/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

The relief print OP in this colorway was on my wishlist so I'm very happy.
This seller kept relisting it, I was hoping they would go down in price after it failed to sell but since I wanted it so much I decided it's ok to spend 18k on, which isn't all that much for a brand OP anyway.

Thayers came in today, got it after hearing /cgl/ raving about how good it is. The scent is nice.

The palette will be bb's first high quality make-up. I can't wait!

so many false eyelashes because i have an obsession

>>8295416
18k USD? because that's insane

>>8295593

Yen.

I'm waiting for my shopping service to send me Dolly Cat.

>>8295635
I dislike the print, but that's one cute fucking headbow.

>>8295635
aahh the headbow is really cute
>I actually love the print because cats

>>8295593
yes. a "reasonably-priced" brand dress costs $18,000.

I'm waiting on dolly cat JSK and otk and a Mother's Day gift from sephora!

Going to be waiting a while on some of these pieces. All of them except for Farutetto are reservation items.

>>8295591
same
but I'm also getting a box of petticoats from classical puppets, that bodyline fruits parlor skirt in pink, cute new ankle socks, and some laces and trims to use in handmade stuff.
I'm thinking about getting some sax shoes, a new blouse, and some deco cabochons but I kinda feel like I should probably stop spending money until I for sure have a job for the summer.

>>8295416
Love the Meta OP. I was tempted to get it because it was so cheap (and old school Meta tartan is A+)

Just bought this and am impatiently waiting for it in the mail. Id really like to find the matching bonnet and socks to go with it.

I've been eyeballing it for years but i never decided i really wanted it till recently.

>>8295402
bby's first dress is in the mail but i just realized how fucking tall i am and that it might be too short and show my knees
>its not bodyline
>inb4 noob comment

A new rotary cutter and mat (my sister threw away the old one and about $80 worth or patterns when we were moving a couple of weeks ago), two pink curly wigs, Otome no Sewing Book 6, and Otome no Sewing Book 7.

These just came in! A bit more neon than I was expecting, but still kawaii

Now that Jane Marple fits me I am trying to collect all the JM prints I've coveted over the years. With any luck, two other auction pieces will join this one.

>>8297778
Shit those are cute! Link to where i can get some?

>>8297757
>Otome no Sewing Book 7
Just got this a few days ago too, it's full of old-school sweet goodness.

>>8297744
Peeking bloomers are coming back in style, not to mention the current underskirt trend.

>>8297793
I am not going to lie my weight loss goals will not end until I can fit JM and ETC and I have a side fund of money for it too.

>>8297907
Is it? Ahh yes. I swear I fell in love with Lolita back in 2004 and I love the look of Old School stuff so much. Do you have 6 by any chance too? I'm just curious if they kept up the fairy tail theme from 4&5 for the first three things.

>>8297907
oh i think peeking bloomers are adorable in an old-school way (and it would work well since the dress is a-line and a solid color, so it feels kinda old school) but i don't want to get posted to btb
>omg you can see anon's bloomers! slut!

FromJapan insists EMS is the only way to ship this despite it being within the weight and dimension regulations for surface mail. I have 14 hours left til they start charging me a holding fee, and as far as I can tell they are on vacation til the 7th. Am I just gonna have to eat that 8000Y difference?

>>8298449
I wasn't even aiming to fit JM because historically my boobs have been too big, but I dropped a bit more than planned and almost all of it came off my boobs and waist. I'm now hella pear shaped, but I fit JM dresses perfectly and I got cash to burn (which is good, because now all my other dresses are way too big. Can't decide if it's worth selling all of my JetJ size 2 stuff or if I'll regret it later.)

Waiting on this Moitie JSK and headbow. Fingers crossed the JSK hasn't sold out, I will be devastated if it has. Also waiting on some transparent and sparkly dice for DnD.

my god, i just realised all of my dress purchases this month were made in the last week, just because i missed out on aatp's siren jsk
>now trying to convince myself that i wouldn't have jumped on these anyway

have nothing in my hands yet hnng


also, anon from last thread, i'll probably put astronomical clock up on LM and post it in the BTS thread, so keep an eye out?

>>8298543
pshaw, people are too busy burning wigs and crying about dramu to even notice bloomers peeking anymore

>>8299690
i noticed two girls wearing visible bloomers (probably on purpose) at my comm's last meet. one was in gothic and wore them over her tights, i'm not too sure why and the other was a bit chubby and in classic sweet. i think she wore the bloomers so she could still wear OTKs and not expose too much of herself. both of them looked really nice but yeah i guess i only noticed because i was looking at people's legwear

tl;dr - peeking bloomers look good when tastefully done

>>8295416
Congrats on getting an item on your wishlist! I love the Meta OP too. It would look great with a black boater hat and boots.

