A very Romwe dream!

I'm usually quite happy with my shape, even though I'm the larger side, wearing a size UK14/EU42. There is time though I wish a was a lot thinner, mainly to be able to wear all those lovely pieces of clothing there is. I rarely have a hard time getting clothes that fits well, but there is webshops I can only dream of shopping at. One of those are Romwe.com. I don't know how many times I've found myself on their homepage, just flipping to endless pages of awesomeness - at really good prices. One of those dreams are this dress.

 

They call it the ''Rose Plaid Cut-out dress'', and it's in the Valentine sale.  Down from $55 to $53. Not that of a bargain, but I would buy it in a heartbeat if It fitted me. No kidding. 

New fave!

 I bought this dress a few weeks back, but never got around to show it off to the world! It's from Asos, like most of my clothes. It was reduced to £13, down from £20-25, can't really remember! When I saw it, I just knew I had to have it. I love this sort of dress, as it is quite flattering, and fun with the flare skirt.

Oh, and it has polkadots, and kissmarks. KISS! ~

NEW IN: Rainbow-splash!

A new little dress I picked up from the Asos.com sale last week! I've been wanting this dress since I first saw it last summer, but I thought that the price back then - £40 - was more than I was willing to spend on a summer dress like this. Then it went on sale for £19, and I was so tempted to buy it but didn't. I'm rather cheap when it comes to shopping, and I rather buy a lot of cheaper items, instead of one pricey one. As a student, £19 is still quite a bit for a dress that you have no plans to wear - just hang on the wall. Then, last week, it went down again - £12 this time. I could no longer resist, so I bought it!

 Even though I really love the dress, I'm very glad I waited! The fabric isn't that good, and I have a feeling I slightly ripped it when trying it on! However, I can't help but love the whole concept of this dress! The coloursplash of colours. It makes me think of melted rainbows, twirly pop-icecream and adventuretime. Also, it's very much Nyan Cat.

 Oh, I do like the open back! The yellow fabric you can see is in the front.

As always on asos - I picked up some anatomical! This time - Shampoo! I gotta say: IT SMELLS FANTASTIC! I have tried a lot of different products from this brand, and I do like it. It's not the best, but it works great if you're on a budget! The bottles feels very fresh, and young .. very .. studentlike.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Booooooh,.. booo! *blood-splatter*

Happy Halloween to you all!

It's been kind of a slow day, and it's still going! Perfectly good plans got cancelled due to retardness, and I've felt rather uneasy today! It's just one of those days, I guess! I've on the other hand manage to do something somewhat productive today! I'm almost finished with my Halloween-costume! I'm going out this upcoming saturday, and you have to dress up(YAY! Soo much fun!)! My first thought was to go as a psyco-clown, but as I needed a wig for that - I changed my mind. So instead, I'll be going like this:

 It's just a basic sketch, but I'm quite happy with that, even though the sleeves will not look like that! I can't wait to try out that make-up! I've been watching youtube tutorials non-stop these past couple of days, I just home I can pull it off!

I pretty pleased with how it turned out, as I'm really not the seamstress that I wish I could be! The fabric is really soft, like a fake velvet, and it is in a glorious hotpink! 

I will wear it with my black organza underskirt, in a 50's shape! To be honest, I think it's a bit too long for me, as I'm on the short side, but it will have to do. 

The only thing I'm not quite sure about is the bows! My first thought was to do bows out of the same fabric, and putting them everywhere on the dress! But then I found these two lovelies, that I made a couple of months ago! I completely forgot that I had those, and the pattern is just too pretty to not use! Is it too much to use two different kind of bows? It's Halloween, afterall! 

I will post a picture of the whole outfit sometime next week, so you can see how it turned out!

BYYYYYE,
Dollythe

A vintage dream in mint

 I love what summer do to my room: it makes it all pastely. You see, when may-june arrives, I start to put my summerclothes out, and with that comes all my baby coloured stuff. Dresses, underskirt, cookiejars, necklaces - you name it! One of the things is this dress. It used to belong to my mum, for almost 45 years ago. She had it for her bigbrothers wedding, when she was a flowergirl. It's a bit wrinkled, but I actually like that, it's a great effect to such a simple dress. 

 I love the tulle, it's really sher and romantic. I would want a dress just like this one, I would wear the crap out of it!

 It's homemade, by my old auntie, who also helped me with my promdress. I believe this was one of the first things she actually made herself! It's really well-sewn, and it looks perfect, even though it has quite a few years on it's neck.

