I feel like clothing from Aje might appeal to you if you like the sculptural side. Pic is some of their pieces so if the shapes appeal to you then check out the website.
They are a little expensive but good quality and maintain a classic 'art - gallery' semi-stylish curator look.

Can we talk about bags? I'm in desperate need for a new one and need some inspiration, stores, brands, etc.
I'm looking for a bag that offers the following:
- real leather
- black
- shoulder strap
- closed with a zipper
- DIN A4 has to fit easily into it
- style shouldn't look elegant or posh, more grunge, goth, crumpled, but not childish (like Killstar, etc.), something like picrel
It doesn't have to be from a recent collection, I don't mind out of fashion stuff and if you have recommendations for stores (in Europe would be nice) that sell designer stuff cheaper, I will gladly listen.

As for concrete advice, what helped me the most in curating my wardrobe is knowing which silhouettes look best on me. I'm an hourglass so I like a cinched waist, A line dresses, cropped jackets. Beyond that I shop for materials that feel nice, and colours and prints that make me happy. IMO You're never too old to have a fave colour and as an adult it's your God given right to fill your space with it. As
>>290059 said, copy/paste aesthetics are only useful to a point. Try to branch out and select individual pieces based on their merit (uniqueness, function, feeling, if it flatters you). The best way to do this, I think, is thrifting and shopping secondhand. It's a lot easier to find random/interesting things that stand out from the pile, compared to a mall or something, where these days the clothes are always grouped by style/aesthetic.

>>290054Try men's silhouettes but with silk or chiffon, like the tan shirt and the green pleated pants in picrel. Accessories can really help feminine-leaning clothing take on an androgynous style, such as the Oxford shoes and black boots combined with the soft fabrics which empasize long & feminine legs/ankles in picrel. Choosing more traditionally masculine colors will also help tip otherwise neutral or feminine clothing into masculine territory.
I'm sorry if this isn't what you were asking, idk if you mean "style" as in styles/cuts/silhouettes or more like naming of specific ~aesthetics~ & when I think "low-key" I think "casual" rather than draped generally, but I hope I got your jist

>>290152Here are some more ideas: a chiffon blazer jacket can be styled very casually. Or satin cargo shorts maybe? Camo is one of my favorites for playing up masculinity/androgyny (I always say jokingly that it makes me feel NLOG kek). You can try some pieces in satin so you can keep it low-key maybe? Or like the very bottom pic, the shorts aren't super flowy but they aren't crazy thick/structured and will relax with wear, paired with a flowy, boxy (always boxy if you want to look andro) button-up blouse. I really like small details on otherwise masc/andro clothing, such as small side slits at the hemline of shirts and shorts, or smaller less visually intrusive buttons.
This also depends on your hairstyle and general ~vibe~ of your face and body, in my opinion, so your mileage may vary! If you wanna drop more info I can possibly tailor the looks and come up with different stuff! I really enjoy this kek

>>290177Google Seasonal colour analysis or something along those lines to see if you can do it somewhere locally. My mom did it once and took me along and it was just at some ladies' home lol. Basically they have you sit with no make-up on in natural daylight and drape different coloured pieces of fabric over your shoulder, and make you look in the mirror to see how a colour affects your face. Like certain colours are going to make your face look more tired and aged and bring out your imperfections and others are going to make your face look more bright and healthy. You could replicate it yourself by doing that with clothes you already own, if you have a good eye for telling the temperature and brightness/muteness of colours and how they affect your face. I saw it on my mom and I could kinda tell what colours looked worse on her after that lady had pointed it out a couple of times but it's not easy imo. Like in this pic
>>290174 I can't tell at all honestly. My mom got this paper palette afterwards like picrel and it's true, those colours do look best on her.

Pick fabric accessories like wristcuffs over jewelry that tends to be fragile and get caught in stuff.
For socks I mostly wore basic OTKs with a frill or lace at the top that you can get on aliexpress and other such places, but Innocent World socks are also everything-proof in my experience. Innocent World in general has a lot of very sturdy pieces.

>>292185how about these? you can sub out the shoes for more comfortable ones. i think a lot of similar outfits can be made with thrift store stuff cause some of these are similar to what ive worn but in different colors. also if you know your good colors, body shape that can tell you what to buy and use the most. im a cool tone that looks best in midtones and im a pear so wrap tops or a nice blouse with high waisted bottoms works well for me.

just watched Do Revenge and i fell in love with the lavender/mint color combo. i wish this was my uniform growing up, i was always jealous of the schools that had the mint dresses while we had the boring maroon ones.

So today at my local thrift store, I bought a Reformation skirt for 10$. However, I'm having some trouble making sure it's 100% legit. I am following a guide online that someone wrote for their dresses. There are no misspellings on the care tag and the size tag is sewn in next to it. The fabric tag on the waistband is stitched down on the sides, which is a sign of the real deal, according to the guide. However, that's different compared to this depop listing of the same skirt, which just has one stitch at the top of the tag, as well as white thread instead of black on the care tag. Is that suspicious, or am I just reading into it too much?
Then, there's also the issue where when I bought the skirt, I hadn't properly read the tag, and didn't realize it was a size 20 when I am a 10. Is it worth having someone take it in for me? Would love some advice.

