[Anonymous No.6529264]

First time I'm going to be buying from taobao (most the items anyway). Been tinkering with the coord a while because I know I want to make a fab purchase before I commit. My biggest worry is that I'm throwing too many colors in one coord. (with the lavenders, pink, and white) but any advice is appreciated

[Anonymous No.6529285]

>>6529244

The coord is pretty cute, my suggestions would get different shoes, something not as wintery or casual. Even regular pumps would look better. The tights looks off since the apples are sort of a polkadot print so it's weird having polkadot tights. I'd go with solid sheer black. The beret is cute, you could add some small black bows to it. Last I'd throw on some jewelry like a long chain neclace with an apple on the end and some apple themed charm bracelets or something.

[Anonymous No.6529291]

>>6529264

The coord is super cute and the only thing I'd be wary about is the pink blouse. The rest of the pink accessories work fine but I'd go with a white blouse for a backdrop to the print since it doesn't have pink in it.

Unless you have the real MMM version, skip it. This is bag only gets away with not being considered tacky because Mana-Sama made it so long ago and it's iconic MMM; AKA it's a status symbol. Replica status symbols just get you labeled ita.

I think its cute, but add different shoes :)

[Anonymous No.6529421]

I"m not 100% confident with the hat, Suggestions are very much welcomed. I'm thinking perhaps just plain black wedges (I'm stuck between black suede with a bow on the back, or black leather with a heart cut-out in the heel), but I'm not sure what to do about tights (brown, black, cream or lace?) Constructive criticism is very welcome.

[MeidoAnon !!VoY4oi0keqX No.6529437]

My first coord, I have realized I am terrible at picking out wigs. Not sure if I want to use these earrings, and not sure what to do for leg wear (maybe just some fancy patterned white tights). I'm unsure if this blouse will be fine to go with this because of the black buttons on the sleeves, but I think maybe it will be okay. Going to get some rings to go with it too, probably not a necklace or a bracelet, though.

[Anonymous No.6529438]

>>6529421
That skirt is gorgeous, wow! I'm with you on the hat. I feel like it could be really lovely, but has too much going on? IMO I think it would look nicer with more flowers on it. You could always just buy a boater and add silk flowers and ribbon/lace. Even dried flowers would be a lovely touch.

[Anonymous No.6529449]

>>6529437

That's pretty spectacular for a first coord. The collar on the blouse might look weird with the dress and I wouldn't wear the neck ribbon. White lace tights will match perfectly.

[Anonymous No.6529456]

>>6529438
I'm not dead set on having a hat. But I might peek around second hand stores to see if I can find a boater and just put some flowers on it like you said.

[MeidoAnon !!VoY4oi0keqX No.6529463]

>>6529449

The bow on the front of the bodice is detachable, and the neckline of that blouse is a little low so I feel like it will lay over the top of the dress a little with the tie (pictured). Thanks very much! I've been interested in lolita for a long time now, but couldn't afford it until now, so I'm very excited.

[Anonymous No.6529467]

>>6529437
I think a blouse with a high collar might work better because then it won't get in the way of the neckline on the dress.

[MeidoAnon !!VoY4oi0keqX No.6529476]

>>6529467

I was thinking that too, but I thought maybe the neckline was too low on the dress to look good with a high collar blouse. I actually got curious and terribly photoshopped it to see how it might look together. Not sure how accurate this, though, but I imagine it would be something like this?

[spacehobo !!l9ngbI9ABkn No.6529498]

>>6529244
I would go with different tights, maybe solid black would work. Change the shoes, red or black tea parties would be cute. Add some bows to the beret and a pair of bracelets/wristcuffs maybe? A matching necklace would look nice too.

[Anonymous No.6529576]

>>6529476
As someone who owns this dress, I'd say that the neckline of that blouse is not going to sit like that. The sleeve/strap things really do want to sit out diagonally on the shoulder and you'll probably get an awkward gap between collar and puffy sleeves.

[Anonymous No.6529652]

How acceptable is this dress for a try-out coord?

[MeidoAnon !!VoY4oi0keqX No.6529651]

>>6529576

I own that blouse and tried it on a few minutes ago, the 2nd button from the top is about even where my nipples are, so the neckline is low on me. Where does the top of the bodice of that dress come up to on you? I'm a 34B if that helps.

