Nostalgia thread

Post about things that make you nostalgic (cosplay or lolita/general jfash!)
It can be pics,stories,...everything as long as you keep it /cgl/ related!


Pic very related. I miss coming back home from school and going on EGL on Livejournal.
I also kinda miss old internet in general (before 2010), and being so carefree.

I don't wear sweet like I did when I was a beginner, but the Oregon girls are still a major source of nostalgia for me. I used to browse faunkegin's and swdpunk's photo posts on egl and d_l for inspiration and still would had photobucket not gone to shit.

Things like PonPonPon, old bibles and stuff make me feel super nostalgic. I used to watch every new episode of kawaii.international (orginal with mana) and celebrated the first few episodes of kawaii.i. I was a sucker for any new information I could find about any kind of jfashion, vk artist or whatever.

[Anonymous No.9682808]

>>9682806
Oh my gosh yes kawaii international,kawaii.i,...
I was a bab back then who just began to get into lolita (and having asperger,if i get interested in something i get REALLY into it,nearly obsessed) and would spend hours looking at all of these vids,drooling over the Baby store tour,La Pafait tour,Angelic Pretty tour,...
>tfw I have the dress Misako wears in that vid that I used to want so bad years ago
It warms my heart whenever I see it in my closet. It looked every bit as pretty as I thought it was even years later.

I always wondered why they stopped the original kawaii.international. It was so cute and informative and way better than the current cringe efame hungry shit show it turned into. Like, they were right in the Itasha sequel when they stopped out of nowhere and I'd still check the channel months after to see if they'd upload more. Also sad that the full videos are all gone.

[Anonymous No.9682830]

Man, I remember looking at daily_lolita posts everyday from my favs. Shelbycloud, mintymix, and Iiralina were some I really liked. I used to also stalk everyday_vk in the mornings before I went to school. I remember when Claire Belton was still known for her art and lolita stuff rather than Pusheen. I used to plan ideas for things I wanted from Sweet Rococo when I eventually got the money. BTSSB and AP to me were like these huge expensive and inaccessible monoliths to me because I was still this young and poor student. I also remember seeing the birth of Fairy Kei and the like and being enamored with it. A lot of my JFashion friends got into it too recently to be able to nostalgia trip with me and it's a little bit lonely for me, I can't lie.

And same, If back then you told little me that I would have a full brand (main pieces) wardrobe today I would have gasped in disbelief lol.
I'm so glad brand became way cheaper especially older pieces from that time.
I remember rushing to do my homework when coming back from school so my parents would let me use the computer and I would go on EGL,read the latest wank,forums,... (back when "drama" was still called "wank" and "weaboo" were called "wapaneses")
and I would eat breakfast while reading secrets every sunday

I loved reading the secrets every week as well. Behindthebows isn't as fun to look through as it used to be, I haven't read the secrets in years. I really miss the lj days. While it's really obsolete as a social media platform it was really nice having basically the entire western lolita community on one site instead of spread out across multiple platforms like it is now.

Anyone else has a song or just songs they associate with starting jfash/lolita (or even cosplay)?

Yeah, it was like a weird sunday morning ritual I did, before I even had any lolita pieces when I was 15/16. It made me feel like I was closer to the community by knowing the ins and outs of it.

I really miss this kind of style... so simple compared to today's lolita. I miss getting home from school and checking egl and d_l and reading my favorite blogs. Now the community feels so disjointed and there's no actual discussion like there used to be on egl, no where to look at people's meet up pictures... it's just people stroking their own egos now.

People take being posted to cgl way too seriously and way too much to the heart these days. Too thin skinned. So people don't post meet photos for fear of ending up here and being called ita or uggo or whatever. I don't really understand why girls give a shit.

[Anonymous No.9691927]

>>9691901
People used to be a lot more afraid of cgl than they are now, and it's mostly newbies or permaitas who are still afraid. There's also a pretty negative association with being posted to 4chan and the fact that this board isn't just Lolita makes it a bit weirder.
I rejected a comm application from a girl once (she was known for being trouble in the con scene and we didn't want it in the comm). Next day she posts me specifically in my country thread on here, just any random photos she could find to the point where the congoers in the thread were pissed at her. Unfortunately, since people shit post in the threads on the regular I'm now part of that, my photos get dragged back up, edited, people say really creepy shit, and I've had people post my full name on there.
I know it's an extreme case but having photos posted here isn't the same as if it was on an LJ comm.

[Anonymous No.9691939]

>>9691927
I can confirm. I only started visiting cgl in 2012 even though I'm into lolita since 2008 and knew about the existence of cgl since 2009. I remember that cgl that was regarded in my comm as a place where all kinds of "horrible" people would gather, and it could ruin your reputation if you were affiliated with it. Oh and it was full of porn and gore so you better never visit this place. I know now that this was total bullshit (and possibly the tactic of some girls who knew better and came here to keep it more of a secret place), but the belief was strong in my comm to the point were girls were legit afraid of cgl. For the longest time I was scared of even typing this url into my brower lel.

