New items I got from Fanplusfriend!

Yay! My order from Fanplusfriend finally showed up today. I placed the order on February 18th, and they shipped it out on February 26th. In all fairness to them, they were on holiday until the 21st, so they were probably a little backed up. The good thing about ordering from them during the holiday was that everything was discounted (either 10 or 20 percent, I can't remember). It took 5 business days after they shipped it for it to get here, which is about what I expected.

Here is what I ordered:

Petticoat:

I ordered this steep prop pannier. After I placed the order, I asked on the main egl community if anyone had it, and I got some not so good reviews from people. However, I think it looks pretty good. It's not so fluffy that I'm worried about knocking things over, and there is a layer of some kind of mesh fabric on top so that the steep prop doesn't show.

 

In the package

This isn't a great picture, but I couldn't really get a good one.

Here it is under a skirt.

Overall, I'd give it a 6/10. I like it, the shape is good and it feels very light. The steel prop isn't really adjustable like they say on the website, you can adjust it a tiny bit, but any more than that and it pops out of the piece that connects the ends together, and you have to push it back together. I have to wear it a few inches lower than my natural waist because it's a little short, but that's really my fault, I probably should have ordered the medium length on instead of the short one. The waist allowance is very forgiving, which is nice. It's easy to sit down in too. 

Socks!

These are so adorable!They are cream colored, which is nice because my wardrobe has off-white instead of white. The little roses are so pretty, and I especially love the ribbons printed on them.

I got these for my Alice in Wonderland outfit. They are a soft blue, and the detail is medium blue. They match really well with the skirt. 

Lace Gloves

These are just some simple off-white lace gloves. They are really cute, but a bit big on me, as gloves almost always are. (I have really tiny hands). They are cute, and would be good for a spring daytime outfit, say a walk in the garden or a garden party.

Bowknot Present Necklace

It came in the sweetest little box!

Unfortunately, no matter what I did, I wasn't able to get a decent picture of it. It's so cute though, it's a little present box.

I've been a little busy lately, but I do have some new things coming up. My cucumber sandwich recipe/tutorial is coming soon, and I am going to have other tutorials, I promise! I also want to start doing more outfit posts, not just Lolita stuff, but my regular outfits too. 

Alice in Wonderland comes out tomorrow, I can't wait! I will post my Alice movie outfit soon!
