/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Just the other day
>Be at mall with friends
>Standing around looking at stuff
>Black guy comes up to me says excuse me
>Look over, has the most weirdest smile I've ever seen
>"Aaa... uhh.. I like da costume... you look like one of them rosens.'
>"Oh, thanks... Uhh are you talking about that anime Rosen Maiden? I've never seen it."
>"No nooono you look like the girl from the RAISINS!"
>"What...'
>"You know the old raisin box she look like she from da old time"
>"Oh...............................thannks..."
>Turn around at my friend and he is trying so hard to contain his laughter.
>friend walks over to me
>"Did that really happen was that fake what"
>We both turn back around and he vanished, nowhere in sight

>>7481563
>from the RAISINS!
Ahahahahahaha! Oh fucking hell, anon! I dribbled my drink!

>Be on the way to school
>Wearing normalfag chiffon long sleeved blouse but with Krad's Phantom skirt, in black with silver print, no petticoat, and white tokyo bopper replicas
>There's a guy standing near the door
>He was listening to music on his headphones
>I stand up to alight
>I'm the only person alighting at this stop
>He starts singing some Japanese song out really loudly...in Japanese language of course
>The lyrics were like, boku no (....etc)
>He didn't approach me or follow me when I got off though
>I don't understand what happened

>>7481580
>alight

I have never ever heard that term used ever.
Where are you from, anon?

I'm wondering if that was a coincidence. Or maybe he just wanted to get your attention. It worked, sorta.

>>7481615
Not that anon but it's used here in the UK. Mostly in the posher bits though.

>>7481563
I'm like shaking and crying trying not to laugh out loud because I'm at work

>be in NY with friend, I am wearing lolita and she is not
>friend asked me to take her to the costume store (she's from out of state)
>okay sure
>we explore the entire store and in the end she wants to buy a few things
>stands back while waiting for her to pay
>a group of guys come my way and smile at me
>one of them says "i like your costume, very nice.'
>i look his way and just smile with a little nod
>'oh, she doesn't speak english just like in the animes!'

aight then.
ya know, i have given up the whole 'oh, it's not a costume explanation' when they compliment me and use the word 'costume.' i feel it's unnecessary unless they ask directly/ask for details.

>>7481667
>>'oh, she doesn't speak english just like in the animes!'

>>7481615
I actually live in the US, west coast. My friend thinks he had some sort of mental illness, it was kinda hard to convey how he was speaking through text.

>a few years ago
>cosplaying Sheik at small town con, standing in front of mall Arby's looking at menu for lunch
>business man in suit standing next to me looking at menu also
>looks at me, smiles, asks why there are tons of people in costume in this small-town mall
>tell him about con across the street
>he laughs
>"I wish I could be in costume at work"
>"but all I can get away with is this Spongebob tie"
>shows Spongebob tie hidden in his suit, winks, orders his food and goes back to work

It was such a funny exchange with a completely normal person.

>>7481836
Omg that's kind of adorable

>>7481836
That's really cute. I love this

>>7481563
I just lost my shit, my glasses fell off and I was crawling on the floor laughing my ass off. Thank you so much for that, I'll never forget that.

>walking home
>cross street in kind of a sketchy area to get to the train.
>see trampy girl
>trampy girl sees me
Ohgodno
>opens her mouth
You should come to work with me, darling! Heheheheharharteehee<3
>avoids further eye contact.
>to the train to the train to the traintraintrain.

I work in a very visible part of a large hospital, the same one I get treatment at, and when I pick up prescriptions on my days off I wear Lolita. I've had many people much higher ranking than me ask where I got my clothes because their teenage daughters would love them and they're so classy. I'm known in my workplace for my interesting fashion and am often asked if I recently bought any dresses.

>>7481918
And another time, while in cosplay...

>sitting in train
>business guy sees me and sits beside me
Oh no.
>asks..
Are you cosplaying?
>yes...
Is there a con going on?
>Yea it's downtown at the convention center blahblahblah
>We chat for a bit
>finds out he was into old school anime
>has no time cause of work
>mentions that he just quit his job
>mentions that he enjoyed our conversation
Hey, thanks for the chat, made me remember the great times I had before I took up that job.
Yea no problem at all
The company gave me this Starbucks card when I left, you can have it. Bye.
>aww yis, a coffee.

Later...

>goes to Starbucks.
>gets coffee.
How much is left on the card?
I can't get a balance, did a company give it to you?
Yea...
Oh then it's on the company's tab then!
>awwyisssssss
>never forget that business man.

Friday.

>Walking to bus stop
>Having a "me" day - dressed up in Gothic; Surface Spell, Clunky Shoes, Black curled hair.
>Two "gangster" white kids come up to me
>"Eeeyyyy' Gurl - You beautiful. Keep dat' up classy lady - we need mo' pretty out ere'."
>Thank them and they continue on their way
>Confused the whole day

Back where I used to live the same sorts would just throw things from cars at me.
Was a good confidence boost though.

>>7481946
Oh wow, it's so nice to see how awesome people can be. Dang, really though that just warms my heart.

