Lolita is a style that originated in Japan and has blown up among adorable girls and anime geeks alike. I’d describe it as a mixture of Victorian-esque ruffled dresses with an element of kawaii, or cute in Japanese. Think petticoats, maryjanes, adorable babydoll curly hair, and a poofy dress that just makes you go EEE! I’ve been a fan of Lolita since I first saw a girl sporting this style at an anime convention I went to when I was 13. There are loads of styles of lolita… my favorite being sweet and classic.

I’ve gathered a few of my favorite Lolita pieces (with the help of @ninanoir13‘s knowledge of some great Lolita websites) to showcase in this week’s Gimme Gimme Gimme. Also some of the sites we learned about during Setsucon, at a panel called ‘Affording Lolita’ that showcased some of them. I hope you enjoy!

I recently bought a Lolita skirt from Bodyline. It’s a purple Love Nadia skirt and I absolutely love it. It’s not so crazy that I can’t wear it in public, and oh yes – I have been wearing it a lot in public XD
