I'm an aspiring brolita who's getting in shape to look as best as I can. Would being 5'8" with a figure of 36-30-30 work against me? I'm V shaped with big shoulders but thankfully I have a small waist.

Pic related, it's the JSK I want. Can't wait to go to BTSSB's SF store and throw down the plastic to buy it.

Hey! I'm a tippy heavy former fatty chan whose 5'8! My measurments were 40-30-42 and baby dresses with shirring fit me! I'm now 37-28-35 and my baby dresses, now, have extra room in them! Based on my experience you're going to be a-okay as long as you go with at least half shirring. Also aim for drop waist cuts it'll elongate your torso and make you look more femanin.

>> No.6514608

>>6514596
your bust and waist are on the upper limits of brand sizing, especially Baby.
You're gonna wanna look for a lot of full shirring pieces because even with partial shirring your gonna be a few cm's out of max range
its not unpossible, you just have to dig a little deeper to find pieces that fit

Different anon, but just so you know, this is actually a common problem among chilldhood athletes. I haven't heard of it with swimmers, but young gymnasts can stretch out/expand their ribcage permanently by stretching it out to often during gymnastics. Ribs are actually very flexible if repeated activity causes them to stretch out, especially during childhood. It's not an entirely implausible concept. That said, it could also just genetic. I have a large ribcage as well (not large in general, but for my height/weight), but there's no special reason for it - it's just a feature of my family.

Like the skirt
blouse is ugly and makes me think of something an age player would wear to get daddy to fuck them.
you have pretty hair, get a cut that won't make it seem so flat and dull, learn to do basic styling

learn to make up
I would also suggest blouse under skirt unless the skirt has no band(in which case wear a cardigan or something over the blouse)


also preferably avoid lots of pinkXwhite, especially when it's very ruffly and frilly or has teddy bears and shit, tends to look very age play.
Like for this I would have had an off white/cream blouse that was simple but had a tie/bow thing(the skirt isn't pure white which makes it look off)

wear longer sleeves, ditch the striped tights, get a wig which the colour suits you(looks very off imo), I think your actual hair could be used, just give it a style (eg layers and bangs) and learn to style it. Also maybe adjust the dress length via bigger petti or something? Looks a tad too long

I can see that you like sweet and pastels, but darker and richer colours would probably be more flattering and help pass you more(since it hides rather than highlights things like muscles and your lack of boobies). And make up.

I don't say this like you're awful, you aren't, but simple things to improve on.

In the 2-3 months that I've decided that I really want to do this I've gotten more serious about skincare (I want to stay looking as young as possible lol) and I've noticed a definite improvement in my skin. I have to say wanting to be a brolita is an amazing motivator in working out. =)

for fitness, I think your best best would be to read through the /fit/ faq. I personally try to lift weights 3 times and run 5-8 miles 3 times a week.

For skincare I've been doing cleanser->toner->anti-aging cream at night. In the mornings I use a cleanser, followed with an exfoliating facial scrub twice a week. Just like Patrick Bateman I'm giving using an ice pack in the mornings some serious thought. I also moisturize my face frequently, mostly twice a day. I've had a lot less breakouts than before I started my regimen. Using sunscreen helps a lot too for me since I'm pretty fair.

For something longer lasting than shaving. remove hair from the roots by depilatory creams threading, , electrolysis or waxing (waxing is likely the quickest and painless of these.). Regardless on how you go about it, be sure to clean your face and exfoliate to clear dead skin cells. If you're shaving, be sure to moisture and apply of orange lip stick over the areas shaven as this color neutralizes the blue shade of an unexpected 5 o clock shadow.

I'm not a guy, but I've gotten accustomed to diaphragmatic breathing long enough in which in spite of having an ideal bust size for lolita, wearing dresses are generally uncomfortably tight for my expanded ribcage.

Maybe it's just me but I notice that girls tend to have fuller arms. I usually see a dead give away among MtF cross dressers/trans people who have super skinny-angular arms.

Potential future brolita here. I have a couple of questions:
1. How do you deal with beard shadow? As a regular crossdresser, that's been my biggest battle.
2. What's the best way to start brolita (not sure if there is a better way to phrase that). Are there particularly good places to acquire things, items that I need to have or else, etc.?
3. I ask this mainly because I am curious. Do the brolitas here regularly crossdress normally, or is it just lolita fashion only?

>>6518459
I cannot answer one since I'm still a beginner with makeup. I'm sure transgender (not drag queen, as drag queens are a bit ott with their makeup) tutorials on youtube may be of some help.
2. You need your basics (petticoat, blouse, bloomers* optional but recommended, etc) I'd say it'd be best to start out with BodyLine. Be wary though, as they have some terribly ita items.
3. I have a small lolita wardrobe myself, but I do plan on going outside of Lolita fashion and going into Fairy kei and probably Pastel goth too.
