles with a bit of a modern twist. It is a fashion about keeping a modest look but still looking cute and not old and granny like.
Is there something you want to say to your fellow Lolitas?
Don't fear the communities, if you are unsure about them watch and learn. They aren't going to rip you a new one they are only wanting to help you get they style right. You can experiment with the fashion but understand if it doesn't have a Lolita look to it, then they will tell you and try and help you tweak it a bit.
