I have been trying to catalog some items that I consider oldschool lolita 'classics' or 'staples' in my personal opinion - I feel like these give me instant flashbacks to back when I first knew lolita. I'm building my oldschool lolita wardrobe, and would like to own at least one of each 'category' or a similar indie piece!

pink roses in black skirt

These instantly remind me of the agejo days. I love how they serve both for lolita and to scratch that oldschool ma*rs itch, so I've wanted one for the longest while ~

mint roses skirt

Sometimes more green, sometimes more sax. the one I marked as 'owned' is actually a replica but yeah

tulle and/or lace skirt

Although tulle is generally regarded as a 'newer' trend, restricted to petticoats in the oldschool days, it interests me how some brands - particularly those in the goth side - were doing skirts in full tulle and/or lace in the oughties. My LARME stan side loves tulle and lace and would love to be able to incorporate it in oldschool lolita. Useless sidenote: the cool lace skirt vs lame lace skirt quarrel is sending.