I bought these boots recently I really love them and they’re a bit more beige/creme in real life. What could I style them with? I looked on Pinterest for outfit ideas and I like some but most of it doesn’t seem coordinated well with these boots (in my personal taste I guess if that makes sense.) I was thinking of just wearing like a white fluffy sweater and some light brown pants and then these and maybe some hat or something. I’d like to know your thoughts!

what is this kind of top called? ruffle/frill layered/tiered camisole comes up with nothing but ugly shite not in this shape at all. they were all cropped. i absolutely hate this either cropped or oversized clothes epidemic for the love of god when are clothes going to be regular sized again

>>293720I prefer cotton to polyester and I hate polyester fleece. Personally, I would look for something 100% cotton, but that's because I feel like polyester is way too warm for my taste. It also depends on the kind of cotton they used, there are huge differences, but most companies won't tell you what cotton it is. If you own lululemon and are very happy with how they lastet and if for your taste it feels nice, I would go for them.
So, for my personal taste I would only buy 100% cotton roughened french terry (don't know if you call it that in English) for sweatpants, but I'm very biased when it comes to fabric, happens when you have to work with it, kek. If you made good experiences with one brand and feel like they are still up to that standard, go for it, honestly, nothing wrong about it and yes, it's a "lot" of polyester, but for some people it's the perfect choice and polyester comes in different forms with different purposes. And like nonna before, I hate such huge logos, after all you paid good money for that brand, you don't have to be a walking advertisement.
No. 293754
>>293725Merci so much! This is good info. Sadly not a burger but I looked at the pants and they look super cozy, love that its 98 percent US cotton. I know the lululemon has a pretty high price but I'm willing to pay more if it's good quality because he tends to buy cheap H&M shit that get ruined in like a year from wear. The Roots ones do have a big giant logo kek I was thinking about that, I don't mind them on the salt and pepper colour but it looks bad on black I think.
Side note: the wesbite for the pants says
>Our experienced sewers earn up to $25 an hour and no less than $16Is that supposed to be good? 16 dollars an hour is nothing. I mean it's a dollar above minimum wage kek
>>293734wow thanks, its cool you're super knowledge about fabrics. I did a quick search for 100 percent cotton ones and couldn't find any. It gets cold here so I'm not too worried about them being too warm, I just don't want them to pill or get super rough after like two washes like cheap ones do.
Thank you so much nonnas, I think I'm going to just go for the lululemon ones!
No. 293761
>>29375416$ an hour as a sewer is a lot, in my (first world) country I would earn minimum wage in that job, that's now 12 € (around 11,50 $), before that it's been 9,50 € and we have high rents and everything got so expensive, you can't live from that kind of money. I'm a learned dressmaker and I would never earn 25$ only for sewing, kek. Therefore, I love you nonna, for paying a higher price for good craftsmanship, wish everyone would do that instead of just buying huge amounts of cheap shit they never wear.

No. 293878
>>293870I think so. If teens, who are the easiest to push trends onto and care the most about trends aren't wearing them then I'd say they're out of fashion. You can still wear them and be cute though, who cares.
>>293875The less texture, the better. Sorry I can't be of more help nonna. I'm surprised that the smooth material of the pants (?) you thrifted
are picking up a lot of hair. Make sure you vacuum a lot, too.
No. 293884
>>293870Yes and no. Yes they are out but anyone who's not a fashion
victim will see that there's still plenty of women and even teen girls wearing their skinny jeans because most people can't and/or don't want to change their whole warderobe on the whims of the fashion trends.
>>293720This is the unpopular opinion but I'm not actually a big fan of cotton pieces, especially bottoms. I started switching to 100% cotton pieces when I realized how much nicer this random cotton shirt I got felt and how my other clothes suddenly felt like plastic in comparison. But after a while of wearing my new cotton purchases I noticed that I had a much tougher time getting stains out of my new pieces (turns out natural fabrics indeed stain more easily when I googled it) and my cotton jeans ripped noticeably quicker than my polyester blend jeans. So I'm personally leaning towards believing that cotton/polyester blends are actually a decent choice.

>>293860I don't own a dryer and therefore have to let it dry indoors and I put on the heating in the room the stuff hangs to dry, only solution so far, as I can't put it outside because of 24/7 smoking neighbours
>>293875>>293878sometimes it has something to with the dye they used, when it's more "on" the fabric, hair can stick to it. Fabric production and resources used is a very big area and depending on what they use and how they process things you will have different outcomes. For example you have different length of cotton fibres and the shorter the fibre, the more pilling you will get, as there are more fibre ends sticking out of the fabric. If I have the choice, I prefer pima cotton (extra long stable cotton) and if you like a silky and more "shiny" appearance, look out for mercerised cotton. When I go shopping I take a small fabric piece that always loses a lot of lint with me and go over the thing I might want to buy with it, to see how much keeps on sticking on the fabric. I also test the things I would like to buy if they lose the dye very fast with a slightly wet piece of white fabric.
Polyester just has the advantage that the person making it can decide which characteristics the fibre should have and they can make it that way. That's why most sportswear is made of polyester, it dries faster and you can equip it with stuff like "anti smell" things, etc.

No. 294352
>>294310the easiest rule to follow is to combine more fitted clothes w/ looser clothes, ie a baggy top and more form-fitting pants, or baggy/wide-legged pants with a tighter top. this is why her center outfit looks the least cringe (imo), cause at least it kinda has that balance that the other two lack, until you get to her goofy shoes.
the other option would be to create kind of a "shapeless" silhouette through all oversized/baggy clothes, but those are harder to give advice on. the two outfits on either side are truly hideous, and part of that has to do with how chaotic the silhouette is

>>294586that's just it, the fashion industry is one of the big factors to environmental pollution, but it's more important to be trendy than owning what you really need. The last bag I bought was cheap and made out of faux leather, after 2 years the upper layer comes apart and I can put that bag into the trash. My leather shoes I've been wearing for 5 years now, a little bit of leather care and they look like new, if I resole them in the future, I can wear them the next 5 to 10 years.

