For me it's not that I see the replicas as a way of saving money, but more as a way for me to actually get those designs I like. I'm way to big to fit most brands and I rarely find brand clothes I fit into. So for me replicas are a way of gaining some designs that brands have which I can finally fit into. To be honest I reallyt don't care that much for the name, I just like alot of the designs that brand lolita often have, especially Innocent World, haha :)
And I'm thinking of getting som I.W replicas I can fit, such as skirst, shirts and dresses :)

This is just a comment on the ap "replica"

I really wish people would stop calling these knock-off replicas. A replica is what a seamstress makes for an individual client or for herself. . . a knock off is something mass produced by a company.

Nothing I say will keep people from buying knockoffs but I wish they'd stop using the word replica which makes the whole thing sound much to polite for what it is.


haha sorry about that. I do love the rest of this post though! The new ETC styles are so cute!

Lovely post. I especially love the Emily Temple Cute dresses! They look adorable and comfy! Seems like a very different approach to their normal stuff, no?