>be me
>out in causal classic Lolita, wearing cream chiffon Krad Lanrete dress
>walk street with friend
>see some tough looking punk girl leaning on the wall
>brace myself for her comment
>she looks at me
>"Hey girl, nice dress! So cute! Have a beautiful day!"
>thank her, wish her a nice day too
>everything went better than expected

>>7482052
>>7481946
This thread is making me happy so far. Keep the stories coming.

>wear toned-down lolita everyday
>never heard a bad comment
To my face, anyway.

>>7482061
Describe toned down lolita

>>7482057
More happy stories for you? Here it goes.

>be me
>wear casual Lolita to Uni sometimes

>be me
>on a forum, posting some of my outfits
>suddenly, a girl messages me
>"Hey Anon, I recognize you!! Do you go to x University, and had the Literatue Clss with Prof. y?"
>mfw she was correct
>ask her how she recognized me
>"From your clothes! I always thought they were so cute when I saw you during the class!"

>we started writing about Lolita
>mfw she wanted to be a Lolita too
>mfw I now try help her with were to shop, sic rules, looking for the best deals ecetera
>mfw I hope I might become a kawaii Sempai

I was so glad she messaged me! Unfortunately we do not share classes anymore. But I hope to get to know her better, be able to help her with Lolita and I hope to make friends with her!

>>7482065
Not that anon, but it's pretty much my daily wear:
>lolita skirt or JSK (either no print or a simpler one)
>petti with small poof
>jersey cutsew or plain turtleneck
>cute cardigan
>plain tights/OTKs with small motifs
>tea parties, oxfords or mary janes
>small headbow/single flower/headband

Surprisingly goes unnoticed most of the time, the worst reaction I got while in casual was snickering from teens...

>>7482065
Tops or cutsews that aren't too frilly nor high-collared, skirts in either solid colors or prints that aren't too child-like, tea party shoes or something equally simple, no wig, natural make up, normal sized head accessory, and so on?

>>7481667
I get "Oh she doesn't speak [native language] a lot, too, especially when I'm wearing lolita. Even when I say hello back! Apparently weird clothes = foreigner to many people. Even though all the 'foreigners' I know mostly wear jeans, hoodies and Tshirts.

Another happy story for the pile.

>be me, 24 and a sweet lolita
>live in tiny rural town famous for its ice cream and "Southern charm" whatever that means
>the only lolita in the entire town
>can wear whatever i want to work so i wear lolita when the weather's nice
>becoming well-known to the locals
>spreads knowledge and awareness of the fashion whenever possible
>local girl wants to be a lolita too
>I give her tips and show her where to shop, etc
>heckyea.jpg

I thought it was a pain at first, always clarifying that "noooo it's not a costume etc" but now I feel like telling people about the fashion is my mission. Maybe one day the "costume" questions and comments will stop completely.

My favorite reactions so far:
>"Your dress is absolutely fabulous."
>little boy in the 8-10 age range asks me to take selfie with him
>"Are you modeling nearby?"

Lolita, man. It's confidence-boosting armor.

>lunch break, heading back to work
>serious looking middle aged man stops me
>"why are you dressed like that?"
> I reply "they let me dress weird to work, so why not?"
>"that's not weird, it's beautiful! You look nice!"

I can't remember a negative experience so far, it seems to be a pretty positive thing even after 5+ years of wearing lolita. Bracing for the day something bad happens though...

>>7482075
you got the better end of it
>go out in fairy kei
>talking with people
>some girl keeps staring at me
>"I recognize you from /cgl/"
oh god
>"you're typing style is easy to spot, I enjoy your drama, and know the people you're talking about"
oh shit
>"can't believe ___ would do those things though"
uh-huh
>everyone is looking at us
>I was just outed for being a catty bitch on 4chan
>mfw

>>7482129
to clarify, I posted in a couple of drawthreads and old OOTD threads, she said she recognized me from there.

>>7481836
that's the cutest thing I have ever read

>>7482116
>It's confidence-boosting armor.
tears in my eyes ;-;
strewth.

I have no incredibly interesting stories but people in my area are generally open-minded/nice, so I've never really heard any negative comments, only positive/neutral whenever wearing jfash.

>wear himekaji downtown for a shoot with a friend
>take a break in the cafe/bakery for dessert
>cheerful looking middle-aged man comes up to us
>says some along the lines of
"Oh you look so dressed up! Is this a shooting for a movie or something?"

Kinda funny that the first thing he thought was movie, but it was still pretty nice.

>>7481933
That's awesome anon! That would be the cutest thing if one of their teenage daughters got into lolita and you taught them how to loli.

>>7481947
That's so sweet anon! As much as I love reading horror stories, I love all these sweet ones in the thread...

