3 GOLEDN tips for checking the quality of clothes while shopping online

I suppose many people have got the experience of shopping online, and so have I. but I got worried when I encountered a good shopping site and decided to buy something. You know why？ I worry not about what to buy but should I buy. You know I doubt the quality.

I am a fashion clothes shopaholic; I love to compare the prices and quality of online shop. Now here I�d like to share some of my tips that you have to pay attention while shopping online, I am focusing on the quality and the prices.

Choose a reliable online shop site, there are many if you google fashion dress you will get a number of such site wholesale-dress.net, yesstyle.com, asia-fashion-wholesale.com. now here I will tell you how to see the quality through the photo.

1.Through the photo details. below a photo from yesstyle.com, no more words, you will know the quality, but if you didn�t see seriously, you will think this a good sweater and very fashionable, you neglect that this is for spring and autumn, will to thin be good for you?

2. Through the color of the clothes. Many online seller will make a colors different colors to attract and meet people. But the colors are not produced by the company but by software. Give you 2 photos you will know what I mean.

Here are two photos from asia-fashion-wholesale.com if you see one single of them, even I will think it is beautiful, and even buy it, but if you see both of them, what do you think?

3.Search information about the feedback if you are not sure you should buy or not, google this site, then you will get some treads or topics of the site.
For example, the first I encountered wholesale-dress.net, I decided to buy a , but I doubted the quality, I googled some feedback from other people who had ever bought from wholesale-dress.net. here we go: http://public.fotki.com/Shopomanija/bliuzels/ this link is a customer who once bought from wholesale-dress.net, and she took the photos from which I saw that, clothes at wholesale-dress.net are not bad.
And later I bought one dress.

The left is the model at wholesale-dress the middle is I received, the right one, of course, is on me.

All right, here we go, I gave 3 tips for choosing clothes at online shops, just my personal experience and opinions, actually there are many you can use as measurements to choose clothes. So check the photos clearly, especially the details.

OK wish you luck shopping.

Etude House make up reviews

KatieGoLucky — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 21:20:49 GMT

I'll post pictures soon, being that I just thought of this grand idea. O: Everyone seems to wonder about Etude House make up, and I've ordered quite a few things from 'em. At least this fantastic seller on ebay.

http://myworld.ebay.com/ohmyalice/
This seller has free shipping for most of their items and ships the items rather fast for coming from Korea. Or China? I forget, I think Korea. But the shipping is nice and the seller usually puts in tiny extra little surprises in the packages is awesome.

It seems that the best products that Etude House sells is skin products. Their other things were somewhat mediocre. Nothing that I'd go out of the way to order again, cause I could get things from the pharmacy for cheaper or whatever.

One of my favorite products are their facial masks.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

They are so dripping wet when I take them out of the package and the entire time I leave them on my face, they never go dry. When I take them off, my face is so shiny, refreshed and looks fantastic. I highly recommend them!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

This I got today so I'm not so sure what to think of it just yet. Just some lipstick... gloss... stuff. However when I tried it, I was sort of surprised. The after effects made my lips feel... wet. It was almost like water was on my lips. It was really refreshing, made them feel really soft. It was fantastic. Try it, maybe?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I would order this peach lavender stuff over and over again, it is amazing. It does an alright job covering blemishes, but you still see them which makes me sad. xD Especially since I want to cover them up. But man, it makes my skin pallid, makes such a lovely color, and gets rid of a lot of flaws. It smells great and has a really nice texture. It doesn't feel heavy at all. I would HIGHLY recommend this to try out. This is why I think Etude House's skin products are much more fantastic than their other things.

No link for the next item, but I also got an eye brightener. Its a small, cute little container. I think there's a decent amount inside. I would recommend it. I put a little bit over my eyes and they really did brighten up instantly. They really were... brought out more in a strange way. My eyes seemed to come out more and the cream gave a really nice effect.

I plan on buying more Etude House items so check up on the thread and feel free to start discussions Etude House related 8D

Girls, we are NOT fat!

electrolollepop — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 20:20:26 GMT

Having read the book �A Size 12 Is Not Fat� and �A Size 10 Is Not Fat�, I have to admit that compared to the obese; "I Live Off Of Empty Calories Everyday To The Point Of A Heart Attack" people on this planet, I am not fat... I can slide on a pair of my BFFs size 7/8 jeans and not have "love handles" or have to lay down to get them on. I admit, they are slightly tight around the ass area, but y�know what? My ass is slightly big, round, and sexy. And, I wouldn�t have it any other way.

My mother, a previous owner of SPANDEX skinny jeans, begs to differ. She always buys me pants that are too big and make me look bigger than I really am. I wear a size 9, but she likes to convince herself that I�m a size 10/11. She threw out my favorite pairs of pants recently, leaving me with three pairs of pants that she had bought me. All of which were sizes 10/11. (Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that if you wear a size 10/11 you're fat.)

Talk about a kick to the gut� I let it slide, though, telling myself that she just wants me to look modest and not have guys ogling my fine rear end at every second of the day. But, to be honest, it infuriated me after she found my BFFs cute, size 7/8, black skinny jeans with the studs on the ass in the washer and told me to stop borrowing people�s clothes. I reasoned with her that my BFF takes my clothes all the time, as well as my god-sister and my other friends. We all exchange clothing on a regular basis, to keep our wardrobe brimming to the top with hip clothes in all sorts of styles. That didn�t cut it.

So, today I am wearing the cute, size 7/8, black skinny jeans with the studs on the ass ice skating with my friends. And she�s driving me there, so I hope she gets a good look at how great my ass looks in these jeans. When I wore them to school on Friday, everyone complimented me. I received positive attention, instead of the typical put-downs some of my classmates like to give me about my weight. I don�t have a bad body, I just don�t exercise like a maniac, and my figure is curvilicious.

I know for a fact that my mother wants me to have a good body image and self-esteem, but her always insisting on buying me clothes that are too big on me just makes me want to cry. Society is hard enough on us girls with boobs and an ass, our parents don�t need to add on to it by trying to keep us �modest�. All I have left to say is� I�m tired of being told that my jeans are too tight and my shirt shows too much of my chest, and that my heels are too high. I�m a fourteen year old freshman, with great fashion sense. I keep up to date on what�s hip, and I like to show off my assets.

I do it in a tasteful way, too. I�m not trashy, at all. I�m just trying to keep my self-esteem on a good level, so that I don�t start calling myself �chubby� on a regular basis. There are enough girls in this world who considers themselves �fat�, and I most definitely don�t want to be one of them.

Thank you for wasting five minutes of your life to read this.(: I just needed to vent.

These shoes created by Le creative sweatshop, even though you probably can't wear them yourself they're just amazing to look at!

What do you think?
Plus could you imagine how long it must've taken to fold such intricate lines?!

Why do american clothes look so bland?

kawaii890 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:32:13 GMT

compared to the stuff sold on korea or japan?
Like im sure if you mix and match the stuff you buy
at typical american stores the right way
it will look adorable
but I noticed on sites that sell asian fashion
or when I see stores in asia
its more cute and child like
more lighter colors
and shearling fabric(which is something almost impossible to find here)
the stuff sold for teens/women in asia
is the stuff you would find here in the kids section!:eek:
like some of the shirts here
I have seen similar things like it at limited too
why dont we have more cute clothes?because im 5,6
so it might be too hard for me too buy stuff from asia:rain:
