So you want your parents to buy you some killer Lippy goodness, but you have your concerns. I can commiserate, having been young once myself. You can just imagine them surfing the site … the various thoughts that might well pop into their heads … thoughts that might stand between you and the receiving of that kick-ass gear you’re itching to find when you tear open the wrapped packages awaiting you this holiday season:
“Why do they have to use the ‘F’ word so much?”
“What sort of naughty, naughty people wear all those dirty, perverted fetish outfits?”
“My word! Those skirts are awfully short!”
“If our little __________ (insert your name here) wears these sorts of clothes, they might actually *GASP* do nasty, sexy things in them … we can’t have that!”
You get the picture.
So, being as we’re remarkably sensitive to your needs (and we kinda like to sell stuff, too *heh*), we’re here to help you in your quest to get some new Lip Service goodies from the people least likely to give you hot, sexy gear. Here, you’ll find photos with direct links you can forward, so they will have no need to navigate around to things we don’t want to trouble their worrying minds about.
You’re welcome.
Now, this means that a few of the tastier naughty styles need to come off the table. We must be realistic here. Bottom line: The purpose is to get them to kick in for gear, not frighten them, so we’ll keep to the bare essentials. The stuff that will still look hot but not freak out the grown-ups.
Point one … Keep it (seemingly) clean.
Parents love to see you in new clothes, just not ones they know will make members of the opposite sex think impure thoughts. So, the strategy is: Make it SEEM clean, but still have sexy appeal.
A few choice examples:

Bat Attack Cap Sleeve Dress

Black Diamond Dynasty Mini

Dark Desires Underbust Skirt

Perfume and Lace Mini Skirt
Note how all of these skirts SEEM just a hint longer than they really are, just long enough to pass parent muster. Yet, you will notice that the added length is an illusion. In most of the skirts, lace or tulle creates the FEEL of more inches while you get to still show lots of leg through that sheer non-cover. And the Dark Desires skirt can be adjusted to slide just a bit further up the thigh … once you’re safely out the door, that is!
Point two … Safe Lolita sexy
The next “safe” area is mostly easy, if you think strategically. YOU know that certain “little girl” looks are über-hot, yet your parents are blissfully unaware. You’d like to keep it that way, wouldn’t you? So, stay away from the bits of that look which will set off red flags in their minds (that means, sorry, no sexy schoolgirl on their dime). Pick your Lolita-inspired looks with care … they’ll think you’re just darling in them and, most importantly, you’ll get to rock the sexy.
A few good examples:

Gloomy Doom Broken Kitty Hoodie

Bat Attack Raw Edge Skirt

Bat Attack Tunic Length Top

War of the Roses Striped Dress
Note, in particular how the Gloomy Doom hoodie, in addition to its girlish goodness, is also cropped (YEA!). The Bat Attack skirt has the illusion of length, but that’s just tulle. Then, the tunic … don’t you just love being able to wear something your folks would NEVER approve as a dress, simply because it’s a “long shirt” worn with your best sexy, butt-hugging friend, legging? And, when looking at the War of the Roses dress, don’t forget to notice that lovely keyhole back opening, to add a little seemingly-safe skin to the lacy girlishness. Overall, I’d say it’s a big collection of parent-friendly-yet-sexy-as-hell WIN!
Point three … Give them “light” dark
Okay, you know you’re a creature of the night. But it freaks them out a little … or a lot. You don’t want to suggest styles that will make them head someplace else for *gack* bright colors and *wretch* festive patterns, do you? Of course not. If you give them something that FEELS like middle-ground to them, they’ll kinda feel like you’re coming out of this “phase” you’ve been in and … as parents are wont to do … encourage your emergence from the black darkling cocoon that so disturbs them. We can find a happy medium, particularly one that still gives you lots of gothy goodness, can be blacked up with other pieces, and -again, most importantly- will pass parent muster.
A few examples:

Bat Attack Cap Sleeve Dress

Tokyo Trix Evil to the Touch Jacket

Dark Desires blood-colored dress

Perfume and Lace Cap Sleeve Top
You’ll notice the Bat Attack Dress, when requested in the purple color, is a two-fer. Not only will you get bats and a still-rather-lovely dark color, you get a bit of length-based illusion as well. Epic win! And, while there are phrases which might be parental hot-spots in the Tokyo Trix jacket and Dark Desires dress, trust someone who’s been there (and heard, “Why do you have to wear black ALL the time?” more times than I care to recall). They’ll be so glad to see something on your list that’s not black, they’ll barely give a passing second thought to “evil” or “blood”. It’s color, so it’s all good. And, of course, you also get some girly-lacy Lolita-like goodness from the Perfume and Lace shirt. Not too bad for not-black, eh?
Last, but certainly not least …
Point four … Look for skin that’s not “being exposed”
Let’s face it, there are a lot of ways to do skin … and your parents are really only mainly concerned with one or two ways of you showing it. So, take advantage of that by showing them styles that are low on rack-baring cleavage but still high on the sexy skin meter. You’ll still look hot and they’ll think you’re demure or something. It’s nice when they delude themselves like that, isn’t it?
Here are a few choice examples:

Gangsta Pranksta Lace-up Bodice

Desensitized Drop-sleeve Jacket

Synthetic Machine - Machine vs PVC Hoodie

Webutante Returns Unisex Hoodie
See what I mean … skin, but not what will register to Mom and Dad as “skin”. Take the Gangsta Pranksta bodice, for example. It’s not a dramatically scooping neckline like the padlock-collar shirt in that group, yet is still low enough for some sexy. It has that little bit of back peeking through the ribbon lacing (which you can always replace later with slimmer stuff after your folks see it with more coverage – like the site photo which is also parent-friendly). best yet, it is made of yummily body-hugging bengaline and, with the backless silhouette, is not bra-friendly. SKIN WIN! The Desensitized jacket speaks for itself. Clingy, stretchy with little hooks which can be undone lower once safely out of the house plus panels of sheer netting that don’t look sheer at first glance, but are tastefully skin-forward. And, well duh, the super-sheer of fishnet and spiderweb lace. “Why, of course, I’ll ALWAYS wear a tank or shell under it, Mom!” *HA!*
One of the wonderful things about most parents of teens … they tend to hear what they want hear and try not to think about what you’re really up to when you’re not at home. Hopefully these links to seemingly “nice” Lippy will get you the stuff you really want to get … not the awful, “good girl” crap they’d get you without a gentle guiding hand toward the Lippy they’d consider buying. Let them feel like they won in this. Let them enjoy their serenity, thinking they have gotten you nice, appropriate clothing instead of all that “trashy” stuff you really wanted.
Then go out, smile, and style it the way you rock it best!
