Sugary Carnival JSK in sax (2011 release) |
One of the first that comes to mind is Sugary Carnival. I love the soft pastel colours. Lately, I've been wondering if I would ever want to own this dress. There have been some very cute coords that I've recently stumbled upon with it. Sugary Carnival first was released in 2009.

I looked at other prints released in the years that these two were released and somehow none of them inspire this iconic feeling I get when I think of these two dresses (not even Milky-Chan of the Fawn!). Maybe it's because of the popularity of replicas of these two dresses back then?
If there is anybody reading this, tell me what you consider to be iconic lolita prints!
In other news, my petti has sadly deflated. I now have to add my two Bodyline tutus underneath to get a decent shape in my skirt. I was considering buying another one, but first I am going to try to starch it. I read on a Livejournal post that you could place the petti on top of an umbrella and then spray it with starch spray.
I watched a video of a girl showing off her Polly Pocket collection today. It reminded me of a Polly Pocket set I had when I was little. I remembered it being some kind of mansion, no idea what the name was but was able to find it on Google. It was called Polly Pocket Light-Up Magical Mansion play set! It's actually available on eBay right now. I really wanted to buy it, but it's pretty expensive (full set is around 100 CAD x__x ). I wonder how much it cost when it was originally purchased...
It's exam season right now, but I hate studying for exams. You spend all this time studying and then you go there and do all the same things over again. It's boring. Plus, I think I have brain fog or something which makes it difficult to concentrate. Even writing this blog post is kind of difficult for me right now, but I really wanted to put some things onto here. After exams I have a big to do list ><' . I'm hoping before I move to film a video of my room. I want to have it so I can remember what it looks like. It's a regret I never did it was any of my rooms previously before moving or changing them up.
I tried starching my petticoat this way and it doesn't really revive the petticoat much. It might depend on what yours is made out of - mine is made with organza and while the starching seemed to help keep it in good shape, it didn't revive it to the poof it was when it was brand new. It's worth a shot if you have a starch spray already at home and need a petti for now, but otherwise I'd just get a new one.
ReplyDeleteI feel you on how iconic Sugary Carnival is - it really transcended time and to this day there are still plenty of people who really want it. Even though I got into lolita shortly after that, I wasn't aware of brands properly until 2013/2014, so my iconic-it-brings-back-memories AP print is Crystal Dream Carnival. Although I do still get tonnes of nostalgia when looking at Sugary Carnival and Milky Planet.
Ah, mine is organza too. Thanks for your comment! It might not be worth it to bother then.