Looking to buy some warmer clothes for winter since I don't have many clothes. Kept seeing ads for this kind of coat, and I can't decide if I love or hate it. I think it almost looks a little too cutesy and a bit too much for day-to-day wearing. Might keep looking, but a more subdued style would be cute. I guess I like the shawl and bows and the like.

>>295240Because women are forced to participate in fashion as part of beauty standards, most beauty sites aimed at women will be relatively normie. Men who are into fashion are doing it out of choice, not obligation, which is why male fashion blogs tend to be more in-depth. Without gatekeeping, most female fashion forums will become general "what clothes wear" forums over time. If you want, start an "expensive/designer fashion" thread and state that it's for discussion of high fashion, I'm sure several nonnas will join you there.
If you're looking for a community, try /r/ffacj_discussion. It's slow but unlike /r/femalefashionadvice you won't get pilloried for wanting to buy expensive clothes. /r/expensivehumanfashion is gender neutral and mostly operates on their discord, but is much more active. PurseForum is exclusively focused on designer brands and relatively active, but it's mostly for purses and shoes, and it's a very particular aesthetic.
the-rosenrot.com has the blog of actual fashion designer with good commentary. youlookfab.com is aimed at old ladies but posts a lot of trends and pricier outfit recs. bluecollarredlipstick is a blog and an instagram of an artsy woman who posts both on fashion and interior design and the connection to art history.

>>295989>>295910It sounds like the styles you like are modest, feminine, and fun. Lolita and vintage can both be pretty overwhelming if you don't have much of a fashion sense yet, so I would recommend starting with things that are more toned down. It'll be easier to style and you'll feel more confident. I'd start out with 1 or 2 pairs of nice neutral colored shoes, some cardigans (boleros are pretty in right now and should suit your taste), and some casual dresses.
If you don't know what brands/styles you want start with, explore for a while on Pinterest/insta/TikTok. Some keywords to start with might be "twee" (not super trendy right now but whatever) "softgirl" "girly" "pastel". To make sure you don't go for inspo that's out of date, try to make sure it was posted in the last ~3 years. Also, try buying your clothes in person first.

So, I've had this hat my bro gave to me for a while now, I wear a lot of hats, so I've been wanting to wear it but it never looks good with any of my usual attire. It just looks out of place on me I guess. How would one go about styling it? If it's one of those pieces that takes a special person to pull it off, or a very dedicated sort of style I may wait to find the right person to give it away to, since I hate seeing these things go to waste.

The all black forums would go really well with the darker portion of my closet. They remind me of early 00s skate shoes I used to wear in middle school kek. But I fear they will look dated in a year or two. Idk I really like them but I think they're a bit too gorp core for every day wear?

Otherwise, kinda similar but less edgy because not leather, pants and shoes like picrel, shirt fully tucked, black beret maybe?

>>298027You're kind of like me. I generally don't care about what I wear too much and am not that creative and so I stick to basic pieces/neutral palettes. This has led me to wear east coast ivy league prep style clothing. It's really basic and my clothes usually consist of a sweater, jeans, loafers, basic t-shirts, and cardigans. However, this is a very costly fashion style. If you wear the wrong, cheap pieces you'll look incoherent or like a tryhard. If you overdo it (wearing pieces like tennis sweaters outside of the court), you'll look like a preppy caricature. Requires a lot of research and has a list of brands to buy from. It was simple enough for me and the research was fun. Also wear more colors that suit your skintone; this is especially easy to follow in a neutral palette. The image you attached is pretty frumpy. Make sure you have clothes that actually fit you and flatter your body.
It unironically feels rebellious to wear too amongst all the gaudy Depop type outfits people wear now.

Think rolled up pants cuffs, patched up blazers, unbuttoned or rumpled collars, pattern mixing, worn down shoes, short hemlines, sportswear worn with more formal clothing for a high low mix. Business casual is meant to look rather boring and sexless-the most you can get away with is a loud print. While a blazer, an Oxford shirt, and a pair of loafers may be items the two styles share in common, one would wear different items or style them differently in both contexts. As much as J.

I know anons love Iris Van Herpen here but which big name fashion brands or houses are your favorite or the best in your opinion? I love Dior, esp when Galliano did their couture collections. Im also liking the Maria Grazia Chiuri years, but I consider Raf Simmons to have been a bust even if profits grew during that time. Picrel is a cottage core look from Galliano’s years as creative director—that tiny man was ahead of his time. I’m usually not a fan of cottage core stuff either. I also love Galliano’s usage of rococo, mod, and 1920s(?) fashion.

nonnies, please help. I have to attend a wedding and I thought I would feel confident in a dress I had already, but I'm going through something hormonal. I have a big cyst on my ovary (next ultrasound will determine what gets done about it), and I look puffy where normally I have a slim/flat stomach. I've been working out as normal and dealing with the pain but it's driving me insane that am going to my friend's wedding and potentially looking weird or bloated.
Some of it is my BDD but I don't care, I want to look pretty and not weird. The dress isn't bodycon or anything but now I feel like I want to cover up. I will reply later with a pic because this fucking moid sitting behind me keeps gawking at my screen whenever I pull up dress, fuck him. It's a spaghetti strap dress kind of like picrel, just shorter (right above my knee) and with more chest coverage.
Is there a type of blazer I could get to make myself feel better? Not necessarily to cover the abdomen but as a mental comfort for my BDD? Or is there a universally flattering dress I can buy somewhere? Wedding is in a warm climate. Dress code is "festive" or basically whatever we want. I'm 171cm, size small but with larger chest (28 or 30E cup size). So I need to be able to wear a bra. I have a strapless bra already. I just want to look cute and confident even if my abdomen looks puffy, nonnies

>>297433, careful with the color. I have a pink one and the stains don’t lift much. The material it is made of makes it naturally water resistant, but I’ve heard that you still have to be careful and gentle when washing of course. I would take mine to school and the blue sweaters I would wear left blue stains all over the back and bottom. I really hate it, and I only noticed it until it was too late. It also just has a lot of stains on the edges. That being said (I’ve also had mine for 5 years), it held up. The only thing wrong is that the zippers inside tend to fray a lot.

