Review: "Alice in Wonderland" book bag by Re-Style.pl

Hello my dearest readers,

today I have a new review for you. I bought the "Alice in Wonderland" book bag at Re-Style.pl, this is my second bag from this site (I also own the "Watch bag" in black, but the small version). Last week I saw an entry on Quini Maze's blog about the new book bag of Re-Style.pl and I fell directly in love with it. (Well, I already have so many bags, but I just love "Alice in Wonderland" stuff and combined with a book bag = PERFECTION! <3)

Link: Book Bag "Alice in Wonderland" - Black
Order date: 12.02.2015
Order shipped on: 13.02.2015
Order receivement: 17.02.2015
Shipping time: 4 working Days (sunday was in between)
Payment via: Paypal
Shipping via: DHL

User surface of the site: 5/5
The site itself is constructed user-friendly: the article pictures are very good and the structure is clear. They have pictures of their products from alomost every site and well made categories. So, surfing and searching is easy on the site.
Contact: 4/5
The contact was great, right after I set my order I received a confirment e-mail and later more e-mails, that my article was packed and shipped. I only give a minus point, because I got no tracking number from the site itself. But they gave me an estimated delivery date. (I got the tracking number later from DHL itself per E-Mail.)
Article Quality: 5/5
The quality of the bag is awesome! The fabric (faux leather) is very thick and looks sturdy. The print on the bag is very well printed and I can see no mistakes. The attachements for the strap also seem stable. The closing device of the bag works very well, so you can walk around with it safely. The bag came with also three mini bags on the inner (one can be closed with a zipper). And the bag can be worn in two different ways.
Conclusion: 5/5
Overall I'm very happy with second bag from Re-Style.pl. It's bigger than my other two book bags and I bet it will look great with a Lolita outfit, but it's also wearable with a normal outfit. (I would definitly buy again from the site, they also have many other gorgeous items.)

 - The bag arrived packed in a jiffy bag -

So, I hope you like my review. If you have any questions about the bag just feel free to aks me.

New Year: Christmas, Lolita meet ups & Welcome 2015 (picture heavy)

Hello my dearest readers,

well, it's been a longer time since my last entry again and a lot of things happened. I just had no time to post something during the last weeks. >__<''

So, first of all: HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! ^_^/
I hope you had a great start into 2015 and maybe you're excited what this year will bring. I'm very excited and I also made some new years resolutions:

1. Be more positive

2. Eat clean and do more sports

3. Handle my time in a better way

I'll see, if can an do it and if I'll be able to stick to these resolutions! How about you? Do you have any new years resolutions?
My new years evening itself was great! Me and my boyfriend had a small party in our flat together with beloved friends and my mother. We ate tasty food, played games and just had fun! :) And so we all had a nice start into 2015!

And now back to the days around christmas:
It was planned to visit the Christmas Lolita meet up in Bremen, but I wasn't able to go there. Instead I visited the Christmas Lolita meet up in Hannover, which was one day later. The meet up itself was lovely and I had a lot of fun that day. I would like to show you some pictures, but I still don't have the pictures of the meet up. But I can show you my outfit: finally I managed a satisfying coord with my beloved Chess Chocolate! <3

 Outfit rundown:

Headbow: Angelic Pretty

Cutsew: Angelic Pretty

Dress: Angelic Pretty

Socks: Angelic Pretty

Shoes: Bodyline

Accessories: Offbrand

Christmas itself was awesome! Well, I wasn't in christmas mood before it started, because the days before were more stressful than relaxing. But I had a lovely 24th december evening with my love and I got so awesome presents! ;////; <3 For example the artbook "Art of Alice: Madness returns", which is my favorite game!

On the 25th december we visited his parents, spent a nice day at their house with eating and relaxing and on the third day of christmas we drove to my hometown, where we visited my family. That meant again eating, relaxing, awesome christmas presents and I also met my beloved friend Berrii again! <3 We both had a small Lolita meet up with our boyfriends, we took some pretty pictures in a park (Damn!! It was so cold... x''D) and later we went to a Café. I was so happy to spent some time with her again! Here are a few pictures (yes, I was dressed up in Chess Chocolate again. ;3)

 - Pictures with Berrii and my outfit! -

On the 29th december we drove back to our flat and prepared everything for the new years evening.

