As you can see, ordering from Clobbaonline tends to take a lot of time, not due to any issues on their part but because they're ordering from Taobao shops who don't always have things premade, nor as as quick to ship things out. Martin, the man who does all the communicating for Clobba, is very kind and fluent in English and very quick to respond to any questions. I must have asked them four different questions between January and February regarding completely irrelevant things.

Unfortunately, Problem #1 came up after I asked for an update on my order: Dream of Lolita had failed to ship out one of the two purses I ordered. I was upset about this as it takes DoL so long to ship things but understanding as it wasn't Clobba's fault and Martin said that they'd send out everything else as it had all come in and would send out the purse seperately as not to hold up the order, and would also pay for the shipping of the second item.

This was very kind and I agreed, as I wasn't in a rush to get my purse [since I placed the order I'd bought about two others and really didn't need it at this point]. However the second issue came up about a week later, DoL was sold out of the purse I wanted and they wouldn't be available within a decent time-frame.

Martin was again apologetic and offered to refund me the amount for the purse, plus the shipping difference and they did very quickly, but I instead decided to purchase a Little Bear Cafe replica. I'd been eying the replica for a while and I was interested in the JSK however I didn't want to 200+ dollars for something I wasn't sure I liked. The difference was only about 30 dollars though, after he refunded me the purse!

A headbow and a jsk for 30 dollars? Absolutely!

Whenever my purchase was received, I was so excited! The shipping was honestly terrible [airmail is heinous, tracking is terrible and thus I didn't know when the order would show up because the tracking system didn't update once from when the item was posted to when it was delivered here in Walla Walla] but the package was beautiful.

Clobba is always terribly careful to make sure everything is very nicely wrapped. And it was, I had to saw through the wrapping with utility scissors just to get inside.

And inside that pretty, nearly air tight polkadotted plastic wrapping was another box that took another five minutes to saw into! Tada! Everything was padded in bubble wrap and wrapped separately with tissue paper.

Everything is gorgeous! I'm very happy with all our purchases. We got three pairs of socks, a Kodona jacket, and a lollipop bag! I haven't taken individual pictures of the items but I'm positive they'll pop up later ;D

All in all dealing with Clobba is always a treat, they're attentive and kind and I love purchasing from them! 

I've Been A Bad, Bad Girl.

Miracle Candy! This is the coordinate I have worked out for it thus far, I am hoping to balance out all the pink with a few more blue accessories and shoes because I just love the pink x blue coordinations!

AP wrist-cuffs would be a dream come true, however I'll probably just get a pair commissioned in blue.

Secret Shop candy socks in white, I thought about getting them in blue but in case I decide to do a pinkxwhite coordination, I'm trying to stick with white [unless I give in and just buy both!]

Secret Shop shoes. I absolutely love Secret Shop shoes, and I love ones with a wedge instead of a flat or a heel! These are available for pre-order, so I'm hoping I can get my hands on a pair.

And preferably more candy-themed sax jewelry, including smaller bows for my hair.

And this gorgeous, lovely wig! I'm not a fan of half-half wigs, but this wig has been my favorite ever since I spied it on CosplayWigsUSA, so I will not resist getting it for this coord!



I'm hoping all this extra blue will balance out the mass amount of pink that is the MC skirt! I'd prefer not to be a big ball of pink if I can help it.


I'm still keeping my eyes open for coordinations for my Milky Berry OP, but there's just so much more to get for it that I can't even begin to really focus! Plus, for some reason, I am desperately, truly in love with my Miracle Candy skirt. I love the way it fits and looks!



In other news: ClobbaOnline might not be this month's group order, as with the Chinese New Year coming up they might not be able to stock my entire order. I wish I would have released this sooner, I feel so silly! Granted I'm not sure how Bodyline and Fan+Friend treat the Chinese New Year so it'll just be a matter of seeing what order will be the easiest to fill at this time of the year.

Clobba's order is as follows thus far:
- Infanta's Rose Embroidery Brass Button Coat
- Dream of Lolita's Candy Pop and Candy Treat bags
- Two Classical Puppet's A-Line Pettis
- Secret Shop Candy socks [possibly two]
- Secret Shop Strawberry socks

Hopefully I'll be able to place this order by the end of this week if all goes well! Other than that, per my title, I've got to admit that I've been bad. I said I was done ordering things until I got paid again [Hooray for trying!] and I failed [Boooo!], so the newest addition to my wardrobe is an Angelic Pretty Boston Bag.

I'm sure I'll find use for it!

I can't help what I fall in love with. ;3;
