Lovely Lor I was banned from the Amino Lolita like 1 year ago because the leader is immature. '-'
Oh gods I'm still probably in my own Ita phase. I work so hard on the few few coordinates I have but I'm sure in a few years I'll look back and be like "wtf was I thinking"
You should join Lolita 101 Amino because it's more chill. Still has rules though but not as bad if you're having problems with Lolita Amino.
@@harumoru3589 yeish.
Lovely Lor the link won’t work and when looking up Lolita on amino nothing shows up
This entire video: "She's a little confused, but she's got the spirit."
Insulting and judging a newbie is the ugliest thing people could do 🔪🐇
I always like seeing people starting out and seeing their evolution.
I tried to join the "scene kid" community and I was criticised for not looking "scene" when I joined a social network for scene kids. At the time my hair wasn't long enough to cut it into the scene hairstyle, i had no money to buy wigs and no money to buy the clothes and now I find myself in the same situation with lolita and even furry
Royalrosewolf that’s why I’m a loner Lolita
@@usagiprincess4387 I am too and now I have one lolita skirt
@@magicmoonart That sucks. How people react to newbies I mean.
I personally am really interested in many things at once(that's just so me thing) and all of the things are very demanding time-wise and money-wise. And I'm broke. Like high schooler without a part time job kinda broke. So I totally get where you're coming from.
Honestly crafting something myself isn't that much of a problem to me... as long as I have the materials. Which I don't.
(just to give an idea I'm interested in: lolita, cosplay, furry, "regular" goth, punk/steam punk, and any artistic hobby... and I like wasting my nonexistent time playing games.)
Lolita stuff is VERY expensive and sometimes newbies don’t have the money to buy all the accessories and shoes and petticoats with the dress
If anything this shows why it's important not to judge newbies at pretty much anything - the enthusiasm is there after all, and no one gets things quite right the first few times! Very encouraging video!
YES THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!
YYeeesssssss! Especially for "niche" subcultures! There can be some really mean people in those kinds of groups that want to be picky and mean to people who don't "do it the right way", but we should encourage people to do better rather than hound their every mistake! It's so sad when I see people turn away from something they thought was cute/fun/interesting, just because an "established member" of that group told them they suck at it! :(
Exactly, it's so much better to put that energy into mentoring the new folk and passing on the pieces we don't use anymore to help them grow, or letting them ask all the questions they want. That way they won't feel the pressure and will just get to enjoy the growth and each step along the way :)
I can confirm the "lolita scam booth" theory in northern California.There was a booth at Sac Anime selling a kiss me cat replica for over $100 and they had ripped the tags off of a bunch of bodyline pieces (and cut the tags out of the actual garments) and were trying to sell them for $80.
I bought my first Lolita jsk at AnimeUSA years ago for around $80 from one of those scam booths. I was so mad when I searched online for Bodyline and saw the same jsk for $30 T_T.
Happened to me a couple years ago at Anime Expo xD I bought a Diamond Honey Dress for like $90 and I realized a few months later it was like $50 on My Lolita Dress xD A bit of a shame I wasted $40 but live and learn. Now I know xD
Awww seeing Eternal Rose Bouquet on you made me so happy, when we met in person for the first time in 2012 you were wearing that one!!
"Go back to party city where you belong!!!" IM DEAD
i literally bought that hat and wig at party city hahahahaha
Lovely Lor omg do you watch RPDR too? :D
"Tired ass showgirl!"
"At least I am a showgirl, bitch!"
My boyfriend just leaned in and said "in a perfect pastel world she would be camouflage!" 💖
hahaha yes my outfit blends into my room but I did it intentionally to draw your eyes into the photos I'm showing to make those pop more Idk if the effect worked haha
Lovely Lor It absolutely worked! You are my fashion inspiration! Thank you for being you 💖
This is just such a wonderful quote! I love this and I'm gonna write it down
I think that’s a really cool compliment, actually. I’m imagining some sort of badass Rick and Morty style Lolita dimension haha :)
*sees my tiny ass icon in one of the chatrooms* wow can't believe i was in a lovelylor video
FattyChan Same!!!
Omg I love that you call yourself Fatty-chan! Like I'm sorry but that's so funny and cute at the same time. I took a look at your content and I've subscribed. Keep doing you boo
Esther de Vries AWWW thank you!! 😭💕
It's your Kanye West feature 😎
YOUR SO CUTE
oh yeah, those scam booths exist elsewhere. a few years ago i went to a convention in lolita for the first time instead of a cosplay, and i was wearing a dress from bodyline, which i bought directly from bodyline for $40. i stopped to look in the booth because i had a few hundred dollars burning a hole in my pocket and thought maybe id find something. i found the same exact bodyline dress that i was wearing with a price tag of $150. i tried to ask one of the girls working the booth why they wanted so much for the dress and she just scoffed at me and told me that “nobody was forcing me to buy it” and “why do i care if i already have it”. i ended up walking away without a real answer. i get that everyone is entitled to charge whatever they want for their product, but still... and it wasn’t like i was going over to the other people browsing and telling them that whatever they were looking at was cheaper online. i’ve come to learn over the years of convention-going that everything in the dealers rooms is overpriced. i understand that handmade items and artwork can be expensive because of the time it took to make it and such, but i cant justify paying $30 for a pop figure that retails for $10, just like i cant justify paying $150 for a dress that retails for $40.
I think telling the people a the booth it's cheaper online is good.
SeqZZ i just try not to overstep my boundaries. if that were me in the booth i would be upset if somebody was telling my potential customers to just buy the thing online. then again, if i were the customer buying a $40 dress for $150 i would be upset if i didn’t find out until it was too late that i was ripped off. it’s kind of a no-win situation, so i always think it’s best to charge a fair price.
i also remember reading or hearing somewhere that some people were kicked out of the angelic pretty store for telling customers that they could just buy replicas of what they were looking at online for a fraction of the price. i know that’s not the exact same thing, but again, i’d probably ask somebody encouraging my customers to buy cheap replicas instead of my product to leave the store as well.
Can confirm that very same booth up north in Washington, circa Sakuracon 2018. >8T There's two that I know of, but one tends to over-sell taobao with a smaller markup, and the other just flat out sells milanoo crap and bodyline for 120% markup.
emily a
omg your twinkle mermaid/aqua princess fiasco I'm so upset ........
Honestly the Amino avatars look terrifying
yea they butchered her face.
It's so cool to see the way you coordinated the outfits with "standard" shoes! It is a good inspiration, especially for those who have shoe size problems (like myself 😢)
24:35 “I have a bear themed wardrobe” she says as she sits in front of her Rilakkuma bedspread 🐻
I've seen conventions sell Bodyline dresses for really high prices and claiming they're brand, a few years back I went to a convention and I was in the same Bodyline dress as a booth was selling and they claimed it was Angelic Pretty. That was an experience. XD
I loved watching this! Also I really appreciated you showing your older “ita phase” photos, not a ton of people are willing to share and talk about their first coords!
My first coordinate was a maid looking dress from a site at the time called “cosmates” which was essentially a bodyline reseller at the time but was in English...I begged my parents to gift it for me on Christmas when I was 13. The dress was $110
It was so not worth $110 lol.
You’ve really evolved in your style and it’s so amazing to see you be happy and feel confident, that’s what Lolita is about at the end of the day.
Thank you for this video, maybe one day I will make my own Lolita evolution video too! 💕
you're coord at 22:00 is probably one of my favorites. you're hair just looked so gorgeous
I had my lita phase junior year and because everything is so expensive and hard to get where I’m at I made my own dresses and petticoats. The first time I wore it out of the house was to a school field trip to a series of museums in DC. I thought it was best to take that risk since no one would really see me from school that day except my class on the trip. The only thing I forgot about was that we had to actually go to period one and two, so I was pretty embarrassed when everyone I walked by gave me these strange looks and in class I kept getting questioned about my clothing. That was the first and last day I wore any lita out of the house but I still have kept a bit a of sweet Lolita in parts of my everyday style, because it brings joy to my day.
