Mintyfrills Outfit: Diner Doll

When I edit photos in photoshop I get a bit too into it and end up with this tacky mess of a background, but I love it!  

I recently wore this cute and colorful outfit with my Diner Doll dress from Angelic Pretty. I love how bright and sugary this print is and coording with 3 or more contrasting pastels is my favorite! 

 Diner Doll can be difficult to coordinate because barely any lolita accessories are that bright pink color. If I had a blouse the same shade as the bright pink details that is what I would love to coord this with. Also the colorway is supposed to be Mint but it really is in the no-mans-land between mint and blue, so unless I have the exact shade its going to be difficult to make an outfit with mint or blue. 

So instead I went with a yellow blouse from Metamorphose, it works better with the dress because the yellow in the print is more pale since its the cake and popcorn etc. I don't have any yellow shoes so matching with pink also felt like a good idea! 

Then at this point its pretty easy, since I have pink shoes yellow socks will contrast and pink tights to add more color. I usually try to match my shoes with my bag so my pink melty chocolate bag felt like it went well both in color and theme. At this point I had a bit too little pink on the top side so I went with one of my common fave tricks and used the waist ties from another dress to make a big bow knot on the blouse. 

I was picking between some different headbows and felt like this bonnet was best with the whole look. It has a yellow star on the side too which was a great match! Too get some yellow on my head I added these adorable little chicken clips I made for an easter outfit many years ago. It doesn't quite go with the theme, but they are adorable and the color was right! I also had a bow that was pretty close to the color of the dress which was just perfect! And since some people were asking me, I'm not wearing a wig! Its just my hair, I wore two braids overnight and put up part of my hair in high twin tails to get the volume!

Thanks for reading! Hope you like my outfit and my post, please come back soon again for more! <3

Put together another cute outfit! For this one I was a bit inspired by 50's diners. I started with the super cute jacket from Ayummy, a brand Japanese brand that has a vintage american aesthetic. I liked this coca-cola t-shirt with it and regular t-shirts can be made so much cuter with a high waist skirt. Diners make me think of neon signs so I thought the sunglasses from WC and clear bag from Flapper really give a neon look. Since I already had some red hearts I decided these red heels from Liz Lisa would be a great fit! These frilly black ankle socks from Angelic Pretty help balance the colors and I think dark hair with the red cap would complete this look.

I put together this sweet and dreamy outfit that I think would be really comfortable. The heart of this look is the amazing printed T-shirt from Oceans in Space.

So using the t-shirt as a starting point this print has both lavender and pink, so I decided to match with those two! Since the base is mostly lavender I want the colors beside it to be pink. A light baby pink for the pants and cap, and a bubblegum pink for the coat. The cap is from Fig & Viper, the fluffy coat from WC and the pants are from Spank! 

Then matched with lavender accessories, I think the iridescent look of the bag and shoes help give it a bit of an vaporwave aesthetic. The bag is from KOL ME BABY, shoes from YRU and sunglasses from Skinnydip.

 You could potentially finish off this look perfectly with a mint green wig and of course some more accessories!

Online Store: Kawaii Honbu

I've been asked by online store Kawaii Honbu to review a few things from their shop! The sell cute clothing, accessories, plushies and anime merch. They sell a lot of stuff from china, I think its a really good option if you feel like shopping services, taobao and everything like that is a bit complicated. They also offer free worldwide shipping with every order, which makes it easy to order just a few things at the time from them. If you just need one thing shipping can make cheap items expensive. 

Here are the items from them:

Plushie $25

Shoes $46

Stockings $17

Bunny Ears $33

So I put together an outfit to try them out! The dress if from kokokim, striped socks from Angelic Pretty and necklace from Vivienne Westwood.

The shoes are pretty comfortable for high heel shoes and they are stable to walk in. The quality feels nice. The plastic part work great for showing off pretty lolita socks. Its a pretty pale shade of pink, I would probably prefer a bit more bright pink but since you can change out the laces that makes them more diverse.

I was very positively surprised by the stockings actually. They are very stretchy both over the legs and in the waist. I often have problems with stockings being uncomfortable over the waist because I'm pretty sensitive and have sensory issues so its a really big deal for me. This also means that I would totally recommend these if you are plus size, they would probably fit comfortably even if you're twice my size. They don't feel fragile either and are soft. The pattern is really cute and doesn't look cheap like many lace style stockings often do.

The bunny ears are cute but not totally my style. They sit comfortably and are not too tight on your head. One thing that I really did like is that it has lace laying under it which really nicely covers my unbleached roots, which is a plus.

The plush is cute, though its not proper San-x which I think you also can see by the cheap price. Its well made and really soft. So its up to you whats most important! I think some of their stuff is from the brands, you can usually see on the price which is which.

The shop owner is based in England so you can easily message them questions in English. Though the items are sent directly from china, which means if they are from different original sources you might not get everything in the same package. A actually good thing with this is its a lot less likely to get hit by customs fees if you are ordering a lot of stuff. And if you live in London they will also be selling at Hyper Japan this summer!

The have a wide variety of items so I recommend to check them out!

Lolita Outfit: ★ Melody Toys ★

I wore my Melody Toys dress to ComicCon Stockholm a while back. I really love this dress! It was a simple and comfy outfit. The convention was pretty boring sadly. I really like having pink hair again, fun with something new.

The outfit is all Angelic Pretty expect for my handmade necklace and some other small accessories. 

At least I got to meet the real Hello Kitty again, so that's something at least! Hope you like my outfit.

Outfit: Infanta Strawberry Doll

Recently I wore my new Infanta dress that I got from Devilinspired! Its a really cute berry print that is cute enough to compete with Angelic Pretty prints! The fabric and details are a bit lower quality than AP but still looks really nice and the pricetag is also considerably lower. I picked the yellow colorway since I want more things in this color and though I could make some really cute coords with it. In this outfit I matched it with a yellow Metamorphose blouse, my yellow honey cake headbow and cute yellow folded socks from swimmer. To match with the red in the print I have some red hair accessories that I made, a red ring and red shoes from Angelic Pretty. I added the waist ties from my red sweet ribbon strawberry dress as a big bow on my blouse. I love using waist ties from other dresses! The strawberry bag from Angelic Pretty I feel just went with the theme!

I really love the strawberry jar, dessert and basket. Its just a really good print design. Another bright side of this brand is that it comes in several sizes! I'm wearing it in size M and its super comfortable. I was just around town with my friend Gabriel getting some crafts materials and I also ordered new glasses, look forward to getting them!

Outfit: Sugary Spring Happy Garden

I wanted to do a really sweet outfit and thought I hadn't worn this dress in a while! I really love Happy Garden, its such a super cute print. I know a lot of people don't like the highwaisted cuts but I think they suit me.

Outfit rundown:

Dress, cutsew, shoes, bag, socks, hair bows, bow bracelet, rings: Angelic Pretty

Wig: Dream Holic

I ended up changing out the necklaces to an other one I made in paler colors. I also changed the shoes since my Angelic Pretty ones need to be fixed! (The bottom of them is coming off) I also added some pink bows to the front of the dress which I really think pulls the look together. Even though this is an easter themed print I don't want to limit myself to just wearing it for easter. Its a cute dress with cute bun buns for any time of the year!

I did really cute and sweet makeup, its been a long time since I wore both circle lenses and a wig! I love this wig, the colors are so cute. I've been making these star clips that I really like, I want to make more of them, maybe some to sell?

Here are two extra outfit pictures, hope you like this look!
