lolita-ness

I REALLY like these slightly obnoxious stripe and dot coordinations at Angelic Pretty. post 1 and 2 ... I like the use of the hotpink cardigan, too. I have an AP hoodie kinda like this one (in black). I have to say I was pretty shocked that it fit me. (hurray!)

This dot tullified pink skirt at AP is pretty silly fabulous, too. Apparently I'm going to have to go try to find pink dot tulle. I love that the ribbon in the back has had it's tails curled up. AP always has the best back-bow details, whereas most brands just make the same bow for every skirt.


I know I want This swan skirt from Meta ... but I'm not sure which color would be best for me. the two that I love are the white/blue and the black . (I don't care for the pink or burgundy). you can see the other colors here, too.

The black is really striking and beautiful, and a much less conventional lolita color combo (because of the intense blue) than the white one, I think. I love it!

(Oh yeah, the burgundy one is odd--why are the poor swans swimming in pink yogurt? o_O)

I really like the black version of the swan skirt. It shows more detail.

I *adore* the black/blue one -- really unusual and eyecatching!

it's almost unanimous that I should get the black one! So I think I will be brave and get that one. :) I don't usually coordinate with hot purples like that, but it should be fun. and the swans stand out way better on that one. (the whole point of getting it is that I love swan lake motif stuff, so I should get the black one)

Personally I like the white swan skirt pictured in the post. The pink/purple is a bit too, I dunno, blends in too much? That and from the wardrobe you've shown us, I think you need more diversification, I've seen you in tons of pink, the baby blue would be really nice on ya.

I like the black one. reminds me of Cinderella rushing home at midnight. very Faery Tale.

Wow I love that black swan skirt, *I* would wear that if I didn't think I'd look like a boy in drag in lolita ;_;

well, I dunno with the colors of that skirt, I bet it would be easy to punk out.
I think I will get that one though, even though it's different from my normal colorways.

I'm all about the black+blue swan skirt. It's just so different~~~~~ I drooled over it for a little bit when they were announced. And the polka dot AP top is a complete YES. I just wish it was colder in SoCal so that we could actually wear cutsew jackets. I have two and I haven't worn them yet.

it's so cold downstairs where I work, I actually get a lot of wear out of lightweight cardigans and hoodies!
I can't decide if that polka dot one is awesome or just a "bit much" though. I bet it would fit considering that the other black one did. :)

I think I will get the black skirt, everyone seems to like that one better.

I'm lovin' the black skirt! I would never get away with wearing that myself, but I could see making cushions or something with that material!!!

Speaking as a guy, I think the swan skirt is incredible, and my next favorite is the upper right, which seems very "Aimee" to me.
