RETURNED TO MY TARGET


I purchased a few Rodarte for Target pieces when shoppers were in frenzied anticipation of the release of the collaboration online and of course I wasn't able to try anything on.

So, I'm selling all the dresses I bought that were too big for me. The whole collection SOLD OUT online within 24 hours of availability. Dresses were selling for $100+ on ebay, but I don't want to pay listing fees at the moment.

If you want something, just shoot me an e-mail because I sometimes miss twitter @replies.

U.S. residents only, paypal only, and the shipping shouldn't be any more than about $7. I will ship the dress out the next business day after receiving payment and provide you with a tracking number.

wishlist #2 complete 01.13.10 at 9pm

My new favorite webstore is Filthy Magic.  It is updated practically every single day, which is awesome, but very very bad for my shopaholic self.  I've been hooked after my first two dress & accessory purchases from them.  The selections are very trendy, great quality, great fit, and what you see on the models is what you get.  In addition, they have begun to offer different sizes on some items.

Currently their promotions are:
FREE SHIPPING ON ALL ORDERS OVER $75 & 15% OFF PURCHASE WITH THE CODE "COCKTAILCHIC."


Anyways, I'm compiling my second wishlist since I already purchased everything that I wanted last night, but they updated again this morning ^_^.

5. various pattern sheer leggings in zebra pattern C - $18


6. lace side tights - $21


7. thigh high boots in black suede size 7 - $70


8. ankle wrap heeled combat boots in size 7 - $70


9. cutout wedges in black size 7 - $64 (i think i have too many cute/sexy black cut-out shoes X_X. at least they're not gladiators though. love the way it looks w/ stockings. the grey would look silly w/o tights) SOLD OUT :((((


10. ragamuffin wedges in red size 7 - $70 (still thinking about these booties)

When I'm done paying off last month and this month's debt...in like 2-3 months, i'm gonna make a bulk shoe order and I hope the shoes I want are still there *crosses fingers.* Also, I wanna see how the shoes that I've ordered fit because maybe i'm a size 8 in korean shoes.

7th-Dec-2009 12:19 pm - Wishlist
12.26.09 1:37AM wishlist fulfilled mostly by yours truly (& my BF :3) lol.

This wishlist doesn't really have much of a purpose because a) I don't really want anyone I'm not buying something for to get me something because it'll just make me feel guilty and b) I'm so used to buying everything that I want without asking other ppl for it. I guess it's just to keep track of what I want and buy whatever my BF doesn't purchase. The list is free of any forever21 items (that list is on my blackberry) because I clearly can handle that on my own, but a giftcard from there would be helpful. This is the first x-mas my wishlist has been technology free. Already bought myself a laptop, an ipod nano, a gps, and 2 digicams previous Christmases.

(Cross-posted here.)***

I decided that I should try to get sell some of the more expensive and UNWORN items from my lolita and visual-kei wardrobe. I've had these items in my closet for awhile now, and they're ALL BRAND NEW WITH/Without TAGS & unworn (except for my digicam, which has been gently used for taking myspace pictures).

REASONABLE OFFERS FROM THE STATES ARE WELCOME. Please ask any questions that you have about my items. Offers from the U.S. ONLY.

I prefer paypal.

SWEET LOLITA STYLE:

SELLING:

1. 3-strap lolita heels in LIGHT PINK: (Like the ones that Kana has in red<3. I really love these shoes, but they're too tight for me because I'm usually a US 8. These shoes are soo versatile because they can be worn in a lolita or japan street style. These shoes have been discontinued from the manufacturer I bought them from. They're the cutest thing ever! the straps are soo unique because they hook to gold pieces on the side of the shoes)
The actual shoes (light pink ones):

VISUAL KEI/GOTHIC LOLITA STYLE:

4. G.L.P. pinstripe and rhinestones black dress-set: (I wanted to wear this for Versailles, but whatever...it can be worn as a dress-set or worn separately. It is a corset top and petticoat-style skirt. If you only want the top or the bottom...I'll think about it).

Size: MEDIUM (color: black, bust: 70cm, skirt:35cm, top:39cm)
Desired amount $50+

5. K.star Punk pink, coffin and chains mini-dress with spiderweb lace overlay: (This one has been slightly altered in the back. I added safety pins and black satin ribbon because it is a little bit loose on me. I removed the belt because I didn't like the way it looked, but I can include the belt with the dress. The shoulder straps also detach if you want them to. I had removed the tag because I had planned on wearing it for Otakon 2007, but I ended up not wearing it.).

The double-strap right here un-snaps. Includes double strap belt in 3rd photo.

