Fixing YOUR Coordinates (14)

[@XouMuse]

My inner goblin is just screaming "Flower crown" or at least flower accessories for any country look. I know the whole Flower crown craze look is over, but I think it would look very cute, especially for that first and last coord!

[@QueenCloveroftheice]

I’ll keep flower crowns alive single-handedly if I have to!

[@raelaash4759]

You say one more time flower crowns are dead and I'll show you what's dead

[@Mostly_Kpop]

I like the phrase inner goblin. I'm stealing it.

[@shammydammy2610]

Or even the antler + flower crowns.

[@Shunylium]

See I didn't know the flower crown phase was over

[@nanamiharuka3269]

“lolita lurker” there’s a word for what I am?? What a revelation!

[@bexthewitch87]

Ah!!!! Dat me!!! The minute this quarantine is over I am headed to the craft store to make that twig crown! Also; I was wearing the coat because it was very cold in the shade and I only have the one coat....guess I'll have to shell out for a better kawaii winter coat haha!

[@speakerskat2867]

I love your dress and the way you did your hair!

[@bexthewitch87]

@@speakerskat2867 thanks!

[@caitpatterson2685]

You looked super cute!

[@ViolentAurora]

Honestly the coat looked cute, especially if it's the only one you had I love fully stuff and it worked pretty well

[@Nazgath]

You looked so cute, I really love how you did your hair. If you're going to own more ops or brown jsks, I'd consider getting a brown blouse and shoes for this coordinate cus that way it makes sense having them on your wardrobe. Also a straw cross bag with some daisy pins or flower decor to match the hat idea Lor mentioned would be really cute.

[@HaldjasHelina]

Fun (?) fact: In some countries sewing classes are mandatory. Including the one I live in. Nowadays girls and guys can both choose between carpentry or handicrafts (sewing, knitting, etc), but taking one or the other is mandatory. Aaaand I did not enjoy my sewing classes.

[@hxbrygd]

AAAAHHHH HELLO ITS ME THE AMAZON GOTHIC LOLITA thank you so much you’re so sweet 💖💖💖 last week I actually decided to throw myself in to it a lot more and bought my first few pieces second hand and off brand I can’t wait 😻😻

[@hxbrygd]

I also still have that awful dress, I’m considering bleaching it and making it punk 😸

[@TheoRose13]

Id recommend rhinestoning that amazon dress! I feel like being a drag queen lolita is a perfect opportunity to go full OTT. Either jet black or ruby red stones would look great. Id also say if it's possible to remove the ribbons, take them out and replace them with better quality ribbons? Might help make the dress look less cheap

[@ebiUsher]

HOLY SHOOT, DUDE, YOU LOOKED AMAZING! i'd love to see more from you, never change and good luck 🌹

[@lilyoftheveil666]

YOU 👏 KILLED 👏 IT 👏

[@NightshadeQS]

One, you looked AMAZING! Two, where did you get that petticoat? It really did just totally sell your outfit!! 💗

[@V-Dubs]

I think it would be so cute to wear the first JSK mentioned with a light green blouse.

[@notjamin]

"What school has sewing classes?" Pretty much every single school in Sweden

[@kathiego233]

You are so lucky. The one and only sewing class I had was in Home Economics in Junior High School grades 7 and 8. I made a blouse following the instructions and with the teacher doing the measurements and it came out too tight. I hope that you will sew something great! Thanks, Kathy from Arizona, USA

[@emjenkins464]

We have some in the UK. It's basically just how to iron, dye aoft fabric, mend a hole and sew a straight line on a machine.

[@maikangwiel]

My favourite ways to coordinate skirts are: skirt + cutsew (some of them have a print on the chest to fill in the space) skirt + top + jacket skirt + top + cardigan Since the skirt is AP, it is best to look into AP cutsews, they are great.

[@RaysofLight98]

Your pausing the video to check and make sure the screaming child outside is okay is too wholesome (and relatable).

[@karmillaschreger6546]

Thank you so much for reviewing my coord

[@michaljo711]

Im a lolita lurker. I plan on someday getting into lolita if i ever find the time and money tho. Your channel was actually what got me into lolita, or at least got me creating pinboards of lolita stuff and dreaming of one day owning a frilly dress loll

[@tkwok8037]

Thank you for picking my coord! I definitely needed a more experienced lolita's eye and since I hadn't seen many skirts in fixing coordinates series I wanted to submit mine. Am currently on the hunt for new cardigan/bolero/cutsew. Will definitely try that denim idea too! I know that vest was a bad decision. I was trying to play with the green leaves on the skirt (vest was green but really dark) but didn't really work how I imagined it might. (queue "wwon wwon" sound)

[@beguinemystic]

i went to an arts middle/high school and focused in fashion/costume design all 4 years!! i also wore lolita to the same school in 7th grade... I’m still embarrassed to this day because it was a bodyline dress with no petti, but to my credit it was the best bodyline dress available and i went around telling everyone that the outfit would be better if i had a petti (i was self aware at the very least) edit: lor, you were one of the people that introduced me to the fashion way back in 7th grade - i’ve been subscribed since 2013 and i’m so happy this channel has kept going so strong all these years (and that my interest in lolita wasn’t just a short phase)

[@laurenelise6944]

Thank you for always doing these fixing coords videos Lor!

