I agree with you there. It doesn't say Loli to me either, but you could probably customise it to suit more of a lolita style. But even then, it wouldn't be exactly lolita.

Lolita started as a very DIY fashion and I'd love to be able to say that I disagree, but unfortunately I can't. It seems now that you do get judged if you go out wearing an old print or something that cost a little less... I really wish that that wasn't the case... |
