/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

So you're going to spam the same thread until you get the replies you want? Fuck off.

>>>/fa/

>>6760851
It's not going to end. I like J-fashion and all but when I see a white girl trying to wear kimono in pants, I see Lady Gaga.

>>6760856
/fa doesn't want anything to do with J-fash. Just ask them.

>>6760861
It doesn't really matter anyways, because waywt are allowed on /cgl/

>>6760854

I think we should just ignore this samefag that doesn't know how to read board rules.

Agreed?

>>6760856

Would knee high socks look stupid with a skirt cut in high-low, like this one?

>>6760908
Yes. I would use normal tights.

>>6760908
i get the impression the idea of that skirt cut is to bare your legs, not just show of your knees. which never look great on anyone

I it would probably need some different shoes and tights to be fully otome, but I guess otome inspired? I'm always struggling to find out what kind of shoes to use, does anyone have any ideas? I'm not very fan of bows and teaparty style shoes.

>>6760919
werr u shop at?

>>6760919
You are always so damn cute, what is your tumblr?

>>6760908
What style are you going for?

>>6760916
Ah, my problem is that I have scarring on my legs that I try to cover up.

>>6760937
Mori

>>6760929
I usually buy things in normal chain-stores like H&M and ebay.

>>6760935
Thank you! My tumblr is

>>6760939
What color is your skirt? Maybe you could wear something like this if you want to hide your skin?

I just got a haul a few days ago so I've been playing around with some things but I can't seem to find a decent hair accessory to go with this

>>6760946
It's cream. I was planning on coordinating it with a mint top, and the socks are cream and mint. I just realized they are actually over the knee socks, not knee high. Maybe if I pulled the skirt down lower, it would cover it and look like I was wearing tights?

Wore this on Sunday. I was trying to go for an otome look, I don't how much I succeeded. I was at a Japanese cultural festival, hence the cosplayer I was standing next to.

As to what I'm wearing today, it's raining outside, so I'm still in my pajamas.

>>6761000
okay gurl I'm sorry but I feel the need to point out a few things
>that skirt is not flattering, the bottom part would be fine but teamed with the top part (the one with the mini ribbons) it makes your torso look weird, it looks like your wearing a girdle
>the design on the blouse/shirt is too much with that skirt, you can't even see all of it!

>>6761000
This skirt is not doing any favours for your body shape at all, you look like a box. Try pulling it down so the start of the waistband actually sits on your waist and post a picture.

The mixed motifs don't work either, if you're going for creepy cute you need a more even distribution of the styles throughout the outfit for it to work. Otherwise you just look like you're not going for any theme or style and just threw on whatever you saw first. You would be far better of switching the tights to plain hose.

>>6760998
You should probably just stop trying.

>>6761010
>>6761019
Yes, I was thinking the same about my body shape (I haven't walked outside yet, don't worry) I wasn't going for creepy cute I just don't like pantyhose at all but I think I'll have to suck it up for this. Thanks for the advice

>>6760939
understandable, i got that too.
then i would recommend stockings or pantyhose or whatever you call them - the ones with the denier

>>6761009
>What are you wearing today
>Wore this on Sunday

This is why these threads always suck.

>>6761036
hello! Still looking for someone to pay attention to you? Let mama appreciate what you're doing!

>>6761036

I'd like critique on a recent outfit, that's all.

>>6761030
I don't think the top is too bad, but the skirt don't flatter your body shape unfortunately. I (>>6760919) think I have similar shape as you, and flared skirts are definitely the best for us. Your outfit isn't bad at all, but a different skirt would probably be better. As for the hair, maybe you could give it some volume and do something like this, and then a accessory that fits?

>>6761055
Don't worry about it. I think it looks nice, maybe some different shoes, but I can see that it is outside and maybe a bit cold.

>>6761000
link to the skirt?

>>6761110
I purchased it off of Mbok. I thought it was a Liz Lisa skirt but it's from TRALALA. It's from their 2011 S/S collection (I think) so it might be difficult to find but maybe one will pop up soon.

>>6761110
I actually found a similar one just now for 1,000yen. It's a bit darker than mine and it's a salopette but it's tiered and has a bow on the back as well. Let me know if you want the link.

>>6761148
Thanks! I'll try to look for it.
>>6761175
That I do

>>6761000
Gurl, dis you? >>6761141

>>6761009
Oh hey, that was Experience Japan! Your blouse is so cute.

>>6760919
you are cute. but your face looks a little downsy. maybe try doing some eyeliner on your inner corner so they don't look so far apart

>>6761182
http://www.mbok.jp/item/item_336206131.html?_SRC=top_arci01
>>6761184
Yes, friend.

>>6761200
Between the two photos, I think the issue is that you're too topheavy for the looks you're trying to pull off. You need to balance out your hips with your shoulders/chest by having some volume down below, your bodytype appears to be an inverted triangle. Otherwise, like another anon said, you look like you're wearing a girdle.

>>6761192
Yeah, I know that would make them seem closer together, but I don't really have much of an inner corner so it's not possible...