>>8297427
So jealous of the IW blouse and Farutetto JSK! You have great taste.

>>8299689
Lovely haul, I bet your wardrobe is amazing. Were you the anon looking for Baby's Stained Glass?

>>8299713
thanks anon, my wardrobe is all over the place, but i'm working on cutting it down (can you see it happening? haha)
yes, i'm the person who was (is) looking for stained glass angel!

I feel guilty

>>8299760
I feel jelly.
Out of curiosity, how much did you pay for it? I've heard it's been going down in price.

>>8299760
Just noticed that it's missing one of the bodice ribbons and the seller didn't mention it. Whelp. Not sure if I want it as much now.

>>8299760
I hope you won't feel that way when you get it, anon. Treasure it!

>>8299713
Thank you! I've always wanted billowing sleeves and can't resist adding to my IW blouse collection.

>>8297778
I live in my pair (wearing them as I type) as they are the most comfortable shoes i own. (Flexible sole, but sturdy and supportive) My only gripe is the dye from black tights will bleed and discolor them, but at £11.99 I can just buy a new pair every 6 months.

>>8299769
Seriously? Surely you can just replace it?

>>8299805
It can be hard to find the exact ribbon and some people can't sew. Plus with a dress like IG, anon is more likely to be disappointed. It will likely never look the same as the other one if replaced.

I really wanted an ivory parasol so that I could use it with all of my summer coords at outdoor meets. Angelic Pretty USA special ordered it for me so I didn't have to pay for weird shipping from Japan through Tenso.

>>8297712
Congrats, I have this dress and I love it.

As for my answer to OP, I'm waiting for Dolly Cat low waist jsk.

Ugggghhhh, I have no idea why this wasn't successfully delivered, I don't think I needed to sign for it? Should I call the post office right away or do you think they will try to re-deliver it.
This is the first time this has happened to me and I'm very unsure of what to do.

>>8299690

>>8297744
same anon. i dipped into my savings account and bought a decent petti (the one i had before was a shitty lumpy one my sister made when she decided she wanted to do a "lolita cosplay" at otakon '12), bloomers, and those celeste stein cherub tights (the real thing too, not replicas)

Hooray for free 2 day shipping! I should be getting my face stuff tomorrow.

>>8300422
Woah that's kinda weird. Did it get sent back?

>>8301440
What're you making anon?

Most of these I won off of eBay auctions last week or the week before. The forest shirt is closer to a sports bra and nothing else has made it to me yet.
Estimated delivery dates range from this friday to June 22nd.

>>8302008
sauce on the skirt?

>>8301718
Nothing crazy. Just this thing.

>>8300422
Does anyone know why it's doing this? Help?

Beaucon shimmer brown, ordered them last week. :)

>>8303172
As well as purple Axent Wear headphones, but they won't be here for a while. Contacts should get here in a week

>>8300422
It's preparing shipment from customs to the final destination...

>>8304440
Could you link to that bottom right collar? Gorgeous haul overall anon

>>8304440
Sauce on the goblet-thingie and the long collar?

>>8304371
Every other package I've ever had ship has never done that. And now it's stuck on this status.

>>8304440
sauce for the collars/dickies?

Oh god, those new pens are fabulous. I was already wavering over whether to get the senshi pens but that Tux one is so gorgeous I might have to get that too...

>>8304440
I have had both wigs and they're kinda poor in quality.

Waiting on an order from Sephora.

Been waiting for my first batch of fromjapan items for 2 months now... Next time I won't give surface mail a try.

>>8306299
can you review the misspoint bustier/corset/vest when you get it?

where are you shipping to? SAL to australia took about 2.5weeks, but what's funny is the people at my post office still scanned it in even though there's no tracking number

>>8306299

Here's one that has 6 days left on the auction. I really just selected lowest $ + shipping and bid on the colors i liked. There's also navy and black for cheap. I'm not expecting it to be very high quality, I only paid ~$3

>>8303179
I'm waiting on the blue ones.

>>8306299
Anon, I like your tastes! Your Taobao stuff is probably what I'd order.

