I bought this on a whim mainly due to the contrast of the gorgeous blue colors and the opalescent peal detailing catching my eye. I thought for sure I could wear it to work or to nice events as a way to slowly ease the Lolita style into my daily life. This has sadly failed and I have not worn it even once. There are a few loose threads here and there and an almost stupid number of bows (which really do change how the dress looks depending on where you place them). This dress does have shirring which makes it both comfy and beautiful so I’d love for it to go to someone who will appreciate it and wear it. *One of the threads that holds the belt in place has become unattached on one end (see pics) - it came to me in this condition.
