Hello lovelies,
at the bring and buy last weekend I realized I have been a lolita for 15 years, for me this means that I have been wearing lolita fashion for half of my life. This is so crazy!
I found animexx, a German anime and manga site back in 2004 because I loved reading manga and watching anime, duh. I registered and immediately found out that I am not the only one in Vienna who loved them.
I was introduced to Lolita from watching various Visual Kei bands, especially the band Lareine. In 2004 I started wearing my first lolita outfit, which was actually the first Communion dress of my sister, at a Visual Kei meet-up and I guess it just went downhill from then on. Just kidding :D.
My style changed a lot since 2004. It started out very sweet, went on to very casual and I think I am on the classic level now, with some OTT influences.
To celebrate this joyous 15 anniversary year I made a lolita through the years collage. Which year do you like best? Or find most ridiculous?
I couldn't find any pictures from 2011, I was concentrating more on cosplay that year.
Looking back, I had so many weird coordinations but they all helped me grow and move on. I am pretty confident with my style, in and out of lolita and those 15 years also helped me shake off a bit of my introvertness and even enjoy talking to my fellow lolitas. It took me about 10 years to really feel good in the Austrian Lolita community, better late than never.
What is your lolita over the years story?
All the best,
Auris Lothol
