I just won this doujinshi, you don’t know how excited I am. Tomomi Kobayashi’s BT art is my FAVORITE. Even if this is kinda gaggy I’ve seen some pics of the inside, it involves chibi acchan with a pig nose and ears, I don’t care. Also there’s a glorious fold out poster in it too @U@
I won’t be getting it for a few months tho, because I’m probably going to have it sent to me via sea mail with a huge load of art magazines I bought…but when I do get it I will get scans ASAP <333

Cropped all the photos out so I don't get dinged again, but I refuse to believe a human actually looked at these photos of *checks notes* the Angelic Pretty Winter 2017/2018 Fashion show and decided it was *checks notes again* porn????
Seriously? A human looked at these models who are covered from neck to knee and thought this was somehow adult content?
Is this the 1600s? Are we sexualizing ankles? is it the single bare elbow? What is the secret sex thing in these photos?
Ephemeral Lace is a Lolita Fashion blog.
Rocking horse shoes, commonly referred to as RHS, are iconic within the Lolita fashion community. They were desigend with the Vivienne Westwood's "Mini-Crini" line and by no means have a Lolita-specific history, but they nonetheless have come to represent a bygone era within our fashion.
Let's look at their origins, and later explore why they have come to be so iconic in our tiny, insular fashion community around the world.
If anyone is wondering, this tutorial to make this skirt is still a method that works. Both those links are from wayback machine captures from a time before Photobucket betraying us all and deleting pictures.
Yes, I'm still mad about that.
Anyway, in the spirit of seeing if budget lolita was still doable in 2023, here we go with a cost breakdown:
>Main skirt fabric was a $10 walmart 4-yard precut; enough fabric to make waist ties not pictured here >Skirt is fully lined with a polyester bedsheet I got for $1 at a surplus store >The bow lace was part of a bulk purchase, ended up costing 21cents a yard. Skirt probably has 6-8 yards of lace on it. The little vertical strips were scraps from another project. Back shirring on skirt is 1/4" elastic, which covid conveniently made super cheap. >I didn't have the zipper on hand, so I had to buy one for $1 at walmart. As anyone who has been on Wawak knows, that's massively overpaying for zippers.
This skirt is 3" longer and a few sizes larger than the one in the post. I had to make a new cutting layout for the skirt, and it took a fair bit of additional fabric. In addition, to save on fabric width, the "side seams" on this are actually a little bit farther back than the side of the skirt. I cut the back of the skirt to full fabric width, and then added the adjustment for the fullness into the side front pieces. Clarice, who wrote the original tutorial, mentions that the person she made it for was very small, so I sized it up a little bit.
I make sketches like this as I go for personal reference, but maybe it'll be helpful.
In the spirit of livejournal, I "clarified" my sketch by making it more confusing in GIMP. (Your pieces you need to cut will be back: 44"x19.5", cut 1. Side Front, 22"x19.5", cut 2. Center Front, 15"x25.5", cut 1. Frills, 5.5"x44", cut 9 or 10).
So, when we get into it, yeah, if you have a good design (or can copy a good design) and you're willing to put some time into it, you can still do a budget lolita skirt for under $20 of materials, if you're careful. I'm mostly making this post to save which archive.org captures are the ones with working pictures.
(It also helps if you don't mess up on the waistband so many times that it slowly shrinks into a 1" waistband.)
Fun fact: the trim on the ends of the waist ties may or may not be because I hemmed them sloppily and the hem came up bubbly, and zigzagging some lace onto the bottom handily covered up the bubbling. One of the advantages about knowing a decent amount about lolita fashion is that you can look at things and go, "Yeah, if I added x here, it'd be fine," and knowing enough about sewing to go, "yeah, if I do x cheat here, it'll look better" and being able to put the two together and go, "hey, if I cheat here, it'll still look lolita!" It's a good feeling.
Anyway, if anyone else has ever used Clarice's tutorial to make a skirt, I'd love to see it! This is my second time using it, but the last time was almost a decade ago at this point, and I think I've improved a lot since then.
I've made this skirt! Unfortunately I don't have a better photo on hand right now

Do you know Manba? I personally think its too much for me at least, looks cool on others, but I got to hand it to them they’re very extravegant in their own way, and look! Its Dj SiSen(All the way to the right)!<3
It was during my second time reading this story that my brain finally processed the tragedy and beauty of it and made me cry like a baby.
I think the reason I enjoy Ghibli so much is it romanticizes the little things. It makes me want to bake, study, clean the house, garden, and more while listening to happy music and occasionally picking wildflowers and lying in the grass. It helps me find joy in day-to-day life and that’s honestly sooo important for my mental health.
Hayao Miyazaki has said on numerous occasions that he wants children to know that even when the world seems harsh and life is hard, it is always still worth living, and there is always something beautiful in it.
That mental health boost is intentional and Miyazaki wants you to believe that you should continue to live, even if just for those little things.
