2020 Wardrobe Post!
We're late! But we took the final photo on Januari 31st at 23:56. Just as last year, this post is for two persons, Nikolai (IG: @sorgevinter) who used to be a daily EGL Mana-clone but now is a daily boystyle hobo, and Jenny (@angelicprettystarshine) who is a daily lolita/otome/himekaji/whatever you want to call it. As can be seen Niko's wardrobe shrinks for each year while Jenny's keeps growing. Mainly due to limitations in time and motivation. Not shown: the 10+ brand items (MmM, VM, Baby, Aatp) stuck in alteration limbo, bloomers, pettis, hats, umbrellas/parasols, shoes, an almost complete GLB collection, other lolita publications, a million brand clearfiles, catalogs, cards, posters etc, as well as a million items from Imai Kira, Yoh's Monochrome World and similar. Just assume there are more of everything.