[Anonymous No.6529679]

The MMM bag is not the original, it's practially identical to a bag Pleaser had been making for at least ten years before the Motie one.

[Anonymous No.6531522]

>>6530888
Are you sure it was pleaser, and did you purchase it, or know someone who did, or... give me a time other than "a decade before MMM"? Because I got really curious about this and checked out pleaser, and they say they started as a company selling shoes in 1993. The MMM bag dates to 2000, possibly earlier. I'd give you 7 years is close enough to 10, except, when I look up pleaser in the way back machine, they have bags on their site back in 2003 in their catalog for stores to order stock from and it's not among them. It is however in the mix in their punk section a few years later (2006 or earlier) after they started caring "gothic lolita" bags that are covered in lace.

are you sure the pleaser one is not a MMM replica?

I'm putting together some coords to wear for a convention next weekend and I kind of wanted to do something with my Meta lucky pack items. I threw this together, but I'm not 100% sure on it.

Thanks so much, you two!! It completely slipped me how perfectly this dress would go with the cuffs! I'm sort of in love. Could I get some input on non-print coords for now, though? Like what color blouses or JSKs/skirts do you think would look good with this? Full-on sax with yellow accents? Shiro? I don't own March of Ducks and even though I really love how good it would work with the cuffs I want to see how much I can make do with versatile pieces. :) Perhaps removing the ducks on the cuffs would make them easier to coordinate, but that was a part of their appeal to me when I got them.

[Anonymous No.6531622]

The only reason I questioned it is because the browns were everywhere. The corset has other colors in it (warmer browns, olive greens etc) to go with it. I'd seen people work corsets into coords before, but I suppose it would be better with a plain colored one that matches the blouse/skirt rather than a bright color in the middle. Most of my wardrobe consists of pastel stuff, and I'm trying to work in more gothic/classic elements, but it's hard to do when you don't have much outside a few items to go with. I do have a plain black headbow, but I've not gotten much use out of my bonnet.

>>6531600
The skirt is brand new, from yesterday, never washed. The other browns are very saturated, that's probably why it looks faded.

[Anonymous No.6531647]

>>6531573
Thank you for the feedback.

I had a feeling something was really wonky about it, but I thought it was mostly the browns being everywhere and I don't have anything that is more like a bronze tone, just saturated brown. The socks that came with the skirt in the lucky pack are too on the sweet side to go with it, but the brown at least matches (why I threw them in). I put the corset in because I've seen people working them into coords before and wanted to experiment. But I suppose I'd really need a plain colored one that blends into the blouse and skirt better. I do have a plain black headbow to use (maybe clip one of the darker brown roses on top too). I just don't get much use out of my bonnet and wanted to try it out for shits and giggles, hell it's at a small con. But maybe a skirt/blouse combo is a little too dressed down for a bonnet? Idk.

Sorry, I have a mostly sweet pastel wardrobe, and trying to work more classic and gothic items into my wardrobe, so it sort of feels like I'm starting over just trying to coordinate with one item.

>>6531600
Skirt is brand new (arrived yesterday), but it probably looks faded because the browns are a lot more saturated and I'm surrounded by brown in the picture.

[Anonymous No.6532141]

open toe shoes with tights, do not like. If you're going for such an evening-out type feel, then why not go with a short sleeved chiffon blouse in the same shade of purple? It's like, trying to be lolita and then has this very formal-dinner-out thing with the shoe and bag and jewellery.

corsets can work with loli, but they are very tricky. They only work if they don't go below the hip bones which yours does.

[Anonymous No.6532640]

>>6531573
Hmmm, you've got a lot of interesting elements in here, but all together it's rather overwhelming. The bonnet/headdress is lovely, as are the tights, and I think the corset could work as well, but you need to let ONE of them serve as your statement piece and keep everything else toned down. I think the easiest solution is to save the corset for another outfit and find some cream/offwhite flowers for the headpiece instead of the rosy-colored ones. Hope this helps!

