Yes you saw this right. There is RED in this outfit. Don’t start freaking out or leave this page, I promise a good explanation for this. LOL.

I’ve had this jacket for the longest time but never really got round to wearing it. A signature piece from Vivienne Westwood, this heart lapel jacket has got to be one of the most recognizable jackets around. I got it from Yahoo Japan auctions but you’d need to have a Japanese Yahoo account in order to bid there. Anyway, there was this jacket on auctions and I -knew- I had to get it.

I’m not sure if anyone is as excited as us about the new Disney’s Alice in Wonderland. I absolutely love the story and I decided I should play dress up with the movie theme in mind.

The jacket goes perfectly with the image of Queen of Hearts for pretty obvious reasons.

I think my bedsheets are absolutely darling. I got them from Japan a long time ago. I think Japanese have a very huge liking for everything Disney~

Outfit Breakdown:

  • Jacket: Vivienne Westwood
  • Tank top: m)phosis
  • Skirt: m)phosis
  • Tights: Henry Holland for Pretty Polly
  • Shoes: Aldo

Which character in Alice in Wonderland would you dress up as ?

    Yes yes, I have to admit I was pretty obsessed with the manga which also explains partly why I bought this jacket. :P