[@mis8738]

I'm working on my first 'official' coord and I keep rewatching your fixing coords videos, I love them so much and I'm learning so much from them.

[@musicreatively]

I think the first one would be cute with a beret that matches the green in the bottom part of the dress

[@RozzanaRose]

We had a fashion design class at my high school. It was really cool and the teacher was great! Not sure if it's still around though, it's been 6ish years.

[@elementadimension1956]

Love your videos very new to Lolita but have been admiring it from far for a couple years now. Finally got my first Lolita dress which is a brand only now I need to try and get the accessories and shoes. Thanks for all your great advice and hopefully I’ll be able to send you my coord once I get those last pieces(:

[@luluMusicGamesMovies]

My high school had sowing, along with woodworking, programming and metalworking. It was honestly pretty good

[@stephaniea7383]

I just wanted to comment on how pretty your eye makeup is!

[@Coach_Vedo]

Greetings for all! Stay safe you and Holly!

[@derphooves61]

For that last one, a staw boater would defintely give it a more 'country' vibe! And if you could decorate it would loads of roses it would defintely go with the skirt!

[@amiraprice8226]

Ohh nice! This is a great birthday present! Having to spend my birthday on lockdown, but thanks so much for brightening peoples day!

[@ADHDSCREAM]

Tbh huge respect for you checking if the kid is ok, idk how it is where you live but where i live kids get snatched off the street and people just watch it happen ;-;

Holy shit I’m early screw French class 😂 Love y’all so much

[@kintsugigirl]

I remember there being a sewing class back in eighth grade (I live in Maine). Didn't take it, but I remember it being there.

[@ViolentAurora]

We had a fashion class at our school and tbh I'm sort of sad I didnt take it, i did take our cooking class and business course though An amazon dress i think is definitely okay for drag or a night out at a club especially with a good petticoat

[@carolinarico-juarez7430]

My high school had a sewing class/fashion design but i dont think anyone wore lolita to my school. I had a friend that wore lolita inspired but with a more vintange vibe to her outfits

[@mimimums2398]

14:08 im just having flashbacks to the times that i would wear lolita to middle school,, it was tragic how i did it but im still amazed i had the confidence to do that TT

[@CraftySheryl]

My high school had sewing (home ec) classes. That’s where I learned to sew. But that was 30 years ago, so no lolitas!

[@fioledarsenic]

oh for the first one a headpiece with (fake) antlers would look so dope! and maybe some leaves to go with the green/nature theme and contrast the antlers from the hair color (tho i dont know if those actually exist) i also think a brown blouse can be cool

[@lilyoftheveil666]

WE STAN NATHAN

[@GrayeIra]

Soon i will finally have some walolita stuff. Wont be able to make a coord, but currently, it will be enough for me

[@SoftGoddesss]

Lor... im loving the head piece sooo much >.

[@eveningstardraws_]

i have that amazon dress too ! it was my first lolita dress haha i actually still wear it because its good for if im going somewhere where i might get dirty (ie: on a walk in the woods or painting with friends). i know its a total no-no to wear stuff like that and call it lolita but i spent money on it so i feel bad just tossing it :,) ive got plenty of nice dresses now of course

[@eveningstardraws_]

my boyfriend also bought me one of the infamous amazon replica dresses as a birthday present and i still wear it regularly because it was a really sweet gift and we both didnt know better at the time, i think its cute honestly LMAO

[@theaeon]

oh wow "posted 43 second ago"

[@lady_sir_knight3713]

Leanne, I think that one of these two BB and B necklaces would fit your coord perfectly. They are pink macarons with rose accents, and long enough to hit your lower chest. It depends on whether you want the more red heart macaron one or the more purely pink, slightly larger one. bbandb.net/shop/the-charming-heart-cake-necklace-893.html bbandb.net/shop/pastel-pink-over-the-top-macaron-paerl-charm-necklace-gold-plated-chain-114.html

[@tkwok8037]

Thanks. I really wish I could order but they don't ship to Australia! :( Definitely on the list as well as something from Qpot.

