Gothic Lolita Fashion
Gothic Lolita is a Harajuku street fashion. A post-modern vision of rococo decadence and victorian elegance, lolita merges innocence and macabre, sweet and urbane, femininity and feminism, in a surprisingly reflection of our times. Whether taking afternoon tea in chic salons or enjoying a night out at the trendiest club, lolitas are both at ease and incongruous.

Just curious, because I would really love to meet some local lolitas some time but am normally too shy v.v
I've been in Colorado for a few years now but have no lolita friends to have elegant tea parties with...

Captian
Just in case anybody doesn't know there will be a meet-up this weekend, on the fifteen, in Denver all the info is here....

I also wanted to post to see if there are any Lolitas in or around Colorado Springs who would like to do a meet-up that day as well because there is a Japanese cultural festival going on down here, sorry it is kinda last minute but i just found out about it. If you are planning to go to the denver meet we could meet a few hours before the Denver meet-up starts.
I also was think of planning a very casual meet-up in C-Springs, just so new Lolis or those who are scared to come can come. I was thinking of going to see a movie then getting frozen yogurt. I am hoping to make it very casual, so that even if you don't feel that you are a new Lolita who doesn't have a lot of lolita stuff can come, or people who are interested in the fashion but don't have any clothes yet can come. I just want the community to come together since it has been kinda dead lately .
Thanks for reading-Mariah

Hey, I'm a new Lolita in the Boulder area, are there any others around here? I was wondering if anyone would like to hang out on Pearl Street or something.

Just a quick post, I actually joined this community quite sometime ago as http://youran25.livejournal.com/

However that account is dead, and I no longer use any of the contact info associated with it.

 

I hope to get acquainted, or reacquainted with all of you once again.  ♥

Hi everybody. c: I'll be a freshman at UNC in Greeley, CO this fall, are there any lolitas in the area? I love the fashion but I'm not confident enough to wear it very often, it'd be awesome to have a friend.

The time has come again! This time, the dress up battle will be held at Nan Desu Kan, this September! Put your coordination skills to the test to compete for a cute prize! This is a special coordination competition!

Three teams (or more) of three people compete against each other. Each has a lolita model with 8-10 items of her wardrobe (shoes and wigs included), and a changing booth. Accessories are UNLIMITED! Hair products and makeup are optional. The person in charge of the game has a pile of cards with themes on them (Sweet Tea Party, Lolita at a funeral, Work Lolita, At the Ball, etc). She draws one, reads it aloud, then the teams have 10 minutes to create an outfit with the wardrobe pieces they brought. Models are encouraged to wear a tank top/bloomers underneath for modesty; team members are also allowed to leave their station while they change for privacy.


When the ten minutes are over, three judges give a quick critique and pick their favorite one, earning a point. An extra point comes from the crowd (audience favorite) to avoid ties. As the rounds continue, each team has less and less time to get ready. (Ex: Round 1 is 10 mins, Round 2 is 7 mins, Round 3 is 5 mins, etc.) The number of points increase for each round, since they are put on a time crunch to finish! (Ex: Round 1 is 1 one point for vote, Round 2 is 2 points per vote, etc.) Team members will also be judged on how they "present" their lolita to the crowd! The team with the most points wins the battle, and a prize! Teams should be switching their Lolita every round to avoid wardrobe inequalities or popularity contests.

Post here, At the Facebook Event page or on the NDK Forums if you are interested in participating as a model, judge or a team member! I will only accept judge submissions after we have found enough people interested in being a model or team member. ^^

I will be hosting one other panel dedicated to lolita fashion during the weekend called the Lolita Crash Course. I encourage everyone to stop by and see me! This is a post to gauge interest in game participants. Invite your friends! Participate!

CURRENT LIST OF EXPECTED PARTICIPANTS:
Models: 3 needed
Team Members: 2 per team; 6 needed
Judges: 3 needed, 2 found- Raven, Danielle
8th-Jul-2011 04:07 pm - Gothnic 2011?
 Hey! I was just wondering if any of the CO lolis were going to Gothnic this year in Denver? The... 17th of June I believe? 
11th-Jun-2011 04:01 pm - Sales post! Help me pay for school!

Hey guys, I unfortunately cannot afford to keep up with Lolita anymore, as I am needing to save buttloads of money for grad school, and get rid of things as grad school for me involves moving overseas. So sad for me, but good for you? Anyway, all of my lolita dresses are listed on ebay in the link below. I'm hoping there are lolitas out there that will give them good homes, and help me pay for school.

Thanks. <3
