I finally got my TaoBao order....
I was so so sooo excited for this to come, I had found the perfect fabric (pictures bellow) and all I could thing about was making it into a dress.....
The Parcel on the other hand seem to have different ideas on the matter.
First off it goes to Edinburgh....you know 364 odd miles AWAY from where I live....
Next my tracking says it is getting redirected to the correct depo.....I though ok I will have it tomorrow. It is fine, just got on the wrong van..happens all the time right??
Boy was I wrong...
It ended up BACK at the same depo....
I started to think Yoybuy had made a mess here some how...accentually typing the wrong letter in my post code or something. I contacted both Parcel Force and Yoybuy,,,,Yoybuy wasn't very helpful but hey what can they do over the other side of the world...wasn't too fussed...
Parcel Force?
Well they got back nice and fast on twitter as normal..Aparently it was an error witht the mechanical sorting machine....oh...ok fine simple fix. right?
She told me I would get it tomorrow and not to worry about it really....
Tomorrow comes "being redirected to correct depo"
YAY!....right?
15:19 The next day...."PROCESSING IN EDINBURGH"
.......Seriously????
Somehow it managed to finally get delivered yet another day later....
It seems that yoybuy put the wrong postcode onto it in the start..
OH WELL
I have my things finally and can get making
I got 10 meters of this printed lame dot chiffon fabric
It is sooooo pretty and ever soo soft....almost don't want to use it
I also got 10 meters of lace to go with it....Of course 10 for one dress is a little tooo much but never too much lace
I brought some gloves and a necklace from Rose Marria.
They are so pretty
I can't wait to wear them with everything
The necklace will match my Innocent World dress perfectly I think
The gloves are the new version of them, The ones before had just a bow and a cameo but these are much more prettier and cute....Although they kinda sound like my cat's collar with the little bells
Got this blouse and some tights too!
The blouse has been on my list for some time now and just sitting there waiting to be ordered.
It is lovely, soft, I couldn't wait to wear it!
I decided to wear it on a sort of windy day too...However it was a lot thicker than I thought and held up well against the wind
I had a very similar pair of tights like thiese before that sadly fell apart from so much wear!
When I was looking though TaoBao when I was looking for fabric I suddenly remebered that I really needed some tights to go with lolita and remeber all the cute shear tights I have seen recently.
I have a bunch more on my list to order next time!
Last but not least is this silly little desk cady
When we was packing everything up to go into storage for the refurbishment, I realised just how little storage I had on the desks, So I had to get this!
It is so silly looking,,..
It came with 4 separators so can really hold anything...
Well I guess that was it....
Lots of stuff and lots now to do!
I really don't know why this time it had to just end up all wrong but....fingers crossed my next shipment though parcelforce won't end badly......
But that will be a post later!
