2022 Wardrobe Post

January 9, 2022

Hi all! As has been the tradition in the lolita fashion community for the last 10+ years, January of every new year is typically wardrobe post season. This year I’m so excited to finally join in on this fun! Ahead is my wardrobe post. As a side note, all of the dresses in this post were acquired by me between November of 2020 through December of 2021. Enjoy! 

A few notes: 

  • Click on the names of each item to bring you to the corresponding Lolibrary page. If the name is not a link, please assume that I was unable to find the lolibrary link for said item. Sorry for the inconvenience! 
  • This post only includes main pieces and blouses. I feel as though my socks/shoes/accessories are pretty unremarkable – I do have a couple of photos of my lolita closet where you can see them included in this post, though! 
  • I will include dresses that are altered and dresses I plan on having altered, just for reference. 

 The Closet

The Closet/Mostly Everything

Here’s my closet for all of my EGL stuff! This is located a bit of a walk from my room in the house in a spare storage closet. Here you can see my dresses, shoes, headwear, bags, and more! 

The Door/Shoes

Here are my shoes! Most of these are offbrand/taobao shoes, with the exception of one pair of BTSSB shoes. Can you spot them? (Spoiler: They’re the white flats.)

One Pieces

Bodyline’s Moeran Bolero-Styled Tiered OP (Beige, 2L)

I got this piece off of Lacemarket in 2021 and actually made a blog post featuring it! See it here. I love the versatility of this piece – and I have to mention, it is one of the most comfortable pieces I own. It’s very generously sized, even more so than Lolibrary or Bodyline would lead one to believe.

Handmade Rococo Style OP                                                             

This handmade OP came from someone on Lacemarket! It’s really beautifully constructed and the fabric choice is perfect. I’m hoping to install a zipper to make this dress easier to get into! At the moment it’s quite a struggle to try and get into it since this dress does not contain much shirring. 

Bodyline’s Sailor Marine Pleated OP With Waist Ribbon (4L)

I don’t really have a lot to say about this one, I bought it around the time it was first released earlier in 2021. Unfortunately the fit on this OP is not as generous as I anticipated. Regardless, I really look forward to trying the sailor style once I’m able to make it work! 

Jumperskirts

Metamorphose 3 Tier Frill JSK (2021 Release, Plus Size, Red)

I love this dress so much I could talk about it forever. I have no idea how Metamorphose managed to make me obsessed with a non-printed piece, but they managed to do it! I saved up for a hot minute for this and was luckily able to get it before it ran out of stock. 

Metamorphose Flower Dance for Vulnerable Beauty Frill JSK

First brand piece I ever bought new from the website. This fits me comfortably despite me being over the measurements provided through Metamorphose. The shiny gold details on the print of this dress are stunning as well! My favorite detail, though, are the glass beads on the big  center bow. 

Metamorphose Tales of Kingdom Bustle JSK (2017 Release)              

I found this dress on Wunderwelt and lurked on the listing for over a month before finally taking the plunge and buying it. It’s got a feeling of wear but the print is as good as new. I love the royal feeling and intricate details. 

Alice And The Pirates Oath of Rose ~Rondo of Love and Betrayal~ JSK II

The first Alice And The Pirates piece I ever bought new! I liked the price of this (it was on sale) along with the print on it, although the neck detail reminds me of a controversial Diamond Honey piece…

Alice And The Pirates La Traviata ~the time this flower dies~ JSK I

I saw this dress, oddly enough, for sale on Depop for a reasonable price and immediately bought it! The details are so stunning and it makes me want to see the opera this dress is based on. It is in line for alterations. 

Alice And The Pirates Poison de L’Amour Juliette JSK (2012 Release)

Now this right here was my ultimate dream dress for years. 9 years, to be exact. I first saw it when I was 12 and I never actually thought I’d get to own it. I’m so lucky! This piece was altered by a local seamstress to fit me better. 

Alice And The Pirates Elizabeth ~Bride of the Death~ JSK I (2017 MTO)

A dream dress of mine! A comm member was selling this and the moment I saw the post I ran to her messages lol. I do need to get it altered so it can fit. 

Alice And The Pirates Secret Adventure and the Winery of Happiness JSK II

Wine print! I love this dress, all of the details are to die for. It was the first brand dress I bought on the release date. 

Angelic Pretty True Rose Story Special JSK

My first-ever brand JSK!! I will love this piece forever; I had it altered by Denise of Thistledown Emporium to fit me a little more comfortably and she did an amazing job. 

Taobao/Glitzy Wonderland Luckypack Astrology College

I got this piece through Glitzy Wonderland in a lucky pack! It’s super comfy, and although the material is a little shiny it’s great for going out and not worrying about messing it up. Easy to clean! 

Infanta Broken Doll, Broken Image JSK

Love this color scheme! The details and print on this dress are seriously gorgeous. I got this from Night Whisper Lolita. 

Infanta Avenue de Champs-Elysees JSK

I also got this one from Night Whisper Lolita. It was my first main piece I purchased since re-entering the fashion as an adult. 

NSG Lolita Painting Series Seeker JSK

This jumperskirt is even roomier than I expected! It also has a bow which I forgot to attach for this photo as I usually leave it stored elsewhere. 

Miss Danger Royal Heart JSK (Size 9, 2021 Release) 

I pre ordered this back in June of 2019 and received it on December 31 of 2022, just in time to be part of my wardrobe post! 

Skirts

Bodyline’s Military Sweets Skirt                    

I got this piece from a comm member in 2021; it does have alterations to give some extra room in the waist. 

Bodyline Floral Corset High Waist Skirt

This skirt is so pretty and surprisingly well constructed! It’s got a super flattering fit and the color is so cute. 

Metamorphose Rose Letter Mini Skirt

A really great find on Lace Market! I think I only paid around $35 for this skirt. This was also my first Meta piece.
