The piano has been shopping (not me)

Wow this last package was massive! I was thinking I might have to split it up but that's just too much of a hassle, I'll justthrow everything in at once.
Traded in my JSK of this series for the OP, I love the print but the shirring in the back of the JSK wasn't doing anything for me. I bought a set so I got the bow and the socks aswell.
Some extra socks, Angelic Pretty, Emily temple cute and Angelic Pretty again.
One of my last dream dresses to cross of the list! I originaly wanted the darker gray one, the one that's the same tartan as my trenchcoat, but you can't be too picky with colour if you want it in nice condition. It's quite old and the print is the kind of plastic print wich easily cracks (I don't think any lolita brand prints like that anymore). I have the same issue with my final dream dress, Puppet Circus.
Not a single crack! I was so relieved.
Wrapping ribbon, this print just screams MILK to me, not like that's a bad thing though. I got a tule MILK bow with little pink rhinestones on it to match, too cute!
Beige part of the package!
Big chunky wooden cross is by current crush EGOIST (note to self get more of this seasons crosses)
Brown higwaisted skirt from Innocent World
High heeled loafers in two colours from Esperanza
High heeled oxfords by Randa
Big floppy hat is an offbrand find
Anglomania!
Another JSG shirt, I love my blue one to death so I got the pink/black one aswell
LDS red bowler hat
Vivienne Westwood gingham ascott
Union jack skinny tie is an ebay find

Bisquit & Chocolate

Two of my favourite things in one dress! I love this print a lot although I prefer it in blue and creme, but it's a pretty rare print so I'm happy to have it at all!

The dress that almost wasn't

Part two of the latest haul, I've been in sort of a hailstorm of packages theese past few days, I guess I ordered alot when I got my last salary. Long term followers might remeber that I got this dress for myself as a christmas present last year, so why did I get it again this year? It's a pretty embarrassing story so I havn't posted it yet but the thruth is that I wore this dress while out partying in Tokyo one night. Since I have a habit of smoking when I drink I accidentally burned a hole in the chiffong ribbon with my cigarett!
I was so upset, I was lucky to get the dress in the first place, it turned out to be a very popular series and the only reason I was able to get it was because someone had ordered it through my shopping service and not payed up.
However I can't stand clothes with imperfections like holes or stains on them, it makes me feel guilty because I didn't take care of my pretty things.I let my old one go to Sara and started to search for a new one for me.
It took me so long to find another one that I even bought a substitute but that just wasn't enough so when I saw this one on auction I just had to have it even though it was super expensive!
I feel like it doesn't really matter, I'm at peace now that the search is over and I have it in my closet again so it was worth the money.

So there you have it, the story of Spoon & Fork and how I learned my leason never to party in popular prints again.

Belated shopping post, the lost package

It's home! This is a pretty smal package, the socks are a gift from my shopping service, they are cute but the dark pink colour on them is a little bit obnoxious. The main point is of course the chocolate ribbon JSK, it's hard to take a picture of the beauty of this dress it's the softest chiffon I've ever seen, the little sleeves flutter like butterfly wings in the wind!I ended up getting the black Egoist tail for my VM bag, I'm happy with my choice, I was worried the silver chain and charm would not go with the antique gold of the bag but I'm not really bothered by it.The Emily temple cute cutsew is super simple, it's basicly just a brown turtleneck but it has the style point of the button up back and the neck ribbon wich is so lovley, makes me want to wear my hair up!And last is Q-pot, my love! I wish I owned a lot more of this brand but it's often a little on the pricy side even if you do get it second hand, I managed to get this pretty cheap though. I got it new and unused in the bag and before I got it out of the plastic I was thinking how yummy it looked but once it got out it smelled really strong of plastic, maybe they have to make it smell artificial so no one accidentaly eats it.
I think maybe this will be the last of my cocoa fashion cravings, I have a pretty nice selection of it by now. I still don't have the melty chocolate OP I guess but since the new series have bleeding lace I'm not sure it's worth the money even if they're not that expensive in auctions anymore, is there anyway to tell if it's the new or the old one from just pictures?
Everything purchased on this recent obsession together in one cooridnate just for giggles.
Chocolate love, next halloween I can go as a milk dud!

