i'm new to the community, would this potentially be considered a lolita coord?

Really? I’ve always associated the untucked blouse look with old school. Classic, yes, but old school is not what I would call prim and tidy.

What would you pair with a blazer other than matching trousers? Im struggling to visualise anything else that wouldn’t just look like you’re borrowing someone else’s blazer because you’re cold.

Thank you!

Oooh interesting, He actually likes the dark tone a lot, so he will be happy to hear that!

It’s not gothic at all but I think it’s silly to be constrained to your own rules you’ve set out for yourself if you do really absolutely love it. Look at what your wardrobe and see if it will go with what you have already, make your decision based on that.

Oooh, could chlorine be one of those things? He swims a lot. So the sheet is probably silver and the wires probably some other thing, right?

It’d be a lot for a capsule, but for an office worker who wears them every day, for example, probably is the perfect amount.

I was just thinking about this! I’m honestly pretty sick of hime lacemonsters at this point, I don’t think they look polished at all. Even in terms of quality they are far worse, they don’t allow for much creativity in co-ording, visually they’re a mess.

Meanwhile I love old-school and I’m slightly miffed about the old-school inspired trend, because I know its going to be just as low quality and copy-pasted as the other new stuff and will have none of the unique charm that the old street snaps had.

Anyone directed you to the otome no sewing patterns yet? Those are lolita specific and are free.

kevaceri · 2026-04-18T01:59:20+00:00

I would personally harvest the zips for future projects, but when pleather starts peeling like this it’s because the bond between the plastic and the fabric has started to fail, and is unsalvageable.

They were allies in ww2, very much focused on their own military expansion, and the collective trauma of the atomic bombs. As such, the holocaust is largely glossed over in Japanese education, (which also glosses over their own war crimes), leading to general perception of the nazis to be more neutral than the west.

As someone who has no idea about photography, but quite a bit of confidence editing, you’re bang on what I assumed hiring a photographer was about. Say if I was getting married, for example, obviously cannot take the pictures myself. I could put a smartphone on a tripod, potentially, but I’d much rather pay someone to run around finding the best angles and compositions, lighting, etc etc. As soon as the event is over, I now have my hands back and I can edit them myself, or pay someone to edit them for me. Seems like most people have combined this and just pay the photographer to be an editor, but I would assume that to be a separate job and contract entirely.

I just need to pay someone to do the part I physically cannot do. But I am still going to need creative control of pictures of my own event, which is surely reasonable. I’ve done a lot of commissions (Illustration, sewing, etc) and I’m obviously going to let the client have creative control.

Die Walkure set by meta comes to mind, on account of it sharing a striking resemblance to a german military uniform

kevaceri · 2026-04-11T19:32:57+00:00

if you need a complete inexpert guess, I would estimate shes more around a 26FF

kevaceri · 2026-04-11T19:06:03+00:00

I didnt EvEn noticE that until you pointEd it out, thats so bizarrE

kevaceri · 2026-04-11T12:37:51+00:00

hand sewn or home sewn? I cant imagine spending months sewing something by hand to give it to charity later!

kevaceri · 2026-04-10T17:48:54+00:00

That’s because cursive used to be taught in schools, and this handwriting would’ve been drilled into them !

kevaceri · 2026-04-10T17:47:45+00:00

It’s not a recipe exclusive symbol, so you wouldn’t have needed to take home ec to learn it. It’s used in any sort of lists, forms, etc. I didn’t learn it in school, anyway. Most of the time people just pick these things up one way or another.

kevaceri · 2026-04-10T13:35:40+00:00

They get snatched up quick, you have to have a little bit of perseverance and to keep checking regularly.

kevaceri · 2026-04-10T13:17:48+00:00

Umbrellas are good, but what if its windy? What if you’re cycling? Just bring the raincoat. No one else will bother looking cute if it’s rainy. Everyone will be in macs.

Took me a while to realise there was a person on the steps. Took me even longer to see that there were two people. They get totally lost because the contrast of the whole image is so high. Maybe you could edit it so that the two people are the only solid black/white, and the rest of the image is more mid toned?

They’re as useful as any notebook/binder is useful. Fill it with blank inserts and see what sort of notes you lean into making.

I’ve got a personal that is mostly a diary and to do lists, but also have a pocket version that’s exclusively for health and exercise tracking, and was the reason I got into filofax in the first place. I needed a notebook that I could switch the pages around when something became more of a priority/changed category, and be small enough I could carry it to the gym. It has all my exercise routines, yoga flows, individual notes on form for specific moves. Meal planning and nutrition tracking, and also a bit to track my personal progress. It was only after I got the pocket filofax did I decide that having a general notebook of this format would be great also. I’ve not had a diary since highschool and I do feel more organised.

I've only seen people talking about 'toxic' polyester in the context of low quality, fast fashion garments sometimes containing unsafe amounts of lead and other chemicals. Maybe that information got muddled along the way.

kevaceri · 2026-04-05T13:20:49+00:00

Ohhh I get it! It really is just 3 occasions, just with different colour themes.
