(I think the accessory is great Venia! Very classic and gothic feeling, should work well.)
Maybe you like more of an old classic sweet style? Before the pastels and OTT trends took over. It's a style I find mildly appealing though I'm much more of a classic person. Innocent World and Taobao my loves~~~
Bodyline is great for most things, though if you don't like sweet (I don't but you do?) their dresses aren't the best. I'd look at Taobao brands, they're pretty freaking awesome. Like Infanta, R-Series, Dear Celine, Magic Tea Party, Chess Story, Cici, Ista Mori, Yolanda, Surface Spell, Krad Lanrete, there are so many! Their prices are between Bodyline and Brand (except for Krad Lanrete which is as pricey and nice as Brand) and their quality as well though some are as nice as Brand (Ista Mori is a new Taobao brand for instance that got very good reviews on one of their OPs). Most Taobao items go from between $80-$150ish. And people say to mostly get shoes/accessories from Bodyline/Taobao/offbrand unless you want a specific Brand look/pride because the price just isn't worth it for those items.
I'm personally in love with Taobao 10000%. It's just a pain finding a good Shipping Service - the only two I hear generally good about are Taobao Spree (very good but a little irritating to work with the spreadsheets) and Bhiner (convenient but not as perfect at Taobao Spree). And shopping through an SS kinda sucks because fees, but it's cheaper than a reseller like Clobbaonline and Qutieland. Though the latter speak perfect English and may have items that have since sold out on the Taobao stores. *shrugs*
