[coord] Alphonse Mucha for New Year's

Sorry it's been so long, I haven't had the opportunity or desire to wear lolita anymore, so I have been selling more than wearing. But here is a recreation of my New Year's tea coord from 6 months ago. The theme of the day was "Fancy as F/ck" as we were going to a tea house meet (there was no Btssb tea party at Ikki-con this year.) I ended up driving home in the hail and ice for five hours instead of attending the new year's eve festivities because I had work the next day, at least the tea earlier that day with my friends was so nice!


[JSK: Quaintlass; blouse: Innocent World; tights: Grimoire; shoes: Taobao; purse: Angelic Pretty; headbow: Baby the Stars Shine Bright; jewelry: Forever 21, H&M]

I love the print and silk and lace textures of this Mucha dress but sadly this Quaintlass (a Chinese Taobao brand) dress just did not match anything in my wardrobe. I was lucky to find a deep green hairbow on sale from Baby, but otherwise everything, especially the off white (more like a golden cream) did not match. I originally wore this with a mori-kei sweater, but I was sweating into a bout of heat exhaustion wearing this coord in a Texas summer indoors so no go on the winter layering lol. If I could redo this coord, I'd attempt to find more emerald green necklaces or hair accessories, but otherwise, I felt pretty good with this simple classic coord. I may sell this dress later if I don't find anything else to wear with it, but I felt out of all of the Mucha print dresses, this was one of the better designs, Innocent World's was too simple.