>>303103>>303150I miss 2010-2016 fashion because it felt unapologetically cute. It had simplicity while still having detail. I’m not even minimalist in my fashion, but I feel like lots of the fashion I see nowadays is shit flinging to see what sticks and being bored. I also feel like maybe I’m really stuck in this kind of fashion because it was something I felt I understood inside and out. I’ve seen how fashion developed after this, but I didn’t feel like I was part of it anymore. I’m glad lookbook still exists so I could look at old outfits like this and old lolita coords.
I love the way annika victoria would dress, and this outfit is older then when I would watch her but I like it nonetheless.
I’ll admit that sometimes I look at the pulp girl zines shit tuna used to be a part of and find inspiration in those outfits. No. 304420

I have stupidly shaped feet (wide in the front, super narrow in the back) and I want to dress more femininely but I cannot find shoes that look cute and fit me. Flats fall off my feet, same with high heels and Mary Janes make me look like a frumpy churchgoer. I have thick ankles so ankle straps are also no-go

>>304481The outsole and heel, you can't see well on that image because it's on a black floor but the outsole is a black platform and then a heel has this glass look to it. Picrel is on a lighter background. Olympia Le Tan are stilettos. Toe box and heal seam on the originals are also more ballet shoe like. When you take a deeper look they're not that similar, no one really owns the ballet shoe style, if Le Tan's didn't have the little bow on the toebox I wouldn't have made the connection.

So I got this dress for an event next month, and I can zip it up but it wrinkles a lot along the sides not like the picture even though it’s a thicker fabric, especially around my waist. Is this a sizing issue or an issue from it being strapless? I like it and how it fits overall but this kind of makes it look sloppy imo which bothers me because I want to look my best

>>308103Pay attention to seams. How is the stitching? Are there any loose threads? Are the seams reinforced? If there’s a pattern, did they match up the pattern? Seams are a good indicator of quality.
Design warning signs to look out for: drawstrings, non-functional pockets or buttons, exposed zippers, sheer and flimsy fabric, tops that only have a pattern on one side, unlined dresses/jackets/skirts. While these are not always indicative of poor quality and can sometimes be stylistic choices, they tend to show that the designer cut corners.

I am not sure if this really counts as fashion, but does anybody have any suggestions for exotic/trendy but still good quality lingerie? I've been recently wanting one or two pieces/sets of the impractical lingerie you see cows and ethots preening in (such as this example that Shayna wore kek. I find it cute, sue me), but a lot of it comes from cheap ass places like Shein. I'd take something a bit less "trendy" in design if it means that maybe it's not doused in industrial chemicals.

I've considered getting one or two of these shirts since they look easy to style with what I already wear often, being white or light colored shirts, black pants, boots, casual jewelry and sometimes a hat. Dunno if there's a point in going into the specifics. I already own button down shirts in both white and black, and I wonder if a sleeveless one would look cute when the weather gets hotter, but when I looked to see if I wanted to buy one, most of them seemed rather thin and poorly fitted, so I decided not to buy any, since it would just look baggy and sloppy rather than cute and casual. Has anyone made these work? I like wearing white button downs with black pants because of the versatility, and I wonder if I'm honestly just being autistic about this and there's no point in even fussing over something so minuscule when I already noted that most of them seem poorly fitted or of low quality material.

any tips for breaking in mary janes? i just bought mine mindlessly and although they were thrifted they honestly look brand new with little to no creases and therefore are hell to wear. apparently these types of shoes are really difficult and i haven't got any shoe expanders to help, and speaking of which are they really a good investment or not?
No. 311875
>>311808It depends on how large your bust actually is and your overall silhouette and build.
Commonly given advice like "minimal details in the chest area" might not work for a tall, wide shouldered woman with a more dramatic inverted triangle body type for example, I am something like a 30I with this body shape and it looks better if I go for a 80s type silhouette and proportionally large details that will fill the wide surface, rather than small things that will make me look comically wide due to disproportion.
If you are a more "common" kind of busty with an all over balanced body shape see
>>311869 and also, V-necks and wrap tops are indeed solid advice for every body type. My own personal controversial piece of advice is keyhole/boob window tops (if you have a good bra there won't be too much cleavage) they look elegant if you pick a color like wine red or beige in a ribbed knit and wear them with pants, and another thing I rarely see recommended is getting a good quality denim top that can hold your breasts by itself, it's good for summer.

>>312388It's not just the waist that would be an issue though. I either find pairs that fit me when it comes to the waist but that are way too long AND large for my legs, or it fits for my legs but I can't even actually wear it because my ass can't fit inside at all. I think if I were to buy a pair of jeans in that situation I would have to change too many things for it to actually look good on me. I thought about just buying pairs that are a bit too long and just make them a bit shorter but they would still look bad on me for other reasons.
>>312394> By the way, Zara and Mango have pretty okay jeansIt's been years since I went to Mango, I should check the store nearby because the last time I went there I had a much smaller budget and I was too skinny to wear anything from there. As for Zara, I hate it. I feel like I can't find basics because of how often they change their collections, everytime I find good things there it's a coincidence. Last time I went there a few weeks ago I only bought two tops because all the pairs of jeans I found looked like pic related at the ankles and there's no way in hell I'm wearing this at my job.

I don't know how to find examples of more casual stuff though, to me, cute keychains and wallets are things that either suddenly appear in your home, are gifted to you by chance, you found them on the ground or you searched all over the world and stumbled upon them after getting lost during a long trip to some obscure town.
I have lots of bad luck finding cute wallets and keychains.

>>312720I just think the cute patterns of my Amazon underwear are cute enough, when my underwear has stuff like lace, tiny bows and such, it can be noticed and then I only wear my cutest underwear at home when I'm really in the mood for feeling extra and when I know I won't be walking around for too long.
Women's secret is quite awesome tbh, I bought some really cute packs of underwear a long time ago but they got stolen so I don't know if they're durable or not tbh. I also think they don't deliver to the USA but I'm illiterate so I don't know.

I’ve come to realize I hate pretty much all modern western clothing and cuts. I wish it was socially acceptable and practical to wear traditional historical clothing from whatever culture you want, it’s just so much more beautiful whether eastern or western.
I also wish it was easier to find pure silk versions instead of just polyester larp garb.

>>313025I have these two ideas for you, the pink dress is cute, I honestly think it's better to look overdressed than underdressed.
I don't know about sweating tbh, just wear a really strong deodorant and take any pictures with your arms up before the party begins, then check yourself out in the bathroom from time to time if you're very self conscious about it, maybe keep some wet wipes and napkins around to clean yourself throughout the party.
I think these two dresses are nice, I'm also looking for ideas with pants, I will post them later.
These dresses are fancy but classy, the length of both are nice, not too long, not too short. And you could wear boots with them as long as they're not straight up frumpy combat boots with wear and tear.
You could wear some nice, simple tights with some really nice boots, I will post examples of nice boots just in case.

>>313015Voriagh, Little Women Atelier, Linennaive, Kaneko… Most of these type of brands are expensive though.
If you don't mind synthetic fabrics you can probably find fancy stuff on Taobao as some chinese lolita brands such as Miss Point and Foxtrot also sell more subdued vintage inspired pieces. If you have a lower budget, browse secondhand fashion sites for vintage pieces (lots of pieces with 30s-40s vibes that are actually from the 80s and therefore cheap, also look for brands that sell dirndl, they sometimes carry more unconspicous long skirts/dresses made of plain linen and some nice blouses). Pinup brands like Hell Bunny, Collectif, Banned etc. sometimes sell suitable pieces as well, especially around fall when they pull out the tartans and all that, and you can find them secondhand for decent prices.

I'm going to focus on texture, dyes, customizations and high quality statement items. Unusual fabrics for structured items like over sized leather blazers, iridescent two-toned velvet dresses that hug and amplify everything. Prints don't matter as long as the colours match; gold jewellery shaped like coins, hardware & figa hand charms. Whatever you think you'd discover in a welsh bog, I want to wear as an accessory or in my wavy hair.
I still wear whatever I like around the house & gym but I'm moving away from lolita and want to keep some fun/whimsies to my everyday dressing in the form of an annoying pun-telling horse ghost that doesn't know when it's not welcome.

>>313869I'm not sure if I've been depressed tbh, but whenever I have too many intrusive thoughts I go for the safest options, it's always good to keep some blouses or button up shirts around, loose ones with neutral colors or with colors that you really really like, so you can put on some denim pants and any shoes, preferably something like flats or moccasins even.
Whenever I feel sad I try to look as decent as possible so I can make myself feel better, as in wearing clean clothes that kind of match each other.
So yeah, don't go all black, try to add some colors or patterns, like maybe an animal print sweater or with flowers, get some funny socks, try to match your hair accessories with your clothes and glasses, being all matchy matchy with your stuff is a good way to lift your spirits because then, when you look at yourself, even if you're wearing some frumpy pajamas, you will feel like you're at least somewhat trying.
And you may not think it's important but it's actually important to have underwear that doesn't have any holes or random bleach spots, having clean and neat underwear is nice, you don't need to wear shit with lace and sheer parts, just having some cotton underwear that's clean, doesn't have any holes, fits you nicely as in it isn't too tight or too lose and matches even if they're not from the same brand/store, feels great.
So start from the smallest stuff, like your underwear and hair accessories that you use to keep your hair out of your face, match your home slippers, your socks and such, doing so can make you feel better because you will feel like not everything is out of control.
And make sure all of your clothes are okay, if they have random holes that shouldn't be there, damaged patterns and such, then you will have to donate those, if they're too tight or too lose, donate those as well and get new stuff that fits or maybe learn how to recycle your old clothes or even sell them.
Cleaning up your closet and making it all matching and "limited" helps a lot with keeping everything organized but it also helps with making yourself look more sharp I guess.
I'm rambling but that's just what I tend to do so I feel better, I hope this works.

>>315123Depends on which country the brand is from. If the country is somewhere obesity is common, the sizing will be bigger and it has more to do with buyers being fat/tall rather than vanity sizing.
For example, Asian brands have super small sizing while American brands have much bigger sizing because the average Asian and American women obviously have different bone and body structure along with weight and height difference.
Your best bet is to find a brand that's fitting to your bodytype and get the pieces tailored to fit even better.

>>315460You can try ironing on some of these denim patches inside the garment or if you sew, use scrap fabric and sew the shit out of it inside the pants (look it up for instructions). This is only semi-related but maybe it will help someone- If you have the issue of shorts riding up your crotch area when walking, you can sew a strip of fabric along the length of the crotch and it will eliminate the issue. I can't seem to find a pic of what I mean but there are also products- google "polyester boning for shorts".

