The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Finally I read The Wonderful Wizard of Oz after so many years.

I always preferred Alice than Dorothy.

I just can not understand her.

She lived in grey prairie and dull house

and had nothing interesting to do. 

Her uncle and aunt were just like their surrounding.

They never laughed.

Why was she so persistent to come back there

if she could stay in 

magic Oz's land?

It was always a big question for me...

  Alice followed white rabbit 

from her own will

and Dorothy was just taken by cyclone:/

Even so I have found in the book

two specially interesting plots.

First is all story about Oz. 

He was able to give Scarecrow,

Tin Woodman and Cowardly Lion

what they wanted even if he was not

a real wizard at all.

I know it is not an original plot, 

but this sentence really appealed to me:

 How can I help being a humbug, he said, when all these people make me do

things that everybody knows can't be done?

They all knew that Oz does not have any magical power

but still they wanted to be deceived. 

Sometimes truth is not important at all.

We need sweet lies in which we believe

what in fact make 

them somehow a truth. 

Stupid example.

I see beautiful absolutely cool jrocker on a stage.

Somehow inside I know 

he is not so pretty in real

and all this coolness is just a game.

But who at all cares?

Emerald city without glasses

is just a normal boring city.

But when you put on them

everything changes and this is the only

thing that matters to us.

The next think that I have found very interesting 

was The Dainty China country.

I have to admit that I have forgotten that

such chapter was there at all. 

This country is all made from porcelain.

Beautiful and very delicate.

One careless move and

everything can be broken.

Dorothy has met pretty china princess 

and would like to take her to Kansas.

This is what princess answered:

That would make me very unhappy, answered the china

Princess. You see, here in our country we live

contentedly, and can talk and move around as we please.

But whenever any of us are taken away our joints at once

stiffen, and we can only stand straight and look pretty. Of

course that is all that is expected of us when we are on

mantels and cabinets and drawing-room tables, but our

lives are much pleasanter here in our own country.

I have found this plot really cute 

and it made me think about Seimu as well^^

I think that Dainty China Country would 

be a perfect motif for a dress.

Something similar to these postcard

Baby made once Wizard Oz inspired dress

but I do not like it all.

This print is too small and look strange.

I hope they will make another dress

in a style similar to Cinderella jewelry 

and Scent of Rapunzel.

I have also though about an outfit

inspired by Dorothy's one:

gingham dress with checks of white and blue

pink sunbonnet

little basket

silver shoes

So perfect country lolita ^^

Baby's Dobby check OP

 or Bodyline's

So gorgeous♥

I want it for summer♥♥♥

Oh photo shoot in a village with scarecrow etc
would be absolutely amazing♥