[Anonymous No.9691961]

>>9691774
I didn't even join the fashion until 2014 and yet my heart still hurts reading this. I never lurked cgl before 2014, but I did see loads of pictures from LJ and other sources of daily lolitas and various Jfash kids in Harajuku and it just looked so whimsical and amazing. I obviously can't feel nostalgic for something I was never apart of, but I sometimes feel like I got into the community way too late. It's fun and I've met some wonderful friends, but I do wish there was a more unified platform and that people weren't such famewhores.

Me too. Her cover of jelly by capsule was disappointing. Kyary's grown on me over the years tho, so I listen to her every so often.

Speaking of lolita musicians, I miss Kana. Hebi Ichigo was my jam when I first started getting into lolita. And I loved Nana Kitade too. I listened to her "I scream" album all the time whenever I wore lolita

[Anonymous No.9693324]

>>9691927
>>9691939
Same here. Girls in my comm used to be terrified of cgl and never came here unless they were given a direct link to the offending thread. Nowadays it still has a bad reputation and if you make it known you post here you risk getting scapegoated when a comm member is posted to the ita thread, but the only people who don’t lurk here are naive newbies. This means that as soon as someone is posted or even mentioned in a negative way, they know about it. Most of them know better than to defend themselves but many will vent to their friends about it as soon as it happens and will bring it up at meet ups. /cgl/ is at the forefront of people’s minds way more than it used to be. When someone takes a silly picture at a meet, someone else will joke about the picture going on /cgl/. People act like it doesn’t bother them but they clearly do care and even let it determine their behavior to some extent.

They had to own the VHS tape/rented it, look for the right scenes, commit that shit to memory or sketch it, go through all the sewing cause either you did it or grandma and grandma was going to fuck it up cause she didn't want her grandbaby showing that much leg, and there was only 1 or 2 cons a year for them so they put serious effort into only a couple costumes.

Anyone remember this comic? I'm mad at myself for not saving the rest of it because the artist's site is 404'd (Lilian Higgens, iirc)

[Anonymous No.9721859]

omg, super flashback. I remember this way back when I first got into lolita. it was one of my favorite coords back then and I really wanted to replicate it. Thanks to whoever posted it in the other thread.

Honeymassacre! She was so beautiful in lolita

I remember these two images being one of my first exposures to the fashion.

How time has changed...

>>9721826
I'd kill to find out where that runway version of Memorial Cake is now.

>>9721827
I have this book! You aren't missing out too much though to be fair, it's called Gothic AND Lolita. There is an even amount of goths and lolita.

>>9721846
I'm sad I'll never get to experience this now. I was too young to have a big wardrobe and freedom to hang out all the time and have shoots and meetups. Now I'm 23 but no friends to have meetups or hangouts in frills in, our comm isn't that close knit.


Never forget the graveyard shoot

I would spend hours after school on the original In the Starlight website, making lists of all the skirts/blouses/dresses/socks/etc I wanted in a million color combinations.

[Anonymous No.9721922]

>>9721906
Oh no that lace

[Anonymous No.9721924]

has THE dress been mentioned yet?

[Anonymous No.9721936]

>>9691628
I'm rooting for you both!

[Anonymous No.9721953]

>>9721906
Same... lol. though it sucks because I still have my old ITS stuff and it's horribly ita. The lace is horrible and cheap and scratchy and the fabric is the basic, cheap, gross poly/cotton Joann's blend. UGH. I thought they were precious at the time, and still they have a certain nostalgic charm to them, but they are terrible and I could have spent money elsewhere. The girls were really nice, I think there were two at first, at least, and then just one? I can't remember... I just know it was.. maybe 2002? 2003?

[Anonymous No.9721954]

>>9721906
I have this still. ew. lol. black with black lace though. I think I wore it once. It was so pretty on the site but icky lace and fabric made me sad.

Remember the Cruxcrommissa skirts, aka one of the very first big scammer dramas in the LJ community?

It had everything: mods defending him, that one friend who ended up working at Btssb in San Francisco and bitching about customers on his LJ because he didn't like actually talking to people, and I think at one point someone actually went to his house? Very dramatic.

Looking back, it's almost funny that so many people were just clamoring to get these skirts.

[Anonymous No.9722132]

>>9722127
Oh man, I remember reading that drama. It was excellent stuff. Weren't the skirts Baby knockoffs too?

Mabet is still the queen of scams though.

[Anonymous No.9722156]

>>9722132
They were knockoffs for sure, I can't remember if they were Baby or AP knockoffs though.

I miss when comms could do silly stuff like this and not get a bunch of salty bitches posting about how "cringy and immature" they are on cgl.

Member the carolinedesu drama? Oh god...

Holy shit it would be so cool if they could recreate some of the exact old poupee clothes

[Anonymous No.9722463]

>>9722439
There's no way cgl would call posing with Waldo cringy or immature. It's dry humping each other for loledgeyxD pictures that cgl shits on, and rightly so.

They used to have a messageboard??
I wish this was a thing now. I feel like there used to be a bit more brand loyalty. Like how we had LJ groups for selling or discussing certain brands.
