Choosing Your Style

So, now that we have a world of knowledge under our stylish belts, now what? Buy the first dress we see? Nope! First things first. What style should you go for, in a sea of so many different colors, prints, and frills?
If you don't already know, this step can be hard, especially if you like many different styles. Which is the best for you?

Do you like pants better than skirts? Boystyle may be for you.

Do you prefer prints or solids? Prints are more often found in sweet, country, punk, wa, and qi lolita. Solids are more often found in gothic, classic, sailor, hime, and some sweet lolita.

Do you prefer darker or lighter color schemes?

What is your favorite theme? Do you prefer cupcakes and ice cream cones or instruments and tea cups? Strawberries or cherry blossoms? Tiaras or plaid?

How would you like to wear your hair? Huge, Marie Antoinette style? Curled? Straight? Multi-colored wig?

Do you like more mature styles or younger, brighter styles?

Which lolita pictures or dresses are you drawn to the most?

This site gives descriptions of each style if you would like to read more in-depth.

Answer these questions and see if you can narrow down your favorite style.
It's okay to have more than one favorite style! Most lolitas have two styles they dabble in. I prefer gothic and sweet lolita, two opposites of the spectrum. They leave one open for options. But for right now, let's focus on one style.

What is yours?
