Ista Mori - Nameless Poem (2014/ Re-release)

Ista Mori - Nameless Poem (2014)

Hello beautiful people.

So yesterday morning I received my Ista Mori - Nameless Poem OP, re-release version in the mail. I didn't think it would arrive this week.

How I went about ordering the dress:

I had looked at my options of where and how I could purchase it. I knew that Ista Mori had a Storevny page which you purchase/ pre-order and of their releases, but the only issues for me was that the prices were in USD, which the exchange rate in AUD ened up pretty expensive. 

So I went to have a look around at the many shopping services that people used for Taobao and weighed my options. As usual some of services offered a fair deal in terms of Service Fee, delivery rates and what currency they used for payments. Some of them didn't have an option for HKD/ RMB to AUD currency. Usually it'll would be HKD/ RMB to USD but the exchange rate wasn't much of a difference which in fact wasn't too much of a problem.

So after taking the time to think which shopping service I wanted to take on. I decided on using Loli-Loli Paradise shopping services on Facebook. I messaged Loli-Loli Paradise on 6th Nov (2014) for a quote before I had decided if I really wanted to buy this dress. In which she replied back to me on the 7th of Nov. I confirmed my details to her and she invoiced me via Pay Pal for the first half of the pre-order payments. Since this was a pre-order I would have to wait pretty much til end of year to next year this I received my dress. I was then invoiced on 23rd of Dec for the second half of the pre-order payment. I received another message on the 28th of Dec, that my order would be shipped out. So it took just under 2 weeks for my package to arrive to my place. Unfortunately I did not receive a tracking number for my package so I wasn't sure when the dress would arrive.

Over all time: approximately 2 months

Shopping Service: Loli-Loli Paradise

Very good communication, transaction of payment went pretty smoothly and package was well packed.

Here is the dress with and without the detectable collar

 Details on the cross embroidery, it's actually silver, in the stock photo it looks white.

The construction of the dress is really well made. At first I thought it would be a light chiffon material but it's pretty heavy, polyester material. It has another layer for the lining, which gives it more thickness and weight the dress. The dress has great feeling and texture. The dress is long on me since I'm only 153 cm (5.1 ft) @_@ compared to a lot of other girls I know who have the dress, which whom are taller than me so the dress comes off shorter for them.

I found this dress quiet simply beautiful and that I love black and white dresses. the embroidery and buttons are quiet beautiful in person. When I tried the dress on, I love how it looked on me since I was worried that the style wouldn't fit me.

I will definitely take photos of me in the dress sometimes when it's not 40 Billion degree Celsius in Australia!

Thank you for coming by and reading!!
