Gothic Lolita Wigs: Wavy Lolita w/ponytails - Black


Okays~~ I finally bought a wig!!! My mom HATES wigs, so it took me forever to convince her to let me buy one! :/ And when she finally agreed, she added "only natural colors" which I didn't have too much of a problem with since I'm more of a 'sweet antique doll' type sweet lolita than a 'OTT sweet' lolita XD But still, I DID have my eye on a pink and purple split wig... well, too bad, this works even better! I get to wear this on days I don't have school! :9
Here's it in motion! :P

Quality: Holy crap! I was hesitant to buy a wig from them, 'cause they had gotten some crap reviews from some people...but this is softer than my own hair! Then again, my hair has been damaged from bleaching and stuff so... ^^; But anyways~ NO large clumps of hair falling out after I shook it out; NO tangles; THICK curls; and DEFINED curls. The 'corkscrew' kind, not waves. It's not shiny at all, well...not in the bad way, in the good, 'healthy hair' way! (Unless you're taking strong flash pictures...in which case, its gonna look fake) Ponytails: Kinda fizzy along the roots, but really not that bad, it's thick enough to hide the clips well, and the curls are so large and luxurious~ :3

Sorry for the  blurriness ^^; (w/out twintails and flash)
 Color: Solid black color, small hints of very dark brown, giving it more of a natural look C: A good look overall, if I compared it to my friend with black hair, it'd look pretty similar~
With twintails and flash


















Comfort: Very comfy~ I've just got it today, and I've been wearing it all day without it cutting off circulation to my head, or...getting itchy, or...uhm, scratching my face with its obviously fake hair. (and now imma get sidetracked) In fact, when I was doing my homework, the hair fell onto my face, and I was surprised because it felt softer than my real hair.

Recommend~?
YES

Review: Bodyline l388 Detachable Sleeve Princess OP w/ choker in Purple (pul)



OK...Bodyline dream dress time~! ^o^ Yesh, this is my dream dress from bodyline!

It's one of the more expensive ones from Bodyline, at $67, but I think that it's worth the price. :9 Especially when the brand clothes are sooo much worse. XD







Quality: Solid quality, especially compared to the other dress I got. This one is made of cotton and polyester, the other one was just polyester...so...naturally, this one is going to be a nicer quality. ^^;
See? No shine! ^^

 

Color and Pattern: Purple, it's purple...not a normal lolita color, but the color was just so beautiful on the website, and they were out of pink, so...^^; I bought it! And I do not regret it at all! It really is a gorgeous color! C:  (The great thing about it is that it goes with my pink gloves AND my blue parasol...not at the same time though...)I hate blue, but the blue was so pretty, I almost bought that one...just a little unneeded information. Basically, the colors for this dress are really nice :3 And...well, there is no pattern, it's a solid color...so... :P I guess I'm done with this section...

Design: OMG, this design is so detailed and complicated, I don't even know where to begin! So many ruffles! So many frills! SO much lace! So, let's just take it from the top down.
 It comes with a matching choker. (which I use as a headband) It has the same laces as the bodice, which are very soft and wonderful :3 Not itchy at all!
Detail of the laces
The bodice had three bows on it, and lots of lace!

Partial shirring along the back with corset lacing


Side zipper, nice and easy to zip
Sleeves have laces going down it, with a bow. They are detachable

A look at the bell-shaped sleeves, very intricate. :3

Detail of the bottom of the sleeve
Looks a little shiny...but let's focus on the pretty frills, yes? :P

Detail on the skirt, big bows and lace!

And the back of the skirt!
 
Fit: Yet again, my bust was the max bust...actually, my bust was a bit bigger than that, but it had shirring AND corset lacing, so... 9.9 I bought it...AND IT FIT! :D The waist fit as well, although it was a tad too big (again) but again, the dress has waistties, so, it's all good! :D Now this one can handle some puff! It can handle a whole lot of puff! More puff than i have petticoats for! (which of course, Imma have to fix) Complete cupcake shape, it's wonderful! :3

See? Puffy! And look at those sleeves! :D

Update: Since I wrote this... like, a long time ago. I have gained fifty pounds, due to medicine I'm on, a went up two bra sizes, and it still fits!

Review: Bodyline Socks in SOCKS425 in off-white (OWH)

Okay~ SOCKS TIME! :D I promised you socks, and I'll give you socks! 

Bag~ :9

Front pattern

Side pattern

Quality: Solid quality, I mean, they're socks, you can't really mess those up unless you make them out of the wrong material...

Color and Pattern: Off white in color, they're more white than off white to me...the pink strawberries, ribbons and some pink heart, are a good mix of as nice magenta-y pink and baby pink. The yellow hearts are a nice yellow, not too yellow that it hurt your eyes like yellow tends to be able to do ^^; The criss-cross pattern in the background is a light pink, a bit lighter and baby-er than the pink in the hearts or strawberries or ribbons.

Design: They're below the knee socks (Knee highs), they're meant to go below your knees. They are not over the knee socks.  They have an adorable scalloped edge, which is pictured above in the front pattern picture, with the hearts. C:

wow...that was short...hmm, maybe a socks review was a bad idea after all~! ^^;;
