Mac Hello Kitty blush though.
(47) パッチリお目目はお人形さんの証! ということでつけまつ毛は使っていますか?(With Eye-tape your eyes look like a Doll's! What eyelashes will you
wear?) lol but
I'm white. I don't wear lashes, just mascara. And that's if it's a big event.
(48) アイメイクの拘りをどうぞ。(Your eye-makeup for these

lost almost half a stone by keeping track of calories, cutting out some snacks,
and I just started indoor cycling to try to tone up my legs.
(54) 独りでロリィタは平気ですか?(Do you keep calm when by
yourself in Lolita?) Only if
people aren't giving me shit. Sometimes I just feel badass and don't care.
(55) 月々にかかるお洋服・小物代はどれくらいですか?(How much do you spend per month
on clothes/accessories?) Far too much! Although depends on the month. Last month I bought 2 new
dresses and a skirt which probably came to £500+ but usually I don't buy anything.
(56) ロリィタファッションを知ってから、実際にするまでのタイムラグ・抵抗はありましたか?(Was
there a time lag between you knowing about Lolita and dressing?) Definitely. I couldn't buy things
online until I moved out of home, and it took a while to talk myself into
spending more than £5 on an item!
(57) 今まで買った中で一番高い物は?(ロリィタ関係で)(What is your most expensive Lolita item?) Probably Sugary Carnival JSK in
pink. It cost £350 before postage and customs...
(58) ロリィタって本当にお金かかりますよね。ロリィタ費用をどうやって捻出していますか?(It
takes a lot of money to do Lolita. How do you save?) I just spent my student loan
mostly...

know.
(60) 近くに出来て欲しいお店はありますか?(Is there a Brand you want near
where you live?) Well it'd
be nice to have an AP here so I could afford to buy the little things, but I'd
end up buying so many dresses!
(61) ココだけの話、あそこはボッタクリやろ! と思う店はありますか?("Man, what a rip-off!!" Have you ever thought that about a
store?) All of
them! I never thought I'd spend more than £20 on a dress so I thought it was a
rip-off when I started.
(62) ネットショップは利用したことがありますか? ある方はその良い点・悪い点など、これからの方への助言をお願いします。(Do you shop online? If so, put the good & bad points here to advise
others.) Always.
Good points are more choice, bad points are not knowing if things will fit,
stress at battling with others for items, post risk, and dodgy sellers.
(63) ちょっと秘密にしときたいけれど、私だけにコッソリな個人 製作サイトさんを教えて下さい。(You can say if you want, but is there a Secret person/shop that you
have ordered a dress solely for you from? [I guess commissioned/replicated]) No.
(64) 絶対に手が届かない〜! でも、滅茶苦茶欲しい! あのブランドのあの商品ありますか?("I
can never have that/see that happening!! But I will always want it!!" Is
there a brand you think this of?) Juliette et Justine. I am smack bang between their
sizes so nothing would fit me.
(65) 飽きちゃったお洋服はどうしますか?(What do you do with the clothes
you don't want anymore?) Keep them anyway! Occasionally sell on Ebay, and I have friends who want
first dibs on anything I decide to sell too.
(66) 一番最近に買ったアイテムは?(ロリィタ以外でも)(What is your most recent purchase? [Even non-lolita]) Well my most recent purchase was
a shirt for my bf which is boring, but last lolita purchase was Musée du
Chocolat which should hopefully arrive this week. Also hoping to get Holy
Lantern on Saturday but I think it will be crazy stressful.
(67) もう二度と手に入らないだろうけれど、忘れられないものはありますか?(Is
there an item which you love that you can't buy/seem to find?) Yes! My two dream items. Glass
Doll OP in pretty much any colour (mainly black, white, lavender) and Gloria
skirt in wine red.
(68) ライヴなどの時だけロリィタの格好をすることをどう思いますか?(What do
you think of people who only wear lolita to concerts?) Well this isn't Japan. I'd think
they were crazy. Sweat and booze everywhere.
(69) すっぴんロリィタさんをどう思いますか?(what do you think of lolitas
without makeup?) I am
often one. I don't think it matters if you wear make-up or not. Obviously it
looks better with, but then so does every day. But life's just too short.
(70) アナタとまるっきり同じ格好のロリィタさんが! どうします?(Another
lolita is wearing the same coordinate/clothes as you!! What do you do?) Laugh about it and then cry in
private if they looked way better than me.
(71) ロリィタは何歳から何歳まで許されますか?(What age should you stop
Lolita?) Whenever
you feel it is no longer for you.
(72) どういう状態になったら、ロリィタは卒業すべきと考えますか?(ずっと続けて良いも、アリです)(When do you think you should graduate from Lolita? And why?) When you don't want to wear it
anymore. And you can always come back to it.
(73) コレだけは止めてくれ! というロリィタファッション上の注意はありますか?("You should stop that!!!>_<;" What must you not do
when dressing lolita? Can't think of anything.
(74) ロリィタとはこうあるべき! というような考えはありますか?(A lolita should be 'this'! What do you think that should be?) A lolita should be herself.
(75) 73以外で、ロリィタさんにコレはして欲しくない! ということがあったら、どうぞ。(Excluding
#73, is there anything you should definitely not do in lolita?) Mud-wrestling or something?
(76) 男の方のロリィタファッションについてどう思いますか?(What do you think of men in lolita?)
I feel a
little uncomfortable at first because you don't know if they'll be creepers but
I think as long as they are dressed well there is no problem.
(77) ロリィタをして、それ以前から何か変わりました?(Did you change yourself for
dressing lolita?) My
budget got bigger, and I didn't wear dresses or skirts before. Or pink.
(78) 周囲の人はアナタがロリィタをすることについて何と言っていますか? 受け入れてくれてますか?(What does your family and surrounding people think of you dressing
lolita? And do you accept it?) My mum hates it and verbally abuses me whenever the
topic comes up. Rest of family just says it's not for them. My gran loves AP's
fabrics though as she's a seamstress and can appreciate the quality.
(79) 真夏の暑い祭にアナタはどんなロリィタファッションをしますか?(How do
you dress Lolita in the boiling mid-summer?) Shorter AP skirt like Dream Sky, vest, no socks.

second-hand clothes?) Not really, as long as I can judge the condition reasonably accurately.
(83) 彼(or 夫)はいますか? また、理解はありますか? (Do you
have a boyfriend? [or husband?] Does he understand Lolita?) Bf, and he likes it. I wouldn't
say he understands it, but he can recognise brands and some prints! I think he
only likes it coz he likes me and pretty much everything I do.
(84) 理想の男性像を教えて下さい。(Please tell us your ideal man.) I would say Simon Neil but he has
tattoos on his fingers now and it's no kawaii at all.
(85) 今まであった中で一番印象に残ってるロリィタさんはどんな人?(What lolita
has left a big, shiny impression on you so far?) Probably Michaela as she always
seems really positive, and she recognised me from LJ the first time we met!
(86) 自分で服を作ったことがありますか? それはどんな服?(Have
you made your own clothes? What are they like?) No. I tried to make a bow once,
but I gave up.
(87) 自分で小物を作ったことがありますか? 何を作りましたか?(Have
