Has anyone bought bloomers from cmloli?
The page has custom or 'free' size, but It doesn't state how big free size actually is.

I'm bit confused by this. The description is a link leading me back to the BoBon21 store so is this their 11.11 sale or is this just some random reseller?

>>7178255 in the last thread mentioned getting hit by customs.

But you seem to be in the US? If so, mind sharing what was in your order/how you shipped?

Hi I've been looking for mens plaid pants or tartan pants in red but I've had little luck with what I've found, I've been using these search terms 裤子格子男装 and 男装苏格兰格子裤子.

Where could I find an outfit like this?
I always worry that with blouses like that, it'll be sheer, what do you wear under? Just a white bra and hope for the best?
I've been dying to start dressing like this, but I can't help but worry about the clothes being too thin/sheer/cheap.
Any guidance is much appreicated.

>>7179607
Did you try looking at the dictionary? There's loads of search terms that you can use for this type of style. Try searching "liz lisa" since that brand does mostly this style of clothing. For sheer blouses I wear these kinds of camisoles also by liz lisa.

>>7179653
Dropped pic

>>7179607
With the influx of chiffon tops this past year I'm surprised you haven't picked up on most girls wearing camisoles and the daring ones wearing a bra or bandeau. Search for jumper skirt/overall skirt in the dictionary.

Posted this late in the last thread, gonna try again.

Im finding on the 11.11 tab some items marked down at like .20 Y. This cant be correct.
Can anyone clarify?

Examples:

*The translation to this one says last hour. This is been like this for over a day now.

http://shpure.taobao.com/

anyone ordered from this shop before? They sell a lot of replica cardigans, pic related.

Has anyone found anything worth getting for the 11/11 sales? I'm not seeing a whole lot to be honest.

>>7179837
Thanks, anon! I'm adding a cardigan or two to my order.

>>7179954
When you get them, can you post a review? I really want to know...

>>7179963
It'll be a month or two (waiting on my KL stuff), but then, yes.

>>7179966
that's alright, I wouldn't be ordering for a bit anyway.

Is it too late to order the Krad Lanrete jellyfish OP? If not, why are there two prices listed on the page for the same dress?

>>7179653
I'm sorry I just really have no clue what to search haha. I kind of want this style for formal event wear (job interviews, funerals, family parties, ect) not everyday.
>>7179706
Well I mean, I do wear some sheer blouses with a tank top under/bandeau, but with the style I pictured I feel like its too formal for that. (by tanktop I mean your standard stretcy black/white ones, nothing fancy like a camisole.)

Thank you both for your help :) If anyone can reccomend a liz lisa shop, that'd be great too, but for now I search.

>>7180114
Here's were I get most of my Liz Lisa replicas:
>http://vivid.taobao.com/
>http://hellochild.taobao.com/
>http://angelcat1225.taobao.com/
Vivid has the best quality and has sales every now and then.

>>7180077
There will be another batch next year. You are too late for the first batch.

Without looking at the link because lazy, the two prices probably are the reserve price and the "full" price from not preordering (that is, if they have any in stock after sending the rest of the orders out).

>>7180129
oh gosh Vivids sale is super confusing, is it a buy 3+ items and you get a higher discount for each item?

>>7180114
I've seen girls wear tops like those with tank tops (I assumed camisole was interchangeable with tank tops. I guess not.) underneath for business casual events. But if you're going for job interviews you should be in your standard business formal suit jacket, skirt or slacks and button down shirt anyway.

>>7180150
>standard business formal suit jacket
oh gosh. that's true, do you think taobao has some somewhere that aren't all kawaii-d up?
I have a ton of searching to do before 11.11 haha

>>7180159
if you spend enough time on there, you'll eventually find some but imo it's better to buy those in person so you can get it to fit you better and look clean and sharp.

>>7180130

Oh cool. I saw that they take custom orders during reservation. I have big boobs, so, would it be possible for me to request a custom size then?

>>7180146
yes.
ie. for 70% off items you have to buy 6 items in the same category to get full 70% off
But if you buy less than 6 you still get some off but not the full discount.

Also, can someone recommend me a store similar to ruis collection?

What the fuck, ALL stores have a discount on that day?!?!
I already ordered shit a few days ago

>>7180003
I have this blouse and it's pretty nice. The construction and materials are decent at best, as I had to reinforce the top buttonholes a bit, but it looks nice and I think it can be dressed down as more casual wear if you don't wear the flared sleeves with it.
I actually have their winter coat too but have yet to wear it out, so I'm curious about your review of it.

>>7179607
I have some blouses that are a bit more sheer than that and I prefer just to wear nipple petals underneath rather than a bra, camisole or vest (British term, not sure what the American term would be). I'm flat chested, though, so no bra is okay for me. The problem I have with vests and camisoles is that they're borders can show from underneath the shirt. I've only tried white under white blouses, though, rather than skin coloured under white, so that might be the problem.

>>7180291
Not all, just some. I'm not really buying anything since no Lolita shops I know of are taking part.

>>7180258
Is it only the items in the "Full 6 3 fold area"? What's the "Least 6 8 fold zone"?

Does anyone know which shop these are from? I've seen them on taobao before now but forgot to bookmark the page. I tried a reverse image search and just came out with tumblr pages with no source.

>>7180572
I just stumbled upon these the other day.

>>7180258
Is this sale going on now because I see "Event Date: 2013-11-03 20:00:00 - 2013-11-10 20:00:00" so it ends before 11.11?

>>7180574
Thank you!

So I placed my first order with TBR. I'm up to the point of order where they contact the seller for availability. One of the sellers has been unresponsive, but I have ordered from the seller in the past and everything was fine... so... Does this mean TBR is unwilling/unable to order the item? I don't think any other store sells the item. :/

I just paid for my first ever order. Man, it's so easy to get carried away.

I expect the shipping will be rather brutal.

recently received the dear celine little prince vest if anyone wants a review....they've got it up again now in brown (i got the gray already).

>>7180643
They can be slow if you don't pay and message them right away. I recommend talking with one of them (especially Sydney), if you can pay right away they'll usually have everything confirmed and paid for within 30-60 minutes

>>7180733
A review would be great! I'm in the market for a nice vest.

>>7180648
Link on the skater skirt? I know these are everywhere, i'm just curious what you paid/.

Anyone have any recommendations for stores that sell patterned tights besides Daruma?

Can anyone who owns one of Infanta's chiffon shirts tell me about the fabric quality/stock photo accuracy? In particular, I want to know whether the colors are accurate and if the fabric drapes nicely.

>>7180822
http://shop102379779.taobao.com/
I got a bunch from this shop? (incl a bunch of the popular ones) They also have a lot of cute socks. I haven't gotten them yet, but I'm assuming they're similar quality to everywhere else?

Somebody needs to make a mail thread for November. But this is what I got in my latest taobao order thru tbtrends. My favorite is the devil dress~

>>7180258
same catagory as in like skirts, shirts, ect or same catagory as in the catagory for the sale?

>>7180999
Could you review/post pics of everything? Haha, especially the blouse and dress!

>>7180999
How is the dress? I was looking at maybe getting it but I'm always iffy about lace-heavy dresses... Pics in better lighting would be nice.

>>7180999
Could I bug you for a review of the blouse? I'm planning on ordering a few from there since they're the cheapest by far I've seen, but I am curious about the quality.

>>7180794

I was also tempted by the houndstooth version, but says it's quite thin so I don't want to more buy it with winter on the doorstep.

>>7180999
sauce on blouse? I can't make out the URL...

>>7181043
it's cmloli.taobao.com

Current order. Still looking for more cute sweaters, winter clothes, and a pair of slippers. for some reason i cant find things i like. Also, the coat is a maybe. There are no other photos or reviews, but i really like it, so i'm not sure yet.

>>7180643
>>7180737
They haven't given me the option to pay yet. Right now they're still confirming the availability of the items.

The store in question is xman7 or something like that. Can TBR order the item even if the store won't confirm the availability? I mean, if the item is still listed for sale on TB it should be available, right?

I need it in my life. Thanks!

Could someone tell more about how 11/11 sales work?

>>7181291
I'm kind of sick of seeing this question so I'm going to try and field it as well as humanely possible. I'm sure people will still ask.

The sale is only on the day of 11.11, you will probably have to tell your shopping service you want your order bought on that day. The sale will only count if the items are bought that day.

When you search right now, there's a tab near the top which you can click to show only 11.11 sale items. Not all items on taobao are on sale, only certain shops are participating and this tab is a good way to show which. I think the sales range a little, but are usually advertised as 50% off.

>>7180733
>>7180741
i bought the XL grey vest. i have a 94cm bust, and the XL fits perfectly. i wouldn't recommend this for over 94cm though, as it's almost starting to pull at the armscye on me. the fabric is a thin wool-blend tweed and the vest is fully lined. the lapels and fake pocket flaps are cotton velvet. the flaps have nice cotton lace and the lapels are edged in a twisted trim that is a teeny bit sparkly, but barely noticeable. the back has corset lacing at the waist (a nice satin ribbon) and easily cinches in any extra fabric. i really like it....so much so that i just ordered it in brown! i'm not really into loli, but this can easily be worn as officewear, also you can layer a suit jacket over it and not get super warm, as the fabric is not thick.

hope this helps! also i've been using tbtrends and i really like their service!

