The first time I saw this series I thought she meant something like going back through her own pictures and saying "I should have done this instead" and fixing her OWN coordinates. Kind of like "redraw your art".
But the second I saw she was fixing others' I laughed and exited out. Blahblah log in your own eye before taking out the speck in your neighbor's eye.

iirc her first vids were about fixing her own coords and then she asked or viewers asked if they could send their coords to her for her to give advice on.

I don't mind her color matching advice, but she softballs people about hair, makeup and fit which are huge reasons why coords look like they need to be fixed.

I'm especially dying at her recommending people wear BRIGHT RED with every other coord, even when there is no red, suggesting brown loafers with sweet coords, peignoirs (and she specifically uses the word peignoirs) as well as madonna crowns.

She doesn't understand that just because people are asking for something doesn't mean she has to deliver; she also doesn't understand that what may ((sometimes, only sometimes)) work for her will not work for every other person. It takes someone with a lot of fashion sense and knowledge of body types and what people are comfortable with to help others with their own personal style. Telling a lolita who specifically mentioned she didn't feel comfortable with big headwear to wear a giant bonnet proves Lor clearly cannot do that.

It's also worth pointing out that she does no research on the main pieces she's critiquing outside of the photos submitted, like in one video where she specifically stated the colors were hard to see so her solution was purely to edit the person's photo instead of just finding stock pictures. This could be easily solved just by her requesting that submissions include the name or stock photo of the main piece they are wearing.

I’m not a fan of those military style dresses. Just a personal preference. I think I’ll get it anyway though because I love the print too much and it should actually fit me unlike the skirt. It might just grow on me anyway like many other things in the fashion did. If I hate it, it should still be easier to sell later than the skirt.

I'm not usually a downer about new releases, but this is not great. The bows look awful, the print is a bit big and awkward and definitely would've worked better as a smaller border, and overall it just looks awkward and ill-conceived, especially the non-red colorways.

It looks like you'd be able to carefully rip the stitches and remove the coorded knots and buttons from the top, and maybe do the same to the pauldrons as well.

Mind you, it takes down the resale value a fair bit, even if you resew them back later. Still, it's an idea to keep in mind.

I have a couple of AP sets where I removed the buttons, chains and strips of fabric and I like the dress way better after that. Haven't tried to resell them afterwards, though.

I have a question about taobao brands for a sweet/classic lolita, especially sweet stuff. I know there are good quality gothic shops, but I can't seem to find decent sweet stuff not from japanese brand.

I can't answer that because I haven't bought from Taobao in years but let me ask you this: If you have brand and you noticed the difference in quality between Japanese and Chinese brands is jarring, why do you want to buy more from Taobao instead of sticking to brands whose quality you like?

I've had more luck getting decent items if I really scrutinize the stock photos and check the item material.

Can't answer about sweet, but Jewelry in Sunrise's Jenny Mentha Tea (second release) and St. Tears' When the Wind OP/apron are relatively passable for classic (maybe more country) that's edging into Pink House style (not quality) territory. Quality-wise for the main parts they're hanging somewhere around very early non-lined IW and Meta Crown Label, and what you see in the pictures is what you actually get. The ribbon belt for St. Tears is a godawful satin-like material while Jewelry uses a ribbon that is similar to silk for their back lacing, but these are easy things to upgrade on your own. There are a greater number of threads to be clipped/removed than what you'd encounter with brand but none of them affect the integrity of the stitching.

Fantastic Wind's Goat Maiden is also in that range of acceptable in terms of fabric/fit/drape quality, but there're more embellishments that you need to tack down because it isn't very secure. For their larger ribbons they actually use a nice quality grosgrain but the smaller ribbons are all the sort of quality you'd find down at Michael's.

Dear Celine, Lyre Ivy, Pumpkin cat
I wear sweet-classic and these are my go-to shops. Yes, the quality will be less than of major Japanese brands, especially with fabric choices. But instead they offer a wider range of sizes, cute out-of-the-box prints and affordable prices.
Also I'd recommend to follow Chinese lolita updates and inspect stock pictures carefully. Usually poor construction and cheap mismatched materials are obvious.

