Continue to decorate my lolita coat. I thought, that it would be nice to go futher with baroque theme, so I’ve found a really awesome shop in St.P where good quality lace and other handmade supplies are sold. I got three types of golden appliques.
So, on the pictures you can see the result.
The coat is from of of taobao shops (but not chinese lolita brand shop, just some kind of shop that makes copies of MM and VM). I was lucky that it was a nice quality coat. And I’m also lucky that I usually buy plain things, so that accessories and decoration can make them look totally renewed and unique in a way.
I luv my coat now more than ever!Absolutely lovely!
