That mailbox is epic though

>>7344241
The sailor dress is cute, review when it arrives?

>>7347321
Sure! I'm still adding on to my order, so it might be a month or so before anything actually arrives. Especially with CNY and golden week happening.

Not super exciting but I'm waiting for this to arrive in the post for Sailor Neptune.

>>7347849
where is that from? it's lovely, I just want it for personal use.

>>7347895
I got it off eBay searching for 'brass hand mirror' or 'art nouveau hand mirror'. It pops up often enough, and there's a silver version too.

>>7347895
Not that anon, but they were replicas mass-produced in the 70s and 80s. Naoko based Neptune's on an antique mirror she had. If you search "art nouveau hand mirror" on ebay and etsy, you can find some for between $30 and $90, depending on shipping.

Have another auction ending tonight and one ending tomorrow. Then I just have to wait until it's all at the SS and have it shipped. Trying to make good on my goal for the year of getting shoes/accessories/blouses to fill in gaps in my wardrobe, rather than buying more main pieces. Doing okay apart from that skirt. I ordered the OP in October, so it doesn't really count.

My JeJ re-release jesus dress has finally been shipped!

>>7348603
Whoa, what's E3?

I hope you don't feel offended if other people decide to adopt your method of displaying items you bought , it makes it so much easier to ask what items they want to know about!

Having a bit of drama with some of my current purchases.

Stuff marked red has gone MIA. I though it was with my SS but they're not even sure if the mbok seller sent them or not.

The bag is being sent back because I was given the wrong one (the 2011 Royal Chocolate bag came instead.) Luckily return shipping costs + item cost is being covered.
I was a little tempted to ask for a partial refund instead but idk if that'll come across as rude. It means I won't have to mess about with postage though.

Latest arrivals minus the wristcuffs are all pretty neat (they're a weird shade of pink that makes me look sickly.) The shoes are pretty cute and I think they'll look good with Petit Patisserie.

>>7348603
C4 source? I love your hauls!

>>7348724
I can't remember the name. Alice and the Pirates Tassels KC or something? It's on Lolibrary if you look under the brand name and search for tassel. I bought it and the tent pochette to go with the enchantilly op.

And sure! I doubt I'm the first to do it at any rate.

>>7349601
From yosuke leche, but I bought them on auction so they may be hard to find. I can get you the style number when I'm on my computer (currently on the phone).

>>7349601
>>7349612
Style no: 26617 51
I haven't found any for sale other than that pair, but you can find photos/more info if you search yosuke 26617.

>>7349723
thanks!

Misfired originally! Oops

Got tracking yesterday morning, between countries as we speak.
Soon...

I bought a few other things from Lip Service (they have/had a sale for half off the site yesterday/today) but it's mainly not Lolita/kawaii related. I bought my fella a cheap vest and white pants for under 10 dollars thanks to the sale.

>>7350698
Of course I forgot to post an image of what I bought.

>>7350402
from re-release? Did you get it first or second round?

>>7350698
Shit, I wish I had money left. I love Lip Service, but they're usually sort of pricey

>>7348743
Updated mail pic.

The year of the blouse has begun.

>>7350702
Where are the plushes and the corset from?

>>7350702
Hello,
could you please list a link for the skirt? Thank you

>>7350971
!!! Link all the blouses please? Great taste!

>>7350971
I'm hoping the lady sloth blouse looks more gold then the pictures. It's like, you can't find a good gold blouse without it either just looking like a sparkly beige, or super fucking shiny like the AatP ones.

>>7350995
it's LIEF's new reserve. You should be able to find them by searching the brand on FB. Korean indie brand.

>>7350971
Link to navy jacket please

>>7350994
Thanks, anon. Here's the links for you:

1.http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/dreamv/item/514648/

2.http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/dreamv/item/514840/

3. Just head to Lady Sloth's Fb page, there should be the pre-order event on there (4chan isn't letting me link)

>>7350998
I think the model shots are really washed out tbh because the closeup looks to be far more gold in colour. Fingers crossed though.

>>7351009
Here you go (chances are it'll be really cheap looking irl but it's worth a shot):

>>7350971
Link to the skirt?? It's so cute!

I don't know if wigs count but I've ordered 3 that should arrive in early March or late February

>>7351035

>>7350708
First round of the rerelease, yeah.

>>7350714
I used to have that view on LipService too. I only occasionally looked at the website and was put off by the prices. But lately I've been paying attention to them. They had a site wide sale for half off on Cyber Monday and did it again for New Years and now this past week. I wonder if they always have sales? Otherwise... they are scaring me with the frequency of their "Half off sales". I hope they aren't going out of business.

SH Figuarts Mars just arrived today and so did my Tuxedo Mask/Batman shirt.

Now waiting for my gashapon set from Japan and a swatch of fabric from spoonflower.

Gotta love Btssb for fast shipping and email response especially with their outlet sale.

>>7351622
dropped pic

>>7351628
mmm the black one is so pretty. i was itching to get it but i think my bust is too large for it

>>7348603
Update on that order. Somehow, forgot I ordered Sailor Moon brooches until I got my shipping email. Whoops.

Lost one of the two auctions I was waiting on because I mistyped my max bid too. So now I just have to let things show up at the shopping service to request final shipping.

>>7351160
Where did you order the gashpon set from? I have been looking for a good place to buy them without resorting to J-list.