>>7481947
>>7482052
>>7482116
Nnnnnf, dat kindness~

>hanging out at a con attached to a high-end mall
>walking through the mall to grab a bite to eat
>in cosplay (Franziska von Karma)
>run into a gaggle of well-dressed old ladies, see them apprising me
>Oh darling, you look lovely! What is all this? Is this a big party? It's so great to see young people so lively (etc)
>t-thank you
>desperately trying to hide my prop (a whip) behind my back so I don't look like a dominatrix

>>7482185
>Franziska von Karma
>desperately trying to hide my prop (a whip) behind my back so I don't look like a dominatrix
amazing

>dressed in pony cosplay a couple years ago, wasn't a big hit at the anime con because pony, but worked really hard on the costume
>sitting in the mall for lunch eating with friends
>friends get up to go to the bathroom, continue eating alone
>lady walks up to me
>"excuse me, but my daughter really wanted to ask you something"
>they're clearly just there for lunch, not for a con
>very little girl asks if I'm Pinkie Pie
>she and her sister are goddamn ecstatic
>offer to take a picture, kids' minds are blown
>girls are happy as hell and and walk away singing a Pinkie song

I could get all the shit in the world from ponyhaters and nothing would ruin that moment for me. It was so sweet. I'm not part of the fandom anymore, but it makes me grateful I once was.

>>7482129
That's what you get

>>7482185
Haha, I love her from Phoenix wright. Those old ladies rock

>>7482226
wouldn't that apply to you as well?
or anyone here for that matter?
we don't come to /cgl/ to "just" talk about clothes.

>>7482233
i dont even like clothes

>>7482233
Some people do

>Daily lolita
>Commuting to work
>Older ladies walk by, one comes closer
>"Who ARE you?" *big smile, open wonder on this lady's face*
>Oh... I-I'm no one.jpg
>"You're just you. Wonderful. You look just like a doll."
>They go off smiling and talking about my outfit.

Went home feeling very warm and fuzzy that day.

>>7482233

That answer is appropriate. She got what she got for being too obvious of a bitch here. You sound defensive.

I finally got a really nice petticoat. Classical puppets, super huge. I love the poof. Mom thinks its too much and so when I walk past her or if she looks at my coord, she has to literally do her best to try flipping it up like it's indecent. It's uncomfortable as fuck.

>>7482129
Damn. That's worthy of some kind of autism award right there.

I feel a need to tell this story just so it makes a point that some of us dont know how to address lolitas

>Am a fairly attractive man from what im told
>At a rather large con in Dallas where my wife is cosplaying as Carol from WD
>Shes off prattling away about boots with some militant anime cosplayer when i spot a dazzling lolita wearing a very classical dress, a purple version of the yellow dress from tarzan
>She smiles at me at i give a little wave and.a.thumbs up as she passes
>Rather portly fellow suddenly lurches into view
>goes to ask for a picture but nerves get the better of him and he launches into a frustrated stutter
>i have a worried look on my face
>lolita screws her face up in horror as the kid panics and grips her corset like outter piece on her hip
>Was trying to keep her from running
>wife and other chick turn around and wife lets out a confused "what the fuuuuuck..."
>the kid has actually wet himself
>lolita shrieks and jumps away
>kid passes out

Fucking train wreck

>>7482362
we were asked what /cgl/ was and she explained it.
big social no-no to say "hey, I go on 4chan"
but she had no problem doing it.

I know she's reading it too.
thanks for making me feel awkward, damn.

>>7482353
Next time she does that, let rip the rankest, loudest fart you can possibly muster. Do that every time she does it and train her like a dog to fear the negative reaction.

>Dressed in casual sweet lolita, so head to toe pink
>Go see Cap America movie the day it comes out
>Everyone in the theater is saving seats for groups
>Get two seats near a guy holding half a row
>His friends call saying they're late
>"Yo dawg, if you were going to be late I would've let the pretty lady sit in those seats."
>mfw I realize the pretty lady is me

>>7482379
IF I COULD FART ON DEMAND...

>four of us, girls night deal so no boyfriends with us
>at theme park ranging classic to OTT sweet
>super kawaii actually but I digress
>off the walkway checking phones trying to navigate the park, etc, standing in a circle facing each other and chatting
>suddenly shadow
>6'3ish fat guy age 50someodd on one side of me hovering over our tiniest group member
>his buddy on the other side flanking me
>leaning over us start aggressively asking questions
>other girl says something like "go away we don't want to talk to you"
>dude gets mad as fuck
>starts calling us cunts
>throws insults regarding lack of boyfriend and lack of sex, more names like bitch, etc
>we are stunned but recover quick
>yell back at him
>mfw his wife covers the ~7 year old daughter's ears and scolds us for fucking swearing
>bitch control your jackass husband

Had my phone not been downloading a map and running low on battery, I'd have taken a photo. Next time we all agreed to get security involved.

It was honestly kind of surreal, like he crawled out of the internet.

Same day, we got photo requests with kids and compliments on the outfit so typically it's a positive reaction but ugh that was an outlier of an experience.

>in hospital waiting room waiting for appointment
>wearing matchy-matchy honeycake coord
>man in dirty blue overalls covered in white paint approaches
>looks nervous and shy
>"excuse me can I ask you about your outfit?"
>slight creep vibe from him but roll with it and explain lolita
>"do you make these dresses yourself?"
>say I don't but some people do
>reaches into pocket and takes out business card
>hands it over
>"look at my website and maybe drop me an email, I'd like to know more"
>he scuttles off
>check website out on phone
>mfw he's a tailor in the local area
>mfw he's really good at his job and cheap

>>7482384

The key is not to fart on demand, but to hold on demand and let go on demand. A diet high in beans and (if lactose intolerant) milk should give you enough ammo.