>>7180648
it looks like you bought everything from the same 3 stores, can you link to them please? can't reaad the watermarks.

Can anyone help me find a bag like this? Or things like this sort of? I searched skull bag, skull purse, but I can't find any thing of the sorts

Tops: http://mi-love.taobao.com/

Dresses, skirt, shorts: http://shop34283080.taobao.com/

Bags: http://i-sos.taobao.com/

They have so many bags for less than half price right now! Act fast if you can.

And last but not least, I threw in wool socks for my baby bro: http://meikale.taobao.com (they have cute ladies' socks too though, lol)

>>7181601
How on earth are you navigating the bag shop? The only thing i can get is their giant header.

>>7180569
>>7181005
It's categories as in 'full 6 3 fold' 'full 6 5 fold' 'full 6 8 fold'
3 fold is 70% off
5 fold is 50% off
8 fold is 20% off

>>7181607
how many items do you need to purchase to get the discount per "fold"? sorry for all the questions, this is just genuinely confusing for me

>>7181613
oh wait it's six items right? it's just different discounts because some the "8 fold" are new products so they can't discount much?

>>7181605
I can click on stuff in the giant header? And there's links up top to categories.

Maybe it's just your browser, but I'll save you the time, here's the link the link for all products: http://i-sos.taobao.com/search.htm?spm=a1z10.1.0.0.uvg4SP&search=y

Hopefully that works?

>>7181642
Aah thats way better, thanks much!

>>7181616
yep, have to be 6 items from the same, I guess, 'fold' category, though. And yes 8 folds tend to be newer items. That's just the pre 11.11 sale, if you wait it to 11.11 other new items *might* go on sale.

>>7181112
Sauce for the grey sweater with skulls?

Does anyone know where I could find Saber's casual clothes from Fate/Stay Night, or what I could search to find it?
Pic related.

I'm looking for an SS recommendation!

I was told that a maid cosplay shop I like actually does commissions, but when I asked my SS, they said no. I was also told that they don't like to deal with commissions.

Does anyone know any Taobao agents that are willing to talk with a commissioner?

>>7181907
Which maid cosplay shop?

> This is relevant to my interests.

>>7181907

Not a full-on commission, but TBS were willing to ask 69th department to customise a blouse for me (take the neckline of one, sleeves of another and torso design of a third). Maybe send an email Susan's way and ask her?

Really jumbled up my order after I saw the R-series Anniversary print was the second payment page and not the reserve. Hope my SS will grant my request of ordering on 11.11

>>7181244
Ugh, that mug is so damn cute. I can imagine how funny it would be to take off it's head to take a drink.

>>7181965
Oh, that's interesting. Can you let us know if 69th accept your commission?

>>7181959
Here you go anon
http://lalamaid.taobao.com/

>>7181965
Thanks! I'll try that!

>>7181995

They did, i'm referring to an order from a few months ago.

I first asked Dollypoddle (before all that baby shit went down) and she said they had told her no custom alterations. I was talking to Meko about Dear Celine's blouses, and the topic come up again. She asked them and they said they'd do it for me. I had to pay a little extra for the longer sleeves.

I don't know if Dolly was lying or 69th are erratic. I did email 69th myself, but they never got back to me, hence having to use a SS.

But yes, Meko was happy to get custom alteration done for me. Meko's in charge of their store envy now though, and you can't get her as an agent anymore(her own words to me).

>>7181838
If you need to search for cosplay, you can add "cos" after the character name.

In your case, it was sufficient to search "Saber cos" but sometimes you might not get results for their English name, in which case you go to Wikipedia, look up the series, and translate the series title or character name to Chinese (wikipedia has language tabs on the left).

Pic related, one of the several items from the first page of results.

BTW, I knew all this just from reading the sticky, so I suggest you check it out.

i think miss point has a set of clothes inspired by saber, but it's not cosplay

>>7181965
how did your custom items from 69th department turn out? did you order in custom size too?

That's really god damn cute. I might just buy that to wear.

My most recent order came in a few days ago, let me know if you want a review of anything.

>>7182063
Clock bag review with photos please. How much can it hold, is it sturdy, does ithave pockets inside

Just paid for this small but expensive order. The shoes are custom made of real leather and wood sole, dresses are also custom made, so I hope they are worth it.

>>7182063
Cute order, Anon!

>>7182066
I'd say it's about a foot in diameter, it has enough room to hold your phone, wallet, possibly a compact or some other things in it, but I wouldn't personally use it as an every day purse.