I have anxiety if the tea party is really good and the pastries...my food thing is picky too i don't know how because no ticktock of it like vlog? I must remember too lol

[@rowanhoyt2509]

I have a beret, but it's knit and a *very* specific shade of sort of raspberry/pomegranate. it has not structure and just flops downward. I'd like to eventually incorporate it, but it's SO hard to style. Thoughts anyone?

[@daniellafonagy7685]

I was looking at your head piece and I thought that how cool would it be to change it into squishies

[@QueenCloveroftheice]

Lor! Important question! Where did you get your headdress from? I don’t have any cake/sweets accessories, and that one is so cute!

[@mcmayoralgo2828]

I’m 99% positive it’s from BB&B 😊 They do headpieces and wrist cuffs as well as regular jewelry!

[@greencoloredstar]

Yay, Lor! ❤️❤️❤️

[@courtneycherry113]

Yo i have that black dress, it was the first i got 😆

[@karid.4371]

I have a question to anyone knowledgeable in Lolita.. I'm just an admirer of the fashion and of Lor so I dont really know "what's what". Why is that black amazon dress so bad.. I just see a black dress and in the photos the person wearing It I thought looked great like Lor said so I'm just really curious to hear what people involved in the fashion would say.. I love to sew and make my own clothing so I'm just very curious.. Is it the fabric , the cut, details or what exactly that makes it not a nice Lolita dress. K thanks to anyone who just read my novel of a comment sorry. Lol 😂🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@jadefenner4971]

kari D. It’s mostly just visibly low quality fabric, and there isn’t the ‘true Lolita brand’ attention to detail in any of the small details of the dress. The ribbon particularly is pretty cheap and nasty. The cut and general idea of the dress actually worked quite well, which is why it looked so good in a club setting (low light) where the details were less visible.

[@koikat6638]

The Reason main pieces from generual multiseller shops like Amazon, AliExpress, and Wish are hated is because almost every dress you will see is a replica. For some communities, people don't care about replica's as much, but for lolita replica's are hated by most people for a number of reason. As mentioned previously, the quality absolutely sucks in replia's as they are mass produced and cheaper and some lolita's argue that part of lolita is about the quality. Next, replica's are hated because they take money from companies that are small enough to begin with. Even though it may seem that even the bigger brands of Lolita like AP, Mary Magdalene (which is where most of the replica's come from actually), metamorphose, ect, are money Giants they really aren't. Lolita is small even in Japan so these companies therefore are also really small even with their popularity. On a moral level, taking money from a small company is considered wrong, especially when it's something that is known for the artistic originality, such as the original prints that brands work to produce. Some people argue that they buy replica's because they are cheaper and they don't have the budget to buy a $100 dress, but this can also be easily debunked. There are many smaller brands like Bodyline and Diamond Honey that have cheaper dresses that are of decent quality and are not blatant rip offs. Trust me, everyone can tell when you're wearing a crappy replica. My apologies for how long this was. I hope that this helped

[@LualaDy]

I am not a lolita, but I live in skirts! If it's warm enough, a blouse that is well decorated on the front works perfectly. For ex my blouse here has ruffles going from the neck down to the waistline: fav.me/ddunzaa If it's a little chilly, you can wear a white long sleeved top underneath. I keep blouses that are plain on the front but have interesting collars/necklines for my jumper dresses. ex: fav.me/ddn3ciu two more examples or decorated blouses that won't make your top part feel bare: fav.me/ddo53br & fav.me/ddqk0bp (yes these aremy sewing projects ^^)

[@HitsuHere]

do you also fix Ouji coords?

I can’t wear a beret since most of them are wool though and I’m allergic :( love your videos maybe one day I’ll have the balls to send a coordinate lol

[@sylthrynthesnowelf3908]

I'm new to the lolita style and community and I just found Lovely Lor's channel last week. I'm very lost on where to begin, like what category I should look into or where to begin actually learning the correct terms and the like. I was wondering if anyone could maybe give me some tips? I've been doing cosplay for almost 15 years and I don't want to mix up lolita cosplay with lolita style :(

[@owlislike]

Starting out can be overwhelming since there are many many styles of Lolita. I suggest making a Pinterest board and seeing if there is any particular style that you are gravitating to and allow yourself to explore and be creative. Don't get bogged down by labels either, it's fashion! You should wear what makes you happy! As far as referencing styling, take a look at this article www.tsunagujapan.com/11-lolita-brands-you-should-check-out-in-japan/. I use the top "brands" as a styling guide more than anything else and then sew my own pieces. By that I mean using their fashion spreads as a guide for shape and balance in ensembles, not direct copying.
