AYWI30C #1: Your Trademark Look

 To my fellow frillies,

    I want to start the new year in an ambitious way. I struggle with coming up with what to write so I have been stockpiling lolita challenges to use as ammunition for some new blog posts. One of my favorite lolita bloggers, Roli's Ramblings, has a wonderful 30-day coordinate challenge I want to try for the month of January. I think it will be a good test of endurance to see how long I can stick to a task. Any other neurospicy lolitas out there?

    Day 1 is your trademark look. Now this prompt really made The Curator ponder. Right out the gate and I am already stumped! Do I have a trademark look? On first thought, I would honestly say I do not. I am only one year in lolita fashion and I am still exploring my style in all the substyles I wear so it is hard to pick just one "signature" look. When members of my comm see me, what sort of style do they think of? I have been described as a "dark Sailor Moon" by one member. I think that is just because I had a period of only wearing this one old long black wig with all my coords and often braided it, giving it a Sailor-vibe. That was my very first wig so sadly it got ruined in my fruitless efforts to learn wig styling.

    On most days if I am not wearing something specific for a meet, I lean towards casual gothic. So I picked my favorite pieces that I grab often, as this felt like a good definition of "my trademark look". With this coord I would wear my natural hair in braided pigtails and do a simple makeup. I would probably wear this running errands (groceries, pharmacy, etc). In retrospect I think lace gloves or wristcuffs would work well with this, but I honestly forgot to add more accessories ㅜㅜ I'll keep that in mind for Day 2.