Oh man, this brings me back to when I used to wear lolita, and when I found you on Tumblr and we ended up being mutuals. :P
It's so amazing to see your evolution, and how even though at the beginning you were in a community that only wore gothic lolita, you were able to not give up and ended up knowing so many people and making so many friends.
Haha I still have that same brown bodyline skirt and corset combo. I too was incredible happy when I got that thing. I wear it for steampunk now. It's pretty cute even though it is a wee bit outdated now.
There were some bodyline reseller that used to circle Texas cons (I believe they are banned now) they also sold yaoi doujin which is a weird combo.
Ngl this made me feel better about my outfits haha
i still want that caketopper hat
Woah, I didn't know you liked lolita fashion
Wow cool to see you here
Hey, can’t help but notice your wigs are very shiny and unnatural looking. Soak them in fabric softener and/or put talc powder on them if you want to take out that shine ✌🏻
Yes.
i like it when the wigs look shiny
I agree but it fits her cute ass aesthetic
Well said. I wanted to say something, but really didn't wanna be mean or come off rude 😥
Might want to just use fabric softener! Talc is really bad for your lungs.
Loved this video! I've only worn lolita for a year, so not much of a history to share :) your videos got me into the fashion in 2016 so it was really cool to retrace your fashion journey like that.
Only thing missing now is an updated lolita wardrobe vid ;D
I'm working on my dream coord right now. I got dream decoration in black jsk. I'm only missing the bag and the ring/necklace/bracelet. Its going to be my first ott coord and first go at bitter sweet. I'm supper excited.
I'm so impress with your admission of your error in your purchase of the aqua dress. Yes its helpful. Thank you. You're adorable.
This is one of my favorite videos of yours by far! I love seeing your progression and I'm happy that you're finally confident in and out of your lolita style. And as a circus performer, I totally support more circus and clown looks
The dresses are pieces of art. It sucks that you can’t see all the details of the print in the pictures. I randomly came across your channel and have no idea about any of this but as a granddaughter of a seamstress I appreciate the beauty of each dress & can understand the price.
Before this video I had no idea there was anyone interested in Lolita, based out of Utah. Thanks so much for sharing this Lor!
i really really want to be a gothic lolita but i also want to be a lolita like you are but also just a pastel goth
is it wrong or uncultured if i just switch it up?
please answer💞💞💞
It is not wrong, you can just switch up when you want.
dangboof okay! thanks for answering
Go wild!! Pastel goth aesthetics combined with lolita clothing are honestly such a look
you should just wear what you want! dont restrict yourself to one label! you could even end up having your own style! : P
Oh wow, I stumbled back to you Lor! I was into Lolita from 2010 to 2012/13 and then stopped. I never sold my dresses though. Seeing you now (and Peachie too!) is making me miss the fashion so much it's painful.
Short version is I got bullied on LJ real bad of a tongue in cheek joke. Shit thing was I was about to buy my ultimate dream dress (the blue version of the BTSSB Heart Heart Apron that Momoko wears in Kamikaze Girls) and backed out because of what happened. I had bought the headdress previously (still have it). I hope somehow, in some way, I can find that dress again. It's been so long...
