Event is June 1st thru the 4th

Who is going from here.... By far my favorite con!

I'll be there as always, smashed day and night

Fuck yes! You got a room or staying off site?

I haven't been active in my community for a while and I really want to start going to meets again, but the only meet that's coming up is a Harry Potter meet and I've never seen or read any of it. It's not just an outfit theme either, they're visiting the Harry Potter expo. I'm debating whether I should go anyway and feel out of place or wait (possibly for a long time) until a less themed meet comes up.

Before you suggest hosting a meet, I'm a complete nobody in my comm so I'm fairly certain no one would attend anyway.

Gulls how should i tell this unstable girl who considers me her "friend" in my comm to leave me alone?

She's really mentally unstable (attempted suicide several times,changes bf every month or so, openly talk about her sex life which makes me feel uneasy especially since she is into ddlg which grosses me out) and I just don't want anything to do with her anymore.
I tried to be her friend at first, then she proceeded to make me uncomfortable (asking me out when she still had a boyfriend,saying how she has threesomes super casually), then told me i was one of her best friends despite meeting me twice and talking to me only a tiny bit online, then went apeshit saying i was "so cold" and "egoistical" and a "leech"(??) and how she always had to make the first move/come to me.
Then a few months later she came back, apologized and I told her that we should just "forget about it" and now she's back and think of me as a friend

She's friend with all the popular girls in the comm and I'm affraid she'll talk shit behind my back to them.
I just want to make her understand I'm not comfortable around her but without being mean.

>>9330572
I think that if you let them know you haven't read or seen it, and that you just want to hang out with your comm members you will be fine anon. Is this the Dutch meet btw?
I was thinking of maybe going too.

My dream event is one of Kaya's parties

Kyra?

>>9329510
Kaya, but please just continue the thread and ignore what I said

>>9327776
gogo because i'm short and asian. she's also tsuntsun and cute as heck. shame her regular outfit isn't as interesting as honey lemon's.

Gogo, because I'm short and prefer more boyish styles, so her outfit would suit me better.

>>9327776

Gogo, her outfit is more forgiving to an average figure and looks way more comfortable.

Yes. I work in an office.
My style for work is typically himekaji bordering on otona kawaii but I obviously am most conscious about picking an appropriate length.
I pair almost everything with a cardigan of some sort as an option and the shoes used in himekaji are typically passable on their own (esp pumps).
My coworkers don't care much but sometimes they'll mention if something is particularly cute.

Maybe some day in private practice...

I work in a law office with an extremely lax dress code. On days I'm not expecting other attorneys, I'll dress in toned down classic coords or otome leaning coords. Most of my coords are JSKs with cardigans, although sometimes I swap those out for blazers. I usually skip head wear, but sometimes I'll wear small bows or berets. My absolute favorite pieces are a no name lacy Meta skirt and IW's Constance JSK in brown.

they haven't released a new ep for a week or two, right?

i follow the show and i wish i could like at least one person on it but they're all garbage. i laugh every time they show /cgl/ caps.

audra's Reddit AMA was a pathetic attempt at money grabbing for her "artbook" and it actually got funded. kms

>>9318509
Nah, a new episode was released a couple days ago.

I couldn't agree with you more about everyone being garbage. The only even kind of likeable person there is Ashphord imo. Maybe Paula as well, if only because she just gets shitted on by everyone else.

Actually I stopped watching once there was the 3rd episode in a row about 'cake porn' By god, it's 'wet and messy', be an adult. There's a lot worse things then frosting people throw on their downstairs in that genre of porn.

It's just your run of the mill garbage. I enjoy shows about fashion, but it is garbage.

is this for real?

nice trips

the biggest difference is not in style as much as quality. despite being well-established as a subculture, Western goth brands are often costumey, and the better brands tend to only make women's clothes. Japanese gothic brands like h. Naoto, in contrast, have a huge range of styles in varying levels of formality.

another difference is that there is less emphasis on sex appeal in jgoth, usually. even with brands like alice auaa and Na+h, which can use very sexy silhouettes, the coords or fashion spreads i have seen emphasize sexuality less than their Western counterparts.

alice auaa is my favorite jgoth brand, followed by h. Naoto. if we include EGL family gothic brands, Moi-meme-Moitie has a special place in my heart. if we include defunct brands, Black Peace Now is the best.

I get that they used warble to achieve this specific shape for the dress, but I just feel like its such a waste of material an it doesn't look that great either.

Just came here to see if it was just me. I don't understand how it's been offline so often lately. I know it was always a bit iffy but I feel like it's down more than up lately.
They haven't posted on FB since the start of the month so there's no news about the update. Hope everything is going okay for them.

Hoping to see more casual/daily wear this year, OTT is great and all but it'd be nice to see more toned down stuff.
>can't wait for spring coords

I'm into lolita since like 2006 but looking through old fruits/kera/GLB and comparing them to the same magazines today, I don't understand how anyone can say J-fashion is dying just now. I think it's been long dead.
Even if the sub-styles remain, the general vibe of fun and experimentation which jumps out of the pages of an old Fruits has been gone for a decade. And it's honestly depressing.

Also I feel like nowadays it became so boring. I see mainly classical OTT with boring neutral colors,even sweet isn't as playful/vibrant, decoras don't or barely exist anymore,... Larme is popular but it's so normie i don't even consider it an alternative fashion.

If someone has that guy saved that self-posted his Steven Universe/JoJo crossover a while ago (I think in the SU general), then threw a fit when everyone told him it was a bad crossover? I remember it but forgot to save it apparently.
