I know the one you mean and I am so annoyed to discover that I don't have a saved copy in my files, because I really liked her photography. This girl, right? I really hope someone else has it & can post!

OP

Of course I would love to see a lifestyle revival, I feel like it was an important part of the fashion. It's also something I personally enjoy and miss. Lolita used to feel more personal and, to quote someone else from another thread "sentimental."

Another quite from another thread:
"I think the lifestyle aspect is half the charm of the fashion, and people who think that a girl trying to make herself a little more refined and who has feminine and old fashioned interests is a freak are the same people who are gonna thing the clothes are freaky too. I honestly think people who think the fashion is weird or perverted might be more accepting of the clothes if people kept the lifestyle and explained it was about trying to bring back some old fashioned charm in the modern world."

I was heavily inspired by Princess Portal and Lolita Charm back in the day. They both had some very inspirational and cute writings. I miss them dearly. They inspired me to not be afraid to enjoy the things I felt silly for enjoying.

I miss older style Lolita in general, and I also miss the photo shoots of Lolitas "in their natural surroundings" versus the endless mirror shorts and basic cute poses we see these days. I'd like to see a revival of "less daily shots, more artistic shoots" as well.

I'm not old enough to (I got into Lolita right before the OTT sweet boom) but I'm so curious to see pictures from that long ago. Googling one of the names brought this up, I am in love with it.
