/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

What degree did you get in college?
Associate of Applied Science

What profession do you work in now?
I'm a barista at Starbucks (for three years now,,,) But I'm currently looking for a job in my field (Funeral Service)

Is your salary enough to buy the brand you want?
Not right now, sadly. I'm new to Lolita (been lurking for years and finally made some friends that are in my local comm), but I have so many hopes and dreams that cannot be funded by my barely minimum wage job.

Just in case anyone was thinking of using Mehron's metallic silver cream base for Mettaton... DON'T. I tried it, and even with powdering it's extremely dark, creases, and settles into pores really fast. It's a good idea in theory, but I'm ditching the metallic cream and going with plain grey.

The blue 'water' doesn't really match any of the blues in her coord, and the brown of the vase looks really out of place. That's just my opinion tho, it's a cute idea.

>>8735037
Oh god it looks like she rubbed dirt on her face.

Holy shit

Is it just me or have there been a lot of thinly veiled vendetta threads lately?

>>8734870
Probably because its from a hentai doujin.

>>8733556
This thread is off to a glorious start.

>>8729765
Why does this exist.

It's smaller than Ikkicon, last I checked.

>>8727434
I'd tell you to lurk moar... but I actually haven't heard people talk about Frances in ages.

>>8723670
Now you're on a list. Smile for the camera!

>>8717672
Have another. I'm salty as fuck.

I've been lurking in threads for a year or so now and I'm finally taking my first step into lolita with something on the less expensive side. I want to see what style suits me before I take the plunge into expensive burando. Being a newbie, I appreciate suggestions and ideas.
(I know you don't technically need a blouse with an OP, but that neckline is sort of iffy and I can't decide if I want to cover it a little or not)

>>8717644
Unless the corset is entirely covered it's probably going to look a bit silly.

I was really hoping they were going to add Vaati...

Friends don't post friends on /cgl/, friend.
You're a nice height for Latvia, at least.

>>8711537
Where's your cosplay, bud?

>>8711220
Yep, that's the jellies. I remember they used to sequester themselves from everyone else at meetups, like they were somehow better than all the other nerds running around in uniforms.

>>8711000
Bruh I'm just excited that I ordered something off of ebay that arrived exactly as pictured with no problems, in the correct colour, lmao.

>>8710624
I actually found them on ebay! They ended up being around 45$ after shipping, which wasn't terrible. They're made of a nice stretchy vinyl so they stay fitted and give your calves a nice shape.

My Mettaton boots came in the mail today and they are g l o r i o u s.

I could honestly write a small novel on all the horrifying and cringeworthy things Hetalia cosplayers have done.
