More Iplehouse Aria Spam

Sorry guys, I couldn't resist.

Here is the Iplehouse frilly blouse set on an SID female doll. The skirt's a lot shorter than I had wanted though.

Here it is on Aria:

I changed her wig because the Iplehouse one slipped off her head too much, which is a shame; so this is a Nine9style and OMG she looks like a mini Tiffany from SNSD (but I really wanted a mini Taeyon lol). She actually reminds me of a Japanese gyaru, so I'm very pleased with how she looks <3 She's so adorableeeee.

I had a dark-brown wig too which is the exact same, so same length and same straight fringe, but she kind of looked like the girl from The Ring so....er yeah I just changed it to this brown one instead haha. She can stand fine on her own :) but because I made her sit at some point, she bends over easily >o<

The tweed skirt at the back looks like a corset so it's tied together with string. The black stockings that come with the skirt were wayyyyy too tight so I left them alone. Although I really can't justify how nice the doll and the clothes are in real life.

I hope you can see her face-up properly in this picture:

I put her beside Reiji again. I think they like being near each other :3

Oh and this her dark brown wig. (sorry for blurriness)

From now on I'll call it 'The Ring' wig. You know, cos she looks like the girl from The Ring. LOL

Iplehouse Aria Arrives!

Hi everyone! I would like to share with you all that I received my first Iplehouse BJD today! I'm so happy because I was working a crappy 10am to 7pm shift, put up with so much crap during my work, got rejected from a job that I had interviewed for earlier on in the day before my shift - and then I came home to find that this was waiting for me! I'm so happy! It really lifted my spirits up!!!!

I haven't actually seen many Iplehouse Aria's around so I hope these photos contribute :3 I got her in Normal Skin plus faceup A and I put her on 2 month layaway. Unfortunately I ordered her at the end of November and then Iplehouse started their Christmas promotion. But oh well, I am glad she's here! 

I made a video but it's my first and for some reason it's disappeared from my camera(?!). 

Anyway, LET THE PICTURE SPAM BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!

Warning: Doll Nudity!

1. The box was huge but so light. It stood up to my elbows

2. The box was orange with a flimsy lid and was very good quality. I'm keeping this!!!! No way am I going to throw it out XD

3. The infamous foam lol. But this time it's a foam woman XD Aria was carefully wrapped in bubblewrap around her neck, legs, feet and arms but they slipped off fairly easily. She's actually a lot bigger than I had thought. She had a facemask which I had removed but thank god it was there because I saw some debris on it and it would've ruined the faceup.

I chose Aria because she reminds me a lot of my OC (Ruby) from one of my fanfics, Oh My Alucard. I've never had a clear image of Ruby in my head but when I saw Aria I just thought she fit the bill!!!!! 

4. I put away my guy doll because she was nekkid lol. I got her with small boobezz so she could fit into more clothing except from Iplehouse (or so I hope... lol). Even though it was a small bust I thought it was still rather large LMAO (in that case I wonder what glamour size is like O_O)

5. She came with the assembly manual, COA and even the calendar. OMFG I DIDN'T THINK I QUALIFIED FOR A CALENDAR BECAUSE I'M SURE THEY SAID IT WAS FOR ORDERS PLACED IN DECEMBER :O THANK YOU IPLEHOUSEEEEEEEE

6. I also got her a wig and some clothes so she's not totally nude XD But they packaged the swan dress set as if they just shoved it inside with little care...

7. Her body is so awesome!!!!!! And she's got toenails and fingernails!!! The detail is amazinggggg

Sorry Ive never had a girl doll before so this is all so so new o_O

8. Finally, she is all dressed up. Sorry for the crap photography. I'm no pro lol. Btw her wig is quite loose and slips off quite a lot. But it's veryyy pretty  They gave her blue eyes - I wanted brown but Iplehouse said its random and in the end, I'm okay with it, because you know what??? Ruby in Oh My Alucard has blue eyes and brown hair! whooooo~~~~

I got her other clothes too (the newest frilly blouse and skirt and a pair of heels but I thought I'd show them to you guys later).

9. I put her to stand beside Reiji.

Reiji: ............(It's a girl. What do I do?) 

LOL

And I have them holding hands too haha. I think they look quite cute together. She's rather tiny compared to him XD I know Reiji's quite a mahoosive doll being 70cm but I didn't know he'd be that big hahaaha.

Anyway I'm so happy with her :3 She's much more beautiful in person and I'm so glad I bought her XD Ohhh Iplehouse, I will be loyal to you forever!!!!!

Thanks for looking!

Doll Plans for 2015

So, this post is also posted up on my wordpress blog, but I hate, absolute HATE the new wordpress dashboard so I find this blog much much easier to post up things.

Anyway, here goes:

I have something to share with you all:

I did the unthinkable…

…I ordered an Iplehouse doll.

I ordered an SID Aria with A-type faceup, who should be coming on Tuesday, according to the courier, Parcelforce. I actually ordered her waaaay back in November last year and popped her onto a layaway plan. I raged for a while because after I ordered her, Iplehouse started their Christmas event. At that time, it didn’t quite dawn to me what I had just did and I just went around life as usual….but when the final paypal invoice came through from Iplehouse, I saw the email and I was so excited. And then I also had a little buyer’s remorse.

Aria cost me a lot TT_TT” And I also had to pay customs charges too…

There were several reasons I chose her, especially because she was a female doll and she never popped up in my previous doll posts or anything, but when I saw her pictures on the Iplehouse website, I thought her sculpt was just lovely, there was nothing I could see wrong, and I really wanted her as part of my doll collection.

Second….most doll owners buy dolls because they use them as their OCs. I guess that’s quite true, because OMG! She just screamed ‘Ruby‘ to me. Although I probably won’t call her ‘Ruby‘ or anything when she comes through the post. I really want a Claude too, but for the time being he is only available on Doll Choice and there is no layaway option and seeing all that cash vanish from my bank at once will probably tear me apart (and my family, because they hate dolls)…

But if I think about it…

I blogged about dolls the first time back in 2013 and I mentioned how expensive they were and how I would probably never be able to afford them. Since then I’ve managed to order my first BJD last year – Reiji – and then I managed to order Aria and 2 others!

FYI – I have also ordered a Fairyland Feeple60 Mirwen and a Dollclans Kien but nothing exciting is happening yet because my account pages keeps saying something like this:

OMFG THE TORTURE.

THIS TOO.

I guess I’m a very impatient person because I really want to tear my tear my hair out. When will they be ready???? *cries*

I got Mirwen when Fairyland opened their Moe range. I don’t know what Fairyland dolls are like so I’m quite worried and I’ve never ordered before from them in general. Same goes for Dollclans, but when I ordered, they has a Christmas sale which was $60 off so that really kicked a lot off Kien LOL. I didn’t order any of the dolls with a faceup, except from Aria.

Actually, I really wanted this guy:

This is Ringdoll Norman Light 2.0. Okay, okay, ignore the creepy brain-doll thing, but omg! I really want him…. TT_TT”

Just to let you guys know: I work full-time, 9-5pm. Monday to Friday. I’m not an avid blogger, I don’t have a trillion followers, I don’t do youtube vids. I sell some stuff on ebay but only stuff I don’t need anymore. I just have a basic minimal income, but I actually wanted to use my earnings to spend on something that I really want, too. Hopefully I won’t buy any other dolls after these guys, eh? Well, I’ll still try and save up for Claude, at least…

OHH Claude why must you elude me?