Not sure why everyone is so concerned about the pink blouse not matching the dress, that's like doing a pink x mint coord with a mint dress and a pink blouse, as long as you have other pink elements in it (which you do) it's fine. I'm more meh about the tights, to be honest, since it's a big block of white in what's a mainly lavender x pink with white trim coord. I'd go for pink tights myself, or something printed in a theme echoing the dress.

either use the dark pink, yellow, the white. you could even get away with the darker green if you were careful.

cream could do well too. though there's no actual cream in the skirt that i can see- if it was more of a white cream than a yellow cream it'd be very classic sweet.

I love the tights (I have a pair myself) But they don't really go with the rest of the theme you've got going (they're a very obviously nautical/pirate-theme, and they don't aesthetically fit with the print of the dress, or the necklace). Maybe go for tights with a more neutral theme (I believe the etsy shop does ones with keys for example?)

Having such a huge wig without any hair accessories might not work so well, unless you're intending to have the straw hat, in which case just use your own hair.

I'm also not sure about the shirt, is it one you already happen to have or one you want to get? If it's the latter, I would recommend something less in-between-classical looking and more sweet, like this (without the ribbon).

I'd also accessorise a bit more, maybe adding a bracelet or a couple of rings, since you've started with the strawberry theme in your jewellery you could work it through the whole outfit.

Yeah, the elastic in the straps makes it want to ride quite high, hence why high-collared blouses. Also, make sure you have a decent petticoat or three because it is HEAVY - I'm wearing two Classical Puppets pettis in that picture (bell shaped and the a line underneath it)

I might get another pair of shoes than the boots honestly. They'd be cheaper and probably look better anyway.

Okay, so I'm totally new to Lolita and I have no idea how to match shit. I have two of these that I intend to get by February and I have no idea what accessories to make for it (I can't spend too much).

Is it a sin to go so basic? Because I kind of like it simple like this without bracelets, rings, necklaces. Maybe a head piece, I'm definitely styling the wig into pigtails.

[Anonymous No.6535361]

>>6535357
And the second one. I don't exactly want black shoes, but I really don't know what else would look okay with the vanilla/cream color on the rest of the dress.

[Anonymous No.6535366]

>>6535357
We're really fine with basic, as long as the outfit hits all the rules some even prefer that.
Make sure your petticoat is full.
Both are OPs so you don't need a blouse. One bracelet or flashy ring would be enough to complete the whole thing but you might want to invest in a plain matching hairclip.

Both seem pretty good.

I think you're fine keeping it simple, it's a very detailed dress and those shoes are perfect with it! I'd look for a simple hair accessory, and maybe add a bracelet. A simple, pretty white/offwhite bag will really bring it together!

>>6535361
Same with this one, bracelet and hair accessory. If you go with a cream bag for the last one, you could reuse it with that dress. I'm not sure about the pigtailed wig with this one - the blonde is fine, but the style looks a little too sweet for the outfit. As for the shoes, I think black works fine, but you might try them with cream or vanilla-colored lace tights. Good luck!

I think it's very ethereal, but you should turn down the snowflake motif. The simpler hair clip is much better than the crown, for example, and the earrings are a little much. I think you should hint at snow with a clear or white gem, not use as many literal snowflakes. The boots are also giving me a hard time. I think it is a very beautiful colorful combination for the most part, and that you only need to focus on the tiny details now.

I bought the skirt in the picture on impulse, thinking I'd take my first steps into Lolita fashion, but it's been sitting in my closet since August. I don't know what I'm doing.

Skirt: Il Sanguine, Marie High Waisted Skirt (green x ivory)
Blouse: English Charm's Ruffled Long Sleeve in Cream
Tights: Sock Dreams Nordic Texture Tights
Hair Accessory: Matching bow that came with the skirt or the pictured red rose clip.
Shoes: Brown oxford heels or dark red Mary Janes.

I'm going for the classic lolita look, but my coord feels so boring and bland. Please help, Fairy Seagullmothers?

It's a little bit empty. Personally, I'd try to pair that with navy before I paired it with brown, but that's just me. I can see the structure of what you're going for, maybe add more of the red/wine/burgundy-ish colour?

[Captain Insaneway !!6gMVhmbBzln No.6536286]

Pretty cute! I don't think the cream/off-white of the cape fits in very well though. Maybe a navy cape with double brass buttons? (IDK if there's such a thing as a double breasted cape, forgive my ignorance of correct terminology.) I know you said you couldn't find one, but I've seen a few on Taobao. If I can find a link, I will link you.

