First Snow OOTD ✩

Monday yet again ٩(ツ)۶ I got kinda busy the last couple of days but I feel strangely calm? Haha.

It had snowed when I woke up today so the ground was covered in a thin layer of fluffy, white snow. I'm kinda excited!

I decided on layers today (since I hate being cold) and it ended up looking a little 'Dark Mori'! :0

~Outfit Rundown~

Shirt: H&M

Pants: Dressman 

Vest: Borrowed

Scarf: ASOS 

Necklace: Handmade 

I really liked this outfit, it was super cozy, warm and I felt stylish ☆ I can't wait to show off more outfits, cold times are the best times to dress in the Mori style, after all~

The scarf I bought very recently from ASOS, I'll show the other things in another post ;) 

Have a nice evening now, lovelies~✩

Museum OOTD ✩

Heyoo - how are you doing?
It’s been a busy day. I’ve been to a museum, visited a florist school, been to a thriftstore etc...
I went for something a bit different today, something kinda classy considering we were visiting a museum.

~Outfit rundown~

Pants and shirt: H&M

Blazer: Secondhand 

This was a very basic outfit and I didn’t use any accessories (gasp) but I’m kinda sad I didn’t fix my hair, it would’ve looked nice with a backsweep ;c 

I’m sorry for the very short post, it’s a bit overdue as well, I was supposed to publish it on Friday but I got super busy, hahah. 

November Angel OOTD ✩

I finally put up my mirror on the wall meaning I can take outfit pictures if the weather allows. 

Here's one from today:

I'm sorry for the terrible quality. Mobile camera + overcast day is not ideal for taking pictures ;c

~Outfit rundown~

Shirt: Borrowed

Cardigan: Secondhand

Scarf: Secondhand

Pants: H&M

Necklace: Handmade

I love making my own accessories. This crown pendant is made from crafting foam, lace tape, chain, a pair of old earrings and a pearl. The crown is made out of crafting foam I spraypainted gold, the wings come from a pair of earrings I found in a secondhand shop.

Hope you have a great week now, lovelies~

i.Fairy Nobluk Aqua & Grey Lens Review ✩

Hello there, lovelies ~
How’s your day going? I’m just lazing around _(:3 」∠)_

Today I’m gonna show of two pair of lenses from the brand i.Fairy from the Nobluk collection, which I got from Lensvillage. As per usual, no problems with the delivery, I received them around 3-4 weeks after placing my order.

Nobluk Aqua Blue

Comfort: ✩✩✩✩✩

These were super soft and comfortable, I couldn’t feel them at all!
Color: ✩✩✩
These are two toned lenses, the rim is lightblue and gradually changes to yellow towards the middle. Also note that these lenses aren’t super vibrant and colorful, so they might not show up on everyone’s eyes. The blue doesn’t show up on my eyes very well, but they blend really well with my natural eyecolor.
Enlargement: ✩✩✩✩
These are 16 mm in diameter, so they’re quite large. The outer rim is subtle and not solid, giving the lenses a softer look.

Nobluk Grey 

Comfort: ✩✩✩✩✩

These felt exactly like the blue pair, so there's not much to add. I did wear them to school one day and noticed they did make my eyes a little dry after a couple of hours, so I'd recommend bringing eye drops
Color: ✩✩✩✩
These are two toned lenses, the rim is light grey and gradually changes to yellow towards the middle. Also note that these lenses aren’t super vibrant and colorful, so they might not show up on everyone’s eyes. These lenses mixes extremely well with my eyes, making them look a bit sharper with a grey hue. I love these for everyday lenses!
Enlargement: ✩✩✩
The outer rim is subtle and not solid, giving the lenses a softer look. These are 16 mm in diameter, like the other pair - but since it mixes with my own eyecolor so well they don´t make my eyes look oversized unlike the blue ones did.

I'm very pleased with these lenses - especially the grey ones! They're probably the most natural looking lenses I've owned, despite their size ( ´･o･)

Have a nice, calm evening, lovelies ✩

Review

Overall I'm very happy with my purchase! The shipping was extremely fast, I got the package 1 day after I got the "your order is shipped"-mail and the items are all as described. The only negative thing is the cost it amounted to. The entire purchase went for about $57 + the shipping cost of $28, so it amounted to $85. There was also some import costs, so the final cost was around $90. 

Still, it's a bit cheaper than most lolita brands, as they tend to go over $130, if you're lucky. 

If you're into the classic or sweet lolita style you should definitely check out this shop! It's relatively cheap and you get good quality articles for the money you pay. The service is good and I had no problems with the whole purchase, so I'll definitely buy from them again sometime ^^ 

Have a nice day now, lovelies ✩

Geo 'Berry Holic' Violet Lens review ✩

Hello there! (´・ω・)

I've recently bought a bundle from Lensvillage.com that includes 2 pairs of Geo lenses for $37!
(you can see the bundle offers here.)

These are from the brand Geo Medical and are part of the 'Berry Holic" series.


