> Is it acceptable to wear sneakers or flats with casual lolita?
Yes, but only if they are colour coordinated.

> Is it acceptable to go without petticoat or bloomers?
No.

> Has casual lolita changed over the years?
To me, the matching brand t-shirt + skirt combination is the old school way of doing casual lolita. Pic related is something I think is 'modern' casual lolita. But I've only been into lolita for a couple of years so idk.

> What do you think of soft lolita?
I think it's just something Misako made up and not really ''a thing'' (at least in the West) but I kind of like it, and secretly wish it was a thing. I see it often gets mixed in with otome kei but it's different from otome. The colour combination and mixing of patterns definitely sets it apart, and I don't think Misako would ever wear shorts or trousers and call it soft lolita.

> Should casual coords be posted to CoF?
It really depends on the coord... Some of them are not really lolita anymore and I think that's okay, that's what it's casual lolita for, but I wouldn't post those type of coords in CoF.
