BlackMilk Cinderella dress!

"So this is the miracle that I've been dreaming of
So this is love"

Yes. I'm in love with this dress. Like I wrote in my last post, I got a package from BlackMilk containing two lovely dresses; Beauty and the Beast dress and this "Cinderella Play Dress"

I cannot pick a favorite, but I really like that just seeing this dress makes you remember the scene in Cinderella movie, when she was at the ball, and when I wear it, I feel like going at the ball too :)

It's like modern ball gown, but still light and fit for a relaxed summer day.

The look of this dress also depends on how you accessorize it. With an up do, high heels and a handbag (silver ones would look great with this!) this would really be a perfect party dress.

This look I have in the pictures is more of an everyday look. I'm not wearing any jewellery, and I chose ballerinas instead of high heels. And of course, the look is inspired by Cinderella :)

These ballerinas are quite similar with the ones Cinderella wears in her casual look. The color is different though, Cinderella's shoes are black, but I felt that this light blue color looked good with the dress.

I kind of got carried away with the blue... This nail polish is from the Kure Bazaar.

 

I wanted to keep this look really natural, so my hair is just straight and loose. In the eye makeup I used silver and grey colored eye shadows applied in classic 50's style. Eyebrows are also shaped in 50's style, since Cinderella movie was released in 1950, and there is same elements in her makeup too. I chose orange lipstick because it looks great with blue, and also Cinderellas lips are the same color in the movie. 

All the makeup products I used are from Couleur Caramel. I really like their makeup;  it's all natural and long lasting, and has a lot of pigment and different colors.

And now I just need to keep on believing, that dreams of warm summer days will come true. It has been quite cold lately, these days when we took pictures of the BlackMilk dresses have almost been the only warm ones. But perhaps someday... the dreams that I wish will come true.

At least one of my wishes is coming true; the new Cinderella movie is coming to DVD at the end of this month! I saw it three times in theater, and I can't wait to have it! :)

Have Courage And Be Kind