I like the boots and the dress together. I'm getting Stevie Nicks vibes. I don't really like the gold with the cool-toned colors dress though, but I really, really dislike anything gold. I think it could be cute with a crochet hippie vest and tons of matching gold bracelets, bangles, maybe even a little chain belt? Like a maximalist bohemian look. I have no idea what your preferred style is though. Along that same vein, a cute kind of bag could be something suede with fringe (the different textures of the bag and boots could be neat), or maybe a white hand-tooled leather bag with gold hardware? Not sure how you feel about mixing metal colors but a silver bag might look nice? Not sure about that though. If you want an extremely elevated look, picrel could be nice. I like how it plays off of the crescent shape of the boot jewelry.

Any suggestions for “whimsigothic” or witchy clothing? I feel like most goth clothing sites are trying hard to be edgy and make cheap/trashy looking clothes. I wanna get into wearing skirts more that I can be comfy in but look good wearing boots/close-toed shoes with cause my toes are fucked.
I liked picrelated until I realized how sheer most of the skirt was and it’s actually more like a veiled mini-skirt.

i wish i was rich. Zimmermann is the only designer brand that has styles i really like, in my dreamland i would have a whole closet full of the pretty, flowy stuff.
i found a romper/playsuit in a thrift store for $5 several years ago. i hate that type of clothing but i bought it because, great deal (it was originally $415 or so), and to wear pants/a skirt over or layer with a blouse underneath. it looks cute that way.

>>316487i tuck in the straps into the bra (strapless bras options are the wrong shape for me and I'm done trying new ones) or wear bra-sized multi way bikini top and make it strapless. if the armholes are low then i wear either a matching tube top to the dress/top or one that is close to my skin tone. low backs/lace or mesh backs are not possible, so if I am wearing one i just make whatever im wearing look like it's supposed to be part of the outfit.
and I want to mention that the bra band does 90% of the support, so if you are wearing bras where you think you need to have the straps support you, and are thinking you cannot tuck the straps into your cups, you are wearing the wrong size and need to size down in band an up in cup.

I love folkloric 'fashion' and I want to wear aprons like picrel (not daily but on days that I'm doing something fun). I feel like it's kind of weird and out there, I don't care that much what people think but I'm scared it might look like a strange costume and not the cute way I see it because it's so uncommon.

I've been thinking of somewhat changing my style (which is not really cohesive anyway), but I'm facing a personal morals dilemma. I have a lot of clothing and it's good quality but I don't feel like all of it reflects me anymore. Many things were bought by my mom and while she has a good fashion sense, I wish the clothing was more outlandish and edgier and reflected my personality more. I care about being low-waste, consuming less, and being thankful of the things I have, so I don't really wanna shop for new pieces. Even though I'm excited about altering some clothing to suit changing styles, it also feels like a burden because I am very swamped with work and with my schedule altering all the pieces I want to change will take a long time. Not everything can be altered to suit my changing tastes, either. Picrel is sort of what I want to transition towards: I want to express my alternative side more with modest/draped clothing but still maintain my love for feminine and romantic fabrics. It seems like it would be hard to change some of my clothing into looser styles. Lots of pieces are 2016-18-ish, if you can imagine the sorts of cuts that were popular then.
Does anyone have any thoughts f helpful advice for changing styles while working with what you have and buying less?

No. 320337
>>320051>>320051Sewing can be relatively affordable if you're willing to be thrifty. When I started out sewing I practiced on old duvet covers people gave to me or purchased at the thrift store for 2 or 3 euro and even today I have garments made from thrifted fabric, threads, patterns and zippers. If you live in a city you probably have fabric markets where you can get ugly polyester fabric for almost nothing but that's good enough to practice on. As far as a machine and basic supplies goes, almost everyone has a woman in their family who has a sewing machine you could lend or alternatively you could hand sew if you really, really don't want to or can't get your hands on a (cheap) sewing machine.
Space wise you don't need more than a table to work on and space to store a sewing machine, a few basic supplies and a bit of fabric. You don't have to hoard tons of fabric and supplies like you see seamstresses online do. So yeah it's true it requires a bit of space (but nothing major) and it's true that it's time consuming, but that's true for a boatload of hobbies. Hobbies don't have to be time efficient, you're not working for a boss. Anyway, at the end of the day it was just a suggestion. Do with it what you will.

Okay so I'm a huge autist when it comes to fashion and I'm going to participate in a big student show/event soon, where I've basically been told I should wear black if possible. I have a plain black button up shirt, but no completely black trousers (I don't have any skirts or dresses). Closest thing I have is a pair of loose trousers with a dark green check/tartan pattern (similar to picrel except wider and the pattern is more discreet).

The "buy things that fit your body type" thing I hate. What is "flattering" for my body type? Am I stuck wearing the same silhouettes because of my body shape? It has such patriarchal undertones, why must we wear things that flatter us when we can wear things that we like? As long as I’m comfortable and I think it’s cute I’m wearing it.
No. 320881
>>320878No one means "you should wear clothes you hate the look of and make you feel perma-uncomfortable so you can look your ultra-best for the eyes of men" when they say "wear what flatters you". No, all they're saying is if you're interested in fashion for the purpose of looking good outwardly, which is true for a LOT of people if not most, wearing what flatters your body type is a good way to go about it. And you don't have to sacrifice what you like or your comfort for that. You can have all three at the same time.
People like looking good for others whether they wanna admit it or not, big deal.
No. 320890
>>320878Nona you sound confident in your body and style so you probably already know this but wearing clothes that flatter your body doesn't have to mean strictly sticking to certain silhouettes and avoiding others. I think of it as just being aware of your body so you can choose clothes that balance it nicely and get you to your desired look.
For instance, I love boxy silhouettes and long, straight dresses. On my pear-shaped body though, a plain straight dress would cling to my hips and be loose on top which is not at all the style I want. So I've found workarounds like choosing looser fabrics, dresses that cinch at least somewhat on my waist, wearing two-pieces, etc. It's also not like we "can't" wear certain things, we just won't be as confident or happy in them if they aren't working for us.