Could you link the two dresses on the far right please? Although I'd really love to see links to any of the gothic clothing and blouses. I'm trying to do more casual gothic lolita these days and these are all sublime for that.

if anyone recognizes some of my order it's because I posted some of this stuff in a previous mail thread, ended up changing some of my taobao order last minute. just paid for shipping though so I'm excited for it to get here, some of this stuff I ordered in February. Now it's getting too warm to wear the jacket, oh well. Super excited for it anyway, plus the bonnet, and the straw hat from meta - I was about to check out but decided to take one last look at the hair accessories, saw it and just had to get it!

anyways, it's gonna be good month for mail.

For the collars:
Bottom right collar.>>8304489. Also there's another listing of a collar that look just like this but is way more beige in color. I'm hoping this one turns out to be white like the photos and not actually beige.

And yes that tuxedo mask one really drew me in. I love that rose.

>>8305204
The holy grail was a preorder and the Bandai site stopped taking orders for them back in Dec 2014. But you can find them on Ebay if you search under Sailor Moon room fragrance. It's actually a room fragrance thing with a scent container in it: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=sailor+moon+holy+grail&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xsailor+moon+room+fragrance.TRS0&_nkw=sailor+moon+room+fragrance&_sacat=0

>>8305596
Ah damn. Was hoping they'd be decent.

>>8306299
The 2nd white blouse down with the red background, where did you get it from? Was it from this store:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.1.Cva7mv&id=44572400436&ns=1&abbucket=13#detail

I've been thinking of getting it but not sure if it actually comes from another store and this store stole the photo, or if this store is legit.

>>8306504
Yes, that's the store. I usually judge by the review images and it seemed alright.

>>8297427
Did you get a response from IW confirming your reservation on the blouse? I'm waiting on one for it in black, but not overly hopeful at this point tbh.

>>8307143
actually my bad, sorry, i think i took the air mail option not SAL
SAL is usually pretty good from south east asia though, i've sent a lot of things from taiwan to aus using SAL and they've all made it across fine

fingers crossed your things arrive soon!

>>8307260
I ordered through a SS so I'm assuming my order was confirmed as soon as the purchase was made since the JP shop uses a shopping cart system.

When did you place your order? Fingers crossed for you, anon.

It's a really busy time of year for me, the coldest con of the year is coming up so I decided one of my costumes should be one of the skin-showiest ones in my plans? God knows why.

I've been trying to hunt down a pair of Audio Technica ATH-FC700A headphones in the right color to be Extra Authentic, but for now I'm just using a pair of cheap Target ones I've modified to look like his, haha.

As for the kunai I'm gonna buy some supplies to start crafting them after I get my next paycheck

Literally just got my Celestial pre order, was planning on selling it as a set since my style has changed since ordering it, but the lace is SO IMMACULATE I'm not sure if I can.


.....buuuut if anyone's interested I have the dress, bonnet, and OTKs in navy plus an extra pair of OTKs in sax

>>8308348
for how much tho

>>8307384
Bugger, that sounds like a good idea for popular items, actually. I ordered on the 27th, and I'm assuming it was released on the 25th (I wasn't expecting a release, and they released a bunch of stuff I wanted ;-; ) so hmmm we'll see. If not I'll get one of their normal sleeved ones which will go with more of my dresses tbh, but I adore those princess sleeves.

>>8309283
>speak of the devil
Just got a reply and yup, no go on the blouse unfortunately, so going to get a different blouse (and the rosary necklace bc the other blouse is cheaper which is a blessing in disguise I guess).

>>8297712
It's heeeeeeeeere!

I haven't done much shopping for myself in a couple years now, really, besides a shirt here and there. I'm spoiling myself this summer.

Only I'm shipping everything to a place I won't be for another 2 weeks, so I don't get to open the stuff that's arrived. It's gonna be like christmas when I get there, though, I'm so excited.

>>8310906
Lovely haul, anon. Do you mind sharing the sauce on the brown heels on the right hand side? Also, what do you think of the Infanta OP you got? It looks like a nice versatile piece.

>>8310906
review/pics of infanta underdress? I'm trying to justify it to myself.

>>8309283
>>8309451
Damn, sorry to hear that. It sucks that IW's slow response time caused you to miss out on it. Which blouse did you end up getting? Maybe in you can get a princess-sleeved blouse from another brand like Baby later. Atelier Pierrot does some pretty extreme sleeves as well.

>>8301440
Oh I love Celestial! It's the best moisturizer I've ever used

>>8310911
>>8310910

I'll be sure to review the underdress when I get home to it.

