Taobao + TaobaoSpree Review ("AP" Shell bag, "Prisila" hair pieces, F+F cape)

Recently I ordered some items from Taobao. Originally I just wanted shoes, but I thought for just ordering the shoes, it would be to expensive with all the shipping fees, so I ordered other stuff too. But then the shopping service told me that the shoes were sold-out, so I ended up just ordering the other stuff xD

I ordered 1 shell bag, 3 hair pieces, 1 chiffon cape and 1 hair accessory.

Shell bag: Link
I know the bag is a replica of AP. But I think the quality of AP bags is really bad, and it was sold out anyway, so I bought this bag. The quality of this bag is good! #Sorrynotsorry AP!

Hair pieces:  Link 1 Link 2
These are replicas from Prisila. I own(ed) Prisila items and I didn't liked the quality of them either. And for 6000 Yen per hair piece I should expect something better. The quality the replicas are okay. The hair is a bit shiny, real Prisila looks more realistic. Also the color is slightly different than from the original ones, so it looks a little more fake too and doesn't fit my natural hair color as good as the Prisila ones. But I still like them and with a few hair accesories, I can cover the color difference well :)

Chiffon cape: Link
This cape is from Fan + Friend (no replica, they also have a Taobao store!). The fabric is nice and soft, however it has a little chemical smell. But I think after washing it in the washing mashine, it will go away. It also looks nice with my Lolita dresses, althought it could be a tiny bit longer, since I have a large bust. But I think you can request a costum size if you order directly from F+F, so keep this in mind if you also have a larger bust :). The cape also have a clever pearl necklace, it prevents the cape from moving or slipping down!

Japanese hair accessory: Link
Recently I watched many documentaries about japanese culture and I wanted something traditional for my Lolita items, so I bought this accessoire which is usually worn with a Kimono. It is handmade and looks very nice! I love it.

Shopping Service: Link
I paid 116€ for the items + 60€ shipping to Germany. Yes you read right, 60€ for shipping.... I was a little shocked by the price because I expected something like 20€ for such a small package. However after the package arrived, I knew why it was so expensive. The package arrrived in ONE DAY!!! From China to my appartment, only 1 day! And 1 day means, they shipped it with DHL Express! I don't know if they have normal DHL available but if I order again, I will definitly check it before.

The service itself was very nice, they do speak english quite well and answer quickly. I can recommend them.

I hope this review was helpful.

London Part 1 ~ Shopping

Last weekend was the Enchanted Event in London! We already arrived Friday morning so we can go shopping in London :D

Me packing some stuff in the Hostel Lobby... and my bored friends wating for me xD

After we arrived in our Hotel, we went to the famous Oxford Street. It's a really long street with many brands you will not find in Germany. When I visited London for a shopping trip a few years ago, my favourite store was River Island. And this time I found many pretty items there again!

So here is the stuff I bought!

 A leggins from Primark with London Print :D (I will use it as pajamas pants, but I seriously saw a girl  walking with this on the street... and she looked good in it xD)

 The pink jacket and pink shirt are from River Island, and the cream bolero is from the best store in Camden Town, Lili J. => you have to visit it when you are in London, here is the online store: http://www.lilyjlondon.com/

 Shoes from Primark

 Golden bag from River Island (all my friends loved this bag and bought it 1 day later too !!! xD), and a pink bag from Primark

 Now we come to the stuff I bought or got as a present at the Enchanted Event (except the pink belt, it is from Primark). The crown jewellery is from Chocomint, I bought it at the Dreamy Bows stall (best stall ever!). The ring and the button are presents we got at the Tea Party on Sunday, and the tea cup brooch was a prize at the ruffle I won at the Tea Party.

 A close up of the ring and button. I think it's great that we got such presents, they are a great memory for this event!

 

 We got the two postcards as a present, I already pinned them on my Lolita wall. The pink paper is advertisement of Kunika, but it's soo cute I had to pin it on my wall too xD

Last but not least I bought a wallet at the Dreamy Bows stall, and on my last day I bought THE BEST CREAM SODA EVER!!! It's from the Tesco supermarket and it only has 1 calorie per can, and it tastes like whipped cream! Next time when I'm in London, I will buy a huge amount of it xD

In the next post I will post pictures from the Enchanted event. The first to pictures in this post are from my friend Ami :)

New Princess stuff I bought *_*

Hello my dear readers~ <3

I want to show you some items that arrived recently! After waiting for 5 month my dream dress finally arrived!!! ヘ(*_*ヘ) (ノ*_*)ノ

I bought Day Dream Carnival from the re-release. When my Shopping Service sent it out, it only needed 3 days to arrive at my home ~ without paying any taxes even thought it was the most expensive stuff I've ever bought *hehe*  (⌒▽⌒)☆

The only minus is that the sleeves are itchy -_-
I also bought the headbow and tights. I love that the golden color even glitters *__* Here are some more detail pictures:

my favourite Pony with all the flowers~

pretty Pony lace

golden glittery lace

The tights also have pretty ponys!!

Then I also ordered some stuff from Bodyline. I needed some new Lolita shoes because my other shoes broke AGAIN >___> I hate spending so much money for stupid shoes, I think I bought more shoes then dresses but the quality of most Lolita shoes is just bad! But oh well I think this shoes will make me happy, they look really sturdy and are the first shoes which fit me perfectly! And I think they are suitable for both Lolita and Hime ^_^

I also bought a coat. I wanted a simple one which I can also wear every day without Lolita ^-^ But I think the pink color is still too flashy for everyday (>_<)ゞ゛

They also had pretty lave gloves with a ribbon pattern:

And a pink glitter rose ring:

Then last month I was randomly searching for some jewellery on Ebay and I found two items for really cheap! The necklace cost only 1,35€ and the crown ring 3,15€ !!!

I also bought some items from Prisila. I wanted to have some voluminous Hime hair for a long time, so I bought a half-wig, a matching pony and curly hair extensions. I'm so happy the color fits perfectly with my real hair! Prisila has a big selection and it is hard to choose the right items, but I read that Himena once recommened a specific half-wig in a magazin, so I bought that one!

Aaand finally my last new item, Harald Glööckler has again a small make-up collection at Rossmann, so I bought a lipgloss there. The package looks so deluxe, right? :D

Haha now I'm totally broke but happy ☆*･゜ﾟ･*\(^O^)/*･゜ﾟ･*☆

Shopping Time: Princess stuff // Hime hair + make up

Hello my dears!

First, the give-away is now closed, I will announce the winner in my next post ^_^

In January I ordered a some new princess items and finally everything arrived! Also I went shopping during winter sale and I got some cute princess accessoires! I really fell in love with Hime Lolita and now I have a full outfit and can't wait for spring to wear it!

First I got my dream dress "Lady Rose" from Angelic Pretty <3 In my eyes it is the most wonderful dress Angelic Pretty ever made, because you feel like a real princess in it!

I like the back of the dress the most, the ruffles are made from rose lace!

Then I finally found some Hime Lolita shoes! It's hard for me to find nice shoes in my size because my feet are too big for asian shoes :(

And my "Rose last note" hat from Angelic Pretty!

A stock picture where you can see the details better.

My new jewellery, the bracelet is from New Yorker, everything else from Accessorize.

Now with my new items I can be a rose princess from head to toe xD

I also want to show you some Hime hairstyle and make-up attempts, what do you think about it?

The first one: (I did this around 3 a.m. because I couldn't sleep xD So please excuse the bad photo quality ^^'')

The second one:

I hope you like it!
