Chiming in to say I agree with everyone. I've never been a fan of an over load of prints/accessories myself. In some cases, I actually think it looks incredibly costume-y. OTT stuff is best reserved for special occasions like meets and cons because of the amount of planning and attention to detail it requires. Not to say that 'boring' coords don't require those things. But with OTT styles (especially sweet) you have more balls in the air so it's easier to mess up.

I personally like my dress to be the main focus of the outfit. All the other little details are just frosting on the cake. I also prefer one or two pieces of jewelry that really pop and make a statement as opposed to a riot of accessories.

Pic related. I want my wardrobe to be nothing but this. This and hats and rose corsages. Classical bags and elegant shoes.

I'd also rather see full sets of a series worn together than some of the coordinates I see, sometimes. Not always though.
