#l481

[lolita-tips]

Hi! I was wondering if bodyline's L481 jsk in pik/gre would work with brown shoes? I only have one pair of proper lolita shoes, which are brown, and I don't currently have the funds to buy any other shoes. If not, what color would you recommend? I LOVE your blog, btw! <3

Brown shoes could work if you introduced brown somewhere else in the coord. I think the issue then becomes getting brown into this coord in a way that makes sense with the theme. You could maybe add some brown bunny accessories since it’s a bunny print. For example, if you like the idea of ears you could do cute ears like these which add a little bit of brown.If you decide against that, white shoes are usually a good option for a Sweet Lolita basic. Gold shoes could also be really cute with the gold parts of the print.

Would I be able to make l481 in purple + a pink blouse work with pink shoes, if I used purple tights? Or would that coord be too polarized with all the purple in the middle and pink on the ends? I'm ordering the outfit through bodyline but they don't have any purple shoes I like, and I dont know where else to go/want to minimize on shipping as much as possible

Maybe you could do white for your legwear instead? I think purple tights with the purple dress might be a bit much in this case and you already have your pink shoes to tie into your blouse. If you want to do purple I would say to do socks instead of tights so it’s not just a straight line of purple but otherwise white is a good way to go for either tights or socks. If you wanted to have a little more detail I would say to go for something with a floral pattern like these tights or these socks.

Do you think l160 in pink could go under Bunny Cinderella in purple?

I don’t see why not.

Do you think it would be okay to coordinate l481 in purple with a pink blouse, pink shoes, and white tights if the majority of accessories were purple to match the JSK? There's a fair amount of pink in the print, but I'm still not really sure.

That sounds like it would work very well. Maybe try to get a good balance between purple and pink accessories though rather than all purple.

Im a new lolita and i recently bought l481 in purple and i was wondering what headdress to wear with it - i always have problems trying to find them. also long sleeved blouse of short sleeved?

There are a lot of things you could do for headwear. You could just do a simple lavender bow or maybe something that involves pearls to match the print. You could also use the Cinderella theme and do a crown or tiara or you could use the bunny theme and do cute ears. Roses are also a good way to go since they’re in the print so much. You could do just a simple flower crown or add some roses to a bow or just clips here and there, or you could do something more elaborate.As for long or short sleeved blouse, that all depends on what makes you the most comfortable in the weather you’re in. Either works just as well.

What color blouse should I coordinate bodyline's l481 in black with? I like the idea of L364 in black but I don't know if it would work in practice with the amount of black.

I think it could work with that blouse in black. You would just have to be sure to balance the amount of pastel colors with the amount of black elsewhere in your coord. Alternatively you could also do a white blouse or if you wanted something really sweet you could do sax or pink.

Playing with Purple (Coordinate In Progress)

Trying to figure out how I want to Coord this L481 Jumperskirt from Bodyline. It is a very “Saturated Pastel” (compare to the lavender OTKs) and might look better with other “rich” Pastels instead of trying to match back to ivory or cream.
