Theme Post: My Wardrobe

I've been confined to bed for the past week, so I figured, why not take a photo of every single lolita item I own?

I thought briefly of calling it "the crown jewel of my couch clothing collection," but I wasn't feeling up to alliteration this evening XD

Ah, really? I feel like I've barely gotten started with collecting AATP stuff- they just keep on coming out with more amazing pieces.

I laughed hard at that wording too. Goes to teach you that ugly fabric for a couch looks fabulous as a dress/skirt. Makes me wonder if the other way around is also true (fabulous loli fabric makes awful couch) and some years down the line, there's going to be a little girl that's embarrassed by their (loli) grandmother's AP Milky Planet replica fabric upholstered couch with matching ice cream cushions. XD

Girl, you know you need to talk to me before you sell anything. I love all the obscure shit you have! When did you get cameo print? And are you keeping an eye out on cheap ETC and jane marple for me?!

Anyways. Gorgeous!

[wonderfinch]

IDK, man. Stuff just pops up in my wardrobe, you can't expect me to remember where it comes from :P And there really hasn't been much lately; just some overpriced LPs and boring shit and more overpriced shit. You know I'll let you know when something exciting comes up.

Thanks bby <3

That card suit cardigan has been on my wishlist for a LONG time. Haters gonna hate! ;)

[wonderfinch]

Haha, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one obsessed with JM cardis <3

I love the AatP prints you have. And dang, I need to get back on stalking for cute Shirley Temple skirts. I only own one, but they can be a steal since so few are willing to wade though the millions of children sized items for the gems scattered throughout and the shopping services are really all over the popular items (can't count how many times I've seen "cha***" or "cre***" win an auction I've been eyeballing). XD

I can totally sympathize with what your wrote about a great print being ruined by a bad design. There are so many prints I wish came in a different style because none of the versions released do anything for me. X3

[wonderfinch]

Thank you! And good ST stuff isn't actually that hard to find- just throw in "150" or "160" with your search term and you're set, because 99% of the auctions list the size in the title. That way, you don't have to wade through baby stuff- but you still get auctions besides that 18 000 yen fork dress with 10 bidders c;

Ugh, yeah. AATP is one of my favourite brands, but they've really been making a ton of design missteps this year. St. Mephisto's Cathedral, Queen's Coach, and Masquerade Theatre were, IMHO, the only prints that they released in 2010 that had decent designs beyond the basic skirt.

I like the Romantic Bouquet OP! In fact, I have it too ^_^ But I belive the name is Rose bouquet scallop (that's the name it's listed under at the lolita stock photo pool at flickr). And I also believe that it came out in 2007.

[wonderfinch]

Ah, really? In both the auction I bought it from and HelloLace, it's listed as the Romantic Bouquet OP, so that's what I was going off of ^^