>>6761219
I agree. I originally purchased the denim skirt thinking it was Liz Lisa since it tends to stretch more and be around xs-m but TRALALA is strictly xs. I think I'm going to sell it since it doesn't suit me and there's no point in keeping it. But thank you. I'm to try to balance my outfits out like you said.

>>6761220
you draw it in. most girls don't have a super pointy inner corner, but that's the look they achieve by putting eyeliner there.

>>6761231
Yeah, I know, but I don't really have any inner corners to draw on you know? Pic related. Where am I supposed to draw it in? On top of the other skin?

I just have a really weird face I guess.

>>6761273
No you have a kawaii face.

>>6761273
yes, on top of the other skin.

>>6761273
your face reminds me of one of the angelic pretty designers. :x

>>6761279
Aw, thank you ;_;

>>6761299
Haha, I can see that we have the same wide nose.

>>6761284
Usually you have eyelids in the inner corner of your eye, but I have such a wide nose that it covers the corner. Lets say that I draw in a corner on top of the other skin. If I close my eyes or blink, then I will have a weird black spot that doesn't follow the eye. Trust me, I have tried... But thanks for trying to help me.

>>6761331
you are retard. you might actually have down syndrome.

>>6761335
I kind of get what she's saying anon, look at her eyes. Maybe you need to lay off.
You're kawaii as fuck man.

on the subject of eyes, how do i put eyeliner on if i have double eye lids on one side but a single eye lid on the other?

>>6761273

Have you tried contouring your nose? I have a low nose bridge and it helps me define my face.

>>6761335
>>6761299

itt: people who've never seen asians IRL before

>>6761273
awww, you're so cute. you look like lilo

>>6761345
Also on the topic on noses...is there any contouring I could do to shorten the look of a nose? It's not wide but kind of long

>>6761335
You clearly have no understanding what so ever of how epicanthic folds work.

>>6761331
I was more thinking about the width between your eyes. Maki has really wide-set eyes, too. I've seen her highlight the inner corner of her eyes instead of using liner, so if you're worried about weird black spots maybe try that as an alternative?

>>6761349
Haha, I have heard that one before. We have the same nose and wide set eyes.

>>6761372
Aren't white in the corner supposed to make your eyes further apart?

>>6761345
Yeah, that works too (as long as you don't look at it from the side I guess).

I'm thankful that people are giving me tips, but honestly I'm not really too bothered about it. I mean, it would be great to have a different nose, but I'm not losing too much sleep over it. Hopefully someone else got some tips that will help them.

>>6761358
I think darkening under the tip of the nose would make it look shorter.

>>6761009
I don't think the boots go with the outfit, nor the coat. Some cute shoes with kitten heels would look better, and a cardigan or a coat in a different colour instead of the coat you have on in that.

>>6761000
This looks like shit. The colors don't match, the skirt doesn't flatter your figure at all, those shoes don't work at all, and you threw on a pair of skeleton tights which don't match anything else you're wearing.

Ditch the shoes in favor of something in a color you're wearing, lose the skirt because it just hugs your hip fat and makes you look like a big rectangle, swap the tights for something a little cutesier like bows, or maybe some fake garter tights, or thigh highs with pastel accents, and a cute color complimenting bow would work so much better with your outfit.

That said, the shirt and tights are cute, but not together.

Tried hama girl after reading about it in a thread. You can't really see my anchor earrings or pearl bracelets, and I still am not sure I really succeeded with the look.

>>6761582
Hama girl is nautical fashion, yes? If so, that's not a bad attempt. I like the top half, especially the hair, but it's the bottom half that bothers me. Lace seems too delicate and feminine for the look, an a-line skirt with navy and white (or maybe even red and white) stripe would look better IMO. The tights would look better if they were solid white, and the boots in navy. I do think it's a cute outfit, just a little mis-matched.

>>6761593
Agreed

anon could also do brown wool shorts

>>6761582
I get a sea feeling from it so I guess you succeeded. Only thing is that you could maybe use more sailorish hair accessories? Maybe something like this?

>>6761593
>>6761597
Hama means beach, not sailor. Personally, I think it would be cool add more seashells and natural foamy pieces than more sailor.

>>6761593
Hama is sea-inspired mori fashion, so lace is actually perfectly in line with the look (though I don't like the lace in this coord).

>>6761595
Yeah, if anon wore brown shorts with this, all that would need to be swapped out would the tights, since the shorts and the boots would work together.

>Okay, now that we all know WAYWT threads are allowed on /cgl/,

When was this confirmed??

>>6761619
I believe moot himself said so, as long as they're j-fashion related. It's also in the rules now.

>>6761582
I like the lace! I think you should go for nice beach waves with more volume with your hair and then add a ton of seashells.

It snowed AGAIN today, so nothing cute :c

>>6761096

Ah, thanks so much! I should probably start investing in different footwear - I normally don't pay much attention to it and it is a weakness when it comes to my wardrobe. I've been eyeing some cute brown shoes recently, but they're really cheap and my feet don't really react well to cheapness. I'll probably have to look around some more.

