Obey the Butt

Long time no see babydolls. I have been quite busy, finishing up with my animal studies course, being social and job hunting. Not to worry, my shopping didn't stop during my absence so I have a few reviews to give you. 
Odd tidbit: Its also been super cold lately, I bought these towards the end of winter for the warmer weather in spring. Even now in October (middle of spring) that weather hasn't really come except for the odd day. It was snowing just yesterday. Our house doesn't have heating so it has been really hard to get a chance to wear these and take photos without freezing my bum off. So thats another reason there was a big delay in this review. 
Hehe.

Let's start with stay-cute.com
Stay Cute, also known as Tokyo Hardcore, is a young, girl power, street brand. Selling cute tops, pants and accessories with sassy graphic prints. I've been hanging out for a pair of their shorts ever since I laid eyes on them and I splurged a little to buy myself something extra.


My order:
I was also sent a bunch of stickers for free~


Shipping: $12
The order took about 5 days to be processed and shipped, a little longer than what I am used to but that's ok. The price of the shipping is pretty reasonable for Australia/America. (It often can cost an arm and a leg over here). It arrived to me in just under a fortnight. Wrapped up in a black envelope and the clothes were also protected in plastic. It came to me undamaged by transit. Over all I am pleased with the shipping service that was provided.


Item Quality:
The shorts - They are simple, black, high waisted, hot shorts. Made from a blend of cotton and spandex. There is the brands logo printed high across the bum. They are super comfortable, the small a perfect fit for me. I love the way they look on me and I can't wait for warmer weather to wear them more. Getting them for $10 was such a steal! Even at full price ($15) they are definitely worth it if you are looking.


The Hoodie - A lovely mint coloured crop hoodie. It sits above my belly button. The hood sits comfortably on my head (so long as I am not wearing my hair up). The material is a mix of cotton fleece and polyester. The zip is sturdy and seems like good quality. There us a logo printed on the right side at the front. The hood had a drawstring but it fell out after the first wash and I have not put it back in. I wouldn't have used the string much anyway. I love this hoodie, I wear it to the gym often, despite being half polyester I don't get sweaty when wearing it. At $48 its quality seems worth it. My only gripe is I wish the hood was bigger, I get annoyed with hoods that are small and always fall down. Love big hoods. This one isn't too bad though.


Over All:
I love my order. Stay-Cute came through with the goods, great quality, good shipping, reliable, adorable but badass style. I highly recommend taking a look at this store. There is a great range to choose from and they are often coming up with new designs.

That's all for now and remember to stay cute~

Quoth the Raven

Recently I received a wonderful package from my new sponsor Jane Nevermore.
Jane Nevermore is an alternative label based in the UK. With original prints and bright colours their products are versatile and eye catching!



Shipping:
Jane was pretty quick to ship my order out. It arrived to me in about 12 days from the UK to Australia. It arrived in the pink package above, sealed and safe. With no transit damage to the envelope or what was inside I'd say her shipping service was fantastic!


Items:
In my pack age there were three little treats just for me!
† Cone Studded Black Bracelet
† White Everyday Demons Crop
† Feelin' Blue Tie Dye Tee


First of all the black cone studded leather wrist band. The band is fastened by a notched buckle and its size is adjustable. The cone studs are black and screwed in to the leather. The leather is clean, thick and has neat edges. The buckle and studs are well fastened, every now and then though I check the screws just to be safe, I'd hate to lose a stud. That is just me being cautious though, this little baby is really well made. At first the band is stiff, but never fear, being leather with wear it will soften. I have worn mine almost non stop since I got it and it has already adjusted and sits comfortably on me.


I wish I could take full body shots because this everyday demon crop looks stellar with high waisted skirts and leggings. I love this print design so much, it was so hard to choose between the black and the white. Made from soft lycra, my only worry was that because it was white you might be able to see my bra through it. In this picture I was wearing a black bra and you can hardly see it, if at all! It sits comfortably under my bust, when I lift my arms it doesn't rise too high so I'm not flashing the world. Its fit is great, I went for a small size but Jane Nevermore offers to make custom fits as well as their standard sizing options. This one even has a little extra to fit for more boob :D


The feelin' blue tie dye tee is a super comfy, 100% cotton shirt. The explosion of purples and blues make you feel anything but down. It is a unisex tee and each design is hand dyed so no design is the same. A really great, versatile shirt, tie dye is never going to go out of fashion!


Overall:
I love each of these pieces and there are so many more unique designs from Jane Nevermore I would love to get my hands on! Everything is well priced for original designs and quality products. Jane is easy to talk to, very understanding and friendly. Her store is an amazing service and I would recommend it again and again!

Thanks so much to Jane Nevermore for the chance to write this review!

☽ KILLSTAR Crop Top Review ☾

 KillStar




Shipping: Free, special promo.
My order was posted 2 days after I paid for it. It arrived in 6 days which is super fast. I have bought from KillStar in the past and paid for shipping so I know it is pretty reasonable for a fast reliable service.



Item/Quality/Price:
I got a small in both and they fit me great. I paid £24.99 each, a little over $40 AUD each. I think that's great for designer shirts, the fabric is also great quality. It's pure cotton, it breathes so it's great for hot weather and is cut as a crop to expose your tummy. The designs are awesome, I can't pick which is my favourite which is why I decided to get both. The print stretches, so it shouldn't crack. I can't wait to wear these more.


Extras:
This time it came with what I think are stickers for the tag. The KillStar logo, the inverted cross, looks to be a sticker. If not I'm a label hoarder, I love using them for scrap booking. The detail of the designs is great once again, right down to the labels.



Overall:
Love these crops to death. Super excited to have them. Once again, KillStar has provided a great service. Really pleased with everything. I recommend them and hope you check them out.