Please tell me you commisioned something from him

>>7482383
That gif is amazing. And aw, that's a cute story, anon

>>7482353
Say something and stop being a door mat

>>7482384
>>7482408
Exactly. A diet like this, combined with practise, makes this a lot easier than you think it will be. You can also massage your stomach to literally push gas out of yourself.

I'd even suggest deliberately dressing in lolita around her when you feel a fart coming on. Engineer the situation.

captcha: his iolbutt

>>7482410
I'm actually in the process of commissioning a blouse from him.

He's looking to build a portfolio of work and thought that the challenge of the construction of a lolita dress would be a good addition to it.

>>7482407
What's the webpage?

>>7482419
Excellent

>>7482407
Can you sew though? It kind of sounds like he might be offering you a job! If it is a job and you don't sew, if any of the girls in your comm do, maybe you could recommend them to him!

>>7482411
iirc the gif is from a show where they made random parts of a room out of chocolate and had a load of businessmen try to find each item, but they could only use their mouths.
Quite possibly the definition of euphoria.

>>7481632
>alight
What does it mean

>>7482578
Pull up, arrive at.

>>7482366
>the kid has actually wet himself
what in the fuck, i have NEVER heard an awkward weeb encounter story with that particular ending, wow

>>7482517
I seriously need to see this. Sometimes I love Japan.

>>7482578
Step off, get off. You alight from a train when you reach your station

>>7482366

>>7482211
ugh so sweet and heartwarming i love it

>>7482415
...I must learn to do this.

>>7481947
That's really cute! It's nice when you get compliments from people you wouldn't expect it from!

>>7482129
Oh god. I'm so sorry. I know this story is about me. I'm such an awkward mess. And I never got around to messaging you on FB to hang out. I'm really sorry I made you feel so awkward and I don't know why I thought it was a good idea to mention cgl... I guess because you kept sort of bringing it up (not by name) and I wanted to feel involved in the conversation...

>>7481563
I should not be in the library right now

>>7483198
ah, its ok.
I guess part of my awkwardness was
"oh god she recognizes me yet doesn't talk to me, she must hate me"
"oh god"
"spaghetti"
It was fun though, but man, there was marinara.

and its my fault for bringing it up, I didn't know what else to talk about. hadn't been out for a while

>>7482415
>deliberately dressing in lolita around her when you feel a fart coming on
this needs to be /cgl/'s motto

Since I dress very casually, I can usually avoid attention and if I get any, it's positive. But my favourite interactions are with my school's security guard team, who have collectively complimented me so much that they're like a fan club.
> one security guard always compliments my bag and shoes
> another calls me "baby doll" and greets me enthusiastically whenever I walk in. She's a small Asian lady so it's not as weird as it sounds.
> another one compliments me on how put together I look
> one guy asks if I was dressed from an anime and when I told him it was just for everyday, he said it was great and complimented my "fit"

Thanks, security guards!

This is kinda sad
>Be at anime convention

Pic related (other girl)

Nothing too bad. I've got the whole "it's not Halloween" thing. The best one was when I preschooler started pointing at me and screaming "IT'S A VAMPIRE IT'S A VAMPIRE!" That gave me the chuckles for days.

>>7483831
I know this might come as a shock to you, but you can get in touch with people through email. Not just Facebook.
Cool made up story.

>>7483833
I love the it's not Halloween responses. Like, they have nothing creative at all to come up with. And how do they even expect you to react?

>>7483838
not made up, i'm that guy in the pic. I got other pics to prove it.

>>7483845
>I'm that guy in the pic

Timestamp with face. Now.

>>7483846

I got a few more if you still don't believe me

>>7483850

Timestamp with face. Now.

>>7483845
even if it is true, the first didn't owe you shit. really? I mean you think she owes you a bj or a date bc you happen to wear the same cosplay, what kind of betafag are you?

also, I call bullshit on the second girl as girl's don't suck dicks for nothing so either you paid her or took her out first.

>2/10 got me to respond

>>7483850
You're one ugly mofo

>>7483850
this isn't proof, show her sucking your dick or gtfo

>>7483833
Butttttttt there was this one time, I don't call it a reaction more of bullying. Some bitch purposely spilled coffee on me at a local Starbucks. I see her around town a lot and then I remembered recently that she bullied me in high school and must have recognized me but I didn't recognize her. She was the worst and still probably is the worst. The good thing is that it was a bodyline dress and the poofiness of my petti deflected most of the coffee on the ground. Fuck you Diana, you sandy count.

>>7483845
Unless you've got pics of her blowin you (with your face visible to boot), nobody's buyin that little fantasy

BTW it's spelled "could've", not "could of", you ugly fuck

>>7483854

>>7483857
>count

I mean CUNT omg lol

>>7483833
I've got "it's not Halloween" from a guy in a toga on a train with others in toga when I was wearing toned down Kuro.

>>7483763
>"Can I have it anyway?"
Determination.

>>7483831
Even if this was real, if you fail to get her phone number, that's your own goddamn fault.

