Pretty Kitty Fashion - made in UK dresses


Hi kitties, today I'd like to review some new vintage inspired dresses for you. A few times ago, I've been contacted by Pretty Kitty Fashion. Pretty Kitty Fashion is a vintage inspired company based in the U.K. They are retailers for various brands, as collectif clothing or even banned, and they also sale their own dresses made in the U.K!

I'm very excited, because they proposed me to try out some of their dresses to take pictures and to give you my honest opinion about their garments. Of course I said a big YES! Scroll down to discover some of their beautiful dresses and to find a 10% additional discount!!!


❤️ Here are the two beautiful dresses I've selected ❤️



The shipping was quite fast, as it took about a week to arrive in France. The dresses were nicely wrap is a beautiful pink paper with a leaflet that features some of their more popular styles.


To select the dresses I've followed their size chart and went for a size 12 for both dresses. I'm a 96-73-103 fyi (I definitely need to cut out cheese and sugar from my diet, but I fail every single time I try! If you have tricks to help me, comment below). For choosing the size and because I like to feel comfortable in the bust area, I selected the clothes that fit my bust measurements, even if I need to rework my dresses at the waist most of the times. 

Let's move to the worn pictures!

----

The fit of the navy dress is perfect! Because it's a bit pleated at waist it's very forgivable and I didn't have had to modify the waist. The fabric is thick and even thought it's not lined it doesn't mark the underwear lines. I feel very glamorous wearing this dress and it's already one of my "go to" dress when I have to choose what to wear for going to the office.  



Also, it makes the perfect base for a Genie disneybound! I wore this dress at Disneyland Paris and the Genie recognized me, we even danced together for few minutes! It was sooooo cool, I felt very special!


----

The red dress is a faux wrap style with beautiful sleeves, stunning, perfect for summer. As the blue one, it's not lined. The fabric feels a bit thinner but heavier at the same time (even in french, I don't know how to explain it correctly)! It's very comfortable and I like how the fabric falls when worn, but at the same time it shows a bit more the underwear lines.

For this dress, I had to rework the waist as it's very very elastic! I think I should have chosen the size 10! Still, it's one of my favorite dress now, and I'll definitely wear it for valentine's day!


I hope you enjoyed this review! If you'd like to treat yourself, Pretty Kitty Fashion sent me a promo code just for you! With the code POM10 you can save 10% on your basket! Isn't it amazing?  

Here are some other dresses I love!

Miss Candyfloss - Gigi Bo Jumpsuit review


I know there are already tons of review of this glorious jumpsuit all around the internet. But, maybe you don't know about this brand or this jumpsuit. Or maybe you're here because you want to read another review, just to find an excuse to buy it, because -spoiler alert- this jumpsuit is fantastic and you need it in your life!

Well, you pretty much know my opinion about it by reading those lines... But let's talk about it anyway, starting with the brand.

Miss Candyfloss is "a retro brand inspired by the styles of 1940´s and 1950´s, with a twist of the 21st century’s sexy women [...] manufactured within Europe under fair trade conditions. [...] The clothes aren’t mass produced in large factory lines, so things like working conditions, salaries and good item quality can be kept a closer watch upon."





I know, it's pretty rare and impressive to read this nowadays. I have the chance to own several items from this brand and I can confirm that the quality is amazing.

The Gigi Bo jumpsuit is one of their best sellers. As said by Top Vintage (who regularly sell this jumpsuit) :

"Cassy, elegant, playful but also very sexy! The fitted top is nicely cut into a v-neckline and features a pleated bust part which is both suitable for a fuller and a smaller cup. The flattering 3/4 sleeves feature playful wrap overs and the pleated legs are true eye-catchers; typical forties"

What do I think about it? Well, pretty much the same.


You have to know that one of my biggest fears when I buy clothes, is that it would make my breast appear bigger than reality. I was afraid of that because of the pleats, but to be honest, it doesn't enhance or minimize the breast, it just compliments it - which I really appreciate. The fabric hugs your waist elegantly and the legs are very comfortable. By the way, you have to know that the legs are veeeery long, they may have to be shortened depending on if you want to wear the jumpsuit with or without heels!

Do I see a negative point? Yes, I do. Now I own two of them, I need them in every single colorway!!!

