"Southern Bell" and Country Lolitas bear almost no resemblance to each other. Thanks for the weird elitism though! It's refreshing to see such a new form of incredibly dated elitism. caro-chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02816959125315317615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-3962825936379698142014-06-07T06:33:13.703-07:002014-06-07T06:33:13.703-07:00I do have to say, that as a southern belle, I feel...I do have to say, that as a southern belle, I feel 'country lolita' is just confused. Southern Belle didn't vanish hundreds of years ago like Rococo and other fashions that lolita is trying to revive/derive inspiration from. Yet country lolita is straight Southern Belle with a japanese tag on it.<br /><br />I don't understand. I've actually been called a lolita, when I was visiting California. I had to do some research and ask a lot of questions until I understood at all what that person was calling me. My dresses are always handmade by myself, and a lot of the pieces I wear are heirloom. Was I being extra fancy? Yes. I was on a trip, why wouldn't I? Was I enamored with brands and spending money on, what I consider, fakes? No.<br /><br />You can wear that gingham and lace, sugar, but it's just dressing up unless you're actually a southern belle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-56404428435861065412012-06-21T18:34:31.539-07:002012-06-21T18:34:31.539-07:00I'm going to do Country Lolita this summer, I ...I'm going to do Country Lolita this summer, I think it's a lovely substyle,and a very sweet one. Much agreed with the "a breath of fresh air in comparison to some of the technicolor super hair-sprayed Sweet Lolita nowadays". Country Lolitas are more natural and elegant. But I love the Sweet Lolitas, too!Nicolettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-80945385746090037132012-01-30T15:26:28.238-08:002012-01-30T15:26:28.238-08:00I love the Mary Magdalene dress second from the to...I love the Mary Magdalene dress second from the top so much.

Everyone always attributes Lolita style as a whole to Japan, but Japan merely romanticized and repopularized it.

It's definitely up there in my top favourite substyles - it's so summer and picnics and walks in the wood with no idea where I'm going, which is fabulous. And oh gosh, I love your fashion sense because that Baby OP is my dream dress! Blue and primrose yellow is such a beautiful colour combination!Amelienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-62346172646854978562010-03-25T21:29:18.588-07:002010-03-25T21:29:18.588-07:00I really like this style, and going with simple an...I really like this style, and going with simple and fresh can be great for more casual everyday lolita, too, (especially in the summer) even if it's not straight up country.<br /><br />Another fun one from the 2007 BABY catalog:<br />http://aimeemajor.com/images/temp2/sscat01.jpg<br /><br />one of my other favorites is this red check one that's been on the front of BABY's website forever:<br />http://www.babyssb.co.jp/info/img/top2.gif<br />Sadly, this image is very small and I can't for some reason find a picture of the "real" dress on my harddrive. It had little pearls on it and little ribbon roses and ribbons. They even made a doll version of the dress in 2002.<br />http://aimeemajor.com/images/temp2/sscat.jpg<br />It's been one of my favorite dresses forever!

HAHA.<br /><br />Infact, because of where I live, getting such detail flower prints is super easy so country lolita would be a cinch and cheaper to do than brands or indie overseas.Milktanhttp://www.momoberi.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023134183255884485.post-40837110083284974482010-03-25T00:57:59.044-07:002010-03-25T00:57:59.044-07:00Aww!

Ha ha in fact im waring it right know!
