Just a quick update on some orders..

Just to update on the Blooming Snow White situation: After sending a second email to Baby, to inquire about my order, I received an email from them where they said that the JSK was sold out. *GASP!!*
I felt my Lolita-heart break and I was filled with mix of sadness and great annoyance directed towards Baby. This was the second time I had tried to order something only to find out that it was sold out. They should really do a better job with updating their website.
However, all hope was not lost. I put up a WTB post on egl_comm_sales and someone was kind enough to sell me their dress there. So I am very happy about still getting this dress.

Innocent World started their online winter sale last week. Did anyone go on a crazy shopping spree there? I just got the Christina JSK in plum.



I hadn’t actually planned to buy anything from their sale, but then I saw this dress and I remember eyeing the green version several times, because I really like the bust line. I have a weakness for under bust dresses and even though this isn’t one, the resemblance is enough. I think it is so pretty when you can see a bit more of the blouse underneath than with the typical Lolita JSK.

I only had two concerns with this dress. The fabric is lightweight cotton. I’m not quite sure what that’s going to be like, but I guess, it’ll be nice for spring and summer. Second concern was the fact that it’s a three-tier skirt. I usually don’t care much for that kind of design, especially when the tiers are accentuated by lace as they are in this case.
Those were my concerns, but I love the colour and the over-all classical feel of the dress, and once I started imagining it in different coords, I kind of fell in love with it.

I don’t know if you’ve been following Qutieland’s livejournal, but one of the Chinese brands they carry there, DollscroPs, have made this Little Deer series “inspired” by AP’s Milky Chan. It’s adorable and I really love how the appliqué looks on an all pink skirt. I contemplated getting it, but I was a little skeptical of the suede fabric. Thankfully, I paced myself and Qutieland recently updated with new colour and fabric choices. I ordered a skirt in light purple corduroy with white polka dots. I love purple with Lolita. I’m really looking forward to receiving this skirt. I have a feeling it’ll be one of those ‘feel good’ skirts that I’ll wear when I need to cheer myself up.

Anyway, I went and ordered the grey music JSK from Bodyline along with a matching bag and the pink shoes. It all arrived the other day and I’m happy to report that everything fits (well, the shoes are a bit big, but that’s what insoles are for) and is of perfectly decent quality.
