Tea Party Shoes - Qutieland

I bought a pair of Tea Parties off of Qutieland - something that I have been meaning to do and finally did it. 

Buying shoes in japanese sizes always freak me out, and unfortunately these shoes are a bit TOO snug on my feet. They are so adorable in person and they look great. I'm either going to have to try and see if I can get another pair in half a size up, or just suck it up and hope they stretch out when I decide to wear them. 

I am a US 8.5, and I bought these in a 24.5cm, which is apparently the same size. With these shoes however they could very well be a US 8. I have bought two pairs of lolita shoes from Bodyline, both in 24.5cm, one pair fitting perfectly (the shoe was rounded at the top which gave my toes much more room, the other pair squished my toes so bad that my big toe's nail ended up falling off after a few months of being bruised)

Qutieland unfortunately only will exchange if they have sent the wrong size from what was requested from the buyer. The shoes came to more or less $80 after shipping, if I were to buy a size 25cm they would charge me extra. So i'm still debating what I want to do. I haven't actually worn them out yet, but I don't want to screw up my toenail again and loose it for another year.

Fantasy Theater OP - Angelic Pretty

Wowowow I am totally bad with doing this blogger stuff. But I have come here today to talk about another lolita dress that I bought a few months back. I was browsing Lacemarket like I always do, and came across a Fantasy Theater OP with the socks & choker included for a pretty good price. I instantly bought it and everything went according to plan swimingly. 

So i'm going to post some pictures of it! I bought it brand new with tags, it hadn't even been tried on. This was my second angelic pretty dress that I have bought, and come late July I am receiving my third Angelic Pretty set, Dream Marine in Navy Blue. 

One thing to note about this dress, I am currently in the process of receiving the headbow that I won off of mbok. But enough talk, to the pictures!

The dress fits fine, this is my first OP that I have ever bought and I noticed my upper arms are a bit too thick to button the sleeves together. I'm hoping with the Dream Marine it will fit fine, otherwise i'll be pretty upset since I bought an entire set.

This set came to about $310 I believe but like I said it was brand new. I can't wait to wear it to Otakon this year!

First Angelic Pretty Dress!

Holy crap I'm so bad at keeping up with things. I mean I haven't bought too many things that are worthy of a review, but this week I purchased my first brand Lolita dress and I couldn't be more happier with it.

I bought my first Angelic Pretty dress! I was browsing around on Lace Market and then I came across the Cosmic JSK in Ivory, it was listed along with the OTKs and I was so happy to see that it was up for sale. It was brand new with tags, only tried on over a blouse. I also got the hair scrunchie too for another $10, which I thought was a good deal since it retails at like what, $25? It's actually pretty funny how this just happened randomly cause back when the print was released, I was debating on staying home to try to order it, or I could go to my first Lolita meet. I decided to goto the Lolita meet (and I had a blast) Little did I know months later I would find it online for sale.

Here's some pictures, please excuse the tag being on the dress while I was wearing it, I wanted to make sure it fit before I ripped the tags off.

I'll take proper pictures of the whole coord when I put on makeup and such. Overall I'm so estatic about this dress and I couldn't be more happier with it. It kinda hurt me to drop that much money down on just a dress, but it was definitely worth it. I can't wait to wear it again (Christmas for sure)

Spreepicky Review!

Oh my gosh it's been 4 months since I've posted a review, I've been so busy!! I had Otakon last weekend and it was a total blast, met some cuties (i.e mahouprince) and made new friends from the Persona photo-shoot!! I wore both of my Lolita dresses and my Risette cosplay! Can't wait to be back at Otakon again next year; but to get back on topic, I have a review!

This review is my first review for Spreepicky, but it's the second time I've ordered from them! For those who don't know what Spreepicky is, they're a store on storeenvy that sells all kinds of cute clothing, accessories, shoes, pretty much everything you can think of! They're basically a shopping service for Taobao from what I've gathered, making it way easier to purchase things that you'd see on Taobao without the hassle of going through a shopping service! They always give excellent customer service and I've never had any problems with everything I've bought from them (aside from sizing problems, but that can be with any clothing store you buy from)

Okay now onto the review!

I bought two items from this haul, a lolita heart shaped bag and my first seifuku!

Seifuku

 This seifuku comes in so many different colors! Here are some photos straight from the listing:

I got my seifuku in navy blue; the wrapping is always really nice which gives it a super cute plus to it!

Awkward selfies yay! So the material is pretty nice for only getting this at the low price of $19.99! The shirt is stretchy, while the skirt isn't. I bought this in a size M I believe? I can't remember exactly, either M or XL. But they are telling the truth when they say to look at the sizing numbers carefully!! A medium is more like a small, etc. I would definitely recommend going a size higher then what your measurements would be listed, so you don't have to worry about it not fitting properly. I have pretty wide hips, so I had to squeeze a bit for the skirt to get over my bum. I have a smaller waist, so I do have to wear the skirt a bit higher then my belly button is (like I said this is my first seifuku, so i'm not entirely sure if you're supposed to wear it that high or not - let me know!) I absolutely love this seifuku and will definitely plan on ordering more, in a bigger size.

If you'd like to order this in their "plus-size" here are the links!

Overall, I give this seifuku a 4/5 stars!

Lolita Heart Purse

The heart purse also comes in different colors! Here are the photos from the listing

 

I got my purse in white, since it'll be more universal with my Lolita dresses, or even my everyday wear!

There was tons of bubble wrap and bubbles inside of the purse so it wouldn't get smushed on it's long journey to the United States!

length/23cm, height/20cm, thickness/8cm

The straps can be made super long so you can cross it over your torso, or it could be hung from one arm. For my purposes, it'll be a cross bag. This bag was a bit pricey for me at $45.00, but was cheaper then buying a brand bag. The PU leather is a really nice quality, I'm excited to get my use out of this bag!

I give this bag 5/5 stars!

Spreepicky is also notorious for sending thank you cards, which I think gives it a really personal touch when you buy from the store! I'm so happy with my things I purchased and I will definitely be buying from them again!
