Drop Dead Sale Gets

I already own 2 Drop Dead tops, and found myself tempted by the recent sale. All the clothing I wanted was sold out by the time I made up my mind to order, so I only got a few bits and bobs on this occasion!

I ordered on the 24th, got shipping confirmation on the 28th, and received the items today on the 29th. Very speedy! The packaging was cool but I didn't take a photo as it got muddy from the postie leaving it down the side of the house -_-


The mini haul! I love how all the rings are in cute boxes!


The Pika beanie I wasn't sure about as it was still £15, but I figured I'd give it a go as I wear beanies a lot in the Winter.


It looks really stupid on...haha!


The Knuckleduster rings were also a bit of a disappointment as the backing is more obvious that the writing. The quality seems reasonable though, and the set was only £5.


I figured the Bite Me! ring would be good for sweet lolita coords! This was £5 too.


Crescent ring also £5 and also for lolita since I usually accessorise with gold. There is glue visible, but I quite like it worn as it has a nice shine.


I did order the Peace pendant (Mickey Mouse hand) to match with the crop I own, but it was out of stock. I was sent these socks as a gift in addition to the £5 refund. I was actually considering these socks but they were about £7.50 I think, and I wasn't sure I'd ever use them. Now I have no excuse to try though! I really like these.


I also got these Death! stickers for free! They're £3 on the site.

All in all I'm really happy with my haul. The items aren't the best quality, but the good service makes up for that (I LIKE FREE THINGS). That said, it would have been nice to know in advance that the item I wanted was out of stock, as I have a feeling that people missing out on bigger items may not have even made an order had they known the item was out of stock.

Now if only I could actually afford their clothes...

Lime Crime Lipstick Review & OOTD

People seem to think I'm mad for buying from them as they've had a lot of bad press, but I've also seen good reviews and I'm not going to trust the Internet about everything anyway! Plus if someone tells me not to do something I'm more likely to do it...

I'd been wanting some of their lipsticks for a while, firstly because the package is TOTALLY CUTE but also because they make colours no one else does.

I ordered from Cocktail Cosmetics at 1pm yesterday, and they arrived this morning at 9am. Woah, that was quick! The lipsticks were £11.50 each and shipping was £3.25. They are cheaper on Space NK (£7.50 each) as all Lime Crime products are half price on there, but they didn't have both of the colours I wanted and shipping was a whopping £5!

They arrived in a regular featherpost packet, and required signature upon delivery. I had been expecting a more personalised packet since companies normally do, but oh well! Inside they were in a bubble-wrap pocket. If you order direct from Lime Crime I think you get everything in a box.


DAT UNICORN. The boxes are slightly different as one of them was limited edition, and thus older. The colour on the insides of the boxes correspond to the colour of the lipstick.


This is the colour D'Lilac. I thought it'd look great with fairy-kei! Unfortunately the foil of the unicorn is messed up on this tube, but obviously that doesn't affect the product. And the lipstick itself smells delicious! It reminds me of old-school Play-Doh! There are other lilac lipsticks on the market, but most of them look really naff. There is a MAC version, but I couldn't find it for sale, and it costs a little more anyway.


This is Mint To Be, a limited edition lipstick. I was only able to find this colour on the website I ordered from, and it is now sold out there too - I must have snapped up the last one! It looks reaaaally bright in the tube. This is a pretty unique colour.


Swatched. And um I apparently have a scratch on my hand?


Two-tone lips! (Don't worry, this is due to laziness and is thus not some freaky fashion statement!) The lipsticks are very soft, and I've heard they are prone to breaking off. But as long as I'm gentle, they should be fine (my room is so freezing that they're having a merry old time so far). As such they are a little odd to apply though as my other lipsticks are really hard!


I'm quite impressed though as people were complaining that they weren't bright enough, but I only gave my lips a quick, imperfect coat and they look fine. I don't even find them uncomfortable to wear (some lip products make my lips swell and tingle, even when they aren't plumping xP).


I'm a little relieved as I wasn't sure they'd suit me - the D'Lilac especially I've only seen look good on pretty blonde girls! I am a little disappointed with that colour though as it doesn't 'pop' very much, due to my natural lip colour already being quite purple. I probably should have bought Airborne Unicorn instead!

Overall I am very pleased with my purchases! If I use them a lot I'll probably buy more colours...I definitely have my eye on the No She Didn't shade!

And here's my outfit from today, just because.


Was supposed to be fairy-kei inspired, but I look more like a hipster that fell into a candy store.
