Let's have a lolita accessories thread! Feel like you keep reusing the same pair of tights with every coord? Does your lack of necklaces and rings upset you? Here we'll share links to lolita-appropriate items that will make your dresses pop.
Coord advice can be given here as well, but keep in mind there is a collage thread going on which might be better for that: >>6210730

Does anyone know where I can get opaque and thick/hard-to-rip tights? Especially ones with patterns or prints on them.

I'll post some links that I have, though I don't have as much as I'd like. They aren't link format because the system keeps thinking I'm spamming but a quick google search using these terms should get you to the shops.

>sockdreams
pretty much the standard go to socks/tights store, with free shipping to those in the US.

>zoharatights
beautiful tights thatd go great with classic/gothic coordinates

>TejaJamilla@etsy
hand printed tights with some interesting patterns (the deer ones are so cute ;_;)

I don't have many accessory stores, I apologize! But sharing links is the point of this thread, so here's what I got.
>foxcherry333@taobao
probably one of the best shops for lolita accessories, though last I heard they are swamped/not taking orders? not sure.
>lolitaer@taobao
seems to have the basic lolita things, really cute berets

If you guys don't feel like spending $30 on tights, I found this really simple tutorial on how to make your own custom patterned ones

I have a pair of the grey ones with the writing on them. The tights themselves are amazing, super-stretchy and opaque, very durable. They need to be hand-washed and frankly the print is not super water-resistant, so it's fading in spots after just a couple of wears. While I love the way they look, I don't think I'll be buying more from them unless I hear they've changed their printing process :(

Anyone have any suggestions or preferred shops for buying floral crowns and wreaths?
I know there's a shitload on etsy but the sheer number of options is just too overwhelming; anyway to narrow the list down a bit would be really helpful :)

Mbok, it's a beautiful place. Japanese lolitas are hemorraghing clothes right now. For cheap, too.

That was more of a comm_sales quote. Prices are still inflated there.

As the weather gets colder go for knitted tights. They'll have them on tutuanna soon since they're in stores already. I saw some cute ones with carousels on them. They're a lot thicker than regular tights and are knitted, almost like sweater material so they'll never get runs.

Does anyone know where to get functional-but-cute hats that would work with lolita? Conventional stores near me only seem to be selling knitted beanies and those damn trilby things, but I'd really love a classy wool felt boater/porkpie/bowler for winter. Unfortunately the only good quality ones I've found online were marketed to men and so far too big for my tiny little (53 cm) head.
I have been seeing some nice cloches around, but such a fitted hat on a head as tiny as mine would make any lolita outfit look strangely unbalanced.

Am I going to have to look to taobao? I've never used a shopping service or anything before.

>> No.6277834

>>6277678

FoxCherry on Taobao may have exactly what you are looking for.

Using a shopping service isn't difficult. I use Taobaoring, and their system is super easy to use.

H&M carries them sometimes, I got a wool boater there a few weeks ago for very cheap! They're quite plain, obviously, but adding ribbon trim and a few bows or whatever isn't hard.
