Coming Soon From AP: Musee du Chocolate
I know, I know, I’ve been really quiet lately. I’ve been pretty run down. Turns out, I had an infection in my tear duct (similar to a sinus infection), and it caused my tear duct to be blocked… But I ran around to Frill and a bunch of other things anyways and wore myself totally out. Personal issues aside…
Kimura posted two sneak peak photos to her blog about a new Angelic Pretty print! We’ve run out of thing from the summer catalog already, and this has some nice dark chocolate tones to it, so I think we are likely moving int their fall season. She’s done a good job of covering everything, but it’s certainly brown-based, and I can see some gold trim sticking out. The wardrobe team coordinated it with a brown cake and what looks like a brown bear with a gold crown on her necklace. The headdress seems pretty biscuit-y to me. The make up is very sweet and very cute. I’m guessing either a chocolate dessert theme, or a bear theme (possibly both). AP hasn’t done a good brown bear themed print, unless you count Honey Cake, so it’s long over due and the styling would fit, I think.
Time to go stalk the AP blogs and see what info comes out! I’ll update as I find out more.
