Where might one find that blue dress?

Here's the tiny incohesive closet child purchase I made for my birthday.

>>9046121
Do you can buy from Swimmer without a SS?I love your big haul!

The lolita gods answered my prayers and sent me my dream skirt. The world is good and just.

here you go!
>>9046794
I used FromJapan as my SS when I buy from Swimmer. And thank you!

>>9046810
Nice haul, anon. Congrats on getting a dream item.

I just got my leggings after a month of processing!!

I have new cosplay cards coming in :)

Just a couple of cute items.

I have been needing a light coloured bag, especially in lavender!

>>9046715
That sweater is so cute! Who makes it? I might have to track down one for myself

Bought one of my dream dresses recently. Now I just gotta track down the lavender version.

>>9047592
Good taste. The gray/lavender version is on my wl as well. It's a low priority so if I see it, I'll post it in the DD thread for you.

Got pic related coming in from Wunderwelt. Not shown: a big ass order from WEGO since I'm running a group order for it

>>9047581
Those meta bags are great, I have the cream and it's super sturdy

>>9047681
Oh that is so good to hear! I really want it in black too but I have 100 black bags so I probably don't need it

>>9047616
Thanks so much, anon!

>>9047581
Thank you so much! It's by candy stripper and I managed to snag it for for cheap on closet child so look out for it!
I love that phone case in your haul anon.

>>9046121
Sauce on the pink bunny beret? Very cute haul btw ^-^

I've already received about half of this but anyway
>tfw taobao order finally arrives but it's right before a long weekend and I have to wait an extra day

I got those two blouses and the skirt and socks and wig all together. Still waiting on the blouses, wig and socks. Skirt came in and it's great for being bodyline.

Saw Horror Garden going for cheap and it's a dream dress of mine... so I bid on it not knowing it was on another site and now it's gonna get to me even faster!

Just ordered some of this for my battleaxe prop a few minutes ago. c:

>>9047592
Updating my mail order because I have a problem.

>>9050700
Is your problem excellent taste?

>>9050700
I have that tulle f.i.n.t. skirt in chocolate and I adore it. Absolutely a good choice.

>>9050712
Thanks anon. Just weeping over my wallet. I wish fint was cheaper, like Axes Femme or Amavel, but the clothes are so nice.

>>9050727
I'm glad to hear that! Tulle skirts are always a hit or miss for me.

>>9048929
Source on those tartan dresses, anon? Everything is so cute!

Grabbed a couple of items on YJA and some bracelets from the Japan disney store. Can't wait to recieve Marble chocolate, I wanted it for ages.

EOS New Adult Pink contacts

Not even for cosplay, just fashion.

So I settled for my dream print, even though I wanted a different cut. And then the cut I wanted came up. Guess who ended up with both?

>>9050700
>All that Fint stuff
Fantastic choice anon. I own two of their skirts and the quality of the price is really good.

>>9051020
Sure thing, they're soo cheap
https://world.taobao.com/item/527744523204.htm

Hopefully gonna lurk LM and CC more before making some more orders.

>>9046923
bless you <3

Just this for now but I've been in a huge slump lately which usually leads to me buying way too much stuff.

>>9051197
Anon I think someone on LM is selling a bunch of milky-chan accessories. I think it'll work together with this.

>>9055906
Super cute, anon!

>>9055722
Wow, it's beautiful!

Ordered some new lipstick, and some clothes that I've been eyeing. Nothing too special this time around.

Finally got my dream shoes!

I bought this set in black. I'm really excited for it!

So excited to finally own a gobelin dress. Judging by the type of fabric, I'm guessing it's going to be heavy. Can anyone who has a dress with that type of fabric confirm?

recently placed another taobao order and bought some things off WW. Still waiting on the deer dress...one day it will get here...

>>9057095
I don't have that dress, but I do have one of meta's gobelin skirts and its just a print. Like the actual fabric is really quite light. Not sure if it's the same for all of their gobelin things, but that dress looks similar enough to the skirt I have I'm gonna guess it's the same light printed fabric.

>>9057145
I need like, all the things. But I would especially love a link to the mori bloomers, headpiece for braiding, mushroom beret, and the strawberry hat/bag.

My wallet is crying

>>9057145
>>9058012
You have good taste anon.

>>9058035
All worth it I hope. Really rooting for you to win the bid.

