I've organized my post this year merely according to dress release year, which has been something of a doozy...lol. Dresses marked with a * were newly acquired in this last year! I've also chosen to focus only on main pieces this year (with the exception of the oldest thing in my closet, which I thought would be fun to show), as I had to leave a lot of my smaller things/shoes/etc. back in America. I've also reused photos from last year for the pieces I kept- sorry about that. With that said, let's begin!
The oldest thing I have in my wardrobe is actually a purse by Meta, from the year 2000....here it is!
(I bought it off auctions this year and it came to me in pretty much perfect condition, so I never suspected it was actually so old! The lolibrary link, for giggles: http://lolibrary.org/apparel/pochette-leather).
That said, let's move on to dresses!

2004
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Alice and Bambi Onepiece in Pink
2005
Alice and the Pirates: This is My Blood Balloon JSK in Ivory
(I love the asymmetry of this dress! The straps are different (one side is a thick strap while the other side is made up of two thin ones), and I like that the ruffle runs down just one side of the dress.)
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Alice Cookie Onepiece in Sax and Black
2006

Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Tartan Check Tiered Shirring JSK in Black and Pink

Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Sugar Bouquet Onepiece in Pink
Metamorphose: Gingham Cherry JSK in Pink

Bodyline: Cake Print Bustle JSK in Black
(Yes, really, this thing is from 2007! I didn't realize how old it was until I made my wardrobe post last year.)
Innocent World: Crown and Keys/Classical Angel Skirt in Black
(One of the few skirts I still own, but I do love the print.)
2008
Metamorphose: Candy House Shirring JSK in Black
(The children on this dress...look really creepy. If you don't believe me look at the closeup I took of them in last year's post.)

Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Alice Chess Babydoll JSK in Black and Pink (Re-release)

Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Angel Chiffon Babydoll JSK in Black
Angelic Pretty: Mermaid Symphony Onepiece in Black
(This was my holy grail dress for a long time, so I was really happy to get it! The dot tulle bustle back is to die for! I don't have much AP these days, but this dress has always stayed with me.)
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Strawberry Letters Shirring Bustle JSK in Black
(I do have the bow for this, but I forgot to put it back on for the photo!)
2009
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Garden Alice Print Babydoll JSK in Pink
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Love Poodle Appliqué JSK in Brown
(I love the scallops and the lovey dovey poodles on this! The dress is also incredibly flattering.)
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Secret Cake Factory Shirring JSK in Black
(I bought this from a girl who modified it by removing the white lace that was originally on the bodice. I think I like it better this way!)
Angelic Pretty: Memorial Cake Halterneck JSK in Black
(one of the few AP pieces I've held on to. I love the dot tulle lace, the pearls, and the intricacy of the print! The pockets are also an added bonus. : P)
Metamorphose: Candy Star Rabbit Shirring JSK in Black/Navy
Metamorphose: Romantic Train High Waist JSK in Pink
(I've literally held onto this for all of these years because of the ducks in the print. You know, just sitting and chilling in the train car.)
2010
Innocent World: Doll Chiffon OP
Innocent World: Antonia Jumperskirt in White
Handmade by a Friend of Mine: Toile Print Skirt

2013
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Chiffon Dot Lamé JSK in Black
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Floral Print Classical JSK in Sax
(This dress is a really dark color, and kind of hard to match. I'm thinking of selling it soon..)
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Angel Chiffon JSK in Pink (Re-Release)
(I love that you can pull the top layer of the skirt up into a bustle! Too cool.)
Triple Fortune: Shiro no Kingdom Onepiece

Metamorphose: Princess Wardrobe Babydoll JSK in Ivory
Enchantic Enchantilly (Chantilly): Merry-Go-Round Onepiece in Royal Blue

Angelic Pretty: Magical Etoile Sheer Collar JSK in Red (Re-Release)
Alice and the Pirates: Electric Circus in the Moonlit Night JSK II in Bordeaux
(Another favorite of mine! My university mascot was a bear, so the cute bears on this print remind me of the good ol' days.)

(I really love that this print has bees on it! The mushrooms are great too..lol.)
Alice and the Pirates: Bustle Babydoll JSK in Black
Metamorphose: Voyage in Memory JSK in Black
(sorry for the overexposure! I took this photo in the middle of a winter's night here in Europe, so the lighting situation was hopeless.)
Baby, the Stars Shine Bright: Recipe for an Endless Dream Shirly JSK in Ivory
(This last year I started watching the TV series Hannibal, so this dress now strikes me as a little ironic with how cute and light it is. Hahaha.)
2016
Metamorphose: Secret Eden Mini-Length Special Set JSK in Black
(One of my go-to dresses because it is both comfortable and elegant. My friend has the same cut and colorway, so we twin this dress frequently!)
Angelic Pretty: Holy Lantern Zipper JSK (Made-to-Order, Limited Re-Release)