>>321037>>321053Both pics are a bit too "out there" for my taste and I would never wear any of these outfits but I do appreciate the self expression in all 3 outfits and would love to see more people dress like this irl. Tbh what really ruins the tiktok outfit for me is the fact that it looks uncomfortable to wear. At least the fruits outfits looks quirky while also being practical and something you can wear on a daily bases. The bead shirt in the Tiktok outfit looks like it will limit your arm mobility and it will probably feel heavy after a few hours. Also personally I would never wear an outfit where my bra is in focus but you do you.
My style isn't has quirky as any of these but I do dress more quirky than the average normie (I do conside my style normie myself but many normies has told me otherwise so I dunno) and I like to showcase colours and patterns while also wearing outfits that are comfortable to wear

>>321037I don't mind weird outfits that aren't just shein egirl crap. Really like the idea of the matching hat and tie/belt, it looks pretty cool even though I'd rather see it on a different type of styling. The lipstick/makeup is absolutely horrendous though. Imo the overall lack of thought put in make-up is really what makes the difference between western harajuku LARPers and the street snaps they try to resemble (along with a tendency to over-sexualize everything but it's not really the case here).
I wish she'd used a baby tee or some other kind of actual clothing instead of the bra because it looks really out of place with the overall childish theme, and her arms being bare when everything else is cluttered makes it look unbalanced too compared to
>>321053 where it looks more harmonious due to the even spreading of items over the silhouette (the phrasing is weird but idk how else to say it) Also I think it would be interesting if she did a full tartan outfit with that bra, hat and tie belt.
>>321064"Silly" isn't a slur, anon.
>>321094It really depends on your life. I used to wear lolita every day but another girl in the same college as me thought it wasn't worth it and only did it on her off days, which is what most people do, they wear it on the week-ends or to meet up with others.
In Harajuku people would sometimes dress up and go out for the express purpose of being street-snapped before the skyrocketing of social media, it exposed their "art" to the world and allowed them to meet more people as well.
There aren't many jobs where you can wear super outlandish things daily. And to be entirely honest I've never met an all-day-everyday wearer who wasn't at least a bit insane, including myself. This being said, a lot of TikTok fashion content is pure LARP, and these outfits have never seen the sunlight once. Even popular scrote fashion youtubers have videos about it because it's become a problem for fashion enjoyers as a whole and not just Kera-loving thrift hoarders.

>>321205The most simple and straightforward way is to begging with common clothing items (A shirt and pants for example) in plain colour and with no patterns. Then you can guide yourself with the colour wheel, wearing at max 2 different colours at once at the star so you can get familiarised. Then you can start adding more colours or even patterns. And remember you can always aid yourself with neutrals (black, white, grey, beige and brown) for accessories, shoes and makeup. Neutrals rarely clash or fight other colours but still be vigilant.

Can cream and white be mixed? I hate having to chose either one in an outfit. I feel like it’s possible, like in picrel, but I’m worried I can’t pull it off correctly. But is it a faux pas to mix these two, like brown and black or navy blue and black? I feel like it’s too good to be true for me to get and use nice white and cream pieces and not have to pick a side per se.

>>322087I have two tastes in clothing tbh. I've always loved the anti-fashion movement of the 90s and minimalism, but i also love lolita. Two polar opposites of each other. I am darkly inclined and have always loved goth shit, but have learned that i looked horrible in it and i hate how much most alt fashions rely on makeup. Lolita is the rare alt fashion where you can literally just get away with wearing no or natural makeup, plus it just feels very luxurious, especially velvet pieces. My love of clothes just feeling nice extends to normie clothes too, i am picky as fuck and will pay extra for nice cotton and real leather. Thankfully, i rarely go out and i am proud to be an outfit repeater so my wardrobe is actually a lot smaller than you'd assume it is. I can fit every item of clothing including shoes in one of the american built in wardrobes and still have tons of space, you could comfortably sit on the floor or move stuff to the side.

>>322734For starters, learn how to wear the clothes you got already. Meaning, learn how to properly tuck in specific types of shirts or roll parts of them up.
Second, learn to pick colors that fit your skin tone and hair. If you have pink skin probably picking a red is a horrible idea while picking a green is a great one.
Third, add more mature versions of stuff you feel is immature. A short skirt you don't wear anymore but like still, maybe find a longer version or a more refined one.
Lastly, most people can't guess your age right until you hit maybe early 30s so just enjoy looking young.
No. 322757
>>322749NTA but people absolutely can guess your age and people in their mid 20s can sometimes look a bit silly still dressing like teens, so why not start building your wardrobe earlier with a few more mature pieces and just have it evolve naturally. This doesn't apply to alt styles like lolita where there's only one silhouette obvi, but a 25 year old isn't going to look like a teen.
Mature isn't a slur either so I'm not calling OP old, I just made the same mistake of dressing like a teen for too long and when I look back at old photos when I was 23-25 I could've looked like such a beautiful young woman if I'd aged up my outfits just a tad.

