/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Man, I feel lame. The only person that comes to my mind is Mana, since, like, ten years ago. I have yet to find someone I feel the need to adore. I guess my new idol would be ... ... .. Mr. Rococo, no like, I lift weights...

Smileysquid. Master coordinator, holy shit.

My idol is in my comm and I feel like such a dork for saying this, but holy shit she wears the fashion amazingly. Seriously, amazing lolita. I don't want to post her here because I think posting somebody without permission is a bit rude, but yeah.

>>6424259
Shelby clouds, everything she does is amazing. I'm not even sweet (her classic coords are just as fantastic, this just was the first image on google search)

>>.6424289

OP - Agree! :)

>>6424289
I adore Shelby! Even though I don't wear sweet, I love looking at her coordinates.

>>6424283

fuuuuuu! yes Smileysquid!!!!!!!!

Famous lolis? Choconyan, always was, and always will be. She's so gorgeous. Does anyone know what she's doing now?
There's also a girl in my comm who is honestly one of the best lolis I have ever seen. She always looks absolutely perfect. I think she would be a pretty popular lolita if she gave it a shot, but she hates all that stuff, so I'm not even gonna post her picture here.

Ayu is definitely my idol. And she looks just as good in lolita as she does in Kodona!

Karine
Not to sure what her livejournal name is or if she has one?
But omagod!!!!!!!! every co-ord is amazing!!!

Karine
Pic dump!

Ah, there are so many lolis I adore.
Shelbycloud, Kammie and Lunie-chan come to mind.

I wear classic and gothic now, but my idols are still sweet because although I know now that sweet doesn't suit me, I never stopped loving it.

Never really had someone who inspired me to get into it, but Chelle always had super cute outfits: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mermaid-symphony

>>6424344
Isn't she from Brazil?
I remember she used to be mocked to hell and back on the brazilian loli imageboard because her face always looked the same and her attitude was... laughable.

I was going to scream SELF POST but then I remembered she's pretty and her outfits are actually very nice and well put-together.

Sage for possibly confusing the girls.

>>6424340
I always loved her, she was a sweetheart.

>>6424357
lol no i just love her co-ords they are pretty much flawless, i see her pics on tumblr alot and follow her blog : http://mysubarashiilolidays.blogspot.com.br

>>6424344

This Russian girl (i think she is russsian)
Possible new lolita idoruu in the making??

I'd say zeruda, however Herajika and pixie_late are in my comm and since I see so much of their gorgeous co-ords I can't help but put them on a pedalstool a little.

>>6424318

Yes! Choconyan so much!!! <3

Velvet Bat

>>6424586
Her early sweet stuff! -not so much- T__T
But her stuff now! sooo nice she really looks so much better in classic.

Fuck no. Keep this cyber bullshit away from lolita.

>>6424683
No.

>>6424688
Your opinion doesn't change that she is an awesome lolita that dares to try new things and still does other styles beautifully as well.

going to upload so Karine .

-some-

>>6424683
that's a nice outfit and everything, but why does her lower eyes/cheeks look like she's been punched? Is she hiding her bruises or just bad a makeup?

Yourpervert
http://yourpervert.tumblr.com/
Love all her looks!

>>6424726
She looks IMMACULATE in all of these photos, impressive!

>>6424737
if you go to her blog she has an outfits section, you can see just how far she has come in over 2-3 years. Her stuff from 2010 cant hold a candle to the way she dresses now.
I often look at her pictures before i start to think about what i am going to wear.

>>6424726
Wow. I think I'm in love!

I've never been one to have an "idol" or one particular Lolita inspiration, but I love this girl's outfits.

>>6424289
Oh yes! she's my definite idol. I'd NEVER look up at any other Lolita, to be honest. She's nice, elegant, coordinates like a freaking queen and always gives nices advise.
Princess Peachie would be the next best thing, but I havne't really seen her in Lolita THAT much, so I'm staying with shelbycloud.

