First Bodyline Purchase. I need coord feedback!

[kensingtonhill]

So I wanted to put together a basic and inexpensive coord around an Alice in Wonderland theme. I'm basing it around Bodyline's Playing Cards OP (l518) in Sax.

If anyone also had suggestions on reasonably priced bags I'd love to hear it... I was thinking a plain black heart bag to tie in the shoes?

If you're set on a heart-shaped one my-lolita-dress has one for about $30, plus shipping (http://www.my-lolita-dress.com/loris-pretty-sweetheart-handbag-5-colors). You could probably use this for many coordinates.

On the other hand, there's also a black clock bag here (http://www.my-lolita-dress.com/mufish-alice-s-clock-sweet-lolita-bag-mf-30) for $22 plus shipping.

I think the clock bag would bring out more of the whole theme of the coord and would be a better choice for it. But the white from the bag might over power the overall darkness of the dress (if that makes any sense). It might also tie into the tights and the shoes at the same time too depending on how you look at it. The heart bag would defiantly go with the dress though, so depending on if you want it to be more representative of the whole alice and wonderland theme (which it seems you do) I would look into the clock bag. Just my two cents on this~

I definitely like both. But there are no clocks on the print of the dress and it may be less usable for future coords? It still fits the theme though so... By the way I am getting the sax color way not the black, Bodyline just has crappy stock photos.

I think I'm probably going to go with the black heart bag, I think it has lots of reusability.

Good for you! I hope you'll be posting pictures!
