nitpicking your nitpick

>different shades of gold
what are analagous colours, anon

>need a gold bag to balance the shoes
because people don't put their bags down someplace and take photos at another part of the venue

>the socks should be sax to balance the bolero/blouse
no, she should just swop out for a white top instead

>why the wrist cuffs/ankle socks when she already has OTKs on
because extra frilly frills around ankles are kawaii anon.

i feel that this lavender and pink on the JSK is so...soft, translucent and airy...but the mint blouse makes me think of heavy rock-hard candy, so something soft, airy and lightweight would be better for the blouse/bolero.

the differences in tones of gold wasn't throwing the outit off-balance. the mood and feel of the blouse was too different from the rest of her outfit. if anything, i would also rid off all hard-plastic accessories. like the teacup ring. think cotton candy...no, a very celestial, royal, fairy-like version of cotton candy. that's the mood the print+dress is trying to give.

>>7608799
>>7608799
you are right, the socks are out of place. the boots should stay, they're a cute addition. she shouldn't try to draw/shade in eyebags, it just makes her look old, drugged and tired. still, i think it's the pose/angle more so than weird makeup.

also can't tell what is that black band around the wrist. but it currently looks very un-loli.

wrong, it would still look equally bad on a slim girl. that bonnet is too...unclassy. gold is a very tricky colour. too careless with the quality and level shine; gold will look cheap and tacky. gold is supposed to look rich, luxurious and classy...but here it looks flat, inexpensive and of toy-like. it looks like "peasantry yellow that is pretending to be gold." the gold was just thrown on without careful thought to bring out the richness of all other parts of the outfit.

aside from the unflattering animu fringe, she should
>use larger flowers on her bonnet to make her face look smaller
>in fact, a bonnet with a wider circumference would be good
>do something about her hair looking flat and slick (curls would be nice..)
>get rid of those things on her wrist
>something about her makeup doesn't look right, her face looks a bit pasty. she either has little to no foundation or her foundation isn't working for her
>get blusher, or go heavier on blushier

her choice of dress+underskirt is good, because it is light and flowy so it makes her feel less heavy...however, maybe it is her pose, maybe the dress is poorly constructed (looks like pierrot or boz to me but IDK), but the shoulder/bust area just doesn't sit right. or maybe she's stretching it too much. can't tell from this picture.

>>7608825
90% of the problem with this outfit is that she's not wearing clothes that fit. imagine that they DO fit, (just picture it in your heads ok)
>get plaid tartan-check whatever you call it stockings with blue as main colour
>leave the bag out of the photo
>replace messy thing on shoulder with a cute red velvet bow
>don't wear the other shirt that's under the dress, it sticks out weirdly around the collarbone area.

I feel that in order to have good fashion, you should find clothes that fit flatteringly. I'm not sure why most people are like "ohnoes people who look like they're exploding out of their clothes shouldn't be posted!"

There's a humongous chick who I think still dresses very well because she makes most of her own clothes and actually manages to make the cut flattering to herself. She's no looker, but I admire her because she works with what she has and instead of trying to fit into petite Japanese clothing, she makes her own way and puts her own spin without looking too tacky.

Classic example of a Lolita that read up ~the co-ordination rules~, followed everything to a T, but still doesn't look good. Why? Because she did not look and observe carefully.

>But she's all matchy matchy
>her reds match!!
>she only used the correct colours of red from her dress!!!

Anybody who says she "looks fine" is also blind. She's a radioactive blob of bright red. No matter how cute her face is, nobody's eyes feel comfortable looking at such a picture. The solution:

>don't use that bag and (assumed) wig
It just worsens the fact that the red is so powerful here
>If that is real hair and not wig, probably tie it up so doesn't kind of....melt into the silhouettes of the dress. Curled twintails would be great.
>don't take pictures with light coloured background
>have other colours - green or blue - in the background
>Go borrow some coloured soft toys to hold or pose with. Green, blue, white soft toys would be good.

This should do the trick even if she doesn't have a white bag.

