Repost:
I don't wear Jfashion anymore but can't stop coming here. I've considered making a thread on /fa/ but there's hardly any girls and everyone just wears their gothninja/palewave/etc shit.
I want to talk about Kylie Jenner, fake nails, western makeup, maybe some onee gyaru, just ANYTHING artificial yet fashionable. And I can't do that on /fa/. But if I make a thread on /cgl/ it'll most likely get deleted straightaway.

I hate how internally competitive I get but I'm especially upset because I'm incredibly aware that I'm out of shape and not even sure if I could execute half the things I'd like to do for the cosplay I have planned. Feels real fucking bad.
I really want a lolita friend or two but I really don't like gatherings in big groups. I've tried going to meet ups but there's so many people its more exhausting than anything else? A lot of the members in my comm are a lot older than me as well so its hard to connect with them.

Inb4 "just do it the healthy way", naaah, but I promise to eat healthier and exercise after these 10 days of shitting are over.
Fire Emblem Fates is coming out Friday! How about some cosplay.
When it comes out I wonder which characters are gonna be the most cosplayed
pic definitely not related

Coord help thread!
Post collages or floordinates and get advice. Don't forget to give advice too!
I'd like advice on this coord, going for an old school style. Not sure what kind of socks to get, and want to add more red with some kind of brooch or necklace. Also might get black RHS instead of the flatforms depending on how the colors look together.
>>8889998
Nothing there is very oldschool at all, maybe just the skirt.
1) Oldschool doesn't use chiffon blouses like that. Get a suitable second hand brand one or look at anna house or something. A big Peter Pan collar might be nice. In that case ditch the choker.
2) That printed bag is very modern looking.
3) Lace should be chunky cotton or eyelet not tulle like on that headdress. Besided not looking oldschool, obviously mixing lace can be jarring.
4) Those shoes are wrong, especially the velvet. rhs would be a better idea, black is good. You can match it with a relatively plain black bag.
Also make sure you're not mixing ivory and stark white here, those lace up socks look quite white compared to the skirt's lace. Lace topped knee socks or a simple lace up design would be nice as long as they match. Wouldn't go for the strawberries personally. Keep in mind that headdress is velveteen too, I think baby had a more suitable wine/ deep red x ivory cotton lace one on their sale.
All this advice was because you said you were going for oldschool so relate to that specific look.
>>8889998
I'd recommend looking at some old school coords because you seem confused on the style.
You definitely want a cotton peter pan blouse instead of the chiffon sailor there. For socks, lace topped knee socks work well. If you can find wine rocking horse shoes or tea parties they would be really cute.

I am so ready to use Buynosaur for my next order, it's not even funny.
This is what's happened with my current order:
>Reach out to Taobaoring at first
>They respond immediately but then take days to respond back
>Decide to switch to Taobaospree
>Email back and forth what I need as quick as possible so I can get my package in time
>Get an email back that a seller sent the wrong color of my friend's item and I'll have to wait another two weeks for them to make it
>Definitely won't get my stuff in time for the con
I'm so disappointed as these were the first SS that I've used but they really screwed me over in this current order, all the good stories about Buynosaur is making me want to start using them for now.
>>8912358
It depends on the sellers, in my first-time experience. I've just had Buynosaur give up on a seller they contacted before Chinese New Year and haven't heard from since. Since I'm not in a hurry to get my items in I'm okay with it, but I'm sure that if you told them you're in a hurry they'd actually press the sellers. They're really good on replying to messages, and unprompted updates. I don't have anything to compare them to, of course, but I feel their care in every message, it's pretty great.
To the anon who bought the Zootopia stuff and provided links... I hate you. My "Oh I should get this just to have!" has spiraled into me trying to make an entire cosplay in just two months for a convention.
>mfw cosplay shops on Taobao have already made Zootopia police badges, police patches, and motherfucking Snarlbucks coffee cups

