| Reviews of Candy Violet anyone? |

Evenin' EGL
After scouring the rather aweful search engine, I've come to the conclusion that there are hardly any reviews of Candy Violet, with the exception of the hoopla over their fluffy pettis and how they cause floods and other natural disasters from their extreme poof.
So! Has anyone done business with CV? Could you kindly tell of your experience, the quality of what you bought, etcetc? I've bought from them before, but that was like...two years ago now, haha. I didn't have any problems at the time with shipping or quality, but I'm looking for someone who's done more recent purchasery. ( Ninja print ) Thank you!

| Mochimachine Shopping Service Review |
[Nov. 7th, 2009|11:47 am] |
Imagine : Poor little newbie lolita has saved all her/his moneys up for burando, um, let's say he/she wants the newest print from "Pretty Angel." She/he is so happy, but then..... he/she discovers they don't ship to the US/UK/Sweden/Canada//Jamaica/Kenya/Australia/Russia/Suriname/Brazil. Whatever. Pick your choice country that isn't Japan. Sad newbie lolita! Then newbie lolita discovers this totally amazin' thing called a "shopping service" where - gasp! - people can buy clothes for you AND THEN SEND THEM TO WHERE YOU LIVE OUTSIDE OF JAPAN - for a fee, of course. And the newbie lolita looks for just the right service using the *magical search bar* that's handily-dandily located to the left of the newest EGL posts. Presto, newbie discovers Celga/Crescent/etc. Bu they have of the bad reviews! OH NO! What is newbie lolita to DO?

| Kids Yoyo Carnival Replicas |
[Nov. 7th, 2009|01:55 am] |
I did a search but didn't really come up with useful information. Or any information at all, actually. I know these Carnival replicas from Kids Yoyo have been out for a while now, I haven't really seen any reviews of it. I've been eyeing it for a while, and also trying to figure out if it's something I would be comfortable actually wearing. But mainly trying to figure out what the quality is like.
Do any of you girls have this replica dress (or skirt/JSK)? Do you have any of your own pictures? How does the quality seem in terms of finishing details? What's the fabric like? Is the skirt very full, as in comparable to real AP?
Oh, and which taoboa service did you use, and did you have a good experience with them?
thank you for your time.
Edit: I'm actually especially interested to see any pics of the PinkxWhite, BluexWhite or BlackxPink versions, as those are the ones I don't think I've seen around. |

| Today I met Scott Westerfeld, Holly Black and Cassandra Clare... in church. |
[Nov. 7th, 2009|02:40 am] |
Today I sat in a church and met Scott Westerfeld ( my literary hero), Cassandra Clare (um.... Still not King?), and Holly Black (Spiderwick Chronicles & things).
IT WAS AWWWWWWWWSOMEEEEEEEEEE.
I LOVE SCOTT.
It sounds like things went better than in Ottawa, Cassie seemed enthused to be there (unlike reportedly in Ottawa), and Scott agreed to have my babies to the entire room while Q & A from a basket. It was all pretty awesome-hilarious. First he said, to my question and then to my "Also: will you have my babies?",
"Yes. And no."
Then he expounded and realized that I had somehow searched his brain for hidden messages in his first book and agreed that he should have my babies. HAPPIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
I also have his autograph now, saying,
"To Rabby, It was so nice to meet you, even though it means having your BABIES! -Scott Westerfeld"
Hee! ^_^ Mad lorve.
I loved his lecture on illustration, because I have heard that lecture before, but never from an author - always from an illustrator. Being one myself, and training to become one, it meant a lot to me.
He had his artist's illu book with him but it was too busy to pause and look through it. Especially with a billion books to deal with. T_T;
But it wasn't until past 10:30 that we got signed and could leave, and 1 when we got home. Still, I wouldn't DARE EVER take it back. It was so fun and full of laughter and I think overall everyone had a good time. I felt bad for Holly Black because I had nothing for her to sign but the moleskine I bought earlier today for that very purpose, and she and CC both signed their first chapter sneak peeks for me. :D
Also asked Scott (because I'm not up to date) if he had figured out the third title, and he told me Goliath was what he was currently working with. It's fitting. ^^ Better than... Zuu or whatever it was. Zuz? Yeah... That wasn't working for me either... ^^;
It was also cool to see the Japanese AGURISU cover and illu. It was very happy making.
It was all AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWESOME and I have most of it recorded, I think, so long as it worked. I loved it. If he ever comes back, I need to see him again. ^_^
THANK YOU, SCOTT! |