>have other colors - green or blue - in the background
This would only add to the radioactive mess she is. No need to add any more colors since you want to center all the attention on her.

>Go borrow some colored soft toys to hold or pose with. Green, blue, white soft toys would be good.
Holding toys is kind of a retarded idea and not even needed. And again with the green/blue that's equally not needed when you're working with a red dress.

She needs to balance the colors instead of adding more.

Do you even colour theory

You can't just shove a huge blob of saturated reds into the centre of a picture and not expect it to hurt the eye. You need to throw in mutes of the direct opposite colour (green) or a neighbour of that (blue)

Full red outfit + plain white background is just screaming: look at me!!! I'm all red!!! The whites take a back seat to have the red seem redder. You need to kill it with the opposite colour.

She should pose with some blurred out blue flowers with green leaves in the bg for example.

Just because she's thin and pretty doesn't make it a good coordinate. Did second anon even look at her outfit?

For starters, the wig is hideous and very costumey. It looks like it's been cut very poorly too (look at the longer bangs at the right side of her face). The underskirt looks out of place and is the wrong shape for the dress. The silhouette is all off. The shoes like like loafers that Japanese school girls wear. The necklace looks really cheap and is too blocky looking for the style of the dress. She's also wearing a cutesy bow ring with silver on it which clashes and her nails are all stubby and bitten. There are too many different shades of black too. Not jelly.

These days the long dresses with underskirts are very popular in Lolita and therefore it fits the silhouette, Lolita is an ever evolving fashion and this is a current trend. The necklace and the corset over the OP are nice but this is my personal opinion. The shoes are clearly not loafers but yes she could have worn nicer shoes you are right about that. Her hair is awful and doesn't fit the Lolita aesthetic at all, and it does look like a bad wig.

really? I think the only thing that doesn't work here is the blouse, a semi-sheer chiffony blue blouse with close sleeves or off white sleeveless/cap sleeve blouse with say, a blue country type cardigan would have worked.

This seems very natural kei/ pink house-ish to me anyway. I doubt it was ever intended to be conventional lolita.

I can see why you would get the natural kei impression. It does give off that vibe a bit. But I feel she was trying to make it more Russian inspired, as she stated it was 'classic lolita' and was attending a Russian cafe.

>>7612508
Like I said above, I don't feel it was intended to be natural kei, but Russian inspired.
Changing the blouse would help this coord tremendously. With the current blouse, the tights look out of place. But an ivory/off -white blouse and a light blue cardigan would work wonders.
Perhaps it's my bias towards lolita, but I think with those changes, it would looks adorable if she also had a larger Petti.

If you think using complementary colors will tone down a coord you need to get back to art school. Complementary colors make each other look brighter if anything using them will add to the radioactive red effect. Analogous colors or different values of the red will help tone it down. Like pink, for instance.

My nitpick more than any apparent misdemeanor is probably nitpick threads; yeah sure they do what they say on the tin but many of the complaints aren't problems per se.

No petti - many lolitas don't use petticoats or use a light one, especially when going for a more relaxed look. The only time it looks really odd is when it's a very voluminous skirt that looks misshapen without one, or if it's such an ott/grand type outfit and the lack of volume looks discordant.

Lolitas that are out shopping in Japan often don't wear them, it's just not polite to take up masses of space in crowded areas. Look through any G&L bible and it's full of people not wearing pettis in street snaps as well as in the brand ads. Not everyone that leaves the house in lolita is off to participate in a AP inspired photo shoot.

This is just the one I've touched on, there are many more. Don't get me started on those that don't seem to appreciate the difference between the intentional use of analogous color and color accents and say, naive use of warm and cool tones in the same outfit.

I don't want to shit up this thread any more, I've said my thing and I won't say it again. The sand has now been removed, all is at peace.