DIY (I can remove the back-corsetting though if you don't like it). The shoulder cuffs are asymmetrical. The side that is connected with the chain hangs lower on your arms.
Size: One Size fits US S/M
Desired amount: $50+

6. Algonquins striped cotton, red and black bubble dress with "ROCK LIKE FUCK" in silver: (I love this dress too, but after several months of owning it, I still haven't worn it yet. The tag was recently removed because I had planned on wearing it for Anime Next 2008, but I ended up wearing something completely different. It's also reversible. The "Rock Like Fuck" can be worn on the front or the back. It would look really cute paired with some striped stockings as well).

Size: Medium
Desired amount: $50+More Lolita & V-kei Items for SALE )

7. patent neon pink stacked boots. 7" platform heel. men's size 5, women's size 7. desired amount: $50
i wore them 1 time to a rock show & received a ton of compliments on them, but this really isn't my style anymore.
So anyone who talks to me or reads my surveys will know that I’ve been really ambivalent about my feelings with regards to ToC. I’ve never been to an American rock show before, and they are rumored to be much rougher than J-rock shows, though I think being squeezed to where I could barely breath in general admission for Jrock Rev on day 2 during D’espairsRay was pretty bad already lol. It’s all in good fun and good energy though. Better rowdy, than dead. So, needless to say, as a small, Asian girl, I was feeling really apprehensive. I’d been dreaming about D’espairsRay for months before thanks to Voni’s influence and Chantrea’s Sexual Beasts Saga lol. I’ve never been to a Rock show of this enormity before. So I felt the way I always feel when experiencing new things; fearful but excited.

I guess this blog will be short since many of you will have seen/are going to see D’espairsRay, MUCC, and THE UNDERNEATH yourselves so there’s really no point in reading my account right?

***
Just got back from ToC in fairfax today and I haven’t eaten sinze 11am so I’ve been running on one slice of pizza and sips of mana’s ROCKSTAR fruit punch :). I’ll try to keep it short since mana, amber, saku, and ryo were there, and pretty much every American Jrock fan i know is going to their own show or even more than one show. sooo yea, you can read if you want, but you don’t have to :X.

I’m wearing my D’espa hoodie right now in size XS cuz they ran out of small, but these seem to run big soo it’s very comfy! Family was still up soo i had to cover up my outfit X"D.

I guess I should go chronologically..?

ToC experience )

i had a really really good time, and i was really pleasantly surprised by that! i was expecting to have an alright day, but a lonely one. i guess the jrock fandom on the east coast is very close-knit cuz i ended up running into everyone who was there without even having to call anyone :P.

got lost for a couple of minutes going home, so i ended up getting home around 12:20a.m.

i’m in the middle of upping pix now, but if i upload all of my pix...no one will read my blog :(.

My most recent set of Jrock scans. I bought the issue of Arena37'c feat. alice nine. in their tsubasa princely outfits, but what with college, I never got around to scanning it :(. My best set of scans and the most of a magazine I've ever done.

~<3christine


-feel free to use however you like
-give credit to Saga-hime if you feel like it
-DO NOT REPOST ANYWHERE ELSE AS YOUR OWN SCANS
thank you :).

//alice nine., the gazette, kisaki, ayabie, vidoll, miyavi, sadie, lolita23q, sakito, Merry, An Cafe Next Generation, watashime, yuuya x aki (those scans are already floating around on LJ).

i get all of my jrock mags from VISUALSHOXX ;). this one, is by far my favorite ^-^! it has a lot of my top jrock bands in it<333.

no watermarks this time :[. cuz i hate how it makes the quality complete crap when i mess around with it. someone give me photoshop -_-".

***sorry some of the scans started getting crooked. some of them were done at 4:30 in the morning -_-". *cough*vidoll, sadie*cough* i also got a double-sided alice nine. poster with my mag, but it is too long to scan :(. sorry!

LABOR OF LOVE :P

alice nine. is for everyone because everyone on my friends list loves them...if not, pretend like you do :X (Saga keeps growing more and more lovely. he is simply stunning with dark eye make-up and longish hair<3. & sorry for the blurred shou, hiropon, & saga. they were in the crease -_-"):

30th-May-2007 03:37 am - JROCK REVOLUTION in Los Angeles, CA
Jrock Revolution is still the happiest weekend of my life. I really miss this time, and it is full of memories that I pull out during my darkest hours to help me cope.

It was the first time that I got to meet Voni in person. Meeting her in real-life is an occasion that I value greatly. Her friendship is soo important to me.