>>7353034
If Tumblr is right, they're only available on auctions now. It looks like the shops that took pre-order aren't stocking them at all? I can't find them on JList or CD Japan any more.

>>7353034

Curious, why did you not want to resort to Jlist? The price was excellent, and they had preorders open months ago. Looks like the listing is no longer available, so you're out of luck and will probably end up paying quite a bit more if you want them in the future.

Mine was shipped a few days ago, pretty excited!

>>7353034

>>7351160 poster here.

I ordered from jlist back in October.
Like >>7353078 and >>7353139 said the only place that you can get them now is auction.
No one seems to stock them at this time. They sold out in many if not all of the machines that had them in Japan. There were hour long wait lines too. Friking nuts but for the price and how nice they looked I can't blame people.
It's the first release of a cheaply priced brooch in over a decade, let alone a set of them.

I suggest trying for the die cast charm set now. Those might still be available to buy somewhere.

>>7353916
How much can I sell the locket gatchapon sets for? I pre-ordered like 10, will be delivered next week.

>>7348603
C2 and D3 please, theyre lovely!

>>7353952

I'd say try your luck at $70-80.
If that doesn't work try $60 but no lower

>>7356853
C2: Metamorphose Strawberry Cream Skirt (Special set version)
There's a couple of JSKs from the print up on mbok right now, but none in the green colourway lately.

D3: Enchantilly Phantom Night Babydoll OP
http://chantilly.shop-pro.jp/?mode=cate&cbid=1083535&csid=0&sort=n

Sadly, the OP has sold out since I last looked at the site. You might be able to get it in blue from Harajuku Hearts still. It's up on their site:
http://www.harajukuhearts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=87&products_id=1955&zenid=GhbVgcoI,oLZBSTjn,I7W0

>>7348603
A3 please, what a nice haul, so pretty!

>>7357212
A3: Yosuke Leche
There was another pair on Yahoo right now, size 24.5, but I can't find them so I guess they sold or were taken down? They may come back up.

Stock number is 2600061, but the Amazon and Rakuten listings I've found are sold out.

A whole bunch of stuff - things that have arrived are on the left, things in various stages of being ordered/in transit on the right. Also, I would recommend the underbust corset to everyone - it's the Josephine by Isabella Corsetry.

I'm really hoping Dear Lenore gets the shoes to me in at most two months... Lost in Sea OP and CP petti are kind of lost/having transit issues; hopefully Krad Lanrete and CP will contact me after CNY is good and over.

>>7358662
Where's the jacket in the bottom right hand corner from, anon?

>>7358918
Watch out with that petti, anon. I just got mine in the mail with my tbs order, and it's not as big/nice as my other cp petticoat.

Only tangentially related, but has a shopping service ever mailed anyone else's package out before they sent payment before?
I was waiting on the infanta dress and blouse to reach TBS but was also concerned about CNY, so my agent told me that they'd ship it out as soon as I paid the shipping. However, I never paid the shipping, and it still arrived the other day.

Mbok is ruining my life

>>7358956
Thanks for letting me know; I guess I could always just layer it with my Malco Modes if it's not poofy enough for my tastes.

>>7358929
It's one of the Metamorphose rider jackets...Not definitely mine yet though because I only emailed my SS about it today.

>>7359023
I don't know about that, I'd say it was making it awesome. I appreciate the meta dress, do you have an outfit planned for it?

no more buying things for awhile

>>7357212
>>7357220
Found them again! Here you are, anon:
http://page3.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c436943049

Mmmm ebay.

I finally got myself a 3ds. And a bunch of littler stuff.

>>7352927
are those shoes all queen bee?

>>7358918
where are your gold shoes from?

>>7362420
Dear Lenore on Facebook. They've been known to be really slow and have bad communication, so you might not want to order from them if you need the shoes anytime soon.

>>7358918
How is the Floral Notebook blouse? I am thinking of getting one in the future.

>>7362469
I like it a lot; the quality seems to be really good, and the material is nice. Edges are all hemmed or finished; there were a few stray threads, but they just needed to be trimmed off. I can't really say if the made to size is accurate, since I ordered one of her premade samples, but the measurements she gave me for the blouse were bust: 80cm and waist: 62cm. I'm b:78cm and w: 60cm, and it fits fine, not too snug and not to loose.

>>7348743
Source for the brown bow shoes please?

cosmetics bag is /cgl/ related but I don't need to explain my excitement for the new Glitch Mob album (and yes I got the shirt too because I'm a ginormous weeabo and the graphic design of that cover struck a chord with me)

>>7362551
I want it all

>>7350979
Plushes are from disneystore. Just type that into google and yoshould get to the site
Corset and black blouse are from Lipservice

When I say I won't buy from cdjapan they always end throwing really nice sales.
Pic related, this dress wasn't in Moitié online shop but in cdjapan for half the original price.
Couldn't resist.

>>7362125
I ordered the exact same swimsuit, anon! Hope it's good quality, I'm using it for babby's first swimming day.

>>7363565
I'm going to have a look right now. That is an amazing dress.

I love these boots. Can't wait.

>>7363579
I'm sorry to say that it's already sold out.
But the skirt is still there (also in the official Moitié shop, in case you rather using a SS).

Waiting on some knits to (attempt to) make some cardigans from the Otome no Sewing mooks.

