First Package of 2016

My first new thing this year is actually something I ordered back at Halloween. I took advantage of the sale Holley Tea Time was having on their clothing in October to buy their Rainbow Spooky Bats skater dress in purple. I think it was for 30% off so I got it for 80.50USD instead of the usual 115USD, which was super exciting. I've been wanting one of their skater dresses for years and as of now, I have one :D

This is one of their made to order items, so there was quite a bit of time between when I ordered and when I received the dress. I ordered on October 30th of 2015 and I received the shipping notice on December 29th, making it almost two months between ordering and shipping. However, once it shipped, it came very quickly. It arrived only four days later, on January 2nd.

The package itself was a surprisingly small poly mailer. Inside, the dress was sealed inside a cello bag with business cards and a sticker sealed in a separate cello bag. The dress is so cute in person and it fits me like a glove. The material is very stretchy but the print doesn't distort in a weird way even at max stretch. The print is super crisp and the construction is very nice. It wasn't even very wrinkly coming out of the packaging!

I'm super excited to wear this dress. I'm already coming up with coords for it. Thank you Holley Tea Time for the wonderful dress <3

Order from Pastel Galaxyz

About two weeks ago, I placed an order for one of Pastel Galaxyz' Dreamy Bow Rings and I just got the package today! I'm super excited about it because it's even cuter in person >w<

I placed the order on March 15th and, since I am the worst at using paypal, I used the echeck option so it took a couple of days for my payment to be processed. Once it was, the package was shipped out the following Monday and it arrived today after the strangest detour to the town like fifteen miles away where I haven't lived for three years.


The mailer was pink and very well sealed with super cute Hello Kitty tape, and it fit into my apartment's very narrow mail box with room to spare, which is always nice. It felt much fuller than a single ring could warrant and my excitement skyrocketed.


Inside were two smaller packages sealed in the cutest little bags ever. The pink one held the ring I ordered and the blue one held not one, not two, not even three, but four extra goodies.


In addition to the ring I ordered, I got three bracelets and a second ring! The ring is a My Little Pony mold that looks kind of like Pinky Pie, but I could be wrong there. Whoever it is, it's super cute and a great surprise addition to my accessory collection. The candy bracelet and the heart bracelet are also super cute and will be great with some of my lolita. The third bracelet, the one on the far left in the above picture, is kandi style, with elastic string instead of metal findings, and is the most wonderfully absurd collection of adorable beads I have seen since I was actually a kandi kid myself.


The construction of all the items I received is top notch. The rings are both nice and solid and securely glued to the ring bases very neatly. While the bow ring has a perfectly flat back, the pony ring is not quite as clean and has a bit of a raised edge around the head. This doesn't effect wearability at all and, as a free surprise gift, I have absolutely no complaints. The kandi style bracelet is made with two strands of super strong plastic elastic string with a very solid knot and all excess strings neatly clipped. The two bracelets with metal finds are both very well put together with no gaps in the jump rings.

Over all, I am amazingly pleased with my order from Pastel Galaxyz. I definitely recommend them and I'll definitely be ordering from them again. Thank you so much Pastel Galaxyz for the amazing ring and all the amazing gifts <3
