Your line of work does sound very interesting, though :)<br /><br />When I was still at uni I would wear lolita pretty often, although I got lazy about it at times because there were days I'd only be on campus for an hour and it seemed like a waste of an outfit! Nobody ever made any comments when I did wear lolita though, and it was just accepted as a normal thing so I was pretty lucky in that sense!<br /><br />I love that you are still able to incorporate some cuteness into your work clothing!

I work in a machine...OMG, you're so very lucky! I work in a machine shop, so I can't wear Lolita to work because of safety reasons. Also, working with coolants, oils and such- it could cause me more problems. <br />I will note, however, if I was JUST a college student, I'd likely wear lolita every day because there aren't any real clothing guidelines(other than don't have your bosom out for all to see, although my BFF had a classmate come in with nothing but a sheer blouse for a top and you could totes see her nip nips through it- so I don't think the rules are very strict).<br />If you want to wear Lolita every day, do it all day long!!! You're in college, and that's a great time! :)<br /><br />Me? I have to settle for fairy kei elements for work, I have pastel pink corduroy pants, for instance, which cleans quite well, among other things. :)The FI Witchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14543590385984045596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748750670622129930.post-69791805219610336362015-01-22T13:21:11.047-08:002015-01-22T13:21:11.047-08:00Haha yes, that part about cycling was inspired by ...Haha yes, that part about cycling was inspired by one of your posts! :) <br /><br />I knew what you meant but others seemed a bit too ready to jump on you about potentially wearing lolita for everything XD The same thing happened in the other thread I referenced. I think a lot of people can't get over the fact that lolita might really be everyday clothing for some people, and are quick to ridicule it... which is a bit silly given that lolita is a "street fashion"!<br /><br />Casual j-fashion is a really good workaround for when you don't feel like wearing lolita, or can't for whatever reason. I like trying out pop kei inspired looks sometimes if I'm only leaving the house for something very brief!<br /><br />Glad you liked the post! <3Spiffykiddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07171770828732667123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748750670622129930.post-67519892495745314482015-01-22T12:21:10.575-08:002015-01-22T12:21:10.575-08:00I think this is a lovely post but I think you may ...I think this is a lovely post but I think you may be talking about me about the post about cycling ;u;<br />I 100% don't wear lolita all the time I was talking about j-fashion and lolita inspired clothes which I think alot of people in the thread were confused about~<br /><br />either way a great post~ :') <3PastelOpheliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00221876992911938522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748750670622129930.post-33161964959495250172015-01-20T10:43:51.787-08:002015-01-20T10:43:51.787-08:00In the second paragraph I was supposed to say &quo...In the second paragraph I was supposed to say "loose-fitting trousers".

I totally agree-- it is much ...Oh, that is awesome! I totally agree-- it is much easier to blend in when you wear more mature, classic pieces as these are more likely to have similar elements to mainstream clothing. I am not sure if you have heard of a girl named Fanny Rosie but her tumblr is worth checking out for inspiration on incorporating lolita items into a work wardrobe. I would quite like to be able to wear classic pieces to work one day but I don't know how well I would pull that off as I'm so used to sweet lolita! I'd be willing to give it a try, though XD<br /><br />I totally understand what you mean about weather and laziness! If it's extremely hot, for example, the last thing you want to deal with is all the layers that lolita coordinates usually consist of. And even if it's not really, it's easy to think of lolita as being way more effort than wearing something else! When I'm at home I'm usually in a t-shirt and some look fitting trousers! Not very kawaii XD<br /><br />I don't think I could ever wear a full lolita coordinate when simply lounging around at home, either, so I think I'd be more likely to try a bloomers and cutsew idea, or a loose fitting cute dress like the one pictured above. I think my main aim would be feeling cute whilst being comfortable, rather than trying to look like I'm a super coordinated lolita 100% of the time, haha!<br /><br />Thank you so much for your comment! It was lovely to hear your opinion on this topic :) <3Spiffykiddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07171770828732667123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2748750670622129930.post-4505319929396308512015-01-20T07:13:49.074-08:002015-01-20T07:13:49.074-08:00I read an interview to a 24/7 Lolita in a Lolita w...I read an interview to a 24/7 Lolita in a Lolita website a few months ago (in spanish) and this girl said that she wore it at her job and at home and that she used it in public transportation in busy hours. She also said that she had bought some civilian clothes but that it has been a waste of money for her since she only wears Lolita. There was a picture of her wardrobe and it looked like mainly classic pieces. I suppose some styles are relatively easier to wear daily than other, classic is, apparently, the most versatile and work-friendly of them all. I would love to have the kind of life that I could wear fancy Lolita clothes around the clock but it is not the case. Wardrobe size, weather and sometimes even laziness gets in the way of wearing Lolita. Maybe I would not wear Lolita 24/7 even if it was a social convention or requirement. But, hey, your ideas to wear Lolita at home are great. Once I read a girl who said that she wore Lolita everyday, not at work, but after. She would come home and change her clothes. Maybe I could try to do something similar when I come home from college but it feels like a lot of work to go through...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954773807141443570noreply@blogger.com
