January 2025 : Wardobe Post

It's January, so it is once again time to document my wardrobe for posterity. I honestly don't care if anyone else views it, I use these posts as a way to keep an eye on what I own and keep track of trends in my own habits.


The main changes to my wardrobe over the last 2 years are that I spent a lot of effort obtaining basic blouses in Meta's "plus-sized" range and expanding my collection of Sheryl Lacy JSKs. I sold some items that didn't fit me, which is a bit sad funny as they would likely fit me now. My body size has changed a bit, where I was more-or-less requiring plus-sized blouses a year ago, and now I only really value them for their generous shoulder room. They are perhaps a bit too spacious for me, but I won't be replacing them as the bone-structure of my shoulders will not narrow no matter how much my body composition may shift. Standard-sized women's blouses are generally cut at around 35cm shoulders, so my broad 41cm frame suits these plus-sized tops much better. I don't regret removing some of my too-small items from my wardrobe as it was what was needed at the time.


I also spent some effort obtaining winter-friendly outerwear that was more size-inclusive. My AP coats were very small in the shoulders, so I invested in better winter coats that would actually keep me warm in inclement Canadian winters and not squeeze my bones like sausages.


I re-skinned my mannequin last year. She was covered in a non-stretch fabric with sequins all over. It had the fun appearance of scarlet mermaid scales, but made dressing her a nighmare as the sequins would flip and snag on garments. She is not an analogue for my body size, so some of my items don't fit her well. My petticoats in particular like to slide off of her, as she has practically no hips to speak of where I have an abundant waist-to-hip ratio. I never really appreciated what an issue slim-shaped hips can be for Lolita fashion until I obtained this mannequin.


Unfortunately my old taobao shopping service, 42 agent, closed up shop suddenly and I don't have access to my old purchases, so for some of these old items I no longer know exactly where I obtained them or what they were named. C'est la vie, I suppose.

My collection of rings and bracelets


I did not include my parasol collection as it hasn't changed at all since I last documented it. I also realised I had missed 2 pairs of socks but I cannot be bothered to set-up my photography situation again. I also chose not to include my scarves and earmuffs and other more mundane winter gear, which I may instead document in a post regarding winter-appropriate Lolita fashion gear.

If you've somehow found this wardrobe post and made it to the end: Sugoi~! Amazing~! And I hope you enjoyed looking at slightly overexposed photos of my collection (wintertime photography at night in Canada is a challenge)!
