New Dress

Hello all. First I want to say that I am in great spirits at the moment. My handsome demon prince in sleeping right next to me, I can't ask for anything more....well except maybe a lovely new dress to share with you!

Alice and the Pirates

I got the matching socks as well because I don't really have that many socks and none with blue in them. 

Here are some detail shoots,I just love this print so much.

Also this is the first dress I've gotten that has the crossing straps in the front. I really do like the image it creates and it takes away the need to wear a necklace. The fabric is nice and light so I can wear it on warm days and not be over heated.

And me in the dress.

I didn't really add anything to the outfit because it is a really busy print.

I just need a dark simple bow.

Shoes: Bodyline rocking horse

I just want to give another shot out to Tokyo Rebel, whom I order the dress from. They always give me great service and fast shipping. I will continue to shop from them.

Happy Belated Lolita Day

Better late then never! So this past weekend was IDL as most of you ladies know. This year I returned to NYC for another panel discussion at Kinokuniya Bookstore. I'll be honest I didn't have as much fun as the year before but I think part of that was because my friend Amy wasn't able to join me.

Tara and Megan were the first ladies to go up and chat. They are the shop girls from Tokyo Rebel. You get to see them a lot in videos they do on the site's blog. We got an exciting announcement that Tokyo Rebel is going to be have a tea party to celabrate them carrying Baby the Stars Shine Bright. It was nice being able to ask them some questions about the store and themselves.

Next was Aly from Miss Lumpys blog. Number one I love her blog, her post are always to sweet and she really has an elegant way of writing. So defiantly check her blog out! She came to speak to us about her recent trip to Japan and her experience being a Western Lolita there. What I though was interesting was how the "rules" don't seem to be as important there, and they seem to explore with different styles instead of identifying with just one style.  Also I found it neat that she wasn't really viewed as a tourist when she was dressed in Lolita over more common clothes.
I was also excited to get the chance to chat with her after her panel. She is very sweet and I hope that we get to meet again at another meet up along with  Puchi Puchi .  She is another CT blogger I got to meet .

After that we went to the Sanrio store to pick up some cute Hello Kittyness and then to a noodle shop for lunch. All and all it was a good Loliday. I think that I need to have some big plans for the next one in December! Now with my outfit pics!

Tokyo Rebel Review

 Last week  I got my first Angelic Pretty dress, Holy Night Story! I ordered it from Tokyo Rebel, a US store located in NY city. Because I live in CT it only took 3 days to get it (minus the weekend), maybe it would have been faster if it wasn't for snow.  Ordering from Tokyo Rebel is very enjoyable. Site is easy to navigate and they stay in touch well letting you know when they receive payment and when your items ship.  They also make it a fun experience just to open your box! Here is my journey.

Packing slip with small poster, also they gave me a AP sticker too.

 This is the thank you note that was on top. I really like it when a merchant takes the time to write a personal note. You feel like you are a person not just another order number.

 Everything was in a AP bag. This is my first brand bag! All the girls online talk about the things they've done with their bags now I have one.

 Dress was in a garment bag which I really like. This is good to use in the future when I am traveling. They even sent it on a hanger...I needed more so this helps.

 Dress was packed well, it didn't have that stuffed in a box look sometimes you get.

 I also got an AP ring! I had to go all the way and get a bow and accessory to match.

All I can say is "Angelic Pretty I DO!"
I will defiantly order from Tokyo Rebel again! They are one of the best online experiences I had. I would love to visit their store front as well.
Check out their site now because they are having a AP sale! http://www.tokyorebel.com/