>>7363678

I like that one on the right.
Best of luck!

>>7363617
omg those are beautiful

>>7363617
Woah, lovely. Sauce?

A bit off topic but I'm pretty clueless as to who would know other than some seagulls.

Is there anyone who has a general idea how much it would cost to send a jacket of decent weight from Australia to the East coast of the US? I'm looking at something on ebay and I'm not sure if the shipping cost is accurate.

>>7363895
http://postcalc.usps.com/

just do it in reverse. see how much it would cost to send from the US zipcode overseas. depending on the weight/shape of box/type of shipping method it can vary wildly.

>>7363899
That's a bad idea, Australia Post now incurs a surcharge for any parcel to the US over 500g which isn't reciprocated on parcels sent FROM the US. The shipping cost won't be even vaguely accurate.

>>7363895
You'll need an exact weight to make a correct estimate, but use the Australia Post website. In general, I've found that shipping to the US can cost anywhere from $20-80 for a single garment (dress, jacket, etc.). It depends on the service used, how much the item weighs, the dimensions of the box used to mail it, and so on:

http://auspost.com.au/apps/postage-calculator.html

>>7363565
Holy shit, I want that so much.

Is it still there? Can I get multiples?

Did anyone else buy one of those LuckyPacks from Bodyline? Sigh… I had three incoming packages sent to my address and two out of the three arrived last week (On Monday and Tuesday respectively). But unfortunately one of my LPs hasn’t updated since Jan, 25th at ISC NEW YORK NY(USPS). I guess I’m just scared it’s never going to arrive and 50 dollars went down the hole for nothing. Atleast if it arrived I would have something to show for the spent money. But a part of me dies a little inside that I couldn’t even get to look inside and see the crap I could have received. It sucks that I’ve been worrying myself silly for a month and a week at this point. I dunno… a part of me is hoping that my whining might make something in the cosmos allow for my final package to arrive early tomorrow. Here’s to hoping. Otherwise I’ll just try to call and find out where it is? Has anyone called a number pertaining to International packages?

>>7364237
>>7363645

>>7364335
You should call. If there's tracking I think it's usually insured?

>>7362551
bottom middle skirt?

>>7364967
Well, I ordered AIRmail which BL wont refund if it gets lost if/when it arrives in your country. If it gets lost in Japan? They might give you a refund.

I'm going to try to call around and try to get in touch with customs or whatever ISC would be in New York.

Left is my taobao order. Part of it is at the SS but most of it is still being bought (because of CNY). Right is other things from ebay/etsy that are shipped.

I have that wig too, seconding the more brown comment.

How the hell do you guys have this much money for this? I can barely buy 2 full outfits a year.

Do you all live with your parents or something and don't have to worry about bills or rent or anything?

>>7366050
A lot of it depends on where you live. I just moved to the east coast from the midwest and I have way less money, even though I'm getting paid the same.

>>7366050
you actually hit the nail right on the head with me

>>7350402
Dress arrived! So happy!

Now to save up for a Taobao order

I am so excited for all this stuff I can hardly stand it! So many lovely colors hnnnnng!

I just cleaned out my closet of a bunch of pieces I was ambivalent about or only sort of loved and used the money to buy a bunch of dream pieces instead.

Figures all this stuff would come after the wardrobe month is over though. My wardrobe could have been so much more cohesive.

>>7363876

Where are the Prayer socks and the purple shoes from?

>>7366566

Thank you anon, you a perfect example of why I love parts of cgl! We get called a bunch of jelly bitches but there is so much second hand enjoyment in the dream dress and mail threads!

>>7366615

The prayer tights are from an storenvy shop called Orphanim, their tights are only $27 and are great quality - check them out! Just google Orphanim tights.

The purple heels are Sofft Vercelli Mary Jane Suede pumps in grape. They are currently on clearance for about $60 in a lot of online shoe shops if you just google their name.

I would post links but it always manages to get me banned.

>>7366445
Wow. Excellent tastes. Did you find the Rottenburg stuff off Japanese or Western secondhand, if you don't mind revealing?

>>7366784

I bought the Rottenburg set off mbok.

I was pretty much breathing down my SS's neck the entire time to bid higher and higher. I've never seen it resold in the West so I kinda jumped on it and threw my budget to the wind.

>>7366756
Oh, fuck off xandra, we all know you're a two-faced bitch in it for the efame.

>>7366803
Damn, I never even saw it go up and I've been stalking mbok like hell lately.

>>7366832
you sound jelly, anon

>>7366832
If you're going to namedrop and derail for drama then give the deets or it's a pointless nuisance to everyone.

>>7366832

>>7366050
I have minimal bills and mainly use public transport.
I also don't go out much. I don't smoke, take drugs, go clubbing and I rarely drink. Alcohol and cigarettes are really expensive over here and I know people who go clubbing weekly, blowing a good $150 on booze alone.

I only visit a max of 2 conventions ever year and they're all under $100 for the weekend, that includes entry, food and merch. I went to just one con last year and only spent $40 total.

I thrift most of my clothes and work weekends for the extra pay. It means I sacrifice having a social life and going to weekend meetups but the money is good.

All in all I'm pretty fortunate and I know that not everyone is in the same situation that I am.

I have cut my spending of late because I'm starting to think more about the future (housing prices are ridiculous over here.)

