Saying Goodbye

I've always been a hoarder, and with my lolita clothing I seem to have an even harder time of parting with things.

Up until now I'd only been able to part with things that didn't fit, or that I never liked (such as lucky pack items or when I bought my first items which were the cheapest you could get on Bodyline...).

However, today I parted with something much more special. My first Angelic Pretty item, which was my second brand piece, and my first brand 'main' piece.


I feel so sad about selling it! But it was just a piece I never really wore. When I bought it I found it uncomfortably tight, and while I can still get it on now my waist is a good few inches bigger than before! It's also a really heavy piece so it always fell a little too long for my taste. I only wore it once, back when I still didn't even have a blouse (and I looked absolutely terrible!). But I still love it - it's pretty unusual, cute, and everything you could want in a Winter piece. I actually like it a lot more now than when I bought it, but it's too bulky to store (I have negative room at the moment...) and due to it being a more seasonal piece I thought it was time to let it go.


I really hope it arrives to its new owner swiftly and safely, and that they get the enjoyment and use out of it I never did!

I also parted with another piece, a Metamorphose tote bag. Along with a broken graphics tablet, a Popteen magazine and a MLP book, I made just over £100 on eBay. Which at first sounds awesome, but I paid out for the postage on all but one item (£8) and I'm sure fees will be a bitch as always. But still better than having stuff lying around unused! Hope some of my other items shift too so I start saving some money up.

Shameless eBay plug is shameless.

More items I love to bits and don't want to part with, but I need to get rid of about 20 pieces if I want to fit them into my house, and ideally I'd like to fit them into my wardrobe!

Sales: Shoes

Going through a massive clear out of my stuff which is happening in several stages (I am a hoarder, I hate getting rid of anything and some of my stuff I'd rather sell than give away, so I'm probably going to be sticking up several posts like this...and will need to keep going through my stuff again and again to dwindle it down).

I have feedback here.

Feel free to make offers, ask questions and request more pictures if interested. These will be taken to a charity in a couple of weeks, so be swift!

Selling as I never wear these things anymore or because they don't fit. Most have been worn only a couple of times and mostly indoors unless otherwise specified.

Better shoes are at bottom (including some Angelic Pretty!), so please scroll down!

Various sizes (mainly UK3-5), I've listed the size I feel that they fit like as well as marked size as some of them are very off! If the difference in sizes is small though, you might want to go by the marked size. I am about a UK4.25 (awkward!) for reference, that's why I can't be sure of fit!

Prices include shipping to the UK (for most of these the postage will cost at least £3, so please bear that in mind when making offers!). Paypal payment preferred.

Items will be shipped out as quickly as possible, but please bear in mind that there is no post office in my village, I can't drive and there are no buses! But rest assured I'll get them posted somehow, probably using my minions.
