WigIsFashion Review!

Another first time review! I've done one other wig review before but I've got a ton of experience with wigs, as you probably know. WigIsFashion was kind enough to sponsor me a wig, and as a avid cosplayer I just couldn't say no! I use wigs constantly, in and out of cosplay. In fact I own probably around 40 wigs, all varying in colour, quality, and style. So as this was my first experience with them, I decided to review a very generic, versatile black wig.

This is how it was advertised on the site! You can see it here.

Basically the most average wig you can find, right? Which is why it's perfect for testing out quality and playing around with different looks!

Here I'm wearing it straight out of the bag, completely unstyled, just a pin in the front to keep it out of my face.

Just by putting it on and fluffing it around a bit i could tell that it would hold well when styled. It's thick but not TOO thick, and the texture of the fibers was nice as well. It also doesn't look shiny and cheap in direct light which is another sign of quality.

Here it is after a bit of cutting and a hint of hairspray, nothing drastic.

I'm still not sure what I'm going to end up using this wig for but since it's so versatile I might use it as a fashion wig until I can decide a purpose!

For now it works for Marshall Lee really well. Maybe Hiro, even Kanaya if styled right... I'll definitely be using this more in the future and I'm definitely hoping I can try some more products from WigIsFashion! They've proved themselves reputable and high quality and so I'd definitely recommend checking them out!

And don't forget to look at the huge selection of low-priced lacefronts!!! It's hard to find good quality ones at prices like these!

Banggood Review!

This is my first time working with Banggood and it's been awesome! They let me choose a few items to review (I still have some jewelry pieces on the way, for which I'll do a separate review) and this is what I picked:

Galaxy Snapback

Hologram Lazer Backpack

Witching Hour Sheer Top

I'll start with the hat. Here's how it's advertised on the site:

And this is what I received! The colour looks a bit dull in my pictures but I can assure you that's just the lighting and the blues and purples and deep and rich and very space-y looking!

The pattern is really cool! It's good quality as well which is impressive for the price. There's also galaxy hats that have the pattern covering the entire hat (you can find them here) and though I like both, the preferred the one with the black because it acts as an accent rather than a focal point. I used it to accent my galaxy sweater and makeup in these pictures:

And it pulled this outfit together by adding a hint of colour

I'm actually wearing the next item I'm going to talk about in this pic! It's the hologram backpack, something I've been dying to have for ages. I've absolutely fallen in love with the whole futuristic, space/holographic trend.

Here is the item as shown online:

Here is what I got:

The colours and reflections are even more cool in person! I've worn it out once already and got so many compliments on it and I'm not at all surprised. I can tell this is going to become the center of 

 my wardrobe.

It's well-made and although I'm not a huge fan of the mustard interior, it's going to remain closed 99% of the time so it's not really an issue. Besides, the fabric is nice even if the colour isn't my favourite. There's plenty of pockets and places to put things. It's definitely worth the price. Make sure to check out the other options of hologram bags, gold, purple, and rainbow!

Finally we've got the witching hour tee. Here's what it looks like on the site:

And that's exactly how it looks!

It's quite sheer so you can wear a bandeau or sports bra underneath if you need to cover your chest. I really loved it and the whole warlock vibe it gave me. I even wore my Howl wig and crystal necklace to really kick up the witchiness. I'm definitely hoping to find more items like this and direct my look this way.

This shirt was great. Just long enough, soft fabric, perfect amount of bagginess. The only flaw would be that it clings when it gets a little statically charged. Nothing a bounce sheet can't fix!

So basically my first experience with Banggood was fantastic! I'm looking forward to working with them again in the future and finding more quality items from them. I highly recommend shopping here since there's a wide selection of all sorts of items, and they're all low-priced too!

Syndrome Tees Review

This isn't my first review with Syndrome. Before this, I reviewed an awesome Sailor Moon shirt. You can see my review for that here!

You can probably tell I've put this review off for a while since I have pics in the shirts from before I bleached my hair haha. Since I got them in the mail I've worn them quite a bit.

I'll start with the "Fuck Off" Shirt. I've been really drawn to black clothes lately. So naturally I picked this shirt. In addition to being black, it has a great message to anyone who feels like bugging me. I get a lot of unwanted attention when i dress up girly, so this was a perfect addition to one of my recent looks, as you can see below:

Cute, but won't take shit from anybody. That's the vibe I'm going for.

But because this shirt is pretty simple it works for a variety of looks.