>>7366840

It might have been Y!Japan auctions, I'll have to go back and look at the emails.

Do you try using different search terms? I find I get different stuff for Innocent World vs イノセントワールド vs InnocentWorld.

>>7366880
I just use the Innocent World category for mbok. But yeah for y!j I usually use "Innocent World", but only because it usually gets me the same results between that and the Japanese... welp. Now I know better.

>>7365945
necklace?

>>7366902

Yeah, for y!J *most* of the stuff is the same between search terms, but it those one instances where its not you miss out on a great deals.

I just went back and checked though and the auction had been listed under the catch all 'baby stars' and then ローテンブルク. Sometime sellers will do that or list it under Angelic Pretty アンジェリック プリティ I assume to get more auction views - but yeah, it really messes up searching.

Really trying to invest in more blouses and accessories this year.
Sometimes i feel like i buy too many things, but then i see how much other people buy and i don't feel so guilty. I always have something in the mail to look forward to, even if it's just some cheapy ebay necklace or hair accessory, it makes work worth it.

>>7366050
I have a job and can manage my finances in a way that allows me to spend money on stuff I want to buy

>>7366995
>>7366902
I missed out on Honey cake by just one day because it didn't show up with my usual search terms on Mbok.
The white yoke jsk plus headbow went for 25k, too.

>>7367957

That is the worst! And such a good deal too. I would have raged for days!

My lost babies are always Alice and the Pirates pieces on Y!J because they are usually buried somewhere in the *massive* baby category which of course has 6+ different search terms all of which bring up different stuff. Finding specific AP and Baby piece can be the hardest because there is just so much to sort through!

Thats why I like Mbok - the categories make everything so much easier!

>>7367957
dude i was going for that too but my SS sent my paypal payment request to the wrong email >_<

hnnn my packing status is 'out for delivery' but i have class all day today and tomorrow and cant be home to sign for the package
mfw

Just got these buggers in. So damn happy.

>>7368039
Ugh, this. y!j is such a hassle. I wish they'd at least make a Baby category like they have for AP.

link and review(when you get it)

I got this on ebay. Two crystals on the band that's on the inside of my wrist are missing but whatever it was $5.

>>7351160
I'm waiting on my gatchapon set too.
I'm really hoping these get here with little incident because my postal service damn near lost my order of those Sailor Scout pointers that got released awhile back. It went MIA for 3 weeks once it left customs, even with a tracking number, and it took multiple calls to different places to finally get it tracked down.

>>7369238
that's super cute! link?

>>7369238
Link please.
That's really pretty.

>>7369247
I got it from this listing but they're out of stock now. Copy and paste the entire listing's name and you can find a bunch of other sellers for the same item
http://www.ebay.com/itm/360737415424

>>7369238
I have that same thing! got it from a local shop for like $15 a few months ago. I feel kind of jipped but it's decent enough, holds up well.

>>7369244

I hear ya. Mine has not updated tracking for 4 days and it's making me nervous.

I'm prepared to fight though. They better not have lost them or there will be hell to pay.

I have 1st and 2nd season lockets from back in the 90s and I was always a little ticked at myself for not getting at least the 3rd and 4th season ones. So I very much want these to round out my collection.

>>7368111
i know those feels anon, they suck balls.

>>7368039
>>7368570
Really? I always prefer their system because I just have to go to AP and Jane Marple and basically every single brand is there and I can go through everything, rather than going to each individual brand and having to specifically search for the ones they don't have categories for on mbok. I like to look at everything at once usually.

>>7369328
Mine's been quiet for a few days, too, but I'm not too worried. You got SAL shipping, right? The way that works is that they basically throw it on a plane whenever there's extra space, so sometimes it takes a minute for packages to move to the next checkpoint.

>>7368749
I got acc832 in blkxblk and I'm assuming the white/white combo would look good in real life too? I'm probably going to grab a Paradise Rose headdress too since it also looks really nice in real life.
http://www.bodyline.co.jp/bodyline/showProduct2.asp?id=7783&pageNumber=1&pageStop=stop_1&noSubType=N

>>7369360

Thank you for telling me that. Yes I got SAL too.
Makes me feel better

>>7368570
I prefer y!japan if only because I can use buyee, however overpriced it may be, to bid in real time on my items. I've lost over 2k in auctions using Japonica, had them overcharge me in fees, and had them give me the wrong tracking number in the past 3 months alone. Chibi Tenshi and TP never seem to be able to get back to me in a reasonable amount of time.

>>7369454
I also like Buyee, because after having used private shopping services for years, it seems like they all will eventually goof up in some way, and/or hit you with hidden fees. It doesn't feel overpriced so much, because their fees are straightforward, where cheaper services will probably charge the same amount incrementally, and I'm too big a sissy to raise a stink and ask where that extra 1200 yen came from.

>>7369454
>>7369482
Can I ask what kinds of issues you've had with random overpricing and fees? Where do they hide the fees? I'm paranoid about this but not sure where to keep an eye on.

i'm really excited to get my sailor moon bag

>>7369625
I just ordered that bag too! I'm really excited as well.

>>7369482
Pussies like you are why people get fucked over.

Mushy math. I agree to pay the full item cost, their service fees, then cover the PayPal fees on all of it. But somewhere along the line, things don't add up correctly anymore. After they've got the items, I have to pay whatever they ask, because I'm not going to jeopardize a $150+ purchase over a few extra dollars.