I'd also switch the shoes out for navy if you could find them. That aside, good start! Try Etsy for cute accessories matching your theme.

This is cute! I'd wear a black bolero and perhaps a black ribbon tie at the neck of the blouse to balance out the top half of the coord. The print doesn't really seem to match with your elements, but I can't fully make out what it is.

[Anonymous No.6536604]

>>6536585
It's the cinderella bunny print from bodyline. The bunny bag...self explanatory. The hourglass necklace I think hopefully becomes self explanatory when you think about the story of cinderella. The JSK version of the skirt (which I own) as well as the bow on it has pearls, so that's kinda why I went with the cinema doll shoes and beret and the pearl bracelet. The bolero is a really good idea, I tried to put a cardigan instead but I didn't really like it so I took it out.

Some flowers in the hair would look cute with that dress. Was looking at this wig originally for the second one. It does look a lot better than the blonde one, I figured I could tone it down with a hair piece, but this one is nicer.

>>6535493
An off-white/vanilla colored bag would be cute with both of them. The wig in pic attached goes along much better I think. I'm going to have to look around for what hair piece or bracelets would go with this. I really have no clue.

I would get tights, but because of reasons.... I can't. The second one would look really cute with black tights that had a simple design on it though, I agree.

some of these outfit ideas are making me cringe is this normal?

[Anonymous No.6537194]

Help, I cannot shoes.

I'm trying to work out an outfit for this skirt that works with shoes I already own. Currently leaning towards pink x pink x pink with the left-most boots, but wondering if any of the other options would work with a complimenting blouse/top/accessories - certainly I'll lose the boot toppers and go for plain tights if I was to wear any of the heels/flats.

I think I'm going more for lolita-influenced-with-pink-leopard-fur as opposed to lolita at this stage since all the coords I think up are pretty casual.

[Anonymous No.6537199]

>>6537194
Do you have anything brown (or close to the shade of the bottom of the skirt)? The pink tights with pink shoes seems too pink-heavy on the bottom.

Super cute coord idea, BTW.

[Anonymous No.6537201]

>>6537199
I don't really have brown in my wardrobe except for like...one blazer which is more chocolatey and not the same shade of brown as the skirt. I was thinking maybe going with maroon tights since it is quite a pink/red-toned brown, and then the boot toppers/boots, but that would leave me trying to work maroon into the top part. The other option I thought about was nude tights + pink boot toppers + boots, or nude tights + flats without the boot toppers and maaaaybe going for the brown flats.

[Anonymous No.6537221]

>>6537201
Yeah, I think nude tights would break up the pinkness, so you could do the boot-toppers and boots since they'd have the brown in them. I personally don't like flats in lolita but that's just a thing.

[Anonymous No.6537225]

>>6537221
That's why I ended up calling it more lolita-influenced, I think. I don't think I want any more poof than the photo if I'm going with flats. I usually wear shoes with low heels, like the black boots on the right, or platforms. I feel like the poofiness of the skirt makes you look stumpier in flats.

>>6537408
They work best with a dress that doesn't have a busy print. Solid color dresses and dresses with simple prints with accents that match the tights are your best bet.

However some Grimoire tights aren't as busy as others and those can be worn with a more complicated print.

Taobao is cheap because the abundance of workers and cheap raw materials. The problem with shipping that it costs a lot of money. 40-100USD.

Mob coord? The Brooklyn Italian in me wants this so bad.

[Anonymous No.6541095]

Sorry for my shitty collage skills!

I managed to find this Baby dress for cheap on Mbok, so I quickly snatched it up. I have my prom this year, so I wanted to do a sax-themed Hime coord.
Since prom is rather formal and I didn't want to look too childish, I figured I would keep the halter look and scrap the blouse.
Also, it's probably pretty hard to tell by my shitty drawing skills, but the hair I plan on doing is a high bun with straight-across bangs and lightly-curled ringlets on either side of my face. It was really hard to find any pictures close to what I want to do.

Any and all advice is greatly appreciated! I have a long time until my prom, so I want to make as many tweaks and adjustments as I can so I can order everything in time.

Lose the knee socks and go for lacy tights. Pair of nice heels in sax or white (think DreamV) and not the antaina shoes.

If you have the choker and ring, girl... I'm jelly. Those items are on my wtb list.