The brown heels are Aerosoles and they're on sale
http://www.aerosoles.com/store/jump/product/Minor-Role-Leather-Lace-Up-Mary-Jane/MINOR-ROL

I'll probably replace the shoelace with a prettier ribbon but overall I'm pretty excited about reasonably priced normalfag shoes that remind me of a more comfortable version of that one VM pair.

>>8310964
Holy shit, $49.99 for a pair of Aerosoles? They go for $130+ in the shithole I live in.

>>8310973

what shithole is that? I can't imagine paying that much for Aerosoles.

OK? There wasn't any shoes or heavy stuff in this one except the coat. If I had bought the meta shoes I got through buyee using fromjapan instead...well. I don't really want to think about that.

Fucking finally. Been waiting since 15th January. The dark JSK is really versatile and comfortable

>>8306338
I got this in the mail yesterday, and it really is 38 cm long. It just barely covers my butt, and that's standing still and upright. Just something to be aware of! It was a nice thick material though, not see-through like i thought it would be.

Wait, $50 worth just of taobao stickers? I really want to see what that looks like all together. I love stickers.

>>8312988
>stooping this low.

its not even that expensive and theyre pretty durable. What do you do to your keychains?? Throw them?

>>8313020
Pretty much, yeah. Throw them into my purse, toss them onto the counter at night, etc. I'll buy official figures and stuff that's decoration but I'm not going to spend the money on a whole set of official keychains that're going to be messed up. Seems pointless to me.

>spend $10 on a single phonestrap with keychain for character
>shit breaks off in a month and lost somewhere in store
Never did find it. So yeah, cheap-ass bootleg for me if it's going on my keys or phone.

I've recently started collecting figures and my wallet already feels so much regret.
Also if anyone is interested in the Ista Mori OP when it gets here let me know. I'd rather have it in black, so I'm open to selling/trading it.

>>8313010
yup, i can post a pic when i get them

>tfw my SS probably thinks i'm doing a group order for different people because all the things i get are so vastly different

>>8312970
Sauce on the T&B...what's his name? Do they have the other characters?
>tfw you watched the whole series and can't remember his name.

>>8313304
Not that anon, but that's Lunatic.
>aka my husbando

>>8313308
Sorry that I couldn't remember his name. It's been a while since I seen T&B. Off topic but is the movie translated?
>My favorite is Origami because we act alike but people compare me to the Bruce lee girl like wut.

>>8313075
What size is the Ista Mori OP and how much would you sell it for?

>>8313354
It's a size L, and I'd just resell if for the same price I got it for. I think with shipping it was like $150? It's supposed to arrive in June according to the SS I used.

>>8297827
Sorry for the late reply!

The listing already ended, but if you search for transparent boots on ebay, you'll find lots of listings.

>>8299796
They're amazing. They're soooo comfy

>>8307871
Can you review the love live costume when you get it?

>>8311033
>that City Hunter image

>>8313374
Will do! Unfortunately I have no idea on when it'll arrive but I'll post it in whatever mail thread is up when it does

>>8305759

bought midsummer nights' dream from anon in the BTS thread


all the western sellers are taking a while to ship out, but FJ order has left japan and taobao order will be complete soooon
>loljks just added a heap of nail decals

>>8313075
I know how it feels to figure collect and lolita. I recently went back and my wallet is bleeding cash. I've decided personally to just collect figures of characters I really, really adore vs. being those serial collectors I see.

>>8313647
Link to those nail decals? They're super cute!

>Never any regrets when buying the glory that is Midsummer Night's Dream

I thought this was for Yuan not yen and almost had a heart attack.

The stress of finals got to me....

Posted this in the previous thread but added some polaroid stickers and polaroid albums.

Dress, cosplay and wigs have been shipped off and ill be getting it coming week if there arent any problems (someone asked me to review little dipper dress so i will do so when it gets here)

>>8313851
I love what you're planning for that darling Little Dipper OP. We have super similar taste.

>>8313304
>>8313308
>>8313326
Lunatic is my waifu as well. I got it from this Japanese seller who sells mostly used figures in auctions.

>http://stores.ebay.com/tora-books

I have been really bad lately and am kinda feeling a bit guilty looking at this. But i plan on closet cleaning and selling in a couple months so that might make me feel better.
A couple things in made to order, the rest should be arriving tomorrow actually.

>>8313664
>I've decided personally to just collect figures of characters I really, really adore
thats pretty much what I do too.
The fact though that I don't have to pay for these figures now makes it easier to just keep adding more. Definitely going to try and restrain from adding anymore that come out in July and August.