>>7366445
amazing parasol where is it from?

>>7369625
if you dont mind me asking, where are you getting the bag from? thanks!

>>7369948
i took the photo off of kibbon because they had nicer photos but i actually bought it from spreepicky. i looked around beforehand and found a girl on tumblr who's running a deal with them. if you enter the code “PASTEL CUTIE” at checkout, you'll get 10% off.

http://spreepicky.storenvy.com/collections/378210-bags/products/4222715-super-cute-sailor-moon-transformation-bag-shoulder-bag-free-ship-sp130169

I bought a bunch of crap.

>>7370640
chest straps are sexy where'd ya find 'em?

>>7370629
Spreepicky overprices their plastic crap. You can get that on taobao for so much cheaper.

>>7370660
stardust and tentacles on storenvy.
It would be good to follow her on tumblr to get updates because she gets backlogged.
I'm sure there are other places on etsy and I know there's a tutorial to make it out of rope if you're into that kind of thing.

>>7370673
Oh my, I sure am!
Thank you so much! I hope my boyfriend likes it~ Could be his late Valentine's gift haha.

>>7370668
i tried looking on taobao and i couldn't find it

>>7344219
my IW sale order is in the post office now i know it!

babbys first 1st hand brand purchase ;-;

>>7370629
anyone have any reviews for kibbon? i like their stuff.

>>7370696
Thank you so much, and I will!
We're going to have so much fun, thank you, anon!

>>7370696
Hey, does the mail person ever give you a funny look?

>>7370721

IW was my first brand purchase as well. I have always found their items to look 500% better in person than on the website, so I hope you love your items!

>>7370806
They usually just knock on the door and go on their way.

I thought this would be a good place to ask, can you guys share your favorite places to get kawaii stickers and small things? Stickers/pens/keychains/lanyard etc
I am going to be living in kentucky soon so I'm pretty sure there's not going to be any stores to get cute junk haha.

I actually had an odd encounter at the post office. I came in with the slip from the post that i had a package waiting.

Me: Here is the slip i have a package waiting for me?
Pw: Alright lemme check.
Pw: Ok is this package for you? *shows me package*
Me: Yes, obviously.
Pw: *Looks at me again* Really? Its a normal package.
Me: Yes, its a normal package. Its for me.

Then she gave me the package and before i left, she said it again. But its a normal package.

Like what the fuck is wrong with small brown packages. Does it freak post workers out if someone recieves a brown cardboard box?

I just received these in the mail from Amazon... only I didn't order them. The mailman must have left them at the wrong address. I have no use for any of these games for I do not own a gameboy. Looking to trade them for a date with Emjay on Valentine's Day. Pls send all inquiries to bakainthestreetsenpaiinthesheet@yahoo.com

>p.s I will throw in my special fedora ^__^
>pls no copypastirino

>>7371497

Are you serious... how about you return it to the post? That shit is expensive.

>>7371497
>>7371511
this weirdo shows up like once every two months to try and sell these video cards and processor. Don't pay them any mind.

>>7371511

cute post dude ^^

>>7371524

Please don't listen to this this negative poster. She's just salty because I wouldn't accept her Hot Topic itta items as a trade.

>>7371524
Shit's probably stolen.

>>7371524
You mean, a troll reposts this every couple months.

the other day my dress came but iw asnt there to sign for it.
the next day it snowed balls so no mailman.
today the mailman didnt feel like walking up my driveway, so i have to go pick it up now.
go to town, cant find post office, driving in circles for an hour, trudging through snow, boots and feet are soaked.

finally get. anti-climactic.

>>7371940
Gurl, that cardigan does not go with the dress.

>>7371948
>>7371948
Let the girl enjoy the dress that she literally just got in the mail. Time for proper coordinates comes later.

>>7366050
You either have a low paying job, or just aren't willing to blow as much money as other people. I couldn't ever imagine spending as much money as I do now for clothing a couple years ago, but I can easily buy a lot of stuff now and still save a decent amount of money that I'm happy with.

Also, do you use mbok/yj? You can pick up really nice brand pieces very cheaply that way.

>>7371948
its my lame vday cardigan sorry

Roses are red

Violets are blue

my heart goes *doki doki*

every time I see you!

Happy V-day seagulls~


From /jp/

To /cgl/'s anon

>>7371962
If you don't have a proper coordinate, don't post online or people will bitch. Thats just how it is.
How are we supposed to know if she just randomly grabbed something or is her 'lame vday cardigan' or if she actually thinks it looks good?
Fucking all this baby handholding.

>>7372123
Fuck all this assuming and unneeded vitriol. Seek mental help for that anger issue.

I'm so excited! Hoping I can grab the Romantic Rose blouse in the future

>>7373810
But that's day dream blouse...

>>7371940
I love that dress, it's perfect!

This is what I'm waiting for right now.

The La Princesse Sucre set is in pink, I don't think it's going to be shipped until next month? But I listed it anyway as it's something I'm waiting for.

I'm really not sure about the St Claire OP. I love love love it, but I look awful in black, so I'm kind of anxious to see how it'll look. I guess if I hate the black on me, I could try to trade for a different colour.

>>7366050
Investment banking internship that paid around 15K for one summer, plus a 10K signing bonus. Knowing that I have that much in the bank and that I'll only be making more when I graduate (debt free thanks to grant-only, need-based financial aid) allows me to spend without concern.

