REVIEW: TBS, Infanta Powers and Thrones JSK, Chess Story Le Jardin de Versailles, KIRAKIRA, Luna

[sanakanami.livejournal.com]

Hello EGL! Here is a review of my first TaoBao order, via TBS. It's pretty long (and includes a good deal of venom in one section) so it is divided into sections to make reading easier. Reading it in a new tab would probably be best, the format is less compressed that way.

( Thus begins the adventure of the little box from China )

Whew! Hope this wall of text proves useful to someone!

I think these would make some EXCELLENT border prints!! (WARNING: taxidermy!)

...and maybe some of the ones we've seen recently have been influenced by them??

( More creepy than cute? You decide... )

Thoughts?

Questions!

Hey everyone! I'm new here, and have spent a while looking at everyone's wardrobes. They are amazing!
Anyway, I have a few questions.
I am looking at getting my first dress and was wondering what things I should keep in mind? I've done a little bit of research, but I'm still not 100% sure! and I don't want to spend a lot of money just to find out it's not what I want.
Right now, I think I want to give sweet a try, so any recommendations for slightly less expensive things (just because it's my first) would be great :) I think something simple for my first would be good.
Sorry if this made no sense D:
and please let me know if this isn't allowed!
Thank you! ^_^
