I want to be the elegant BlueXblack lady I know I can be, but my I always end up in redXblack colorways.The Vampire look is so overdone and the real elegance is with the Dark Noble Lady look. Everytime I find something in Navy It always turns out looking more Classic than Goth. Maybe I'm styling incorrectly or something.

What's the best way to divvy up your figure and cosplay collection before death? How can I withdraw all my money from my checking account to give cash away to people before going? I don't really have friends to give my stuff away to but I feel bad knowing I have rare stuff that may end up in the trash when I'm gone. I know someone out there wants some of this stuff.

Try AnimeMarket, it's also on circlly. And hell, you can do a random giveaway to anons here or people at cons if you're going.

Bad behavior, you say? A few years ago I was going to tea with my husband down town, and a couple girls drove by us while we crossed the street. One of them rolled down the window and yelled "fatty-chan" at me. It didn't hurt my feelings, but made me curious as to which one of you it was...

I'm extremely lightly frustrated because I usually hate characters like her, but found her interesting enough to consider it. But it's not worth the effort with the reputation she's got now, and I am annoyed for the same reasons over Dabi and everyone shitting themselves over his 'relationship' to Todoroki (it's all just speculation and people wanting their incest) and it's making me hate the character. I bought materials to make his coat and they've been sitting there for 6 months untouched.

Idk if this fits in this thread since it’s a broad topic but

What do you gulls think about spray tanning for cosplays? There seems to be a huge disconnect with people claiming that spray tanning (or tanning in general) is race-baiting or even blackface. This ends with people sending their followers off to a witch-hunt to whoever tanned themselves.

Personally, I don’t give a shit. If you’re not going for super dark to where it’s obvious that you’re blackfacing, I don’t see a problem.

There’s too many cosplayers with the mindset that tanning=blackface

this is so retarded. people have been spraytanning for ages outside of cosplay. White people can tan naturally. Some can even get pretty dark.

I did a cosplay of an extremely tanned character a while back (who was initially Japanese), and I used this cream I picked up in Japan that's basically meant for getting that chocolate skin color that's prevalent in a lot of ouji. It made my skin roughly that. Looking back on it, I didn't get any insults or anything (in fact a lot of black people complimented the fuck out of my cosplay), and the only person who said was this white girl who put a really snide comment about how people shouldn't alter their appearances for cosplay on her story, and how she wouldn't be posting any photos with people who did that (ergo, me). Then again, I don't think she knows the backstory of the character I did. Every single person I talked to from every race had no problem with me doing that. I DO think that it looked weird, that the shading of the paint was way too brown for what I was going for

Real shame, too, because going as white for that character doesn't look good IMO, and I'd like to get at least one more wear out of that cosplay.

tl;dr the people that care are usually retarded, and it usually isn't a problem if the character is only tan (ie. not black)

Anon, don’t listen to that old bitter hag. Suicide is a big thing and isn’t something you should do impulsively. I’m going to assume you’re young, and even if you’re not, there’s tons of things in life you have yet to experience. The people around you may not be the most supportive and that’s okay, because later on you’ll meet new people and new friends. Maybe you’ll start a new relationship and have kids. You’ll never know if you get your happy ending if you end it now. You don’t know yet if things will get better. If you can, take a bath tonight and reflect on your life. Think of all the things you love that you’re leaving behind. And think of all the things you’d like to leave behind. Relax and really think about this. There’s plenty to live for in life. Nice food, pretty brand, comfy blankets, fun hobbies and whatever else you enjoy. Life isn’t always easy but that doesn’t mean you need to end things. :) hope you feel better soon anon.

I mentioned this earlier, but I think maybe surrounding yourself with different (mentally healthy) people would help a lot.

Being surrounded by friends who are just as depressed as you doesn’t really help you grow. Not saying you can’t be friends with them, but I noticed that when I started hanging out with more positive people I started feeling better myself. Maybe it’s a placebo effect, but it helped.

Thank you anon, I appreciate how kind you are, of course I can’t make any promises and even if I did there’s nothing holding me to them, but I will try to relax a little before I do anything, I guess I’m just so tired lately, everyday seems to end with a mental breakdown and I just can’t handle it, I mean it’s built up for so long, not just mental pain but ever since I started restricting calories about 3 years ago I just get sick all the time and I never get my period anymore even though I’ve been eating normally for probably six months now, (I used to dream of having kids one day), and just being so weak in general it feels like there’s no hope for me anymore

Well for one I'm trying to get back into it I just don't really have the time anymore, and also when people are just talking after meetings it's usually more about anime and vidya than cosplay itself. It's really just because I'm retarded and bad at talking to people. I'm also the only new person who just joined this year so everyone else already knows each other and have pre-established groups which makes it harder, but most of the blame us still just me being an antisocial retard.