I hope you all had a wonderful christmas time and a great new years evening! :D

Yours,

Zhenya

PS: I also made a "Get ready with me" video again about my Chess Chocolate outfit:

Lolita Meet up: A picnic in May

Good evening my lovely readers,

last saturday were a small Lolita picnic from a local Lolita community. The weather god was nice to us this time, because during the last years we never had a picnic meet up - everytime we planned one, the weather changed from good to bad. This time we were lucky! <3
Everyone brought some tasty food and we enjoyed our day in the park. Just eating, talking and relaxing... of course we also took a few pictures.

Unfortunately I wasn't in the mood for pictures, because of unknown reasons I felt uncomfortable in my outfit. :/ (Now looking at it I like my outfit, I don't now what disturbed my mood that day...). Anyway, here are a few pictures from the meet up. (Sadly I forgot to take a picture of the yummy food we had.)

 - Our group: Mini, sora-ai, Lolizzy, Chi-Chan, Venedig, Manga-Girl and me -

- Funny group picture -

 - Mini, Chi-Chan and me -

 - Outfit -

Headbow, Apron-Skirt and Bag: Angelic Pretty

Blouse: Innocent World

Tights & Socks: Offbrand

Shoes: Secret Shop

Necklace: Promod

For the next meet up I hope I'll feel more comfortable in Lolita again. :') But the meet up itself was pretty nice.

Yours, 
Zhenya

PS: I hope I'll find some time to upload some more simple daily outfits again. The weather in Germany is getting better and hopefully I'll be more creative with my daily outfits.

Long time no see: Daily outfit & new headbow

Hello my dear readers,

'long time no see' is a very fitting title, because I haven't written here since... january. I'm sorry - life kept me busy and last month was the first convention of this year for me (the LBM/MCC in Leipzig) and I had to sew a lot for this event. Also nothing really Lolita related happened since january, which is very sad, because I really miss wearing Lolita. :'(

The first thing for today is my daily outfit - it's very comfortable and relaxing, but I'm wearing one of my favorite t-shirts. <3

 

 T-Shirt: Qwertee.com

Shorts: Primark

Tights: Offbrand

Shoes: Buffalo

The only really Lolita-related thing happend during the last few months is that I finally got my hands on the 'Chess Chocolate' Angelic Pretty headbow! A girl sold it on facebook and I couldn't resist, because I wanted to fitting headbow since I've got the dress. Now I'm the happy owner of a 'Chess Chocolate' set and I can't wait to wear all parts together.

I hope I can show you more Lolita-related stuff soon. :) Maybe I'll shoot my Chess Chocolate set next week, but I'm not quite sure... anyway! 

Enjoy your day, in Germany it's finally spring! <3

Yours,
Zhenya

My Lolita wardrobe 2014

Hello my beloved readers,

since 2014 started everyone is posting their Lolita wardrobes again and I've seen a lot so far. I really like taking a look at the Lolita wardrobes from others, because I like to see what kind of style they collect. :) I decided to make a wardrobe post, too - compared to others I don't have such a big Lolita wardrobe, but I'm more the type of collecting things, which I really want. I rarely do spontaneous buys. And I buy things to keep them, I just sold a few Lolita things so far.

I also don't have that much space for my Lolita stuff. We have some kind of a working room - where I have my laptop, sewing machine and things like this - and in that room I keep most of my Lolita clothes. They are next to my and my boyfriends cosplay stuff:

I hope I'll be able to change this situation of my Lolita clothes someday, but I think it might only happen, when we are living in a bigger flat someday. I only keep my Lolita shoes and clothes in the working room, accessories like necklaces, bracelets and more are in another room, but it's not necessary to show them, because I won't list them here. ^^;

Now on to my wardrobe: 