The other shirt I got was this egg one. I adore it! I was especially amused when I found out that the Japanese text roughly translates to something like "The love of cats, moe moe cats, nyan nyan love"

(jacket from sheinside)

For whatever reason eggs seem to be very popular online and in harajuku fashion, and of course I'm no exception. My strange love for eggs won't end with this shirt and next thing you know i'll be wearing those socks with little eggs embroidered on them. I'm not complaining. It's a cute trend and this shirt is the perfect item for it. In fact here's some other cute egg stuff you can find on Syndrome!

egg sweater

egg bag

Both shirts were good quality and made of very soft material which I really liked. They run quite small (the Fuck Off shirt is just long enough) so keep that in mind! This was another great experience with Syndrome and I highly recommend shopping here.

SheInside Review

(wearing the denim hoodie from sheinside and egg tee from syndrome store)

I've put it off for a while but I'm finally getting around to my SheInside Review. I got a bit of a haul this time around and wanted to take enough time to get nice pictures of them all. I was given 3 items, they're listed below:

Parental Advisory Mesh Shirt

Hooded Denim Jacket

Grey and Black Drawstring Pants

First off I'm gonna start with the pants. I chose them because I really don't own enough bottoms and they looked like they could go with a lot of outfits. I got these ones in medium. The sizing is as follows:

They were a bit tighter on then I'd expected but I still really liked the way they looked. I don't think they're meant to be baggy anyways, though I think they'd look good either way and if that's the style you prefer you could easily just order a size up.

The second item is the shirt I'm wearing in that pic. The popular Explicit Content shirt. I've probably got the most use out of this item so far and it is one of my new favourite wardrobe pieces. I got this in medium as well. It's a really cool shirt although it can be tough to pull off. Since it's a crop top, the way it sits around the waist can really exentuate your hips, so if you're looking for something to hide your curves this isn't it. Also take into account your height/length of your torso. On shorter people, it can look more slimming since the bottom hem sits lower than the waist. I'm 5'7"-5'8"ish so it's a little higher on me.

Here are the measurements, etc.:

As you can see I've worn it plenty of times in the short time I've had this item. It makes me look so hardcore this shirt is a blessing and it's on sale right now too!

(jacket on far right also from sheinside, you can find it here and well as my review here)

The last item from this haul is the denim jacket. I cut up my old denim jacket not long ago and needed a new, better one, which is why I chose this item.

I got this one in large because i like my coats and outerwear to fit looser. It's nice for when I want to wear more layers of clothing under it, but I like baggy jackets in general anyways.

I really love this jacket. The sweater part under the denim is removable - it's essentially a hooded vest made of super soft sweater material - so it's super versatile! The denim part is shorter and the sweater underneath is longer and I really like the look of them together, but the jacket and vest look great on their own as well. I know I'll get a lot of use out of this item.

So altogether I had another great experience with SheInside. All the items I've received have been great quality and very accurate to what is advertised.  Make sure to check out my new wishlist and other great items in the shop!

FAIRY Princess Violet Lenses from Pinkicon

Pinkicon recently contacted me asking if I'd like to try out some contacts to review and of course I said yes! I'd actually never heard of the company before, but after looking it up and seeing that it seemed pretty reliable, I was very excited to be working with them. I gave them my prescription and they handled the rest.

In the package I found 2 boxes of lenses, some pamplets and some cute business cards and instructions and such. There were pictures of lots of different lenses they offer as well as false lashes they sell. I personally enjoyed being able to look through these little booklets and seeing what sorts of lenses they carry. I'm always looking out for what style I want to try next so this was a nice addition.

What they sent me was 10 pairs of purple 1day lenses. I used to use daily ones when I first started using contacts a few years ago. I always thought it was more hygienic and safe than year long ones, of even monthly ones, though I'll use any.

The boxes were super cute. The brand I got was FAIRY, one I've never tried before. I have used purple lenses before though, and I do like having something to compare to.

As you can see they're not in the little bottles like I'm sure a lot of my fellow cosplayers are used to. This is the packaging regular prescription lenses come in.

On the left I have one lens in, no makeup. On the right, I have both in with my makeup on (I skipped falsies and mascara because I'm lazy oops)

I really like how these show up on my eyes! They're not so crazy bright purple like my other pair so they seem much more natural and would be wearable for casual day-to-day looks. They're also super comfortable, which would be partially thanks so the short term wear. After one day you can just toss them and start fresh and clean with the next!