Sorry to hear that things haven’t been too good for you lately, anon. There was a period in my life where I wanted to end it all too, and even now I still have the list I wrote of who gets my worldly possessions after I’m gone. I know that everyone has individual experiences, but really? It’s not hopeless. Everything might seem bleak at the moment, but life goes on, and things change. And you have the power to make them change too.

Plus think about your burando. Which brand is your favourite? What would you like to see them release one day? Is your best coord perfect yet? Maybe the piece you’re seeking to complete it might show up on Y!auctions tomorrow? Are you following any series? Aren’t you curious what happens at the end?

And well, I’m not trying to convince you that everything will be sunshine and daisies if you persevere. Negative feelings still linger and who knows if I’ll relapse one day. But I was just really happy that I got to see the sun rise the day after I was supposedly going to end it. And was really happy when someone complimented my coord at the next meet. And in retrospect, if I was dead then I wouldn’t have those small moments.

And to the anons saying you’re doing this for attention. Okay, maybe, but so what? I think you’re strong for keeping yourself alive up until today, and I’m proud of you for it. Just hang in there for a little while longer.

Things like knowing that if I died, other people would have to carry out my funeral, deal with my possessions and especially my brand, and take care of all the legal stuff that comes from a death... The person who found me would probably be shocked or traumatised even if they hated me before, some people might even blame themselves. As inconvenient as I can be to the people in my life, I feel too guilty to dump that extra shit on their laps, so that's part of why I try to stay alive. Idk why I'm telling you this haha, just...

Anon, today is the third anniversary of the day I tried to commit suicide and I came to cgl because I was feeling shitty and wanted to browse the board. I felt like I was a piece of shit that could never improve and that there was nothing left worth living for. However, my attempt failed and I have done so many more cool things since then. I've met my favourite band, I got my dream dress, I got out of a toxic relationship. There is so much more out there for you to experience and I want you to know that you are loved and that all sorts of awesome things are out there waiting for you. Sometimes it gets hard but making it through this hard period will make you stronger. It may feel like a lot but as long as you take baby steps, any sort of progress is progress.

It's ok to feel that way, it's common. Things like this take time; maybe months, maybe a year. Acknowledge the feelings and take ownership of them. Next time you speak to your counselor you may want to bring up these concepts. You aren't dependent, you made an active choice to improve your quality of life. For now try let yourself accept the help, therapy is a tool to pull those seams together.

Here, I'll help you out. Things won't go well with him, you'll seek out more professional help and think you'll get better somehow or be able to get over him. You won't. You'll keep contact with them and try to keep your cool but ruin it every other week with the same shit. You'll feel like absolutely ending it all when they take a (much needed) break from talking to you after some heavy emotional offload you throw on him. When he's not talking to you you'll be at your worse, but when he finally does talk to you again and you two sort everything out you'll feel the best you've ever felt in your life.

He'll be seeing other girls, sometimes telling you stories about his sex life because you're too much of a curious bitch and need to know against your own mental health. You'll self harm while reading stories about what he does with other girls and wish it was you. Maybe you'll try getting over it by sleeping around with people you have no interest in, but you'll feel like garbage the morning after and stay in all day crying. You'll develop a kink for being blindfolded and have your ears plugged because it gives you more room to imagine him, but you won't enjoy it when you know it isn't. You'll meet some interesting guys that normally would be who you go for, but ultimately compare them against him every time.

You'll try extra hard to re-invent yourself. You'll crack down extra hard on makeup tutorials, learn better skin and hair care, actually put effort into painting your nails with intricate designs, etc. You'll ask him to go to the movies with you or dinner, and he'll always hesitate to respond.

And after years of this, you'll just accept it. You're obsessed with him and there's no breaking it. So you just deal with it. Or kill yourself, maybe, but the hope of finding someone else you fall just as hard for will (maybe) keep you going.

Don't be like me.

girls have nothing of value to offer in terms of friendship, they are boring people. I mean just listen to the inane shit women talk about, it's enough to make you rip your own ears off. Women are only worthwhile in the context of a relationship.