The Cursed dress

I loved it from the start, I saw it and knew we where ment to bee! But it seems faith had other things in mind for us. The whole thing started when I, despite using two different shopping services, couldn't find it in stores. Then began the auction hunting, I got outbid, sniped, won only to find a week later that the seller vanished from the face of the eart. Untill I finaly won. The dress made it into the inovice of my shopping service, it got sent of and when it arrived in Stockholm Maria even saw the dress! It was real!
Then I made what seems to have been the fatal misstake, instead of waiting a week untill I was going to stockholm and pick it up for myself, I asked her to send it. I wanted it as soon as possible!
But the week went, and no package for me.
It's monday and no package for me.
If the postal service have lost this for me I might have to kill myself!

Job interview and more things

I went on my job interview today, it's a job at the callservice (why does that sound like a sex hotline to me?) for a big train company. I think I did okay but there was quite alot of people there so we'll see I guess, the whole looking for a job thing feels kinda stressful so I hope I get it.
I got some new things (again), this big ribbon bag from Emily temple cute. I thought this one was really large for some reason, I guess it just looked like it in the blogs but it's barley larger then a A4 paper. It's still okey, I like it anyway but I really want a much more spacious bag so I guess the search continues.
I also got these socks from Emily temple cute, I love the ribbon & chocolate series, I'm trying to get the dress from it aswell (although I probably won't wear them together, I think that would be a bit much). I'm happy theese are so long, now I can wear them in winter too.

Also, I made it to the top 5 in the giveaway I mentioned earlier, wah I'm so happy! Please vote for me! I'm coordinate C.

A shopping post

Emily temple cute: Wonderland JSK
Emily temple cute: Macaron print JSK
Emily temple cute: Alice flocky JSK
Angelic Pretty: Fantasic Dolly high waist JSK
Angelic Pretty: Sugar Carnival cardigan
Emily temple cute: Sparkeling ribbon cardigan
Emily temple cute: Cute cutlery cardigan
Angelic Pretty: Fantasic Dolly ribbon
I'm so happy with theese, such lovley colour and detail, just look at the polka dotted lavender lining on the blue cardigan, cute! The macaron print is just so adoreble, I really like the colours, especially the shoulderstraps and the little ribbon, such a beautiful shade of café au lait.So happy to finaly have this, I was looking for this during my stay in Japan but I only found it my last week there and then of course I had no money to get it, don't you just hate it when that happens?I admit I got this one sort of as a substitute for the spoon and fork dress I ended up selling and I will say it's not as cute but it's still a lovley piece, the chiffong and tule detail along the bustline is just gorgeous.Last but not least, this was the biggest supprise, the fabric is so nice and thick! It's like some kind of corduroy so this dress will be perfect for autumn and winter. I decided to get the high waist version in the cream colourway and the small clip-on ribbon instead of the big Alice bow, I'm really happy with my choice, I think it will be perfect for a cute and chic coordinations.

Sparkeling Blue

Necklace: Gift from Sara.

I got the catalogue for Emily Temple cute with my package in the mail today, it covers mostly the July collection so, although lovley, not alot of unseen things. I adore this coodrination though, I got the brown macaron JSK and I'm waiting for it to get home to me but now I want that blue cardigan aswell, they look so simple and cute together.

The cat's miaow

Det är tidig morgon, kallt och jag vill inte gå upp ur sängen så jag grubblar över sånadär viktiga saker som ifall jag borde köpa ETC's nya katt print. Jag älskar motivet och den lila färgen men vilken modell av klänningen ska köpa? Jag gillar babydoll men den är 2 cm kortare. Mitt liv är fullt av svåra och viktiga val.

Translation:
It's early morning, cold and I don't want to get out of bed so I'm thinking about getting the new ETC print, I like the motif and the colour of the lavender one, but wich style of dress? I like babydoll but it's about 2 cm shorter. My life is full of important and difficult choices.