Don't you mean "who do you think /cgl/ is going to be calling a fake, pig-nosed, photoshopped, fame-whoring bitch with a sugar daddy in a few months"?

>>6424683
I'm amazed. I never thought I'd ever see such a stunning shiro/cyber lolita mashup before. It looks great, and I usually hate cyberlocks and shit like that.

>>6424840
OP- sure thing!

>>6424840

>>6424283
HEY, SAME HERE. I saw this co-ord and it made me take the plunge to finally buy and wear it.

This whoar. I love her so much.

>>6424677
>>6424318
Thirding Choconyan, perfect human being if there ever was one. Rumours has it she's currently working at Emily temple cute so I guess she graduated from the fashion college she went to. My dream is for her to start her own brand, I would buy the shit out of that.

>>6424738
Ohh, I like her coords too!

This girl, but I always forget her name. She's always fabulous!

>>6424997
And this is probably my second 'idol'. She always looks so cute and well put together.

>>6424318
Fourthing! She's one of the people who got me into lolita to begin with, and is the only lolita I've ever consistently followed. I was so sad when she stopped showing up in street snaps!

When I was just getting into the fashion I was slightly obsessed with herajika.

I still like her, but there's also a bunch of other girls -whose LJ names I can never remember- who inspire me. There's a whole bunch of them and they get posted here regularly so I feel pretty derpy for not remembering their names.

My sewing idol is baroquepetrock, though. I wish I had clearer outfit shots of her.

>>6424340
She was wonderful. I am still crushed that she left.

>>6424329
that ita? nope

>>6424318
I've always looked up to her. She is so beautiful.

Oh man, I was obsessed with Nana Kitade back in my weeaboo days/when I started. She seriously dropped from the Earth.

The people who helped me get integrated to the fashion were those who ran or frequented the old myspace group: sugarcreamcandy, amanikitty, zoo_lee, treesdancealone, faunkegan, swd_punk, among others. I don't think they still wear lolita anymore, but if they do, they do a good job staying away from the limelight.

>>6426479
Oh my goodness, you, too?

Man, I remember seeing her in the music video for the opening theme for PPGZ. That's where I fell in love. Good times, man, good times.

>>6426479
I believe Nana Kitade was dropped by Sony and they spread a bunch of rumours about her self-harming and being a crazy bitch and that was pretty much the end of her career? I remember someone saying that to me before, anyway. She has a new band now but I haven't heard of any activity from them in a while.

>>6426513
How long ago was that? I saw her live like eighteen months ago, and I'd been wondering why she hadn't come around again.

>>6426479

God, all those usernames you mentioned. I feel old.

Most of mine have been said. I got into lolita late but here they are in no particular order:

lavenderlillies, zeruda, yourpervert/HSP, chokelate, sapphira doll, and most recently I love katzxix or whatever you spell it. I guess I like girls with piercings? I don't know!

These ladies. They're not always lolita, but I just love their whole visual aesthetic. I want their life.

>>6426479
I don't care what anyone says, I loved faunkegin and thought she was gorgeous and idolized her to high heaven. I wish she'd get back into lolita and out of the void of mediocrity that is hipster Romwe slave blogging.

>>6434011
agreed!

>>6424997
That's Kamalia, she's a Swedish Loli. I remember my first meetups with the Stockholm comm, back in 2010, I saw her and I was like sneaking glances at her all the time because she was just so damn beautiful! Of course I didn't speak to her, I was too shy (I'm glad I didn't, I had just begun loli and looked like a fucking trainwreck). I'd give anything to look like her. And she's talented too, her hats are amazing.

>>6436745
>makes hats

Does she have a LJ or blog or something?

>>6436752

She takes commissions too, of all kinds of hats! And they're all lovely quality, I've seen them at conventions.

>>6436752

her design blog.

her personal blog.

Andrea is one of those girls who is just as beautiful irl as she is in pictures. So jelly.