Cutsews, blouses and cardigans

- Cutsews (from left to right): Angelic Pretty, Camelie Fiolère & Metamorphose -

- White/Cremé blouses: Innocent World, Bodyline & Innocent World -

- Black blouses & my only brown cardigan: Angelic Pretty, Bodyline & Bodyline -

One pieces and jumperskirts

- Sailor dresses: Metamorphose, Innocent World & Baby the stars shine bright -

- Classic dresses: both Innocent World -

- Gothic dresses: both Alice and the Pirates -

- Sweet dresses: all Angelic Pretty -

 Skirts (I don't wear skirts often, so I don't have much)

- Normal skirts: Baby the stars shine bright & Alice and the Pirates -

- High waist skirts: Bodyline & a self made one -

Bags

- Black hearts on the left (up to down): Bodyline & H&M, Book bags: Angelic Pretty & Innocent World, Red heart and star bag: H&M & an Angelic Pretty Replica, Clock bag: Jawbreaker -

 Headdresses

- Hats: self made, Alice and the Pirates & a self made tricorn -

- Headbows and clips: upper line: all self made, second line: all Angelic Pretty, third line: golden Chocomint star clip, Angelic Pretty, Alice and the Pirates (with self made clips) & Innocent world -

 Socks and shoes

- Tights: black one with crosses (can't seen here) by Primark, Alice in wonderland tattoo tights bought on eBay, Socks: Alice and the Pirates, Angelic Pretty, Angelic Pretty, Innocent World, Innocent World & two offbrand short socks -

- Upper line: Deichmann, NewYorker, An-tai-nai, Baby the stars shine bright, Lower line: Secret Shop, Secret Shop, Bodyline, Offbrand Rocking Horses from eBay and black pumps by H&M -

So this is my Lolita wardrobe 2014, I have one item on the way and I think I still need a few more basics. I hope it's okay that I didn't show you my bloomers oder petticoats, but these are not that interesting. ^^'

How about you? Do you like looking at Lolita wardrobe posts? Or did you also made a wardrobe post (if yes, you could give me a link ^^)?

I wish you all a wonderful start into this new week!

Yours,

Zhenya

FBM 2013: Finally wearing Lolita again!

Hello my lovely readers,

today I want to write a few words about the bookfair in Frankfurt, which was around two weeks ago. It was my first time at the FBM and I was a little bit amazed. I have been quite a few times at the bookfair in Leipzig (LBM), but the FBM is bigger and has such great places for taking pictures. Even the LBM has more anime/manga/comic stuff, the FBM has a pretty "cosplay corner" and also booths with anime/manga figures and more. Besides that great location I had a lot of fun and a good time with my friends Fuwari and Romy (and of course the others I spent the weekend with). :)

And of course I finally had a chance to wear lolita again! I decided to go with my beloved Wonder Story apron skirt. <3 It's been a long time since I wore Sweet Lolita, so at first I felt a little strange in it, but this feeling changend quickly and I was very happy wearing it. Unfortunately I haven't seen a lot lolitas. :( 
Anyway, here are a few pictures:

 (Pictures by Tom_Green, Aonir & Romy)

On FBM sunday I was part of a super cute Tamako Market cosplay group. Fot those who don't know what it is: Tamako Market is an anime by KyoAni with a group of sweet girls - check out this for more: Tamako Market. I was so happy beeing part of this group, we took a lot of pretty pictures, had fun and I got filmed for the first time by a videographer! *_* (Check out his YouTube Channel: MexxKite) The video isn't online yet, I'll show you, when it is. But I can show you some pictures of our cosplay group and my cosplay from sunday:

- The girls are: Fuwari as Kanna, Chikara-chan as Tamako, Romy as Midori and me as Shiori (from left to right) - 

(Pictures by Romy, Fuwari and Aryana)

I was so happy that I could be Shiori in this group and I hope to cosplay with this girls again someday. <3
In conclusion: My FBM was awesome! I hope I'll be able to be there next year again.

I wish you all a wonderful evening and a great weekend!

Yours,
Zhenya

New Lolita stuff: Wonder Story is here

Hello my lovely readers,

I hope you are all fine. °~° 
I'm sorry for not writing many blog entries during the last time, but I'm still busy with university and also some things in my private life keep me away from my computer.

