Angelic Pretty: Ribbon Berry Bunny

A while back Angelic Pretty released 'Ribbon Berry Bunny'. This dress really reminds me of Sweet Ribbon Strawberry mixed with Cherry Berry Bunny. I think its a really cute print, the bunnies are adorable. I think the blue colorway has a really interesting look that could make for really cool coords but I like the red version the most!

The detachable sleeves really just feels like older cookie cutter AP, since I don't like coording with white I dont like at all. The jsk is cute and as you all know Im a big fan of scallop designs. Though the way the print ends looks a bit off, not bad but could of been improved.

Its a really cute dress that I do like, but its nothing I would buy myself.

Blingup Nails: Adorable nails!

Blingup makes adorable nailsets and they are just perfect to match with Lolita! They have lots of cute designs and I got these cute ones. They have some lovely lavender flowers and some glittery bling.

I usually get my nails done with gel or acrylic, but honestly its way too expensive and can be in the way. So I was excited to try out a nail set like this that you can put on to have cute nails over the weekend and then take them off to use again later.

The stick on stickers are practical since it makes them easy to take off but I feel like they kinda fall off almost too easy. So I feel using some glue makes them stay on better, just a bit so they still come off later.

The quality feels nice and the deco is really well attached, they also send some extra stones just in case. I look forward to using them again for a convention next week!

I really think they are well worth it since one set of these gorgeous nails cost about the same as getting your nails done once with just one color here in Sweden. They have lots of cute designs, here are some other designs I really like!

Royal Princess Alice: Glanz

Royal Princess Alice released this cat themed dress just called 'Glanz', no idea about the name choice. I like cats on lolita dresses but I'm not sure about these that just look like cats photoshoped onto the print. You can barely see the print on the white version and on the black the contrast and balancing is off. Why do they insist on putting crosses on everything? It really has nothing to do with the rest of the print. 

The lace past on the front looks okay though it looks flat and I think a border between the print and lace part with some trims or lace would look a lot more neat. They finally have lace trims on the bottom but its a but too long  and separated weirdly from the dress. The bodice barely has any details at all. Though I would love to have the white tights to wear with cult party kei. The dress isn't horrible but more should be expected with that price tag.

Royal Princess Alice: Sweet Dreams Fantasia

Royal Princess Alice recently released this tumblrtastic print called Sweet Dreams Fantasia. The print featured white fluffy kitten with unicorn horns and angel wings, for some reason the felt the need to have the word 'Necorn' scribbled over the cats on the print. Other than cats the print has a combo of clouds and space stuff. I think the print is okay, I actually like the pink colorway of the print. I have no idea why this print need crosses, I know a lot of people take issue with religious symbols on lolita and its really overdone.

But again construction of the cuts look cheap and just kinda thrown together. They still haven't figured out how to make nice chiffon ribbons.  The overlay looks cheap since it has no nice lining or lace. Sheer overlays are also last years trend, giving a feel of just following what other brands made a year ago. The bottom of the dress lacks any trims which again makes it look cheap. Also the bodice is so basic. 

Honestly the only thing that makes these dresses look okay is the great styling of the models. They look really cute but it doesn't hide the flaws of the design. I know I'm hard on Royal Princess Alice but since they take the same prices as Angelic Pretty and Btssb I have some expectations of quality. Not their worst but lots of room for improvement.

Second week of my new Weekly Fashion Favorites thing, I really like making these and I love that its just happy and positive. Last weeks post was my most viewed post all week and I'm so happy people like it! Thanks. <3

Found this really cute outfit from Senca on her lookbook and I just love it! It's super colorful and quirky. I love the bright blue blouse, it contrasts really nicely with the pink knit. The beret and shoes both match the colors great and add to the unique aesthetic. 

Follow Senca on lookbook for more!

Here is Charlie looking adorable in Angelic Pretty's Magical Princess, a print that is just adorable and remind me of magic sand castles. Its cute and colorful and super sweet. I really love outfits with two contrasting pastel. Pink and baby blue always looks cute and sticking to just the two colors makes for a really well put together and balanced look. The Styling is also really cute, the hair color looks really pretty with this outfit.

Go check out Charlies YouTube channel!

