SHEIN: dress x skirt x jacket

Hi!! How are you all doing?? I'm currently in the middle of a huge snowstorm that hit the East Coast;; My dog is loving it but I am Crying inside thinking about shoveling my driveway...

9.5/10
I ordered this and then right after I saw a bad review on Shein ;____; But I was pleasantly surprised! I think that customer got a defective dress, because mine was great! Cute design overall, and the material was really comfortable. The back of the dress is slightly hard to zip up, and the buttons on the sleeves are also a Struggle. Still, I really, really like this dress and the lace is a great touch :)

rating: 8.5/10
I thought this skirt was pretty decent ^-^ Nothing really that I particularly disliked. It's a pretty decent staple. The smoothness of material kind of surprised me, and the waist is cinched by an interesting elastic band.

Pretty disappointed with this jacket, especially for it's price;;
Suede material was pretty smooth and silky. Color was nice and bright, and there weren't any loose threads. But the biggest problem I had was with how flimsy this jacket was. I wasn't actually expecting it to be very sturdy, but the entirety of it flops around: the arms, collar, and the quality of the zipper was... tragic.

I was excited when I saw these came with safety shorts! But then I realized how flimsy they were OTL. Still a nice thought, but I probably will have to cut them off and wear this skirt with spandex;; Again, VERY SHORT.... Since I'm only 5'7", all you taller gals better be wary... But I also have a booty so that cut into the back too;;

9/10
I'm always slightly wary about ordering one-size sweatshirts because even if it says "oversized" there's a chance it'll ... not... fit... me... But I measured for this one and it seemed alright. In fact, it was slightly oversized too ^ u ^ I'm usually not a huge fan of the side slit style, but it's growing on me hehe. The only part I wasn't too happy about was the design - it was slightly lopsided and the bubblegum bubble is deformed.

high neck striped shirt

- shoulder: 36 cm

10/10
A super nice and versatile shirt ^-^ I've been really really into mock necks recently, because I like the look but not the choking feeling that comes with turtlenecks. Good quality and smooth elastic feel on my skin. It's a pretty standard/basic shirt, so I can see myself wearing it a lot !

rambles;
i enjoy music in general, the smell of old books, the smell of new books, cracking the spine of a new book open, hilarious things, things that make me cry from sheer emotion, sad fics and dramas, cheesy dramas, baggy sweaters, pretty pictures, having that moment of inspiration before writing a story and being satisfied with the outcome, sleeping, running on no sleep, ice cream cake for birthdays, putting up my christmas tree by myself, cool lemonade, rainy cold days, drizzles on your face, action movies, unlimited amounts of piping! hot noodles and dumplings and wontons, minimalistic furniture, laughing at friends who are shorter than me, having deep conversations with strangers, muted colors, going through color pallets at diy stores, choosing yarn and looking through projects, drinking bubble tea, going to froyo stores, that moment when I finally draw something the way I imagined it, baking tasty sweets, cute stuffed plush toys, the smell of the ocean, fruit, good wuxia drams, some anime, the feeling of collapsing on the mattress after a long day, baggy sweaters, ice cream cake for birthdays, the tranquility of night, pretty pictures, cute cellphone charms, the tranquility of night, funny japanese emoticons, when everything is organized, when everything is disorganized, when my clothes match and don’t make me look like an overgrown middle schooler, when I actually don’t expect a plot twist, when I can’t predict what will happen next, overgrown kittens, energetic puppies, and being able to choose when to laugh.
