/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

my husband loves when I wear lolita out. He's even more uppity about it then I am.
>takes me out to dinner
>waitress comes up to us
>"excuse me, ma'am? I love your costume"
> husband rolls eyes "yeeaah 'costume'...."

I love him.

> be poor and can't justify buying expensive clothes
> graduate, get a job, money money money, pay off debt
> time to get into lolita after a decade of being pisspoor
> lol not happening, I must be a horrible landwhale
> at least there's always watching and shitposting
> check measurements
> fuck you cgl for convincing me everyone out there is disgusting landwhale and can't fit into precious burando
> aka. find out I can fit into burando I want
> time to get me some fancy clothes

Now I've found out I can afford burando and fit into it. (I never checked out if I could to give myself more reasons to stay away from lolita.) Money problems are gone. I can afford burando, but damn I don't have any self control. I've went from idly following new releases and second hand markets to spends all freetime stalking whether there's something I've always wanted.

I'm not sure if this is a good thing, but at the moment all this lace makes me ridiculously happy.

Sweet baby jesus.

>Decide to try becoming friends with another loli seagull who moved to my area. Message her over tumblr.
>Quickly become friends
>Find out we're the same shoe size
>I'm into Classic, she's into sweet, and she wants to try Classic.
>We go window shopping at local vintage shops yesterday, and find really cute vintage stuff that fits her well and looks super cute on her. We even find a shop with really nice, classic puppet tier a-line petticoats. Will have to go back and buy some.
>She lets me try on her Haenuli Dreaming Cinderella JSK, and it fits wonderfully(She had accidentally ordered the larger size, not realizing how large it ran, so it's really loose on her)
>Her boyfriend is pretty awesome, we geek out over stuff, and he even gets talking sports with my husband over dinner, and they have a good time.
>We even talk about helping out with cleaning each other's place and helping them with decorating and storage for their room.
>mfw, it was totally worth reaching out and trying to become friends. I've missed having a close friend I can geek out with over stuff and talk lolita.
