Inspiration Board: Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland


When it comes to the Tim Burton remake of the classic Lewis Carroll book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland I feel a bit late to the party, but I finally had the chance to watch it with a friend of mine on our little girls-night-in a while back, and I just fell in love! I loved Mr. Burton's take on the classic story; he gave it the "Tim Burton treatment" making it creepier, more mysterious, and just a bit more grown up. 

On a more side note, some of the editorial pictures you see here are actually from a gorgeous iconic Grace Coddington Vogue spread from several years back; and if you haven't ever seen it, definitely give it a look! I found the whole spread here! Fashion really loves Alice in Wonderland...

For the look: lots of whimsical florals, but mixed with darker, more edgy items. Lots of ornate details, vintage accessories, and pops of pastels!
Key stores: Anthropologie, Modcloth, Etsy, Topshop

  2. I love Alice in Wonderland, there has been far too many parties I have gone as her, even though I am not a blondie... However, I did go as the white queen from the Tim Burton version once, that is what started my love of black lipstick and big eyebrows! Tim has much to answer to!
    I really like your collage! I heart that black OTT dress with the gold embroidery! It is lovely!