>>7483866

Jfc I think I remember you telling us that story last year. Screw that bitch. That's horrible. You need to find her car or something of hers and secretly get someone to vandalize it. Or... Actually do not listen to me and ignore her existence. She probably has nothing going for her in life.

Can't you ask customers like that to leave?

Like, they're being disruptive to other customers and potentially causing property damage and injury. You should be able to ask them to leave, right?

I'm not even a lolita but I cringe so fucking much when I'm at the mall and see girls wearing lolita in public. It is never done right. They never have a petti and always are stretching the dress nearly to its limits. I was with my boyfriend there last weekend and saw a herd of overweight itas.

For what purpose? Have of these girls would look decent in street clothing that fits them. Why squeeze yourself into something that only a slender waif-like girl can pull off just to be random xDD?

>>7483952
>>7483957
oh, my kokoro

>>7482236
Do you cosplay NB?

>>7483965
Only if the manager/shift sees it to be a problem. I hate how non-confrontational we have to be since we deal with so many different people as it is and any situation can blow up to an extreme.

We have a squatter that's been an issue since I was hired a year ago, and whenever someone complains the manager tells them to "talk to corporate blah".

Here's a story to stay on-topic:
>Live in an area where we have a sizable Japanese population working at the plant here
>Running front
>Middle aged businessman looking like he's in a hurry
>"kohii"
>muster up something in broken weeb "medium alright?"
>Hand him his coffee
>Tells me in broken English that my bows are cute
>Drop spaghetti
>Tell him to have a nice day in Japanese
>Every time he comes in and I work mornings he makes my day a little better because he's just so damned nice and polite

>>7483970
Where do you live?

>Be sports jock but massive weeaboo.
>Other jock friends know I like anime.
>Big West Coast City has a pretty large number of lolitas.
>One day just hanging around. A cute lolita girl walks by.
>Walk up and compliment her outfit.
>Entire gang comes up behind me and starts singing that song "Uptown Girl".
>She's clearly embarrassed. Probably thinks we're making fun of her.

>She runs away.
If you're here, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. I just wanted to let you know how nice you looked that day!

>>7483991
>>Be sports jock but massive weeaboo.

my ladyboner.
Why couldn't I be that lolita

>>7483991
spic skin here

niggas would not stop giving me shit once they learned I was into cosplay

niggas had insults for days

I feel your pain

>>7483952
>>7483957
I love you, anon

>>7484004
It wasn't so bad since they already knew I was into dumb things like acepella from the very start. Are your homeboys still talking down on you though?

>>7484004
It wasn't so bad since they knew I was into dumb shit like acapella from the very start. Are your homeboys still talking down on you though? That's not okay!

>>7483969
Damn, why are people just vanilla cunts? It's like "oh no, she's wearing something I'm not familiar with." It makes me sad to hear these stories. No matter what I'm wearing, I can talk to people. Heck, on the metro going to a cosplay meet, an old woman say next to me on purpose while I wore pic related and then discussed how she owned her own clothing store in South America. It was awesome. She told she me people need to dress up . Haha

>>7484033
Urm, this pic related. I was in Bowser

>>7484038
That Luigi reminds me of some celebrity. I can't put my finger on it though.

>slam dunk

>>7484021

they still give me shit every now and then, but they're my niggas. I can't stay upset at them.

I don't blame them.

I've come to the conclusion that I've heavy with that escapism, and they're still stuck with the trap mindset we grew up in

you know what they say.

you can leave the trap
but the trap won't leave you

>>7484021
>acapella
>dumb
Surely you jest.

>>7484039
That's my cosplay bud. I think I've told him he looks sorta like that annoying dude from George Romaro's Rise of the dead.

>>7484048
Shit, that got really heavy at the end.
Anyway, if you're that tight with them then I guess it's just something your group does. For them I would think that characteristic about you is just another thing to poke fun at, you know what I mean? I'm sure your other friends have parts about em that get made fun of too, but it's all in good fun yeah? They'll still always have your back.

>>7484050
It's my absolute guilty pleasure.

Wow his im at work I can't control my cawking

In case anyone remembers the old thread, a little research yielded self defense holsters for lolitas. There are both breast, corset, and shoulder holsters that can be hidden under garb and all you have to do is have a sneaky little slit that you can shove your hand into. They recommend a hammerless revolver with a snub nose or other CC weapons

What are you talking abou-
>omg it moves

The lady who runs the emporium I buy most of my trims, spray paint and such at has gotten to know me really well to the point where she'll give me twice as many buttons or throw an extra metre of bias tape on for free. She's really curious about what I do, she knows I make costumes and she has told me she really wants to see them. It's really nice and she laughs when I buy sequined trims because I've told her to tell me off when I buy them because I shouldn't be using them.

Stark contrast from one of the local fabric stores run by an old lady who asked me 3 times if I knew what I was doing and if I really wanted sports uniform fabric when I went in to grab fabric from an Inazuma Eleven cosplay. Generally when someone is buying sports knit and responds to your questions with "Yes, I'm making a soccer uniform" and "I'd hope I know what I'm doing, I've been making costumes for 6 years now", you don't put off your customers by being a cunt and repeating the question.