Honestly, I am so incredibly lucky. But that's just what it is: the people who are buying a lot are making a lot, or at least not spending anything at all on other costs.

I'm waiting for this lovely Putumayo JSK. I bought it in case the rumors about Putumayo being the lolita guest at ACen this year are true. And it's cute anyway. I'm also waiting for some pink AP sneakers and Prupate the Starry Night Theater Pullip doll. Hopefully I'll get my MSND re-release tracking info soon, too.

>>7374096
thanks anon

now im just waiting for this baby in the mail... AP's candy sprinkle

Most of the bids end in a few hours so hopefully this will be shipped by tomorrow or Tuesday.

>>7374303
>bids end in a few hours
>shipped by tomorrow or tuesday
You realize your SS will still have to receive the items from the seller, right?
Cute haul though.

>>7373936
I know! Thats the one I bought because I missed the Romantic Bustier Blouse

>>7374131
Please post pictures of La Princesss Sucre when you get it in!

>>7374131

>dat St Claire OP

Unf

>>7374324
Ah, yeah you're right. Sorry, I'm still asleep.

All items are shipped to my SS. Hopefully the snow's calmed down a bit by now. I really just want the bloody dress.

Also, I had leftover money because I lost another bid for a dress I wanted. I ended up spending the deposit on some axes femme blouses. I think I was high or something. I regret buying at least one of them. I'm hoping it isn't as shiny as the flash makes it out to be.

I was lucky to order the limited Kyary shirt, so I'm really excited.

>>7374303
Wow, so cute! Is most of it liz lisa?

Is the bow scarf amavel/FINT? And who are the red shorts/skirt by? Are the deals you get really good? Sorry for all the questions, I normally stick to AP auctions and haven't ventured into bidding on FINT/Liz Lisa/etc yet.

my current little haul! I'm excited to see if everything looks good and fits in with my closet.

Waiting for these babies in the mail.
Can't wait for next week, getting a big paycheck and I've already scoped out a potential Taobao order...

>>7374882
Thank you. Everything is from Liz Lisa minus the My Melody bag; that's from Sanrio. I get some pretty okay deals or some really great deals. Just like AP, Liz Lisa is really popular so keep an eye on your bids like you normally would. But some recent Liz Lisa items aren't as hard to find as lolita dresses so it's very possible to find the same bag being sold by ten different people.

>>7374988
How much did you pay for the suitcase/how much do you think you'll end up paying for shipping? I've wanted one for a while.

>>7375020
I paid 10,000yen for the peach one. The white/pink one is a special Liz LisaxMy Melody collaboration and were only available in Shibuya 109 so I'm having a bit of trouble with that one. I've already gotten outbid twice with my max bids being 12,000yen and 15,000yen.

I asked a girl who bought Liz Lisa's 2012 suitcase on Mbok using Japonica (the same SS I'm using) and she said EMS shipping was about $50-$60. I'm using EMS for all the clothes and bags but I've asked for the suitcases to be shipped by AIR so hopefully it might be a little under $100.

I've wanted one for years, too, but shipping has scared me away from them. I'm going on a few trips this year and I don't even have any of my own luggage so I figured why not. I also got a bit of a raise that makes more a difference than I thought it would so I don't feel too guilty. I'd say go for it, anon. Now's the best time since a lot of people are selling them. These are small enough to be considered carry ons so you don't have to worry about them being beaten up in plane cargo. That and a basic carry on bought locally is about $100-$300. Might as well pay a little extra for something you really want.

This is what I have in my mail, Im looking forward to my watch tomorrow morning

>>7374436

Aaaand paid second fee. Can't fuckin wait.

just got HGBF 1/144 Star Build Strike Gundam & Plavski gate booster kit for my girlfriend's Reiji cosplay.

Nevermind the black box on top, since not cosplay related

>>7375477
fuck, forgot the pic.

Apparently I have a thing for Meta's prints. It was also my first time ordering from their website, and using y-japan. The skirt and bolero got here a few days ago, now I'm just really excited for the rest.

>>7366050
Very well paying job plus I made a nice sum of money last year thanks to bitcoins.

>>7375373
Where did you get the watch from?

I've won most of these in the past few days, so they're not technically "in the mail." I've also been waiting on an AP bag that I bought from a girl for over a month.

Missing from this is a hat, a skirt, some accessories, and two pairs of long socks and three pairs of tights. My body is ready.

Two wishlist items and a badly-needed wardrobe staple. I really shouldn't have been spending this month but splurged anyway.

>>7375373
What? How? I stalked the site trying to get it and it's been listed as out of stock the whole time,

>>7348603
Does anyone know what the B2 shoes are?

>>7377118
Where is the cross cardigan from?

Just an MA-1 flight jacket for an upcoming Canti cosplay, and maybe for general wear later if it ends up being comfy. Nothing too grand, but I'm still pretty excited.

g-guys I ordered somethings from cloabba online and quite land before christmas and they haven't arrived... they say it's ready for shipping.... I know it's Chinese new year and all, but shouldn't they have arrived by now?

