Ghostintheforest's 2016 Wardrobe Post!

Sparkly pirate military boystyle, fancy hats, and OTT classic lolita ahead.

*Note: Photo heavy. If you have any issues with the pictures loading please open each cut individually*

So I'm going to start off with my hats because 1) hats are awesome and 2) one of the most unique things about my wardrobe is the sheer plethora of fancy hats. There's more headdresses in the accessory section too, but these are the most interesting ones.

Hats & Headdresses

Corgi Corgi: Police Cap ; Alice and the Pirates: Liar Silk Hat
This corgi corgi hat is hands down my favorite hat to wear. It goes well with casual and event coords. I get more compliments on this hat than most of my dresses. Some guy at a fast food joint even gave me my meal and then stuck his head out again to say "nice hat".

Alice and the Pirates: Crimson Jack Pirates' Hat


Corgi Corgi
At this point you're probably wondering why I have so many pirate and captain themed hats. It's probably because I spend all my free time hanging out on the seashore. I wear casual pirate ouji coords and goof off at the sandstone tidepools nearby. Also this is my second favorite hat.


Alice and the Pirates: World's Treasure Hunting Pirates' Hat


Alice and the Pirates: Rose's Prisoner Pirates' Hat


Alice and the Pirates: Fjord Pirate Hat ; BtSSB: Papillonnage en éclats Headbow with Veil


Alice and the Pirates: White Rabbit Lop Ear Silk Hat x 2
I really wish this hat came in white. I would buy a compltely necessary third one if it did.

Metamorphose: Dim Light Bonnet ; Handmade by me


TeaLoveCrochet
This was somewhat custom made. I had the filling made a more ivory color and the text added to match my swimmer bag. Also that bow was jacked off my AP dress. I left it because it looks nice here.

I made this for a super summer fourth of july fireworks outing. It turned out pretty cute.

I don't wear these plain. I usually tie a ribbon around them in some complimentary color and add roses.

Lolita Wardrobe

~Dresses~

Innocent World: Fantasy Night Sky
I waited so long for this dress that I had accumulated all of these matching accessories before it even arrived.


Alice and the Pirates: Masquerade Theater
First dream dress. I don't wear it often, but I still love it.


Angelic Pretty: Daydream Carnival
This is one of my favorite coords to date. I think I love everything in this picture. Especially the lighting.


Angelic Pretty: Daydream Carnival
I think I wore this for Easter one year.


BtSSB: Papillonnage en éclats
Everytime Baby comes out with a new OTT classic JSK I buy it and then style it after their OTT OPs. This was one such attempt.


Angelic Pretty: Powder Rose
I always wanted the yellow version of this JSK until I took this picture. After that, I was happy with the white.


Baby the Stars Shine Bright: Parfait
This isn't really my style, but I wear it to the beach casually whenever I don't feel like wearing pirate boystyle.
.

Metamorphose: Dim Light
I probably looked for this dress for 3+ years before finding it in this exact cut and colorway.


Metamorphose: Twinkle Journey


Metamorphose: Twinkle Journey
By now you can probably tell I'm a little obsessed with unicorn and pegasi border prints.

These are my favorite lolita blouses. I love anything chiffon, but these are so perfect for OTT classic, and they're comfy!

That blouse on the left is actually part of my boystyle collection. Haha oops. Looks better here though.

And now the moment you've all been waiting for (I'm sure)!

Boystyle Wardrobe

~Capes & Mantles~

Alice and the Pirates: Jack Marie
This is the fanciest most Versailles style cape I have ever seen. So I bought it.


Alice and the Pirates: Milky Rail Train
Cute little velvety cape. I totally forgot to include the bag in this haul pic though. Only missing the hat from the set (as if I need more of those).


Atelier Boz
Bought this off mbok. Almost gave it to a friend, didn't, kept it. No regrets.

~Coats and Jackets~


Alice and the Pirates: Captain Hollow
My ultimate dream jacket is this same jacket in white x silver. Some day I will find it, but this black one is pretty nice too. If all of my coats were dying in a fire I would save this one, anddd probably the one right under this too.


Alice and the Pirates: Destinee de la Rose
Funny story, when we bought these coats, the buttons fell off basically everyone's coat. At random, and they're not even functional. One time I thought I lost two buttons at the beach, looked all day, then followed my trail of selfies only to discover they fell off in my bedroom before I left the house.

I wasn't trying to buy a fake rolando when I got this. I actually didn't know what it was at the time. Now that I have real rolandos I use this fake one for all tasks that might dirty or snag them.

That dragon slayer vest is the coolest, seriously.

Alice and the Pirates: Rothbart ; Alice and the Pirates: Granny Smith
I still haven't worn Rothbart, but who has anything in that shade of green?! Just sitting here waiting for some kind soul to make a maching item.


Alice and the Pirates: Azure ; Alice and the Pirates: Thaddius


Alice and the Pirates: Thaddius
I will probably continue buying this in every available colorway as long as they keep putting out more of them. It's so comfy and perfect. I can't help it.

Alice and the Pirates: Fjord
This is the opposite of Thaddeus. You know how I said it was comfy and perfect? Yeah this is the opoosite.

That blouse on the right is actually navy. Not sure why it looks purple here.

At first I was painstakingly collecting the older brown set, but then they re-released it so I jumped ship and bought the whole navy set. Will I ever complete the brown set?! Who knows


Vintage
And by vintage I mean I found this in my mother's closet


Alice and the Pirates ; Putumayo

Super casual punk boystyle tops. I wear the one on the right all the time. Being button-free is a strange luxury I don't normally have.

Dual Wardrobe Accessories
I tend to mix and match my accessories with both wardrobes, so I didn't bother categorizing them,
although you may be able to pick out a few things that are exclusive to one or the other

I actually have two of those usakumya pillows now.

For some reason everyone always thinks the scotty dog is a real dog. I was dragging it behind me one day in Vegas and some man shouted "You're choking your dog!!" Good times.

Both masks are handmade by me. The left I made for Merry Making in the Ghost Town,
and the right one I made for Twinkle Journey

This is where I store my accessories. I have several bookshelves in my room, so I keep
them in color-coded book boxes.

The largest stone on this necklace usually reflects blue in daylight, so it always reminds me of the necklace from Titanic.

I was really surprised AatP made an actual sterling silver armor ring. Bought it second hand, but I wish they would release more of them.
