One more post of this coord 🍂 fall is one of my favorite times of year, the bulk of the trees here are starting to lose their leaves and not just change color, but it's still a lot of fun to walk through them.
This is Meta's new Halloween release. Usually babydoll cuts are not my thing but for some reason the massive bow does it for me. It reminds me of the types of bows one would see in the magical girl genre. Even more fun, three other friends also got this release in orange 🧡
Very comfy and already planning another time to wear it

A coord idea that I really want to try
So I have these two pieces:
Noblesse Oblige by Kaneko and Antique Frames And Royal Jewelry by Baroque x Sakizo
And I've had them sitting in my closet for a bit because I just don't have enough in my wardrobe to style them with. I think my main issue is headgear. I have a gold filigree masquerade style mask that I could use for the Baroque JSK, but it seems too small for such a nice dress. And I don't have any black KCs or berets.
But!
I have an idea. I think that a Tudor era French hood could look really cool!
Something like these. I would probably want to make two separate hoods because of the difference in colours and styles between the two dresses (the Kaneko one being more like the one on the left, the Baroque one being more like the one on the right) but I think that a French hood would be the solution to my problem. I would obviously edit a couple things, like making the hood not cover my ears, and maybe add some less historical embellishments to make it fit more with lolita than having it be a completely historically accurate piece.
I found a website that shows how to make them and they seem like a relatively simple project, though I have very little experience making any sort of headwear outside of putting a bow on a headband. I would like to try making at least one for my Baroque dress when I have more time later this year.
Has anyone else tried using a French hood in lolita? I've seen a couple for sale from Taobao scaled up a bit and decorated for a more lolita style, but I've never seen anyone wear it.

I always find it so interesting going through old blogs on here, seeing the coordinates of people no longer active. I think there is a lot to learn aesthetically, and as a window into previous lolitas and eras, I always wonder, do they still wear lolita? Do they still have these friendships? Where has life taken them?
I'm glad this platform still exists in a way that makes it possible to find old blogs. I hope they are doing well.
