Taobaospree + shoes!

Once again I have been a terrible fashion blogger, and neglected this space o(╥﹏╥)o.
However to compensate, I come to you with a kind of review/haul/look at my pretty shoes kind of post!
Yay (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ .

Now I actually have many more posts in the making, I am just writing them all slowly as to make sure they are the best I could possibly produce. I see no point in creating something mediocre just for the sake of doing it!
This post stems from items i recently acquired, I was just so excited about receiving them! 

Basically I ordered from Taobao a few months back (and took a million days to actually pay for all the different sections because I earn a poor, poor amount (╯︵╰,) ) from a different shopping service than last time: 'Taobaospree'.

Now before I begin, I completely recommend using this service over all others. They charge a perfectly reasonable amount as their percentage, and are insanely helpful when (like me) you have no idea what you are doing. I must have sent about 15 emails double and triple checking about the prices, and making sure I got the form filled out correctly and Cici (The person who was working with me in the company) was so sweet and helpful and made sure I was completely at ease.


I wasn't actually expecting to write this review so soon, but after I made the last payment, it must have been less than a week before my items arrived. I was so shocked. Amazing! No complaints from me anyhow!

This time in my Taobao haul, I ordered 2 pairs of shoes (~ ̄▽ ̄)~. In the future I would really like to order clothes and accessories too but for now, these will definitely do! 



My legs look so weird..

The shoes themselves are great. Sturdy, well made and quite light in comparison to their platform, whilst maintaining the weight associated with quality. Taobaospree even included two pairs of off white lace ankle socks for free, which was such a sweet touch. With sizing, they are exactly what you order. They don't run small which is common in a lot of asian bought shoes.



Both are super comfy and I can certainly imagine myself wearing them for long periods of time with no trouble at all. This is actually a running theme with all of my Taobao-bought shoes. They are such good quality for the price!



To catch you up on other areas of my life: 
  • Uni applications are becoming depressing, after being rejected from two. However I still haven't heard from two, so fingers crossed! If all else fails, I can always try my luck in clearance, right?
  • I got a really shit tattoo, which I then got covered up with a cute heart, so thats cool :P. (Always research your tattooist, friends).
  • I am going to Secret Garden Party this year! If anyone else is, be sure to comment or message so we can meet up and get fucked! 〜(^∇^〜)(〜^∇^)〜
  • I am also attending Hyper Japan this summer! Once again, hit me up y'all! I am also going to apply for the fashion show so fingers crossed for that >.<. I am thinking Visual Kei/ Oshare kei and Cult Party Kei...
  • I am planning (yet another) tattoo! It is going to be some Ayabie lyrics from their song 'TheMe', which mean a hell of a lot to me. They will be going down inside my forearm in the traditional Japanese way (going down and backwards, not left to right) over my scars. (Lame I know lol).

I will really try my best to write blog posts for you guys, and for myself. I am still struggling with myself for many reasons, and now all my friends at work are leaving to go to Hull :'). However I shall just use this as a chance to just write more! Do more of what I love. 

じゃあ、また ! !
