/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

honestly id do black or red shoes bec gold looks unfitting with the rest of the red and black.

I'd get rid of the wrist cuffs and change the shoes to red or black. If you wanted to change the bag, there's a super cute rabbit-hat bag on Lolita Wardrobe.

>>10194466
Ditch the tights for something that matches better. I agree that red or black shoes would be better

>>10194566
I think the original tights look better, these look super cheap. Agree with black shoes though. Or maybe red ones.

>>10194466
don't shoehorn gold shoes. I'd add maybe a bracelet, but wristcuffs don't work here.

>>10194725
>>10194566
Does it make a difference that the buttons on the cuffs are gold card suits?
I did plan on black shoes I just forgot to put them in the image, the gold ones were just on the tights model. The edges of the cards in the print are gold trimmed and the cards are slightly off white, not perfect white.

>>10194725
The gold shoes being shoehorned might just be a difference of opinion on this one. If you see the print irl, it has gold in it.

>>10194725
Please return yourself to 2016

>>10194466
Weird nitpick, but I don’t think think you’re going to like the way those necklaces sit on that neckline. I would wear a choker or a shirt necklace if the ties can be removed. Otherwise I would just go without and maybe pick up a red ring

>>10195605
short*

Figured I’d ask since I’ve been struggling a little too, just recently picked this up and figuring out how I want to go about it. The only thing I’m solid on is doing a red blouse, but I’m not positive on what color shoe to go for. I’m thinking red as well since I’m leaning towards black/gold tights but I haven’t found any shoes that aren’t ridiculously sweet.

>>10195637
If you want black/gold tights and a red blouse then yes, I would get red shoes. Alternatively, a black blouse and shoes with red accessories are would work.

Not my image, but I bought this dress on a whim and don't know what the hell to do with it. I'm 99% Angelic Pretty and I noticed none of my AP pinks match. Would a white blouse be appropriate?

>>10195991
Oops, sage.
It's Sleeping Beauty Rose by BTSSB and its missing the rose in the middle (bought second hand)

>>10195991
Any type of white should be fine. I don’t own this, but based on the golds I would personally go with an ivory blouse. However, if it’s a blue toned pink I’d definitely do white.

>>10195637
My friend has paired it with her Aatp 'Cabriole Legs Ribbon Shoes' and red boots. Both looked good with the dress

>>10195637
use any black/gold chandelier tights (because meaning to the story)
I poorly shooped the black rose in the bonnet to red.
possibly use a normal sleeve beige blouse and add a nice long sleeve black bolero

From Feels thread-
I let my 14 and 17 year old sisters-in-law use my Amazon Prime
I found the 4 items on the left in my wish list, which I know I didn't put there, so one of them, having seen me wear lolita often, is thinking about their babby's first coord.
On the right I've tweaked it and added some options.
What would you suggest differently?

>>10201066
Your sisters have good taste, although shopping for lolita on amazon is a god-awful idea. I like most of what you put together, but the bjd tights are a little tacky. I would just go with some plain crochet tights in the same color as the blouse for future versatility.

>>10201066
please don't buy lolita from amazon. it's like buying from milannoo

>>10201092
>>10201088


Not sure you're aware It's a taobao reseller, they are now on amazon too, just with more mark-up, I've already found the same dress for her cheaper direct from taobao with a ss (but it's also on english reseller sites too). I'm a daily lolita, yeah i know, I'm not dumb.

Those aren't bjd. it's a frame pattern on the faux lace print far below the knee. (the alt pair to the right of those are creme hallow lace tights)

>>10201103
>zooms in astronomically
K, you’re right. Still don’t think the bow tights are a good investment, and the tights on the right are what I was talking about. I would go with those.

>>10201107
future versatility is a good point

>>10201113
Along those lines, while the purse makes it feel “special,” it might be smart to buy something like a gold heart purse that can be used in the future. I think it’s lovely and makes the look really shine, so it’s still a great choice. I’m just not sure how much use it will be for future outfits. I’d decide if you want to jumpstart her wardrobe or buy her a first coord. Or both.

Can I get some ideas to coord this JSK besides the classic black blouse x black tights and green/black shoes?

Thanks!

>>10201174
Try with wine blouse and stockings and black shoes

>>10201144
I might gift her the purse. She chose this on her own without even mentioning it to me, so maybe sea prints speak to her. That actually gives me a better idea of who it is now that I'm more awake.

>>10201218
Ohhhhh wine blouse might be a good shot! Thanks anon, I'll try it out!

I recently got aqua princess in this cut and color with the matching choker. Im absolutely in love with it, but I'd love to hear some ideas for how to coord it. I have mint shoes, a pink blouse to wear under and I just ordered a pink peignoir to possibly wear over the dress without a blouse. I have a general idea of how to coord it, I'd just love some extra ideas, its definitely the most 'princessy' dress I own and I'm still pretty new so I'm open to any suggestions.

>>10201174
Did a quick mock-up of something you can do. White blouse with some frill at the top to break up the split block of black. Wine accents pulled out of the skirt.

>>10201259
solid*

>>10201252
t i a r a

>>10201259
That's awesome, anon! Now I'll have to buy a blouse like this, this will look great! Thanks a lot!

>>10201739
>>10201252
Mermaid princess??

>>10195991
I’m in love with this dress, anon.

>>10201739
>>10201788
Thank you kind anons! I really love the mermaid princess vibe so much. Would you be able to link me the wig or just the shop name? I'm definitely saving this for inspiration!

>>10202217
I saved it a million years ago but I believe it’s gothic lolita wigs. The gyaru thread might be able to help you find hime wigs these days!

>>10201788
This gives off a low key gyaru feel and I’m honestly living for it

>>10202476
Oh that was entirely intentional ;)

so this is what I got, but my hair still looks nearly black. Is there a proper way to use these, or do I just need to slather on half the container?

>>10202948
u lost?

>>10202949
maybe. Lost with my hair, certainly.

>>10201259
This kind of looks like Herajika's coord

>>10203189
I don’t know who that is so it was not intentional

>>10201066
honestly i love the tweaks on the right but i would keep the gold shell bag, gold shoes, and maybe some kind of gold shirt necklace/choker featuring a seashell plus a pearl, and maybe some dark blue/white/sade blue hair accessories along with pearls!! would be adorable. and perhaps a medium brown wig, in pigtails or braids, pigtails being with pearly hair ties and with the colored tiny bows on the top of the head arranged which ever way is pleasing. braids for pearls to be stuck in, maybe a seahorse brooch in the hair that is gold? and tiny blue and saxe ribbon bows arranged on the braids

>>10201066
forgot to add that the tights look perfect desu

>>10201794
i demand to know where the fuck that choker is from because i need it in my life badly

>>10203599
okay, and I don’t mean to be rude, but if you can’t ask on a norwegian moose trapping board where can you? do you wear lolita? because what you described is very elaborate, which is fine, but I personally wouldn’t recommend a kid start out going in to that much detail, or buying that many items she will only wear once. or do you go to meetups a bunch so you have a while to prepare? idk, I just see people make suggestions like this sometimes and I’m trying to understand them.