>>6761190

Yup! It was pretty good low key fun. And thank you.

>>6761452

As I said before, footwear is not really my strength. As for the coat, well, let's just say our opinions differ on how many coats one should have. I'll take my coat off next time for pictures, heh. Thank you for the critique though. I do agree the coat doesn't match, I just have a problem in that I currently have a winter coat, a rain coat, and then one of those parkas and it's hard to store in my tinyass closet.

>>6761634
In the middle of april? where do you live??

I looked at the hama tag on tumblr and now I'm confused. It looks like a jumble of vaguely sea related confections.

Toned down lolita look for a family gathering. There was a nice woods nearby so I thought I'd take some super deep artistic snow photos

>>6760919
The boots are cute but maybe some simple mary jane type shoes for a more otome look? You can get them in lots of cute colours too. Nice outfit though!

>>6761009
The coat and shoes together are really cute! Maybe if you had a brown skirt it could have a red riding hood feel for another time.

>>6761582
The top is really cute! I don't really know much about this style but I don't think the grey tights match as much.

>>6761648
That's because it's not really a thing at all
But >http://midori-sakura.blogspot.de/2012/12/da-floresta-para-o-mar-hama-girl.html does a good job of collecting "hama girl" looks if it were a thing.

>>6761646
Europe's still pretty fucked, weather-wise. I was completely shocked when I heard how hot it is in the US, winter still hasn't properly ended here.

>>6761646
Not that anon, but we've been getting crazy weather down in the South of England. It started snowing in January, and it just keeps coming back.

(This is in a place where three years ago we were lucky to get a couple of hours of proper snow a year.)

>>6761660
Well from that...she did pretty well for a first attempt.

i was going to wear thigh-highs, but they were pure white/didn't match the cream in the cardigan. any suggestions for accessories?

>>6761669
take the bows off your cardigan's hem, put them in your hair instead. Pearly bracelets to match your necklace. otherwise you look cute. The riding boots aren't going to be to everyone's taste, though, I would have worn an offwhite or light pink heel if I were you instead. the rest of the outfit has a very feminine feel that your shoes are not contributing to.

>>6761582
>Navy leggings
>Lace on boots

>>6761669
I love the silhouette and would wear as is because I love those kind of boots, but >>6761674 is right. maybe some brogues to make it less bottom heavy?

>>6761654
I am ridiculously jelly of your Moonlight Night.

>>6760998
Would it not be easier to just buy some tights?

>>6761582
It reads very hama girl, or nautical inspired mori or whatever, I like it! Maybe have your hair a little messier and add a lacey hair accessory.
The only thing bothering me is the boots but I can't really think of anything more fitting except wellies... which might be a bit ridiculous (although I remember they were in fashion a few years ago).

>>6761679
>>6761674
>>6761669
I actually really like the boots with it.

maybe a darker cardigan would balance it out, but it's fine as is. changing the shoes would look more stereotypical.

>>6761674
>>6761679
ah thanks for the input!! i'm sorely in need of shoes (don't own any pairs other than these boots in brown and black lel) - taobao, here i come~

>>6761664
I feel your pain anon. I'm in the middle of canada, enough said. ugh we'll probably have winter until may

>>6761654
Gulper Eel?

>>6761646
i live in fucking wisconsin and we are still getting shat on

>>6762170
This. Michigan is still getting snow. Not everyone in the US lives in a desert.

bump!

>>6761681
Meta winter Lucky Pack 2012 was the best decision I ever made.

>>6762147
Yep! With my real hair for once.

>>6761669
pls tell me where you got the cardigan from

Attempted otome again. Pardon the fact you can't really see my shoes and the messy hair (just came back from town, where it was really windy).

I'm also at a loss for accessories - what should I do to get a good sort of multipurpose set of accessories, I suppose? I have this one pendant on a really long chain (seen here) but any other ideas for necklaces, bracelets, hair accessories, etc?

>>6762821
I think if you put a slight curl in your hair it would look really nice.

>>6762821

This doesn't look otome at all...

>T-shirt
>No pants

This is the way it should always be, even if I am working with hot glue and worbla. Also, paint doesn't stain skin, but it will stain pants if I wear them

>>6762821
Eri?

>>6762821
I'm not super familiar with otome, but this doesn't look like what I've seen either.

I feel like otome would have a quirky print on the skirt instead, but I could be wrong...

That said, it does look very, very nice!

>>6762825

Ah yeah, it would. Thanks for the advice

>>6762854
>>6762949

Ah, all right, I wasn't so sure myself either. Thanks for telling me though - I get confused sometimes as to what certain styles entail, just because it's not as clear cut as lolita and seems to have more debate. So quirky prints, lots of color, right?

And thank you for the compliment, even though it's not otome at all haha.

>>6762930

No? I don't post my coords haha.

>>6761582
Found you on tumblr, anon!

