Okay, I have 2 1500 word reserch essays due in like 48 hours though so if my dumping is spasmodic thats why.

> Which public figures have done lolita fashion in the past, but are no longer known just for wearing lolita fashion? People like Kate and Jillian don't count.

I dont know how to feel about them shoes

She always most expensive and gorgeous clothes but is a horrible failure at coordinating outfits.

Maybe it's the old fag in me but damn I can't dislike them no matter what. They were my dream shoes when I got in to the fashion.
Do you like to attend cons alone, or do you have to bring your cosfam with you?
I'm about to attend my first solo con out of state (friends decided last minute to marry and honeymoon in Europe), so I was wondering, how do you have fun? Do you get social with other cosplayers?
I always go to cons alone because I'm a sperg who can't make friends.
I feel like I miss the 'point' of conventions, but whatever.
I usually just kinda lurk around and maybe buy stuff + attend whatever panels I wanted to go to. I have fun, but I don't talk to people much unless I get 'adopted' and then it's scuttling around with whoever wanted to be friendly.
Alone! Because no friends, unfortunately.
I've only went alone, but since I was cosplaying as Tomoko, it felt right.
Hi seagulls, long time no see. I'm hoping to go to the AP tea party in Paris in July. I've been planning coords and I don't have any shoes to go with my navy cosmic jsk. I'm thinking of buying either silver or gold (leaning towards silver so I'll have an excuse to buy me a silver melty moon bag....) but those are hard to come by, especially since I want to avoid replicas, and I also can't wear high heels to save my life.
I found pic related on ebay and they don't ring a bell replica-wise, though I could be wrong. If anyone has them can you tell me how comfortable they are?
I'm open to any other suggestion /o/ thanks!
>>9012001
*avoid AP replicas. As in, for the tea party. I don't care if they're replicas of other brands.
Sage for derp.
>>9012001
Those look like a replica of Baby's Antique Ribbon shoes, but maybe a pointier toe? Can't find a photo, but they came in gold as well as silver for a couple of releases.

can't find a photo of silver*

LACC hasn't been able to support AX attendance numbers for a while. They don't have enough big rooms for panels which is part of why you have long ass lines. By size it's around rank 34 in the US.

A small, happy little haul.
I didn't want to do a Taobao order until late May, but then the Collared Dove series popped up. I knew I had order that divine blouse before the store became overwhelmed with orders for it (and alas, they closed the preorder for the blouse already). My *true* Taobao haul later this month will be way more socks/shoes/cosplay.
And gotta have menhera tights for whenever Bunny & Black finally re-release the Nurse JSK.
Last one's gone the way of Old Yeller.
Less than a month to go, are your cosplays done yet?

Yeah that's probably how this thread will go.
Anyone heading it from NY? How are you guys getting there?
My cosplay is pretty much done.
I'm still salty that Nick refuses to swap my panel, though. What's so hard about swapping panels? I'm a first time panelist so maybe I'm not getting something. I've heard in recent years that the old panel director had no issue moving panels..

Anyone have some cord inspiration using royal blue and white?
>>8962088
This is the closest thing I have to a royal blue/white.
Also, is there any update on the NYC nanchatte meetup? Completely forgot to email anon, so if you're around, please drop your email again.

>>9011976
guro lolita isn't exclusively menhera anon
it kinda CAN be but menhera doesn't really go for the broken doll creepy halloweeny look which guro lolita can have
>>9011981
Guro lolita =/= menhera/gurokawa you fucking newfag.
>>9011981
>>9011980

There's some shitty uchuu kei stuff in that nintendo social app right now.

I don't know if it would be considered uchuu but BALMUNG has a similar feel to hatra's work, plus spacey graphic prints

I'm on my phone so super short post.
What are you doing?
How has your cosplay been holding up?
Have fun?

Bout to head over late for the last night my dudes. I hope I can meet at least one person
This con was a total disappointment for me. Aside from the hotel security going full gestapo, the con itself was kinda a bust. Absolutely no good events or panels and the exhibit hall was mediocre at best. Artist Alley seemed alright, but that's not really my thing.
We had a good party going, but only an hour and a half or so into it we got a first and final warning from the hotel. We checked with all our neighbors beforehand and everyone was cool with us throwing the party, so whoever complained wasn't even in the surrounding rooms. The way the hotel handled everything really killed my vibe and I just drove all the way back to SoCal yesterday evening, wasn't worth it staying any longer in San Jose.
Still looking forward to AX, ACC, and ALA. Don't think we'll be going back up to Fanime any time soon tho, this con was a disaster. The only redeeming quality was being able to hang out and drink with some cool people despite the hotel's best efforts to stop any fun from happening.
Come drink legally at the fairmont lobby

Can we have a big and pretty dresses thread?
I really want to make this but I don't know how to do the skirt.
I'm not the biggest fan of full length skirts because i am quite short, but i don't know how I'd style this in a shorter length.
>>9027032
With floor length stuff, I use the opportunity to wear larger heel/platform shoes. The skirt will hide how crazy the shoes are and you get some nice leg height which in combo with a smaller torso can give the illusion of having goldon ratio proportions.
