The following are the AatP pieces that I own in my collection.
I tend to feel myself more on the side of fluffy Sweet Lolita but I really like the darker qualities of Alice and the Pirates. A lot of them make perfect additions to any cute Steampunk outfit and I've worn a few of them to those types of events.
Gathered Chiffon JSK
This was the first AatP dress that I bought. I got it at the opening of the BtSSB store in San Fransisco. As I stood in line various people told me how it was their dream dress but I held onto it tightly. I had fallen in love with it too and love it just as much to this day. It is the fanciest lolita dress that I own and I won't part with it.
a/p Circus Print JSK
I loved the print on this one. The little monkeys and the elephants and Alice balancing on a ball. It's super fancy and I love to wear it.
On many occasions I have worn this dress on special occasions to steampunk events.
The only downside to this dress is that when I first was wearing it my arm would hurt like hell. I wondered why and then I found out what was wrong. The top is a bodice with plastic boning and one of the bones was protruding it's little super sharp tip out of one of the seams. It was not fun... I cut then filed down the bone so it was not so sharp-- cut myself on it a few times before I actually found it but happily did not get any blood on my dress.
AatP - Original Tartan Check Vest and Half-Pants
I bought these two matching pieces when they were on sale at the SF store. I tried them on when they first came out and was giddy it was ridiculous. I glowed, but at that time I got a different dress. I didn't have any "boy style" items and wanted to stick with dresses. I was glad that I did get the dress that time because it let me get it on sale.
