What kind of dreams have you had, which made you realize you're way too invested in cosplay or J-fashion?
I once dreamed about finding a rack full of lolita in a thrift store. I wish it were true.
You know that dream people have where they show up to class or work naked? I sometimes dream I show up at a meet without a petticoat and wearing dirty ragged shoes. Terrifying, that one.
I don't sew very well, so I alter cosplays I order, but I had a dream where I was at a convention and this kid called me out on not being a real cosplayer because I didn't make everything from scratch. Then a whole lot of other people started bashing on me all at once right after the kid spoke. I was forced to back up to the top floor of the convention center and I fell off over the balcony then woke up because suddenly I was in a falling dream.
:| Yeah. Fun times.
Nostalgia time. Remember "the" Hot Topic dress that came out in 2005 or so? And the dramatic posts saying that lolita was "now dead" because girls would go into Hot Topic, buy the dress and declare themselves lolita? Good times.
What are some other 'remember whens'?
Is is too soon to remember the collective rage when that CTP was cut apart?
>>8704516
There's still collective rage about that because she still won't shut up about it.
Oh man. Was that dress really 2005? I thought it was a bit later than that.
Remember when Momo's Handicrafts was the Milanoo of the lolita world? Remember when they changed shop fronts about a dozen times due to negative feedback?

I want to commish someone to make me the body armor , helmet, and shin guards from Licenseless rider, but I don't know what is a reasonable price. This is my first major cosplay attempt.

If you aren't sure yet of how long exactly it will take, then you probably shouldn't be doing these things, but let's give you the benefit of the doubt.
For now since it looks like it won't take you too long and there's no rush on you, it's better if you try to look at prices of similar cosplayed that are commissioned by people of your skill level, and just judge by that.
In future commissions you might want to raise or lower your price to pay yourself a fair wage etc.
Always...

How did you do bitches do?
Earl grey and vanilla chai, I love anything with caffeine and have gone for tea casually before
Real talk though I better get dozing cat next time, I have never seen such a cute, non creepy cat print (I love cats but AP and other overly sweet prints make me cringe). I have a severe thirst for this print
>>8727625
Made out with nothing but I'll try again when they do the release. Still enjoyed myself though.
How has cosplay/jfashion affected your life? I'm sure most of us were embarassing weebs at one point, or still are, but hobbies generally help sculpt the person you become, how you dress, etc.
Share stories about your teenage weaboo anctics, clothing phases, cosplay improvement, etc. Has your hobby bettered your life in any way?
I wasn't acting like a weaboo in my teenage years because I was too embarrassed to do that (or even to do normal things, I'm glad I'm not as anxious now). But actually I was really annoying my sisters and tried to make them watch too many anime. They got tired of me really fast and now whenever the topic of bf/husband is brought up they immediatly say I'm gonna marry a japanese guy or a video game character as a joke.
I started to study Japanese in high school because of that. Since I couldn't study german in college because of my mediocre level...
