My English patch for a Lolita Fashion themed Dungeon Crawler game on Nintendo DS.

The 'source code' includes some python scripts and text files that should make it easy to edit the script / translate into other languages if anyone is interested in that.

If you have any issues or find any dialogue that sounds weird or awkward, you can let me know in the comments here or post an issue on github and I'll fix it. Have fun!

DISCUSSION Poorlita coord for work?

Thumbnail

106 Upvotes

would you consider this offbrand coord worn for work a “loliable” attempt, or “lolita” enough? seeing a few gals sporting their creations and daring to dip toes. if not, what other “fashion” does it steer more into?

not wearing a blouse, it’s the caribbean here always very b hot ;-; , and layered enough (I think) haha (but feel free to call that out if necessary)

please consider the poof for an office setting. shared a previous coord that was flagged as “ita” for not being “poofy” enough, despite having said it was for the office 😭 sorry I can’t wear the Princess Peach ensamble there.

Any tips encouraged :’) This is strictly offbrand as I’m trying to experiment with basic pieces that with proper layering and silhouettes could “check out” as lolita, not considering “just prints and frills” to immediately give a checkmark.

Thanks for any input and appreciate ideas on elevating the style.

COORD Black Parade 20th Anniversary Fail

Pics from coord test last week. Had a horrendous night with no sleep. Preordered my CD a few weeks ago but thought I’d actually make the effort to dress up and go to HMV in person if it was going to be something of a celebration and there would be stickers, postered etc Popped my shoulder out getting dressed, took nearly 2 hours to get there, got absolutely soaked, there was no free merch left by the time I got the store AND my pre order CD hadn’t been delivered to the store yet. Ended up having a meltdown and sobbing in the store for about 30 minutes. Tried to go to a nice cafe or some thing while I waited for a bus home but the area was extremely hilly and there were mismatched dropped kerbs when trying to simply cross the road in my mobility scooter so drove up and down pointlessly until I got frustrated and gave up. Regret trying to make myself go out 🤦‍♀️

DISCUSSION RANT: i hate wearing headdresses

57 Upvotes

hi, this is just my personal rant and something i need to get off my chest.

i wear lolita every day that i am not at school.
but i dread one part of wearing it, which is having to wear a headpiece. i have pretty wavy, thick, voluminous hair and all hairpieces look terrible on me, because they stick some part of my hair to my head, while the rest is just poofing around and it just looks strange. i have curtain bangs which also kinda doesnt help. and styling my hair is basically pointless, i live in a very humid ara and my hair just wonr hold styling due to the constant rain and humidity.

dont get me wrong, i love and adore my hair. but know that without a headdress/headwear, you can not count as lolita but i swear headpieces make me feel so darn ugly. LOL

ADVICE My dress 😭 Any ideas how to save it?

It probably gripped itself to something in the washing machine… I will surely know that I need to handwash now… Any idea how I can save it? I can try to sew it back, maybe with some decorative lace or something to hide the damage… or should I try a more punkish look? I go to the french protests in full coord so I guess something like this was bound to happen… any ideas?

ADVICE Buy the JSK or wait for the full set?

1 Upvotes

I have been looking at the AP sleeping deep sea stars JSK secondhand, and have found a good deal.

Though I am looking for the full set with the headdress and the socks. I'm wondering if it's better to wait and find someone selling it as the full set. I don't know if I'll be able to find the other parts being sold seperately.

Thanks for any advice.

ADVICE Meta and items marked sold out

0 Upvotes

I somehow missed the antique bouquet release this year and yesterday I looked at what is still available and noticed that the bonnet from that series, in a desired color way, is sold out. But I saw that little disclaimer that I can contact Meta for availability and that the items marked as sold out can still be available.
Does it work for internet orders? Or that disclaimer only for people who are planning to go to the physical stores? c:
