I decided to jumpstart this virtual diary by posting my new Lolita items that came in the mail yesterday! On 3/28/11 I went on the Internet and bought a pretty Classic Lolita skirt and a plain blouse from Bodyline. They took two full days to get to Idaho from Japan; I was soooo excited because I finally had another Lolita outfit to wear! It’s called “Lovely Victoria” (hence the title) since the floral print on the skirt made me think of the Victorian Era.
My skirt can be seen below:
My blouse can be seen below:
When ordering, my biggest fear was that the blouse wouldn’t fit me at all. Even though I’d measured myself in centimeters (with the help of mom) according to Bodyline's size chart two times in a row it was a gamble as to whether or not they would truly be right. I also worried that the huge bow in the middle wasn't a detachable one. Thankfully those worries turned out to be wrong! Yes, the blouse fits perfectly and yes, the bow is detachable. I absolutely loved the speedy delivery to my doorstep. As I said before, it took only TWO DAYS to get to Idaho from Japan! Plus – the people at Bodyline even sent me a handy tracking code that I could use at all times to see where the destination checkpoints were. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase and plan on buying from Bodyline again.