>>10203603
It’s baby. Go nuts, I wear it with everything

>>10203606
nayrt but yes, reads as a lolita at heart who spends all their time making coord collages that theyll never wear, and puts a colored petticoat on said collage...

What would be good tights for this? I'm really new to lolita (just been admiring moitie for years now) sorry ahead of time. Mainly just going for very goth/gothic since that's mainly what I wear in general.

>>10202235
cyperous gyaru wigs but they don't do many blondes anymore. Better off to stack two wigs when you find colours you like

>>10203856
A good rule of thumb is to match your legwear/tights to the color of your blouse. In your case I would change the black ribbon on the shoes to a navy color so it's balanced.

tried to make a chocolate and cherries theme. Reasoning: hansel and gretel is a german folktale, what reminds me of germany? Ah yes, german black forest cake. This is very much shoe-horned in and vague, but I liked the fact that I needed to make my own accessories. Things photoshopped: cherries headband under the Musee Du Chocolat half bonnet, cherry brooch on the blouse, and finally the shoes will be hand-painted and i will attach a handmade bracelet onto them.

The dress is the Musee du Chocolat low waist JSK in brown by Angelic Pretty.

>>10204103
I feel like this is missing red accents in the middle. Swapping out the purse for one with red in it or maybe a cherry pin on the bow on the waistline might help. Really like your blouse of choice, though.

>>10204118
Double posting, sorry, also I'd probably nix the OTKs. The dress is busy and you're adding an extra theme with the cherries, so the OTKs are confusing my eyes. I'd love it with plain ivory socks of any length.

>>10203856
where is that blouse from anon? it is a mighty need.

>>10204103

So, as today's debbie downer, I'm just here to warn you red and brown is often associated with blood and poop... the coord's cute, but I figure better you realise what you gotta avoid looking like.

Also, if it's Hansel and Gretel I'd say a better dress is the Chocolate Fascinate series, though it doesn't really do cherries in chocolate.

>>10204090
Thanks for the tip anon!
>>10204123
Your gift on taobao, I got it from a re seller though.

>>10204127
>red and brown is often associated with blood and poop
are you okay, anon?

>>10204121
I do have some meta ankle length socks I could do instead. Thanks for the crit. I will see if any of my red bags are loliable since this coord is for Saturday.

>>10204127
Unfortunately I had to think of of theme that fit my current closet instead of shopping for a new main piece this time around. Just didn't have the time. I figured chocolate was easy to shoe-horn in as part of some kind of fairytale. Lol.

>>10204127
I’m sorry but wtf

>>10201174
There's a bunch of colors in the print that you could experiment with. Ivory for sure, but also dark green and even that pop of color with the man's coat (not sure if it's more red, wine or orange-y). The plain bodice gives you options for layering over as well, like the blouse pictured. You could play with belts in ivory (to contrast) or in a detailed black (to add texture) or boleros/cardigans for cooler times of year. Gold could be nice for a more OTT look, and you can pick up on the motifs of letters, writing and flowers with accessories and/or tights.

>>10204103
Honestly if you want to make it more obvious, nix the cherries and make a chocolate house bag or something. The cherries are kinda busy and getting lost in an already busy print.

>>10204193
>>10204224

It's from years of lurking the ita threads.

Look, I'm not OP's mom, all I wanted was to mention that I've seen a lot of red x brown trashed that way, and then they can decide what they want to do after that. That's all, ok? No hard feelings.

>>10204218

In all honesty you could probably still do Hansel and Gretel, I don't think it required berries. Maybe add a witch hat and be the witch of the chocolate cottage instead. I had very little background to go on when I suggested an alternative main piece, other than Hansel and Gretel being mentioned in your post.

>>10204230
>the ita thread
people will reach for anything to have something to say

>>10204235

It's multiple times, sorry to say. There's a specific Bodyline chocoberries print in red that always gets it, because it seems obvious to people to pair it with even more red and brown, but I've also seen it happen to full burando coords that's just solid brown and red.

Anyways, I've said the warning I meant to say and I feel like I'm gonna end up derailing the thread, so that's that from me.

>>10204228
This is a good idea, I will go all out on the Chocolate theme then.

>>10204090
I've seen you spouting this bs everywhere, no it isn't a good rule of thumb, use this for exaple, black blouse black tights black shoes. See, it doesn't always works, it ends up boring or too heavy. I match blouse to shoes, or shoes and purse, shoes to bow, tights match lightest color in dress. Yes make sure each item matches at least one other thing, but stfu with your boring bland advice.

>>10204259
>black blouse black tights black shoes
Nayrt, but this is a very old-school coording style and it can look very elegant. You match blouse, purse, socks & shoes to the lace on your dress and your hair accessory to your dress. Modern coording, like how you described, looks different but not necessarily better. Also, matching blouse to legwear works 90% of the time and IS a good rule of thumb. It’s easily balanced and can accommodate for oddly colored shoes.

>>10204259
God this just reeks of conlita

>>10204259
>I've seen you spouting this bs everywhere
>Thinking just one person says this
Wtf, this is basic coord advice

>>10204263
You reek of boring irrelevance telling someone to have the only color in their whole coord be their Jsk skirt which is not old school style at all. Sincerely, a daily lolita with more life in one coord than your whole closet.

>>10204267
Holy shit, just be okay with being wrong. What anon described is old school.

>>10204259
I like that coording style too, just wanted to give basic advice that works for everyone. Not everyone has every shade of blouse/otk to match to their purse or random colors on their dress. But most people do have solid colored blouses in common colors, and solid colored tights are easy to get anywhere. If your goal is to make your first coord simple is better to start with.

>>10204269
Follow the chain up
The dress it was advice to is not oldschool, does not have fine details and they will look heavy and boring.

>>10204267
No one’s saying you can’t dress the way you described, just that matching blouse to leg wear is an incredibly common way to coordinate and is good advice for new lolitas. Get your bloomers out of your ass.

>>10204272
One anon suggested adding a navy ribbon to the shoes, which would balance it just fine. The only thing I would suggest is maybe adding a bit of navy to the hair accessory to balance it out.

just copped this, any ideas? was thinking of a red x black OR red x white casual-ish coord.

