    A Guide To Taobao

    Kasım 02, 2015 0
    A Guide To Taobao

    What is Taobao? 

     Taobao is a large Chinese shopping website, similar to eBay featuring thousands and thousands of individual stores supplying a wide range of products including anime merchandise and Japanese street fashion. 


    To buy from Taobao you will need a shopping service (SS) since Taobao only delivers within China. A few reliable and popular Shoping services used are: Taobaospree and Taobaonow, however there are many more options to choose from if you look around.

    The currency used is Yuan (¥) The prices of the products tend to be low but remember you have to include shopping service fees and shipping fee's on-top. Also keep in mind, you might get charged customs if your order is over a certain amount.


    Some products will have weird prices such as "999" or "9999", this is a way to say that the product is sold out or not yet available. 

     Sizes: Most stores carry one sized clothes, sometimes S/M/L, but  measurements can vary a lot. Some helpful word you might see as part of measurements:
    腰围 /中腰 : waist                                          
    臀围 : hips                                                     
    胸围 : bust                                                     
    肩宽 : shoulder to shoulder length              
    袖围 : sleeve cuff circumference
    袖長 : sleeve length
    衣长 : general length of item


    It's also possible to view an item on either Buychina or Yoybuy where you copy and paste the taobao url into the url bar on the website. 


    Taobao stores have feedback scores that start with hearts (The lowest) and go up to gold crowns (The highest).

     At the top of every Taobao page will be an orange search bar where you can type in what you want to find and look through the "Babys" (AKA products)

    All About: Otome Kei

    Ekim 09, 2015 0
    All About: Otome Kei



    What is Otome Kei?
    The word "Otome" means "Young lady" in Japanese. 

    This street style has an feminine, cute look, focusing on dressing like a young lady as the name may suggest.

    Lolita's occasionally change to dressing in Otome since there are no strict rules or guidelines to follow.

     Otome is often mistaken for Casual Lolita. However there are a few differences


    This graph from the FyeahOtome tumblr blog shows what makes an Otome and an Lolita oufit, so its easier to tell if your co-ord is more Casual Lolita than Otome.


    Click here for inspiration

     Each outfit is unique to the wearer. Otome is more about the feel you get from the outfit than the actual clothes.

    A few Brands:
    Emily Temple Cute , Milk, Jane Marple, Shirley Temple, Miss patina, Mulberry chronicles
    Items from Lolita brands and offbrands can
     easily be incorporated into an Otome outfit.



    What’s the difference between otome kei and lolita fashion?
    In Lolita a petticoat is required to make the shape of the bell skirt, and create the distinctive look. However Otome is more toned down and there are fewer rules to what makes an outfit Otome kei, giving the wearer more freedom.



    An Otome outfit can also include trousers, colours can be mismatched or matching, the feel of the outfit is more comfortable, while still looking cute and

      Spreepicky Review: Seifuku

      Ağustos 01, 2015 0
      Spreepicky Review: Seifuku
      Spreepicky is a store on Storenvy that focuses on selling clothes and accessories from Taobao. The clothes are either cosplay related with occasional anime merchandise or Japanese street fashion. They also offer artist applications so fans can be payed to design adorable prints for tee's, phone cases or more. They offer world wide free shipping as well as sizes for a range of sizes.Spreepicky was founded in August 2013 "with the idea of picking customers the best cute fashion with lower cost and best shopping experience"
      Facebook // Storenvy


      The first item I ordered from Spreepicky, was this printed seifuku.
      Sakura (Cherry Blossom) prints are really cute so when I found this I decided to buy it quickly.
      There is a variety of sizes so make sure you double check your size before you buy. This seifuku so far is only available in pink.
      Link

      The second item I got was this plain seifuku in pink. 
      Although I got it in Pink (Pink is taking over my life ^^) you can also get it in a variety of colours such as purple, green, red, black, blue, green and pink. The price is $19.99 (About £12.50) along with free shipping which is a good price.

      Link


      Here are both of the Seifuku's I brought. The labels are cutely shapped like a wing, Reminds me of the CardCaptor Sakura wing >.< There's really cute messages on the packaging such as: 
      In general the packaging gives of the idea of magical girls (A weakness of mine)

      The first seifuku I will be reviewing is the Sakura Print one
      The colour turned out really pretty. The bow is also detachable which means you can change bows if you would like. I found the Seifuku a little thin so be-careful when you wear it. The Sakura Print is really pretty and clear.



      The next seifuku is this plain pink one. The colour is a cute tone of pink that's slightly brighter then pastel pink.



      The bow is also a good size, its not too big and not too small. 


      Included in the parcel was also a free golden necklace which was too small to picture but it was really pretty. I gave it to a good friend of mine! Also included was a postcard from the old but well-known Mahou shoujo series, Sailor Moon.


      The message from the seller was really sweet!

      Plus the business card! It's really cute! 



      Personally I found the seifuku's a little too thin, however for the price they are not bad quality at all. The customer service was sweet and friendly. 

      In conclusion, Spreepicky has a wide variety of products as well as being friendly, and as long as you are looking for special occasion wear and high quality, long wear garments - I recommend!

      Have you ever ordered from SpreePicky? If so share your experience with us!