>>7484420
I'm glad you found a nice person who is genuinely interested in helping someone out.
I get into spots where I have literally no idea how to explain cosplay to normal fags, so I just bring up renn faires, larping and sci fi. They just get it later on.

>>7483952
>>7483957
So fuckin kawaii, thanks for drawing. The wig is eerily close to the one I was wearing on the day as well, 2spooky.

>>7484921

oof, that looks uncomfortable.

also, did she notice you taking this picture?

>>7484931
Probably, I wasn't too sly about it and was giggling like an idiot. Even if she did, she didn't say anything. Oh well I guess.

>>7482129
If you are who I think you are, this was st the fair, right?

>>7484564
>>7484891
Or a stalker. You'll never know.

But nah I just like drawing things from the lolita in public threads. Like I drew this one for the aquarium story one or two threads ago.

>>7485039
aww yiss

>>7484921
Haha wow. Good job, anon. Typical mall trash

>>7485039
I love your work, it warms me so.
>>7485050
I remember this, thanks so much for posting it again.
You really know how to pick someone up when they're down

>>7483970
I'm not a lolita either, but I don't understand why everyone says the only lolitas they see in public are fat itas. To date I have seen 4 girls in lolita in public. Two Innocent World-ish girls when I went to San Fransisco State, (one of my friends was like, "I keep seeing girls dressed like dolls" and seemed kind of in awe.) One girl in toned down gothic on the bus, and one girl in Moite on halloween. I really wanted to tell the last girl how much I liked her outfit, but I didn't really have a chance. She had this look on her face that I'm sure get when I'm wearing something weird, like I'm just going to be confident and hold my head up and not give a fuck and put on a bitch face. She was definitely not ita though.

Anyway, just a normalfag stopping by to tell you what the nicer people are actually thinking. You guys are beautiful.

>>7484089

Yeah, you drink that big gulp

>>7485165
I loved it so much I used it as my facebook profile pic. My friends were like "wuuuuut" and one was like "yeaaah". Aww yus, seagull detected.

>>7482353
I had a stoner friend when I was in high school who LOVED my lolita, but she had this odd touching fixation when high and would begin flipping my skirt up to play with the lace on my petti. Super awkward when we were out somewhere as it was fairly sheer.

>>7483655
So did I! It made the story pretty great though, imagining anon dressed as shrek getting some Arby's, lol.

>>7484921
I'd take seeing a hot topic ita over her ass hanging out of those shorts.

Time to give up those big gulps lady.

it was sorta cute. wasn't sure how stoners would react to lolita, but now i know.

>>7485039
I remember that one thread with the stripper who became real good friends with a lolita. That was bittersweet and adorable at the same time.

>>7484047

I've also got some little tokyo stories

>go to LT in sweet lolita.

>line for booth but no line for sushi bar.
>other customers don't know you can walk up to sushi bar and sit down if there is space.

>I walk up to sushi bar and sit down and immediately start ordering in Japanese.
>other customers look even more confused and are upset that I am getting served before them.
>staff are extremely nice as always and state that they even asked everyone if anyone wanted to eat at the sushi bar.
>I enjoy a wonderful lunch.

I've gone to that restaurant so many times now the people there are starting to remember me.

>tfw you will never wear lolita

>Start stuttering my apology
>He's about to walk away when he looks me up and down

>Don't know what's going on
>Stare at my hand and for some reason I've been doing some sort of gangster pound with this guy this entire time he's trying to convince me to go to his party

I managed to escape from him with a lame excuse, but the hand shake/pound movement was super awkward. It was like a slap, cup and pound.

Oh yeah, I have one more, but this guy has hit on me a total of 5 times and only once I was in lolita. I have no idea who he is, and he can never remember me, but he's a huge ass.

>be in gothic coord waiting for my friend outside of the subway station
>super emo douche walks up to me
>wearing more eyeliner than a french prostitute
>"Are you a sexy librarian because you look like a sexy librarian."

>"Do you listen to 30 Seconds to Mars or The Used? You would totally love my band. Give me your number and we can hang out later tonight."
>Tell him no and I'm waiting for someone
>He doesn't piss off until my friend comes by

Seriously, if you live in Toronto and this guy hits on anything that walks. I've watched him hit on other girls and he's tried flirting with a few of my coworkers. I've seen him so many times, but I still have no clue who he is.

>>7485504
You have a point... Like, I wouldn't get all tumblr enraged if a good friend called me "ho" as a joke, but based on her post it seems like they regularly call her bitch/ho which isn't cool in my book

>>7485507
Damn girl, you should have gone to his party! You could've classy-ied the place up! It would have been one hell of a story.

Forever laughing at the thought of a poor lolita randomly doing gangster handshakes.

>>7485540
I don't know why, but black men love lolita.
A black guy came up to me once and asked me directions to the intersection that he was currently on. He admitted that he wasn't lost and just wanted to talk to my frilly self.

