Totoro inspired Outfit by Romwe

12. June 2016

Like many people in the AB community I cannot resist cutely designed products and it is the same for me with clothes. I love for example shoulder bags with fun and cute motifs and I do love T-shirts with anime or Disney prints for example. So I created this Totoro inspired Outfit by Romwe for you guys, hoping that the one or the another might enjoy this post:

Romwe is an online fashion retailer with the saying “from runway to realway”, selling fashionable clothes for affordable prices. They ship internationally, and you will find very unique fashion items there from time to time. You can check some of my previous reviews of their clothing, for example my review for the floral pleated skirt or the striped Mix & Match Dress.

For my Totoro inspired outfit by Romwe I simply spotted this T-shirt with the Totoro print and combined it with a classic blue denim shorts. The T-Shirt is a simple white shirt with a round color made from polyester with a very soft and nice touch. It is one-sized and therefore for small-sized people it will be a loose shirt. It is a thin material and perfect for summer. I’m absolutely in love with the motif. ♥

For summer a denim shorts is always a great combination for a simple shirt. The material has no stretch. It comes with pockets and a high waist fit. The shorts are available in 5 sizes (S,M,L, XL, XXL), but they are on the smaller side. I chose size L and it has a good fit for me.

In combination the two clothing items fit perfectly together. The shirt can be either tucked into the shorts or worn loose. A perfect outfit for everyday summer :D Both clothes have a nice material and are sewn properly.

My Totoro inspired outfit in this post was a total of 19.98 US$. There are also more printed shirts available like this one, or this one here.

fashion PR Sample Zugeschnürt

Corsage by Chilirose from Zugeschnürt

12. May 2016

// PR SAMPLE / FASHION //

I’m not a cosplayer, although I envy everyone who puts so much effort into their costumes and even makes them by their selves…but I do love Halloween! It is a bit early to think about Halloween, but I’m already planning my costume in my head. So I was really happy when the company Zugeschnürt asked me, whether I wanted to try and review any items from their shops. The corsages they offer were so pretty, I kept thinking about Halloween and my costume…Finally, I decided to try this Corsage by Chilirose.

Zugeschnürt means “corded up” in German and since this refers to the mechanism of corsets and corsages it is clear what the company retails: it is all about corsets, corsages and lingerie. The difference between corsages and other lingerie lies in the point that a corsage can be worn as clothing item. It can be combined with pants or skirts and creates a very feminine and elegant look on top.

You can already see from the packaging of the product, which came in a box with wrapping paper that the corsage has a higher quality. I bought Halloween costumes in the past which used like cheap-quality corsages or something similar looking, but this is totally different. It has integrated harder parts which give you a nice posture and add to give a slimmer waist. The corsage really feels like something proper to wear.

It can be adjusted on the back by straps (be sure to loosen them before you wear the corsage) and has sturdy fastenings at the front to close the corsage up. There is a ribbon in the front as well… The pretty pattern shows black flower embroideries on a beige fabric.

The pattern combined with the ruffling on the top and bottom rounds up the image nicely. It looks really high quality and elegant. The ribbons add even more to the beauty of this piece of clothing! I can imagine that this will look wonderful with a tufted skirt/knee-long ballerina skirt…or with an A-Line cocktail skirt.

All in all I’m in love with my choice and I’m already looking for a skirt that fits to it, to make it a complete outfit. The Corsage by Chilirose retails for 39.90 € from Zugeschnürt and they also deliver to other countries than Germany. If you like corsages and corsets you might want to take a look at their other products, too!

What is your opinion to this corsage? How would you combine it best?

Sammydress Fashion Review

28. November 2015

It’s been a long time since my last fashion post! I did so many beauty product reviews I hardly had time to spend on clothing :D Did you hear about Sammydress before? I could choose a couple of products from Sammydress for reviewing purpose recently and I was overwhelmed by the variety of clothing and fashion related items they offer. I never ordered there before, so I was really curious about the quality and the duration of delivery, especially since they sell their products for very affordable prices. I decided on a blouse, a belt and a shoulder bag to start with. Here is my impression:

Sammydress is a global online fashion retailer with a wide range of Women’s Clothing, Men and Women’s Shoes, Bags and Accessories, Casual Dresses, Special Occasion Dresses and Accessories, Wedding Dresses, Fashion Jewelry, Intimate Lingerie, Wigs, Cosplay Costumes, Men’s Clothing, Children’s Toys, Home & Living, Lifestyle Products and many more. The products are manufactured in China and thus they can provide affordable prices. They are shipping worldwide, too. Their online site is easy to navigate and very straightforward divided into the different topics of products they offer. Shipping took 12 days for the products to arrive at my doorstep.

Let’s start off with this amazing popcorn bag shaped shoulder bag: I saw this bag previously on another blog, but I could not remember which one (I think it was on Emi-Doll’s blog). The design of this bag is so unique, which is why I had to choose it in first place! I love these kind of extravagant, unique designed handbags! The bag comes with a chain shoulder strap, which can be removed if you don’t like it. I prefer shoulder bags, so I’m using it with the strap attached. The popcorn bag is available in black or red, and has a golden base color. The inside is made of canvas and can be closed by a string. It is large enough (14cm x 10cm x 21cm) to keep a phone, a small umbrella, a small book, and so on. During the transportation one side was bumped in a bit, but it could be brought back to shape easily. I really like this bag and at a discounted price of ~9 US$ during black Friday sales at the moment a total steal. Usually it retails for 25.83 US$.

Second item I chose was this rose flower buckled waist belt. The breach is made of two metal roses and the size is adjustable, too. Unfortunately, the adjustment is loose and you have to readjust every few second. You can fix it by using a clip or something, but I would sooner choose another belt, although the price of 7.09 US$ (sale price 2.55 US$) is really tempting. The belt looks beautiful once it is fixed, but it is not convenient to use after all.

The last item I selected is this Double Lace Collar Polka Dot Blouse in light brown. You can choose between so-called Coffee Brown and White on the page, but this one is neither Coffee Brown, nor White, it is more a sand/ camel brown color, but It is super pretty and looks cute. It also has a vintage style, which I really like and fits nice with trousers and with a shirt. It was very crinkled when I received it, but I could iron it at medium temperature and it was perfect again. On the advertorial picture the collar looks broader than it is in reality. Some of the seams are also not 100% accurate, but the price of 15.52 US$ (sale 8.18 US$) justifies these imperfections. The blouse is claimed to be one size, but I think it is best suited for people with size “S” or small. I have European size 36 and it fits just right at the shoulders. If you have broader shoulders it might be a bit tight for you already.

All in all, I love the blouse and I’ve been wearing it often already. The bag is super adorable, too! A pity the belt is not adjustable properly, because it looks pretty, too. Except for the minor imperfections like the seams and excess yarn I’m happy with the products from Sammydress. The quality is comparable to the products you can order from Taobao or Aliexpress for example. I can imagine to browse their store occasionally in the future, too. Oh, and Sammydress has Black Friday Sales at the moment (27th -30th November) with discounts up to 80 % on the whole site, so maybe you can make some good deals.

Did you know Sammydress before? what are your experiences?