I hope I successfully convinced you. See you soon for a new entry ♥

Q-pot Dress


Q-pot is 15 years old. Berry happy anniversary Q-pot (berry happy, very happy... you got it?! ^w^)! To celebrate it, the famous Japanese brand just launched a new collection named “Q-pot Dress”.

Q-pot a 15 ans. Fraise heureux anniversaire Q-pot (fraise heureux, très heureux... c'est bon, vous l'avez ? ^w^) ! Et pour célébrer tout ça, la célèbre marque japonaise vient tout juste de sortir une nouvelle collection nommée “Q-pot Dress”.


It’s the collection that all Q-pot fans have been waiting for long, an apparel line!!!! And what a line! For the first release, all the items have been designed around Q-pot favorite’s berry, the cute and tasty ichigo (strawberry). Dresses, cardigans, shirt and t-shirts come in various cuts for all tastes.

C'est la collection que tous les fans de Q-pot attendaient depuis longtemps, une ligne de vêtements !!! Et quelle ligne ! Pour cette première collection, tous les articles ont été construits autour de la baie préférée de Q-pot, la belle et délicieuse ichigo (fraise). Elle comprend des robes, cardigans, chemises et t-shirts dans de nombreuses coupes et pour tous les goûts.


Of course, I love the collection! The sleeveless dress is to die for. Unfortunately the bust measurements are too small for me (84cm when I’d need 92cm…).

Bien évidemment, j'adore cette collection ! La robe sans manches est adorable. Mais malheureusement, les mesures de buste sont trop petites pour moi (84 cm, et il me faudrait 92 cm...)


The other item that makes my heart miss a beat is the beautiful tunic / t-shirt. I find this one perfect for spring and summer! It’s not a regular t-shirt, I mean, look at it!!! Isn’t it amazing?!

L'autre article qui fait battre mon cœur c'est cette sublime tunique / t-shirt. Je la trouve parfaite pour le printemps et pour l'été ! C'est n'est pas un simple t-shirt, je veux dire, il n'y a qu'à le regarder ! Est-ce qu'il n'est pas merveilleux ?!



Pre-orders close on March the 10th for a delivery estimated around middle June. Hurry up if you want to be sure to grab your favorite item before it’s not available anymore!

Les précommandes se terminent le 10 Mars avec une livraison estimée pour mi-juin. Dépêchez-vous si vous voulez être certains d'avoir votre article préféré avant que celui-ci ne soit plus disponible !

Lolita Blog Carnival - Frillies You Find Inspirational


I'm back!!! Thank you very much for all the messages I've received during the days I was away from the social media. Today's entry is done for the Lolita Blog Carnival weekly theme. The one of this week is: "Frillies you find inspirational". What a fantastic idea! I don't say enough to the persons that I admire or that I love how much I love them, so here we go.

Je suis de retour !!! Merci beaucoup pour tous les messages que vous m’avez envoyés pendant les jours où j'étais loin des réseaux sociaux. L’article d'aujourd'hui est réalisé pour le thème hebdomadaire du Lolita Blog Carnival. Et le thème de cette semaine est : "Les lolitas qui vous inspirent". Quelle idée géniale ! Je ne dis pas assez aux personnes que j'admire ou que j'aime combien je les aime, alors c'est parti !


Yumi EG

Yumi is one of my fellow JLA Kawaii ambassadors. Besides that, she's one of my precious friends and has a fantastic sense of style. I mean, look at her, she's just stunning! Her wardrobe is just perfect (and for having visited her dressing room, I can tell you that's a room of dreams!). Do not let yourself abused by her dark clothes; she's one of the sweetest and nicest girls in the world ♥

Yumi est l'une de mes co-ambassadrices kawaii pour la JLA. Elle est également l’une de mes amies les plus précieuses et a de très bons goûts en matière de mode. Non mais, sans déconner, regardez-la, elle est tout simplement sublime ! Sa garde-robe est parfaite (et pour avoir visité son dressing, je peux vous dire que c'est une pièce de rêves !). Ne vous laissez pas abuser par ses vêtements sombres ; c’est une des personnes les plus douces et les plus gentilles que je connaisse ♥


