Taobao Mori Girl haul
Just before Chinese new year I put an order in with Taobaospree for a few mori girl items.
Taobaospree were very good and responded to my request very quickly.
Communication was great throughout the order process and always timely.
My experience was very good and I will continue to use them for future orders.
I ordered 6 items, most of them were from Slxi as well as one item from ForestGirlFans.
I'll start with the items from Slxi
layered knitted cardigan
I've wanted a loose knitted cardigan for a while and when I saw this one I thought it was exactly what I was looking for.
It comes in beige, blue and brown.
I would have bought beige but it was sold out so I ordered it in brown.
As you can see the front has layered lace and jersey which make it quite good for the layered look of mori girl without actually having to wear lots of layers!
The quality is good but my only negative is the lace ties at the front look flimsy and I can imagine them pulling off easily while wearing it,
my rating 4/5
Patchwork cutsew
I always seem to be short of basic long sleeve tops so one caught my eye when I was shopping on Slxi's site.
I'm really impressed with this, I thought it was just patchwork but it has a double layer and inner layer is trimmed with a lace hem.
I love how the top layer hangs over the lower one.
I'd give this one 5/5 it great for the price and I might get one or two other tops now.
Patchwork scarf
I have a few scarves and a love one I bought in my last taobao order but its lightweight and I wanted something a bit thicker to keep me warm in the windy british weather.
I really like all the colours and textures in this, its really big too but its not as thick as I thought it would be. I wore it the other day and its quite warm but not up to very cold winter days.
I'd give it 4/5, its nice but its only made with fine knits.
Lace trim skirt
I have too many skirts but I couldn't resist this one because of the length and the nice layers of lace.
The lace is nice and soft and the waistband is elasticated so its comfortable to wear.
It looks nice with the layers at the side or at the front. I'm sure I'll get lots of wear from this because I always wanted a ruffle skirt to wear with tunic tops.
This skirt gets a 5/5 from me, a great item for any mori girl wardrobe.
Skirt belt/shawl thingy
I'm usually quite careful when I shop on taobao, I'll save bookmarks and then whittle them down to a few items I really want. This skirt thingy just made me want it because it looked so different and it appealed to my love for CPK so I added it to my order form.
On the page its shown worn as a shawl, as a skirt over jeans and other items, I'm not sure yet how I'll wear it but its certainly wearable as a skirt and would maybe look nice over a longer one.
I'm not 100% sure about the colours either, I don't like the big block of brown that much but that's just me.
I'd give it 3.5/5
I don't really regret buying it but I could have bought something else more wearable instead.
Cat sweater
The last item is a cute cat sweater from ForestGirlFans
I had to have this because of cats...
I'm so glad I bought this, its adorable!
The cat is an appliqué that carries on around the back of the sweater and the little fish are made of crochet.
The inside is all velvety and soft so its lovely to wear.
5/5 I love it!
I hope you liked my review