high-waist or zipper? I'll be selling one or the other, depends which cuts suits me more.
3 weeks till this ghetto con happens, whose all going?
I'm going. Wish I weren't.
>>8921669
Will you be cosplaying or mostly looking at merch and such?
This will be my first time going to a con, in cosplay too.
I'll be going, like every year. It's usually pretty fun, even if it's never exactly amazing.
Been a while since I've seen one. Where my Tales fans at?
Aselia Con just ended, any seagulls go? I pulled a couple of pics of what seemed like the better costumes off FB. Anyone else feel free to add their own photos.
Also, I'm pretty disappointed with the quality of the costumes overall. I know I shouldnt be surprised because its Tales, and Aselia Con definitely doesnt attract every Tales cosplayer in the country, but it seems that nearly everyone is overweight and not wearing any makeup. It's terrible.

The last one is saging... Let's keep them stories coming!
I have a 24 year old friend who acts like an anime character/cat to garner attention...
>>8911323
>playing DnD with friends in the common area of their college dorm
>DM has based one of her NPC's on "if I were an anime character!"
>said characters familiar is almost exactly Sebastian from black butler
>she keeps trying to prove how badass all her pet NPC's are
>literally screaming about all of this
>people are starting to look at us weird as they walk past, people who were studying at another table leave
>try to get her to shut up but she only gets louder
>other players only indulge and/or encourage her
>pretend to get sick so we can end our session early
That whole campaign was terrible and cringey.
I know one guy that I'm not even going to call a friend anymore because he's become such an asshole. Whenever he's at a con I have a room at he tries to find out what room I'm in so he can come up and try to mooch booze and food off of me and my friends. Whenever he hangs out with my group of friends at the con he complains about his lack of money (even though he spends 300+ on figures at every con he goes to that and he spends a good portion of his paychecks on weed). I also found out today that he has been repeatedly trying to hit on my friend even though he knows that she has a guy she is dating and went so far as to grab her ass but when she confronted him all he had to say was "well it already happened, I can't take it back".
Next time I see him in person it's going to be difficult to not do or say something.
Its that time of the year again.
How may of you SoCal seagulls are going? Any out of staters? Anyone need any advice? Maybe a ride? First time goers?
Discuss San Diego premier anime and Japanese culture convention here, friends.
>>8907735
one more week
still salty about sheena being the guest of honor
Going, i've never been to it before but my friends have, hopefully it'll be decent. everyone post their cosplay lineups?
I dunno what days i'm doing what yet but it's likely going to be Warp (Kaiba), Aoba (DmmD) and Ringabel (Bravely Default) for me.
>>8907735
If anyone is driving from LA to San Diego late late Friday or early morning Saturday to the con, I would really a[appreciate a ride. I could split the gas and snacks.
I want to cosplay but I don't want to show my face.
/cgl/ can you recommend any masked/helmeted characters to cosplay?
I am a girl, and I don't think I can cosplay men convincingly, if it helps.
Lesse what I can dig up.
Painwheel would be a good choice
Noodle from Gorillaz' masked outfit
Angewomon
A Power Ranger
San from Princess Mononoke
Various pokemon gijinkas
I'm thinking of starting one soon but all of the outfits I love are really complicated for my skill level. So, I'd like to see some pictures and hear about people working on their own cosplays! Also, is anyone going to fanfest this year?

Seaguls! Please help me! I need a inspiration for a pirate lolita / pirate ouji outfit!
Is anyone going there? How about we wait in the queue together?
>>8919641
I'll be there anon! Our group is going on Saturday. Never been before, what can we expect?
>>8919692
We just arrive on Saturday so we'll go on Sunday. I've never been there myself but expect large and I mean LARGE queue. Are you going to cosplay (we do, there are 2 of us)? Then don't arrive in a cosplay, wear inexpensive clothing yourself and take your cosplay with you.
So, are you going on Sunday as well?
>>8919697
We're getting to Japan on Friday and we have things planned for Sunday so we chose Saturday. One of our group plans on cosplaying but apparently we were reading about it and you can only cosplay in a designated hallway for it? Is that true? Sucks if it is.
Results are in from this round.
