Haul: Taobao and AliExpress

By Herugliness

Hello! ~♥  I am back with another haul posts, this time from two different stores Taobao, and AlixEpress. AliExpres actually isn't anything else but Taobao, just a platform for Taobao sellers to sell their items directly overseas, as usually you need a shopping agent to purchase from Taobao if you don't live in China. The thing about Aliexpress is that a lot of sellers do wholesale only, meaning only selling you multiples of the same item, and who needs the same skirt 10 times? But what you can never have enough of, even the same, is socks.

Mori Girl Socks AliExpress

I bought these socks from Forest Girl's Store on AliExpress. They are 20 pairs, in 5 different colors. The label on them actually says Tutuanna, but having bought a lot of Tutuanna socks in Japan before, especially these lace-frill type socks, I am pretty sure that they are not original Tutuanna socks, because Tutuanna ones always have cotton lace frills, while these have synthetic frills. I prefer the cotton version a lot (this synthetic ones just look cheaper), but the socks are still nice and I won't complain for a price of $1.85 per pair.

Mori Girl Slippers

These home slippers were sold in single units, which I am very glad about, because I certainly don't need the same shoes 10 times or more. They are perfect Mori Girl style shoes for me and I love them a lot. The quality of them is quite good too, though at first one of the shoes was making a funny sound each time I stepped down. I guess there was some vacuum somewhere between the sole, but luckily it stopped pretty soon. For those of you who might be interested - They also come in  pink and were bought from Sarah J's Store at AliExpress.

Mori Girl Taobao shopping 森ガール I know I am trying not to buy any more clothes, because I already have so many, but I fell in love with this dress when I saw it in ayakaqjd (A store I had bought from before) on Taobao, so I got weak and bought it. I think the colors look a bit funny in the picture, because they looked so different at first and I tried to edit it to finally get the color to show the way it really is. I think this dress is perfect for Mori Girl layering look and probably would also go well with Dolly Kei or even Cult Party Kei. I haven't had the chance to wear it yet (I have too many clothes, did I mention it already?), but I am looking forward to.Mori Girl Taobao shopping 森ガールMori Girl Taobao shoppingI bought these pants from maggie-z on Taobao, another store I really love. Pants are really the only clothes where I have an excuse for buying them: I honestly hardly own any. These are super cute with the ribbon and the cotton lace frills at the bottom and I love the little details like the wood buttons and the lace at the corner of the pockets. However, I have a criticize one thing: The pants are comfortably loose on me, similar to like they are on the official product photos and just like I wanted them to be, expect for at the bottom, were they are super tight! I know I am far from being Asian-standart thin, so such difficulties are to be expected when you buy clothes from there, but I usually just stay away from tight pants and therefore don't have this problem. Usually it's rather difficult to get my fat thighs into Asian pants, but here my calfs are causing the problem. I can wear them completely fine if I move them up to around me knees, but if I want to wear them further down they get uncomfortable after a while.  I know they don't look too exciting just hanging there like this, so I have a wearing photo too, which I already posted on my Facbook page a while ago:

I have some more stuff both from AliExpress and Taobao, but this post is getting too long, so I will save it for next time. See ya!