[Anonymous No.6541138]

>>6541107
Okay, version 2, how does this look? I wasn't too keen on the knee socks either, but I never thought of lace tights. That's a great idea!
Luckily, those DreamV shoes are sold out in blue for every size but mine. I should probably snag them before somebody else does.

I like the idea of mixing wine and navy into the outfit. I'd try to stick to light-colored socks to keep the outfit from getting overpowered by the darker tones.

[Anonymous No.6542371]

I know this isn't a coord request entirely but can some one help me pick out a pair of tights/socks?

The blouse is sheer w/black polka dots & the shoes are black. My bolero is black also so I'd like to avoid black legwear.
Assc./jewelry ideas also welcomed.

Need some help coordinating Polka Dot Chocolate for an upcoming meet.. The left side is based on this coord I saw that is very much toned down with lots of black. It might be cold so I thought a toned down look with black tights and socks might be more suitable.
The right side is something I came up with quickly for a lighter coord. Since the socks are pink I'll probably have some pink hair accessory.

Concrit on either one or some third option appreciated.

Okay guys, this is my first coord and I need opinions and critiques about this!

[Anonymous No.6543366]

>>6543358
No stripes. If you want patterned leggings... I would do polka dots (circular pattern to go with the shape of the balloons) but it's really too busy on the bottom with that... you'd have to have more on the top. Throw away the hat, mini hats are super hard to pull off and if it's your first coord, you don't want to try.

[Captain Insaneway !!6gMVhmbBzln No.6543387]

Anybody wanna help me throw together a coord with my newest addition to my closet?

Preferably with hair accessories other than the matching bonnet or bow, as both seem rather elusive these days.

I'll probably be wearing it with my Royal Chocolate short coat in mocha.

[Anonymous No.6543397]

>>6543366
Thanks for the critique!

[Anonymous No.6543395]

>>6543224
I like the one on the left better, but maybe with black tights/the shoes from the right and then pastel shoe clips to give a pop of colour at the bottom

>>6543358
Why a white blouse? You have no white anywhere else on the coord unless you go with white tights, which would be much better than random stripes but maybe just look like you don't know how to match beige. Also no to the mini hat, the bow on the picture of the dress is much nicer. I'd go brown blouse, brown or beige lace tights, and that bow.

[Anonymous No.6543405]

>>6543395
I never thought of that... That's actually really clever.
Thanks!

[Anonymous No.6543431]

>>6543405
No worries. Because the dress is so beige/yellow toned, it's easier to match it with a blouse in the same tone spectrum.

[Anonymous No.6543453]

>>6543431
Not that anon, but personally I can't stand a blouse with sleeves underneath a dress with sleeves. Straps/no straps/skirt or JSK yes, sleeved dress not so much.

But that's a cotton shirt? Not a blouse. I don't know, opinions, but it almost always looks 'off' to me
Like someone who can pull off a weird hairstyle and look good, but would better with a different hair cut. It's like that.

How is a blouse different from a shirt?

[Anonymous No.6543648]

>>6543622
the material tends to be heavier/thicker

Maybe something like a chiffon blouse?

[Anonymous No.6543778]

>>6543648
The word blouse is commonly used as a word for a shirt for women (and is originally a different model from a shirt), it's got nothing to do with the material used.

[Anonymous No.6543782]

>>6543778
Different definitions I guess, I've always been taught that a dress shirt(typically collared button up)=blouse

[CollageAnon No.6546049]

>>6543358
That dress is so neat! I agree with the other anons, I'm not sure about putting a blouse under it. If you're worried about coverage, try a lacy camisole underneath. That gorgeous neckline is just begging for a statement necklace. I like the shoes you've picked out, just make sure you repeat that dark tone somewhere else in the outfit.

Making a folder is too cumbersome when I have the add on for fire fox "DownThemAll!" it downloads every single image upload without doing it individually. The tumblr is more of an archive that all the lolitas can follow and look at.

okay so guys, let's suppose I want to try the Tumblr thing. Names? I'd rather it not be lolita-specific, since I like doing collages of all styles.

Also, is it possible to manage two tumblrs at once? As in, does Tumblr have a setting for that so I don't have to log in/out every time I want to switch between personal blog and collage blog?