When I turned 21 I got it in my head that it would no longer be acceptable to wear t-shirts or hoodies outside of the house, so for 2 years I would only wear ankle-length black skirts, dress pants, turtlenecks, and blouses outside of the house, no matter the occasion. Even getting milk at the convenience store.
It may have been a passing remark my mother made about how I will need to "dress nicely" when I get a proper job later (ie. 4 years in the future) and how it's sad that young people don't dress up like in the 40's-50's (before her time, by the way).
All that's shifted now is that I dress in a more masculine version of this and also take more care with textile choice. This is probably more socially acceptable than looking like a nun but I also stopped caring.

>>324046It's from 4chan
>On 4chan, the imageboard originally founded as a discussion forum for anime fans, the "Chinese cartoons" joke has spawned a series of insults directed at anime fans on the site. The structure of joke originated with trolls accusing others of talking about unrelated subjects on boards like /a/, which is specifically devoted to anime, by saying "why are you discussing this on a Chinese cartoons forum?" In response, people would create long reaction threads by coming up with different types of titles for the board, using the format "[Country of Origin] [Skill or Hobby] [forum or board]."[8][9] No. 324541

>>324468Black tie for women usually just means long or "semi-formal", so you can get away with a plain old long dress. Make sure your heels aren't mega tall stripper stilettos or super chunky peanut butter. minimal and short jewellery, specially if you're gonna dance, that way you won't have to worry about it getting tangled or lost. Also on an end note do NOT wear a slit for all that's gracious, you will look TRASHY.
If you're still in doubt here's a comprehensive, although kind of pretentious, guide for said occasion and dress code.

Hey ladies, I got a dress for a wedding coming up in less than two months, and it fit terribly in the chest area.
I am nervous to buy online again, but i need sage green (can be a lil darker) dress that is not formal, but nice enough to be a bridesmaid. Bride wants us casual and comfortable, but i mean… what the fuck is that supposed to mean. Im in a dress, no comfort there.
I technically could wear a 2 pc skirt/pants with a top. I am a size 10/12 but i am almost 6 ft tall with boobs that are too fucking big.
If i buy a plus size dress the boobs will have room, but then i will look frumpy and baggy everywhere else.
My anxiety over this is causing nightmares. Heres the invitation, and that has the colors on it. Anyone, can you help?

>>324856Go for an "A line" dress, this silhouette fits all body types and shapes unless you're hopelessly deformed. It comes in various styles and lengths, so I'm sure It'll be easy to find one that you like and accommodates to your needs. Picrel is just a few examples of what won't make you look out of place, semi-formal and comfortable. Just stay the fuck away from silk unless you are willing to pay top dollar for high quality silk, which will put you in the thousands, or else you'll look cheap and ugly.

>>324872These would be ok in 2010, the middle one is the most current but definitely not universally flattering.
>>324856How about a simple suit in a fun color instead? It'll be easier to wear after graduation.

Nonas what do you think of 2009-2014 tumblr fits like pic rel making a comeback? Like the scene queen aesthetic, I’ve been seeing mini revivals of it on tiktok among zoomers and it makes me really nostalgic for that time (skins, crystal castles, pastel goth, jeffrey litas, baby pink and blue mermaid hair, lots of glitter, the general tumblr aesthetic of that era).
I actually see a lot of zoomies wearing similar kinds of fits with oversize black hoodies and tees. However I dont have the guts to wear it outside because I feel like people would just think I’m a weird millennial who hasn’t got with the programme yet kek. I really love it though.

>>325111Also posting she who shall not be named as another example kek.
I love how simple but edgy and sexy these outfits are.
Obviously, being skinny is a prerequisite and can make even cheap generic clothes look chic.
Im just sick of the polished, tailored, prissy clean girl look. I miss tumblr grunge.

I'm kinda addicted to just grabbing images off the internet and making collages with them like picrel. This is basically a pic of all my fashion tastes. I don't have any name for it other than maybe 'edgelord lite' or something.

>>325175Hey, I have that bag! Love it. It's got sturdy zippers. I put patches and pins all over it, even though I'm probably too old for that. kek

>>325195Supposedly fashion cycles are supposed to have a revival every 20 years or so.
However, I saw people obsessing over Paris and Lindsay and Y2K since like 2015, which would have only been around 10-12 years later.
It’s been 13 years since 2010 so I think tumblr goth and tumblr grunge are gonna be big again soon.
As another nona said however, I don’t think this aesthetic ever really went away.

I don't think this is relevant for the lolita thread so I'm asking it here. Does anyone have any pictures of outfits that uses lolita dresses but coords them in a non-lolita way? Bonus points if the outfit doesn't have a petticoat

Does anyone else here have trouble dressing casual/practical?
I love fashion and nice dresses but what I really need clothes for now is outdoor activities and gardening (like a true farmer kek). I'm tired of being worried about mud on my nice things. I think I associate more practical styles with unflattering scrote-like clothes but seriously there got to be nice things out there to wear for women who do muddy things.

>>325379I feel you nona, usually when I get down to those tasks (like gardening or taking care of my chickens) I opt for lite, loose fit, linen dresses with the occasional apron for my tools. I get sweaty very easily so I love that these options don't overheat me or cling to my skin. Also overalls are a great and cute choice!

>>325355>>325453Glad to help nonitas! I like the camo one too. I got the regular green one. I added orange paracord zipper pulls too because I just love army green and orange together, I feel it adds a little edge to the bag.

Can any nonnies tell me what brand of shirt he’s wearing? I love this buttonup with a bear plushie in the pocket. If it’s not someone I can buy, I will try to recreate it because it’s so stinkin’ cute
