>>Best/worst thing thats happened to the community over the last decade?
The banning of some major cows. Some made a big stink about leaving, others went without much notice. We’ve had some really great fancy meets, but with the older crowd moving away we don’t currently have the numbers to support the cost of such events. But we’ve also had some great smaller meets since then too. My comm also had a road trip to another comm once. It was a lot of fun.

>>Favorite/least favorite trend?
Old school. I love that I have more people to get excited with about old school now than 10 years ago, but it sucks its harder and more expensive to find now too.

>>What are your goals for the next 10 years? Will you still be wearing the fashion?
My wardrobe is pretty big so I don’t see it growing too much in the next few years. I thought I was too old/grew out of my sweet phase, but here I am buying up all the Sugary Carnivals I can find. I’m sure I’ll still be wearing it in 10 years from now, but I won’t be surprised if they styles I wear changes a bit. I’ve been favoring longer length stuff recently too. Maybe I’ll go more ega than egl?

>>What will happen to the lolita community over the next 10 years?
I’m expecting another ott sweet boom. We’ve seen an old school renaissance, so I’m sure 2008-2012 sweet resurgence isn’t far behind. I also don’t think the Moitie resurgence won’t last long. Too many accessory releases, not enough main pieces. It’s good for padding my wardrobe, but there’s not enough to offer the young blood or trend hoppers for it to last imo.

Pic is some of my favorite pieces I currently own. I don’t have any of the items I use to own 10 years ago anymore.