>>6762784
I like your real hair maybe even more than I like you in wigs. You're adorable. c:

I dressed up today for a fancy art event that's happening later this evening. I wanted to go with a brown/pink/green color scheme-- the boots are a bit lighter than my camera makes them out to be.
I know my hair doesn't quite suit the coordinate; I'm going to pay professionals to do something with it before the event starts, and swap out the sunhat for a pink bow after it gets dark.

>>6763038
you are super pretentious

>>6762821
I think it looks pretty otome, there are different types of otome, and I think this looks like the more mature, classic type. Not everything have to be kawaii and donuts on dress.

>>6763039
but isn't that kind of the point of lolita?

>>6761582
Hama is not a style. Stop trying.

>>6763073
if it isn't, then it should be. mori is definitely capable of enough variation to warrant substyles.

>>6761582
Hama is totally a style. Keep succeeding.

>>6763038
why crop out the rest of the background but go around the prints on your wall?

>>6763038
Good luck on your bfa, anon.

>>6763085
It may not be established, but mori wasn't at one time, either.

>>6763039
Wait, because I'm dressing up for a gallery opening? or because I'm getting my hair done? I'm just really bad at using curling irons on myself and can never get the back to look right.

>>6763145
Thanks, tumblr-anon. I'm pretty relieved that it'll all be done with after tonight.

>>6763095
I was standing right next to my trash can & paper towel packs & a two-liter coke bottle, so I got nervous that I was going to get ragged on for having a gross-looking living space.
But nobody can/should complain about sakizou prints.

Hama girl take two. I tried some of the concrit you guys gave me. My only navy leggings looked black next to the faux-denim top, so I'll look for a new pair in the future. I let my hair down and had it much more fluffy, but I was at the beach and as you can tell it did a number on my hair, oh well. I took some navy x white waist ties from a skirt and tied them around the boots to try to pull the bottom half of the outfit together. Not perfect, but it's better, I think.

>>6761593
>>6761597
I was trying to incorporate the mori elements with the nautical ones, guess I didn't blend them together so well.

>>6761648
>jumble of vaguely sea related confections
I think that should be the official definition of hama!

>>6761660
Love this link, I spent a lot of time looking through it to try to get a better grasp of the style.

>>6761687
I'll work on some better shoes!

>>6763021
Drop your blog in my ask, I'll follow you!

>>6763085
Thanks! I'm really enjoying the look, and it really suits where I live. I'll keep working at it and hopefully get something really good together.

>>6763238
Last shot. Thanks for the advice, everyone!

>>6763238
>>6763264
You can stop posting a million pictures of the same outfit, thanks.

>>6763270
two pictures is not 'a million'. personally, I like it when girls repost to show they've taken con/crit.
y so sandy vagina, anon?

>>6763238
I really like the addition of the ties on the boots, and the close-up of you sitting on the rocks is an excellent photo. The breeze lifted your hair up just enough so that we can catch a glimpse of those anchor earrings. c:

Why do WAYWT threads on /cgl/ always turn into "please give me advice on this stuff I wore before" threads?

>>6763302
Because now they actually have to be Jfashion or cosplay related so people just post the last time they wore Jfashion or cosplay.

>>6763264
Only thing this outfit needs is a rhinoplasty.

>>6763302
Why are you so angry about that though? I quite enjoy seeing what actual seagulls wear and discussions to improve certain looks.

>>6763264
I don't know how you managed to get to the beach and still somehow make this outfit look even worse.

>>6763370
Please what you're wearing today, anon. Let's see what you've got.
>>6763306
This. I agree. Con crit is best when not sugar coated, and this is the place to get it.

i love when white women tear eachother down

>>6761405
No, you're perfect, and I don't really get why people are giving you tips anyway. You have a really unique face, which is memorable, and it's very lovable. You're kawaii as fuck.

took this for codenote today, I guess I'll post it here. it's been a while! pretty simple outfit, I can't stand how much I love this dress though.

>>6764012
Love this, your hairbow is beautiful. Only suggestion I'd make is maybe add a necklace and a ring or two?

>>6764012
That dress is beautiful, but the way it's askew in the bodyshot is making my eye twitch.

>>6764033
haha, I'm sorry, I did fix it after. It was straight out of the packaging.

Come on, now, anon. This is why we can't have j-fashion threads in /fa/. They immediately shut down everything as looking stupid and unfashionable. It's fine that they think that, but some of us want to have actual productive discussions on Japanese street styles. We get it /fa/, you think mori girl looks like a bag lady. Thanks for the input, no one has ever made that connection before.

>>6764668
I've seen /fa/s idea of girls dressing nicely, and it's shapeless and everything is navy, grey, or black I swear. So boring, nothing pretty

>>6764668
I like having WAYWT threads here but honestly most of the outfits posted in this one are pretty bad compared to our previous threads

>>6764811

They're just beyond boring and uncreative... So back to the WAYWT?

