got a chest today, and while it needs some serious repairs it was piss cheap
Talking about Star Wars got me thinking... are dickswords actually acceptable if you're playing a Jedi?
>>8754969
dickswords are never acceptable. Also why would you leave your lightsabre on all the time?
New feels thread the other one is autosagging.
>tfw i just miss Princess Skye and Milky Fawn being in lolita
>Also i miss a french lolita no one really know about she inspired me a lot to get into the fashion
>now she's into super normalfag fashion
I just want to have a model...
>>8773674
Holy shit are you me, I was literally just reminiscing about The Princess Portal. I really liked her unconventional (but typical of the time maybe?) coords, like bustier and skirt with no blouse or cardi, it was still polished and neat somehow.
God I miss it so much. I tried to start a blog on a similar tone but I couldn't keep it going.
My best friend and cosplay buddy just dropped the bomb that she's moving out of the country. I'm completely devastated. I have a few months until she leaves, but, I just can't get over the fact that I may never see her in person again
My friend fell out of a cosplay plan with me ~5 years ago. I had already bought my fabric and made the costume anyways and wore it for 1 con. Another cosplayer has expressed interest in cosplaying the character that my friend never did in the end with me since I still have the costume. Is it okay to cosplay with the new friend? The old friend will be bitter to some degree I feel but she has never expressed interest in ever going through with the cosplay after she told me she wasn't going to do it 5 years ago. I really want to wear this cosplay again since it was one of my first ones that I completed all by myself so I'm going to alter it and fix it up before wearing it again. I really liked the costume too but nobody really recognized me without my other half at the con so it was a little disappointing.
With every special snowflake with a tumblr account trying to make up their own super cool new take on lolita fashion, I figure we should do it too!
Here what you do: take some stupid thing shit has nothing to do with lolita, and fucking make that shit lolita. Make coord collage and post it too.
You like hiphop? Well gangster lolita could be the next big thing!
Wear cutsews instead of blouses, sag your bloomers, find a kawaii snapback and throw on every piece of brand jewelry you own.
Who knows, your unique new style could be the next hit trend!

just want to say i appreciate your work creating the OP image, anon
Two days ago I got a mystery SAL package with lots of cute jewelry, I especially adore the mushroom ring! I think one of you gulls told me before you would send stuff directly to me. Thank you sooo much! It really fits my style well!
And Cara, I got your card, it's the cutest! Gliscor is indeed a bae and so are you<3
Why do people do it? It's so stupid, makes no sense, and is uncreative as fuck. Just "har har what if Captain America became slave Leia durrrr"
Just cosplay characters in their normal clothes you homos.
ew
They do it because they're lazy normalfags who want to feel like special snowflakes because they're the only ones to ever do X cosplay.
Look at the Lemongrab and tell me that doesn't make you smile. Crossovers are entertaining. Take the stick out of your sandy vagoo.

To start it off, Peppermint Fox just announced new items shortly after releasing their Tea Emblem collection. These will be available on Saturday.
Has anybody in the US ordered only brooches from them that would be able to give me a shipping estimate? Those bread brooches would be perfect for a dress I have on the way.
>>8724103
Ah, that's so cute!
>>8723937 halp?
It's a weird dress but it has a cute feel and I think it could work.
Specifically how Lolitas outside of the "ideal" seen in magazines achieve excellent coordinates that follow Lolita guidelines, be they tall, very short, extremely dark or pale, ugly, sharp features, masculine, whatever. I'm looking for photo inspiration and feel free to talk about your experiences. I'm struggling with an eating disorder myself so I wanted to see how others are making their differences work in great coords.
hey all, i am trying to make a airsoft loadout of the guy one the counter strike source cover, can some of you help me find what his uniform consists of?
You'd be better off asking /k/ than the faggots in here, OP.
Although they'll mock you for airshit.

>holy shit, something on /cgl/ I can give input on
let's assume you have the rifle (if not, buy literally any M4 with a carry handle iron sight) and full seal goggles (bonus points if the frame is black, then just rest them in your helmet between rounds to complete the look)
>helmet - Avengers Bump helmet in black
>chest rig - Avengers Assaulter chest rig (the closest I could find in appearance
>BDU - anything in navy blue
>gloves - see above
>balaclava - personal preference
>holster - Blade-Tec Revolution paddle holster
>knee pads - again, your choice. I'd recommend Condor Quick Release tactical knee pads
really wish I could just drop links to all of these, but the spam filter gets triggered
don't listen to people telling you to post in /k/, they'll just laugh at you and bump the thread off the board
Let's get back to basics, /cgl/. Share your favorite simple lolita coords.
>>8771992
Also, simple does not mean casual! Just basic.
>>8771995
Stuntman gel Grillby edition.
Working on anything?
Seen cosplayers at recent cons?
Share tutorials, ideas, questions.
For Muffet would it be better to paint black eyes over your closed eyes or do nothing at all? I am unable to wear sclera contacts.
>>8761738
i'd say just use heavy black eye makeup, don't just full on paint your lid black, itll look less try hard and silly
>>8761738
Not OP, but adding onto this, what if you just get black circle lenses with a large diameter and go heavy on the eye makeup?
Stupid hat edition.

Nozomi, why did they do this to you?
>>8719022
I really like the gold-trimmed roses just
>fluorescent purple
>SLEEVES
I don't understand
>>8719022
I knew her outfit wasn't going to look as nice as Kotori's, but this is just too much
The dress itself looks pretty nice though. Speaking of Nozomi, anyone know of a good wig for her on Aliexpress?
Monsters are fine, but I'd especially like good renditions of human characters from horror games. Any game qualifies.
I recently finished my Ashley cosplay from Until Dawn! (No makeup because it was just a test fitting)
>>8774011
Go away Ashley.

What the hell? Where did you all go?
Anyways is anyone planning on getting swankiss's lucky pack? I might ...
>>8738526
I've already ordered it! I'm so excited! I could do an unboxing when it comes
>>8738526
I'm going to get it, I can't say no to that bag.

anyone know which boards, sites, etc.. to request high quality cosplay commissions? If possible I'd like to specify regions because getting a fitting in person would always be ideal..
Pic kinda related, it's what I want to do but don't have the talent/time to make myself!
>>8775838
Facebook, Etsy (you'd have to go to them instead of having them come to you though) and you could post in forums related to what you're cosplaying from.
