I do very much enjoy wearing the foresty styles too! Here are some of my favorites from this past month; before it got so humid and hot!
I've been trying to chronicle this outfit for over a year. The layers and thinness of some of the fabrics makes it wearable for only a short amount of time in the spring or fall.
This coord on lookbook with clothing list
Detail of my necklace and hair comb. No thats not Innocent World, but rather a very similar necklace I found at a costume jewelry shop and glued to the comb.
A more ethereal take on the Maid Marion type coord I wore before. Same scarf too, worn in a different way. Modeling my new (to me) purse.
My poor frameless glasses are dieing, so I've been wearing these which are transitions. They don't make for the best photos though!
A more Otome take. The scrunched socks with the boots and lace leggings makes me feel like an old school bishōjo manga. The dress was actually the first lolita jumperskirt I ever made (from thrift store curtains), which still is amazingly wearable even though it's unlined with unfinished seams!
The knit collar was made for me as a present from my good friend Molly. The cuckoo clock pin I inherited fairly recently from my Grandmother.
I wonder how many Lolita's also wear mori/natural-kei as their more day to day clothing?
Ohh~ Your last two coords are very pretty!~ Since I'm more into Lolita than Mori-Kei, I suppose I like the last one best (>u< It's very cute~ The first two are much more elegant though~
ReplyDeleteFor the first coord, do you have a more beigey-coloured shirt to wear with the skirt?~ I should like to see the same coord, but maybe with a lighter shirt. (Or maybe it's just me). Regardless, thank you for sharing!~ (>u<
I love you mori look. I want to get more Mori outfits, they are more comfortable to wear on a daily basis. I love the last outfit!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you both.
ReplyDeleteMori is far easier to find then lolita. Most of my items that aren't handmade I found at thrift stores, or common stores like Kohls, Tjmaxx, walmart, the local farmer's market.
I did previously wear that knit shell with a white turtleneck:

I have to admit I just love the pop of color. I know it's not strictly strictly mori-girl; but it reminds me of a bright flower in a dark forest!
