Once again, late for International Lolita Day last Saturday lol. I was attending a photoshoot (outside and masked) this boiling-hot summer ILD, so I didn't dress up afterwards, but I did edit some old photos from Ikkicon 2017 (a winter con) to post on Insta. I had worn a Baby the Stars Shine Bright jsk with a headdress I made inspired by one from that year's release for Baby/Alice. Later I sold the dress even though it was sooo cute, I never understand why I sell my stuff lol. But as long as the new owner loves it, I guess it's fine.
Photo on the left is new to you and never posted, the photo on the right is copied from my previous post here:

Obviously since I sold the dress I can't rewear this coord, but I think it's already fine as is especially for a coord over 5 years old. I probably would just take away that huge brown bow. Not sure why I wore it, I wasn't even wearing brown shoes or purse??? I guess there were dark brown silhouettes in the print on the dress, but I should have worn a smaller brown bow and added more brown jewelry if that was the case.
I am currently working on at least 3 elaborate cosplays even though I am having second thoughts about going to cons this year, I'll probably just wear them inside my air-conditioned relatively virus-free house. As mentioned, I do have a few lolita-adjacent sewing projects to work on for summer and fall should I get bored of cosplay - an otome blouse, a hoop petticoat skirt, a replica JSK, some hair accessories, and at least one casual otome skirt with clearance fabric from Joann's. I also want to make a few small accessories that are not j-fashion but still cute. We'll see how my summer goes...
