Ummm... I'm looking at putting together my first coord, and I was wondering what you thought of Bodyline's L075 blouse in black with their L187 skirt in red...? I know the pattern's really busy, but I thought maybe if I keep it simple with black patterned tights, and maybe some wine or red colored shoes and accessories, it might look pretty nice? I'm not the biggest fan of the shirt, but I'm a large chested girl, and I don't want to buy a custom blouse unless I like the fashion... Thank you!!!
I think it's decent. You're right, the skirt is a bit busy but I don't think it's too bad. I would however just recommend plain black tights rather than anything with a pattern. I was a bit iffy about the skirt at first because it looks pretty bad on the model but it looks better on the mannequin. I think they just used a really bad petticoat for the model (probably one of their own and it may have been on it's last legs from being used for several photos) not to mention the way she's holding out which just looks stupid because she's pulling it out farther than it naturally should go.Anyway, I was going to say that if you don't like the blouse you should get a different blouse, but I understand that if you're just getting it as an idea to see if you like Lolita or not you probably wouldn't want to go through the hassle of getting a custom blouse unless you absolutely could not find anything that fits otherwise.