Marie Yulia

Yulia is a French lolita. Her sense of style is really on point. I admire her for her commitment to Japanese fashion. Do you know that she's about to open her own shop devoted to this fashion? Its name is "Kawaii Style" (https://www.facebook.com/KawaiiStyleFrance/) and it will resale many brands as WEGO, Ank Rouge or Swankiss! Her fight for spreading Japanese fashion and achieving her dream is very inspirational to me! ♥

Yulia est une lolita française. Son sens du style est vraiment au top. Je l'admire pour son engagement dans la mode japonaise. Savez-vous qu'elle est sur le point d'ouvrir sa propre boutique consacrée à cette mode ? Son nom sera "Kawaii Style" (https://www.facebook.com/KawaiiStyleFrance/) et elle revendra de nombreuses marques telles que WEGO, Ank Rouge ou encore Swankiss ! Son combat pour partager sa passion de la mode et pour la réalisation de son rêve est pour moi une très grande source d'inspiration ! ♥


Saltje


Another friend of mine, who I like to call “my wife”. Saltje is an art teacher, her paints are really stunning and I also admire her seamstress talents. Her handmade dresses are magical. She's also a real sweetie that is always here when I need to talk to someone. Love you ♥

Un autre de mes amies, que j'aime appeler «ma femme». Saltje est une enseignante en arts, ses peintures sont vraiment sublimes et j'admire ses talents de couturière. Ses robes faites main sont magiques. C'est aussi un amour de fille qui est toujours là quand j'ai besoin de parler à quelqu'un. Je t'adore ♥


Rosalynn


Yeap yeap yeap, I also love her with all my heart. Besides being a stunning lolita, Rosalynn is a fantastic youtuber! I envy her montage competencies, and I wish someday I'll have as much talent as her. I also would like to share with you the picture of the outfit she wore for the last Angelic Pretty tea party in Paris. She totally deserved the best dresser prize she won! ♥

Ouep ouep ouep, elle aussi je l'adore de tout mon petit cœur. En plus d'être une superbe lolita, Rosalynn est un youtubeuse géniale ! J'envie ses compétences en montages vidéos, et j’espère avoir autant de talent qu’elle un de ces jours. Je voulais également partager avec vous une photo de la tenue qu'elle portait pour la dernière tea party Angelic Pretty de Paris. Elle mérite totalement le prix de meilleure coordination qu'elle a gagné! ♥


Lea (queran_ruffles)


I met Lea in Tokyo back in 2015. That's kind of funny, because she's from Austria and I'm from France. When I met her I was already following her on the social media for her very wearable sense of style. Her coordinates are always neat and she's the perfect casual lolita to me. If you are looking for daily coords inspirations you definitely should follow her on IG! ♥

J'ai rencontré Lea à Tokyo en 2015. Je trouve que c'est assez drôle quand on pense qu'elle vient d'Autriche et que je vis en France. Quand je l'ai rencontrée, je la suivais déjà sur les réseaux sociaux pour son style très "facile à porter". Ses coordinations sont toujours soignées et elle est pour moi l’incarnation du casual lolita. Si vous êtes à la recherche d'inspirations quotidiennes pour vos tenues lolis, vous devriez suivre son IG ! ♥


Jo  (Octavekitten)


Just, simply, I would like to be cool as her when I grow old. She's amazing, she's a wonderful strong and inspirational woman. ♥

Juste, très simplement, j'aimerais devenir aussi cool qu'elle quand je serai grande. Elle est incroyable, c'est une femme très forte qui m'inspire beaucoup. ♥


And all the lolitas in the world ♥


I decided to choose only 6 lolitas because if I hadn't, the list would have been way too long! All the lolitas are inspirational in their very own ways, for their passions, their commitment to the fashion, their experimentations with fashion (I think about Hello Batty who is amazing for that), for their projects, for just being themselves. ♥
Maybe I will write more about them in the future. Would you like me to do more entries like this one?

J'ai décidé de ne choisir que 6 lolitas, dans le cas contraire la liste aurait été bien trop longue ! Toutes les lolitas sont inspirantes à leurs façons, par leurs passions, leur dévouement à la mode, leurs expérimentations avec la mode (je pense à Hello Batty qui est géniale pour ça), leurs projets, juste par le fait d'être elles-mêmes. ♥
Peut-être que j'écrirai un peu plus sur elles dans le futur. Est-ce que d'autres articles de ce genre vous plairaient ?


I hope you like this week topic. See you soon for a new one!