I'm not saying they're bad because they're j-fashion, I'm saying they look bad because they're poorly coordinated (>>6761009, >>6761000, >>6763038) or don't fit what they're supposedly representing (>>6762821).

post your concept of a good outfit, at least :>

>>6765002
...Or a skirt. Whichever.

>>6765002
This is my real hair anon. I combed it and put it in pigtails. It has so much volume because it was curled yesterday.
And I do have shorts on, they're just short and underneath my shirt.

y u so mad?

>>6765010
How is telling you that you look like shit 'mad'?

>>6765015
Jealously.

>>6765016
Lol

believe me when I say, no, you just look like shit.

>>6765019
Keep telling yourself that (◡‿◡✿)

>>6765024
Lol jesus christ you are so mad

>>6765027
Not at all, actually. (∪ ◡ ∪) Tired, taking my kawaii self back to bed. ｡◕ ‿ ◕｡

>>6765016
Haha stop.
I'm the anon from (>>6764980) and we're not trying to put down your confidence, we're saying the outfit you're wearing looks like a mess. It has hardly anything to do with being jealous.
We're trying to help you from being put on blogs like peopleofwalmart.

>>6765016
guuuuuurl who would be jealous of that

>>6765029
At least you admit you look like you literally rolled out of bed ｡◕ ‿ ◕｡

>>6765035
I did just roll out of bed, I put my hair up and took a picture. At least I'm confident enough to put a picture up. Where's your picture.

｡◕‿◕｡

>>6765036
I'm not a retard that selfposts to 4chan when I look like shit. Bye.

>>6765036
srsly just stop already. Your false confidence isnt covering up the butthurt at all. You're making yourself look dumb.

>>6765036
I know this is a waywt thread and all but girl, you should try /soc/.

>>6764969

I came in to see what the deal is. Bed head doesn't literally mean roll-out-of-your-bed-hairdo. Your hair looks damaged from the dye, and that hairdo just makes it worst. Personally I would never wear something like this outside, but maybe you're not even planning to go out in it.

Take what you will from me. I usually dress in otome when I go out, so I can't imagine myself looking like that outside.

>>6765056

Actually, I said it wrong. I wouldn't buy something like that even for comfy wear since I don't live alone. It's really not flattering at all.

>>6765063
I'm not her but you would wear it for comfy wear? Who cares if comfy wear is flattering. My most comfy sweats and shirts are super unflattering but that's sort of the point

>>6765068

Well, I wouldn't want to buy something that looks like an eyesore to me. I like comfy off-shoulder sweaters and cute t-shirts. Even if I don't go out, I can still see it when I look in the mirror or doing laundry.

>>6765068
I mean, I don't think anyone cares what you're wearing just lounging around the house, but if you're going to post it online, in a thread for showing off outfits, you can't really make that argument?

>>6765063

I live with three housemates, two of them strangers. I'm pissed off at one, I honestly don't give a fuck that she sees my out of work clothes as oversized corduroy pants and my boyfriend's sweater. They're comfy and they cover me, that's all I care.

Though I do know one house that threw out their guy because he refused to wear pants in the house lel.

>>6764969
Way to kill a thread.

>>6765036
>I did just roll out of bed
uh you rolled out of bed with make-up and sheer tights

Tried out otome today. Still not sure I completely understand this style. Since I've seen people on here describe it as jaunty, I decided to go with more red. I'm not 100% sure my jewellery goes, but it's the only reddish jewellery I have. Well, berries and berries? It kind of goes.

>>6766292

Definitely otome. I think it looks cute, but it could be better with another necklace.

>>6766292
i love your jewelry! where is it from??

>>6766297
Thanks. What style of necklace do you think I should look for?

>>6766298
Thank you. It was handmade by a friend of mine a couple of years ago.

Also another question, should I look for tights with a pattern or just plain tights are fine?

>>6766298

You can find the necklace and bracelet set all over taobao.

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.55.e7FS3F&id=14592237184

>>6766310
Ah I think that is the piece it was based off, except I saw it on Rakuten and was sold out. That's why my friend made it for me.

>>6765036

This girl is from my comm and lives in Australia where it's becoming Winter now and it's starting to rain so I have no idea what this is at all.

>>6766358
She also posted a large list of tumblrs she loved once on here but tried to sneakily include her own which would have been passable if it was not empty besides twenty pictures of her.

>>6766365

Aw, she clearly has daddy issues. How can anyone be jealous of that?

This thread was so kawaii before this shit storm happened.

>>6766292
does otomo mean qt3.14159 gf material???

>>6766292
>>6766529
Calling all qt 3.14s please post your adorable selves

>>6766529
>>6766537
How can you tell someone is cute when her head is cut off the pic?

>>6766587
her outfit is cute and it makes her body look cute. dunno about the face.

>>6766304
Loooooool your friend ripped you off and gave you a taobao necklace >>6766310

>>6766618
Not the anon you're replying to but those are obviously not the same necklace... Anon's has proper leaves while the Taobao one has oval shapes.

>>6766529
>>6766537
>>6766611
Thank you, I'm glad you like my outfit. I think otome is very cute.

