Newest mannequin display for my room!

Today, I was cleaning up my room and decided to dress my mannequin in something that suited my room a little more. (Previously, she was dressed in a hideous red skirt that was only on it because I needed to take pics of things to sell ^^;)

Here is the result!


Since my room is decorated in green and white, this Infanta JSK was the first thing to pop into my mind.

When I first saw this JSK, I fell in love with it immediately and just had to place an order. Unfortunately, when it arrived, I was quite disappointed - the fabric is a little too much like upholstery fabric for my liking, and the lace is cheap scratchy raschel lace, so it's not very comfortable to wear. On the other hand, it makes for a great display piece!

Just the dress on the mannequin felt a little plain, so I plonked on a hat to make it look a little more summery. It still looked too plain, so I took out my most casual pearl necklace, which just happened to match the dress's colour scheme perfectly! Such a happy coincidence :)

I'm really happy that I have such a cute display for my room now! Even happier that I also managed to find a use for this dress :)

Gorgeous! I love love the idea of keeping an outfit on display! Especially when it matches your room.

Thanks! :) It's a pretty easy way to keep some lolita in an otherwise not-lolita life, and it's really attractive to boot! My mum was really surprised when she saw it, and it was actually the first time I saw her give genuine approval for anything lolita ^^
