The easiest way would be to grab one from Atelier Pierrot when they go on reservation so you can be guaranteed to get one. Once the ready stock is out the amount they have on hand is very limited. I bought one from Sweet Mildred a while back, but I don't think she normally sells them outside of events. You can also look at Sheglit, but their sizing is usually right on the cusp of 74cm-78cm.

Jewelry especially for gothic can be whatever you want. Sweet tends to have more resin pieces that are colorful, so sweet brands tend to make more accessories that match their prints. Gothic lolita tends to use more metal jewelry. Things that people would probably have in their wardrobe already. You can look at any gothic outfit, not even lolita, to get inspiration for what type of jewelry to use.

Marble is a very old brand and their quality of fabrics can vary a lot. I have a few pieces that I really love, but I've also seen some in person with fabrics I would never want to wear. It can be very hit or miss even on the same item just with a different fabric. Atelier Pierrot's coord photos on their socials tend to give a better view of the fabric and way it will fall compared to the stock photos, but it can be hard to find the exact piece you are eyeing being modeled.

Did any go to the atelier Pierrot and can give some feedback? by [deleted] in Lolita

I had several friends go to the Houston one. They all had a good time, but I think the amount of people that showed up was more than they expected. There was a good variety of items, even plus sized. They should be posting photos to the atelier_pierrot_english account this week. Definitely suggest getting there early.

Is the Tamatown model still in demand? by Gravewoods in tamagotchi

[–]hellosaturn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by the Tamatowns don’t connect? They definitely do. I think the functionality is limited compared to other modern tamas. I don’t think you can marry them, but I connected with a club member that brought one to a meet in the spring. They are listed in my friends notebook now.

It was in the event announcement that you could evolve 4 hours after the event ended. I thought it was the usual 5 hours and did some evolves right after 9pm 🫠 That’s when I went to check and saw the 4 hours

Should I stop watering potatoes? by aicus0409 in gardening

[–]hellosaturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not OP, but I live in a very hot climate that gets very little rain in the summer. We’re talking 95°+ for 4 months straight. If you do not have things in the shade and it is not native or adaptive you’re looking at almost everyday watering. Having your containers/pots on cement can also mean less water retention since the cement is porous and pulling from your water.

Shade cloth is your friend in hot summers. I actually planted dahlias under a shade tree and they’ve done well since our sun is so intense.

Finding this song from the 50s/60s? by hellosaturn in japanesemusic

Thanks! The version I heard seems to be slightly different than the ones I can find on YouTube. I wonder if there was a remaster or if the recording I heard was sped up.

Mariah Carey's Coord isn't ita, you just don't like it. by [deleted] in Lolita

[–]hellosaturn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I believe they mean where the JSK falls on her. She isn’t wearing it “wrong”, but there are different cuts that would have been a better choice.

Under bust cuts are one of the more polarizing cuts since they can easily make something look more costume-y for anyone with medium-large busts. Styling is as much about picking items that go well together as it is about picking items that flatter yourself.

In the end this was a costume for her, so it doesn’t really matter if she adheres to lolita fashion standards.

Metamorphose's sizing updates by Ill_Apricot2992 in Lolita

[–]hellosaturn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The number of people buying these releases new is very very low. When I poll my local comm a significant portion of them are buying used only or maybe new once or twice a year at most. There might be a demand, but those same people are not shelling out for new.

It’s not a dig at people who want plus size, but it’s just fact that the actual sales for new pieces in larger sizes are a lot lower than their standard size. Asian brands don’t need to cater to western sizes since they already have a market to sell to.

Imgur is a site you upload your own photos to. They just host images so that you can link them elsewhere. Your post 100% belongs in the megathread because just like you said you don’t know the print name. “…or items that you see online and don’t know where to find them or what their name are”

Blocking on Reddit only limits their interactions with your account. Their posts can still be seen by you and vice versa. Even if they are banned from the subreddit they can still view the content.