I feel you dawg. The problem with these threads is that the tone should be "this outfit is good and I'm sure it looked great in real life but photos can't capture things exactly as they are and maybe the color tone is off. Maybe in a perfect situation where the person has money and access to x item or maybe is just sitting around the house taking photos with unlimited time, maybe x thing could be changed" but instead it borders on offensive criticism without taking any of the context into account. I for one don't wear lolita to prance around the house for photos, I actually go places, eat, chat, walk for hours, sweat and then remember to take a photo at the end.

If I worried about making every single aspect of my outfit 100% I would never be able to leave the house nor post any photos online. At some point you say to yourself, this outfit isn't perfect but I still want to share it online because this is a fashion and we bond over outfits.

I feel like these threads are often times more like "I will get called out for posting this person in an ita thread, so I'm going to post it in this thread so we can make fun of them for not being perfect."

Most people are perfectly capable of nitpicking their own outfits and realizing what they need to improve upon and where they need to invest money into their wardrobe to make it more cohesive.

I agree with the original anon, but I think that it looks awkward/cunomfortable more in the physical sense. I'm 99% sure it's just the angle, but it looks like the bonnet is squishing her head and the bodice is super tight. (Probably from holding the dress out and leaning back.)

It's cute! Do you have a more frontal pic? I'm dubious on the triangle trim, but the shoes are lovely and the trim (underskirt?) looks like good quality lace. I'd exchange the black ribbon for a more quality bow, or a white lacy pussybow/jabot. Textured lace/knit tights in cream would add more interest to your legs as the current ones are a bit plain and a softer textured bow that contours to your head. The current one looks like it belongs on the dress and juts up awkwardly.

I think it's cute for a first coordinate but there's definitely room for improvement.

The blouse looks like it's just a typical office blouse from what I can see and looks to have a pointy collar which is a no-no. The ribbon on it is a nice idea but it looks very low quality. The colour of the wig is a bit strange and looks a bit cosplayish. Your stockings look like they're ivory while everything else is stark white which is not good. I personally like black shoes with the red and white as it makes me think of old school coordinates from the early 2000s, but something about them is off. I think it's the weird lines on them and the fact that they look a bit greyish? You could also do with a couple of accessories like a bracelet or a ring. Hope this helps. You look very cute from what I can see and I'm sure you'll improve a lot. Where is the dress from by the way?

You came here for concrit? That's kinda brave.

Anyway, this is pretty great for a first co-ord. I think the following things would improve it further however:

The wig(?) is a little lank looking and looks slightly cosplay-ish because of this. A hairstyle with more volume and/or a little wave or curl would be better.

The neck ribbon is a nice idea but looks a little thin and floppy, a more substantial, nicer quality ribbon in velvet or low sheen satin would be even better. You could then tie a bigger, neater bow too.

I see you matched the shoes with the neck ribbon but I personally think that slightly more elegant dark brown shoes would be a better compliment to the wine red, you could then make the neck ribbon the same shade.

With these minor nitpicks addressed, I think you would have a really lovely simple, clean and crisp looking casual-ish classic looking co-ord.

You could always try a more detailed and elaborate blouse and leg-wear for a different, dressier look - then add other slightly fancier accessories to pull it all together.

Thanks for the advice, can I ask why pointed collars aren't really suitable for lolita? But yes it is pointed so ill get round to buying a different one!

Well I think it's the fasted way to improve! I'm not an expert an I do want to learn more so nitpick it is.
As I said above it is a cosplay wig so I will probably invest in more everyday use/lolita wigs. Thanks for suggesting types of ribbon as well! Super helpful and will keep that in mind!

now I can see the hair bow, I agree with CG that it sticks out oddly, it would look less strange nestled in a curly more voluminous wig but a bow meant for your hair/bow hairband would be the best bet.

I wouldn't normally say this but I think for once you probably have too much petti(!) - it's kinda distorting the shape of the skirt making it appear a little uneven and lumpy. Try a lighter petti, you'll probably find it looks better.

I disagree with the anon that said no to pointy collars, they do appear in lolita but 'peter pan' style is far more common. I actually think since your co-ord is quite clean and simple you can just about 'get away' with the blouse (esp as it has a pinstripe detail). For the future however, investing in a peter pan lolita blouse would be a lot better.

