The Expected "Alice" Post

That's right, Princess Freya saw Alice In Wonderland.

And was VERY disappointed.

I'm not going to go into great detail as to why I was disappointed, because it would make this post very long. So I'll just touch on some of the things that made it a bad experience for me.

• When Alice says "Curiouser and curiouser...", for some reason, I cringed. Almost as if it was painful to hear the quote from the book being placed in what I knew would be a bad adaptation of said book.
• There weren't any riddles! It was very straightforward. As Alice rightly pointed out in the movie, she had been told to do everything and that sort of carried on throughout the movie, even after she stated that.
• The Mad Hatter was quite as mad as I expected. And seemed to almost have fallen in love with Alice at the end. NO
• And what was with the Hatter's accent change every 10 seconds? 
• The place Alice visited in this movie was referred to as "Underland"... why wasn't the movie called "Alice In Underland"? (Perhaps that would have killed all of the confusion and it would have stood out as it's own original story, like it pretty much was anyway.)
• The dog. What the heck was he there for? (The same could be said for the Red Queen's "right hand man" (put in quotes because of the irony that he always kissed her right hand) why was he there?)
• THE FROG DID NOT STEAL THE TARTS.

End of discussion. I will now prepare to get eaten by rabid Alice fans who actually liked the movie.

Have a nice week!

As Promised!

Happy Weekend Princes and Princesses!

I've been giving this giveaway thing a lot of thought and am coming up with some great prize ideas. Of course, they will only be small bits, mostly handmade, but cute bits!
I'll post up more on that in a few weeks. Please, look forward to it!

I quickly wanted to share some really great stuff available at Claire's Accessories at the moment. As everyone knows, the new Alice in Wonderland movie is out soon and designers are attacking it from all corners with delightful tea sets, shoes, necklaces and other cute pieces
Claire's has released their take on the movie with their "Alice In Fashionland" line. Cheesy name, but some really cute stuff!

And that's not all (but I can't find pictures of the rest!)
There are so many cute bits to pick up, including some non-Alice themed stuff like hair clips with bows, ponies and crowns on them!
I have to say, I love Claire's lots for Lolita accessories. They aren't cheap but the stuff you get in the there is totally adorable!

Gah, I can't think of anything else to write now. Lots of lolita babble :3
I've been losing a bit of weight recently. Stopped drinking lots of fizzy drinks (I was a Cola addict for a while) and got some yummy squash drinks (You know, the ones you dilute with water?) and they are really helping! I've also taken to playing on my dance mat a lot. I love it! It's a great way to exercise. I want to get one of those hard plastic ones though. I hate it when my soft mat slips around underneath me, causing me to miss the steps. >_<
Don't forget to comment your feedback on what you like to hear the most on my blog. I'd really like to know what you think!

Stay poofy my friends!

Blah Blah Blah

You know, I don't even know why I am writing. I just felt like it I guess.

I'm playing a long game of 60 Minute Makeover with my bedroom. Stage 1 is complete, I've moved out the bunk bed and moved in the single bed. I also cleared my desk of all the junk that was on it and started setting it out as a dressing table. (I need a mirror orz)

I've also set aside 2 drawers [so far] to be my "Lolita Drawers". These will hold my shoes, accessories, handbags, off-season skirts and bloomers (when I make some). All of my in-season stuff is hung up in my wardrobe ready to be worn.

Mikey now has his own shelf for the clothes he leaves at mine when he stays over. He only has shirts and PJ bottoms on it at the moment. But it is a shelf and it is Mikey's. Love you Mikey ! x

Next up is to get the fabric for my princess canopy, the fabric for the wall decorations and get a mirror.

Oh mi gosh, I finally read Alice In Wonderland! In it's original context as well. It's a brilliant book, though it is very bizarre. I'd give it an overall score of 4 out of 5. -1 point for the beginning, it started rather slowly in my opinion.

I also watched the TV movie "Alice in Wonderland" starring Tina Majorino and Whoopi Goldberg. It was fantastic but I didn't like the fact that towards the end it started to run into the story of Through The Looking Glass. 3 out of 5 for that one.

Right, ramble over I think. Time for bed! Night all!

Love Love,
