OH if u cant click like u can click attend on the event contest page and then vote for me under my piccy^^ thankyou!!!

I love Japanese fashion, especially lolita. I bounced around different cultures and cliques in high school and loved a lot of different fashions but I could never really find what really caught my eye. Until I saw lolita. While it is a bit too much for me and especially because it is abnormal and taboo to others because of the area I live in (Georgia. the bible belt of the south would have a heart attack) I do love casual lolita as well as clothes that have a touch of lolita flair. I love the cute dresses and rah-rah skirts with lace trims. Button down shirts with maybe a frilled collar. I also lovvve the hairbows. I dress a bit tomboyish now (this is because I am lazy and have no job to afford such nice clothes xD) but in the future I would love to incorporate more cute fashions into my wardrobe.

Some examples of cute things I love...

i love love LOVE that plaid & black jumper dress. *squee*

flouncy lacy skirts are my fave article of clothing^^

I call myself a Lolita because almost all I wear is Lolita dresses that I have bought from Japan, haha. Although my favorite style of clothing is Chinese, but I don't own any Chinese dresses, unfortunently... ^^;

ooh wat kind of chinese dresses?

I really like lolita too! I adore sweet lolita and elegant gothic lolita. I even own a few magazines called 'Gothic & Lolita Bible.' I was so thrilled to find an English version of that magazine at Borders!

Unfortunately I do not own any lolita dresses, so far I just have accessories, like headbands and one pair of shoes that lends towards gothic lolita. I have been lurking around on an online store called "In the Starlight" ...but, I am a bit timid to purchase something. The lolita store called "Baby, the Star Shines Bright" now has a shop in San Fransisco! I was like, no way! I can't wait to go back to California to visit my folks---I want to check out the store so badly!

@ Roiya: Maybe on some special occasions I can go for the full effect. x3

@ Sprinklebuns: OMG I love In the Starlight! I almost bought this dress about a year ago, but when I showed these fashions to my dad, he did not like them at all very much and it discouraged me. I remember when their dresses used to be about half the price it is now. Must be the awful economy.

That is the dress I almost got. Still want it.

@ koneko of the nekos: Yes I MUST have this dress or something like it!

Lol, I like how you took a pic using your DSi. XD I think Asian fashion is super cute, especially Korean fashion. x) But I don't think I could get away with wearing it over here because the trends are very different, and no one really wears such cute stuff over here. Also, I'm not Asian enough. :lol:

I ADORE asian fashion. They're all either so elegant, or so kooky and outrageous, or just plain CUTE! Love love love it!
I wish I owned some lolita dresses.. I have one that is kinda like them. I love it..

Aww, you look so cuuuute! n_n
I like sweet lolita. I've been into
Lolita for a while, I've only recently
started wearing it though. It's so
fun and cute. Plus, don't you just
feel a million times girlier wearing
ruffles, lace and bows? I know I do.
:heart:

That's cute in all but i could never wear it..im too big..3x (22/24).
I highly doubt they have casual Lolita plus sizes for my size :\

I would not like to wear the uber girly ruffles and lace, But I love read"LLOOVVVEEE" to see the cute girls wearing it. If I was still in high school I would likely wear such things. Now they would look silly and lame. I also would not like having so much clutter on my person. I tend to wear long dressed that are loose and shapeless.

Lolita love! :3

Best site I've found so far for Lolita dresses.

They also have bigger sizes, I believe.

And I'm the furthest from Asian and I still wear loli clothing now and then... I'm predominantly Irish/Polish.

I like them. There's something a bit exotic and cultural about them.

I love looking at all the different Lolita fashions people put together, but I myself couldn't see myself wearing them. I'm too ugly to dress up all cute.

Guro-Lolita is amazing, though.

It's scary yet cute at the same time.

I like the really crazy outfits that I guess are considered "Harajuku." (Forgive me, I really don't know anything about fashion terminology.)

It just amazes me how many things these girls can wear and still look so adorable.

I love a lot of Asian clothing. I just can't afford it XD so I figure I can just make my own clothes *nods*

This is an asian outfit I bought recently at second hand store. I absolutely love it.

Oh, very pretty - good find!

Thanks. The set was $12. I also have another piece with an asian style print that I'll try getting images of eventually. Its a deep purple robe with a gold trimmed cranes one it.

No, I'm not a fan.
I find it all costume-y and a bit cliché.
Asians don't dress like that all the time.

Very true as far as it being more costume-y.
I only saw 2 ladies in Lolita outfits while I was over there.
Most of what I saw were business style outfits save at night near the clubs where one could see about what one might see over here.

But, over all I have to say the women I saw in Tokyo were always "dressed up" by the standards I have seen in the US. I really doult I saw more then 20 t-shirts in a week over there. And that is a city over about 12 million.

The hot thing I saw alot of was stockings with short-shorts. Mostly with major color differences like Black shockings and White shorts for example.

I personally love the look of Lolita. So cute and pretty :)