>>6766618
My friend didn't get it from Taobao. I know because I bought the beads for it. Like >>6766625 pointed out, it's got different leaves. The catch at the back is a bit different too because she couldn't find a long enough chain.

>>6760919
I love your sweater! Where's it from? Your style is always so nicely put together.

>>6761582
I like your outfit. It's pretty interesting to see how people interpret hama girl.

>>6761654
Very pretty, that skirt is lovely.

>>6761669
Your dress is really nice. I love your necklace too. Agreeing about the boots, but other than that it's very cute.

>>6762821
Your outfit is elegant and classy. Very feminine.

>>6764012
This has a nice vintage feel to it.

>>6766292
Very nice otome outfit. Is that dress from ETC? I think if you wanted to you could add some more texture to your outfit with textured tights but to be honest, it's a lovely outfit as it is.

>>6764969
Made me giggle cause the main outfit is just the shirt.

It's fuckin cute

Otome (? this style is hard to define) for me today. I know I look bottom heavy in the picture, but that's because the photo is taken from below. Also can't wait until I move out, so I will have better places to take photos...

>>6768880
This feels more like an unfinished lolita coord than otome to me personally- due to the overall look being softer than otome typically feels.

It's nice overall but nix those shoes, they look like my dad's house slippers.

>>6768887
That's why otome is so hard to actually do, because all that is said is that it should look like a "young maiden"

And the shoes just didn't turn out well in the photo, they are actually really cute IRL
>pic related

>>6768891

They look slightly better, but they're still too dark and 'heavy' for this coord. Maybe try shoes in lighter colors with cuter details. Like maybe light pink ribbon pumps. More hair accessories would be nice too. I like the spring-ish colors in your coord!

>>6768910
I'm waiting for a pair of pink ribbon maryjanes from taobao, will use them with dress when i get them. I have a flower in my hair but unfortunately you can't see it. Will try out some more accessories next time

>>6768880

This looks like something on modcloth rather than otome. Get rid of those horrible shoes.

>>6768880
I think it looks cute, but I would use a more "normal" cardigan, they look less elegant and more young and cutesy. Also agree about using lighter shoes. Colors could be light pink, lighter beige or cream. It's a nice outfit though!

>>6768891
I like these shoes but I think you should replace the laces with a ribbon or something.

>>6768999
Thank you, I'm waiting for some lighter pair of shoes (I only have brown and black ones or converse at the moment) so i will be using them when they arrive

>>6764811
I think it's because we have a lot of learnings, which is FINE. Honestly, these threads still look a LOT better than /fa/'s WAYWT threads on most days. A lot of really boring dad-core, Banana Republic-core, with a handful of disasters or actual nice looking posts. That's...really most of it.

>>6769060
And gosuninja.

Can't forget that atrocity.

>>6769060
>learnings
**learners
Sorry. WAYWT are a good place to make some solid changes to a wardrobe/outfit, mostly because the criticism is RIGHT THERE in your face, so it makes for better habits down the line. I think a lot of people here will improve a ton

>>6769060
agreed. letsgotofa.tumblr.com is a comedic goldmine.

>>6768880
where is that bolero from?

>>6769219
Found it in a local shop for sale, but I'm sure you can find similar ones on taobao

just a plain otome inspired outfit on my day off!

>>6769327
Cute as shit, anon. Well done.

>>6769327

Aw fuck, that bag is something I've always coveted.

>>6769327
Kawaii/10. Great job bringing out the red without it looking too costumey.

>>6769327
Dem shoes. Your coord is cute as hell.

>>6769327

So cutie! Best one yet!

Thank you all so much! AP needs to release more primary colored dresses :(

god dang. tfw no otome gf

>>6760851
God damn those girls are fine

This needs a bump!

Con-crit?

Sorry for the boring hair, it was humid today and I was in a rush to leave the house.

I feel like the skirt would be cute with a little poof and that the cardigan neckline isn't quite right. I'm pretty clueless on what leg wear would work with this other than some frilly ankle socks.

Thoughts?

>>6770918
try to find a v-neck cardigan if it's important to you. the button detailing on that dress is cute and it's a shame to cover it up. I think the skirt's fullness works for a daytime casual look, the overal effect is simple and cute. For legwear...either dress it up with some white tights in a cute pattern, or OTKs. You could also play around with some more neutral colors to complement the offwhite of your bag and shoes instead of white.

>>6770918
Thanks for the tips anon!

It is a bit of a shame to cover up those little details on the blouse and skirt but it did get a little cold in the air conditioned classrooms.

I suppose the lack of poof is just a little odd for me since I'm use to wearing a full petti.

I'll keep an eye out for some OTKs (I don't really own any suitable ones right now.)
I'm not too sure about using white though since there really isn't any in the rest of the outfit, my crappy pictures just distort the colours a fair bit since everything is more creamy irl.(pic related)

>>6770991
Crap, meant to reply to >>6770978

wear pants instead of skirts

>>6771263

look at yourself. :<

>>6769327

Where is your dress from??

