Eesh. Sorry. I may have gotten a little carried away there. I wanted to get all of the detail and didn't think to use a photobucket or something similar. Please forgive me.

Last one I could find. Green butterfly necklace with about $80 worth of crystals. Willing to let it go for $50, but price is negotiable. The leather straps can be easily replaced with ribbons to make it girlier, and I'll post a back shot in a second.

Just a cute little red and gold dragonfly clip. Very strong. $5

This is a pin that was found at an estate sale and cleaned up. It can also act as a clip, which you'll see in the next photo. Be very careful if you decide to use this as a hair clip since it's a little heavier than most hair clips and not suitable unless you're pinning it in like a mofo. $10

Found one of the hair clips. Sorry for the tacky lolbedspread pictures, I couldn't find any decent fabric to use as a backdrop. Prices are negotiable, but something like this would usually go for around $15-$20, possibly lower if you purchase more than one item.

I'm staying at my parent's house up north until after Christmas, but I'll post pics once I get home. They've got Swarovski crystals and are meant for super thick hair. The spring part is really strong, too. I've got a necklace somewhere around here that someone might be able to use in a coord. Lemme go find it real quick and post a pic.

These threads seem like they're for clothes and wigs, but I've got a bunch of really nice hair clips for longer hair just sitting in my jewelry box. They've never been used since I have shorter hair and they're more fit for long, thick loli wigs. Would anyone want that sort of thing, or is selling/trading hair accessories kind of a no-no in these threads?

>GREAT PARTY MIGRATION

It was like the party people were all migrating to different rooms and were always one step ahead of the cops. It was the best thing ever.

How awesome would it be if a bunch of people picked up the edges and pretended it was a parachute from elementary school gym class?

I think a lot of lolita styles are pretty in a conceptual way, but I'd think anyone wearing it out and about to get groceries or something would be kind of silly.

Whenever I'm on my period and the rest of /cgl/ is especially brutal or catty, I think the rest of you are on the rag, too. It's horrifying to think about.

I have no respect or pity for fat cosplayers/lolitas who keep complaining about their weight. It's just asking for asspats. If you were really concerned about your weight, you'd do something about it. Fat people who have a legitimate thyroid problem or who are comfortable with their bodies are okay.

Some of the so-called "creepy" photographers are actually pretty chill dudes who laugh about the cosplay community and think the majority of you are whiny cunts.

I like God and his cosplays.

More of an antihero than a villain, but Dogwelder might be up your alley. The guy has got some serious problems.

She thinks that he's a nice young man and would like to have him over for dinner some time.

My mom calls cosplaying "dressing up like your animes." She gets a kick out of seeing a bunch of people in pretty costumes whenever I show her pictures from a con. She also refers to Madoka as "Magical Maracas." Super kawaii.

Cigarettes, water, and whatever food deals I can wiggle out of hotel staff by schmoozing with them. Got a comp'd dinner a few times during Katsucon for being personable and talking with front desk people for a while.

There's something very different about small town hillbilly weebs.

It also works for picking at them if the reason you're doing it is because the skin is uneven. Sorry for speed-reading through your comment.

If you're biting at your lips because they're chapped, try taking a wash cloth and roughly scrubbing at your lips after a shower to slough all of the dead/uneven skin off. It'll hurt like a bitch at first, but you'll have a new layer of skin that can heal faster. Carry around some flavored lip balm or something so that putting it on throughout the day won't feel like such a chore.

Keep your nails trimmed down short and carry around a nail file/clippers with for when you break a nail or something so that you won't be tempted to gnaw it down. Once you get them to a normal length, try painting them a vibrant color to deter biting at them. Nobody likes messy-looking nails. Orly no bite is a brand of bitter-tasting polish that you can try using, and it's usually under $5 a bottle. Good luck.

Ah, alright, then. Again, I apologize. The cosplay and general convention community has been around for a very long time, which is awesome. It's always fun listening to stories from older fans about shows, conventions, or how they've applied their costume-sewing skills to things like sewing their kids' cosplays/Halloween costumes.

I apologize if it came across as a derailment attempt. I was making a reference to a very old /cgl/ joke and hoped that a few other people would remember. It won't happen again.