I think the brown wig you described sounds like a better fit.

ok, here's a quick collage. Hope this may help you to visualize things a little better. I've changed the black bow to a neater dark brown one with shoes to match. Curly, fuller wig, peter pan collar blouse in white, white opaque tights and white lace tights.

I have pointed out the area of your skirt that is distorted by the petti, it's no longer forming pleats in that section because there is too much volume in the petti, a lighter one should fix this.

>>7618671
I don't think there's anything wrong with the blouse, but you should get the dress tailored to fit better, or maybe just add corset lacing in the back. I agree that the black ribbon looks cheap, at least if you must use a ribbon, use bigger stronger ribbon and add a brooch.

Is this classic or sweet lolita? The colors tend to err towards classic, but the eyelet lace on the bottom looks awkward. Eyelet lace is like very old-schooley or country sweet.

Depending on what you were going for, change the shoes to something like cute oxford pumps, or some lolita or loliable shoes with bows on them.

My comments are obvious nitpicks, it's a decent beginner coordinate. With the earlier comment about too much poof? Is the dress velvet? If it's velvet, it may have the same problem the Lief sacred night series has: Velvet is heavy and doesn't really poof right, any construction problems with the amount of fabric in the skirt will show, and it'll really show in an ugly way.

I think the wig is fine, but consider styling it or buying halfwigs to attach to it so you can focus more on how the clothes look on your body rather than your hair. Hair usually ends up being a point to nitpick but I think the quality of your dress is dubious. While I'm not going to be like "Go get a brand dress!" I do think you should get a better constructed JSK.

Unflattering? Sure. Totally agree with that. Out of style? They're still super in style with people who are college aged (which she is), believe it or not (and I know some people might dispute this, but living in Boston where there are unis on every street corner, they really are in style now).

The dress actually has lacing at the back which I had a friend help me do up, is there anything specific I should be focusing on?

I was thinking old school since the dress is old school-ish to begin with?

It is velvet, but I think its more due to my petti, which is throwing things off because I know its very full.

Thanks for the tips! Is here possible a place you can direct me to find out more about good dress construction? I'm not knowledgeable in that area, so reading up on it would really help my future purchases!

I'm going to assume what you meant is that her personal eye chemistry is incompatible with contacts. She gets all red eye and itchy. Or the contacts gets all cloudy no matter what she does.

She's probably sensitive to the lens material and should try an older lens or a newer lens. Or better yet, ask about dailies.They are comfy, feel the most natural, and great for people who just want to wear their contacts for photo opportunities.

adding on to what other anons have been saying about glasses, yes it is easier to get thinner lenses now and yes cheaper frames are available online but if youre stuck with progressive lenses, like me, buying online really isnt an option since progressive lenses need precise measurements for where the prescriptions need to chane in the lenses. it usually doesnt mean thicker lenses but it does pretty much take contacts and online glasses off the table as options, and where I live at least progressive lenses add an additional $200 or so on top of all my other costs

I own a cyperous wig, which is super gorgeous, but unfortunately kind of small on me. If I don't secure that shit down with bobby pins it slips off my head when I add the extra fall in the back for a hime look.
So for one meet I absentmindedly just threw on a wig cap and a few pins with it--it was fine on the way there; but the second I stepped outside into the wind + walking, it SLIPPED off my fucking head. It was at a festival too so it's not like I had any place to adjust it.

The pictures came back and they were awful. The wig looked obviously awkward and so did my face because I knew how shitty I looked.

I think her weight is fine. She just always has issues with posing, I wish she'd just be more natural because she's fine in videos and stuff where she's not posing for a photo.

I agree. It is weird because she does wear sweet lolita so I don't know what the heck went on here. Maybe this is why she said that she won't wear it because she knew that she would fuck up big time.

I think she looks fine. The makeup is a touch heavy but the outfit and accessorizing isn't bad at all. There are plenty of lolitas who mix silver and gold and they look fine too.