>>7377876
*Quite land sorry

>>7377876
what kind of shipping did you get? If it's any besides sea, you should definitely have gotten it by now

>>7376028
>>7377621
its the baby mook that comes with the watch, I reserved it when they announced it (feb 5th)

>>7378028
On Kino's site, right? The day I saw the announcement on BABY SF's page I checked and it wasn't listed. I saw it go up around the 12th or 13th as sold out. Damn it, and Kino seems to be slow at telling people if something is permanently out of stock.

>>7378044
amazon gurl

>>7378028
it wasnt released in japan till feb 15th.. and your expecting it tomorrow

>>7378165
well, its already in my country and in my state so, yes.

>>7377718
Ebay. I think they have a few different listings with similar looking ones

All military all the time!

I mailed myself some books from UK to California while I was there on a trip. It's been close to two months and I'm getting worried.

>>7377706
Queen Bee:
http://voi.0101.co.jp/voi/wsg/wrt-5_mcd-WW570_cpg-627_pno-04_ino-01.html

Just got my RHS from bodyline and a few other non-lolita items from Amazon. (Voice recorded, Game of Thrones S3, some stuff for my pets...)

I have some shoes from aliexpress en route that I hope to see before I'm in the ground, and I placed an order for a bunch of decoben tools/accessories.

RRL in mint is somewhere on its way too.

No other recent purchases, I need to find an old school jsk, a country or strawberry jsk, and some basic accessories next.

Just put in this taobao order. Ain't much, but unnnffff dat snow white dress.

>>7381739
Dropped my pic.

>>7381744
You are going to love the dress it's gorgeous in person.

I have failed cgl and haven't yet managed to get photos because I've been so busy. Ugh.

Ordered some aliexpress bodyline stuff!

Got this from aliexpress and ebay.

been awake for a day and a half straight
>was up all night, derping around
>supposed to get mail today (first ever paycheck, a handsome amount)
>stayed up all day
>shipping time passed
>bank now closed, cant cash it asap and treat myself to food and brand
>now I'm just sleep deprived and upset

how many of you have been there?

I literally sat on the front porch for a half hour waiting

>>7381744
My friend got it too. I saw it on her the other day and was instantly envious. Be warned, though. The ivory is more saturated, cream-yellow toned than in their photos, so if you look bad in yellow, you may be disappointed. Still, it's lovely.

>>7377490

HNNNG THOSE SHOES!!

Where are they from anon and are they still in stock?

>>7382070
Irregular Choice

>>7377868
I've always kinda wanted one of these doe everyday just because they look cool.

>>7370640
source for bird necklaces please?

>>7358918
Gurl, where that black blouse from? It is qoot!

>>7375633
>girlie stuff
ugghh i wish i had money for it right now.
do you think you could post some pics?

>>7362551
Do you know what brand is that pink JSK and Ivory-goldie coat from? Thay are perfect

>>7381751
Excellent! I keep seeing/hearing good things about it.

>>7381978
I had some concern that it was, but it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Thank you for the heads-up anon!

Still waiting on old stuff but made some new purchases.

>>7382693
What print is that skirt at the top?

>>7382698
Nevermind, got it.
Welp, another thing to add to my wishlist.

>>7382241
Emily Temple Cute and Metamorphose respectively! I scooped them both off CC.

>>7375633
how long did it take your order to arrive? I'm about to buy something from them as well

>>7382237
Sure, but it'll take a few days at the very least, I'm in the middle of moving and going to a con right after that. Keep an eye out though, I'll post it for sure.

I was hmmm-hawwing over it. I missed out on the pre-order but impulse bought it during regular sales. I'm bit of a newbie still but nevertheless the skirt looks very impressive. The fabric is super soft (it's cotton) and the print is really crisp and has lots of cute details.

>>7382912
I ordered on the 9th and it arrived on the 14th. Super speedy.

>>7381744
I ordered that dress, too; it just came in today for me! It's absolutely gorgeous, if rather yellower in person. I was kind of worried for a while because I kept seeing pictures where the top layer of chiffon was a lot pink/peacher than the other tones in the dress, but thankfully it must have just been a lighting/camera issue.

>>7382698
>>7382725

Toy March is super cute. Best of luck with hunting it down!

>>7382920
holy shit.
I'm looking forward to ordering from them now!
but I hope the jsk isn't held up in customs because its over $200

I'm incredibly frightened because the tracking for the OP+Headbow isn't working. I hope everything turns out okay, I'm just really happy I got my dream dress.

First orders, I'm pretty excited! Reds are invoice paid or waiting on invoice. Greens are shipped.

>>7375157
FYI the Liz Lisa x My Melody trunks were available at most Liz Lisa locations. The Shibuya 109 special was the blue floral trunk. My Melody ones were really limited in number though. I waited 2 hours at the Harajuku store and just missed the My Melody one by 1 person before me.

Getting some basics this month. Need more blouses, shoes, and accessories.

>>7367840
Did you order directly from An*Tai*Na? Are they back from the holiday break? I want to place an order but haven't tried direct yet if they still offer it.

>>7385946
mmm the bolero is super cute! im tempted to get it myself..

All reserved with a release date sometime around May so it'll take a while, especially considering Krad Lanretes reputation with being on time with releases

>>7386082
Good luck with May. I'm betting these won't be shipped out until June.

>>7385986
You should place an order now if you are considering it cause it may take a month to be made and another couple of weeks to be shipped to you. Boleros are custom made to fit. $45 or $30 for the chiffon ones

>>7386082
Also interested in grabbing Lost in Sea - does Clobba ask you to pay completely up-front? First time using them.

