Doll Dressing

Since the 1970s are becoming fashionable again, I could not think of a better idea to match some newer dresses with some of the older Blythe dolls.

(almost) Famous...?

I made this photo during LFW this September and I had not put it up until now. Reason, my photoskills were not fantastic for this photo. Nevertheless I like the deceptive simplicity of the outfit: it looks effortless but is actually quite high-maintainance.

The actual reason I put this one up is that she looks famous or somewhere I've seen before. Does anyone know?

Pretty Things

1. & Other Stories Earrings | 2. DvF Sutra Handbag | 3. Bimba & Lola Necklace | 4. Zara Cardigan | 5. Nicolas Kirkwood Heels | 6. Alexander McQeen Dress

I simply feel the need for pretty things right now...

Yellowish

 1. Topshop Marigold | 2. We Are Handsome The Thief | 3. Burberry The Mini Blaze | 4. Beats Pill | 5. Kurt Geiger Bastien 2 | 6. Diane von Furstenberg Camisha

Today I felt just like various shades of yellow. 

After we Met...

Dress: ASOS (old: love this one , gorgeous red here & this one) | Clutch: Vintage (something alike) | Shoes: Zara (in turquoise too) | Mask: Venetian (gorgeous ones here)| Suede Laser cutout Jacket: Topshop (Adore this Muuba one)  | Necklace : Similar | Ring: gift 

It has been the whole mix-up of events that I wanted to go beautiful gown: the Met-Gala, the crowning of the Dutch King & Queen, and "the Great Gatsby" ofcourse.

Details of accessories & Opi Do You Lilac is as pedi (not that visible)

It has been about finding my own dress:  I basically think it is not that you should just look good in your dress: you should feel good about your dress as well as to make you the women you would like to become: "mermaid", "romantic", "princess" or perhaps "femme fatale", "sexgoddess" or "dominatrix". Mine made me feel romantic and mermaid-like.

The jacket is both whimiscal by the artistic cutouts and has a cooler vibe by its black suede bikershape. The peek-a-boo laser-cutout enhances my strong and toned back. After all, fashion is also playing up the parts of your body that you are proud of.

My only gripe is my curvy hips, ofcourse, but after seeing Beyonce on billboards for H&M I do not feel that uncomfortable about looking feminine on photos.

So, what do you think about the dresses at the Met this year?