It was one pocket, it's fairly wide and deep but seems to be slightly flimsy. The zipper is tough and zips and unzips without issue.

I took a picture of the back too since it's worth mentioning that it's only printed on one side. It's probably not real leather, given what I paid for it, but it feels soft and supple, unlike most pleather which is kind of plastic-y. The straps are thick and adjustable, I think they'll hold up well over time.

>>7182063

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=35099597605
It's not especially thick, better suited for crisp fall or spring days than winter unless you layered it, but it's cute and accurate to the picture. Be aware that it doesn't have a peter pan collar, that's a blouse that the model is wearing underneath.

>>7182063
The maroon and black dresses, please! I would love pictures if you have them, too.

>>7182092
That's perfect; I was looking for some cute sweaters/cardigans to layer under my winter coats. Thanks,anon!

>>7182044

I didn't get the size customised, I just went with standard sizing. I'm not sure if they do custom sizing, sorry.

Their blouses are quite nice, and they incorporated the alterations well (i.e. they don't look Frankenstein-ish). The ones they customised for me were chiffon. I have since ordered a few more blouses from them, as their chiffon is nice and light for wearing under JSKs. Their stock images make the chiffon look a bit less see-through than it actually is. It's thinner and more smooth than the chiffon DC likes to use, which is thicker but has a slight rough texture to it.

Before anyone asks for photos, i'm afraid i'm not living at home atm.

Does anyone know if YoyBuy will buy the items on 11/11? Does anyone know of some shopping services that definitely will?

>>7182174
I've found Yoybuy to be very fast and, providing the seller is available, they've always bought my items on the same day I order. They have a guide on their website that basically says if you want the item bought on the 11th, to make the order and say 'Please only buy on 11/11' or something. I'd put your order(s) in on the 9th because of China's timezone.

I'm not sure if the shoe store does oversizes, all I know is that they accept custom colors (but maybe you can ask them via your SS).

>>7182102
The maroon and black dresses are much better quality than I normally expect from taobao, they've got a good weight and thickness to them and they're long enough for the look I'm going for (I'm 5'1" for reference), they also come in some larger sizes for my fat American blob body haha. I'll add some pictures in a minute but they're very true to the stock photos. The lace sleeves/collar on the maroon dress is a very soft, cotton lace.
>>7182103
No problem :)
>>7182111
They're not from daruma, I got them here: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=26637144943
I'm short but I also have some thunder thighs so I know the feeling. They fit fine, a little trouble climbing Mt Assmore but I have a lot of booty so that's acceptable. The print is very clean and crisp, it stretches a liiiiittle bit when worn but it doesn't blur like some printed tights I own. One thing of note is that it does say Verum by Grimoire on them even though I obviously did not get them from Grimoire, so if that bothers you... The black and white dress was a little bit shorter than I was expecting (I was thinking it'd be knee-length, it's more like mid-thigh) and the waistband is a little low on me, like an inch below my natural waist, but it's very cute and true to photos otherwise, fits like a dream and if you have that weird violin shape to your hips like I do, the stripes kind of break that up.
>>7182133
It's a nice thick sweater with knitted flowers, very cute and good for winter with some layers underneath. It's a flattering fit, too.
>>7182178
>>7182264
>>7182285
The ship dress is made of a slippery fabric, it's a very flattering cut and the color is a little more saturated in person, but not in an obnoxious highlighter-blue way. I felt pretty cute when I wore it and got lots of compliments! Link: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=26386184607
Also no one asked for it but since it's my only semi-negative review I'm gonna post anyways, the grey dress/bolero set was kind of flimsy (ctd)

>>7182328
(ctd) one of the straps snapped off really easily while I was putting it on, I'll have to reattach it and possibly reinforce the other one. Also, the bolero is unlined and kind of thin. It's cute for layering things and the set looks better split I think, but it's not gonna provide any warmth.

>tfw I can't order anything from taobao for months
>tfw you're ordering my sweet dear Judgement Day OP

could you guys help with with some wording/ suggest some stores for large (talking 11-12 US Mens) fuzzy slippers?

I am super annoyed at what's in - or, actually, what's NOT in - my first order. The major things I wanted to get were some BDSM stuff, a jacket, stockings, a bag, and a tail. I also threw on some super cheap tees. Well the store with the bondage gear stopped carrying anything other than vibrators, the jacket seller is MIA, and the tees are sold out. So my order went from medium-shitty to full on shitty small order status.

Anyway... I want a persistent SS for my second order, one that will order the jacket even if the seller isn't the quickest at communicating. Suggestions? For reference, TBR gave it a day before they said the seller was unresponsive.