>>10204127
wow. i associate red and brown with blood and shit too... huh. Ita thread brainwashing, maybe.

>>10204383
Red x black, definitely. I love this sort of smart, simple tartan jacket with a simple black velvet old-school skirt but that's my bias.

>>10194466
Honestly, don't wear bodyline, is tacky af

>>10204383
You could try doubling up on the tartan? Here's some inspiration for you

>>10206059
This is a cardigan but I think you could style it similarly.

Got eat a dick brandwhore conlita, there are reasons to wear it. As a daily lolita there are times and places that are more appropriate to not wear my nicest brand.
Your attitude is tacky.

No, there really isn’t. Poorfag

>>10204642
I'm always wondering wtf is wrong with y'alls bowels to associate those two in the first place. It ain't normal

Stuck on this. May be able to grab the matching headbow at least but so far I'm thinking lavender blouse, yellow cardigan, the toy parade socks by AP if they turn out to match once the dress arrives, and lavender tea parties. I'd love to incorporate more pinks as well and get a good balance of all these colors so I'm thinking about making a cute rosette. I'm mostly stuck on the blueish color as I can't quite tell if it's sax or mint cuz I'm clearly colorblind. Also stuck on bags and I don't like the bag from this series.

>>10204642
not brainwashing! I felt like this before I knew about lolita.

>>10206059
I can't stop laughing at the shopped meat.

I just got the le jardín des anges jsk in lavender and I’m thinking of pairing it with white lace tights and a flowy lacey blouse but I’m worried wearing it with white shoes will be too much, but wearing pastel shoes might ruin the classic aesthetic, any suggestions?

>>10209892
I think I’m going with this bonnet but I’ve seen it look cute with rectangle head pieces and flower crowns too

>>10201259
Where's that blouse from? I can't recognize the frame

>>10211369
Juliette et Justine Spectre de Cristal Rose Blouse

Does anyone have a recommendation for a blouse/neckline style that is more suitable for sweeter military styled main pieces, but at the same time, works for someone with a shorter neck / larger cup size?

Generally it's recommended to wear high collars. But those look awful on me. I prefer lower necklines or peter pan collars as they're in general, more flattering.

>>10211920
Tried a square neck?

>>10211920
I think AATP blouses would match your style, maybe one like this?

Would this op look good with pink striped socks (meta)?

What do you think bout this style of socks in sweet lolita?

>>10214852
too casual imo

>>10214859
so... that's a maybe with a super casual coord like skirt and cutsew top?

>>10214890
it would be fine in a casual coord

>>10214852
I like these, good for summer coords, plus they’re cheap, but it kinda bugs me when I see them paired with a really nice dress like at the AP fashion show

>>10214852
Depends on the dress and the styling. It could be cute or awful, but that’s less to do with the socks and the entire category of sweet lolita and more the dissonance between these socks and more formal dresses.

>>10213134
It might get a bit busy, are you thinking narrow or wide stripes? I prefer the look of plain socks with a berry motif at the top.

>>10209892
This might be where a gold or silver shoe works well, especially if you have a matching bag.

>>10206905
Sax vs mint can be a bitch and a half to match. I don't think adding all the pastel colours from the print to the coord sounds like a great idea unless you have (for example) socks or a hair accessory that has all of the colours in it - trying to do blocks of sax, pink, yellow and lavender in a single outfit is going to be very hard to balance.

Could I get a few blouse/ cutsew ideas for the red strawberry Annette skirt? Thank you

Looking for ideas for coords for this that are a bit more goth style perhaps, but I'm down for any coord ideas for this JSK.

Looking for coord ideas

I'm trying to put together my first OTT coordinate and... How much is enough?

I've maxed out my poof, chosen an interesting print, flattered the cut, put on enough things on my head to feel ridiculous, tried to tie some interest to my neck and- no, no matter what I add it just seems like it makes another part of my outfit bare by comparison. Where is the balance when you're over the top?

Also be honest with me gulls, is the mismatched kneesock trend a dead meme?

>>10220529

I'm totally stuck here. Not sure what to do legwear wise, or which kind/color of shoes to wear. Would it be appropriate to use polka-dot tights, to match the cardigan?

I am also trying to decide between mint tea parties or some kind of brown oxford (or maybe something that's very classically styled with a small heel.)

Thanks in advance for any help!

>>10226163
honestly the bright mint cardigan seems really out of place next to the more muted colors of the dress, at least on my monitor. maybe it looks better in person but to me it clashes horribly.
i'd go for an oxford or another more classic styled shoe in a brown that matches the bag and the biscuits on the print. mint tea parties would be too sugary sweet and probably too different of a shade next to the print.

>>10225875
It's hard to get an idea of your coord without seeing pictures of it. A gothic OTT outfit will look very different to a classic or sweet or even ero coord. So I'm not sure what to tell you without seeing photos.

But if you're going for sweet, mismatched kneesocks are a dead meme, but they /can/ work. Just depends what your coord is like.

>>10226399
Thanks for your advice! I'm on that awkward edge where I'm too sweet to be classic but too into navy blue to ring the sweet bells.

I did lay out my coord to take a photo but I think I answered my own questions. The floordinate looks good. Without the mismatched sock meme it looks more balanced, and it's not like I have time to get more accessories before the tea party either way. Babby's first ott will do for now. In time I will probably have a blast when I revisit this coord for improvements.

Coord ideas for my new dress. Pictured with shoe option I already own, they are real leather and very comfy. I'm sweet trash, I don't 100% know how to do this classy stuff. Was thinking about an off white, 3 strand pear choker for necklace? I own off white IW wristcuffs, I just don't have a picture of them. Mostly unsure what to put on my legs or if these shoes are ok?

>>10226955

Add:
- white legwear, if you can't find something with pink/beige accents, look into getting lace tights
- white blouse and/or brown cardigan (doesn't need to match your shoes)
- brown handbag (doesn't need to match your shoes

As someone who does all 3 substyles, you can pretty much use the same process as you do with sweet and use them to coord anything else, really. It's not like AP doesn't have their share of white/ivory dresses and brown chocolate things. The colour balance is the more important thing, and that's universal across different styles.

re: going blouseless (since you didn't include one in this collage), I'd think really hard hard about it, maybe consider doing a trial run. A bonnet is usually stiff, formal and somewhat overdressed, even for lolita. So I'd go with dressing up the rest of the outfit, with a nice lacey blouse or a frilly, girly cardigan to match the bonnet to keep it consistent.

You need legwear for those shoes. Something about closed toe, the shape of the shoes, suggests that they look more "complete" if worn with socks.

