new pair of converse all stars...

i came home yesterday and found a big package on the floor... it was mine ^^

although i already know what it was... i opened the box with curiosity... in the big box i found a bag, a key chain, a chapstick, some order receipts and a small shoe box... ^^ the converse shoes i've ordered!!

they were on sale and i've ordered them from frontrunner.nl :)

it was free shipping for an order of 25eur and up... and the shipping was fast... i ordered thursday night, shipped on friday and received it on monday... the whole process only took 3 working days ^^ i love shops with fast handling and shipping <3

the shoes itself are nice too... i like em... though i like my other pair (which i posted a while back...) more ^^

my first asos order received ^^

i lack time... i wish time went slower, i wish we had longer days... :X there are so many things i want to do, but they end up on my waiting list...

i want to post more on this blog, but i can't... i even want to start a new blog with a different subject... but i'm too busy... might not be the right time to start...

it's funny how i had too much time in the past... and now...

anyways... i was happy to find my asos package... it had been waiting for me on the table in the livingroom... i haven't really been there the last few days... -_-



what's in the package? it's a tiny little black heart shaped purse... it's so cute...





i ordered this the 12th of this month... got shipped out the next day... and i've probably received it 2 days ago... 25th... i've chosen for the standard shipping... which cost me 3 euro's and they stated on their website that the shipping will take 6 working days... close :) i can't follow my package with the standard shipping... should be able to trace it with the express shipping... that will cost 6 eur, and will take 3 working days for shipping... maybe i'll try that the next time... i'm quite satisfied with asos... good packaging... would order again...

i'm still waiting for 2 other packages... 1 is my wallet ^^ and the second one, which will hopefully arrive monday or tuesday... will be my new shoes :) i'll hope to blog about that when i receive these...

also... i still want to blog about my last yesstyle order... i didn't get much... i just ordered to get free shipping for my bfriend... since he returned his shirt, he had yesstyle credit to order other stuff... hopefully i have time to post his items here too ^^

and i'm still waiting for pictures from an online guyfriend, who orders at yesstyle too ^^ so hopefully i can post his items here too :D

hmmm what else... don't know... hope to post soon again... have a good day/night everyone!!

returning items to yesstyle is no fun...

i have to admit they have fast service... whenever i have a question, i always have gotten a fast reply...

like i said before, i had to return a shirt that i had in my last order... because it didn't fit... 1. we had to pay the shippingcost from here, the netherlands, back to yesstyle, which was around 10eur... and 2. because my order wasn't above the 150usd after returning the shirt... i had to pay for the shipping cost aswell... which is 16 usd -_-

so the shirt was 62usd... and i had to pay around 30 usd in total... so i only gained around 50% back... that's sad -_-

make sure you'll never have to return something... make sure you fit everything before ordering! the reason i decided to get a refund is because it wasn't an extreme cheap shirt...

new stuff...

i went to lelystad today for outlet shopping... ^^ it was fun, though i didn't find much nice stuff... i went there with the intention to find a few pair of new jeans... and maybe some flats... but i came back with other stuff... :P

i got converse shoes... haven't own a pair since i was a kid... this pair is nice and simple... which suits my taste... and ofcourse black -_- can't deny it... i love black... and it was only 35eur





and i got these adidas by stella mccartney sweatshirt ^^ it's really cute... ^^ look at the lace detail... it has a big hood too... i got this for only 19eur... :O







and last... hehe... lindor chocolateh!! ^^ yummie... my favorite one... the straciatella (light blue)!! <3



other than the new stuff i bought... i got a new wallpaper on my phone ^^ <3

my first tattoo ^^



i've wanted a tattoo for a long time (let's say around 4 years)... but didn't get one untill now, because i wasn't sure about what i wanted... since i have to wear it for the rest of my life...

last month i came up with an idea... and had let it designed by chinese calligraphy artist ngan (nganfineart.com)... helpful, very friendly and fast... it took her less than a week to make my design... and it wasn't that expensive as well...

then i took the design to a tattoo artist (sakura tattoo @ amsterdam) to get it done... ^^ it was quick (5 minutes) and not painful...

how much (in total) i've spend on this tattoo? hmmm i think a bit less than 75eur...

i am loving it!!! my tattoo is a tiny chinese character on my wrist... which means "heart"... the reason behind it? i'll keep that for myself :)

still searching for a new wallet...

i need a new wallet... the one i'm using is already +/- 8 years old :O and since my wallet start to look more worn out, i've been looking for a new one...



