This is what I wore to my high school prom. I can’t even really point out anything I would change, the coord is going for a specific look and it succeeds at that! Verdict: Though simple, I actually think this coord is surprisingly good compared to my first one! It’s not my style anymore, but I wouldn’t mind wearing this outfit even now. It’s certainly a different approach than I take now to wardrobe building! Then I collected every piece I would need to coordinate it effectively. I decided I had to have this AP dress and shortly after I saw it for sale secondhand so I jumped on it. The convention itself was highly mediocre, but I was mostly just excited to meet other lolitas so I had a good time. This photo was taken at the first edition of Osharecon, a jfashion convention in the Netherlands. Still no better in the posing department. Ita or not, it’s still pretty bad.Ĭoord 2, the first one I wore to a lolita event. Verdict: The white blouse + dark brown socks combination is… questionable, and overall there is no real sense of cohesiveness but I do think I succesfully avoided an ita phase. At this point in time my hair wasn’t very lolita-suitable, but I was also convinced that wigs were a requirement so I ordered a number from Lockshop, which was very popular at the time. That cream blouse with brown details would certainly have improved this coord, but alas. I ordered an Innocent World blouse too, but I got the wrong size and had to sell it. That wishy-washy approach led to this not-quite-classic, not-quite-sweet coord. My first purchase was from Innocent World, which was motivated primarily by their accessible and easy to order from website, rather than me particularly liking their aesthetic. I didn’t really think about what substyle or aesthetics I liked, I just wanted to wear a frilly dress and then I’d be happy. I had turned 18 not long ago and was in my final year of high school.
#BLACK AND BROWN LOLITA COORDS HOW TO#
My very first coord! I clearly did not know how to pose. When I was just getting started in the fashion it always inspired me to see the first coords of lolitas I admired.

I mean, all of this analysis won't really change anything.


But I like that overall I wore lolita in a range of circumstances throughout the year that shows me that I really did achieve my goal of wearing it more across the board quite well. Once again, the data surprised me as I was not expecting work outfits to be such a big part of this! 29% is quite a chunk of the total. Last of all I wanted to take a quick look at where and when I wore lolita.