What is with the vysanthe and book bag hate? I think she dresses very well. Xylia was posted in a nitpick thread over a book bag too and I don't get what the issue is. I think that as long as the colors aren't too clashing, it shouldn't be an issue. No one has issues with people using an AP pony bag with a dress that doesn't have horses on it as long as the color palette works.

How is her weight fine? Sure she isn't a landwhale but you can tell that she is on the chubby side by looking at her arms, her face, and her double chin.

I think it'd be a fine co-ord (though the waist tie on the head looks pretty dumb) if it weren't for the fact that the dress just plain doesn't fit her.

I've gotten nitpicked for slightly varying shades of mint. As in a blouse that's slightly a shade deeper in tone, but not any less cool or warm. But then again she got called out for being a vandetta. I see it happen all the time. It's sort of like an excuse to post someone they don't like without thinking they'll be called out.

It's because the bag is bordeaux and matches absolutely nothing in terms of colour, not because it's a book bag.

I seriously don't get what the issue with this one is. I mean, it's not the bag I would have chosen and the headbow is a little big (probably a waistbow like you said) but the coord itself isn't awful or anything.

>> No.7631666

I think she was trying to pair the tan of the beret and purse with the tan on the shoes, which probably look a lot closer in real life instead of a photo. Also, I'm pretty sure the chocolate on the bag is the same color as the main part of the shoe.

I'm not trying to get uber-defensive, but the matchy matchy shit drives me up the wall, esp. since colors look so different in photos and under different lighting.

Something about every one of this girl's outfits feels off to me, and her makeup really bothers me.
Here it's the capelet and the fact that her skirt needs more poof.
Also, I feel like she's a huge bandwagoner/trend follower.

>> No.7635603

>>7635592
I think she should've either picked the caplet or the blouse, but not both of them together. Honestly those sleeves are pretty goofy by themselves though and I'm a little afraid to see the rest of it. Other than that, I think she could've worn some slightly darker brown boots instead because this coord looks really top-heavy (though that may also be because the awkward pose + the parasol)

Not a nitpick of the coordinate (though she's posted a few that I could say a thing or two about), but ladies please pay attention to what you're doing with your feet when you pose. If this were a quick snap at a con I might understand not being sure of the camera angle, but she's taking a mirror selfie and should've noticed that one leg has almost completely disappeared behind the other. This could almost pass as closet cosplay of the leg lamp from A Christmas Story.

Elaborating on this, I put together a little collage for you guys. I'm not trying to pick on anybody in the photos, I promise! Hopefully this helps illustrate a little better why it's important to mind where your toes are pointing in relation to the camera, vs just what feels cute. If you want to keep your ankles together, one foot should be angled away from the camera just a bit. Same goes for when one leg is directly in front of the other (otherwise you will be diagnosed with the dreaded Leg Lamp Syndrome). If you want to cross your legs at the ankle, make sure both feet are close together and the back foot is pointed in the same direction as your front foot. Also keep your weight evenly-distributed between both feet, to prevent the stiff back leg the three middle awkward photos show.

Also be mindful of the shape of your legs too, I didn't really do a good job representing thicker legs in this set because I wasn't thinking about it until now, but as a general rule bigger legs tend to look nicer if you follow the same guidelines (especially about weight distribution), but pose with your feet just a little further apart so it doesn't look like you're trying to squish your legs together (which makes posing with your legs crossed at the ankles a little difficult to pull off, though obviously it can be done well as long as you mind where your feet are pointing!)

I'll probably go back and make a much better collage about this later, lol. I just wanted to expand on my nitpick because I have nothing better to do.

I know your feel deeper than you can imagine anon
I've tried to curb it with some advice I saw here a while back, she said to practice posing in front of a mirror with your eyes closed and try to imagine how you'll look when you open them. Then when you open your eyes you can see what looks different than you thought and adjust it next time, basically training yourself to have a better idea of what it feels like to look the way you want. It's helped me out a lot and I've actually found several quick convention snaps of me online that I liked enough to repost other places(which has never, ever happened to me before because I'm unphotogenic as hell).