A brown bag together with these brown shoes will echo off each other and make it look like they belong together on that outfit, if you're not happy with that you can also add a brown brooch, brown cardigan to further echo the colour. Just make sure the undertones aren't clashing, like don't put do a greyish brown with yellowish brown shoes.

>>10226163

This is cute for otome.

Do not match the tights to the cardigan, it really is loud. I'd advocate letting the loud cardigan be the one loud focus point and then everything else you add be less loud. If you're really stumped you could just go for white socks, but there's probably something with brown/blue stripes that you can find.

Then go with brown shoes. Some people might be able to pull off mint tea parties, brown shoes are certainly the safer option.

>>10227064
Good to know

Oh I didn't mean to imply I'd be blouseless. I typoed. I meant "please give me coording ideas. The shoes are the only thing I was sure about and open to blouse recommendations.
Found some meta antique white tights to go with so I priced together a little more of a rough idea. Blouse is long sleeve with big poofs before the long flat cuffs.

>>10227093

You're on the right track with the tights, but I'd just point out be careful with the little accent colours -- the purple/lavender is just popping enough that it might clash because the dress is very obviously red/pink accents with green rather than purple with beige.

The necklace will be lost with that neckline, either you layer it under the collar and no one can see it, or you layer it over and it sits funny while shifting around. If you're set on the necklace, go for a high/stand collar blouse, or go for a wide collar so that the pearl choker can be in full view.

The bag and shoes echo better if they perfectly match colours. Otherwise, throw on a few more brown things (like ditch the blouse and go for a brown cardi) so that the coord skews more towards "earth tone coord with white" rather than "white coord with two different brown", if that makes sense.

>>10227145
Added some tweaks, is it looking better?

The socks don't have blue so much as it's a very crisp white on all the champagne background, i hope the detail shot of them helps and that they don't look tinted blue/lavish in person. I kinda hate very whitish socks even white hollow lace ones.

>>10227180

Well now everything skews ivory/beige and the blouse looks too white. I'd switch to an ivory blouse if the socks will be ivory as well.

I'm not convinced on the socks, but they do often look different when worn due to the material. Once you get them in hand you'll be able to judge if it looks okay.

Other than that, it looks pretty much better.

I'm looking for examples of highwaist or corset skirts coorded with medium high or low neckline blouses. Most coords I have seen over time seem to include high neckline blouses, which are rather unflattering on me. Color or style doesn't matter, just should include pieces with mentioned cuts for reference.

I'm planning my first coord and I'm kind of struggling. Is black hair going to be good with this red sweets coord? I really dislike wigs. Not for any particular reason, i just think they're annoying to put on and can get sweaty.

As of the moment i think the bag and the madoka shoes look out of place. I'm open to any advice.

>>10226807
Definitely try it on before the tea party, even if you have no time to make accessories. I'm glad I was able to help!

>>10228772
As long as it's styled well, natural hair is fine in lolita.

>>10228772
i would definitely switch up the shoes, tea patties would so cute. The bag and wrist cuffs im iffy on; the wrist cuffs ribbon seems dark red? and not sure on the bag, u could try it

>>10228772
I think the shoes will really pop, but that purse looks sad compared to everything else. Do you have any other red or white bags already?

>>10228819
Natural hair is BEST for lolita, desu. I have yet to see someone successfully pull off a wig, especially if they're a beginner. If you wear wigs please for the love of god, style and cut them to flatter your face.

>>10229017
I do agree with this! I just used the word "fine" to mean that she doesn't have to wear a wig.

>>10229014
Not really. The closest color i have is pink, and neither of them really fit. One has an angel motif and the other a cat face. I'm not in a hurry though, i can get a good purse later on. I'll keep looking around for a good purse.

>>10228942
Looking at the wrist cuffs now yeah, they look kind of off. I kinda put them in last minute... I'll do some looking for some actually good strawberry wrist cuffs. I can do some thinking about the shoes, i have time.

>>10229017
Thank god. I was more worried about the black on red contrast but i think it'll be okay.

>>10228772
These are avvalible on AP USA right now

>>10228772
>>10229155
Forgive me if I'm wrong but there is a tad of pink in the print like the spoons and some of the smaller ribbons around the circle.

So in order left to right
First purse is available on storeenvy it's diamond honey
Second is on pacemaker, though I think a red or white heart bag could serve you better in the long run because you'd be able to use it with many more coords, they're always acceptable. Heart shape is generic and thus many brands make them and you can find them all over the play e if you take that route.
Third is on my-lolita-dress(Taobao reseller so you might be able to get it cheaper with a shopping service from the original taobao store)

>>10229177
My phone corrected lacemarket to pacemaker. Sorry.

>>10229155
Black hair looks amazing with red clothing. Nothing to worry about.

>>10229155
If you’re not sure about the wrist cuffs, maybe consider skipping them altogether?
They’re not a must for a coord and I think the blouse would look cute enough on its own.

what kind of wig would go best with this dress? I almost always go without wigs but I think this dress shape makes my bob length natural hair look weird

>>10229817
I'd go with something like pic related

>>10229474
Really? For the longest time i thought they were essential.
>>10229177
Sounds good, I'll get myself a heart bag then.

>>10228772
>madoka magica cosplay shoes
what the fuck anon

>>10229988
They're pretty desu but i have other shoes

>>10228727
I saw a lot of these just googling "atelier pierrot coord"

>>10228772
please do not wear literal madoka cosplay shoes for the love of god

>>10230708
give an alternative you autistic fuck

>>10228727
Look through Atelier Pierrot's instagram and shop blogs.

Can not figure out what kind of blouse looks decent with this????? dont want to wear it with bare arms showing..... doesnt look balanced

>>10231910

I think it will look fine, but if you insist, probably go with something off white and with a high neck, with minimal detail around the bodice area. I like using Axes Femme cutsews under it because it doesn't create too much bulk but has nice detailing nonetheless, and a bit whiter than pic related.

>>10231910
maybe like one of those atelier pierrot princess sleeve blouses that everyone and their dog has?

>>10230718
the most obvious choice: normal red tea parties

>>10231910
You could also look for nice long gloves.

>>10231910
You could try adding a short white blouse underneath that has lacing peaking out. You might be getting thrown off by the pink having no white on the sleeves.

I think as long as you have some wrist accessories and you don't leave your neck/chest bare, it will look balanced.

Pic related.

How would you coordinate this? I feel that an ivory or white blouse would not work well with the blue but I can't think of any alternatives. Shoes would be another headache as well. Probably black?

>>10238865

For Classic, the typical basic bitch fallback coord is ivory blouse with brown shoes.