>>6771938
That's French Cafe by AP.

>>6771938
What a cute troll. I'll give you 5/10 for the effort.

>>6770999
Why?

>>6771992
obviously that anon only wants to see fat ugly legs. get these skinny nice ones out of here and in some pants!

>>6760919

Damn, you're cute.

What camera do you own btw?

>>6772003
Different anon, but I think that she would look stellar in shorts. That particular outfit does funny things to the proportion of her legs to her body.

>>6772328
Thanks anon, but I think I look kind of odd in shorts since I have rather large thighs in comparison to my lower legs.

Hmm, I think you're right about the proportion thing though since I sit the skirt up on my waist, plus the fact that the mirror is on a bit of an angle doesn't help either.

>>6772390
I have the same problem (cosmic-proportion thighs) and I find it really depends on what kind of shorts you wear.

Tiny shorty shorts are not as flattering as ones that are a bit longer (up to mid-thigh). It also helps if they're not tight and come away from the legs because my legs look skinnier then.

Also, weather permitting, nude tights kinda keep my blubber compacted.

>>6772569

'Cosmic-proportion thighs' is a new one. My ex would always call them 'Chun-Li thighs.'

I'll look at some longer shorts for when the weather heats up again. I don't know how I'll go though since butt showing short shorts are still in style, but hopefully that trend will die soonish since it makes it a pain to find anything that isn't like a belt on me.

>>6764969
Wow you stole that from my tumblr. Way to fake yourself faggot.

>>6773098

Way to try and backtrack when you get told you look like shit. No one would bother 'stealing' that to post here.

So >>6764969 has stolen the pic they are using.

I know the girl in the picture irl and I thought something was off at first since the anon's replies seemed to sound different to what they are normally like.

Also the whole 'summer' thing makes it super sus as well since the actual girl in the pic is an ausfag and we're heading into winter over here NOT summer.

The pic also first appeared on this girls tumblr on the 9th and then on here on the 13th.

>>6764969
>>6764974
The source is actually from the Gainax jp WEBstore. The release is about 2 years old :( It was a collab between Galaxxxy and Gainax.
>>6764988
Are you fucking kidding me? from redbubble? sell them at Hot Topic? You silly American, not even close. Get your facts right before you steal someones picture and make them look like a complete fool. Hottopic or redbubble are not even close to Australia.
>>6765010
And, kill yourself please.

Stop listening to this faker please.

>>6773110
Obviously this person is American, i'm Australian. Silly willy.

>>6766292
Oh hey, I have the same necklace!
Are you the anon who was asking for coords of this dress? Either way, you look great! <3

>>6773115
Wait wait wait. I actually believe you. Only because the person who took your pics seems to think that you're supposed to be asian, and so they're acting like a weeby japanese girl.

>>6773133
Different anon here but I'm pretty damn sure the original anon is a fake.

The syntax of the two are completely different!

>>6773148
Yeah the second one sounds like a cunt. Honestly she woulda done more damage control if she just stayed silent.

>>6773155
You sound like a fucking cunt,

>>6773155
Wouldn't you be pissed if someone was pretending to be you though?
What's worse is the fact that the identity thief isn't even doing a very good job at it.

>>6766292
Your coords are also so lovely! I think you posted a hand made jsk a while back! Whats your tumblr?

>>6761654
>>6761009

both of you have nice coats where are they from?

>>6773288
>mod showing face
I actually thing you look well put together

This thread needs to go.

>>6773288
not j-fashion, doesn't belong in this thread
but
I totally understand why you would want a second opinion. /fa/'s waywt threads are shit.
I think you look nice. I would've maybe gone with a different pair of shoes because it looks like those are a true black whereas your pants are a dark brown--this could just be that the colors on my monitor are askew, though, so feel free to ignore that.

>>6773288
Why would /fa/ disapprove of this? This seems like what they always post men to wear?

Anyways, I'm with the other anon on a different pair of shoes, but I also can't really see them. Is that jacket real leather? You look better than a lot of guys I interact with on a daily basis.

>>6773288
looks tryhard imo, but probably not tryhard enough for /fa/

>>6773288
I like it, but maybe not the pants and belt. Strange that /fa/ doesn't like it though, it kinda looks like their kind of style.

Posting todays otome outfit. I don't know why, but it seems like a lot of dresses with print from China have the print sewn on upside down... The dress is still cute I think, but it's a bit weird.

>>6773368
I got a dress from Taobao with the print sewn upside down as well. You don't notice unless you really look at it, but it is strange.

Either way, you look adorable.

>>6773379
Thank you!

Yeah, it is strange. I have another dress from China that also have the print on the skirt part sewn on upside down. It can't really cost that much to turn the print the right way before sewing?

>>6773326
They'd disapprove of this because the fit is shit and those almost-fancy-but-not-quite pants with those shoes and belt don't match the leather jacket. Which also looks too big.

I'm not even from /fa/ but even I can see what's wrong with it.

