I want to start the month off with this post. Despite not having any working links or images to document, it calls to me.
As someone who wore lolita back before brands went out of their way to cater to non-asian bodies, I really hope this person has been able to stick with the fashion to see the boom of lolita fashion. In just a few years, even Baby the Stars Shine Bright will release an L size! While that size didn't last for long, Taobao and many other non-Japanese indie brands would come soon after to swoop in and take advantage of the demand for either custom sizes, and soon to be several multiple sizes!
Later the same day there was another post dated 2002, but the comments were dated as 2007, but just in case, I will mention it anyways. The post asked for nail inspo, and a commenter linked to a photo of a set of nails she had created herself. Honestly, in my opinion, they are super cute regardless if the year is 2002, 2007, or 2019.

So, once again, another post from 2002 with 2007 comments, someone requests some photos of their Usakumyas!
Though I am inclided to believe that these comments are correctly dated at 2007, according to lolibrary, the most recent Usa in 2002 would of been this boi, dated at 2001:

Well I've finally figured out the mystery of why some posts pop up as 2002 but has comments dating 2007. And let me just say, the majority of these posts thus far are from the same person, but due to their nature of the posts, they don't usualy have much substance (if any at all) for me to actually archive anything. In all honestly I was wondering why one person seemed to be spamming the community so much, almost alone, but there were always so many different commenters? But I guess this comment sums it up pretty well.

If anything in the EGL community hasn't changed, it's over-enthusiastic noobs, and people doing Mana's work, telling them to chill the fuck out.

I miss the days when lolita's did cool and interesting photo shoots and shared them with the community. I know sometimes people do, but the aesthetics and feeling just aren't the same anymore. Well, I think this is a good place to end for this week. Until next time.