So ivory blouse and legwear (I'd be careful about mixing white and ivory, make sure you can balance them if you do), with brown shoes, brown bag. For classic you can worry less about matching your browns/other colour. For hair accessory you could go back to a VM corsage, or get your own (high quality) flower headpiece that goes with the skirt, or use a brown or ivory ribbon. For jewellery, it's hard to go wrong with pearls (but make sure they aren't tiny or else they'll simply be lost amidst the frills).

Actually if you want to get creative I think a blush blouse would also go nicely. Alternatively, a coord with a navy bolero would also look nice. You could even do white blouse with navy shoes/bag/accessories (though it's higher contrast than ivory, so harder to pull off). A grey blouse that brings out the lace accented with either navy or lavender could also work.

There's a lot of ways you could coord a versatile skirt like this, but if you're really lost and need to build a wardrobe from scratch anyway, you'll at least be able to re-wear the ivory and brown things with other dresses as it's pretty much staple classic lolita so that's the better option.

>>10238865
I really like navy and sax together so that would be the way I'd go, there are a few printed tights out there that mix lighter and darker blues which would help with the overall balance. Navy blouse/mixed navy and sax blue hair flowers/sax bag/mixed navy and sax tights/navy shoes.

>>10229987
Thinking that wristcuffs are essential is the funniest thing to me. You can definitely skip them if your blouse looks alright without them.

Kind of stuck on what headwear to coord with this. My gut reaction is a smaller bonnet, and I'm not sure why that is when I've never worn them and am not usually into them. The rest of the coord is pretty par the course, white blouse and stockings, navy shoes. Any thoughts?

>>10240675
Round headdress,

>>10240675

Whatever matches the print or your outfit, really.
- black headbow (if your own hair isn't black, otherwise it does tend to blend in, t. black-haired girl)
- gold
- a nice hat
- crown
- madonna crown (if you're going OTT. At least this is the right print for a madonna crown for once)

If you're really at a loss, make up the rest of the outfit first and the headwear will generally suggest itself.

Completely stuck on this one. I've never worn an OP before, how the hell do I coordinate this? I want to wear it to an AP tea party so I'd love something big and OTT-y.

I'm choosing which socks I should wear with open boots that come up to a few inches below my knees. What length socks would look best? Would patterned socks look bad if they're partially covered by the straps? The boots are similar to pic related.

HARD MODE
Make an outfit for this that isn't ass

DEATH MARCH
Don't photoshop any parts out

I'm going to be honest. I don't know much about jfashion, just the fact my girlfriend loves it and some brands.
I've bought my girlfriend tickets for disney and its going to be hot, and I'd like to buy her an entire outfit (even new shoes) to wear for the day.
so key points
>its going to be hot
>it needs to be comfortable
I appreciate this thread and anyone that helps

>>10204383
More tartan with this or solid red jsk. You can either go with the red+white or red+black combo.

>>10240991
Sorry anon but you can’t OTTfy this dress. I suggest you go with the more elegant classic route with a hat, tights and boots. Props if you have a suitcase as well.

>>10244201
Just give her the money to buy something herself.

>>10242199
That's literally BTSSB...?

>>10244230
that ruins the fun of opening a box to find a full outfit waiting for her with tickets to disney inside

>>10244201
We need more details - her taste, what brands she likes, a price range, her sizing.

>>10244201

Here:

https://item.rakuten.co.jp/secrethoney/c/0000000513/

Legit from Japan. Use google chrome to navigate the site and translate. Use a shopping service like fromjapan or Japonica to buy.

The dresses only come in one size, so check her measurements. If you need something bigger I'd suggest a T-shirt from American Disney store.


And this shit:

>likes jfash

There's like half a dozen different jfash styles, each with their own look and each style has different substyles. Learn her favorite brand and buy her shit from that brand ya dumbass. Stop pestering strangers on the internet to give advice based on useless non-info. You might as well have said she likes breathing and ask us to chose her favorite rug.

>>10244263
She dresses like a southern woman with lots of cardigans and scarfs. Shes fond of otome and Mori. Her size is a size tall medium (so that's a no on jfashion blouses or tops) and I know she wants that dress specifically. My price limit is around $200 (not including the dress). I just am unsure what shirt, shoes and accessory combo would look good and be comfortable enough for a day event at Disney

>>10244287
>I just am unsure what shirt, shoes and accessory combo would look good and be comfortable enough for a day event at Disney

This is exactly why she should pick it out herself and not you, dumbass. She knows what she feels comfortable in. You don't.

>size tall-medium
That's extremely vague. You need her actual measurements.

>>10244556
Jesus christ anon, dude's just a clueless guy trying to do something sweet for his gf. I have half a brain and even I know "tall medium" means woman's tall medium, as in his girlfriend's tall. Remove the stick up your ass, he's provided enough information.
>>10244201
Just get a black tshirt to go under the overalls and a matching floral accessory. Maybe go the extra mile and find her some matching floral mouse ears. any black shoes would do. Not really "Jfashion" but I hope it helps.

>>10244201
Let me translate for anon since he's retarded
MY GIRLFRIEND LIKES DRESS (PIC RELATED) I WANT TO GET IT FOR HER WITH AN ENTIRE OUTFIT BUT DONT KNOW HOW TO COORDINATE SINCE IM A DUMB MAN. IT NEEDS TO BE COMFORTABLE AND SUITABLE FOR WEARING ON A HOT DAY

>>10244201
here you go

>>10246968

You left out that the girl is also tall and not-small (since she wears a medium, in Asian sizing that's ...not small).

And he's going to get her what looks like a salopette? Just coord it with a fire, that works best on that body type with that skirt type.


It's not like we're not answering because we don't get it. We get it. It's a hopeless case. He's even got a really low budget for an entire outfit, so he's not really even looking for jfash, rather he seems to be looking for ""special snowflake"" fashion, whichever way you advise him he'll probably end up buying something cheap and horrible off wish and then wonder why it looks so bad.

The other anon that suggested buying something the girl likes from her favorite brand, or something from an American store had it right: ditch the special snowflake idea and go with something that's actually sensible.

>>10247108
His girlfriend specifically said she wanted that dress, which was also left out. Around $200 isn't bad for an outfit with a base item already at all imo. Even for my lolita outfits since I own the base items already its just a matter of accessorizing and i can do that for around $200 give or take (get a blouse for $60, shoes for $40, wig for $50, matching accessories for $50) The dress is bonne chance, people use that site for otome all the time, though salopette is a weird option. I have met tall lolitas that swear by them though since the straps are adjustable and can work for any height.
I just think everyone's unnecessarily shitting on this guy imo, I'd kill to get a cord and tickets to go on a date, even if it wasn't perfect, because i could make adjustments myself.
Would you like me to post you my favorite coords with bonne chance? Perhaps it would help you get that stick out of your ass and realize it can be coorded well and youre just simply too much of a cunt to show youre capable.

