#rose dress up

Happy Lunar New Year!

I planned to wear something like this outfit last year, but that didn’t end up happening…so now is the time!

My brooch features AP’s Milk Cat, because tigers…cats…right?

I own pretty much no qi so I used this Baroque OP (the only qi thing I own) as a blouse, tucking up the skirt portion. There are a few layers going on here - I wore another underskirt over the OP but under the JSK to reduce lumps and also because the OP’s original ruffles fell a bit too long. And then I added a few Meta wa pieces that looked passable (I think the informal theme of this outfit is ‘tassels and cord’)!

I would like to own more mandarin collar and frog button (cord button) type items in the future, I think they’re quite cute.
