10 things you hate in Lolita.
1: The pretentious, self absorbed, entitlement issued, stuck up brats that take joy in putting others down. Grow up. Act your bloody age.
2: People who don't tailor clothing for their body type. If it's too big, take it in. If it's too small either take it out or commission something in your size. The rules apply in real life clothing so why in the heck would you think it doesn't in Lolita? You'll look better if things are tailored to your body type. Suck it up and deal. Find yourself a good tailor, that's what I did.
3: The name. It just attracts all kinds of creepy disgusting people who aren't looking at it from a fashion POV.
4: The lack of availability of the clothing. I'm lucky in that BtSSB and AP have stores in my state but I really want to get into a few other stores and ordering overseas makes em nervous.
5: Lack of proper hygiene and grooming. You got to all this trouble and expense of putting together an outfit and then you don't wash your face, brush your hair, and for some, put on makeup? Girl! I have bags under my eyes, you bet your arse I'm putting on cover up and powder. If you want to be successful in life, you have to present yourself in the best light. It sucks that our society requires it but there you have it. Not taking care of yourself detracts from your gorgeous coords.
6: Yeah I'll say it, the prices. Granted, you know that going in but man, I cringe buying a suit for the price of a Brand dress and it'll get me further in life than Lolita.
7: "Brando or Burando" Are you freaking kidding me? Learnz to grammarz and spel!! It's "Brand" and anything else makes whatever else you have to say sound less important or noteworthy or even worth reading in my eyes.
8: The Goth vs Sweet vs whatever. GTFO, you are all wearing a ridiculous outfit in the worlds eyes, you're ALL in the same boat and fashion style. Just because someone wears a darker shade than you or lighter doesn't make you any less freakish in the eyes of outsiders.
9: Driving a car in Loli. Frickin-A the petticoat is a paaaaaain!
10: People not strong enough emotionally to wear the fashion. If you put on an outfit that is guaranteed to make you stand out, OWN IT. Don't complain about how you were treated. I can see becoming tired of it but really, you know going into it you're going to get comments. Be nice to those who are positive or genuinely interested and to the ruse ones, either ignore them and let their comments roll off your back or stand up for yourself. I've not had any negative comments but the people who know me know I speak my mind and will give as good as can be dished. Not to mention I've dressed in all kinds of crazy styles over the years. But I own them all. The only time you'll ever see me say to someone insulting me, "Oh goodness me! You're so meeeeannnnnnnn!" will be the pre-curser to a very scathing remark (or 3) and a firm set down.
Thankfully, I've only had good experiences in Loli so far and am happy to keep it that way.
