Naw, I found tons of reviews saying that the dresses and stuff were too short for Bodyline.

MiriaRose · « **Reply #351 on:** March 27, 2011, 06:32:14 pm »

It depends on what you're buying. Their old stuff isn't so great (and by not so great I mean very ita, short skirts and all), but their newer stuff is much, much nicer.

bunny_jean · « **Reply #352 on:** March 27, 2011, 06:38:42 pm »

I agree, they're new stuff is pretty nice. I have a OP, a JSK, and a skirt from them and none of them are too short. I've actually had problems with some JSKs being too long. :/ and I'm 5'6".

Blender · « **Reply #353 on:** March 27, 2011, 06:43:42 pm »

I'll have to look again. I mean, I like their products but I'm hesitant to buy one.

bunny_jean · « **Reply #354 on:** March 27, 2011, 07:42:40 pm »

If you find something you like you can always ask us for our opinions <3 Also, some of their shoes run a little small/large, but it's hard to tell which ones.

Blender · « **Reply #355 on:** March 27, 2011, 09:03:06 pm »

I have shoes that might work.

Oh, can't wait till my birthday. I can finally get a sewing machine and make my own lolita clothes!!!

bunny_jean · « **Reply #356 on:** March 28, 2011, 12:33:04 am »

Yay sewing you're own clothes! About half of my wardrobe is handmade.

Mostly my skirts. lol

Blender · « **Reply #357 on:** March 28, 2011, 07:38:55 am »

I wish I could say the same. I like the clothes I get but making your own clothes comes with some pride.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #358 on:** March 28, 2011, 10:40:18 am »

Most of my stuff is handmade too haha. It's not very well made though, I need to get back into sewing.

Blender · « **Reply #359 on:** March 28, 2011, 03:06:38 pm »

Yeah.

Awww Katie you're adorable!! I'm wearing mint today too <3 mintxsax <3 I'll post pictures later/tomorrow.

StarryShay · « **Reply #365 on:** April 02, 2011, 09:08:09 pm »

Right now I am saving up for the Sugary Carnival Replica from Dream of Lolita.
It is just so cute.

Also, Katie:
I love that strawberry bag that you have in your picture~ I wish bodyline still sold them. ; 3 ;

Blender · « **Reply #366 on:** April 02, 2011, 09:37:03 pm »

Oh I just want this bag soooo much!

MiriaRose · « **Reply #367 on:** April 02, 2011, 10:22:43 pm »

I'm saving up for AatP's Dance of the Black Cats II JSK in bordeaux. I found it on Y!Japan for 24,000 yen, which I don't have. ):

Also, Blender, that's adorable. <3

Shay, I can't think of Sugar Carnival replicas without thinking of the person who tried to sell theirs on mbok. .

Oh am I getting mad at Milanoo right now. I'm trying to order a dress and whenever I press the "PAY" button nothing happens.

LtCommanderRichie · « **Reply #371 on:** April 03, 2011, 05:56:50 pm »

My suggestion- don't buy from Milanoo. They're scam artists.

Also, I have my sights set on IW's Arabesque Rose JSK. The tiered one. It'll fit me, which is great. Just need a blouse to go under it.

GOOD. DON'T PRESS THAT PAY BUTTON.

Milanoo is being boycotted by the lolita community for very good reasons. Like Richie said, they're scam artists. They send you low-quality products that look nothing like the pictures. If you want inexpensive lolita items, try Bodyline.

luvan1me · « **Reply #373 on:** April 03, 2011, 08:29:40 pm »

NO MILANOO!!!!!!!!!! DX BAD JUUJUU!

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #374 on:** April 03, 2011, 08:30:54 pm »

OH I JUST REMEMBER- my Bodyline stuff is coming tomorrow! I just hope that someone is home to sign for the package...

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #375 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:07:15 pm »

Crap...I wish I knew Milanoo was bad...I just bought something from them........Crap...

MiriaRose · « **Reply #376 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:09:32 pm »

^ What'd you buy? I own a pair of bloomers that aren't too bad if you ignore the horrid lace on the bottom, which can easily be replaced.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #377 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:23:51 pm »

A zentai suit (full body suit).

StarryShay · « **Reply #378 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:25:29 pm »

I've heard great things about their zentai suits actually, and I will probably order one too.

