Lolita Tips

Anonymous:

(Prom anon here!) Thank you so much for your advice! I read what you said about JSK's with more interesting designs around the neckline that don't need a blouse. The JSK I was thinking about was Bodyline's L379. Since it is a halter and has a heart-shaped neckline, do you think that would be okay?

I think it could be an option and it would work with or without a blouse. You seem to have made that decision really quickly though so I would just suggest looking around a little more. Keep that one in your mind if you don’t find anything you like better, I just wouldn’t want you to settle for something right away.

Would Bodyline's L379 jumperskirt require an A-line petticoat or a bell petticoat? I only have an A-line petticoat, and I was wondering if I could use it for that JSK.

It’s definitely bell-shaped. I don’t think it would look very good at all with an A-line petti considering the way the tiers are gathered.

I purchased a JSK from bodyline [L379] a few days ago, but I just realized it has a halter top instead of two straps... Are halter tops frowned upon in lolita? I'm starting to get worried about it, it's my first real lolita purchase :/

Why would a halter styled JSK be seen as any different than a JSK with two straps? You can still wear it well with a blouse and it still has the overall Lolita concept. It’s fine.

did you know any review about this JSK L379 ? thank you i love blog♥

I don’t know of any reviews but I have seen it before and I can honestly say it looks a lot nicer in real life than it does in Bodyline’s stock photo.

JSK L379 or Skirt L380? Both in Black...

Both, especially the JSK, look a bit questionable in Bodyline’s stock photos, but I have seen them worn on someone else and they look much nicer than they do in Bodyline’s photos.
