>>What do you think is a staple in the ita's wardrobe?

>>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
Modern day one throws in more Loliable crap or tries to justify a fandom coord.
>>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
Ballet flats, Claire's plastic kids jewelry, Walmart baby section hair bows
>>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
~ 3 or more elements obviously wrong = ita, 1-3 minor things = nitpick

[Anonymous No.8494454]

>What do you think is a staple in the ita's wardrobe?
ill-fitting blouses, bodyline, repurposed cosplay items, hot topic cat tights
>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
old school ita = milanoo lace monsters
modern day ita = taobao/bodyline with no blouse and ballet flats
>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
F21 blouses. Often I see them in coords with only a bodyline skirt and a crapton of other "loliables" at that point I think the outfit stops looking like lolita and more like a cheap attempt at emulating the style. Normalfag blouses can work with lolita, but you have to already have a firm grasp of the style to make it work. Newbies think that any chiffon blouse can work with lolita, and that really isn't the case.
>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
If it hurts to look at, it's ita. If it could be fixed by changing a few things, it's nitpick.

[Anonymous No.8494456]

>What do you think is a staple in the ita's wardrobe?
A bad brightly colored wig.
>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
Difference is probably more replicas and OTT sweet done terribly.
>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
Probably blouses and shoes. I find most loliable blouses look terrible.
>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
Nitpicks are quite different in my opinion. When I see an ita it seems like most of the outfit needs to be replaced to fix it when it's a nitpick I could say to replace a few things here and there and it's fine. Plus anyone can nitpick any outfit honestly.

classic lolita tag on tumblr

>What do you think is a staple in the ita's wardrobe?
Bodyline, "loliables" they got off of Taobao resellers, cheap flower crowns, and at least one pastel wig.
>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
There's been a shift from gothic itas to sweet itas/classic itas. The theme of bad quality, bad fit, and special snowflake syndrome remain constant.
>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
Non-lolita skirts that are full enough to house a petticoat, especially if they have prints.
>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
If it can become decent-looking just by changing 1-2 accessories, it's a nitpick.

Ita if you basically have to scrap the whole thing, nitpick if you only need to fix one or two things.

[Anonymous No.8494844]

>>8494454
The fact alone of having Taobao and Bodyline in your wardrobe does not necessarily make you an ita. They're always either hit or miss, and itas, especially the newer ones, will tend to pick the lesser quality things.

[Anonymous No.8494848]

>>8494844
Also, too, the newer itas will tend to buy stuff from the Taobao resellers instead of directly from Taobao.

[Anonymous No.8494869]

>What do you think is a staple in the ita's wardrobe?
at least one of the classic bodyline prints (squirrel party and the clock one are probably the ones most used by itas), office-tier blouses, hello kitty accessories, and a wig with twin tails.
>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
old school itas can at least be excused by the fact that brand wasn't as readily available as it is today, nor were there so many helpful resources, unless you knew that lolitas were mainly on LJ and thus could go to them for help.
itas nowadays have no excuse because there's so much information out there (the guidebook, FB groups like BSoLF, etc.) that's easy to access, and brands can be purchased from with ease, both new and in second hand markets.
>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
again, office-tier blouses. i swear, newbies always think that any white button up with puffy sleeves can be ~loliable~ and that grinds my gears. if i were to choose a second one, i think it'd be getting ballet flats instead of actual lolita shoes, or at least shoes that are more elegant.
>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
in general i feel that if it's painful to look at, it's ita. if it can be easily salvaged by swapping out a couple things, it's nitpick. if the main piece is ugly, it's automatically ita in my book.

I'm just really tired of seeing a major element missing yet they post it as a lolita coord anyway. No petti, no blouse, hair messy, no makeup or way overdone makeup, non-lolita shoes 'because walking'. Where do we draw the line for it to become ita or even simply not lolita?

[Anonymous No.8495769]

>>8495752
Most resellers put a really big markup on it and often don't even have it in stock but order from TaoBao when you order. Other times if you just want one specific item, it can be cheaper and quicker to use a good reseller if they have the item in stock and don't mark up too much. But it's sometimes hard to tell good from bad until you know TaoBao prices better and with planning and a group order or ordering several things at once, it's often much cheaper to order through a TaoBao service but it takes longer to arrive.

>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
Good question! Hm. I feel like a lot of itas in the past didn't even have bodyline or anything to order from, and there was more handmade ita shit back then. Now it's easier to access lolita pieces, and a good number of itas I see are in bodyline, taobao or even 2nd hand brand, but they wear it with no petticoat, mismatched socks, and blouses that don't fit the aesthetic.
>>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
Like things people use for lolita that aren't good? Thrift and F21 blouses that don't fit correctly, have gaps between the buttons, etc
>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
Basically I try to only call things that are truly itai 'ita'. Does it hurt to look at? Is it completely, utterly unsalvageable? If so, ita. If a few changes could be made to the coord to make it better, nitpick.

Old school itas get a little bit of a pass, in my opinion. Most of us who had an ita phase pre-2008 were just working with what we had since lolita wasn't as accessible as it has become with the rise of taobao, the raise in Bodyline quality, and the overall availability of more resources in recent years. Nowadays, itas are just lazy, have poor taste, or make up a gajillion excuses to avoid admitting they're wrong. Tumblr has really fucked things up, too.
>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
blouses and shoes
>>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
If the outfit looks passable at first glance and I have to look at it a second time to see that there's something off about it, I usually put it in the nitpick category. You can tell when something is ita right away.

Wigs on ebay are far cheaper than a decent petticoat. A lot of people recommend pettis that are roughly $40. You can get a wig like that for $8 on ebay. Fuck even bodyline sells them cheap.

This isn't a nitpick on her because lots of people get this, I get it, and it's really frustrating. At the back sides of my blouse whenever it's tucked in, there's this extra floppy fold of fabric and even when I retuck my shirt it returns shortly after. It's completely put me off from wearing skirts all together unless I have a cardigan to cover it up. How do you stop you blouses from doing that?

If you wear OTKs, buy or make sock suspenders like this and clip one end to your sock and the other end to hem of your shirt. Not only they keep your shirt tucked in but they also keep your socks up. You should only need one for each leg (clip them on the sides instead of front/back).

(You can take apart two of these kids' suspenders to make them: http://www.ebay.com/itm/252010062701))

Also you can get a relatively tight wide elastic belt and put it around your waist first before putting the skirt on.

[Anonymous No.8497109]

>>8496304
On the flipside I've always wanted to make a blog taking these pictures but maybe being more constructive. I see so many girls on tumblr with really bad bodyline pieces that look like shit. Not that bodyline is bad per se but that there are much better pieces that bodyline (or other off brands for that matter) offers.

I wanted to start with super basics, like knowing your measurements and how to measure yourself. Doing the "lolita absolute basics" petticoat, blouse, shoes. (with links to said things) Basic style and fit things...

And then maybe graduate to taking someones post and pointing out improvements. Not sure if I should be a goodie goodie and ask first or just use it as an example..

I have a lot of ~plans~ but am too afraid that others will rip into it if i get some info wrong or have my own opinion on certain things.. eh

[Anonymous No.8497146]

>>8497045

First, if the blouse has waist ties, use them to make the waist smaller. If not, take the blouse to a seamstress to have the waist taken in so that there isn't so much excess fabric there.

Second. Once you've worn your blouse and tucked it in, raise your hands straight up in the air. The extra floppy folds will show up once you put your hands down. Now, pull an equal amount of fabric out from the front and the back of your blouse, and make a sort of even fold all the way around your waistband, like pic related (sorry for the non lolita pic).

You can't really help pulling fabric out of the waistband every time you move around (hence the other anon's comment about YMCA...), it's easier to have the extra fabric already out there but redistribute it and make it look even rather than have floppy folds only at your sides.

Other option is to not tuck in your blouse, get the kind that ends exactly at your waist and has frills along the bottom.

have you read the thread or

[Anonymous No.8498367]

Since a bit of discussion helped keep the thread from derailing last time, let's try that again.
>What do you think is a staple in the ita's wardrobe?
Lots of non-appropriate loliables (see below), Milanope, poorest of poor quality replicas that they wear often, pastel twintail split wigs, lots of cheap kids jewelry, ballet flats, The same Loris bags (star with the ribbons on it for example), bad handmade.
>What do you think is the difference between the old school ita and the modern day ita?
Old school ita tried with what was available to them with limited resources and outlets to purchase items and failed. Modern Day ita is someone who didn't bother to spend some time researching or developing an eye for choosing proper items. There is so much information and so many resources available now that newbies can avoid looking like a terrible hot mess if they spend a little time learning. Granted, some things still come with skill and experience, but you can look halfway decent these days even if you do just buy Bodyline.
>What do you think is one of the most commonly mistaken "loliables"?
Probably blouses. It's not impossible to find a nice Lolita-appropriate blouse. But it's going to require some hunting and luck as well as a good eye. You can't just grab any old blouse from a thrift store. Beginners are better off buying even a Bodyline blouse. Shoes are also a big offender. There are some cute af shoes out there in mainstream fashion that can work amazingly well with lolita. But they always make terrible choices when it comes to shoes.
>How do you personally differentiate between an ita and a nitpick?
Like others, if you'd have to scrap it and start all over, ita. If you need to change or fix a few small things, nitpick.

But if it references Lolita the book, it technically is. I don't like it either but unfortunately we need to tag differently to escape it.

This can be used for good though, the example of how NOT to sew a first coord and show the breakdown of pattern, fabric and accessories that show that GOOD lolita handmade usually falls in at ~ TaoBao prices unless you really find a fabric steal deal and that nice handmade is usually more expensive than basic Bodyline or budget used brand...unless you want to end up like this.

