Clicky-links of coveting

[cupcake_goth]

Not that I'm going to purchase any of these, but goodness, they're pretty. I blame charmingmonstrs for linking to them.

The main EGL brand I covet stuff from is the Alice and the Pirates line from Baby The Stars Shine Bright. (Yes, I have a huge weakness for pirate lolita, which probably can be traced directly back to my crush on Adam Ant.) Which is why mini tricorn hats with large bows (clicky-link!) and Victorian pirate button boots (another clicky-link!) make me go "Oooooh, wanty!"

(I do SO need more mini tricorns and top hats. I DO. Do not argue with me.)

Dear Sandy Claws, I have been very very good this year. Please bring me lots of cute hats. Which, you must admit, are a much more reasonable request than my annual pleas for an arc welder.

Love, Cupcake Goth.

I think lolita stuff is cute... on people other than myself. That being said, I want this (http://www.babyssb.co.jp/shopping/pirates/103P322.html), or a reasonable facsimile. I can't do EGL, but I can totally buckle some swash! I really like the asymetrical and drapey stuff in the collection.

I don't think people realize this about me, but if I actually had a place to wear them, I'd own a *lot* more fancy clothes.

See, one of the things I adore about pirate lolita is that the majority of it doesn't look like the wearer was attacked by random yards of lace. I want sleek, fitted jackets with my ruffles!

I've seen you get all fancied-up, and it makes me clap my hands with glee every time.