>>10241963
I usually prefer plain socks with shoes like this, an OTK with nice lace at the top would be good. Pattern wise I think it's REALLY dependent on the actual pattern and how it sits with the straps.

I recently got this dress from a friend and I'm at a bit of a loss with it. I don't normally wear blue (I'm a red/black goth kind of person), so I'm kind of working from scratch. It's also missing the belt, which is minor. I thought it might make a nice undedress but it doesn't really match well with anything I own. It's so pretty, I'd like to wear it, but I just don't know what to do with it. Any ideas?

>>10247710
you can go with white x brown to make it a classic look

>>10246968
This isnt jfashion, retard. Just take your girl to forever 21 and let her pick out clothes since you clearly dont know what jfashion is

Or. Make more effort to learn about jfashion and get her an actual cute outfit

>>10247698

Too obvious. You put too much effort into picking a fight than helping him out.

I mean if you're that great and everybody else is so bad you can easily put together that coord and point him at the right shops, right? Just do that instead of offering to post random images off googsearch.

>>10247710

If you don't want to add a whole new wardrobe, white works well with blue, black and red. Just white legwear and then black shoes and headbow/hat would be a pretty simple basic coord, you can also add a white high-necked blouse underneath the OP and/or a black belt to the outfit as well.

Then everything white that you used for that can be also be used to match your existing black/red wardrobe (assuming the styles don't clash too hard). At least you'd be able to reuse the items until you find the perfect item to layer over/with the blue OP.

If you want to go fancy then you can use a fancier headpiece (assuming you can find one in a matching blue), or add a white or grey lace overdress/peignoir, but some of these items might be harder to reuse with your goth red/black wardrobe.

>>10247834
I work with pastel colors and i know my limits anon. If he wanted something with lighter colors, sure. Whats your excuse?

>>10220541
If ya scroll up there’s a cute pic with a girl with a tartan blazer over a black and white dress. This would look cute styled like that pic

>>10247872

sure, jan

>>10204127
wtf, red and brown I don't associate with blood and poop. You're kind of creepy, anon...

This anon >>10244201 here
I apologize for not specifying that I'd like an outfit with the dress pictured. I did not expect the thread to erupt into arguments over my post, and I apologize for not properly clarifying, as I thought a photo of the dress in my post would be enough.
I ended up buying my girlfriend something different and easier to work into her wardrobe. I thought asking here would be ok because my girlfriend frequently uses this brand in her otome outfits.
I apologize again for any inconvenience. Polite sage.

is this a good coord? i'm going to purchase any sax socks and i already have the blouse but would it be okay with brown shoes? i'm tired of wearing white blouses and socks all the time

>>10244201
cant wait to find her online *sips tea*

Please help me coord Sweet Poodle's Wonder Pocket. Thank you.

Huh, I don't know why you don't see that more. Seems like it will look better than white, but I never really thought of it.

I like the sax blouse + sock combo with and the brown shoes will also be nice.

its silly but im really happy you all were so kind

any help to improve my first coord???
i bought most of it on whim without really thinking about it
still not sure if i should get another black blouse with longer sleeves or not
and also whether or not to get everything else in black too
or any other mistakes i may have made
pls help thanks im stupid and inexperienced

>>10253936
Would change the white headbow for a black one for slightly better color balance.

>>10253945
any recommendation for a decent one?
ive been really struggling to find any on taobao or aliexpress and wouldnt mind buying a branded one

>>10253969
You could look for a cheap secondhand one on lacemarket or ask in facebook salesgroups.

Sweet Mildred on etsy is apparently also fairly decent, but the shop's been on a break since july and I have no idea when the owner decides to come back.

Have you thought of adding a bag to your coord?

>>10253994
thank you!!! ill check them out right away!
and yea i keep forgetting about a bag
was thinking pic related might be good fit??

>>10252472
Am I missing something? Why is everyone shitting on Bonne Chance?

>>10253936
lace top socks would work better. those tights look pretty cheap.

>>10254043
the tights are actually not too bad!
but yea youre right ill get some variations of white and black socks, theyll probably look a lot better

Kind stuck in what blouse to wear with this. It's kind of a burnt pink and I'm not sure if I'm better off wearing it with a cream blouse or trying to find an matching pink one.

>>10254724
I'm retarded, dropped pic

>>10254724
cream or ivory.

>>10254743
Thanks, that's what I thought. It'll make for a fun fall coord

>>10254016
Because while their dresses are cute, they're not lolita.

>>10254761
So coord threads are only for lolita now? Last I remember it was for any jfashion.

>>10254016
You’re missing basic reading skills. I’m talking about his girlfriend not the shit dress

>>10254724

If you're looking for the matching socks, someone on LM is selling them for $10.

>>10255292
Oh shit, thanks!

Keep lying to yourself fatty chan. Maybe stop stretching out your burando and people will hate you less? Go take your period medication sweetie

So my aunt bought me this dress (pic related) and I was really excited, but the more I'm looking at it, I think she may have bought a replica. It's pretty to the untrained eye but I have no idea what to do with this? Do I just wear it to family gatherings and hide it away any other time?

>>10257359

I need newbie help. My friend GAVE me this dress to see if I could figure out a cute way to coord it, but after searching for anything even remotely inspiring for this dress, I'm drawing blanks.

The stripes, the colors of orange and purple, the blues, I'm over my head and can't figure out what I want to do with it. This why I love classic style. Browns + white = done. Tan + black = done.

THIS!? Help?

>>10259327
this dress has some extrange magnetism, at first I was like "trash", but then I was like... wait, I think I l-like it

>>10252471
Cute! Sax and yellow is my favourite combination.

>>10257472
javascript:quote('10258446');
looks like this was just recently released. does the tag say MagicalHolic or?

>>10259460
it does, but she apparently got it really inexpensively. (I assume anyway, she's constantly trying to save money even though she doesn't need too).

She rarely ever splurges even on her kids or herself, so I can't imagine her buying this full-priced from the site.

I'm probably being paranoid, but when I asked about where she got it she said it was her little secret.

>>10259481
Anon, your aunt is clearly in the lolita mafia.

>>10259327
Finding something that's going to match that purple outside of the set is going to be a pain. The easy option from there is just double down on the black. If you don't mind playing with three main colors, then a white blouse and otks that match the white of the ghosts would be fine too, then black shoes) headwear. Then uses jewelry to bring out the colors of the dress. That purple's going to be hard to match, so with this dress the best option is to play it safe.