Has anyone used Pruany recently? They used to be my favorite SS until I switched to Bhiner, but I'm starting to dislike their service and fees.

does anyone know a shop with stockings or fake thigh high stocking that might have something similar to this?
generally ripped stockings/leggings

>>7182927
I've never actually ordered something from them, but recently i tried to, and they cleared my order three separate times. I ended up saying 'fuck it' and just going back to yoybuy for a simpler system and paying slightly more in fees.

Did something happen with Taobaoring? Does it have a fake copy website?

I used Taobaoring.com but there is the other address TBring.com.

In some pictures I've seen of the Verum blanc/noir replica tights they seem to have a very pink cast, are yours pinkish or are they a true cream like the originals?

Hoping to find some good cheap stores for thick tights and long sleeved stuff? any favorites?

>>7182927
I've used them once, have an order that I'm about to pay shipping for atm, and am planning an 11.11 order with them. The first time I used them they were very quick and communicative. The only downside was that I order a lot of Liz Lisa replicas every time I make a Taobao order so I asked them to remove the tags so customs wouldn't seize anything and they said "ok". But when my package arrived everything had it's tag still. Luckily nothing was taken but this time I'm going to ask for pictures of the removed tags before shipping.

Sauce on the lacy turtlenecks? They look like they'd be perfect for a coord of mine.

>>7183203
herp, nvm, I saw that you replied.

Possibly dumb question, but if I'm currently living in Japan, am I still able to use TaobaoSpree or other English Shopping Services? I'd rather not have to use my very bad Japanese skill to explain what I want and when I want it by.

>>7181112
sauce on totoro things?

>>7183220
I'm not at my computer, but it's in the same shop as the lucky cat mug I posted, in the card section.

>>7182801
Did you message TBR or add a note asking them to wait a good amount of days? I use YoyBuy and they waited a few days before cancelling one of my orders, if that's what you want.

>>7183207
I'm assuming that you could? Because they ship internationally, so I don't see why they wouldn't to Japan.

>>7182577
How much was your shipping?

Emailed TBT yesterday requesting pictures. They said my order's getting to their office tomorrow, cannot wait! Shipping is probably going to be killer though.

How much can I expect to pay for Shipping? I'm really excited about my order but I don't want to pay more than my total for shipping.

>>7183569
You can ask your SS to estimate it for you. In the previous thread people paid anywhere from 20 to 180 (shoes and heavy coats)

>>7183579
Thank you, god.

>>7183569
I usually buy about 4kg-5kgs of goods and my shipping+whatever usually adds up to $80 SAL to Canada

also idk what search term for skull you were using, but I tried a few different characters, and I think 髅包 for skull purse is probably your best bet (it gets the most results out of all the other variations)

>>7183781
I hate when people think taobao is soooo cheap once you count the shipping in you're playing ALOT for items most have no brand or are fakes. Or not nearly worth that much.

Use ebay or aliexpress.
Yes aliexpress works and isn't a scammer site, has the same site taobao has only with free shipping on most stuff.

>>7183842
While normally i agree with that sentiment, in my case my order is 70% sponsored by my mother for my birthday. I usually do ebay for taobao items for myself, plus if i were to buy most of this stuff in a store i would be paying double.

>>7182479
it says "dimensions: 635 × 372," which I'm guessing are in mm

it's easy to find a lot of torn tights and leggings if you search 撕打底裤 and 撕褲襪 / 撕丝袜
if you want something for cosplay purposes, it gets a lot trickier. there isn't much dota cosplay stuff on taobao from what I've seen

Could someone please provide me with the translation to Kill La Kill?

Anyone know where I can find lolita/fairy kei salopettes? I need one for an upcoming con but I can't figure out the keywords at all..
Pic related, something like that would be great!

>>7183795

Thankssssss

>>7183364
I told them try to contact again but they just said the seller was unresponsive... I'll ask yoybuy if they can get the jacket, then place another order with them.

>>7183842
True but some of the things I order I literally cannot get anywhere else. If I bought Liz Lisa replicas from eBay instead of Taobao, I'd be paying an extra $50 per item since they price them as authentic and that's without shipping. And there's just a lot of generally cute and alternative fashion items that you can't even find overpriced on Storenvy.

>>7183979
Because there is no own keyword for this.

Also:
http://mianyangrouchuanguo.taobao.com/

>>7183979
salopettes are called 背带裙

>>7183865
Ive been looking for dota stuff for ages :/

>>7184023
If YoyBuy works out for you, you can always send the stuff from one warehouse to the other. YoyBuy also has a 'Your Chinese address' service. I also think they add their commission on the second payment rather than first so you can make orders immediately and not wait for your order to accumulate to avoid the minimum charge.

