So today me and my friends were on MSN talking about lolita fashion. If you don't know what it is:
"Lolita Fashion is a fashion subculture originating in Japan that is based on Victorian-era clothing as well as costumes from the Rococo period, but the style has expanded greatly beyond these two. The Lolita look began primarily as one of modesty with a focus on quality in both material and manufacture of garments. The original silhouette is of a knee length skirt or dress with a 'cupcake' shape assisted by petticoats, but has expanded into various types of garments including corsets and floor lengths skirts. Blouses, knee high socks or stockings and headdresses are also worn.Lolita fashion has evolved into several different sub styles and has a subculture that is present in many parts of the world." - Wikipedia
We found this really cute site in Japan which sells a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e outfits! It's called http://www.marymagdalene.jp and the site layout is so adorable! My favourite items of clothings have to be:
http://www.marymagdalene.jp/contents/dress/231/0104/ - It also comes in a various amount of adorable colours. It is listed at the price of 23,940 (¥ 22,800 tax) (about £200!) which is pretty expensive but I guess it's worth the price. However, this dress has been sold out but it would look adorable with some bunny ears or something!
This is my next favourite - http://www.marymagdalene.jp/contents/dress/231/0105/ The colours available for this are also so cute. I'd hate to pick one I really really like xD. Listed at 28,140 (¥ 26,800 tax) means that this dress is more expensive than the one above but they both look amazing! Again this is sold out but keep an eye out when they come back here!
This is an elegant and cute ruffle shirt. The details look amazing on here and it comes in 3 colours. You can check this out here; http://www.marymagdalene.jp/contents/blouse/234/0201/ Everything is sold out( TДT)
What are your thoughts on lolita clothing? Do you like it? Would you buy a dress or item of clothing?
LOLITA! I love frilly dresses! xD The first one is so soft and cute >//v//<
Mary Magdalen is also a great shop.
Yes it is! I wish I could buy all their stuff, only I probably can't afford all their stuff ;>