>>8313867
Thanks anon! Its actually my second lolita dress, since I'm primary a cosplayer.

Though I'm having a bit of trouble with the shoes. I'm worried none of the purples will match well (or at least not true to their stock photos, knowing taobao) so I've held back from buying them.

>will probably take this to co-ord help thread when I get the stuff

>>8313914
I don't even sweet, but I love your taste. Rose Toilette is gorgeous.

Planning to craft some things I couldn't find for purchase anywhere. Just small quantities from ebay.

>>8313664
Thiiiiiis. My main fandom has been getting a ton of figures and merch in general lately after years of no interest, so that coupled with lolita buying has been totally destroying my wallet. It hurts. But it's great.

Are cosplay girls with donation pages scams?

Some offer little gifts if people that donate. I've been donating to a girl for almost 4 months now and she still hasn't sent me a letter . Her donation page says that she will write you and send you pictures if you donate to her. Have I been had?

>>8314200
Just ask her about your reward?

Realized my summer wardrobe is lacking, so I bought a few things

>>8314207
>>8314207

I'm afraid I'll come off as rude or entitled. What's a polite way to ask about it without sounding like a desperate neckbeard?

>>8314200
Don't donate then

expecting a beautybox.

want me to review once it gets here?

>>8314285
Just ask whether something went wrong on the donation system side since it sounds like a set rewards not something she might do if you're lucky.

sauce on those sarouel pants pretty please...

I guess this is semi-related... I'm doing my first order off taobao and it still hasn't shipped, even though it's 1 day off cancelling. Should I contact the seller to ask them if I should extend shipping time?

>>8314481

I've bought similar ones before but they were way too short. I'm 172cm

>>8314789
It has a ridiculous name... had to copy and paste it from Krad's FB page. It's called "Kostelik Vech Savtych a Kostnici".

>>8315003
A lot of tights I've bought from the China/Japan area are meant for girls between 150-165cm. I find they fit great at 161cm, but be warned if you're a taller anon!

This and a bunch of socks from the Sockdreams sale this weekend. My shit's all over the place lately.

>>8313851
Things arrived but I'm so disappointed I got sent the OP in the wrong colour. I ordered purple and they sent me beige and I don't know if it's worth arguing with the seller since I order direct from TB plus it was a preorder item so I don't think there's any way to swap them....

I'll still do the review though! Have photos etc up soon!

>>8306442
Sauce for the flower headbands?

>>8315003

I'm around 168cm so I guess nothing to do but try them and hope for the best.

Was outbidded on a qt btssb houndstooth dress(am a houndstooth whore), so I drowned my sorrow with two bags. Will probably add more idk

>>8316119
How much did you get it for? I might be willing to take it off your hands.

I know, but as a print name it's not very memorable or easy to refer to. I don't mean it as a slight on the name or language. Surely you get what I meant.

>>8317023
ughhhh i feel kind of shitty for wanting two of those SM bags. I love all the new merch they put out but i feel real sketchy buying the knock offs.

Added a few more items. Shoes are on sale from target, bag is from modcloth (also available on nastygal too). melt cosmetics is having a 25% off your cart discount thing if anyone is interested, code is meltmilli but I think it ends today at midnight PST?

what's the name of the black and white cityscape pattern dress at the bottom? I think its AP but correct me if im wrong. I need to see more of that pattern its cute as hell.

>>8317794
not that anon, but are you talking about the closetchild one? if yes, it's navy and it's a carnival print. it's cl night carnival by metamorphose and I'm extremely jealous of anon because I wanted to buy it but didn't have the funds, it's my preferred colorway. oh well, I hope you enjoy it anon it's a super cute print!

>>8317816
oh jeez seeing better pictures of it just makes me so upset because that print is absolutely gorgeous. For sure joining the ranks of dresses I would buy if I wasnt broke as shit. Thanks for letting me know the print!

>>8316119
I apologise in advance the room i took photos in didn't have ideal lighting.

This is the review for the Little Dipper dress since an anon requested it (its my second dress I have no idea what things to look out for) but overall the construction was good, loose thread around the zip but that being said the zip worked well. The lace used on the sleeves,collar and the bottom of the dress were all very nice quality. The embroidery on the collar and waist ties was nicely done.

I did try it on and the measurements were all true to the ones given (I got the OP in size L) though I feel like it might be a little on the short side since it sits a tiny bit above the knee.

