Glamorous Ageha Yukata from Sweet Angel

Tuesday, May 15th, 2012

Yukata and kimono styles have changed a lot from Japan’s traditional days, as you’ll see in this post where several of them are given an updated Ageha look! I’ll also be sharing some GOR-GEE-USS traditional sets, which are sometimes worn for weddings, graduation ceremonies, coming-of-age ceremonies… If you clickthrough to those, you will see that they are veeeerrrrry expensive!! @_@

These are all from the Rakuten shop Sweet Angel, which specializes in these super-feminine, Ageha-style yukata. They also have elaborate headpieces (lots of flowers and combs!) and obi in tons of colors and styles.

Satomi Yakuwa Lavender Floral Ageha Yukata

Ooooohhh how prettyyyyyy. ; 3;

The flower print and colors are so soffft. ♥

Sayaka Araki Black Ribbon Ageha Yukata

The darker colors on this one make it a little edgier than the lavender one!

You’ll have to clickthrough to see photos of it from the back, but it’s worth looking at to see how the obi falls in poofy layers of lace!

Black-and-White Traditional Kimono

This one is VERY toned-down compared to every other thing I’m featuring here. XD

There is an elegance in simplicity, however, and the flash of white at the bottom adds some excitement. But it’s still overall very tranquil.

White-Pink Rose Full-Sleeved Kimono Set

…And we’ll jump right back into the elaborate designs with this!

This is the REAL DEAL. This kimono set is serious. It’s for weddings and ceremonies.

Weddings and ceremonies where you want to truly bedeck yourself in massive pink flowers. Go wild.

Mint + Pink Traditional Hakama Set

Mint and pink is one of my MOST FAVORITE COLOR COMBINATIONS!

Look at how sweet and lovely it is! The blossoms trailing from the shoulders down the sleeves are sooooo pretty! ; 3;

Monday, May 14th, 2012

Today’s post finds us browsing ModCloth again. The cutest selection of kicky shoes is featured below! n_n

Special Treat Wedge

Okay, so sandal wedges are probably my favorite style of shoe.

And I love polka dots.

And I love big fluffy flower accents. o^o

You Candy Do It Heels

Guess what I love even more than polka dots. GINGHAM!

And bright colors!

And bows!

And bright colors on bows! O^O

Scent a Signal Wedge

Aww how prettyyyy!!

What a lovely floral design. ♥ Like picnics in the park.

Rachel Antonoff for Bass Vice Versa Wedge in Black

More polka dots!! ^o^ I just… I just love polka dots a lot. ;_;

And as if these weren’t cute enough already, look close at the cutout little shapes at the heel. They’re hearts! Omg!

Cedar Forests Sandal

How prettyyyyy!! I just adooooore shades of neutral green. Natural is lovely!

And a floral print again. . 3. Because they’re so girly and sweet!

Be Kawaii Even in Your Underthings

WHOOPSIE, AM I POSTING UNDERWEAR AGAIN

YES

YES I AM

Hello Kitty Colorful Bunny Boyshorts

The Colorful Bunny series is one of my FAVORITE THINGS HELLO KITTY HAS EVER DONE. O_O

Boyshorts are so RIDICULOUSLY comfortable.

Basically these are perfect and if I had them I would never need any other thing for the rest of my life.

Dainty Lace Ribbon Bow Trio Panties

Sooooo cuuuute!!

This store has SO MANY TONS of adorable panties in so many different styles, it was hard to pick one to feature here. ;_; I picked these because I love the selection of pastel colors all arranged together there. ♥

Annnnnd the trio of teensy little ribbon bows is just precioussss!! ^o^

Strawberry Stripes Bra Set

Ahhh how beautifullll!! oAo Vertically-arranged stripes in pale colors always looks vintage-y and elegant to me. ;^;

This is just an incredibly lovely bra set. This would be what you wear underneath your Summer dress when you go out for afternoon tea. ♥

Polka Dot Soft Panties

These sweet panties are the same soft fabric that “roomwear” is made from, which is very popular right now! Roomwear is for indulging yourself in. Stepping out of a hot bubble bath and slipping into something warm, cozy, and CUTE like these.

Roses & Lace Petticoat with Garters

And now we step away from cute and right into sexy with this hot little number! o3o~ I like it a lot. The roses and lace keep it super girly and elegant, and of course I would not accept anything less! n_n

Elegant Dresses from Diva Rosa

Saturday, May 12th, 2012

Here’s a selection of ladylike dresses from Diva Rosa, another Rakuten store that should please followers of gyaru and ageha styles. n_n

Chiffon A-Line Dress with Beading

We’ll start this post out a little casually, but don’t worry, you’ll see just how full-blown this store’s dresses can be in the next one!

The color selection is pretty limited, but this style of dress is really cute, and chiffon is always light and flowy. ^o^

Full Bell Volume Princess Dress

O^O

Princess dress indeed.

The deep wine red one is soooo romantic. ♥

Floral Maxi Dress

Maxi dresses are so popular right now! The rhinestones around the waist on this one give it extra sparkling flair!

I like that the color for the flowers is only splashed around here and there. n_n

Glitter Lamé Flocked Dress

I am in love with how subtle the black color of the overlay is over the pastel color of the dress. o^o See how you can only see that it’s black where the fabric gathers? That’s so cool!!

Ruffled & Ruched Princess Bell Dress

O3O~~ Almost a variation of the other princess dress listed above, but this one has rows of ruffles around the dress and I think the bodice is prettier!

This is what I would wish to wear to Prince Charming’s royal ball. ; 3;~

Sweet Lolita Dresses

Friday, May 11th, 2012

Sweet Lolita is the style of choice for pink-loving princesses!

These dresses from Refuse to be Usual are replicas of Angelic Pretty prints mostly, but that makes them affordable pieces for growing wardrobes. ♥

Angelic Pretty Milky-chan the Fawn JSK in WhiteI love Milky-chan. ;_; I wish they had it in brown, which is my favorite colorway for this print! ^o^ Oh well, can’t be too picky I suppose.
Angelic Pretty Miracle Candy JSK in RedThe headdress is included! That makes this a very adorable and VERY affordable matching set. ♥
Refuse to be Usual Princess Lolita Victorian Parasol Pink DressHmm, I actually don’t know the proper name or designer of this dress! n_n; I don’t think it belongs to Angelic Pretty, so I thought it might be Baby the Stars Shine Bright. I’m not sure, though.

Either way, it’s very girly and princessy! I would love to wear this and go to tea. ♥

Angelic Pretty Miracle Candy JSK in BlueWhoopsie, am I featuring Miracle Candy twice?? n_n; But it’s because it looks so darn cute in all of its non-pink colorways!

(And I’m trying to break up the colors here for the sake of the readers – if it were up to me then all of these would be pink! XD)

Refuse to be Usual Pink Maid Cafe Cosplay UniformOkay this last one IS NOT LOLITA!! OAO I just thought it was an adorable cosplay and wanted to feature it here. o^o

I am actually on the prowl for a maid uniform. But I love so many of the designs I’ve seen and have no idea which one to buuuuuuuy!! ;____; It’s so haaard!!
