Description Stocking
Panty
Photo thx

Shoes, skirts, aprons and bows all made by me. Blouses tailored.

Fell in love with these outfits as soon I saw them! Only appeared for about 10 seconds in the working episode, but the bright colors, cute design and retro rollerblades were just right up my alley! Total sucker for retro things~

The rollerblades were such a pain to paint, the originals were black with red and yellow wheels. Had to unscrew everything and spray it white before painting with acrylic paints. I got muscle pain in my right arm for two days from constantly screwing and unscrewing bolts and screws. (; ̄д ̄)URGH↓↓ The paint started cracking a bit, but thankfully you can't see it~ The wheels got so dirty from us skating around! had never gone rollerblading before and it was hilarious watching her stumble around~ The black order-pad thing that I'm holding is actually Juice's mirror.

We happened upon this almost abandoned RBT cafe in a more obscure part of University City in Guangzhou, it was sooo lucky since we had no idea where we were gonna find an outdoor cafe that would let us shoot. The staff were super nice and lent us the trays (although of course we had to buy the drinks in the photos~). There was a real rollerblading gathering there in the plaza below and it was so embarrassing tripping around in our retro wheels while there were pros gliding about in in-line skates below. ( ̄ー ̄|||)

I wanna do all the outfits from the working episode!!!!! ヽ(*´∀`*)ノ

Thank you! I'm actually wearing the Stocking pigtails wig you linked to in your journal, haha.

Oh wow really? Do you like them? I want to do these outfits (and the workout outfits and the bunny suits haha) and wanted the wig for them. Was it a good buy?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Mikorio In reply to missy-cupcake [2011-05-31 01:36:40 +0000 UTC]

It was! The color is much better than most on Taobao (the horrid hot pink and bright blue) and it's really smooth and easy to brush. The only downside is that it looks like the classic clip-on pigtails, I wanted to add wefts to the back to get a parting but the shop doesn't sell extensions and I don't think I could match the color perfectly.

Do the workout outfit!!! I don't think anybody's done it yet!

missy-cupcake In reply to Mikorio [2011-05-31 02:31:11 +0000 UTC]

Yay! And I've just given up on pigtails wigs, if the back looks weird then oh well lol.

AND YESSSSS WORKOUT! I'm a fatty but I've been losing weight pretty quickly so I want to do pictures as I get thinner but then put them in reverse order so it looks like she's getting fatter lolol

Ahhh! Such a great idea!!! Great inspiration from the workout theme too!!! I have to diet too QAQ. It'll be awesome if you actually do it!

I want to, but then I have to drag my tripod into the neighborhood and take pictures like a crazy person haha~
Oh hey btw do you have C C Kid's regular Stocking wig too? I need to buy a new one and I really want their's except I'm worried about it looking cheap in the sunlight.

Mikorio In reply to missy-cupcake [2011-06-02 03:52:34 +0000 UTC]

No, I bought my regular Stocking wig from a really cheap store. It's one of those horrific bright blue and hot pink ones, but I edited in photos to make it darker. I think C.C. Kid's regular one should be alright, but their wigs are notorious for being thin (although very smooth).

missy-cupcake In reply to Mikorio [2011-06-03 01:36:11 +0000 UTC]

Aw that's too bad D: but I couldn't tell from the pics, so nice editing job!
Hmmmm... I really need a new wig (my current one is two different wigs and the blue one shines like a cheap party city wig in direct sunlight ew) and I want the one from Lucaille, the only thing is my shitty blue one is from there too so idk if it'll shine as well \: The blue one was really cheap though, especially compared to the pink one, so maybe it's just bad fibers?
And ffffff C. C. Kids being thin might be a dealbreaker, although if it doesn't tangle as much then I'd be okay with that. God someone just needs to flat-out say which Stocking wig is the best lol.

Mikorio In reply to missy-cupcake [2011-06-03 05:02:58 +0000 UTC]

They'd have to buy 50 wigs from different shops to compare them, and most of them are from the same factories anyway. If the one before from a specific shop was shiny then chances are the others will be too, what about Alpaca's wig shop. You tried them? Their quality is amazing and the colors on their Stocking wig is the best I've seen yet. I own a Takagi and Elize wig from them and they're pretty full and very smooth. Plus Alpaca's gradient wigs are to DIE for. ^_^

missy-cupcake In reply to Mikorio [2011-06-03 05:09:35 +0000 UTC]

I WILL DO IT SOMEDAY, I SWEAR LOL.
And ooooh that sounds awesome. I just found their shop. Omg their wigs look amazing, plus they look a lot cheaper than other taobao shops. You're right about the colors, they look amazing! It doesn't look like they ship directly to the US but honestly with the colors and your vouch for their quality I'm okay with it.

Mikorio In reply to missy-cupcake [2011-06-03 14:46:54 +0000 UTC]

Big-name shops like Fantasy Sheep overprice everything, Alpaca's shop-keeper I'm pretty sure speaks a decent level of English so you could probably ask her about direct shipping to the US. Her DA

omggggggggg seriously? You're the best. I just sent her a pm. If this works out then I think pretty much all my future wigs are coming from there, they're seriously gorgeous.