They like colourpop, but tend to harp on them for boring collab releases with the same influencers over and over again.

They liked the Lancome spring releases, but both of them hated that another La Rôse Blush Poudrer was released for holiday (they did a more in-depth review in another video and said it felt cheaply made for the price, although it's a pretty highlighter. They also did another video where they made their own La Rôse Blush Poudrer with craft supplies for like 10% of the cost).

Just listen to a few minutes if you're skeptical. The podcasts I tend to enjoy most are ones that are conversational - where you feel like a fly on the wall in a room where two friends are just shooting the shit about a topic you like. That's what Beauty News is like, except focused on makeup (which is a hobby I treat like lolita - I'm always following new releases from my favorite brands and seeing what innovative stuff small/indie brands are coming up with)

You should look at MILK, and people already mentioned ETC. I don't know why some are suggesting IW and Meta, they rarely released something short and most of their releases weren't A-line. I think only their strawberry mini and airline mini JSK come very close, both impossible to find. You should look way earlier than 2013 too, not all old-school is frumpy.

after this chestnutlili/hanayoku drama, i'm a little concerned. i've bought some of wunderwelt's dresses and lots before, too. so i now have a ton of extra items sitting around - i was going to keep what i wanted and sell what i didn't (to earn back at least some of the money i spent on the lots, if just the initial prices - though shipping did actually cost an arm and a leg a couple times too.) how should i go about selling those extra items, especially if it's been a couple years since i bought them (since prices fluctuate)? what if they arrived in better-than-described condition? (for example too, quite a few times WW mentioned 'significant discoloration' but then i'd receive the dress or item and it was barely noticeable??) like, i can't exactly just sell the extra items (or dresses) for pennies, so?...

chesnutlili/Hanayoku got busted because they had multiple accounts and were selling replicas as the real thing. This isn't just someone offloading their wardrobe, this is a downright scammer. I'm not sure what shady shit you're doing that you're worried you'd be lumped in with them.

As far as being mistaken for a scalper goes, most of them do shady shit on top of buying and selling really often. One of them snipes dresses from the dream dress thread. Another just resells it without disclosing the stains and problems that the original seller disclosed.

So just make sure you do the opposite. Don't snipe other people's DD to resell. Use your own proof photos and be honest about the condition -- if an item came listed on WW as discoloured and it's actually unnoticeable, just state exactly that. If it was broken and you fixed it up, state that too. Keep the pricing low, you already admitted this stuff was damaged and only fixed up as well as you can (or in the case of discolouration, maybe your lighting is terrible or your have bad eyesight). At least you need to be lower priced than secondhand dresses that were never damaged.

If you're just having the occasional closet clearing and not actually trying to make a business ""upcycling"" secondhand lolita burando every month, you'll likely be fine.

He just has no choice but to lie to her that things are cancelled
because he can't possibly face his extended family with a girlfriend that dresses like that? Defend her? Oh no it's not worth the hassle. Sounds like they're worlds apart in values, emotional maturity and financial stability and they'll both be better off without each other.

Their latest designs have been meh-tier so this makes me very happy. I'm huge sucker for western indie because I got tall frame with big boobs.

Is it? I know there's a problem with girls coming in to the fashion thinking it'll make them ~*special*~ and efamous, but patreon isn't a very common thing for lolitas to have unless they're youtubers, and even then they're considered niche and don't exactly make a living nor get rich off it.

In a comm with hundreds of members it would take way too much time to evaluate every member individually, and at least in my comm, there are apparently dozens of people who still actively lurk but don’t comment and haven’t attended meetups for whatever reason.

That's a generous assumption to make. And imo, for every hundred or so members there should be a decent mod ratio.
>giving these members a chance to reply to a post before they get booted prevents a lot of drama
I remember when mods would actually PM inactive members to see what was going on before giving anyone the boot first, hence preventing drama.
>whether you think 'active' lurkers should remain
And that's what's retarded about self-reporting anyway because anyone inactive can still be on the page as long as they respond.
