Innocent World Inspiration

I have always liked the lolita brand "Innocent World". Unlike Angelic Pretty, it goes for a more subdued and "classical" style (though it does have some sweeter prints!). While browsing though the IW website yesterday (and bemoaning the fact that they have sales and I can´t buy the JSKs), I found several pieces that I consider quite "inspiring". They are pieces that are still lolita, but perfectly fit into a more "cute mature" style, which is what I´ve been favoring for the past half-year or so.

 This is the "Lilyanne" JSK.

It´s elegant. The top is reminiscent of a suit, in my opinion, which makes it more "serious", something which is also added to considering that it´s a solid-color dress, with no prints whatsoever.
Bonus: its look changes when you completely close its buttons--instead of a "serious" it goes more into "military" look. I love it.Versatile.



This is the "Dot print halter neck JSK".

It reminds me a bit of the "rockabilly" style (is it the halter neck or the polkadots? Perhaps the the skirt´s line), but the colors that IW give it a touch of "elegance" more than "wild" that (at least I) associate with the rockabilly style. The nicest color is chocolate, followed by navy. You have the possibility of removing the neck ribbon and the belt--the end result is somewhat plain, but it does definitely open up possibilities for accesorizing and turning it sweeter (or darker).


This is the "Rose Stained Glass" skirt.

An oh-so-shameless want. I lust after this skirt--the print detail is so amazing, down to the graded dyeing in the print so as to resemple a real piece of stained glass artwork. It is so pretty (in all colorways) that I don´t care weather I could use it or combine it in more than one outfit--I just know that I´d enjoy wearing this skirt over and over.



So, what´s your opinion on these new JSK and skirts that IW has come up with for this autumn-winter season? Like? Dislike? Does IW´s classic style do anything for you, or are you more into AP´s sweet or AatP´s darker prints?
