Royal Princess Alice: Sweet Monster Castle

New hot mess coming to you in time for Halloween, Having mixed feeling about Royal Princess Alice's new print Sweet Monster Castle. It's too bad when prints get a bit to seasonal, limiting when it feels appropriate to wear it. For example my lavender Candy Treat jsk from Angelic Pretty looks great for Halloween coords but I can wear it for the rest of the year also. I think this would of been better if they just skipped the boarder print and went with the simple style of the rest of the print. They don't seem to go together at all anyways.

The cuts are as always from RPA boring and very meh. The font picked for the print name is so bad I don't even know what to say. Why not just use comic sans while you are at it? And I really understand why people are tired of crosses on everything and this time of the year its just going to get worse.

The front part of the collar is fine but the back part goes way to far down for being that plain. Shorten it or put a design on there! As always there is a lack of trim around the bottom of the skirt part. 

These tights don't make sense, why place the boarder print over the top? Why not just go with the cute simple style here too. Who's going to see it? Why did you bother? So many questions...

Get it together Royal Princess Alice, step it up.

Angelic Pretty: Princess Cat

Who run the world? CATS! Angelic Pretty is now releasing their new print Princess Cat! As I said in my initial reaction this is a print with cats in tophats, this is great. These cats be stylin'. I love the whimsy of this print, its quite refreshing. The dark turquoise color might be hard to coord if you have a sweet pastel wardrobe, but really at least its easier to coord than the "mint" Diner Doll (omg is it blue or is it mint? cause it matches with neither of those colors).  With the general aesthetics and colorways of the pink and lavender it reminds me of a crossover between dolly cat and cinema doll. The OP looks really classy and I like the design of the back a lot! I still don't get the sheer overlay, but its looks highly optional so I guess it's fine. The tiered jsk is the standout for me, I actually really like the design, the tiers make since for this print and actually accentuates it (unlike the tiers on Romantic Little Garden). I love the double layered trim in the bottom, the black layer really balances out the black ribbons on the bodice. I like all the colorways accept for the red one, I would love the jsk in any of the other three colors!