But I'm sure you know that already, we all know the real reason you're going to heavily female cosplay clubs. Because you're a beta male who is creepily trying to cozy up to females through their hobbies

A dress I really wanted but bought a size smaller than I thought I could fit (motivation) came in over the weekend and fit me, which is a surprise because I haven't gone down to my goal measurements at all, but that's not about to stop me from continuing or having my own idea of what I would prefer to fit.

I don’t know how to make friends.
I’m 22 and I’ve always been a pretty social person, I can talk to almost anybody but I recently moved from Florida to Las Vegas and I don’t know how to meet people.
I’m married so I can’t go to bars, (plus I HATE alcohol) and I’m not in school and I don’t work a regular job (I make my money as an artist)
It’s getting pretty lonely and I just want some friends that have the same interests as me but I don’t know how to go about doing so.. I only leave the house to go to the gym (one minute drive) and go grocery shopping.
I just feel so isolated from the world.

Most lolitas seem to be either very monogamous or asexual, and I was the former until breaking up with a long term boyfriend about a year ago. He was only the 2nd person I’d slept with, but since becoming single I’ve discovered that I really enjoy promiscuity. I’ve managed to make some good friends through what might have been one night stands, maybe because I tend to meet men in settings where we share interests and I’m really only attracted to people who I vibe with intellectually. I’ve had so many awesome experiences with cool guys in interesting settings around the world in the past year. But I guess I’ve spent too much time here in the years before that — I don’t know how to describe my dating status to my monogamous lolita friends, and I don’t know how to talk about the experiences I’ve had in a way that isn’t self aggrandizing or coy. Based on how people react to “polyamory” (which is not how I’d describe myself) or “thots” here I feel like they might feel less connected to me if I talked about this part of my life.

You don't have to talk to your lolita friends about it, you can talk to other friends? I'm not sure why people always expect their lolita friends to want to talk to them about everything. You're not entitled to talk to them about everything just because you're their friend. It's fine to do what you want with your body, but it's not okay to expect people to be okay with hearing about your sexual encounters.

Basically make non lolita friends who want to talk about this. I have lolita friends and vidya friends and I cherish both equally. I know my lolita friends don't wanna talk about vidya and vice versa and I don't make them listen to my banter about it.

If the subject of partners come up do not mention having sex with multiple people. Truthfully no one is serious when they ask . It doesn't matter unless they outright ask if you are single. It's like when someone asks how you're doing? No one wants a tragic backstory . Polygamy is not something I personally find a problematic as another lolita with a boyfriend and husband. I just never mention the relationship I have as it is extremely taboo in the current climate and it is fine because no one gives a shit.

Basically what >>10132958 said. A lot of the hardcore and lifestyle lolitas are either people who dress too abnormally to get laid often with anyone who isn't a fetishist, or someone who really doesn't want lolita associated with immodesty. Plus a lot of lolitas are ex-weebs or fats who want to feel pretty. I'd just talk about it to another normie who understands rather than bring up sex at a meet. They don't give a shit as much.

>> No.10133289

>>10133208
I think that's because lolita comes with a pretty clear cut aesthetic and silhouette that most people look for, and it starts getting more and more difficult to achieve as you reach larger sizes. Speaking as a fatty who has struggled with finding things I like how I look in, with lolita in particular, for example getting a good bell shape to a petticoat doesn't work when you become so large around that the base of the dress is the same width your waistband stretches out to. So it becomes a matter of balancing proportions but even then there is only so much you can do. Bigger footwear to balance out the legs/feet being smaller compared to how big the skirt gets. Then your head might look small if you don't balance your headwear, etc. Normie clothes are a lot more forgiving because there is so much variety that can focus on minimizing unflattering features. With lolita you are just trying to get that certain shape and it's not easy with every body type.

I mean I’m a lolita and I’m monogamous but I don’t shit on promiscuous people. As long as you aren’t breaking anyone’s trust and keeping up healthwise I really don’t give a shit. Plus it’s fun to see a different point of view. People are people. I would be pretty close with them though before knowing what to bring up with them, but I think that applies to anyone. I just really like discussing sex and seeing different takes on it and from what I see not even al lot of normies are into that.

It's because of the lack of silhouette. I mean also it's really not abhorrent to think obesity is unattractive. That's like a normal human biological response.