Fellow Swedish lolita Agnes (or BowsBeforeBoyss online) is one of my favorite lolitas and fashion inspirations (and just people in general). She is amazing at doing ott sweet lolita outfits and here's another adorable look from her. She is wearing the 2016 lucky pack from Angelic Pretty, the print is called Whip Factory and has lots of super cute cakes. The coat and fur collar makes it look really warm and cozy. I love Angelic Pretty's pony bags, they always make a outfit extra cute. As always she has big hair, wearing a teased up wig from Dream Holic.

Go follow Agnes on instagram for more!

Aline Kireyeva is a super cool fashionista from Israel who always looks amazing. I just love this look so much! It looks like, yeah I'm adorable but I'm a badass too. I love the silver hair with different lengths and the orange glasses look really pretty together with it. The little touches of pink with the pompom earnings and pink gun phonecase just adds so much to this. Also those shoes look awesome.

Check out more of Aline's outfits on lookbook.

And last we have Saltje, a lolita and artist from Belgium, wearing this adorable white and cream lolita outfit with cute gold details. The outfit looks perfect for winter and she looks like a snow angel. The gold star bag looks super adorable and I think it really pulls the outfit together.

Angelic Pretty: True Rose Story

New upcoming Angelic Pretty print, its very romantic and sweet. Its different and has interesting colorways. Each colorway really has a different feel which is absolutely a good thing! Again still not a fan of overlays and this one is way too white. It makes the dress unbalanced.

My favorite colorway is the pink one (well of course, haha) and since the overlay is meh I like the jsk a lot more. I think the blue and red colorway could make really interesting coords though so look forward to seeing that.

Sorry for not posting much I'm trying to get back at it but I've had a down period lately. Know that I'm trying my best and I will come back. <3

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.

Fashion Valentine: Tori Time

After a few months break fashion valentines is now back! This weeks fashion valentine is the lovely Tori. A pretty well dressed lolita from the US. I love that her outfits always feel so perfectly balanced, both with colors and with having just the right amount of accessories for a cohesive look. Her outfits never feel like its 'too much' but not at all plain either. Be sure to go follow her on instagram and tumblr!

I love how she picks up the gold details of the print, more complementing the print than distracting from it. This looks like it is both perfectly dressed up but still comfy enough to just go into town shopping. Matching the shoes with the bag always looks great but having the cardigan and cute bow on the blouse really works!

Tori really looks like and angel in this cute but more classic look. The headdress is so pretty, I love the little details hanging down over her fringe. The hair is big but not overtaking like some rhapsody wigs can be.  

I feel like this deep blue color suits her perfectly, I love the hairstyling on the left picture. It really completes the look. Her makeup is always really cute too. It's nice that she takes the time to get really nice photos of her outfits, there are so many girls that dress amazing but never get any outfit pictures. 

Her outfits always feel like a complete set, nothing looks out of place. I love wrapping ribbon, and she coorded it so cute here. And I love the bag that she has on the right picture, every colorway of the bag all look amazing. (I want one too!!)

Tori always looks on point and her style inspires me because I want to make my looks as cohesive as hers. I often have problems getting the right balance on my ott sweet looks. Tori you look amazing and keep doing what you are doing. I look forward to seeing more of your outfits.

Avenue Denfer: Whale & Corsair

Taobao brand Avenue Denfer released this new print Whale & Corsair. I made the collage above to show off this cute dress. I actually really like this print! The marine theme has been really popular this still feels original. The print is detailed without being messy, the whales are so adorable. 

The jsk has a nice cut, its a simple and basic cut for a sweet lolita dress but its really well made one. The quality looks nice and it seems to have good lace also. I'm not a huge fan of lolita skirts, this one has a good shape but nothing interesting. There is nothing really wrong with the salopette, its the same kind Angelic Pretty has been making lately. Its just that it is too long for a short skirt and just comes out as a regular lolita skirt that is too short.

All in all I really like this dress and I would love to have the jsk in the light blue color! I also love the illustrations of girls wearing the dresses, I always find those very inspiring!

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!

Angelic Pretty: Romantic Little Garden

Angelic Pretty released Romantic Little Garden a few weeks ago. To be honest I think its a bit bland, the colors are pretty pale and its just not very interesting. The crosses feel kinda out of place in the theme of the dress. 

I don't understand the choice to have a tier there it just looks.. off. But other than that a cute dress I guess. Can't wait until sweet season starts again and its just even ending. I don't have money anyway so maybe its a good thing.