Many things that could have been life-changing almost but didn't quite happen. However, the majority of the time, I feel that everything happens for a reason. So if we didn't get to party with D'espairsRay or Miyavi like our friends did, it just wasn't meant to be. Seeing Saga live and in front of me and the focus of my world was more than I could ever hope for.

~<3christine


feel free to SKIM! i'm too lazy to cut it down XD!!

the longest blog entry you'll ever see me write ;)!going to definitely update this when i'm home in maryland again. but seriously, for awesome, in-depth, and insightful accounts please go to Livejournal or something.

this blog will just be the ravings of a fangirl :).
 

JRR & LA blog ^-^ )
Going to upload the few good pictures that I got and set that photo album to friends only. Please don't steal my pix and say they're yours. It was extremely difficult to take good pix since they said no flash-photography. Plus I was in the pit day 1 and in General Admission Day 2 and it was really crazy. My hand kept wobbling and I couldn't take good pics over people's flailing arms and such. I'm sad cuz I didn't get a single nice picture of girugamesh but I'm happy that I was there and got to hear satoshi's mind-blowing voice live. Umm my ears rang for a while after both shows.

*~*~*~*~*~*

All in all, it was the best time of my short life soo far. The shows were amazing and a good time was had by all<3. Many of the bands said that they were coming back to perform. Hopefully they meant the U.S. and not just LA.

oh! i also managed to get several seconds on alice nine's perfs cuz that's when my camera started to die. i don't think they're worth uploading though cuz i was uhhh, sorta excited while filming soo it's all crazy angled and such XD.

~<3christine

P.S.: I uploaded all of my best pictures from JRR on my Myspace, and I left them up for quite a long time...but then I got selfish and took them down. Flash was not allowed so many of the pictures came out blurry or had crap lighting. Here are a few of my favorites from all the pictures I took ^_^! Stealing them and claiming them as your own is a BIG no-no.

</small>Jrockers Here! )

 

Sorry the red saga scan is a bit smaller than all the others. The image died, and I didn't save my big scan.

My second set of Jrock Scans. They were slightly better, but still need improvement. I really love Shoxx Bis and Neo Genesis though I haven't been able to purchase any in a very long while. I also like Arena37'c because they seem to really adore alice nine. :).

~<3christine


SHOXX BIS Vol. 14 feat. the Gazette

i finished scanning lm.c (for ty) & D (for caiko), and right now i'm almost done with alice nine. the gazette is going to have to wait until after church and shopping.

you guys don't have to keep checking. i'll post a bulletin when they're all done :).

& yes, they'll be watermarked. but i'll make it small enough soo that if it's a life or death situation and you really need to crop it out you can. but plz credit me okay?? & feel special cuz i'm posting them here first and i've been scanning for about two hours now. and m blogs are set to friends only soo all my profile lurkers can go friend request me now muahahaha :P.

& my binding is all abused now. the things you will do for fellow fangirls :/.

the scans are going to be very large but not as large as last time. cuz i think 1700 x 2333 is a bit ridiculous and not very useful unless you're planning to print these out of your lappy and staple em together and try to sell them to idiots on ebay XD (are u?? O_O)!!! & maybe maybe maybe, if you like the scans enough you'll be motivated to start buying jrock mags?? & don't say u don't know where to get them. i get all of mine here. my state doesn't sell jrock merch just as much as your state! cuz i'm really weird; i buy more mags than i do music; it's cheaper :X.

p.s.: i've decided that it would be soo much easier and cooler if we all jus lived near each other and could drool over these together in real time XD. & also those stairs from the gaze photoshoot have got to be the luckiest stairs ever XD!
Looking back, even though it was a horrible first time at a J-rock show with a pit, it really wasn't soo bad thanks to the gestures of good friends. Amber giving me the Dir En Grey tag that she found, and Caiko buying an extra "The Marrow of a Bone" CD just to mail it to me were both very sweet and touching actions that I am still thankful for.

February 5th of 2007 will be memorable for me for other reasons aside from Dir En Grey. It was also the first day that I ever spoke to Caiko on the phone. I was soo nervous that we wouldn't click because she is soo much older than I am. It seems our friendship is still going strong, more than a year since the day we first spoke :).

~<3christine


rant copied from bulletin: )

P.S.: Sorry there aren't any photos from this live either. I had a really crappy old cell camera at the time that I borrowed from my cousin, and they are still sitting on her phone memory since she does not have a USB cord for it. Plus, the pictures were awful blurry ghost-shapes anyway x_X. They have no meaning to anyone aside from me who can actually tell what blur was Die, what blue was Shinya, and what blue was Kyo. I think this show was no cameras also..?
