Hello, all,

I just made a post on my blog about this, with links and prices and such, but I wanted to share the information here, too.

I always use blouses from normal stores in Lolita, I own 2 'real' Lolita blouses but they only fit to a few dresses. If they fit to Lolita why shouldn't you use them? ^^

I wore the last blouse to a normal Lolita outfit: http://puppenschloss.blogspot.de/2012/11/did-i-forgot-to-post-about-my-own-meet.html

Thanks for sharing. That coord is pretty cute. It's exciting to see that blouse on a regular person instead of just on the model.

I've never looked at Aliexpress for lolita. I've always gotten a bit of a shady vibe from them, or thought that they're a Taobao reseller.

Does anyone actually know anything about Aliexpress?

I order from there and all I can say is that you have to be careful who you buy from. Check the seller ratings and look at the product reviews. If you aren't happy with your order you can return it.

Thanks for the info. I guess that it's like buying from anywhere on the internet then. You just have to use common sense.

I personally don't really like to spend too much money on blouses just because I feel I can find a cute blouse on yesstyle or ebay. By the way thanks for this. I really needed a blouse and I didn't want to pay $40 at bodyline for one.

You're welcome!I'm glad that this was helpful for you. I know I always hate paying so much for Bodyline blouses, especially when they're sometimes as boxy as any of these mainstream ones.

Me and my friends got this basic blouse from F21 last year! It's a perfect one for casual lolita and wearing under a jsk.

That does look like a great loliable blouse. Awesome find! It's a shame that it's sold out now.

This is great and I wish there were more posts on loliable high street finds. I'm tall, so I have a hard time finding Lolita blouses that have long enough sleeves. I know some taobao shops do custom orders but I'm a bit nervous of doing that. It makes me sad that brand blouses never look quite right on me!

[raven71818]

Happy to help. Custom orders are always pretty nerve-wracking, but I know what you mean about sleeve-length. I'm not tall at all (5'3"), and I still sometimes run into mainstream blouses that have too-short sleeves. Madness!