Lettng cheapie chans with beginning sewing experience believe that they can 'just make their lolita and save money' is false unless they sew decently, can resize lolita patterns and are really smart about finding fabric and trim deals.

I think it's the neglected sub-style with the most potential if people cared to do it correctly but the only way Wa is ever done well is by the few people who learn how to put on kimono half-way decently, use a real kimono or yukata and also understand how to do understated lolita coords well...and that pool of people is vanishingly small. Most people interested in kimono do traditional, gal style or kimono hime style, not Wa-Lolita.

Otherwise with the very different shapes and pieces, Wa lolita quickly gets cluttered, fussy-looking and ita with patterns, trim and accessories even if they can manage to get a decent shape going and aren't just a beach ball in a fluffy tube.

[Anonymous No.8500914]

>>8500786
I know, they pretty much told me that *I* was the one playing into gender too much and that I just needed to stop caring so much if people called me a woman or not.
This wasn't even on tumblr, this was on /lgbt/. It's crazy how their sexist attitude is permeating everything, and feminists are actually supporting it.

>>8500114
This is a bodyline kimono. I swear it comes with a separate skirt portion that is made to be worn with it.
I almost wish that the this-aint-lolita blog would just stop responding to those people. No justifications of why, just post it all there. Post asks you receive, but do not answer them. The itas will be mad, but even more so they will be infuriated by the lack of response, and then try to research information to prove you wrong and come up short, thus educating themselves. (source: used to be a butthurt ita).

[Anonymous No.8500917]

>>8500914
If it's Bodyline, it did have a bottom piece of some kind but you can tell from her styling in general that this probably isn't her only Ita mess coord.

I agree with not defending why the photos were posted but the blog is new and the owner is having fun responding for now so it's all good. I think other Lolitas will start responding more to 'why it's not lolita' because for some people it's very satisfying to go over a bad coord and list each bad part and suggest possible fixes.

[Anonymous No.8500919]

>>8500917
It is not about defending or explaining. It's best to just leave it there and let people figure out why it is there for themselves. A blog that is "hateful" is not a source of inspiration, those people are not going to aspire to be anything like the blog owner. If the owner does not respond those people will become mad and confused and look for their own answers either through validation or online research - either way which will end up with someone who they will actually listen to telling them what they need to hear.

Sorry to sound really new to that substyle, but what would be good examples of such? I just can't fathom

[Anonymous No.8500924]

>>8500919
Oh, you have a valid point, but I think the blog owner enjoys replying too and her blog, you know? Im not sure where the 'hateful' comes from though. The people who got posted there so far do deserve it but will cry 'hateful' no matter how kind concrit is. They want asspats, not the truth. You don't end up looking like that in the first place if you do even basic lolita research.

[Anonymous No.8500929]

>>8500922
I haven't saved any but there's one girl that always gets posted as 'the good example', maybe someone can post her. Meanwhile, I'll see if I can dig a few more up to post, I've only seen a handful of good ones accomplished.

For kimono styling/use, I prefer the other styles I mentioned or even Takuya Angel coordinates that use kimono. But I'm learning kitsuke basics so I can wear simple kimono and obi and honestly, I've just put it aside until autumn. Even with aircon, I get hot and tired practicing. Wa would be all that effort plus dealing with the pouf. Maybe someday.

[Anonymous No.8500935]

The funny thing though was how she freaked the fuck out in the comments, calling anonymous commenters anorexic haters who were jealous of her breasts. If she hadn't done that, nobody would have remembered and she wouldn't be called nipple-chan now.

"I saw a Hell Bunny dress that was Lolita."

>"Bloomers? Eh, I don't need them, I'm wearing tights."
I mean, bloomers aren't really a necessity. Sure it's recommended to use bloomers to help hold up tights, or to wear them in general because they're relatively cheap and comfy, but it's not thing you need to do every time otherwise you're ita.

[Anonymous No.8501210]

>>8501205
No but people usually say what you just said instead. Itas can't conceive of something unseen being needed. Which is why we also have to keep saying "buy a damn petticoat before a wig!".

[Anonymous No.8501213]

I hate itas who can't spell coord. It's not a music chord, or cord of rope, or a co ord (???). You're coordinating an outfit, so "coord" is the only spelling that makes sense!

Did you really just compare bloomers to a petticoat? Holy shit you're dumb. One is needed to give the skirt shape that's necessary for lolita, and the other is for comfort and maybe for holding up tights. I'll let you figure out which is which.

>>8501213
This. I like the extra support, but I realize that not everyone is going to need them. It's hot as hell here too and they can get uncomfy real fast. I'd rather just wear my ankle socks and call it a day around this time of year. Doesn't help that it's hot AND humid where I am.