I hope you find it!!
everything about ur first lolita attempt pic gives me life
14:26 okay but a wedding where one person wears kuro lolita and one wears shiro would be amazing
Gahhh that mermaid/aqua princess thing makes me so upset DX I saw a listing on LM for a Magic Tea Party JSK I've been wanting but they wouldn't show any proof photos, had to walk away :( It was such a good deal too :( But I don't trust anybody who doesn't give a proof pic plus close ups of damages. *sigh*
I’m not into Lolita fashion for myself, but I think it’s really cute on you and I think it’s cool you’re dressing up in a way you love
The closest to going to a convention ive been was going to a Pixielocks/ Jfashion meetup at animaritime two years ago
Ooo!! Your coord looks really mystical cute! I'm glad to see more lolita content from you again
My FAVORITE pic from this vid was the one with that beautiful cream dress and your natural hair!! And with the boots? Yes! Very “Where the Wild Things Are”
im starting to get into gothic lolita and horror themed fashion. from what ive seen from others i have a lot to learn as far as coordination 🖤
3:43 AHHH THATS A SQUARE DANCE DRESS I do square dancing, I listen to metal but doing square dancing is actually really fun. btw we refer to the massive pettie coats as crinolines. and they are so fun to swish lmao.
I’m new at Lolita and I just ordered my first dress yesterday and I’m super excited! 😊
I researched the hell out of lolita before I bought anything. I only have 2 dresses and a hoop-petti (like Tyler). I really want to get an actually fluffy petticoat because I want to feel the floof floof cloud-like fluffy feeling, but I gotta wait until the COVID19 thing calms down cus places with actual decent petticoats aren't shipping. I got 2 dresses, both off-brand right now (The Holy Cross by CEL in white [tho it was only so my bible thumper mother wouldn't peg lolita as a fetish fashion I cry a thousand tears. look mom they got Jesus prints see!?] and Thousands of Birds by Witch of the Heisei [TAOBAO brand] in yelllow/orange). I did buy my first BRAND dress! It's a Metamorphose dress called Twinkle Journey. Was browsing through Wunderwelt and instantly fell in love. It was the dark pink colorway and the little pegasi on it remind me of the Pegasus song (Beetoven's Symphony 6 aka Pastoral) from the Fantasia 2000 Disney movie. It was my favorite song other than the flamingo one... and the whales... but Wunderwelt wont ship anywhere until the pandemic has calmed down. I am trying SO HARD not to have a Ita-Phase. Me creating an ita coord is bound to happen sooner or later but you can't say I didn't try to resist it.
Awesome video :)
I started in 2003 and you are SO right about lolita not being anywhere near accessible to those outside of Japan at the time.
Oh heeeeeey! I also bought that bodyline skirt. Still haven't worn it to this day!
My favorite thing about you! You don't limit yourself, and are always trying new things. There are NO rules in fashion. You be you. Fearlessly.
If you can, please make an updated lolita wardrobe video, everything you wear is so darn cute
I'm going to! I'm having an issue with some pieces I left in California stuck in customs but as soon as I get them back I plan to!
You're the one who got me interested in Lolita, and I found you somewhere before that "shit lolitas says" video!
I've only ever owned 1 lolita dress, which I've never ever worn...
I'm more for drawing them, than wearing them
Never knew of this fashion until today, it's so cute! I think if I got into it, I'd definitely learn how to sew my own, though. I'd probably never try to make it "correct" to the style, but rather put my own translation of what I thought looked like something I'd love to wear in the theme of it all.
It’s very interesting that you say the Shit Lolitas Say co-ords were like “thrown together because I have this fluid memory of watching those in my late middle school years (currently a freshman in college) thinking they were bomb af and being so jealous of how much Lolita u owned lololol
I’m not even into Lolita, but I LOVE listening to people talk about their passion in detail
That's so cool that Amino sponsored your video! It shows what a strong community we must be there for them to have noticed and decided to support you. Also, it's encouraging to see you share these photos. Everyone has had an ita phase once, so when we realise that those we admire are no different, it makes them more human and us more confident that one day we'll get past our ita phase too. :)
Better than a Pokemon evolution ❤️❤️
I loved Weird Threads! That's how I found your channel in the first place! So glad it was a blip on the list here, haha
Nice to watch your Lolita Evolution Video, you've come a long way, Lor ^^
I once made the mistake of buying a Diamond Honey Dress at Anime Expo for $90 a couple years ago, but I found out that dress on My Lolita Dress for $50 a few months later xD So yeah, I wasted $40 much to my annoyance xD But you live and learn. So to all those people out there who go to anime conventions, there are people who mark up prices for Bodyline/Taobao dresses like some of the others warned. So yeah those scam Lolita booths are a thing.
