LOOKING FOR + give me your opinion

[chibiechibbiusa.livejournal.com]

1. I'm looking for Metamorphose jumpers with polka dots. I don't know the name of the collection they're from. It's a pretty simple description though. Either black with white polka dots or red with white polka dots.
And to save you time, as much as I lust for these two JSKs, I'm not willing to pay more than $150 for each including shipping to CA, USA.
My email is mabetDOTyonamineATgmailDOTcom if you'd like to contact me that way.

2. I would like to hear some answers and opinions to the following: A) Aesthetically speaking, do you prefer flat loli footwear or platformed? B) How about simple and generic or decorated and wildly eye-catching?
C) Please pick the shoe you think looks the best / like the most:
#1 http://www.electriqueboutique.com/shop/proddetail.asp?id=DOROTHY-LOW-RED
#2 http://www.electriqueboutique.com/shop/proddetail.asp?id=DOROTHY-HIGH

Thanks so much. All comments and input are appreciated.

A) Flat OR platformed shoes:
B) Simple and generic shoes OR decorated and wildly eye-catching:
C) #1 shoe or #2:

A) Platformed but usually not hugely high, maybe 3 inches max. Flat shoes make me look frumpy and I just don't like how they look, I prefer chunky ones.
B) Simple usually, as in one or 2 colours. A lot of my shoes are eye-catching without being over the top decorated.
C) I don't think either are very loli due to the glitter but i'd say 2.

Thanks so much!
The shoes will be loli once I pair them with my OZ themed outfit. *hehe*

A) Flat OR platformed shoes: Platformed. As high as possible, but with no more than 2.5" difference between platform and heel for comfort.
B) Simple and generic shoes OR decorated and wildly eye-catching: Simple but eyecatching? XP The most unusual shoes I own are DD ballerina rocking horse shoes. The rest are pretty simple : stompy tall boots, Mana-like tall boots, one pair of taupe almost flats to wear with ivory stuffs.
C) #1 shoe or #2: #1. The shoe shape works better on their black version than on the red glitter Dorothy ones. If you were going for slightly punked Dorothy then #2.

[von-uberwald.livejournal.com]

A) Flat OR platformed shoes: I like either. If they're platformed, I'd like them to be not too high between platform and heel and it depends on the outfit how high the overall shoe is.
B) Simple and generic shoes OR decorated and wildly eye-catching: Depends again on the outfit. If it's a patterned dress, for example, simple and generic otherwise it detracts from it. If you're wearing a plain outfit then eyecatching is beter to lend some interest.
C) #1 shoe or #2: #1 because I really don't like the shape of the second one -0-;

A) Flat OR platformed shoes: Platformed, but this is a biased opinion because I am short^^;; I think they're cuter too, and make loli-chan stand out more~
B) Simple and generic shoes OR decorated and wildly eye-catching: I actually like simple generic, because it goes well with the cuteness of lolita~
C) #1 shoe or #2: #1..#2 looks a bit..flamboyant? shape while the first one looks more classic~

[nyah-nyah-nek0.livejournal.com]

a) uhm, i prefer platformed shoes because...well, i'm not sure why. maybe because it adds that hint of a lil girl trying to be taller right?

b) well...it all depends. i usually like simpler shoes (i take it you're still talking about shoes?) preferablly chunky boots or mary-janes. but, yeah, i like eye-ctaching stuff :P and sometimes elaborate..depends really...

c) uh, #1. not sure why. don't like the glitter, and not that into red but nyeh ^_^

[chibi-pink.livejournal.com]

1) I like either style of shoes. I've seen both types work. It really depends on the outfit, though. Flat shoes tend to work better with light, airy, delicate styles (IMO).

2) Simple! The rest of the dress and the accessories are usually eye catching enough that crazy shoes would be a bit too much.

3) I like #2 the best. Do you plan on putting some red glitter anywhere else in your outfit? Even a little (such as in accessories) would help bring the outfit together.

[chibiechibbiusa.livejournal.com]

Yes! I plan on braiding my hair like Dorothy's and securing the bottoms of each with sparkly red ribbon tied into tiny bows. *hehe*

[tsu-nanashi.livejournal.com]

A) I prefer platformed shoes. Perhaps it is because I am short compaired to my friends. Not to mention that if I kick something in flat shoes, it would hurt, apposed to kicking somthing in platforms and going "Oh noes! My shoe!"
B) Simple. Not so generic but not wildly decorates. I can be content to sit right in the middle.
C) Definately shoe 2

[sakur.livejournal.com]

A) Platformed, but it depends. I mainly have only flat shoes, but in some photos (like in GosuRori) platformed or heels look much better.
B) Overall I'd say simple. But in the end the shoes will catch your eyes, so really dull and generic are no good. xD
C) #2 :3 For Dorothy and in general.

[iamsellingstuff.livejournal.com]

A) Platformed! Platformed Platformed!
B) Decorated and wildly eyecatching, definetly.
C) Shoe 1. I have those shoes :D they're great. Specially for Oz-themed loli.

[maruneko.livejournal.com]

A. I adore platforms but my heels never exceed two inches because I'm already taller than most of the guys. My friends once commented that I look like a walking telephone pole with my boots T_T I prefer shoes with little difference in platform and heels because high heel shoes kill my back O_.
B. Decorated and wildly eyecatching is my favourite!
C. The second one. I doubt I could walk in the first O_o

[dancing-moon.livejournal.com]

1 - On me, flat, because I'm tall. On people who can walk in them platforms look nice. But a lot of people look, well, silly stumbling around in shoes they can't wear properly so mostly I prefer flat shoes.

2 - Decorated, but perhaps not wildly. I think often less is more, though a few well made details can really make a shoe spectacular

I honestly find both shoes pretty hideous with all that glitter, but no. 2 has a nicer shape.

[x-cynthia-x.livejournal.com]

A) Platformed. I think that legs look gorgeous in high shoes, also, they look so much more like art to me than flats, I have platform maryjanes all over my bedroom. On bpokshelves, electronics shelves in general, I love them. I'm not into porn-star platforms, but ones that look elegant enough for lolita.

B) Nothing catches my heart like a nice clean pair of white platform maryjanes. Simple and beautiful. I do like the brand looks, but I don't find them appropriate for all occasions what with how decorated they are.

C) The first. The second look frumpy and ugly to me, while the first look high and delicate. They're exactly the same height, but the first ones just look.. stupid to me. I wish they weren't sequined, though..

[amyoki.livejournal.com]

*nod nod* :3 I agree totally...

[pinkhairyfairy.livejournal.com]

A. Platforms
B. Decorated and eyecatching I guess.
C. #2 but I dislike the color/glittery thing on both ._.

[rikit.livejournal.com]

A very slight platform, 1 - 1.5 inches, absolutely NO heel
B depends on the outfit. but generally i like decorated but only decorated details like straps, bows, and heart buckles, etc...
C eh..don't really like either (coz of the heel, because i'm biased) but if I had to pick I'd say #1

[amyoki.livejournal.com]

A) Aesthetically speaking, do you prefer flat loli footwear or platformed?

Platformed since I'm asian, I'm SHORT. x3 Platforms make me TALL!!!

B) How about simple and generic or decorated and wildly eye-catching?

Simple. I prefer platformed black maryjanes...

C) Please pick the shoe you think looks the best / like the most:

Um...The second one...I don't like the shoes very much...Too red and glittery...O____O Too wizard of ozish x___o But if you like it, knock yourself out! :D

[innocentecchi.livejournal.com]

hmm... don't know if this works for you but i saw this and was like... oh wait that girl!