My dream dress.
Ordered it from Baby today.
Usually, I find it waaay easier/cheaper to just look solely at the secondhand stuff, and not get my hopes up over shit I can't afford. This dress is special. I'm currently looking around for a nice bonnet to pair it with.

>>9057172
You're amazing, thanks!

Goodbye grad money

>>9046121
Adorable haul, congrats! That apron is really cute, where'd you get it from?

>>9046121
Please link to the cat cup thing and the strawberry teapot

>>9061996
Nice.

>>9057492
Congrat anon!
Same dream dress - but dying over the mint color

been a while since I made a TB order

>Ordered a new dress
>It's been stuck in customs for a fucking week
What are they doing with it? Passing it around the office and trying it on? Why is UK customs so shit.

>>9062616
Is that the LL Taisho outfit? What store did you get it from anon?

>>9055906
Please do a review! I've been on the fence about this in a different cut.

That's awesome anon! I've been eyeing the same set for a while but have to refrain because I recently made another dress reservation :x

These just arrived, I can't wait to kill myself making ruffles.

Only this and some pre-order Sailor Moon stuff right now. Got this version of the JSK in black.

>>9062616
would love a link to the tomato dress

>>9063769

Here we go! The reviews are absolutely stunning and I've been wanting to do this outfit for a long time! Just got shipped off the other day.

I think my only issue is that some of the colours of the hakama are slightly off.(but hey theyre embroided....)

New petti in white

I have a bunch of things in the mail but the thing I'm most excited about is a Cune Peropero Sparkles pass case
I've always loved the artwork and needed a cute pass case for my school ID, so I went for it and am excited I'll own it soon
The original price was nearly $40 but I had some TOM points/coupons and got the price down to about $29 including shipping so I don't feel too guilty about it

>>9067942
Would you mind giving your opinion on it when it arrives? I need to replace my shitty eBay petti soon

I'm love live trash

>>9067968
Sauce on the wig and review when it comes in?

>>9067952
Diff anon, but I recently got this one and the smaller one by MM. I got the big Jennifer one first and it looks great under some of my heavier A-line dresses, but it makes lighter skirts look like lampshades. That's why I ended up buying the less floofy one. The big one is also good for stacking under a bell petti to make a monster petti. Quality on both is good. Soft and fluffy, maybe a bit too prone to tangling around legs and bunching, but nothing unmanageable.

>>9067973
Which one? But yeah I can do that!

The AP stuff was in a separate order and arrived today, rest of the stuff was supposed to have arrived already but is probably not going to arrive until next week now.

>>9067968
Link to UR envelope purse please?

Spotted this bby on LM today. This will be a wonderful addition to my wardrobe.

This baby right here, together with an IW blouse. I've been eyeing this dress since I started in Lolita, so it feels reeeaaaally good to finally get my hands on it. It's also my first Classic piece - my best friend is a Classic Lolita and I think she's almost as hyped about this dress as I am, just because it means we'll be able to go out together dressed in the same substyle. It's kind of adorable, haha!

>>9067988
The gradient wig!

>>9068067
Oh this is such a cute piece! Congratulations on getting a dream dress, anon, I hope it lives up to your expectations!

>>9067952
It should be delivered later today, so it'll be no problem

In lavender

>>9067952
>>9068161
So, the petti came and I'm super happy with it. It's very soft and light and REALLY poofy, which is great. I think it could be a little TOO poofy for some outfits, so maybe having another malco modes petti (since they're so durable) with less floof would be a good option as well, like the other anon said. Overall, 9/10 petti.

Got a small haul of Jojo stuff coming in soon, including pic attached. Been waiting for these since April, I'm so excited!

Got this Boz blouse off cc!

>>9068024
One of the lolitas I follow swears up and down how great and versatile this piece is. It's really starting to grow on me.

>>9062616
Could I get a link to that strawberry shirt please?
>>9056392
That strawberry sweater is adorable, do you have a link?

After a long buying hiatus, I'm waiting on these! Not gonna lie, that yen increase hurts.

>>9063683

Yay for summer sales!

>>9057095
I have an oldschool like 2002 rose gobelin set and it's extremely heavy material with a built-in crinoline. So nice

I have a bunch of stuff I missed delivery on today. Damaged white AP purse, baby petticoat, meta lucky pack, red oldschool jsk. I'm hoping they keep it a few days and don't send it back (USPS) since I am out of town until Friday

I have a meta lucky pack in the mail. I'm hoping for the dark colorway. Anybody get their lucky pack yet?

