2016 wardrobe post~ a curated dark romantic journey

[thesundaywriter.livejournal.com]

Last year the focus was to refine my coords and overall style, so mainly acquiring items to complement my existing main pieces. I think it went quite well and I can now make more coords out of what I already have. Also managed to sell nearly all of my beginner items. So without futher ado, here's my current loli wardrobe!

Trust Worthy Shop?

I found this lolita shop online and it has lots of dresses for very cheap. I would love to buy some of these dresses but I want to be sure that its safe. If anyone has used it before please tell me. Or take a look and tell me if it looks trustworthy. Thankyouu! website link: http://www.lolitadressesshop.com/

New to Lolita: Petticoat Help!

[afinedenouement.livejournal.com]

I'm fairly new to lolita and want to finally get a coord together, but I'm still really struggling with telling whether or not a dress needs an A-line or bell shape petticoat. I know that some people recommend drawing lines to better see the shape, but I'm still struggling. Any tips? Also, what type of petticoat would you recommend for Angelic Pretty's Marine Kingdom JSK? As I own this and desperately want to wear it. Thank you! c: Oh! And any recommendations for a coord would be greatly appreciated too (:
