Winter 2013 Angelic Pretty Lucky Packs + Opening


Angelic Pretty Lucky packs are know to be few and far between, however, they are my most favorite brand so it only stands to reason that I'd want to own one.  I've passed up the Lucky Packs in the past because it would be released on working days but this year the San Fran store had it on a Saturday.
These packs are an AMAZING deal that are very hard to pass up.  PLUS this time round it was a bunny print and I go crazy for bunnehs!

Onto what LPs were available!

Internet Sale

This event was a complete bust.  It took place on January 1st at noon and everything was gone in less then 60 seconds.  I had four people helping me camp the website to buy my LP.  One of my friends got the dress that I wanted in their cart when everything went gone.  There had to be the use of scripts for them to go so fast.  I like the fact that they make these specials available to other Lolitas that are not local and can not go to the store, however, it was ridiculous how fast they went.

LP Store Sale

Having not been able to get a Lucky Pack through the Internet sale, I opted for my second option, going to the store early on the 5th.  Living only an hour away it was an option that I couldn't really pass up this time round.  With a bunny print at stake I just HAD to.
My darling boyfriend and I went early to San Fran to sit out in front of the store and wait for their opening.  Dressing in many layers we waited for hours for the opening and sale.  I attempted to sew ponies while I waited and talked to my boyfriend about various lolita styles and brands while looking at the newest Gothic Lolita Bible Mook.
After losing some of the feeling in my feet and hands it was finally time to go inside and pick!  We were the second group in line and had the pick of the litter.
Shop Girl: "Which one were you wanting?"
Me: "The Pink JSK?"
Shop Girl: "That one is already taken."
Me: "The Blue JSK?"
Shop Girl: "Here it is"
Me: "Squeeeee!"
The credit card machine was down in the shop so most of us had to wait for it to charge up.  I was able to look around in the shop and oogle all of the pretty prints and dress designs and show them off to my wonderful boyfriend who had never been to the Angelic Pretty Store before.
I just out of the store with my LP in hand, jumping up and down, a grin from ear to ear and squeeing like a fool.  I opened my LP and looked inside and all the pretty things!
I absolutely adore the print on the dress and am so very pleased with it.  It is slightly mind blowing to think that there are so few of these dresses out there, especially in the USA. But, onto what, if your looking at this, you probably wanted to see in the first place.  The opening of the Lucky Pack and all that is inside it.

Wig Review - L-email

This is a review on wigs from www.wig-supplier.com

The basics:

The bag that they came in
This is a brand that comes out of China.
 
Price:  Their prices are very very cheap.  I do not question about it too much because it is so very nice to be able to buy new pretty wigs and build up my collection even more.  This last time I bought wigs from them (for black friday/ holiday) they were having a 10% off sale on all their already cheaply priced wigs.


I heard you liked bags so this one was in the other
Shipping time: Their shipping is pretty fast, I bought my wigs on November 26th and received them on December 10th. 
 
Shipping Price:  The price for shipping was almost the price of all the wigs put together... but then again, the shipping price alone was less then the price of a normal nice wig from another wig supplier. 

The Meat:

This is the second time I have gotten wigs from this store in china and I love the quality that they come in.  The fibers are very soft and fine.  They are just as goo a quality as the fancy wigs that you can get from GothicLolita Wigs and at actual wig stores.
Unsure if you can style with them but its best just to say away from products that need heat anyway.

CB28
The first wig I pulled out was CB28, my Twilight Sparkle wig.  I love the settle gradients of purple and super bright pink to make a very pretty Twilight Wig. 
I got this wig because I thought it would be a good addition to my lolita wearing collection as well as a future MLP Twilight Sparkle cosplay.  I'm slowly making dresses and costumes for all the ponies, not just Pinkie Pie.






RW148
This is the second wig that I will be talking about, RW148 (T2127).  I bought this one to be a Pinkie Pie (from My Little Ponies: Friendship is Magic) wig as well as a nice lolita wig or just crazy casual wig.  It is a wig that can be all the crazy things and still look oh so good.
The actual colour is like a milky dark pink.  Some brands call it a milkshake pink.  It looks a little more magenta in pictures but in person it is a bit darker.
The curls are messy and look really nice and the length is long.
**See back pictures at bottom of blog post)



C60018

I've been wanting a wig like C60018 (27DH33/30) for a very very long time now.  Ever since I saw this split combination it has made me happy.  I kind of needed a curly-ish more normal looking wig that I could add to my collection.
The  clips are very full and do add quite a bit to the wig.
**See bottom pictures for a look of the back and without clips)







RW137
This bright purple wig is RW137 (T2411).  It is a base long wig with pigtail falls.  It is curly and I love it!  I bought it for use in Rairty Cosplays (from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic).  I'm currently in the process of designing and sewing a period dress based on the character and when I'm not trying to be "period" I can wear the purple hair and be more Pony then Person.







CB24
This wig made me happy.  I've always wanted a fluffy dandelion styled wig and this was cute too.  It is CB24 (TF2513/1001+1911/1001).
This is a picture directly out of the bag and I'm sure that when I'm going to wear it, it will fluff out nicely but until then I'll be keeping it a bit more tame.
The first thing that I noticed about this piece was that it was so very very soft.  A little thin on the base wig but very soft and nice.