>>9072321
It's The Dream of Arcana from the Taobao brand Angels Heart

>>9074026
Call your post office and have them hols it or schedule a redelivery for when you're back, anon. I do it all the time.

First time using AliExpress, are any Chinese shipping companies notorious for being late? Additionally, does Chinese customs generally take this long to let things through? I'm worried, as it's supposed to be here by July 5th.

>>9057095
I used to own the Meta Gobelin JSK, it is indeed quite heavy. And super long too. I recently made a Lolibrary entry for it which has more info.

>>9074286
Didn't know you could do that, I'll try it. Thank you

>>9074315
I've had things take up to 3 months max. Typically takes a month. China is slow.

fancy egg already came, it's really pretty in person, although I'm still iffy about the b/w diamond print. also really needed some new foundation, tried the stick in person and I really liked it and I heard nice thing about the highlighter.

mai waifu's figures are going cheap enough that I can justify buying into figs now

and some more VM for my wardrobe

Also getting some terrarium stuff and some marimo for my new fish tank. It'll be like Christmas in July.

>>9076395
Good taste on everything anon

I may have just went a little nuts on wunderwelt's lacemarket
I'll make a collage later but it's all accessories because I'm just starting out and don't have any and only really have main pieces

Just bought this the other day for a steal on LM! Should get here in a few days!

Some yu gi oh cards.

Pep fox items - bought them during the reserve period, now all I have to do is wait, and wait.

Grimoire - drank a bit too much last night and was browsing CC while still tipsy. Still no regrets, I think.

Fluevog shoes - I was definitely sober for this one so definitely no regrets. Snatched these in the sale. I fell hard for that hexagonal heel.

>>9082390

They're called the elisabetta shoes from the baroques line! When I was ordering most sizes were still available.

I agree, most of the sale shoes were not to my taste. The last seasons have featured styles far too clunky for me. Bring back my claw heel pls Fluevog.

>>9082382
This is chocolatey and delicious
Definitely post pics of the coords you make, I have a soft spot for chocolate ones

are there any canadian gulls here? I have some stuff on the way but keep hearing about a Canada Post strike but info is scattered everywhere and no one knows how long mail will be affected and if they will deliver any mail at all..

Got some flats coming. I got the top two pairs already back in 2014, but after wearing them like 80% of the time the black ones now have gotten a hole on the bottom near the sole, and the beige ones are stained up bad because of my jeans and dirt. So finally replacing.
And hoping the bottom two pairs end up being okay.

>>9084091
I wouldn't worry about it. It's like the IKEA strikes. They'll just get other people to fill in until it ends.

Though I wouldn't be surprised if packages are delayed for a few weeks.

>>9084541
Will you review when they come in?

>>9084546
Actually if there is a strike, they arent getting other people to fill in. It seems to be that some essential stuff like disability checks will be sent but nothing else. If there is a long strike they are planning on a few days a month to work to help.

Last time this happened they striked for 3 weeks and were told to gtfo and work again, but this time the gov says they arent going to do that. However if there is a strike you will know, and there will be notice before it starts, so like if they say they are striking monday, they will actually stay on wed or thurs to give you time to made arrangements.

>>9084573
Will do.

>>9084082
Aww thank you anon I will definitely think about posting to CoF I'm just really intimidated

>>9084541
links for the flats please?

Odds and ends but it's my first time ordering from Taobao. Is powdering a Silky much different from doing it to a regular wig?

Having been mistakenly shipped to the opposite side of the planet, it's finally cleared customs in the correct country nearly a month after it was sent out! Since there was no strike announcement today, it should be here Friday per the tracking schedule!

Sorry for blogging, I'm very excited!

So many doughnuts argh - really happy to be getting one of my big dream dresses though! <3

>>9067944
From where did you purchase it? I've always loved Sekiya Yurie's stuff, was it from JapanLA or where?

>>9079043
Sauce on the pink skirt+shirt, that sparkly dress (?) next to it and the shirt with a skirt print, please!

This is not even all of it. I'm so fucking sad and I can't stop buying because it makes me feel better for a split second.. i don't even like some of it all that much.. fucked up but maybe it will bring some joy eventually when it comes

>>9089920
That's such an amazing haul. If it's causing you so much trouble maybe getting counselling for it will help.

>>9089829
It was from tokyo otaku mode. They have a pouch version too but I figured I'd get more use out of the pass case. Also I bought more stuff to add to >>9067944 and >>9080374 so I'm officially out of control now

>>9089379
Ha you beat me to it, congrats on mcd!

>>9090112
Ah gosh thank you! I was lucky enough to have my phone out where I could see it and God knows I've been annoying my comm friends by lusting over that dress for long enough that one of them was bound to ping me on a listing eventually! Best of luck finding it yourself soon!

>>9019920
>>9090004

Yeah anon, beautiful giant haul, I can't imagine how fun that would be to get all of that. I agree on the counseling, that can be a dangerous coping mechanism and I hope you feel better

>>9089923
I'd love to know how these new lockshop wigs are. Some of them look like shit on the website and I'm afraid to order from them again, I have 5 wigs from their old original manufacturers.

This is my first time doing a lucky pack so here's hoping it's a good one!

Fuck me I just bought these lenses on top of all of that because I was weak with the Honey Color sale
I'm done buying stuff for this month

Got a bunch of itabag/merch stuff coming in. Got a cheap knockoff wego heart bag and i'm going to try and make an Ajin themed bag with it (mostly shimomura and kei.) Star bag is on preorder. Super excited for everything to come. I'm not 100% sure of the entire contents of the box so it will be a nice surprise when it comes.

Okay, I hope this is the right place to ask. It's mail related, so...

I bought a dress awhile back from Malaysia. For some reason USPS doesn't track it from there, so I've been using track.aftership to try and see where it is.

Since July 1 it's been "dispatched out ISC NEW YORK NY". At first I thought it was fine that it had been stuck on that since it's been a holiday week. But at this point I'm starting to get worried.

I don't know what to do to find out what's going on.

can't wait!

>>9095746
It's probably enroute to you.

>>9045874
Taobao haul and two Antique BeasT headdresses. I'm never using Spreenow again; they didn't even take my package to the post office for almost a week until after I messaged them asking wtf was up with my package since the tracking status kept showing as "information received." The tracking finally changed to "received from customer." Thanks, Spreenow. I also screwed myself on shipping from AB; should've just had it sent directly to me with EMS instead of using Tenso. Would've saved some money and time :(

Ahhh I'm super, super sorry I didn't get to you earlier! Internet connection completely gave up on me for a bit.

I haven't bought anything since May, and I'm really excited about these pieces I scored!

anon...

I'm dumb, can someone help me out? Listen Flavor sent me this, it was not an invoice, am I supposed to respond to this? Or just sit tight and wait for their invoice? Never bought from their rakuten store before so I'm not sure...

>>9098088
I was lusting after that VM OP but I was worried my Hulk arms would be too big. Detail pics when it arrives please.

>>9098399
You wait for them to box up your stuff and get you an international shipping quote. Then they'll invoice you. Wunderwelt does a similar thing.

>>9098405
I have literal man arms and VM's sleeves fit fine on me. Next time go for it!

>>9098405
I've had problems with these kinds of OP sleeves before, but mostly from older dresses. My VM OP from 2001 has unbearably tight sleeves, but I have one from 2004 which is much more comfortable. They both measure the same length (15" fully stretched), so it might be a different type of elastic. I'm hoping this one will be fine because it's a more recent dress. I'll report back when I get it!

I had bought the bordeaux colorway of the Cinderella Jewelry JSK six years ago and have been waiting for the damn matching headbow to go on sale at a second hand shop and I finally got it. Thank goodness for Closet Child. I just got my shipping notification yesterday.

>>9095746
It has left customs and is probably on a shitty, convoluted route to get to you. I've had packages leave customs from that location and take three weeks to get to me. The good news is that it got through customs.

>>9061996
Adding on to this.
I was only suppose to buy one item with fromjapan, but then it turned into 10 and im afraid to see what my charge 2 looks like right now.

I got a text message saying that my package is going to be delivered today via EMS (I think, the number began with EL) with some tracking number I don't recognize and I'm really confused because I can't remember what I ordered and everything I ordered this month has arrived except for one thing I haven't been invoiced for yet so ?????

Flower Fairy JSK from Magic Tea Party.

>>9098984
Good haul! Are you the anon from the dream dress thread?

>>9099202
Yesss I am! I finally got that IW dress and I'm ecstatic!

Just got two of my dream dresses, they should arrive sometime this week or next. I'm so excited!

