/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

We all know Lolita can be an expensive hobby, and not everyone can afford to buy everything they want, So how do you budget for your wardrobe?

>What's your monthly/quarterly/annual budget?
>How do you decide which things to buy?
>Do/did you ever buy on impulse? If so, did you regret it?
>Any advice to offer with regards to buying?

I myself am having a hard time deciding whether to buy something or not, so I'd like to hear your advice, and I'm sure I'm not the only one!

Where is currently the "best" place to sell brand? I have a lot of items to sell but I can't seem to figure out which platform is being used/browsed the most.

>Lacemarket? Despite connection issues and horrible browsing
>Do people still post to Storenvy and link to LSE?

I have a good rating on eglfeedback but I never migrated selling to Lacemarket so I don't have any reviews there yet.
