When I first discovered lolita fashion in the mid-2000s, a lot of the community and resources existed on blogs and forums. There was a certain magical feeling to the blogs and forums and the lore which it contained. Over the years, the lolita fashion community has moved away from LiveJournal and personal blogs and onto modern day social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Discord and Amino. These platforms have the benefit of helping lolitas across the world connect and interact, however they lack the exciting feeling which the old platforms evoked. Some of us were participating in lolita fashion while the community existed on LiveJournal, while others of us have only known the community from Facebook and Instagram.
‘Quills & Frills’ is meant to be a love letter to the nostalgic feelings we share for the old lolita blogs and LiveJournals, and to share this feeling with the newer generations of lolitas and ouji. We hope to share guides, reviews, art and the opinions of some lolitas in the community with this blog.
