Collective Winter 2020 Haul

I was going to make a post on my most recent haul but I've decided to actually do a collective Winter 2020 haul. The reason for this, is to keep track of what I have received this season. I sold quite a few things as well after my wardrobe post. After the wardrobe post, I sorted through just about everything (except for shoes).

Sweet lolita JSK featuring bunnies wearing bows of different colours and birds.. The bottom of the dress has a striped boarder with lace. The bodice has three satin bows in different colours down the front and at the bottom a bow that's the same material as the dress. The shoulder straps also have small bows on them. The dress has polkadots.

Three pairs of socks on display. Left is pink with a bear with wings and snow flakes, middle is blue with a bear and stars and the right is white with a bunny and bows and polkadots.

This was an amazing buy. With the tags, in the box (still stuffed!). For 8K yen. 

A pink coat from Angelic Pretty with white faux fur details. The buttons are heart shaped. It has two pockets. The cuffs and hood of the coat are faux fur. The hood has two bunny ears. One of the ear has a tag on it like Lyrical Bunny does.

Look at those ears! So cute :)

A blue and white stripped blouse with a white yolk that has eyelet lace and a Peter Pan collar. The cuffs also have eyelet lace as well.
Nile Perch blouse.
The Nile Perch blouse was a totally spontaneous purchase. I had seen photos of the seller wearing it on Instagram and just really loved the look of the blouse. When I saw she was selling it, I took a chance knowing that it's kind of unusual and might not go with my wardrobe that well. Happy to have it.

Both necklaces from Sweet Dolly House.

Left is a white and blue pair of socks that looks like it has ribbon from the toe to the top of the sock ending with some polkadots right at the top of the sock. The right sock is green and also has a ribbon wrapping up it but also includes flowers along the ribbon.

Right: Innocent World Cross Ribbon High Socks
One hair accessory is three head bows along the side of the band in different colour. The band has lace and so does each bow. The second is a single head bow in a satin material with ladder lace and also mini bows on the end of each side of the bow. It is slightly offset to the side of the band.
Triple Ribbon Lace Head Bow and Ladder Lace Mini Ribbon Head Bow
I would love to find the triple ribbon lace head bow in the "pink" colourway because it includes yellow and blue so I think it would work really well with Happy Garden.

I also received the Innocent World Apron with Skirt and a pair of Bodyline shoes but I haven't included any photos of those. Instead, here is a me wearing both of them:

That should all the new additions. At least, what I can remember. I should probably try to document things a bit more regularly. ><
What I sold this winter:
  • Kiss Me! Cat Marie OP
  • Seraffi JSK
  • Bright Starry OTKs
  • Glitter Ribbon OTKs
  • Triple Ribbon Bolero
  • Maria Antonio OP
  • Sweet Girl Head Bow
  • Lace Up Ribbon OTKS
  • Marie Parka
  • Toy Fantasy Print Parka (I kind of regret selling with whenever I look at it)
  • Toy Fantasy Skirt
  • Toy Fantasy Socks
  • Victoria Princess Cuffs
  • Bodyline Polkadot OP
  • Polka Dot Milk-Chan Applique Skirt (sad to see this one go but I want a different colourway)
  • Milky-Chan Socks, black colourway
Obviously, I made some headway in closet cleaning. A lot of that money was used to buy things in this haul post. There's still more I want to sell but I'm not sure what the best method of selling things is. If it's not a hot item, do I just keep relisting it or what?

Another thing I wanted to note is that this was a very "sweet" focused season for me. Very few things were classic/sweet-classic. This is fine with me. It felt good to let go of some things though :)

  1. Oooh, amazing deal on those sneakers!
    In my experience, selling is either a matter of luck or of perseverance. You need to have your listing at the right place and time, so just keep relisting and bumping up Facebook sales posts. There hasn't been anything I've been unable to sell, sometimes it simply took longer than I would've wanted.

I keep referring to it as the "Spare" room. My husband corrects me that it is "My" room. In our previous two apartments,...
