Always best to take your time in buying/ordering anything, impulse buys are fun but risky haha

That is true. I was good and went to bed without ordering anything ;)
I did follow your advice and looked at the side column and the suggestions at the bottom and found some more pettis that seem very similar to the other ones and also have many reviews, but one more layer of tulle :) Those are definitely a bit long though, they're supposed to be 65cm. But whatever, I have scissors :D
I'll look at things again this evening and see if I can come to a decision.

the more layers the better poof ofc, and lolita skirts with print on them definitely come out better looking with a full supporting petti :P
the best thing about ali imo is that you can get something cheap so you won't feel bad about cutting into it etc c':

Yeah, I think I'm gonna go for one of the 6 layer ones :)
They're not really more expensive than the 5 layers and as you said, more poof! :D
And yes, for those prices I can definitely just alter them however I need and if I mess it up royally just order another one :)

I got my casual layering pettis for cheap too, not off ali but def cheap enough that if they end up torn or sth its no big deal c':

That does seem like a good approach :)
The question is now, which colour do I want and do I order just one to see how they really are or two at once for the layering possibilities?

Your skirt is dark so you don't have to worry about a colour being too dark/showing, so you can basically go with whatever colour you want c;
hmm shipping from ali can take a while, so personally I'd go with 2 at once, cause if you order 1 and then wait 2 weeks for delivery, notice that its not enough poof on its own that's another 2 weeks wait etc
and also I'm not that patient to risk the chance haha

I'm debating either going black or dark brown, so that it will be just dark and hard to notice if it shows, or some nice beige or golden colour that would look like a nice contrast if it happens to show sometime.
Yeah, that is a valid point, but on the other hand, if I order two but find that one actually is enough for my taste, then I'll have an extra petti that I need to store somehow :D Although on the other hand, I could maybe leave that one long and try if that works with my one other skirt that I don't really have a fitting one for... And I could just order two different colours... Hm...

Yes :D Ultimately I have to make the decision on my own, but writing out my thoughts helps :) So thanks for reading my ramblings ;)
Currently thinking that I should just order one in black and one in a nice light colour and then see about which I cut how much after trying what other clothes each of them work under in what length as well. Then even if I don't need to layer them, hopefully I won't have one that is a complete waste of wardrobe space :D