>>9099433
Excellent taste anon, I look forward to seeing coords made with them

>>9097513
Nope, I'm not retarded.

>>9067990
link for the star bracelet please? (the one that is all stars)

>>9099313
I'm so happy for you!! Congratulations!

>>9098418
Do you mind me asking which pieces you have anon? I started exercising a bit more recently and my OPs are like 'nah senpai' when I button the sleeve even though they're spacious at the waist and bust.

>>9098559
Much appreciated. I have an older VM OP that fits much better than one of my newer pieces, maybe it was just a freak extra stretchy one?

>>9099530
Not as in literally all of them, as in mixing opposing styles, dumbo

>>9099874
Hahaha.... Don't be happy for me anymore apparently my auction got cancelled ..... Why can't I get this dress????

>>9100046
If it gets relisted maybe try ChibiTenshi? I think she looks a little more authentic as a buyer while other ss sometimes look like corporations or something.

My first taobao order. I'm also getting a cute desktop organizer.

Bodyline was mad cheap, so I kind of went ham.

And Tomoyo finally released!

>>9100278
I have that Bodyline skull love me hoodie and prepare for short sleeves. I have to push mine up to my elbows because it stops a good 2-3 inches from my wrists. Otherwise it's fantastic and I love it. It's a nice Autumn weather jacket.
Also those bat tights are going to be super small, like Asian size fit only.

>>9100396
I ordered it in L and I usually wear a S... but desu i was expecting to push the sleeves up. I have mad long arms. It's good to hear that it's a nice jacket though! I only really got it because it was really cheap, and i just bought a bunch of Listen Flavor stuff and it kind of fit the aesthetic.

And, I have other bodyline tights, as long as they fit the same I'll be okay. A bit of awkward crotch, but it'll be covered up so it's alright.

>>9100268
anon any sauce on the bottom left big pink bow?

>>9100037
That's what I meant, dumbass,

some stuff I reserved on taobao is finally shipping out, probably won't see it for another month though. also clinging to pokemon go right now, I haven't cosplayed in forever so I think I wanna do a trainer cosplay!

Not sure where to ask this but I will try here. Is there a forwarding service people like to use forward packages from the UK to the USA? Like Tenso but for UK? I want to get a couple things from their Amazon but they won't ship overseas to me.

>>9100596
That Clefairy has a sweet nutsack.

>>9100647
I know USA forwarding services exist. Just google it anon. "UK package forwarding" or something.

Debating on whether or not to get some of Ash's various pokemon hats for me and my husband while we go out playing Pokemon Go.
Extended battery pack is also for Pokemon Go.

>>9100046
Oh no! Yeah, they might not like that it's a shopping service...

Aerie had some shimapan-adjacent undies. Also ordered more fabric and some other sewing supplies, but those aren't fun.

>>9100893
hey, i have those two on the right! Really nice, thick fabric, high quality just like all of aerie's stuff :)

>>9100863
I like your taste in shirts. I would wear such busy patterns if I were a tiny thing. But I'm tall so there's a lot of body to cover and tiny patterns look crazy on me.

>>9100905
Thanks! I'm pretty small so I don't think that'll be an issue except maybe with the red one. I'm afraid it may be kind of grandma in person.
Hyped for the bee pajamas also. Even if they're thin, who cares it's not like I'm wearing them out.

The power bear was a good purchase.

>>9100432
It's watermarked anon. Jesus.

>>9101957
Just got it today! It's obviously heavier than the phone was without it but the shape make my phone so much easier to hold. The case is actually nice too. The inner piece snapped on firmly and the outer rubber case is solid.

>>9101833
Of course! They still have 10 days "processing time" so it may be a while though. Just search "cherry shirt" in the archive at some point a month from now haha

>>9072497
if you're still around could you review the wigs and tomato dress?

>>9101902
hey anon, seems like the original link to the item isn't working and that they deleted it. I'm not sure if they will sell extras or not, but as mentioned, I did buy the item on reserve and I bought it back in January. I think it was called Lost Paradise OP or something. This is the store.

>>9103390
Thanks anon, can never have enough bees.

>>9103812
nice! I just got my Starlight OP in the pinky lavender and, while I hate the satin belt below the bodice and am trying to figure out the best way to make it stay put/remove it, the dress is extremely beautiful. I love how the frills at the end of the waist ties are an even lighter color than the lightest of the bustle colors. I felt like a sunset when I tried it on!