I love how bright so many of your pieces are. There are lolita things that really interest me but it seems so intimidating!
This was so fun and interesting to watch! When i started out with lolita, I cheap wore halloween wigs and j-fashion dresses that weren't lolita, I did my makeup with an eyeliner pencil all around my eyes and I didn't wear a blouse, it looked horrible haha. I then started buying from Bodyline and currently I mostly buy brand clothes, so my style has definitely evolved. At first I was really into OTT sweet, now I like old school, sweet, and gothic the most. It's funny to look back at those photos but it really makes me cringe 😅 I think most of your coors were very cute even tho you were just a beginner. It's nice to see someone that has been wearing it for so long, a lot of people in my community/in my country stopped wearing lolita. Anyways I love your videos so much, you were one of the first lolitas I followed 💕
Omg I too am a Lolita from way back to 07 I rmb my first “coord” lol it was a tacky black prom dress from a thrift store with huge puffy sleeves that my friend and I (badly) altered haha with cheap gloves I got from Spencer’s hahaha sooooo it’s omg I still have it too! The struggle was real back then!
It's really weird that RUclips is so out of touch. Like people that dress in a way based on the book or film use the term nymphet or doelet. We never call ourselves Lolitas and when someone does we correct them!
I didn’t join a comm or have many lolita friends until a few years after I started wearing the fashion. I still feel like it counts because it’s part of your journey into the fashion.
The mallet really makes the leg avenue hat/bodyline coord!
im a lone gothic lolita and the comms i've joined are all full of sweets
I'm a clown and I take a lot of inspiration for my "glam" "super cute" character from Lolita I even made my first clown dress from a Lolita pattern. This video is super inspirational.
My clown's name is Gummy Bear so sweet Lolita is obviously a must.
i'm so thankful for all the stories you share and the advice you give. it makes it a lot easier to plan out my first coord! 💕
that squaredancing dress thing was just
i just
i don't
it's so beautiful
*cough*
I love your style so much!! It's also really cool to see how you've become more confident in your fashion and how you express yourself 💖💖
My family was planning on going to San Francisco but then rona ya know, but we still are gonna go eventually and I can’t WAIT to go to angelic pretty!!!!
I haven't worn Lolita is a long time and I really miss it. My life is just so crazy right now that I can't been able to express my femininity :(.
This video gives me courage to wear lolita fashion💙 I'm trying to make a not super out there but still Lolita Coord for my 8th grade "graduation". Thus video just gave me the encouragement to go for it😳🌺
I wish I had the confidence to dress like this, today I wore an ocean in space shirt and black jeans and I felt so happy and cute:)))
I honestly don’t have nearly the impressive history as you do, but I’ve been doing Lolita for like 6 years now, and only now am finding like decent quality pieces (no brand cause plus size) from taobao type sites. I’m definately gonna look into amino right now though. Lol love you lor! I hope I get to meet you some day.
i’ve been watching you for so long, it was so fun to see your lolita timeline haha! your coords are always so inspiring and beautiful!! (actually i don’t own any lolita but you were the first lolita i ever saw and this year i made it my goal to buy one full coord and it’s mostly bc i looove watching you and your videos and seeing your fashion including stuff outside of lolita. thank you for being such a positive force in the community!!! 💗💗💗)
Oh my god the photo with the brown dress I have seen on some random site with no context. So it was you!! It might have been like "what to not do ita" blah blah thing, but I genuinely thought it was kind of nice dress. (of course just not maybe the best way to present it lol) It also brought to my mind something like Acerola from pokemon even though she's all purple. It really sticked to my mind when I saw that photo because despite the random comments of how "wrong" it was, I just thought that the dress has some elements that could be turned into an actual lolita design, if it was made actually well and precisely lolita design in mind. I had like a discussion about this with someone.
omggg!!! i have the same pokemon poster at 7:11 when ur in ur first baby the star shine bright dress :0
Lor wtf I'd that wig your wearing looks like you got it from the dollar
I love the wig you're wearing in this video! I haven't been up to date with your content and don't know if you've talked about it before, but what wig is it? If you know, that is. I know sometimes people can just collect so many wigs that some fade into the deep recesses of inaccessible memory.
