Lucky Pack: BTSSB Schoolgirl JSK LP 2012

Okay! Finally got around to typing out this post, albeit on my phone haha.

I've actually been wanting to buy something from Baby the Stars Shine Bright (BTSSB) for a long time. One of my good Loli friends has shown me alot of her pieces, and they're really nice!

Of course, there's also the fact that Btssb has a (really really small) special sort of place in my heart because it was the first brand store I'd ever been into! I visited the one in Paris :) I've also been to the one in San Francisco, and am aiming to visit one in Japan within the next 2 years! Cost isn't so much the issue, more finding time that fits my schedule :/ I'll probably book a weekend trip for myself and take a Friday off sometime this October XD (Then again my 2H2012 work schedule was just out today, and it looks like it may pretty much be impossible to book a holiday for the rest of the year *sigh*)

Anyway! This Lucky Pack came at exactly the right time as I was looking to expand my plaids wardrobe. When looking at the possible colour ways for this set (which, by the way, is the Schoolgirl JSK set), I was immediately drawn to the blue colour way, and just had to place an order!

When it finally arrived, I opened the parcel and saw....



Baby the Stars Shine Bright 2012 Winter Lucky Pack


YES! Blue colourway, exactly what I wanted! Sooooo happy!!! I found it a little odd that there's no zipper on this dress, but the back is fully shirred, so it's very stretchy and does fit :)

The blouse that came with the JSK, which I sometimes hate, sometimes like:

The socks and bag that came with the set:

The bag is really cute! Absolutely tiny, and not very practical, but still cute. The set also came with an usakumya phone charm, which I've kept in my jewellery corner for good luck with my wardrobe XD;

I haven't worn this at all yet... I'd like to wear it soon - that might actually be a really good idea, given that weather's been pretty rainy and cold recently ^_^

The next LP post will be the Innocent World Oddments LP, because I've already taken pics of the LP's contents (and have been procrastinating on the IW New Year Set ahahaha XD;;;

Mannequin Snap: Green x Black

I'm still trying to find an outfit for this blouse that doesn't look too sweet, and this is my most recent idea. I also really like the idea of wearing less common colour combinations together hahaha.

Still not liking it as much - I think my issue is the shoes. I'll probably wear them with black shoes! And most likely lacy tights as well. I have absolutely no idea if the headdress actually works well, but it looked better than the other headbands that I threw on!