But today a dream came true! *_* <3 I always wanted Angelic Prettys' Wonder Story print, because I really love all 'Alice in wonderland' related things and Wonder Story is just gorgeous. But when the print was released I had no money to buy it. The print is also very popular and hard to get. And then... one evening I saw someone selling a Wonder Story Set (Apron Skirt + Headbow) on the german lolita site "Dunkelsüß" - There was my chance!!! 
Luckily I was the first in line, I had no money during that time, but she reserved it a few days until I have the money and today the postman brought to me.

Well, now I'm one of the happiest girls in the world! *_*<3 There it is! Beautiful as expected, so cute and in my dream color - light blue:

- The set: Apron skirt & headbow (Sorry for the bad lightning) -

The seller also gave a bracelet and two hairpins as an extra with the package:

- Bracelet and two "AP" hairpins, soo cute -

And here's a picture when I tried it on:

- I apologize for being a barefoot lolita, but it was just a short try on ^^' Anyway, I'm so happy that it fits me! <3 -

I my Wonder Story set from Yuzuki, she's a great seller! After my money was on her bank account she sent it so fast, it only took 24hrs and it was here. :D Yes, it was in the same country, but I also had cases, when sending took a few days in the same country. 

Now, I hope I'll get a chance to wear this as a complete outfit soon. Maybe during the Connichi (a big convention here in Germany) next month. :)

Have a nice day everyone!

Best wishes,

Zhenya

PS: To my german readers - Are you going to visit the Connichi in September? :3

That was my LBM 2013

Hello my lovely readers,

now it's time for an entry about my days in Leipzig at the bookfair this year. First of all: it was a great weekend and I had three (almost four) amazing days in Leipzig. 
Thanks to all I've met at the LBM! ♥ And a big thanks to Sarah (Romy) and Jasmin (Fuwari), who were great flat-mates. ♥

Last thursday my boyfriend, Sarah and I startet around 12 o'clock and drove to Leizipg. At first we went to our flat, it was already 3 pm, so there was not much time left for visiting the bookfair. But, after unpacked our bags in the flat, we took the train and went to the bookfair. 
We only had around two hours left and checked the things from the retailers in the Anime/Manga/Japan area. There were so many things and I love collecting pretty Anime/Manga figures. My boyfriend bought me a super cute Orihime Inoue (BLEACH) figure! *_*♥

Then friday! Finally wearing a cosplay again! I wore my Ranka Lee stage outfit (know as the 'Miss Macross' dress). We arrived before noon and it was so empty, so we used the time to take photos. The light was great and we made very pretty pictures. :)
The rest of the day we just walked around, met some friends and visited the retailers area again. 
In the evening finally my cosplay partner Saskia (Inulein) arrived, she made a Sheryl Nome cosplay. We had a little photoshoot again and I'm so happy with the pictures, that came out. *^*
Later we went to the main station and waited for Jasmin. Back in our flat we cooked noodles and watched TV.

Saturday was the day I most wated for, because I wore my new cosplay, my dream cosplay: Alice Liddell in her 'Silk Maiden' dress. This cosplay was hard work and I'm so happy that I could finally wear it. And I was so happy about the compliments I got for it! Thank you very much! ♥
We spent the whole saturday in the main hall, because it was so full. We met a lot of friends and took pictures.
In the evening, after we changed into our normal clothes, we went to the city and at Pizza in a nice restaurant. :)

Sunday was the last day of the bookfair and I wore my 'Chess Chocolate' JSK, but unfortunately my wig did not what I wanted... and so I was very unhappy with my hairstyle. :(
Anyway, we used the time in the morning againg for a little photoshoot. And we went to the retailers area again. I bought myself a cute Sayaka Miki (Mahou shojo madoka magica) figure.
I met a lot of friends again and took some pictures with them. But I felt unhappy with me in Lolita that day, maybe conventions are better for cosplay. I'm not sure about this at the moment...
Around 4 pm we left the bookfair and started our tour back home.

It was a great LBM and I'm very excited about making new cosplays, I already have a lot of plans. :)
I'm so happy that I met a lot of friends. Well, the not everything was perfect, but I hope I can change these things, so that the next convention will be better. :)

If you are interested you can find all my pictures from the LBM here: --> Klick!

Have a nice evening and weekend!

Yours Zhenya