MiriaRose · « **Reply #379 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:28:12 pm »

I haven't heard anything about those, so they might be okay. All I've heard is that their lolita stuff is really sketchy.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #380 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:28:25 pm »

*sigh of relief*
That's good to hear ^^;

So right now I'm working on a Cheshire Cat design that is lolita. A mixture of Aristocrat and punk. I'm pretty excited for it ^^

I have a zentai suit from Milanoo that I'm using for me Heartless cosplay. It came out really good. And don't worry the PAY button didn't work sooo yeah. I just orded alot of stuff from Bodyline...like..over $100 worth of stuff. There's like 3 or 4 dresses, 2 pairs of shoes, and some socks. I can't wait to get them. But now I have $71 left on the gift card I got and I don't know what to do with it.

nekovamp13 · « **Reply #383 on:** April 03, 2011, 09:58:58 pm »

Give it to me >>
jk

But thanks for the info. I'm actually using the zentail suit for my Neo Shadow cosplay ^^

But yeah...I need money. What I want for my outfit is really expensive TT~TT

Blender · « **Reply #384 on:** April 03, 2011, 10:01:58 pm »

I'll show you the one I got later. I have to go right now though.

Hurhur, I'll take it. It'll cover the cost of shipping + that skirt I really want. . Okay, kidding, kidding.

You got a Bodyline gift card, or a Visa gift card? If it's the latter, then you can probably search around one of the lolita consignment stores to find a burando skirt or something.

That's the one I got.

It's a visa gift card I only have $37 left on it now because I needed to buy a wig. Hmmm...I'll have to look around to see what I can get. If I get anything else off of bodyline then It'll only be $17 worth of stuff.

Not to sound creepy or anything, but how old are you? I used to buy those Visa gift card things and I lost a lot of money on them, mostly because I'd end up with a ton of change left over. ): If you're over 16, you can get a checking account if one of your parents agrees to cosign.

If not, see if you can connect your Paypal to a savings account.

I'm 16 but I don't have a savings account and my parents don't know that I spend my money on these things. I have them sent to my friends houses so my parents don't find out.

MiriaRose · « **Reply #389 on:** April 04, 2011, 06:13:47 pm »

That sucks majorly, bro. ):

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #390 on:** April 04, 2011, 07:39:14 pm »

Man I used to do stuff like that kind of >: My mom hates cosplay and lolita so I'd just have my dad help me order stuff and have it shipped to his house and my mom wouldn't really be able to do anything once I had it since I used my own money.

I'm 18 but still live at home because I'm a senior in high school, and I'm kind of worried about showing her Milky Berry haha... Even worse if she asks about the price D:

MiriaRose · « **Reply #391 on:** April 04, 2011, 08:00:50 pm »

We used to have to be on food stamps, and they'd look at my mom's bank statements so she couldn't order the stuff for me and I could pay her back. I'd ask friends if they could buy it for me online, because their parents would do stuff for that, and it'd ship to their house and they could give it to me at school.

): I'm sorry your mom hates cosplay and lolita. My parents love it, and even if they didn't, my dad can't say anything because he's a Rennie AND is in SCA (and he's even a laurel Dx).

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #392 on:** April 04, 2011, 08:53:59 pm »

Well we've kind of learned to agree to disagree. I'd consider myself fairly stylish outside of lolita so we get along when it comes to normal clothing because my mom is, to be fair, a really great dresser. She doesn't usually say stuff about lolita anymore and she's learned to praise me on my sewing rather than focusing on what exactly I'm sewing.
The fact that I won an award in the cosplay contest at Kcon this past year has showed her that maybe I do know what I'm doing haha.

But anyways, back to the main topic.
DHL tried to deliver my Bodyline group order today but no one was home ;^; I want my shoes and cardigan!

MiriaRose · « **Reply #393 on:** April 04, 2011, 08:57:02 pm »

Aw, hopefully he'll come back tomorrow D:. The only time I've ordered from Bodyline, the DHL guy couldn't find our house. He decided not to call my phone number because he thought it was a wrong number (I have an out-of-state area code). Our street is on the freaking map of Roseburg. Dx

I am not allowed to use DHL anymore.

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #394 on:** April 04, 2011, 09:13:19 pm »

Oh man! The guy just left one of those notes saying he'd be back tomorrow, and I signed the other side saying to just leave it on the porch.

luvan1me · « **Reply #395 on:** April 04, 2011, 09:26:24 pm »

so um i found good website for yearly contacts :3 shipping is $5, +$1 for subsequent item. and delivery time is about 15 days!

MiriaRose · « **Reply #396 on:** April 04, 2011, 09:36:56 pm »

. . Are you kidding me, they have the red contacts I just bought for $10 less. .

How is that lolita relevant, though? xD;;

luvan1me · « **Reply #397 on:** April 04, 2011, 09:39:00 pm »

cuz sometimes ppl like to change their eye color?

and especially if you want your eyes to look "bigger" or "cutesy" or w/ez >3>

bunny_jean · « **Reply #398 on:** April 04, 2011, 09:50:00 pm »

yeah, TONS of lolitas use circle lenses. I'm not one of them because they're a bit too expensive and I'm a little creeped out that they last that long. lol

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #399 on:** April 04, 2011, 09:57:39 pm »

I want some but I need to see my eye doctor first to see what fit I'd need :D
Also I'm scared of contacts in general :D