Was gonna buy some Bubblegum pink doc martens boots to go with my fairy kei things in winter and for when it's raining, only to find they didn't do my size, so I called them up and then followed up with an email, and they're making a pair up especially for me, at the normal price. I am so excited. Should get them within about 5 weeks, hahah... long wait will be worth it.

>>9100268
Source on wig and navy shoes?

>>9095746
I'm this anon again.

It's been 17 days with no updates. I live in Arkansas and normally the most it takes to get here is 7 days. Am I just being a paranoid idiot or what? :(

>>9104990
I once had an item take a month to get from NY customs to Chicago. If it doesn't come in two more weeks, then I would open up a dispute.

>>9104990
>>9105013
no? if you see it's in US you don't open a fucking dispute, you go and submit a lost mail form

>>9105016
Sorry I meant the lost mail form, for some reason I was thinking about a PayPal dispute.

>>9105016
I've never had mail lost before. Can you tell me what exactly they do?

I'm gonna be pretty damn upset if it's lost. Sigh.

>>9105021
Well, in either case, yhe seller is the one that has to do the legwork for the package, the receiver can't, unfortunately.

>>9105025
it literally starts a search for your package starting from the last place it was seen at, basically
people will ocmb through the warehouse looking for your package and where the fuck it went

>>9105026
is that really the case? in my shitty euro country either can start it

Nothing much, just some phone cases. I hope they look cute in person.

>>9104990
I once had a package stuck in NY customs for two weeks. I then called USPS to ask about the package and where it is, and suddenly in the next two days it moved again and I eventually got it. Definitely try calling USPS, either the main line, or call that specific USPS center.

>>9102216
Which ones anon? They all arrived today and I haven't gotten a chance to soak them yet so no trying them on today (also no reason for me to do my makeup for at least the next week since I work as a camp counselor outdoors in this 96°+ heat) but I'd be happy to take photos of them in the vials!

>>9103843
Wtf lol.

Just some stuff from the auction sites so far, might add an AP blouse to this if the price goes down at all in the next couple days.

>>9104990
Same anon again. This keeps getting worse and worse.

So I did what everyone was telling me to do and called USPS. I told them the tracking number, where it was coming from and to who, all that jazz.

Turns out I have the wrong code, according to the lady. The code I have was for someone in Texas that was delivered on the 14th and was signed for. I live in Arkansas. I know the seller didn't make the simple mistake of putting Texas on it instead because apparently that package was signed for and everything.

I contacted the seller and they told me that the site they use wasn't working right now.

I don't know what to do gulls. I just want my dress.

>>9106410
That blue dress is adorable.

>>9106419
Shit anon. I guess if things keep going so shitty the best thing you can do is get your money back.

>>9106487
This is the dress, anon: http://lolibrary.org/apparel/magical-starry-sky-chiffon-op

I seem to remember blue isn't even the most popular colourway.

I'm going to be so kawaii

Make-up, sewing books, and lots of lace. Also some fabric from Rakuten.

I bought a bunch of Hetalia/Germany stuff for an itabag, didn't have a bag I liked, put it away, then found the stuff again tonight and finally sat down and bought one of those wego bags. Tea party replicas I got for a nice price on LM. OP is, if my lolibrary findings are correct, an old metamorphose piece from 2004, so I'm pretty pleased with my y!jp find. I think I was probably 9 when that came out.

We dont have a proxy thread so posting here seems the most relevant.

Im looking to preorder a bag off Super groupies and I usually PO with treasureJapan but they recently upped their commission prices from 10 to about 15%...

Would anyone know any other proxy's that take POs but dont cost as much as TJ?

Thanks in advance!

Ordered some resin molds off Etsy. The moon molds I'll probably get them Monday or Tuesday. The other two I'll get some time in August.

>>9106570
nice lace anon! what will you be making?

marathoning all of Ajin now and was literally thinking about doing an ita bag of it with that black heart bag! hahaha

>>9071589
Anon, what is the pink blouse called/wheredid you get it? I cannot see it on the website unless I'm blind

Cross post from another thread, this all arrived from Listen Flavor yesterday! I love that I got a free mug and tote bag

Don't even care if it everywhere. I need it.

>you're the one that bought the scalped meta dress that the seller bought off mercari
I'm so sorry anon, but otherwise excellent taste. Germany a qt.

