Friday we went for sushi and Alice in Wonderland with the bro and sis-in-law. The movie itself was lovely--the visuals were gorgeous, especially the White Queen's court (kind of a washed-out Marie Antoinette vibe!) and the tea party, which was alike an abandoned 1920s party with tired guests and faint Victrola music in the background. The Cheshire Cat was especially creepy and perfect. He's always been my favorite. I have such an emotional attachment to the story; I wrote one of my favorite ever (giant!) papers for my Madness in Literature class about Wonderland being a metaphor for adolescence, and when I was a kid I wore out my VHS tape of the Disney version.
And of course I love Tim Burton forever and ever and was very excited to see his interpretation. The movie felt a bit light overall and I didn't love it overwhelmingly, but it was fun and pretty and Alice was strong. (Although the Mad Hatter does a dance at the end that made me want to crawl under my seat from embarrassment.)
Urban Outfitters dress
Forever 21 cardigan
Seychelles heels
Sock Dreams tights
Bunny ring from Modcloth
Mad Hatter necklace from Paraphernalia
I'm also wearing OPI's Mad as a Hatter nail polish but of course I'm terrible at photographing it. I think it's my absolute favorite nail polish to ever exist in the world. It reminds me of a sparkly (un)birthday cake!
I agree, themed outfits are so much fun!! I love your rabbit ring. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the dress and the white tights. So cute! Nice interpretation.
ReplyDeleteMega cute dress! I love your ring.
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I love wearing themed outfits to films as well :D
ReplyDeleteI feel so lonesome in my scepticism towards Alice though. On one hand I think I'd love the story, but on the other I really can't stand cgi. Am I alone and old and miserable in this sentiment? D: Maybe I just need to grow on it though! (hopefully)
I love your outfit. You look so cute.
ReplyDeleteWe saw the movie on Friday night and I felt the same way. It was a great film to see on the big screen and was beautiful visually, but you're right, it did feel light. Lacking in a little muchness maybe:)
very alice, amazing ring
ReplyDeleteBunny ring!! So sweet. This whole outfit overall is pretty sweet, actually.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to see the movie but I'm sure I will sooner or later. I was quite put off by Tim Burton's interpretation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory so I'm curious to see how Alice in Wonderland is.
Love the ring, adorable outfit!xxx

ReplyDeleteSuch a perfect outfit for watching Alice - whimsical, cute and playful to boot. I love your rabbit ring!
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your blog and I adore it. :)
Such a lovely dress ;)
ReplyDeleteDamn you're pretty, seriously!! And I love the outfit, and the ring obviously!
ReplyDeleteI went to see Alice just a couple of days ago, didn't expect much but I was still a bit disappointed.. I don't know what's happened to Tim Burton, where's all the anarchy?? All the cliche lines and and the totally unsurprising Disney plot was all just a big meh really. :(
