12/20 - The big holiday haul

 Happy Friday!!!!!!!!!! I hope you all are doing great! I am still sick, but today is a great day for me because I had a huuuge package come in! I think this has probably been my largest clothing haul this year, and will probably be one of the largest ones I'll do in awhile in terms of volume.

I was doing some searching for yumetenbo to dig for some cute items, and found something that started this haul. The theme for this haul was "it's missing in my closet/I wanted to not buy anything from MA*RS". My goal this January is to wear as much of the items I can to see if I want to get some similar items, or if this is just a one time piece (that I will continue to wear). Every piece in this haul was also under 30 dollars! I actually have two items coming next week that I originally ordered, but i'll post about those once later :)

So... let's start! I'll try to group these since there's some similarities

First! We have two Rady sets! I work from home, so a lot of the time I am just in my PJS or kigus, but I wanted to get some cute roomwear and Rady is a great place to get some. I really like the marbled design and love pink and purple. The more muted one is much for softer, while the vibrant one is more terrycloth, but you can't feel that on the inside. I definitely would consider getting some more of these, but for now I'm going to be wearing these a LOT!

Next, I picked up some cute pink sets! The jacket and shorts set are from Emiriawiz, and the jacket and skirt set are from Dazzy Store. I love pink, and sometimes I want to wear something a bit more business-like. I don't go into the office too much, but when I do I want to wear cute stuff! I also think both of these could work for just wearing something not super-duper agejo out when I am out with friends. 

Along the theme of business casual, and a color I love to wear but don't own a lot of: minty green/blueish clothes! I love pink, but I also love wearing these colors once in awhile. The minty set is from Delyle Noir, while the blue/white onepiece is from Sugar! I own a few pieces from Delyle Noir and I really like the quality of the clothing, so I was happy to add this to my cart. I can definitely see myself wearing this to like, a drag brunch. (I really want to go to another drag brunch lol). The Sugar onepiece was one that just kept showing up in my Mercari JP searches... haunting me... I finally gave in. There's supposed to be a matching belt but this listing didn't have it, but I have a few I could make it. I actually LOVE a peplum. I know, very 2010s of me... but something about it is just... so great.

Speaking of Peplums, I also got this SUUUUUUPER cute onepiece from the brand Selina. I was shocked at how white the skirt was as the listing photos made it look cream. I also have a very very... like almost very similar dress coming in next week but it's from an. I definitely will be working on coordinating this for karaoke, but also maybe if I go to any fancy schmancy places with my friends next year!!! My friend Sam were talking about Hibachi, which isn't the fanciest thing, but it's an excuse to wear this! I also noted this dress comes with padding, so no bra needed (always exciting!). Can you tell I really like some of the old school kyaba dresses? LOL. They're so cute...

And finally! The reason this haul started! SHOES! I think I finally wrapped up my shoe collection for now, and there's no more shoes I need. Let me show you the final two pairs!

The pink shoes are from Mon Lily! I have tried to find a nice pair of pink heels, but both attempts I have tried didn't work (didn't fit, open toe which I don't like). I was a little nervous these wouldn't fit, but a try on and I found out they did! These will be a bit difficult to coordinate with my pink outfits, so I may need to use these as a pop of color in the future. 

And probably my most favorite item of the shoes. These knee-high DearMyLove Boots! Deary? Dearly? DearMy? DearML? That old logo is so hard to read. I found these boots for 16.69!!!!!!!!!! and my god I was ready to gamble if these would disintegrate the moment I put them on. I was also nervous they wouldn't fit. Luckily the seller put the exact mesasurements for these (and the mon lily shoes! same seller!). The only downside is they are kind of stiff, so I need to work them in. My pal Elin told me they'd look really good with my MA*RS fur trim items and I was like :O you are soooo right!!! I am definitely going to be wearing these a lot. I have some basic black thigh-hights, but I think these will work super well with some winter code ideas I have.

And that's it!! I technically had one more big gift for myself coming, but with the US postal system, I actually don't think I'll ever get it. LOL. But I am excited to incorporate these into my wardrobe!!