>>8316889
Thanks for the offer anon but I might hold onto it for a bit since I kind of like it after I tried it on. Just that all the accessories I bought dont go all that well with it anymore.... but ill pop it in the sales thread if I change my mind!

>>8318834
Ah, it's fine! It's a cute OP!

I had a bunch of small knick knacks coming in from China. Fedex said it was arriving soon but then the department of fish and wildlife took it?! It's been stuck with them for a week, my friend bought a phone case and the carrier was fedex as well, she said it also went through the department of fish and wildlife and it took two weeks to arrive to her house. She said she can't get rid of the funky fish smell from it either.

>>8311689
>>8311693
It's here and the review is up!! Sorry that it's kinda shitty I've never really written up an actual review before
My blog is himetori.blogspot since 4ch thinks literally every single link I post is spam. Nice.

>>8313437
You're gonna be disappointed if you're not Australian since that's where I am. If you are Australian though I'll be wearing him to Melbourne Oz Comic Con next month with a Yu!

And yeah, I really don't understand why the western fandom hates him for what he said about Kanji and girls and stuff. The kids a 17 year old in 2011, he was acting how most 17 year olds in 2011 would act to be honest.

>>8318932
Why would they go there?

I'm waiting on a pink Dolly Cat OP and KC that should be here tomorrow. I wanted to buy the matching plush cat bag but the only one on YAJ right now is over ¥50000 yen ahaha fuuuuck that.

>>8318834
I'm the anon that requested the pictures. It's so pretty! I'm sorry they gave you the wrong color though.

>>8319026
Not sure, It's just small things like purses and accessories too, I'm praying they don't go through it with their fishy hands. I'm upset why would it even end up there, man fuck fedex

>>8319116
Oh and I meant to add that its basically customs thinking you smuggled bacteria/wildlife

>>8313832
I bought Wolf in Frame (a size too big) at 3am from a campus library computer because I was at that 'fuck it, I deserve this' stage. Didn't even remember until the following evening

>>8313700
It is very comfy and I was delighted that it sits perfectly at knee length (I'm 5ft) rather than eating me alive.

It matches alot of suits so I can wear it to a bunch of formal events with the bf.

>>8319017
>australia
>Melbourne

fuck yes. ill see if i can get myself to comicon ow.

>>8318840
It is! I contacted the seller and they apologised and gave me a partial refund as well so Im not as upset as when i first got it.

>Kashuu best boy

>>8319052
No problem! Yeah its a shame, but its still very nice, they have a OP up for preorder with the same design but princess sleeves if from memory.

>>8319313
Ah I want it but I want that mermaid meta print more so I'm going to throw my money at that for now. Haha I won't be able to buy anything new for half a year

A white hat to go with this dress? I've been wondering what to wear with this exact OP. I know it's an underdress but I think it could be cute on its own...

>>8299441
Got the headbow last week and the JSK today. The JSK was a little bit underwhelming in person but then again that might be as it's a summer dress and I prefer the feel of Moitie's thicker dresses.

This was unfortunately a lot pricier a small haul than it looks.

>>8311520
I still haven't had time to go through this box, I'm resisting even just peeking because I want to film it, and I couldn't find my camera until late Monday night. Why is life such a struggle?

I had to choose between the Once Upon a Time season 4 finale and opening the box - the likelihood of it getting spoiled for me grows exponentially the longer I put it off so it was a priority lol. Plus my husband would have been pissed if I had made him wait til the weekend to watch it.

>>8323449
Haha, I was the same, I just finished finals yesterday so the finale was first on my list this morning. Looking forward to seeing what's in the box!

Yaaay this just came in the mail! (Along with the matching headbow)

I personally like Sephora and MAC's brushes and products. Sephora's are a little more affordable but their eyebrow brushes, eyeliners, and liquid eyeliners are ~$12 each and SO worth it. They hold up for years.

So my Closet Child order arrived in Canada last night and was "presented to Canada Border Services Agency for customs review". What are the odds of me not having to wait until after Victoria Day for the package, and what are the odds of me not paying duties? If it makes a difference, I paid around 90 CAD shipping included.

i think this thread autosaged

>>8323139
I know what you mean. I just paid for a Taobao order that came to $112 and all it was just two cheap blouses, some necklaces, and some hair bows. And nothing was expensive on it's own. Costs really do add up.

>>8324001

Thanks!

They all added up to 13.35kg by the way and my husband and sister in law wanted stuff at the last minute so there's now a part 8 to that order.
