Both of these styles really interest me although I'm not going to try these styles. An entire outfit can cost about 300$!!! Sure is a high price to pay for beauty. I personally prefer Lolita's over Harajuku girls. Lolita's style feels a bit more mature(although Sweet Lolita's are supposed to be childish) and fashionable while Harajuku is more wild and miss matched. It's too much of a mess...
Harajuku girls above
Lolita's have some sort of sub-styles... I don't really know how to call them...
There they are:
Gothic Lolita or GothLoli ~~~~~~~~~~~~>
They keep the Victorian-ness of the Lolita style while adding a bit of darkness. They usually look mysterious and dark. Like scary Victorian dolls but they still look beautiful. The most essential GothLoli's trait is their white face and dark clothes.
Sweet Lolita or ama-Loli ~~~~~~~~~~~~>
They are basically trying to capture a Victorian child. They do so by choosing girly, light and happy colors. Usually pink or white. Their main goal is to look "kawaii". They keep their make up bright and optimistic.
Classic Lolitas ~~~~~~~~~~~~>
Classic Lolita is a more mature style of Lolita that focuses on simple elegance. The colors aren't as dark as the GothLoli's but it's also not as kawaii as ame-loli. This style is much more simple.
Punk Lolita~~~~~~~~~~~~>
I really like this picture. I think it's a bit more soft than the original Punk Lolita. Punk Lolita is much more wild and dangerous looking than the GothLoli. Although it resembles it a bit. Motifs that are usually found in punk clothing, such as tattered fabric, ties, safety pins and chains, screen-printed fabrics are included in the Lolita style.
There are many more sub-styles but these are considered the main ones. So which ones do you like? Which it your fave? ^_^