>> No.10133321

>>10133208
I think silhouette is a big part of it too, I particularly notice it in classic. Some sweet brands are more forgiving but as soon as bigger girls try and squeeze into MM or VM you can tell that it's just not made for that body type and it doesn't look good. When someone is so big that it's their dominating feature (the first thing you notice when you look at them rather than their hair,coord, etc.) it becomes ita by default in my opinion.

I remember when VM announced they were shutting and all the cunts on LU were complaining that they didn't do enough catering to bigger sizes because the pieces with 100+ bust measurement didn't make them look the same as the thin models with the pretty A line skirts that flare out at the waist and look actually flattering. Of course it's not going to look the same, when the waist is the biggest part of your body it's going to look bad, no matter how well it's coorded or what you do to balance it out you're never going to get that silhouette.

It's the same as when really tall girls wear dresses that don't even hit mid thigh. It looks weird and wrong, like someone who those clothes were clearly not cut to fit is trying to wear them. Because lolita is so specific it's glaringly obvious when the silhouette is bad, even when it looks fine by normie standards. At least if you're smaller you can alter things or just have a longer skirt but bigger body types are just really hard to achieve the shape and often just look bad to the eye even if they otherwise look fine in non lolita clothing.

>> No.10133328

>>10133321

Inb4 someone cries "fat shaming", the same goes for tall and short girls too. You just can't stuff your body into clothing that does not fit you and expect to look good. But most of them would rather wear burando to fit in and stretch the shirring to its physical limit than actually try to look good in the fashion.

I genuinely feel like bigger people would have a better time learning how to sew and make their own dresses rather than trying to get a brand or store to cater to them in sizing. A brand will most likely not consider the silhouette, they’re just trying to make sure it just fits.

lolita here who loves sex, obviously as two very separate things that I enjoy.
I was in a long term relationship with little sexual payoff, and I felt so ugly all the time. He was my first boyfriend and the first person I'd slept with. I loved him dearly and we are still friends, but after that relationship I slept with two more people (briefly dating one of them) and I had never felt more confident. Im in a long term relationship now, but I love hearing about what others are doing (not in a voyeuristic way)and sharing my experiences whether they are recent or not because when I was having sex all my friends were virgins and often made me feel like shit because I had a boyfriend or a fling. And not one of them is a lolita, they just are like that.

I'm a lolita who participates in the larp thread now and then. The larp thread is its own microculture within the larger board, it's kinda cute. It doesn't really overlap with the cosplayers or lolitas that often (other than Gropey when he's around) so it makes sense that it would develop its own personalities and in-jokes. Don't worry about understanding everything, if you're having fun and not being annoying or newfaggy enough to get called out then you're doing fine.

That's too bad anon. But on days like these, scratch your beard and enjoy your own body as best you can. It's a good starting point to like who you are without clothes, which you obviously do. Other's in your situation might take the sissy pill, or worse end up chiming in to the trans echo-chamber. You seem right in the head, and I applaud that.

My suggestion might be a bit controversial around here, but you could potentially aim to be a conlita unless your cosplay plans cover up all the event days. If you plan one really specific coord, splurge and buy everything you need, you'd probably make a great brolita at a con you'd shave for either way. It's also a way to test the waters. If wearing a petticoat makes your manly fashion sense weak in the knees, maybe it's worth shaving more often. If not you'll basically have another costume, albeit quite expensive, to enjoy for another con if you feel like it.

Or just grit your teeth and don't take the plunge. Either way I wish you the best of luck!

Until we're out of the dark about our bodies, likes/dislikes, and how to successfully reach orgasm when wanted, it's important for ladies to share. so many of my friends growing up dealt with so much shame and imposed ignorance regarding their bodies.

I sincerely hope you can make good memories and have only good experiences moving forward!
If you haven't already, take some time to find where all of your boundaries lie and what your "hard no's" are, so that you have a solid foundation to help you communicate before and during steamy situations.

I personally just got over a severe kissing aversion I developed because my first kiss was a full-on open-mouthed surprise abomination that I did not consent to. I was hanging out with my crush and turned my head and suddenly he descended upon me and it was...not okay.
I had to look away from kissing scenes in movies because I'd have this visceral cringe reaction. 10 years later, I'm a lot more comfortable with kissing and I've gained a lot more experience maintaining my boundaries and keeping myself as safe as possible.

You are valuable and determined! Best of luck to you, anon. you deserve a healthy sex life.

