Create a Spooky/Halloween Themed Coord...

Hi friends! <3

www.facebook.com/groups/lolitablogcarnival/

For my coord, I chose a dress I haven't worn yet. I was hoping to wear it to a meet-up around Halloween time, but I don't think there's going to be one. I might just wear it out shopping to the local mall or antique store instead. I may switch the shoes out for my shiny black ones. I thought the rocking horse style would better suit the old-school feel I have going. What do you think?

I love how cute it is <3 When I first saw it, I was reminded of the magical Clow Cards from the Cardcaptor Sakura anime. The cat and moon image is very detailed. It is made of a thick plastic, with glitter and a silver colored adjustable ring band. I am aware there are a couple sparkly gems missing and hope to find replacements next time I'm out at a craft store. I got a good deal on it used, so I don't mind a small issue like that. The card part is  bigger than I thought it would be. I'm hoping I can work it into a semi-spooky coord for Halloween time.

Tulle Lace Princess Headdress & Strawberry Tart Set Opening!

Hi friends! <3

I've been trying to stick to just acquiring wishlist items this year, but as you can tell it's been a bit challenging. Although what I have picked up will be useful, I'm not sure if everything was necessary to obtain. That being said, I may just do another wardrobe review/clean out in a few years. 

Anyways… I was on Wunderwelt the other day and found a couple wishlist items so I'm very happy about that.

I'm so glad I was able to find these items! The black headdress is just as beautiful as the ivory version and will be perfect for wearing with my gothic dresses. The strawberry tart set is so pretty. It's more subtle then the pink version, but I love how the red contrasts with the darker background. I did notice some pinkish discoloration in a couple areas between the pie slices and the tarts. I wonder if the dress was washed and the red dye bled a bit, or maybe it rubbed off from another item? It's not that noticeable unless you're right up close. I don't mind it too much. I was aware of possible damages when I got it. Probably why the price was so good. Definitely looking forward to wearing these items sometime soon.