Comfort: ★★★☆☆
They didn't dry out my eyes, which is great. But they felt a little thick, which bothered me. They also only come in -0.00 prescription (plano), so I can't use these daily due to my poor eyesight.
Color: ★★☆☆☆
Sadly the purple color doesn't show up that well in my eyes, which is a bummer since I chose them because of the color. The search for violet lenses that fit me continues...

Design: ★★★★☆
The design is very pretty, yet simple. It has a dark rim, and an inner yellow circle. The inner rim does go a bit over the pupil, so it might obscure your vision a bit.

Enlargement: ★★★★☆
They don't look that big at first, but they do appear bigger when you wear them! Surprisingly, they're only 14.2 mm though?

These are totally fine, but I'm a little disappointed since I needed them for cosplay and they didn't give the effect I wanted...

Anyways, like I said earlier, this pair was part of a bundle, so there'll be another review soon!
Take care ♪

I.Fairy Super Crystal Review ✩

Hello there, here comes the second review of the week! I.Fairy Super Crystal ☆

These lenses are of the same brand as I stated in my last review, even though I was planning on getting purple ones I ended up with blue ones because I'm a sucker for blue lenses _:(´ཀ`」 ∠):

 

 

Comfort: ★★★★★

These lenses are very comfortable to wear despite them being so large. My eyes tend to get dry while wearing larger lenses, but there were no problems with these. 

Color: ★★★★☆

The color of these lenses are so cool. I love blue lenses and sadly they don't blend well with my eyes ;; I think these would look amazing on someone with light eyes.

Enlargement: ★★★★★

These lenses are 16 mm in diameter, so they are definitely large. Due to how comfy they are I recommend these if you're going to wear lenses for a long time for a convention or the like. 

These lenses surprised me due to the enlargement and bold color, but I'm very happy with them! For more photos of these, go to my Instagram c: 

I.Fairy Kitty Tears Lens Review ✩

Hello~ I recently ordered two pair of lenses from Lensvillage.com, so this is the first review out of two! (´・ω・)

This pair is of the brand I.Fairy and is called Kitty Tears. They come in blue, violet and brown. I picked the brown pair since I needed new brown lenses.

Comfort: ★★★★★
These lenses are extremely comfy and I felt no irritation in my eyes while wearing them.
Color: ★★★☆☆
Despite the fact that these are brown, the color is very subtle and the lenses are mostly black. I think they would suit someone with dark eyes better.
Enlargement: ★★★★★
The Kitty Tears series is supposed to enlarge the eyes quite a bit, and they indeed do. These are very cute lolita-type lenses, making your eyes look big and doll-like.

Over all these are very nice, but perhaps not the most subtle lenses there is. I would recommend these to people who want doll-like eyes, for example lolitas. For more pictures, check out my Instagram or my "Romantique" post! c: 

My bad experience with PinkyParadise

I bet a lot of people who buy lenses know about PinkyParadise, I mean it's one of the biggest companies in the market. They supply a large number of different colored lenses and cosmetics as well as posting instruction videos about lenscare.

I have ordered lenses from them before, the first lenses I used for Ciel was from there if I can recall right. However, I'd say out of all the times I've ordered from there, there've been a problem about half of the time. Really uncomfortable lenses, damaged lenses on arrival, orders not getting confirmed, loss of package and so on... 

And yes, this might have to do with me just being unlucky, but if my experienceses with them haven't been majorly positive I'd say that's not very good. So, now on with the story; 

Last November I ordered two pair of lenses, and I expected them to show up around 3-4 weeks after placing the order, like usual, but after 6 weeks I still had gotten no indication the package was on its way. So I contacted them, and the package was apparently in Germany, not on its way to my address, but back to the PP HQ. They said that this was cause nobody had been at home when the package was delivered, so it was sent back. The strange thing is; we had gotten no mail or information at all saying the package had arrived. Usually they send the package to a local post office but apparently not this time?

So we ask them about this and they say that once the package arrives at their HQ they'll send it back once again, and this might take up to two weeks. So we wait.

It has been about three weeks by now, yet nothing, so we contact them, only for them to say that the package is lost! MHM.
But, they agree on sending a new package, which is expected to show up around 10th of January. And we wait again.

Later into January, nothing. We start to wonder if this package is also lost.

So we contacted them and, once again, the package is lost!
They offer to send a new package with express shipping, and we tell them that we better not be the ones paying for it ($15!!!)
When they replied, they were sorry to inform us that the items I had ordered were out of stock. . . yeah. 

Still waiting on a refund, but I'm NEVER gonna buy from them again. This is actually one of the reasons I haven't done a new costest in a while, the lenses I was waiting on was supposed to arrive in November/Early December of last year. 

Again, this might just be my bad luck, but I do feel like this could've been avoided if PP hade better service, and I do want my money back. Anyways, this was all I had to say for now, bye ☆

Note; I've given them until Sunday (19/02) to give me my money back. If they do not I will contact my friends who work with them and ask if they can help me out.