>>7183932
did you try searching the english name
did you even try

>>7183842
>>7184044
if you're buying mostly mainstream asian fashion, then yeah, taobao is kind of a waste. I use dresslink a lot for generic stuff that can be found in most big tmalls on taobao (though their shipping rates are comparable to buying on tb anyhow), but knockoffs and lolita in particular you can't really justify buying on storenvy at those nasty inflated prices. that and buying in bulk can be more economical overall if you're smart about sales and shit

>>7183842
Speaking of aliexpress, can anybody find Miss Point on aliexpress, or that mori store (might have been Cawaii?) Thanks in advance!

>>7182577
where is everybody getting those cute cat/bear/bunny pantyhose ?

>>7184090
背带裙 is also the term for JSKs.

>>7184699
just search the chinese terms for "cat tights" and you'll find all of them pretty easily. they're probably the most popular item on taobao and storenvy right now, super easy to find

>>7184869
the term in the dictionary is "lolita背心裙," though honestly that doesn't really fit the bill either. what OP originally wanted is probably closer to 背带裙, minus maybe the lolita part, which will get you JUST suspender skirts. "背带裙 lolita" gets a bit of everything, possibly due to taobao's tagging method

>>7183979
I did find this, and while it looks kind of awkward with the top half, it's pink and frilly at least

Seconding. The star tights are adorable!

has anyone actually bought doujin from taobao? obviously they're not in english, but is it worth it? A lot of them seem to be deposit, has anyone done that before? What's the 'right' price?

There's a shop that's releasing an item I want today and I expect it to sell out in under a day. Anyone have recommendations for a shopping service that's been responding quickly? Or one that will try and buy the item at a certain time?

Any shops that sell long chiffon petticoats similar to Victorian Maiden?

Shops that sell tops like this or a keyword for it?

>>7185908
yoybuy is always really fast, that's why I use them.

I don't know if this question has already been answered, but where is Taobaospree located? As in I-want-to-calculate-the-domestic-shipping-fees.

Thank you!

Hey guys, I know some of you were after a review of some lolita shoes from the last thread so here goes:

Shoe Link: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=19807929912&spm=2014.21604996.0.0

So these shoes are rather cute and versatile but the stolen Dream V stock pics had me a little worried. The pictures further down the listing are pretty accurate representations of the product so I didn't get any nasty surprises when I opened my box.

The page says to size up so I ordered a size 40. Normally, a size 39 is very comfortable on me and allows room to wiggle even if I'm wearing thicker lolita socks. These shoes are pretty damn small though so even a size 40 is tight.
Luckily(?) these shoes are rather soft so I anticipate that they'll naturally stretch a little bit after a few more wears. The downside of their softness is that they're going to mark easily. I haven't had any accidents with them yet but I feel like one will happen soon. The area around the buckle also feels very thin and flimsy. I'm afraid I'll accidentally rip the pleather trying to unbuckle them.

There's no dripping glue or peeling of the sole so far but only time will tell if they hold up.

Overall the shoes are rather cute. They're neither absolutely amazing nor absolutely horrendous but I probs wouldn't buy them again. It would be cheaper and easier to get shoes through Bodyline but they don't stock a style that is 100% like this.

>>7186116
I usually put money onto the account, it works pretty well because then if there's any overage (because you picked a cheaper option) they just drop it back onto your account and you can put it towards shipping/reordering an item that went out of stock etc

Whoever recommended yoybuy to me, I thank you. They beat TBR hands down in helpfulness, ease and speed of the order process, and promptness. I don't mind having to check their online messages either. And their warehouse storage policy is amazing. I'm definitely going to add more stuff to my order.

And, unrelated, my bank people were delightful and helpful when I called to get them to authorize alipay.

>>7182651
>>7185538

>>7186074
the term is 背心 (vest) or 吊带背心 (camisole), but it's tricky finding tops and not JSKs (and finding decent-looking loli/non-ita/non-punk ones is kind of difficult as well)

Can someone help me find these little heat packs that you snap to heat? They're supposed to be re-usable and release sodium acetate into whatever the water-like substance is.

I tried 冷熱敷袋

I want to buy this MM but Im not sure which size should I purchase with a 74 waist... M? L?

If you get this anon, can you please do a review? I have the original, and want to see how it stands in comparison. Thinking about getting a replica in another style from the same shop.

All of this plus a long bell-shaped petti from CP just came in. If anyone wants me to do a review, let me know.

>>7186614
how much did all that cost

>>7186614
Fake Vivienne westwood earrings always fall apart after the first wear....unless it's a very good fake.