 I found this little cookie-jar at a fleamarket last week, and I fell in love instantly. Bunnies are normaly not my cup of tea, but I love anything that's related to cookies, so I just had to have this one! It costed me 5SEK/50p/$1, which is really a bargain, if you ask me! :>

BUNNY-BUNNY-BUNNY-BUNNIES!

Another printed dress!

Can't wait to wear this dress! Bought it on sale at Asos (the brand is Oasis) during the winter months, and I'll soon be able to use it! Makes me oh-so-happy! ^^,

Pictures from my camera.

Why I love Asos

This little piece of awesomeness is on it's way home to me! I saw it on the asos homepage today, and I just had to have it! £16 normal price, but got 10% off! Bargain, yes indeed! I'm really weak for pattern on clothing, so this made my heart melt directly, hah, did you see what I did there? Melt? Ice Cream? Really mature, thankyou ~~

TOPSHOP MAKES ME HAPPY!

Cost almost as much as 1 month allowance, and it's only my size left. I think I see a pattern there!
If you're lucky, you can still get it at Topshop ~~

NEW IN: FOXY VINTAGE LADY!

This is exactly why I <3 Ebay & Etsy! I've been on a hunt for a cute, non-expensive vintage dress for quite awhile now, but I've not been able to find anything. Either it's not been my style, or not the right size, or too pricey. One day, I finally found something. A really punkish skaterdress with a pleated skirt, velvet collar and cuffs, in the perfect winter-colours. My size. $10, perfect vintage condition. I was so-so very happy about this. Without much thought, I bought it, and last week it finally got to me!  Fitted like a glove! Nothing to complain about! ^^,

I got the bag from Ebay. I've been looking for this bag for quite some time, after seeing it on other blogs (Cupcake's Clothes have one, in a tan colour). I found one on a swedish site, called Talking Clothes, but that one was a bit expensive for me at £40! I found another one from a british webshop called Temporary Secretary for £18! In the end, I got my from Ebay for around £6! It's not the best of quality, but it's not a bag I'm going to use everyday, so I don't really mind that. Just a fun little thing.

SO SO CUTE right? ^^,

hugs, dollythe THE DOLL.

OOTD: a bad one.

I .. don't know what happened. This doodle is nothing like I wanted it to be, it really doesn't look like me, that's for sure. I should probably not post it, but in lack of other things, I'll post it anyways!

I bought the dress in London, at Primark. It was reduced to £5 from £12-15, I can't really remember. I just love the warm, orange colour with the gold buttons, which I made black in the picture, for some odd reason.
I love skater-dresses, and this one is adorable on! It's a bit short on me though, which is rather weird, as I'm only 5''2/158cm.

The shoes are just some old Mary Jane pumps I bought ages ago!



xx, Dollythe THE DOLL.

FOUND IT FOUND IT!

Been searching for the perfect dress or pattern for my graduation-prom, and I think i finally found it! (THANK YOU ETSY, ILOVEYOULOTS!) I've always wanted something vintage-like, something that no-one else in my tiny little town will wear! Something big and poofy! But I've come to my senses. .. A perfectly nice 50's dress will do just fine me thinks! And this is the pattern:

 It cost about $15 with shipping, which is not too bad, now i just have to find a fabric that I like. Colour? I'm thinking rainbow.




With sparkles, Dollythe.

Half a year left.

Yes. I do know, that there is still more than 6 months before I will be needing a promdress, but I can't help but look. I'm probably a bit late, actually. I know plentiful of people that already have their dresses! That's a bit boring if you ask me, there is nothing better than looking at prettiful clothing, and of that, I'm sure.
When it comes to my dress, I have a lot of thoughts! I want something really sweet - and less promish. It can't be in the colour red, dark blue or baby green <- that's what everyone have. I want mine to be gold, orange or yellow. Something that really catches your eye! The style I want is a bit Victorian, think like how they dressed in the 1800 - like royalty!  I might need to sew my own dress, which could be fun - or a disaster.

Why looking through Etsy ( WOOP-WOOP, big surprise) I found this little beauty though! Vintage, baby pink, romantic - but nothing like I've imagined!

 It's so lovely, I think I'll melt. The price? A bit out of my range at $825, but still.
Knowing my family though, I think I will end up buying this instead, and get my own touch to it.

I want to feel like a princess, if even just for the day.

Things I do when I'm bored

Things I do when I'm bored and normally have something really important to do, put I push it aside and be bored instead. Because Being Bored is the way to be.