around a month ago, i saw a really nice black leather wallet with zippers by michael kors... but at that time, i couldn't afford it yet... when i finally had the money... (one or two weeks later)... i couldn't find it anymore... it was sold out everywhere... since the store i went to, only carried two of those :(

i was disappointed, so went for the heels instead :O



but today... i discovered asos caries vivienne westwood items :O i've always liked some of her items (especially the items with her orbs!), but could never afford or find a store that i could buy from...

i saw these two... they are quite similar... the first one has a gold orb logo (not a big fan of gold...), leather material and has nicer compartments... the second one has a silver orb logo (love!), patent high shine material... and ok compartments... and i like the fact that this one is slightly smaller... (1x0,5cm smaller)... both wallets come in black...





i'm still deciding...

while i was checking out the wallets, i stumbled across this bracelet... <3 i love the vw orbs (can't say it enough)! and it has a bow too... (it's a bit expensive though -_-)

received yesstyle order (6)

1. "patch" appliqué hooded jacket
brand: l'miusa
size: one size
material: cotton and polyester
price: 28usd
color: black



thoughts while ordering:
i needed a long hoody and i love the collar of this hoody ^^ the patch gives it a schoolgirl kind of look, which i love...

thoughts after receiving:
this hoody is fantastic, just not great for this weather... :X because the fabric is really thick... and the inner-lining of the hood is really soft, fluffy and warm... better keep it till it gets colder again... can't wait to wear this... i love the collar of this hoody, and the fact that it's a long sweater... the patch though... is actually a pin... i do like the patch, but i'm actually quite happy it's a pin, so i can remove it, to fit more different styles... the pockets of this hoody is amazing ^^ i love the pockets, they are nice and big... perfect for girls with a smaller hip, which i'm actually not... :X







there are thumb holes, but the sleevs are actually too short for me... so putting my thumbs through feels uncomfy... :X



2. ruched sleeveless top
brand: puffy
size: one size
material: cotton
price: 16,20usd
color: black



thoughts while ordering:
i just thought it would look very cute with shorts... and since i love to wear shorts during summer... the weather here is getting better... can't wait to get this ^^

thoughts after receiving:
this shirt doesn't look good on me, it somehow makes me look big, it looks much cuter on the model than on me... though the shirt is comfortable... and since it's so loose, great for the hot weather...







3. lace-up platform wedges (i have no idea why they named these wedges)
brand: kawo
size: 39
material: polyurethane
price: 38usd
color: black



thoughts while ordering:
i'm normally not a big fan of shoes showing heels... because my heels doesn't look that pretty... but these shoes are looking really nice... it looks like a suede kind of material... and it's laced up :) which i like... and the style is very neutral, i think it can fit different styles of clothing... and besides... check out the price... it's very reasonable...

thoughts after receiving:
these shoes look adorable cute, they look amazing... the outside of the shoe is made from a fake suede fabric... the shoe has a nice patten with stitches and round cutouts on it... the heels are laced up in the front and has a zipper on the inner side... it has a 12cm high heel and a 2,5cm platform... they feel comfortable on my feet... BUT... these shoes are kind of hard to walk on :O maybe it's because of the "open heel" part, or just the sole... i feel like it's wiggling a bit... this is what i experienced, when i wore these to work... i always have to walk 5 to 10 minutes from the bus stop to work...





when i reached home, i took a good look at the shoes... and i noticed that the heel isn't straight :X that must be a factor too why these shoes walk unstable...



i like steady heels more, so i can run in them when i need to... or at least be able to walk on them for hours... these heels are tiring for me...

4. lace-up sandals
brand: kawo
size: 39
material: polyurethane
price: 25usd
color: black



thoughts while ordering:
i am just looking for nice flats to wear... i'm wearing more flats than ever... i got my own reasons for that :P though i still love my high heels... and still love to wear them... these flats are really cute and casual... just need more of these... and for that price ^^ hope they're comfy though...

thoughts after receiving:
these shoes are cute... and on top of that, they are extremely comfortable! :O i'm loving it... the straps don't cut my skin etc. Very casual and great for this season... Nothing more to say about these shoes...







i know i've mentioned this already, but...

yesstyle shoes run small!! i usually wear a size 37,5 to 38 eur size (mostly a 38, just because it's hard to get a 37,5 here in the netherlands)... i always order 1 to 1,5 size bigger from yesstyle... in korean size i always order 245 and eur size, i always get the 39... the 39s are sometimes a little bit loose, but still good to wear... and the 245 is mostly fitted well... this is based on all the shoes i got from yesstyle... i think i've got around 8 pair of shoes from them... including the shoes i got from this order...