>>7186631
Quite a lot due Pruany misunderstanding that I wanted my package marked as a gift instead of marked down. Customs hit me with a fucking $150 fee. I guess I spent around $220-250 on the goods.

Let's hope these are good fakes then.

Well I think I will end up risking it and buying a dress from this shop:

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w1004-2165340319.1.MB5wek&id=14528252887

Nobody has ever bought something from this shop? Some girls from a fb group are ordering so I will join them...

But is this seriously Milanoo? I wont buy if it is. But idk how to tell.

how long should packages usually stay in US customs? I got the "inbound into customs" message on the usps site 11 days ago.

>>7187298
Not too long. Longest I've had was 14 days. Sometimes USPS doesn't end up updating until they actually attempt to deliver to your door. Depends on your part of the US.

>>7187293
read the reviews, there are a couple with pictures attached that at least show you the overall look if not the details

>>7187293
I've seen tha dress on a number of taobao shops. The skirt is always too short, even on the Chinese girls in the reviews, and the color is over saturated and not classic at all. I saw one picture that just looked so incredibly sad, the fabric looked like a shiny wrinkly piece of shit. I'd advise you to avoid that particular replica. I'm sad because I want that dress too but it's probably best to save for the real thing.

>>7186720
Oo I've been wanting to order some Liz Lisa too. Can you update back on whether any items get seized? I really want to order some things but I'm afraid since I hear this particular brand has been heavily watched in the past.

>>7187493
oh dear... its sad. I wish it could be easier to find the original one.

>>7186844
It is Milanoo, it even uses the same crappy photos with the editted floral background at some of the stolen photos.

>>7187493
Extremely short.

>>7187293

Does anyone know where I could find a Lisa Lisa cosplay, or what to search to find one? Searching just that only gets me Liz Lisa.

>>7187536
eeeurgh oh man that cheapass fabric

>>7187196
I think I'd phrase it more like this, but maybe it's a personal thing:
你能寄到美国吗?我想要从你买。

>>7187539
only one of them comes with a pic, and it's a pretty sorry sight

This is my fifth Taobao order with Liz Lisa items and I've never gotten anything seized. I always ask my shopping service to remove the tags (although Pruany didn't last time) before they send it out. Also I noticed that Vivid doesn't put tags on their clothing so I usually try and stick with them when it comes to Liz Lisa. That and they have amazing quality replicas, some better than my authentic LL.

>>7188214
Here's the necklace (it's a set):

Hey. I checked the FAQ but it did not quite answer my question, so here it goes:

I want a single dress from Infanta. Should I try to find more stuff I don't really need or want to make it cheaper/worth it?

Thanks.

Hey guys, I really liek this bag but the seller has no dimensions and barely any photos. How likely is it that the seller is unreliable?
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=17568429302

Also, another seller has a different bag that seems to have the same pattern, but it looks much lighter on his photos. Which one do you think is closer to the truth? Or better yet, how would I go about finding it out for myself?
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.160.cjHqKV&id=35396917813

>>7188561
Yes? Because the shipping is what hits hardest with Taobao orders, so it would be more beneficial to spread that same shipping cost over a larger number of items (so each item would have a lesser individual cost).

Does anyone know search term for something like letters? I had a dream about some awesome tights with letters on them (like letters of the alphabet) and now I am determined to find a pair like them.

Anyone ever bought lingerie on Taobao?

Yes, what do you need?

>>7188685
Sorry, should have said. Any good stores to look at while I sort through them all?

>>7188695
several of my lady friends have bought bra/panty sets as well as 'sex' lingere, and I'd reccommend looking at the sets - some of them definitely have the 'sexy' look and the quality tends to be very good, whereas the quality of the sex stuff was godawful (very flimsy, nasty scratchy lace/mesh). The bra/panty sets tend to only be 4-7$. If you're interested in teddys and things like that, I'd look in the 10$ or so range, as tempting as the 2$ stuff might be. Sometimes the underwear set stores have a teddy/negligee section, which would be better quality.

Found a Liz Lisa replica store that is having a big 11.11 sale still. I am too tall for all the stuff but maybe some of you gals can enjoy it.

friend you could have read like the last couple posts at least. everyone is talking about that exact store.

>>7188715
Welp, I feel like a dick. Carry on.

>>7188561
Depending on the dress, it might just be better to order it from Clobba

>>7188638
Can't help you on the search term, but I know House of Holland makes pic related.

>>7188810
Thanks, anon. Maybe I should get into designing it myself, hah.

