Bodyline Review

My order arrived and I am so happy! I recently had the chance to buy some things my wardrobe desperately needed, and now I have the feeling I will be able to wear Lolita far more often! The only problem I have, besides the heat, is the fact that...well...I don't know how to iron my clothes. Nor do I really want to. To make things easier, I'm considering purchasing a steamer to steam out the wrinkles in my clothes, if I do I will be sure to blog about it and let ya'll know how well it works! :)

So, onto the review! First, the things I disliked. I'm pretty much satisfied with everything ( except for the AIR shipping, but you all know how much I hate it. ^_^" ) but there were just a couple of things I didn't like so much.

I got two cutsews, one I was thrilled with, but the other I was a bit disappointed in. It was cheaper and I didn't expect it to be as good quality, but it did surprise me in a couple things.

The color in this cutsew was different than what I expected. Though, I've learned that when it comes to Bodyline's pink colored things, some of them aren't always as they appear in the photos, so it wasn't too surprising. It will still go with the things I have so I'm not all too disappointed though, but another thing that bothered me was the lace around the armholes is very scratchy and irritating. One of the reasons I wanted cutsews was because my blouses have the same problem and I thought it would be more comfortable, but this one isn't more comfortable by much.
But other than that, it is pretty cute, especially the ruffles at the bottom.


Overall, I love these bloomers! They're adorable and the polka dots are just too cute! I did think they'd be a bit longer though, but that's not too much of a problem. The lace isn't that great, but it doesn't bother me when I wear them.

Now onto the things I loved!

I am in love with this cutsew!! Sorry that my pics aren't that great, btw... anyway, this cutsew is so soft and has no itchy lace around the armholes! The armholes don't have elastic though, so if you have big arms it might be tight or hard to get on, but thankfully it's not really a problem for me. It's extremely comfortable and beautiful, definitely my best Lolita top! I want another one in white and one in pink, perhaps even one in blue! It's probably Bodyline's most expensive cutsew, but DEFINITELY worth the money. :)




I got this bag even though I don't have the skirt or dress in this print because it's just plain adorable and it will go with pretty much all of my Lolita clothes. I was in desperate need of a good Lolita bag, and this one seems tough enough to handle my abuse! XD Oh, and about the Bunny Bear, I tied it onto my bag and was too lazy to take it off for the photo, ha ha.



These shoes are a bit plain, but still very beautiful. The main reason I got them is because they are white and I really needed some white shoes with little heels that would go with all of my outfits. I read some reviews of these before I purchased them and some Lolitas have said that the strap was too tight on them and that they should have gotten a bigger size, I got them in my size as it was the biggest size available anyway and they seem to fit perfectly, except that the left shoe has a little part that rubs up against my feet badly. I think it's as easily solved as putting something over the little part that sticks out ( where the seam is ) like a little piece of duct tape or something though, hopefully anyway.

And last but not least, my new skirt!



This skirt is perfect for OTT and non-OTT Sweet Lolita, which is one reason I got it! It's got an adorable carousel print that I just love, it's definitely one of my favorite pieces. The lace at the bottom is the same as my Soft Cream Skirt, but it's a bit more stiff, I'm hoping it will soften up once I wash it.

And there's my review, I hope it helped! If you have a question about anything I purchased, leave a comment and I will answer it. ( I'm FINALLY able to comment again! )