I’m making my first coord so I just have secondhand cheap stuff from LM and my years of other jfash for now. I know my shoes are ita but I’m not going to get proper shoes until I move to Japan in a few months. I need to save as much luggage space as I can and I’m so spooked of buying shoes when they’re not in front of me anyway.

I’m mainly stuck on legwear. Is it a sin to wear regular thickness socks like the normie polka dots and pearl embellished ones? I really want to continue the mushroom theme onto the socks with the white dots. Eventually when I can buy shoes I want red Mary Jane teaparties or pumps to just wear with white frilly socks though.

Is embroidering my red beret to be like a fly agaric too much? Is the bodyline bolero too much? I have it but idk. Anything to this newbie is appreciated anons.

>>10259503
Thank you anon! I'll see what I can muster up.

>>10259595
I like the beret and socks with the dots. They look like mushrooms! It’d be a cute coord, I love the idea

>>10259595
Also be sure to use Superbuy when you get to Japan. It’s so much better and with the cheapest shipping, stuff gets here in 15-30 days and it’s always under 30 days sometimes even just 15 days.
Antaina has hella accurate shoe sizes so don’t be afraid to order from them!
I’m a shut in so I would rather buy the shoes online than go through Harajuku St which is horribly busy. Also in general: sundays and sometimes mondays are everyone’s day off so lots of places will be closed and there will be a lot of people everywhere

>>10259327
Black blouse and shoes, witch hat, candy jewellery, and black socks with a candy print. One of the issues with the print is that the greens and purples in the print are bright af which is less common in sweet lolita and therefore harder to match without looking like radioactive cupcakes 2.0, hence why black is the safe option here

First time making up a coord, can you please help me?
I can't buy on Taobao rn and I can't afford pricey items - AliExpress is my friend

>>10260051
>AliExpress is my friend
But it's not. Anything of "value" is going to be just as expensive as Taobao, but most likely of much lower quality. That being said, if you're looking for AliExpress items, go to the Ali thread and they can spoon-feed you better than us.
Do you already own the dress?
The pink of the shoes is a much lighter pink than the dress. Those shoes also look like they'll rip you legwear a new one.
Besides that
>Pink head bow
>Otks to match the white on the dress (cream seems like the best option)
>Purse to match either the pink or the white, but it must match

I’m a poorfag with limited budget. Would a nice pair of black shoes go with any outfit?

>>10261118
>ANY outfit
Depends, what style are you going for? Sweet? Absolutely not? Classic? At the very least, get a pair of brown shoes in addition to the black ones for the times it won't. With that you can cover most classic coords. Gothic? Yep

>>10261118
black mary janes go perfectly with classic and goth. and most non-pastel sweet as well.

>>10259725
great advice. Thank you!

Headpiece ideas that aren't necessarily an oversized witch hat or bonnet?

>>10253936
Be sure to match your whites, could just be the lighting but the wristcuffs look like a warmer shade than the tights. Also seconding a black headbow.

For a toned-down coord like this, I would personally suggest styling your natural hair over a wig, but that's a personal choice.

>>10206076
Bodyline is for whales and poorfags

>>10206050
I wear Bodyline if I am doing something where I might run into a dirty environment. Like visiting my family that has a farm to play with the baby goats, going to the fair, or pumpkin picking. Those kinds of activities.

>>10262290

- black headbow
- crown
- veil (with pearls, or maybe clear crazed glass beads, if you're feeling it)

You could probably do a floral crown of black flowers as well, though some autismo is probably gonna ree about mismatched themes (at which point you tell them the jagged shapes of the flowers bookend the jagged shapes on the ends of the lace).

Really sorry if this isn't the right thread bur I can't for the life of me figure out where else to put this. I have a lot of liz lisa skirts and I adore the aesthetic - lots of pink, bows, ruffles etc. But I feel I am kind of shy and want a way to tone them down. What kind of tops can I wear with them that will still "go with" and look good but will feel more normie? Bonus points for being appropriate for really hot weather.

>>10262463
Axes Femme is probably a safe bet, their cream or pink tops would look nice with this.

>>10262463
Sorry for being the token horny scrot, but that skirt turns me the fuck on I kinda want like the tight highs girls wear for sexyness but soft and delicate like a lolita sock, u know what I mean? With the end on top. Oh and shinny shoes, very important. Very bonner inducing. Sorry gull, I had to do it.

I would skip the star clips and get some food-related ones instead. Also skip the glasses, they look random and go with nothing here.

>>10266050
They keep an annual sale because it would disappoint buyers that have been customers for years if they stopped having the sale.
You have to be 18 to post on this board. Grow the fuck up.
Also post fucking coord advice or get the fuck out of this thread, bitch somewhere else.

>>10266046
I like everything except the start clips

This is what I have so far. Looking to wear it for a Halloween meet and also to a nightmare before Christmas concert so going for a jack skellington vibe without it being ott.

Since its an older atelier pierrot piece, I'm kinda leaning towards old school but I haven't seen a bow that I like.

I'd love suggestions for headwear and shoes etc. and advice on what i have already

>>10266894
Mini top hat and platform shoes? I'm not sure about going fully old school with this *and* also Nightmare Before Christmas, as I think it would be cute with the h.naoto x nightmare before Christmas printed tights, the mini hat, and chunky platforms.

Hello gulls! Just looking to get some general opinions. I purchased an OP (bodyline L600) and was wondering what a good way to approach coordinating it would be. It’s relatively hot where I’m living, so I was thinking to wear a beret, cute loafers and frilled ankle socks.

I thought brown would be good for the shoes and hat, but I’m not sure for certain. Maybe a pair of wrist cuffs? I know playing it safe is boring but it feels like hell outside lol

>>10267684
Greetings from another layer of hell, anon. Honestly, boring can be forgiven when Satan's ridding piggyback. I think you direction is great, brown beret/wriftcuffs/shoes/purse, then ivory (or whatever color the dress is) socks and other light, floral accessories

>>10266046
>>10266894
Christ, I thought this was an ita thread for a second.

I bought a Bodyline blouse (L581) on a whim during the sale and have no idea what kind of jsks to pair it with due to the neckline. A lot of what I own has a square neckline and thick straps so it overlaps over the frills and makes me look bulky??
I got it to go with skirts but it'll be nice to have more coord options.

>>10259327
Get a long sleeve grey blouse that matches the bat cookies! And if you can, grey tights with similar colours as details, finding those will be hard as fuck, but would look so good!