Just managed to snag off Maiden Clothing an older Boz jsk that I've been keeping my eye out for since last May, after missing out on one that was up on MBok for ages, only to vanish when I wanted to grab it. It was either that dress or another Boz one at the time, and I chose to go for the other one.... only for it to turn out to be an older Atelier Pierrot piece. Theres one up on Lacemarket atm but it's got bad sun fading damage and is being sold by someone with bad feedback. Super stoked now.

>>9114579
didnt know it was from mercari but considering the apparent (although minor) bleach stain, the age, and the fact it was on a Japanese auction site (seems like Japanese sellers always reduce prices drastically for the smallest shit??) I knew the price was pretty steep but I really love meta and the piece was pretty cute. I figure, if you love a dress you'll almost any price for it so just go for it. And thanks anon! I never made it that far in my Hetalia weeb days (kinda stopped following the series when it got officially translated and the popularity exploded) but my love for my first husbando will never die.

>>9114916
fuuuuck anon that is a sweet buy, congrats.

>>9113557
not that other anon but I've been looking for more straw hats, these are cute, thanks for the link!

>>9096945
What a beautiful haul, congrats! Do you think I could have source on the choker and heart apron blue dress? You're going to look adorable in your stuff when it comes, it's all so cute.

>>9089923
So you're the one that bought the scalped CDC bag for $300. Ouch.

>>9114953
Also for the record please don't purchase things from Hervia again. I mean, you can but you're supporting her scalping. Everything she sells is scalped and jacked up at least three times the regular asking price. You could've bought that bag for ~$110 instead of being so naive.

>>9114926
Thanks! It's simple and easy to wear. The back has three buckles to cinch the waist in a bit, and the skirt is pretty full. I love the chain detail on the collar.

>>9068024
Good luck anon. The waist usually runs at 68cm on it and there is zero give in the fabric, but it's lovely. I have it in black x iris.

Hello, just got my items in a few hours ago. I'll give my opinions on all of the items (except the elephant, it never came).

Sunglasses: Really sturdy, you get a free bag to put them in as well.
Macaron case: Quite ... small? It's good quality and all, but it won't hold more than a few pencils for sure.
FaSoLa bottle: It surely feels sturdy, it is a little bit taller than your average water bottle, came with a free catalogue!
Shimapan: The worst. It came in such a tiny, tiny size. I had to toss it, it even came in the wrong type.
Constellation clip: Adorable, The only thing weird is there's more of a clasp to get it on your hair, so that's a downside.
Radiant t-shirt: Super, super sort. I absolutely love it.
The off-the-shoulder with the collar: Came in the wrong color, but black is ok too. Lovely fit!
Dress: It is actually lined, and quite heavy. I definitely will use it for the fall. I am 5'8'' and it hit me about a few inches above the knee.
Tights: Comfortable fit.
Case: I LOVE THIS CASE. It fits my phone perfectly, only issue is it gets dusty quite easy so be careful! Came with a free gel phone holder...thing.
Thigh highs: Were actually thigh high socks, I was not a fan.
Top/skirt/purse: Only came with the top, the top was good quality though!
Sparkly top/skirt: Came up SUPER short on me, the top hit me right at my upper chest.
T-shirt dress: Really good quality, Candy Rain is definitely a brand I recommend.
White collared top: My favorite item out of all I got, it was also lined.

Ordering, processing, shipping from Taobaotrends took about...almost a month to get everything done.

Aw yeeeeeah! Great haul

>>9115567
Thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing what my friends get from CC as I've been bragging on her like crazy.

I know it's super cliche and overdone but this dress and this colorway has been a dream item for me.. and it's finally coming!

>>9114959
Good luck finding any for sale , let alone $110

waiting on a functional ocarina of time (though not specifically for cosplay, I just wanted one because I loved the game) and a doctor labcoat (for a dr. mario cosplay I'm working on)
Also waiting on a special edition zelda wii remote, but thats not cosplay related really

>>9114916
Nice find!

Just got this dress and tights set because why not, I like the design and still love Homura. Tbh I wasn't expecting much, especially in terms of fit, but I think it fits well and looks great even with my wide shoulders.

Something that was a bit irritating for some including myself was that the skeletal feet weren't mirrored at the bottom. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that on the back, the print is the exact same except the feet are printed in the opposite direction and there's a tiny copyright at the toes. So long as I'm not wearing open toe shoes, one side can be worn 'backwards' so that the feet match properly.
