Sweet Cream House was one of those prints that just grew on
me. It’s popular and reasonably cheap second hand, so you do end up seeing it a
lot. The more I did, the more details I noticed and eventually got one myself.
No regrets! Even if I do lack a few more shades of brown to really make this
shine.
Look 1: Chocolate
| DreamV cutsew | Angelic Pretty Sweet Cream House OTKs | Sosic Shop shoes | Cutie Creator headbow | Milkribbon brooch | Once Upon a Cookie Treat necklace | Twinkle Kitty Boutique rings | |
This is a pretty standard look. It’s not too dissimilar from
the one I wore to Doki Doki last year,
although thanks to the cutsew it feels much more casual. While I’m not 100%
sure how the two necklines would work together, I kind of like it on the
flatlay. It’s a shame that you can’t see it on this photo, but this headbow is
a near exact colour match to the velvet bows on the JSK bodice!
Look 2: Mint Chocolate
| Magic Tea Party blouse | Bodyline shoes | Innocent World Lauretta OTKs | Angelic Pretty Diner Doll headbow | Mojiangxiaopu hair clip | Angelic Pretty Chess Emblem brooch | |
While I hate the taste of mint chocolate, the two colours
work super well together and I love mint x brown coords. In an ideal world this
would be paired with some mint wrist cuffs or bracelets, but I don’t own any.
If I were to wear this, I’d probably pair it with a cardigan to mask that. I
was also thinking of doing this with Diner Doll OTKs and brown shoes and
headbow, but I decided not to flaunt how few brown pieces I actually own and
tried to create an illusion that I have more variety.
Look 3: White Chocolate
We tend to think of white base as a little boring, but it
doesn’t have to be. White is a great canvas that lets you introduce other
colours. I quite like how this coord manages to introduce three heart0shaped
elements and a few really subtle touches of pink, it keeps it a little bit more
interesting. Also, fuck Baby for those long names, why would you use seven
words and forty-seven characters to name a bloody bolero?!
Look 4: Strawberry Chocolate
It all started with the pink blouse… the OTT part happened
almost on its own. And I tell you what, I am excited to wear this. No idea when
that would be, but I just feel the itch to put this on, it’s so much fun!
Granted, it would look tonnes better with brown tea parties, but I don’t own
any. I could potentially swap out the socks for some browns ones and then wear
the pink heels from Meta, though I feel it looks better with pink socks. What
do you think?
There was another look I put together with this dress,
however, I won’t feature it here. You will have to wait for December to see
that one. Keep an eye on the YouTube! ;)
Oh my goodness, I love all of these! Totally want to see you wear that last coord in particular ^__^ You're right about brown tea parties probably being a better shoe choice, but perhaps you could run with pink shoes if you have a brown and pink pair of socks? Given that the JSK doesn't feature heaps of dark brown I don't feel you need too much down the bottom to balance things out...
ReplyDeleteI don't know when or where, but it will happen eventually, it's firmly in the 'outfits stashed for later' bank. And you're right, this print isn't particularly brown heavy, so I probably could get away with pink shoes and brown socks (unfortunately I don't have brown x pink socks - well, I don, but they're Classic with not *that* much pink there).