1. Painting my nails.
Over and over again. Think i've changed them 3 times today, and that is really no good for my nails, but it's funtastic so I can't help it. As you can see, I'm pretty bad at painting my nails too, sadly. 

2. Adoring my clothes.

This little beauty came last week, from ASOS.COM! I love-love-love it! Oh, way to much. It has a pretty little skater skirt too, but that's not in the picture. £18 did it cost me, and that's probably one of the most expensive things I've ever bought myself.

3.  Playing with tape.
I love tape, tape tape, any kind of nape. My sketchbook looked a bit sad and dirty - woops - all pretty again with bowprinted tape!

4. Wrapping gifts! 
My besties birthday is coming up! On thursday she will be 17! How odd, she still feels like 12 ^w^

Awful day, that I've spent, doing absolutely nothing at all. YAY!

My cherry-printed dreams

I'm so very sorry, my dearest world. It seems that I can't think of anything but printed clothing. I feel bad, world, I used to have so much to say.

It's been a long day, a very long day. Handing in essays to what it seems like everyone, getting graded, getting judged. Stupid ivory-people, stupid thunder-Thor, stupid paper-stabbing companies.

How can I catch up when I don't want to?

oxo.

Graduation-cap - CHECK !

A love for lolita.

According to an almost-friend of mine, there is a happiness-system. It's really easy to understand if you think like him.
-10 sadness
0  O.K
+10 happiness
like this for an example; being sick is -5, but getting a new dress is +7, you will still end up on the happyside, tus, you will have a good day.
And today, it's been a really-really good day. My head hurts, throat feel icky, can barely think BUT i finally bought it - a pink princess dress! I really can't wait for it to arrive, i'm so-so-happy!

It's not going to look like the thingy above, but the pink colour is right. I'm happy that I diecided to go with the plain, pink one with white underskirt instead of something with poodles on it. I might use this one - quite a bit too.

Longing for lolita

Since I graduate this year, I think this is a perfect time to finally buy the thing I have been longing for - for so-very-long. A lolita-styled JSK. Everyone is going to walk around in pretty white dresses, and there I will be, in something cheerfully colourful. Myes, I would like that a lot. Small-town-people, watch out! I'm not sure of what style I should go for though, due to I wouldn't look cute at all in knee-socks, and it's probably going to be really warm (Hopefully a big lie, i would love for it to rain, giving frizzy hair to everyone, yay) so petticoats might be a no-no, which I find very sad. I love tutus, underskirts, petticoats - but I only have three of them (black, peachy-peach & light electric blue). My first thought was to get a white dress (!) and then just pair it with a colourful underskirt and some pretty shoes, but i can't really make up my mind.
I think this is really pretty though

( pic source, Cupcake's clothes)

That thing is home-made by one of the bloggers i follow (which I think everyone should check out, the girl is a big inspiration, and she makes really cute jewellery), but you understand the style though, right? Sweet and really girly lolita, adorable! I really believe that I would feel pretty awesome in a dress like that. I love the fact that the print is made and not store bought too, that way no-one will have the same thing. I could probably sew one, if I ever leave my computer for long enough, which I doubt I will. On the other hand, no-one around here even know the word 'lolita', so i will be fine if I buy one online too. Sadly, i'm from a H&M wearing town, and it is nothing wrong with that, right?

I guess I just have to think about it some more, that's all c:

If I said I feel happy, how would you feel?

Been feeling like a total sleepyhead today. Third day of school, and already tired. Always look on the bright side of life, na na na na na <- we got one week off school soon, well .. 68 days or so, but that's soon right?
Don't have anything that i'm going to do that week, due to the England-plans not working out, but i'm always happy about not having to spend my days in a yellow-hell-hole. It's oh-so-sad, really.

I just adore this little orange thingy that i got from Asos a few days before school started, it looks so perfectly preppy! Looks even better with my lovely bowprinted tights, atleast I think so.
And did you know what? I AM FREAKIN' AWESOME AT DRAWING SHOES. Tee-hee.

ooo,
Dollythe the doll.

OOTD fúr skewl.

Back to school, ring the bell, na na na na na na, i can tell that we're going to be friends, nananna
^ that was my attempt to remember the lyrics to one of the best songs with The White Stripes.
I'm happy that this day is finally over, even though it was rather nice being back at school, meeting up with everyone, eating pizza c:

.. and this was what i wore, minus the weird-looking boots, decided to go with black tights&not-so-odd-looking-boots instead, because apparently it is still summer. 

ooo.