Loved this video :) the narrative and the visual goodness ~ very inspirational! I’m also super happy to hear that you’re feeling a lot more confident in your other fashion
The look/wig at 23:21 is phenomenal!
There are so many subcategories of Lolita these days, I wouldn’t worry about judgement from elitist.
For those asking I'm pretty sure her wig is from mintymix! They have so many cute rainbow wigs and wig attachments.
that circus coord you matched with skullita is my favorite!
I LOVE your gothic, classic, and circus coords!!
Omg, I sold that exact Bodyline skirt (from your second outfit) on Egl comm sales back in 2009.
you look amazing!!! i love how you have experimented and tried so many things!
2:46 I first discovered lolita at 14. in 2010 I guess. It's far more accessible now than it was then. It was so hard finding info and even when I was able to get good info *cough cought* subbing to you in 2015 *cough* It was still harder to find than it is now. As someone who's only been researching + window shopping for 10 years, I'll say things are easier now for a variety of reasons.
I LOVED this video, thank you so much for it! Lolita is so interesting and cute, and every time I see someone in lolita I just want to look like them and try it myself but it's so intimidating!
Brands? Coordinating? And those price tags?? 😂 Makes me wanna cry sometimes
Seeing somebody's "beginner stage" is really inspiring
Dolly House by Infanta was my very first lolita dress! When I discovered that you had it I was like "WOW I MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT" hahaha
Always a good day with a Lor post!
3:52 I love that Strawberry Shortcake calendar.
I have been wanting to get into Lolita fashion for about a year now, but it is very expensive and I am having a hard time finding legitimate Lolita pieces. Do you have any advice?
You should check out Lace Market, it works like eBay! Also, devil inspired is good but in the $20-$100 range.
You are so gorgeous!! Your style is amazing, keep up the great work!
This fashion style sounds so fun-
But I’m not very girly and I’m super shy-
i know the feeling, the style is so beautiful!
i suppose in a way dressing lolita could be a way to boost your confidence/help with being shy
Aaaaah they're so cute! I wish I had the confidence to wear all that stuff!
Omg my chat room Sweet Bloggers / Vloggers ~ Haha nice to see your style evolution...! It's so cool you have this story to share I've only recently joined lolita and I've already learned so much! hopefully we can collab some day!
Seeing the photo of you in Magic Princess brought back the memory of you visiting Houston when you were wearing it. You may not remember, but you were at J-Festival, chatting with my friend briefly and I was standing off to the side, you happened to put your phone in your pocket and I literally screamed "IT HAS POCKETS". Yeah, I was that idiot 😂. It was my dream dress at the time so ....
I'm always mortified and embarrassed about how I interact with people because I'm so darned shy 😂
I would love, love, love a Lolita mentor.
I got scammed at a convention too rip and they convinced me a size large in Asian sizes would fit me (I’m a uk 8) when M is the right size so basically it was too big not branded and I spent I think £70 on it thank god im not the only person who has made this mistake (imma research it now cause it had no label and am curious if it’s bodyline)
There's an east coast seller that does that too. Tried to sell a dress for nearly $200 that I got for $15 the month before.
Your coordinates are all so cute! I am a cheap person so I could never be a lolita but I absolutely adore your style 😊
I don't even wear lolita, I just wear like kawaii street fashion, and yet I can't stop wearing Lovely Lor.
