A lot of inspiring lolitas have been out of the fashion for a while... who would you like to make a comeback? (even if it's not feasible)

Tropigalia because she had a kick arse attitude and was hilarious and adorable.

Also those english girls from yeeeears ago who used to post together often twinning in odd locations. listerinepree(just looked her up). They rock the giant shoes and aren't especially classically beautiful in a commercial pop sense, but they took amazing photographs. And were massively bitchy on the communities.

I think, looking back, lolita isn't about girls looking pretty in pretty dresses to me. It's about kicking arse in pretty dresses. It is a subculture, it is expression, it's not just a fashion and it's not about being a prude or a lady or whatever(although, if osea_chello et all left lolita to persue religious convictions, so be it). Even though it is modest. I'm just being a loli nanna.

she's really lovely and while it's sad she is no longer into lolita ( both her and buttons) what she did for her burando was her own business, if it was stripping or just working behind the bar no one ever knew or found out.

Lolita is fine for most religions in terms of modesty, but can also be seen as covetous (trying to accumulate a large wardrobe and get the newest print) and distracting from god (putting together the best coord and keeping up with the comms is takes time away from god) also, vanity.

I say unknown because no legit sources ever confirmed who he was. He may of been known to her, or maybe she met him that night.

The fact was that her boyfriend was looking everywhere for her at the time, he was not with her and did not know where she was. He even posted on reddit to ask if she'd been seen.

But like how do you know she was even with a man?

I saw the reddit thread about the person who saw her die and they linked to another thread.. I didn't know that was her boyfriend? Or at least it wasn't obvious

It was in the info that the few friends gave out before everything went hush hush, it certainly wasn't her own hotel room she was in.
I'm sorry, I'm not expecting you to believe me as I don't have caps. This is just all the seemingly legit info I gathered during that week when I cared. The family and friends kept things pretty under the radar.

I saw something on one of the archived threads about it, and that he fleed the scene but I still wonder how anyone even knows there was another man involved. Someone said it was possible that she was trying to escape a potentially violent or dangerous situation, which kind of makes sense if she was naked... Part of me feels like she was just partying too hard and lost it. Maybe with a sugar daddy or something IDK.

I was speculating it was probably a 'wanna come to my room and get high' situation, but I don't have too much of a basis for it. Also, they could have pinned the blame on him if he'd given her the drugs and that would have made headlines, so probably not.

What's interesting is all of the pictures that one asian chick put up of her, she looks SO fucking high it's almost concerning. I'm surprised nobody looked into the mystery man angle as much as "girl takes too many drugs and kills herself" because that seems reaaaaally sketchy now that you mention it. It's unfortunate.
