11.11 Taobao Shopping

My final exam is finally in sight: 9am tomorrow.

Since I foresee a long night of cramming ahead, I may as well get some blogging done before I crack down on the work hehe


Many of you probably know about Taobao, and its infamous 11.11 sale.

TBH, I didn't think it was a big deal, until one of my friends WeChat me crying about how he couldn't participate because he had exams, and then I came home to a fellow gaijin gyaru being sad over how she wasn't prepared for it.

So then I thought, well, why not check it out?


I usually am really picky about what I buy - always cheap, and rarely anything thats quality > quantity/price.

That's how I can buy more on a student budget right? haha

Anyway, since 11.11 is rumored to be huge sales and stuff, I thought it would be a good chance to shop for more 'quality' than 'quantity'.

I ended up buying two dresses for my mom and I. The print was irresistible.

For mom

For myself

Office-lady dresses k. A necessity.
(Can you see me in all that korean style face and hair though? looooooool)

And for the non 11.11 stuff... well I wanted to buy them anyway, so I might as well get them in the same batch since I don't think they'll ever go on sale.

THE CASE IS SO CUTE RIGHT!?

Cannot resist the fact that it has a cute design on the back AND the front.
The power button looks difficult to reach and that mouse is gonna snap off any moment but hey who cares; it's only about the price of a coffee! (YASSSSSSS)

Daisy necklace~

Accent necklace~

Buying lots of necklace accessories because I quite prefer my work wardrobe to be simple.

I used to wonder what the 'Chinese' style was, since Korean and Japanese styles were so very different. I think the Chinese style is just (badly put) 'rich'. Everything on taobao that is '时尚' (stylish) is advertised with some kind of international-brand logo, and the clothes for people about my age are always very chic and business-woman or bordering on sexy, but still with that kinda feel.

It's kinda hard to describe. But i like the style for workwear.


Anyway, if anyone else did some quality shopping on 11.11, please direct me to your post! I am starting a bookmark folder in preparation for next year huehuehue~

IPhone accessories wishlist

This month I will be making another taobao order, including some other hair accessories (i need extension pigtails for my black hair!) and new phone accessories I found last night :3

Taobao is so awesome <3

So here's the list of stuff I would like. Chances are, I won't be ordering all of them. Especially the pink cute stuff, I think I picked too many. But anyway, if anyone wants anything from here feel free to ask me for link :)

Let's begin!

The front and back stickers would be really nice with the bumper case, and they're so pastel and cute! Some of the stickers had words that were cut off or too much going on so it took ages to find the ones I liked QAQ

Also these are a few other kawaii things I saw in the same shops ^^

There are actually a lot more sets for the stickers above (they're nail stickers) but the images were so huge so here's just an example ^^ isn't it super kawaii and pastel!? I love Little Twin Stars so much <333

edit: I have now gone and ordered all the products (wtf am I crazy!?) and that includes 2 of the earplug danglies (different designs) and about 11 sheets of stickers (each with different design). Since there is so much I will definitely be writing a haul post when I get everything >< [21/04/2014]
