WendyB said...

Could you look any cuter? I don't think so!

Malayka said...

Wow you look adorable! What great photos. Total dollface.

Those photos are too cute! And wow, corsets sure do create incredibly tiny waists! I'd love to get a real one, but don't think I'd ever wear it as I can't even handle a semi-tight belt. :)

I was gonna say you look absolutely adorable, but every one above has already said that so I'll tell you qui vous êtes très jolie! Jolie comme votre petite chatte...

Love that you did a pink sailor doll rather than the traditional blue. Lovely corset! Photos came out quite nice

THanks you ladies.

Bucca : yes they are Minna Parikka

Girl Next Door VIntage : But a corset is much more comfortable than a cinching belt. Even though it's not perhaps comfy still...

Cherry Rosesea : yes thank you, I thought I'd make it more dreamy an doll-like that way:)

Where can one find sailor hats like that (in Helsinki or online)? Ahoy, looks good!

The Freelancer's FashionBlog said...

Anonynous : varusteleka (in the shop and online) or Salainen Agentti! They are the real stuff but you might find some versions at say Aprilli or Punanaamio too?