Personally I didn't enjoy VLR at all, it felt like there was a lot less substance to it than 999. The characters felt shallower, there was too much going on with the plot for the length of the game, and each route felt abruptly short due to cramming in like 10 pretty much required endings vs 999's 5 endings. I feel like it would have been a great game if it had been more focused. By the time I was finishing it up I wasn't even curious how the plot wrapped up, I just wanted to be done with it. But, I enjoyed 999 mostly for the mystery and horror aspects and I'm a big reader, so you may like VLR more than I did.

I did enjoy ZTD for the novelty factor, but I probably wouldn't replay it. 999, on the other hand, is one of my top 5 games.

I'm just feeling a little hurt and jealous because she knew I was planning to cosplay that same character to the same convention, in the same outfit, and mine won't look as professional. She knew I was planning it and that's why she didn't tell me. She needs advice now on wigs and such and I just feel a little sad. I don't want to tell her this because I know it's immature and stupid to be sad about it, and I don't want to drag her down, but I just feel like there's no point in trying to make my own now.

I hate to break it to you anon, but that's not something a friend would do. Maybe you should rethink your relationship, or at least cease to tell her any future plans in case she makes a habit of this.

Points to you because you went to the effort of making the outfit yourself (or at least planned to). Choosing to invest so much time into a costume is a testament to your love of that character. Don't change on account of her stupid actions, take your cosplay and rock it!

If I know people I know have done a costume before that I then decide to do or if it's a commonly done one which just blends into the masses I look at what people have done before me, pick it apart and find the things they did that I don't like. I also take note of the things I do like and incorporate them if possible.
Also you can add gimmicks! If they have a prop or a quriky element, go ham and use them to get the upper hand and make you stand out.

A former friend is being a Bitter Betty and is going around telling people I stopped being friends with her because she quit lolita when really it's because I wouldn't quit with her. She even lectured me to not to even bring up the fashion anymore in front of her. She gets pissed of when I organize something lolita related because she thinks she is being excluded even though she is absolutely welcome without lolita. And she doesn't even want to come when I try to meet up outside of lolita. I stopped being friends with her because clearly the kind of friendship she wants us to have would mean I'd have to give up my hobby and everything related including friends just so I can see her every blue moon without guarantee she will stop being shitty to me..

You don't have to fake a personality or force any behavior while wearing lolita since it's a fashion, not a costume, but it does depend on what you otherwise mean by "aggressive side". If you're not unnecessarily loud in public and know how to sit in a dress, there should be no issue.

Thank you guys for the support.... I felt stupid being so sad about it. I genuinely feel like she has no idea why this would be kind of a shitty thing to do. She's never tried to one-up me before so I don't really know why she chose to do it on my favorite character out of one of my favorite series. I've even been practicing being in-character and she knew that... I dunno. Ugh. I decided I'll just use the materials I gathered to be a different character that would complement her cosplay; at least we wouldn't look so silly at the con. Making the cosplay I wanted and trying to make it good or better than hers just feels even more petty somehow even if it was my original plan. Oh well. Just won't tell anyone my cosplans anymore lol

If she didn't know that it was a shitty thing to do, she would have told you about her costume when it came up. That she hid it means she knew this was not right but did it anyway... why? This cosplay is obviously important to you, why choose this of all the cosplays in the world, at that exact time she knows you pour your soul into yours?

I don't know what you are otherwise like together, but thinking you are in the wrong for being upset about your supposed friend being a cunt to you, thinking you're petty for wanting to do have at least a little bit revenge, her thinking so lowly of you that she thinks she can steal your cosplay, throw more money at it to one up you, and then STILL ask you for help makes me wonder whether your relationship isn't generally toxic. I hope she doesn't use you as a punching bag/doormat/servant while your self worth drops both because people tend to adjust their self image according to how people treat them and because you maybe realize that you *allow* her to treat you like this and think lowly of yourself because of that.

I don’t have an aversion to intimacy now, but I do feel anxious and uncomfortable when I see those types of scenes in movies (like I literally can’t watch anything with teenagers in it because of that). i also have had a lot of people laugh upon hearing about my experience and tell me to “get over it”, especially the day after it happened.. you are not a weak person at all, and I’m glad we can relate. if you haven’t talked to anyone about this yet I really hope you do. in the mean time, focus on your hobbies and getting dolled up to keep you distracted and remind you that you’re a strong, wonderful person who deserves to be surrounded by pleasant things that you want. best regards.