>>7386242
Around how much is the short JSK in this series, with shipping and all that included?

>>7377876
Did you email them and check the tracking status? At this point, it might have been sent back to sender if you haven't been keeping track of it. I got VM replica boots from Clobbaonline a few weeks ago and just got my Kidsyoyo Halloween jsk (reserved) from Qutieland today. That's provided that I live in the USA and picked standard shipping...

>>7383024
Dunno where you are, but I'm in Canada and I haven't gotten hit with customs yet. I've also ordered from IW and did one big taobao package, and nothing yet. However a friend of mine bought some legging from Black Milk and had to pay what I thought was ridiculously, something over $50 on a $150 order. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Either way, good luck and enjoy that JSK when you get it!

all i have to report is a vibrator. i really wish it was makeup.

>>7386242
The short jsk is $150 but I don't know about shipping and when payment is due. It is my first time doing a reservation with them so I asked about shipping and paying, I'll let you know when I get an email back!

>>7386940
I emailed them almost a day ago, no reply yet. How long do they normally take to reply? Does Martin (that's the guy who runs it I believe) check his emails on Saturdays?

>>7386557
Where from? If I lived in the US, I would get vibrators all the time, what with that TooTimid site having free ones every month. The shipping to overseas is too much to bother.

>>7386944
The last time I ordered something through them I got a reply really fast but that is almost 4 years ago, I'm not sure if he checks his emails on Saturdays...

>>7366445
Oh man those MM dresses, I reserved the blue one with my SS but somehow Paypal has been screwing me so it didn't send the money and I found out a day after the reserve closes. Fucking Paypal.

Update on incoming mail. I definitely splurged a bit this month but it will be the last time i will be buying things for a while. Taobao is a trap. SCH should be arriving Monday or Tuesday, i can't wait!

>>7386242
When I bought it from the first round it was like $180ish after shipping (China air, not ems, so it took like four more weeks than my one from TBS) and total payment.

>>7387050
link to the fur gloves?

>>7387110
Here anon, i think they are pretty good for the price, this shop is one of my favourites for accessories too
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=36873410456

>>7385946
I ordered through my Taobao SS, that was on the 11th though, and they are still marked as awaiting seller delivery so i'm not sure

>>7385946
I ordered through my Taobao SS, but that was the 11th and it is still marked as "Awaiting seller delivery" so i'm not sure

>>7385924
Oh I mixed them up, sorry about that. That sucks about the Lucky Pack you missed. I've seen a lot of the My Melody suitcases floating around Y!Japan with the clothes included for about the same price they went for so you can still get yourself one.

>>7387197
awesome, thank you!

Been pretty meshugenah saving in the past couple of months, and suddenly my husband and I fell into some money and inherited some stuff so I bought a bunch of household items we needed for cheap.

The only thing I'm worried about is the quality of the bag. I usually buy exclusively artisan bags from the leather shop that sharpens my figure skates, because they're high quality and cheap, so I never had a PU leather bag before. I want something that won't stain in bad weather but I heard the straps fall off of PU bags easier. And there's no way in hell I'd buy a "designer" bag ever, but those are usually better quality.

Eh, guess we'll see.

>>7387219
oh it's no problem. I got the normal trunk that had clothes that fit better with my closet :)

>>7387050
Can I ask where the bottom right letter bag is from? It looks like a btssb replica and I'd love to get one myself!

>>7382070
They're the first release of 'Can't Touch This' from Irregular Choice. Long-sold out, it's taken me years to hunt them down.

...And now my post office has possibly lost them, they were supposed to be delivered Friday and they've been randomly "forwarded" into the wild blue yonder. I am furious. Going over there tomorrow since I have to pick up ANOTHER package the mailman couldn't be assed to deliver either, and already sicc'd the national hotline on them ahead of time. I can't stand dealing with this post office anymore, I wish I could forward my mail somewhere else to avoid them. They're apparently renowned for being awful.

At least the packages are insured...

i just used japonica for the first time and it was really great (don't know if i should be surprised or not, i've heard both good and bad stories)
overall, from the time i first placed my bid til the day i received it (USA) took maybe 10 days

>>7387050
link to clock bag and letter bag?

>>7387050
link to the skirt please?

>>7385946
I really want to order from this indie brand but I don't use Facebook! Do you know if I could email them with an order or something?

>>7392316
I don't know, I've only ordered through fb messaging. There isn't an email listed on their page Facebook dot com slash bunnyhouse.vn

>>7392064
Not OP, but If you're talking about the skirt with the map print, it's by MILK and called cruise print. You're gonna have to look around mbok or y!j for it because it was released a couple years ago.

Got some dream items, plus more toned down otome things.

>>7391622
Japonica are awesome in my opinion, I've had no trouble with them so far, and they're cheaper than some other services I use.

>>7386946
Amazon, I didn't want to splurge on one just yet, and I had prime shipping. It's the Silicone Bounding Bunny in pink. It's pretty cute, and waterproof. I've never heard of that tootimid site though, I'll have a look at it for if/when I decide to get another.

Expecting my compacts soon-ish, as well as Fluttershy.
Bodyline order will get here in who knows when.
And then my wigs plus my friends wigs.
Can't wait to see the quality of these.