I think my outfit's pretty cute today, but in a simple living-doll sort of way (so generically cute and not just jfashion cute).
Is that enough for it to count?

>>6773113
I saw that post in the waywt. /fa/ doesn't like it because it's not boring monochrome and sweats. (which is atrocious in my opinion anyway) So, looking good, and yeah, the shoes

>>6773368
goddamnit please birth my children you adorable, lovely girl

>>6773288
That jacket is all sorts of awful. Please burn it, now.

>>6773368
I wish i had nice spaces in my apartment to get my outfit photographed at... You are really pretty! Those colors fit you so well

Bad Mirror image... me today. I have a pink bow in my hair that is not visible

>>6773416
This feels a little mismatched to me... There's too much saturation on the bottom with that red that outweighs the neutrals up top, creating an imbalance in the overall look. I'd recommend either toning the tights down to something a little more neutral, or bringing more bright color up top to balance it out.

Overall silhouette is cute though. Maybe add some hairpins to give you something to look at in front too, assuming the bow is in back.

>>6773288
>>6773288

That ain't ninja

>>6773416
Where is the skirt from?

>>6773425
The tights a muted pink , not red, but maybe I should use even lighter ones

>>6773445
It's sewn by me, with Derpy chan fabric from Spoonflower

>>6773368
more than anything I love the hair.
still a great outfit though, the socks and shoes are a great addition

>>6773326
because the perfecto knock off in an unsigltly color, and pleather material is about 4 sizes too big

the dickies tier pants he's wearing are too big around his waist and cinched.
but are polyester anyways

and his sneakers look like cheap sketchers shape ups

he should swap the jacket for a maison martin margiela 5 zip, or rick owens intarsia or even stooges if he loves the schott perfecto look


get a pair of wool or poplin cotton pants that are TAILORED

ditch the cheap belt or get something from salvator ferragamo or hermes

and get a shoe with a leather sole and decent sillouette

or follow the current mens wear trend and get john lobb shoes and get them polished in a manner that makes them look like a sunburst colorway on a fender guitar

Boring but I did a chalk festival at my university.

>>6773918
I remember that time when sieg came to our waywt thread wearing a shirt that was too tight and small. He didn't understand what we meant when we pointed it out, because his shirt was Prada or something (like that would make it okay to wear an too small shirt).

>>6773979
How is this j-fashion? Go to >>>/fa/.

>>6773979
not j/fa/ or /fa/, gtfo and post something related

>>6773416
please ditch the sailor moon necklace.
everything else I'm okay with, you could pass as otome or retro-inspired IRL, but that necklace just makes me write you off instantly as an enormous weeaboo.
if you are going to wear it with an every-day outfit, choose a simple, light-colored top so that it will stand out and keep your motifs coordinated.
Also I think you should've gone with either off-white or cream tights in order to make the contrast between those interesting strappy sandals and your foot more interesting.

>>6773985
you mean this shirt?

its actually tailored thank you?

I know you're used to cheap macys and express shirts all baggy but this is how you wear a shirt

>>6774083
I meant this you fatass.

>>6774100
how is that prada? its very clearly a raf simons X fp shirt

when I posted this back in 2008 I had some kid that wore H&M vests and baggy jeans with a fedora tell me that it's too old man/brandwhore/tight

it was just a simple cheap hickey freeman suit, with a vintage ysl tie my dad gave me, and a tailored john varvatos French cuff shirt

so I take this shit with a grain of salt here

>>6774116
Doesn't matter what the kid was wearing or what brand it is, it's still too tight for your fat body.

>>6774100
if anything that shirt's too big, it's FAR from too tight
although sieg is slightly overweight yeah

>>6764217
let's be skype hikki buddies. Just to keep each other in check so we don't go insane.

>>6769799
What's with all the "no otome gf" out of nowhere all of a sudden. Is it one guy? I thought we were mostly ignored as a subfashion.

>>6774170
>pulling buttons
>too big

>>6774100
It's big in other places but too tight around his moobs. You can tell by the way the shirt puckers in that one spot.
Happens with some of my blouses with my boobs sometimes and I just use a safety pin to fix it.

>>6774041
i personally don't think a small necklace that most people just reckon as a cute jewelry makes me look like a weeabo. A bit nerdy maybe to those who knows what it is from, but not weeabo.
I was thinking about white dot tights, but I wanted to try out something new, but since you're not the only one who have pointed out that it was too dark on the bottom I might just return to safe white tights.

I hate how half of the constructive criticism on here is actually a complete miss. A lot of people have no idea what they're doing,

>>6774194
a plastic jeweled heart with wings looks pretty costume-y, 's all I'm saying. Normal people see that IRL and perceive it as something you bought from Party City instead of the local jewelry department. And it doesn't have anything to do with the derpy-chan motif, so it just seems...unnecessary, like you're trying to prove your 'nerd cred' rather than trying to put together a good outfit.
I think you should go with the white dot tights, a pattern to break up the mostly solid outfit palette would be a good idea.