>>7482185
NO YOU FOOLISHLY FOOLOSH FOOLS ITS COSPLAY

>>7485553
Black men just love white girls. Face it

>>7482185
>desperately trying to hide my prop (a whip) behind my back so I don't look like a dominatrix
fucking hilarious tho

>>7485553
Ghetto black girls love the fuck out of AP too. I used to live in the city, take the subway and walk everywhere. Whenever I was in downtown areas girls that you'd least expect would say things like "Ooh look at that white girl rockin dat pastel pretty princess shit I gotta get me dat, it's hella fine" it got to the point where certain girls would call me sherbert and greet me when I walked by. I wore fruits parlor once and this girl came up to me and said "Damn, you wearin that designer shit lil mama got on some years n u got da accessories too, what is that like $2000 I wish I could buy that sugar girl asian doll clothes."

It was a very interesting experience.

This happened to me last Saturday
>At a buffet getting food
>A roughneck guy (oil field worker) asks why I'm all dressed up and is there any special occasion
>Tell him no not really
>He asks "ah just because" and I say yeah
>Follows up with "That's what I'm talking about" and says it looks nice

Wouldn't think a guy like that would think lolita looked nice.

>Be at mall about to go eat with some friends.
>A man walks up to me and says that his daughter loves my dress and asked if she could have a picture with me
>I say sure and walk over to meet the little girl
>She's gushing over my dress and wants to wear them too
>Her mom says the outfit is cute as well
>Take a picture with the little girl, say my goodbyes and walk back over to my friends so we can go eat

Sometimes children are the best.

>>7485571
Wow, that's cool someone recognized the brand from that, though!

>>7485575
Much nicer to see a girl in a pretty dress instead of the typical low cut tops, short shorts, or jeans that barely cover buttcracks.

Its the same with guys. If a guy's dressed up just a bit people notice. Slacks, nice shoes, a button shirt and maybe a blazer or sweater and it looks much better then jeans+t-shirt.

>>7485571
Black people love loud and/or cute fashions for some reason, usually overlapping with all sorts of asian street fashions. Whenever I see a girl around here wearing really cute/loud/unusual clothes, they're either asian or black.

>>7485393
oh my god I remember that
didn't she work in a fabric shop?

>>7485632
I remember a story of a fabric shop employee who met a big burly Hell's Angels looking dude who was always in the store looking for sequins and sparkly shit. Turns out his wife made stripper costumes or something.
Could you be misremembering things or this a completely different story? I kind of hope so, the more cute stories the better.

>>7485507
>"Do you listen to 30 Seconds to Mars or The Used?"
I'm puking

>>7485647
Those are two different stories. The other one was a druggie that called herself a "DIY Stripper" and made tassels and things.

>>7485479

I'm loving all the cute stories! Unfortunately I only have this, which happened a few days ago.

>wearing very simple IW coord, black JSK with off-white blouse, tiny black hairbow and no wig
>crying in public for reasons I'd rather not go into
>tucked myself away in a corner so as to minimize bother for anyone else while boyfriend consoles me
>still obvious I'm upset because ugly sobbing
>middle-aged man walks past, looks me up and down, and shrieks:
>"IT'S NOT HALLOWEEN! HUEHUEHEUUHEUE"
>continues walking with smug look on his face

I don't understand what's wrong with people sometimes. Once he realized that other people were giving him the stinkeye rather than applauding his razor-sharp wit, he got very huffy and glared at me once more before speedwalking away. It was all I could do to keep my boyfriend from confronting him and causing even more of a scene.

>>7485769
>speedwalking away
Well for one, he had a stickup his bum otherwise he'd run away.
I don't get it either, sometimes people just have spastic moments and vomit out words.

>>7484921
I'M GLAD OTHER PEOPLE DO THIS! We had a meet at a museum recently and a few people kept trying to take pics; this one guy sitting on a bench was super obvious about it, so I stopped and took a super obvious pic of him back, and the girl next to him started laughing.

>>7485571
I was at a museum meet and the mostly white patrons were all confused by our group of lolitas, and some of them were side-eyeing us. But the mostly black female security guards loved our outfits and asked us tons of questions and told us we were adorable. It was great.

Luckily my friend arrived after a few minutes of waiting, I regret not taking actual pictures of the group although my phone was a crappy flip phone that got replaced a few months later so eh.

Does anyone have the link to that tumblr that catalogs these stories? Kinda what /fit/ does for fps with loveandcompassionforall.

>>7486383
What I want to know is, what was that tumblr where lolitas could post pictures they took of people who took pictures of them? There was a tumblr like that, right?

>>7485150
Wouldnt take much to modify a holster. Many of rhem are made kf a soft mesh or a plastic shell with a cloth snug. I dont see why anyone couldnt pick up a needle and make them fancy. I have one woman make her strap for the waist and chest out of that springy lace material usually used on garders

But in terms of lolita, it wouldn't make much sense because it'd be so hard to reach underneath a blouse (which is probably tucked into a JSK or skirt). It'd makes way more sense to conceal a weapon underneath a skirt; there's so much room under there.

I really wanted to do that too, but now I feel really awkward because I don't want to copy you.