>>7188603
the second seller seems like a really new store, whereas the first one has been around a bit longer (but this also means they have some negative reviews). I did some searching and found other (better-ranking) stores selling the pictured bag, but all of them were using the same stolen reference images, and I don't think any of them had dimensions or reviews

if you want to see other refs of that bag at least, here's another store

the search term I used was 字丝袜

My current taobao order. Purple dots means that it's not for me. Green means that they have already been bought. Shipping is going to be a pain in the arse. Is there even a chance that I'll be able to get my package for the holidays?

Okay, I have a bit of a problem. I just got my package from my SS and 7 items aren't in there, not just little things either. Before they shipped, I requested a photo of all of my stuff together, and these same 7 items were not in the photo, and when I inquired about it, they just told me in Engrish that everything had arrived,- which is what the status on everything said- and repeated that they gave me a photo. I left it at that and just figured they left the stuff out of the photo by accident.

This is my second time using this SS and the first time went perfectly. I'm not sure what to do now. Any help would be really appreciated.

>>7189740
Did you specifically say "Excuse me, I don't see ___, ____, ___ and ___. Where are they?"
Because that'd be the first thing I'd ask.

>>7189746
Yeah, when they showed me the photo I requested and I asked about the items that were not visible, they responded with "All of goods arrive, I give you photos!"

I messaged them two days ago about the items not in my package, but no response yet.

>>7189759
I hate when they try to avoid the situation.
I'd email them again right now asking about it. I've learned waiting for a response is not a good idea, and after a day I'd email them again.

I feel like most of you have the galaxy skirt from Stars Rainbows, so dish. How does the print hold up? How easy is it to wear matching/style-wise? General complaints, etc.

>http://shpure.taobao.com/
Just so you know, some of these are available as real ones for similar prices on mbok and y!a... Particularly the dangly strawberry one. Dunno for sure about the rest tho

I'm on the fence about pic related. Has anyone bought anything with something similar to whatever is going with that skirt part?

>>7189897
Print is slightly pixely. I don't wear it without the top so I dunno how to match it with other stuff.

The pleats stay on well even after washing. The waist was loose on me but that's just my measurements.

I have pics here:

If you grab the url of the pictures, you can look at a slightly bigger version of the pics showing on the blog.

Anyone know what wig wefts are called in Chinese? I need some for my Ibuki cosplay.

Thanks so much, anon! From your link to the other bag seller I figured out the search terms and found a picture review that showed the straps torn clean out after 3 uses.

anyone know if you can get bento boxes on taobao?

>>7189759
What service is it? I would email them again, mention that you had asked about this before they shipped too.
That really sucks, Anon, I hope it all works out.

>>7189897
Holds up well. I have washed mine multiple times. The construction is solid. The fabric isn't lux but it's not crappy or itchy. I have the blue version and the pattern is not noticeably pixely when you wear it.
Overall everything I have seen from Stars Rainbow in person has been really well constructed.

>>7190065
These exist too. I know they're bootlegs (pretty sure the other ones posted are as well) but damn if they aren't cute.

>>7189740
If you used PayPal, I'd recommend you open a case. That sounds really bad, what SS did you use?

>>7190096
Yes, you can.

Is there a good way to look for engrish?
I want some fun engrish stuff.

Does anyone know the word for light/medium twill? I'm looking for some mint green fabric to make a lolita dress and the word google translate gave me didn't bring up many results, and the term in the dictionary for thick cotton and linen seems to bring up much more linen-type fabric.
Also, what about loose doll hair for re-rooting dolls?

>>7188531
I usually try and stick with the same stores since I know about their quality and such. >>7180129 was my post earlier in this thread, but these are the main stores I use. I'd recommend Vivid first, then Angelcat, and Hellochild as a last resort if you can't find a particular item since they tend to overprice but have okay quality.

>>7190386
honestly i' think it comes up under cotton. If I were you, I'd go through cotton and eyeball it for thickness/texture. Most lolita dresses are just a cotton anyways, so if you ended up with something a little thinner than expected it wouldn't be a disaster?

Personally, I wouldn't want to sew something like that with twill - its strength is in how sharply it holds an ironed edge and how it keeps its shape, any tailoring like darts usually ends up looking bulky and boxy; and it doesn't have the drape needed for dresses. (not that I'm assuming you don't know anything, if you're an experienced seamstress you know what you're doing and certainly go with your vision)

>>7190386
What about cute light sweater fabric? It doesn't have to be just like the picture, but something I can make a similar sweater out of.
Has anyone ordered any good jersey fabric for cutsews and has the listing? I've found plenty of listings for random knit fabric, but it's hard to figure out what's good and what's going to look terrible.

autosagin', new thread over here >>7190874

>>7180999
They're still selling that dress? I thought it was sold out! I can't find it on the shop page.