5. v-neck tee
brand: rakun
size: XL
material: cotton
price: 62usd
color: black



this was actually a shared order again ^^

but too bad the shirt he got didn't fit well, it was too small, though he got the biggest size they got... and since it wasn't the cheapest shirt out there, we decided to send it back... so i e-mailed yesstyle about it, and i can get a refund... i have to say that i'm quite surprised about their quick reply... since i e-mailed them in the weekend :O now i just have to fill in the form and send it back... they say that they will refund as soon as they receive the unwanted product... i wonder how smooth things will go, and how long this will take... i'll try to keep it updated here.

details in short:
received the package on 7 juli
e-mailed yesstyle about the item on 10 juli
received a reply on 11 juli
we are going to send it back as soon as possible

what else... hmmm i also got some freebies with this order... a bracelet, which is totally not my style, probably going to give it to my mom or something... ^^



and i got the yesstyle x lecontebleu t-shirt... i received one of these before... and it's one of the 3 tees that was send to me to do a series of tee recon video's ^^ so soon a video with this tee :)

received yesstyle order (5) part 2

finally got the time to take the pictures ^^ and finally a working photoshop :D as promised... the items i got... not much though...

the items i got:

1. zipped hoody
brand: beige
size: one size
material: cotton
price: 55usd
color: black



this jacket looks just as i expected... ^^ it fits nicely and the pockets are great ^^ the jacket got 2 long zippers... one to open the jacket... and the other can act like a pocket... ^^ i can put like my id card or traveling card in there ^^ cause i like to put my hands in the normal pockets, so it's easily to loose things if i keep them in there... :) the only thing is, that the fabric on the back feels really thin... but i guess it's great for this season...







2. biker zip jacket
brand: catworld
size: one size
material: nylon and cotton
price: 25usd
color: black



i like this jacket a lot, it was kind of cheap... and very cute... the studs are nice push-click-buttons... and the zippers on the sleevs are really nice :) the only thing about this jacket is, that's really short... it's like a really cropped jacket... but it looks nice anyways, with a thight and simple little black dress... shorts or just simply jeans ^^

received yesstyle order (5) part 1

it's been a while again since i've posted... :X but i've been really busy (i know, i keep saying this... it shouldn't be an excuse)... i finally had time to make videos 11-12 june... while i wanted to record another video on the saterday, after i uploaded my yesstyle tee to loose dress video... my macbook crashed! :O my harddisk died on me, *sobsob*, so i lost everything :( luckily i managed to upload at least one video, which i've spend most time on, before my hd died :X but all the other video's i made that friday and all the not yet uploaded video's... are all gone... -_-

so last tuesday, i got myself a new macbook... (don't get me wrong, i'm not rich, my computer is really like a third hand for me, and i can't work without one... i'm glad my parents are feeding me again, so i don't have to live on breadcrumbles for the next few years)... i still want to fix my old macbook though... i have to buy a new harddisk... and wait for my best friend to install it...

but the main thing of this post... dan dan dan dan... i shared an order again... my items are sponsored... and he paid for his own shirts... yes! i shared an order with a male, so finaly some about male clothes on yesstyle...

in this post i'll only show the items he got, cause i haven't had the time yet to make any pictures of my stuff... and i don't have photoshop installed yet :( so i can't crop, resize and blur out the background... @ home... sooo... a part 2 will be comming up later...

the items he got:

1. v-neck tee
brand: green label
size: L
material: cotton
price: 55usd
color: black



it's a really nice v-neck with details on the shoulder... what he has to say about this:"Beautiful casual shirt. It's only a little bit short...", i have to agree with him... it really is a bit short on him... he's around 175cm. other than that, it fits him perfectly... i measured him before ordering... ^^



2. long-sleeve pocket top
brand: nannom
size: one size
material: polyester and cotton
price: 36.40usd
color: black



it's a long long-sleeve with grey pockets... what he has to say about this:"I like the long loose fit style and the pockets make it a unordinary longsleeve
You can wear it on any kind of occation and combine it with all kinds of other clothing from baggy sweatpants or skinny jeans.", well said... i have nothing to add... :D





more these kinds of post about male clothing will be comming up... :) not sure when yet though...

have a nice day everyone ^^
