That's funny because she's short irl.

I'm sure the photo was taken from a low angle, the way standing portraits are supposed to be taken.

I heard about 'Lolita' when I was in junior high. I didn't try making coords, but I would wear pieces an ita would own in my everyday wear.
Shitty pleaser shoes, frumpy petticoats, just the cheap stuff anyone can get. Generally back in those days I was just 'that weirdo' and I couldn't hide my power level for shit.
I didn't actually start learning about it and really making an effort until I rediscovered the style.
Now that I can make some better choices I've gone right for brand pieces and working within a set budget.

My advice for you is to lurk more and acquire an eye for what will suit your body type and skin tone and style.
Sure sweet is gorgeous on the right girl, but is is right for everyone? God no.
Figure out what style will look best on you, browse the BST threads, your comm's Facebook, the sales pages and know what you want to buy and for what price.
I have a itty bitty folder saved of things I want and a massive collection of inspiration.
If you see something you like, look it up, find the seller, get a price tag, sit on the find for a day, if you still love it, work out a way to get it.
Some girls buy what is available and sell it later if it doesn't suit them.
I'm in it for specific goals in mind and will acquire only what I really can't live without.

Also look at the info for Taobao, you'll be able to get a lot of inexpensive parts of your coordinates together there that you won't find in an outlet, but research the sellers to make sure you aren't getting shafted.

Good luck!

Have a random, on point, simple coord.

With all the OTT nonsense like OP, I really enjoy the simplicity of this one. It's lovely
