eh, last one reached maximum images and people wanted another, so why not? I'll probably not post another one until this thread entirely disappears from the catalog unless someone else wants to when that happens.

I hate poorfags I guess

The constant complaining about the cost of lolita and I guess even cosplay, is all half the community talks about.

It's hard to have any meaningful discussion or make friends with similar interests when it all gets flooded out by people who don't own a full coordinate because their budget or sizes or culture doesn't allow it. I mean, why are you even in a lolita group if your only input, is why you can't wear lolita?

If you actually do your research and have patience, you can find good deals and get nice dresses for 2000 yen. Maybe not the specific print or colorway you were hoping for but you can at least wear the god damn fashion or resell it to another moron like yourself and get the one you actually want.

It's strange to me that most high fashion communities I have seen aren't also this way, crying about how a dolce & gabbana shirt is $500 and the dress they want is $2000. The cost of lolita is a joke in comparison and yet we are overrun by incompetent people with no jobs or work ethic to afford the fashion, let alone the taste and appreciation for quality to assemble something that the public at large wouldn't scoff at.

The absence of precious burando has forced some people to incorporate pieces from their normal wardrobe, which, if they had good taste, would be an interesting experimentation that could even start a new trend! but instead we almost inevitably end up with itas, and if the coord was different in a good way, the volume of people with poor judgement would result in a majority vote of "This is not loli!" or some such nonsense. The community is more often than not embarrassing to be a part of.

A bit of an odd thread, but basically: lolitas doing shit outside. I don't care if they're posing, sitting, doing stuff, carefully examining a perfectly ordinary branch, anything really. I'd love to see inspo for composition, lighting, post editing, etc. Bonus points if it's a themed photo and not just posing by a fence/door.
