Shipping: Free!

It was sent 3 days after I paid for it. Once it was posted Thala, from Pastel Morgue, sent me a email with information about my order and with helpful tips of what to do if anything went wrong. It was polite, straightforward and I felt like if there was an issue she would have been easy to talk to. It arrived in a thick plastic envelope about 14 days after it was marked as posted. The garment was in it's own plastic and was undamaged in transit. That's a good shipping service in my opinion.

Item/Quality:

The garment can be worn as just a high waisted skirt or with the suspenders attached. They fasten on with buttons and have two button holes so the straps can be adjusted to two different lengths. There were a few extra threads on my item but they were clipped off easily. The material is a nice cotton blend, and not to heavy. On my shape the skirt is quite short. I have to wear shorts or a petticoat underneath it so you can't see my bum. I'm looking for a good petticoat and will recommend one when I buy it. I really love this skirt, its so cute and looks great with a printed tee and printed tights.

Overall:

This was a great bargain for this skirt, it looks adorable and I love it even if it is a little short on me. This was a really smooth easy process with the seller and I would not hesitate to buy from her again ^.^

Bought from Choies

Price: $39.00 $19.90 (New Member discount)

I think the original price is a bit much for the quality of the product but when you join up and make an account with Choies you earn points which can be spent to discount the price. The discounted price is much more reasonable.

This dress is no longer available from Choies, but I have seen it elsewhere.

Shipping: Free

It took about 2 weeks to get to me with a tracking number, so I was able to track my item. I think this was really reasonable. They offer express shipping too though if you are in a hurry.

Item/Quality:

This dress is super cute, I really do love it but I have to say I'm also a little disappointed. When it arrived it had a few loose/extra threads which were easily cut off. The biggest downfall with this dress is the fabric and design. I had to add a clasp over the top of the zip because otherwise the zip would just keep falling undone through out the day. The fabric, polyester I believe, after one wash started to ball up and become rough. I still wear it but the fabric is looking a lot shabbier so I can't pull it off for some occasions.

Overall:

A really cute dress, I got what I paid for but only because of a discount. This dress, in my opinion, is not quite worth $40. Choies seem to be a reliable company, their shipping service was excellent and they give a generous amount of points for your first purchase. This is the only thing I have bought from them so I can't comment on the quality/price of all of their products.

Buy it: HERE

Price: £29.99 (-£6 with 20% summer discount)

I think this is a pretty decent price for a designer dress. It is really good quality, the print is gorgeous.100% Viskon, it is really soft and breathes wonderfully. I've been meaning to get one of these for a while and I finally have one. Their recent Summer sale sold me so I saved a little. The shape of the dress is flattering and comfortable with a loose fit for me. I struggled choosing between a goat of mendes raceback and this one but decided I preferred the symbolism of hamsa.

Shipping: £3.99

Very good shipping, posted within 24 hours after I paid for it, it arrived within about 2 weeks after I paid for it.

Extras:

I seriously love all of Kill Star's designs. Their attention to detail is a delight! If you buy one check out their tags on the clothes and labels. They have sassy little sayings on them and they just generally look amazing.

Overall:

I have hardly stopped wearing this since I got it. I have been looking for a sleeveless dress just like this for ages to rock with my Black Milk leggings and this is perfect! Kill Star is a great company and I really recommend them, they take a lot of pride in their products and it really shows. I hope you guys check them out!

Sweet Deer Chiffon - Buychina Review

I’m sorry for the quality of the photos I only have my phone for a camera and so I use instagram as a shortcut to edit them. Also this was an order and review I did back in early May 2013 before I had this blog. This is not a sponsored review ♥

This was my first time using Buychina. I wanted to see how reliable it was so I’d have some knowledge if I ever wanted to buy something from there again. I restricted myself going for a simple (and cheap) dress, so if my order became a bust I was only losing a little bit of money.

Price/Payment: $7.23
My worry with Buychina is it does not yet accept paypal. I feel safe with paypal and I don’t like giving my card details over the internet. However despite the discomfort of having to do that nothing went wrong there.

Processing/Shipping: $5.23
Processing took a loooooong time. It took at least 2 weeks for them to actually mark my order as posted. However, in that time I did send them emails asking about my order and they were quick to respond.

It turned out, unfortunately for my dress, even though I had bought a pink version of the dress, in the processing time they had sold out of that color. They offered me a navy one instead, which I happily accepted (luckily navy probably suits me better), or a full refund.

The fact this happened worries me though. If I had not contacted them would they have told me they had sold out? Would they have refunded me? I would warn everyone to always contact the seller during the processing time if it exceeds a week. Once it had been shipped it took only maybe 2 weeks to get to me.

The Dress: 
It’s make and material is nothing special but I was not expecting it to be. I got exactly what I paid for and despite its simplicity I really like it. It fits just fine, accurate to its measurements, the style is sweet and it is a decent quality make. The print is vintage inspired and cute.

Overall: 
I really like the item, it was worth the price. Although I still find Buychina a little shifty, and my order took a bit long to ship, I probably wouldn’t hesitate buying from them again. Even with my concerns mentioned above about the reliability of that seller, it might have just been a one off hiccup and they might have contacted me eventually. Who knows?