That blouse is primarily best with corset dresses like those made by Atelier Pierrot and Millefleurs, but could also work with other necklines (e.g. sweetheart) or lower necklines, where there's less overlap of the frills or only the straps overlap.

>>10267649
That sounds like a good idea thanks! I was thinking of doing 2 separate coords, one for halloween(which would be more old school) and one for the nightmare before xmas as I figured it would be way too much.

How does this work so far? I haven't added accessories or a bolero.

>>10268010
Oh shit, forgot to crop my bad

Gulls, I just got Whipped Jacquard in brown. It’s beautiful but all I can think of is Christmas gingerbread when I look at it. Everyone seems to pair it only with browns and creams. General suggestions? I think it would look nice with lavender or pink.

>>10270691
Idk lavander, but pink blouse and otks + brown headwear and shoes sounds cute. If you want a more classic look wine and green would work too.

>>10270692
Oooh I didn’t even think to pair it with wine! Thanks.

Any idea for good accessories to pair with this jsk?

>>10271745
It really depends what else you're wearing with it, either pick up a colour or a theme (e.g. robotics as being tangentially related, or you can get keyboard/computer themed accessories)

I could use some help with my first coord. I hate the shoes but I put them there as reference, since I can't access Antaina/Taobao in general right now. Have no clue where to buy a decent wig (I'd prefer (possibly ringlet) curls but I guess these are rare nowadays?) or what kind of jewelry to wear.

Also what would look better with this, a blouse or a bolero?

>>10281355
>Bolero or blouse?
Depends on the weather, It's a OP so you'd get away without a blouse and if it's cold then a bolero would look nice. If you wanted to go old-school then a long puffy sleeved blouse would look awesome (Meta, BTSSB, Moitie and Atelier pierott do some in various materials).

>Wig?
Dreamholic wigs are good if you can't access Taobao. Wig in the picture is "Marchen" from their Storenvy and there's plenty of reviews about the different styles and colours.

I added a velvet cameo choker, nails and a matte rose lipstick as that's how I would style it.

>>10283079
Forgot to add, it's summer where I am so I'd go blouseless or chiffon bolero if I wanted to cover up from the sun.

working on my first classic coord. it's anne of green gables inspired. the hat actually has lily of the valley flowers on it. would love some feedback and recommendations on where to get some "granny shoes" like the ones pictured? thanks

>>10283079
Thank you so much, this helps a lot. Especially the wig, it's absolutely gorgeous.

>>10286019
Not that anon but I agree, anyone who's owned real fur knows it's softer and warmer and unarguably better quality than fake fur.

>>10286028
I think you're in the wrong thread.

I know this is extremely cringe, but after finally accepting myself as asexual and being okay with it, I want to create an ace pride coord to celebrate. Does it look good so far, or is there anything I should change?

>>10283321
this is cute and pretty solid. idk where you live but shoes like that were popular for like 8 months in 2014, so you might have luck at a thrift shop, ross or marshall's

>>10286185
I'm worried about that OP with that corset, the OP looks a bit grandma-kei comfy classic, but the corset is pretty goth/ero. have you thought of a black dress with more grey accessories instead? or if you wanna keep the dress then try a more dusty purple/mauve and ditch the corset

>>10268010
even with the white underskirt, that's a lot of black. It'll work, it just might be a bit boring. to change things up I'd maybe get legwear with white and black

>>10286192
Thanks for letting me know! I actually do have a black dress that might look good with it. I'll try creating a new coord using it instead. Will post a pic here when I do.

>>10286185
I'd wear a waistcoat/vest with that type of dress, the vibe of the dress is clasic and the corset is more gothic and kinda in your face plus with the gathering starting from the bust it may look pretty odd.

Hey :)
I got myself the Holy Rosary Jsk, but I'm still looking for a nice headdress.. any suggestions?
Please no veils.

Any idea how to coord with this? I haven’t owned a blue dress before because I heard blues can be tough to coord with

>>10286636
Don’t try finding blues to match this unless you really want to struggle.
You are better off picking any pastel colors from the print and working with it
Quick collage and make use of the star/cloud motifs.

>>10287142
Ah thank you so much, anon! I really love the pastel star hair accessories and lavender blouse!

>>10230708
nayrt but I think they're cute as fuck

I have OP's same dress in sax blue, any ideas for it would be very appreciated. It was babby's first dress and I haven't ever properly worn it.

Any suggestions? I don't want to look like a cheap Alice in Wonderland. :c

>>10286185
congrats anon.

>>10287580
Start simple! Simple white tights or socks, sax shoes (tea parties, boots, whatever fits your style). Hair bow and wrist cuffs.

Or, if you want to get more complicated and spend a lot of time building your first coord, you could go for something like this, which is almost a capsule wardrobe. That way you have a lot of options and can easily expand into different coords just buy buying another main piece.

I can't tell but it looks like the dress also has some pink flowers on it, which you could coord with as well if you want to take your wardrobe in a softer direction. I just went with the trump cards because they're more obvious.

I feel pretty dumb for asking for help for a Misty Sky JSK but everything I found for this specific colourway are coords with white shoes...
I'd really love to use white for the socks so I don't want white shoes, too.
Any suggestions? Thought about silver maybe...

I know it might seem dumb since this is such a basic cut, but I'm having trouble finding a top that really matches this skirt without making it look too punk-y. I'm looking for a more goth look, so I'd appreciate any kind of input.

>>10291960
Moitie just released this nun collar cutsew and it looks nice combined with corset skirts.

>>10292003
Why, thank you! That surely helps, I'll check this cutsew right now

This dress is much more of a light beige (distinct from a cream) than the picture shows. So do I wear a white blouse or a cream? I'm afraid the cream will be be too much of a black/navy situation where you can't tell if you're going for one of the other. A cool white will compliment the blue roses, and then I was thinking beige or brown shoes. Any thoughts?

I'm looking for a similar blouse, it's a pretty simple design so must be easy but I can't seem to find any.
What I look for exactly is:
>black, square neck, short puff sleeves, preferably less frills on chest, chiffon fabric and cross straps are a plus but not a must

>>10259595
I DID IT I made the hat, found better shoes, and wore it all today. Thanks anons for your opinions. The hat wasn’t too much and I even got a compliment on it from a cashier. I also found a red cardigan with dots that looked way better than the green thing. It was just too small.
The dotted socks were sold out soon after I originally posted so I couldn’t grab them lol. I’ll bead the socks I got or run into a bigger dotted cardigan, whichever comes first.

>>10293214
It looks cute. i love the mushroom theme

>>10228772
cheap red tea patties from aliexpress (better than cosplay shoes for a newbie)