>>6424738
Does HSP still trip here? I haven't seen her in a while.

>a qt /cgl/ girl will never tell you to bow before her

I always liked crucifixion and tian_shi

>>6426334
wash the sand out of your vagina

>>6437084
>he doesn't know Eva Braun

>>6424283
always smileysquid

Does anyone know this one's name? Her coords aren't always super noteworthy, but damn is she pretty.

>>6441311


... That's Chokelate..

youmustbenewhere.jpg

>>6441312
I'm not big on who's who. I pay more attention to the fashion itself rather than the peeps in it, sorry.

>>6441313

I guess she's not super relevant to /cgl/ anymore nowadays, I know she was a trip on here from what I've gathered. I'm not a lolita myself but I know who she is, and she's very pretty.

>>6432619
I adore lavenderlillies.

>>6441323
Yeah, believe it or not, I've somehow managed to casually lurk on here for almost 3 years (I know, not -that- long) and I know the names of maybe 3 tripfags on here. Guess drama just isn't my game.

>>6441323
She's Tumblrfamous now

>>6441335
Never cared for Tumblr, either. Maybe if they implemented a grouping mechanism like Google+'s Circles I'd use it, but I can't stand the idea of having everything thrown onto a single Dashboard. And tags don't do the work I want, either.

>>6426513

Sony actually cited "health reasons" as a cover story, fired her, and then never said anything about her ever again. In the meantime ni-chan went all stalker and turned up pictures of her with scars down her thighs, blogs showing she was hanging out with boyfriends when she was supposed to be playing concerts etc. and finally she got scary thin and ragged like a junkie. I'd guess it's 'cos she got signed when she was like 15 or something, the pressure got to her and she just went full Lindsay Lohan.

>>6437069
shes popped into taobao threads semi recently
>>6441335
and also a legit model. shes probably been busy. she still comes around every now and again.

Karine made me want to go back to classic.
Her coords are always fantastic.

>>6441628

Not a lolita myself, and I don't know who she is but from an outsider perspective, this lady just looks totally stylish. It doesn't look like "goth loli cosplay" it looks like "really stylish clothes". The problem with most gothloli is it looks like "playing dressup" because most girls fetishize a particular "brand" or "genre" instead of actually thinking about what suits them or how they look.

>>6426479
Holy shit, me too, at the time I wasn't quite into lolita yet and more of a weeaboo but I adored her. Now I wouldn't try to love all of her music like I did back then and idk personality wise, but she's seriously my fashion queen still. She was the best punk lolita.
Nowadays I think she's still with her band but they do more 'underground' stuff than when she was with Sony and that's why no one hears of them. She has a twitter if anyone wants the link.

Also I fucking love Smileysquid too.

>>6441651
Yeah I think you nailed the problem pretty well tbh.

>>6441651
This so so much. I personally am really into sweet lolita but it looks completely ridiculous on me. I fell in love with a very classic piece from IW and bought it and it looks great on me!

Girls seem to think that just because they want it it will look good on them, I know that with regular clothing you have to try stuff on and make sure it looks nice on you before you but it. Most lolitas don't seem to think that way.

>>6441681
Probably because you can't try it on before buying it most of the time. Not an excuse to keep it after that if it looks bad though.

>>6441690
While I agree, I do sympathise. Girls fall in a love with a series, buy it, try it on and it doesn't really work on them but they still love it... I've personally been through every piece of IW's royal emblem series and had to sell them all because none of them really suited me. Shit sucks.

>>6424999
She looks so flawless in all of her photos. I wish I understood her blog ;_;

My first Idol and the reason I found out about Lolita fashion. Forgive me CGL-sempai... ; _ ;

>>6441867
Don't feel bad, anon-chan! I was the same ; 3 ;

>>6441873
Looking back on it she's not that good of a lolita.. I'm trying to hunt down decent pictures, but I've given up at this point. that's the best lolita picture I could find..