>>7486503
I actually made a mock up to combat clothes layer issues. There is a small slit that leads to the handle of the fire arm. The harsness would lay just below the outtermost layer and the channel would funnel your had straight to it. The second was a split along the ribs to a shoulder holster. This required the petticoat to be tacked into place or a set of clips to keep the channel clear and connected. Velcro attached at the very top and bottom of the slit kept things together

>>7486509
imo, there's always room for cute drawings of lolita stories

Good deeds never go unpunished.

>>7486428
That looks like a great way to take off a tit.

A thigh holster would be much better when wearing a dress, easier to get to, you wouldn't have to undo all your frills to get to it.

>>7486566
you should have posted the photo anyway, it could have been funny.

>>7486566
You should have head motioned behind her so she'd realize.

>>7486571
Military-sama explained that we would fit small pockets or paths in our outfits. In past threads he gave a thumbs down to thigh holsters due to weapons getting caught and it makes you "compromise posture", allowing kicks to the face.

>>7486580
To follow up on this anon, if you are attacked, pushed, or even tackled it could expose your weapon to the assailant and allow him to have the opportunity to seize your objective. Id also like to point out thazlt if struck in the face, you are less likely to fall with a chest, rib, or purse holster than having to bend down to grab your weapon. With repitition you could pull out a hammer less revolver as easily as a tubenof lipstick

>>7486546

>holster talk
>quickdraw theories in a self-defense scenario
you wot m8
/k/osplayer here. the best way to defend yourself is to eliminate all variables and avoid creating variables at all costs, aka run the fuck away.

engaging in a conflict introduces a variable because you have no guarantee that you'll come out unscathed. drawing your weapon introduces a variable because you have no guarantee that you won't have it confiscated by the assailant. carrying a concealed weapon introduces a variable because you have no guarantee that the, given the initiative, the assailant won't discover the weapon and utilize it himself.

the only winning move is literally not to play. swift kick in the groin and run. seek help. draw your weapon only if the situation couldn't possibly get worse.

>>7486656
As a military police officer, i assure you, a barrel will cease all variables. If an assailant still presses the attack after Shout and Show, you eliminate the threat.

I believe that would be enough

Perhaps the best course of action is to take a selfie.
She gets to take a photo of the back of your head, you get to hang a beautiful picture of your face with lolita and Secret Photographer in the background.

I tried to answer this earlier but phone got me flagged as spam.
Personally I would skip the under-clothes holster completely and go for a purse holster. They do make conceal-carrry specific handbags with built in easy to reach holsters, though they aren't very loliable (usually look like designer leather). You can get holsters that fit into your own bag though, which I think would be far easier and more practical than trying to reach through layers of fluff and fabric or trying to yank your blouse up in a situation. You can pretty easily switch it between bags too.
Granted I also prefer to carry a larger handgun than is recommended for conceal carry. I'm a better shot with a .9 than a .22 and if I'm in a situation where its necessary to shoot, it is shoot to kill.

Funniest shit I saw all day, took a picture, but it turned out really dark and grainy. I should have gotten closer to take a better picture, but I was too busy laughing.

even armybros were weaboo's before enlisting. They just ain't allowed to show it most of the time.

>>7486428
Practical and easy to conceal just make sure you don't use a gun with a hammer like in the picture.

>>7486433
This is positively boner inducing and very practical but rather hard to conceal.

>>7486483
Looks cool but it might be a bit hard to get it out.

>>7482129
At AX last year, someone came up to me and told me they recognized me from cgl. What's worse is I was standing next to one of my friends when he said it I'm standing there awkwardly fidgeting and my friend (bless her soul, she didnt know what he was talking about. Guess she didnt know what cgl was?) tells him he's being creepy, grabs my arm and pulls me away.

I had free coffee for about half a year. I guess the company caught on a canceled it or something. I didn't abuse it, I wanted to make this card last as long as I can...

Man, if that actually happened, I won't know what I'd even do...

I'm not lolita but I dress himekaji. This took place yesterday at the mall when I went with a visiting relative.

The last girl sounds a little weebish. I mean, the outfit you described MIGHT be able to be mistaken for toned down sweet lolita, but gothic lolita? Still nice though.

i was really nervous but by the end i was very happy! it'd been such a long time since i wore lolita due to rl busyness so it was a nice sort of welcome back haha.

I usually get lots of weird looks and polite compliment or curious questions, but that's the only time someone's started hollering at me and my friends from, like, a mile away.

>>7484955
yes, I don't get too into specifics for reasons you know of course.
I had fun I just thought you hated me hence my awkward feelings about it like I said here:
>>7483275

>>7485568
>Black men just love white girls
Implying that all lolitas in these stories are white.

Maybe they're tired of looking at hoes and Lolita done right is classy.

>>7485757
>I'll take being a strawberry any day
I wouldn't. Strawberry is also a term used for girls who sell sex for drugs. The lady seemed nice enough but I'd be careful when someone calls you that. It can very easily become an insult.

> be in sweet lolita
> walk to the ice cream parlor to meet a friend
> 3 really good looking guys outside of the pub stop me

Definitely a positive first lolita experience!

>>7488960
why are you a "good girl"? because you dont drink or because you like ice cream? this story sounds so made up, it's not even funny. and they sounded like hidden creeps the way they were talking to you.
