Do I Have to Dress in Lolita Every Day?

This is a question tht many new lolits, including myself, have struggled with. Do I have to dress in lolita every single day? Will I be shunned if I don't? What if I want to wear jeans and a t-shirt some days?

The truth is, you really don't have to constantly wear lolita! There are those that do, called lifestylers, but they make up a small percentage. And contrary to popular belief, no one will shun you for not wearing lolita daily. In fact, on a normal day, I wear jeans, hoodies, cropped tees, and floral prints. These are hardly lolita, but they don't make me any less of one. Lolita is a fashion, just like gyaru, punk, 80s, and anything else you would see in the mall. You don't have to be fully dedicated to one particular fashion. You can dabble, and have several favorites. Lolita is the same! And even within lolita, one can dabble in different styles.

The bottom line is: you are no less of a lolita just because you choose to wear different fashions. Some people have work where they can't wear lolita; some people have uniforms fr work or school. Some people have limited wardrobes and others simply don't want to go out in lolita by themselves. All in all, a lolita is a lolita no matter what he or she wears. It's all about what you feel on the inside, not how you look on the outside. =)
