Woo! All right! Here we go! A shopping review post, just as promised!

Today I would like to talk about shoes. My reasoning behind choosing this particular category is because there’s this store, see, and it’s got these pretty mind-blowing shoes.

See what I mean?

Anyway, this store is called Dream Vision. I have in the past always referred to it as “Dream V,” because that’s what’s in its url. It is also commonly referred to as “Yume Tenbo,” but I think it might be more commonly made one word as “Yumetenbo.” This store has a lot of names. The main thing you need to know is that you can shop its overseas shipping page here.

I’ve briefly mentioned Dream Vision before, in my Rakuten Shopping Guide. c: Furthermore, almost all of the shoes I’m going to spotlight in this post have already been posted on my Kawaii Shopping Tumblr, an experimental blog I set up in catalogue format, because I thought Tumblr was very well suited to that sort of thing. Unfortunately I haven’t been updating Kawaii Shopping very frequently, but, I’d love to change that. c:

So let’s move on with the feature. I’m just going to quickly highlight some of my very favorite shoes Dream Vision offers!

WAH look at those!! @3@They’re frilly and dainty and have a big bow on them. I don’t know how comfortable it is to have a ring around your toe that’s attached to your shoe, but it’s a really unique touch. I am of course partial to the ones available in white and pink.

These are super elegant.Plus they have bows on them! With hearts in the middle of the bows! This is how you take girliness and turn it into elegance.

These are slippers eeeee!!I am always wearing SOME kind of footwear around the house – I just can’t go around barefoot, or even just with socks on! I would totally love to own these, they would make me feel princessy and girlish even when I’m just chillin’ at home.

More super elegant pumps.These get major bonus points for having the heel shaped like a heart!!

Fun furry boots!!My favorite colorway is the pink boot with white fur. These would look awesome with a feminine coat.

These are SO feminine and cute.They have just a bit of a wedge, which I just love. Don’t you love the sweet colors they come in? n_n

Ahhhh more slippers!!FLUFFY BOWS!! 8U I just get really excited about some things, okay??

Did someone ask for massive flowers on their sandals?’Cause we’ve got massive flowers on our sandals.

Massive flower x3 combo

Let’s finish off this feature with these gorgeous things!That floral print looks like something vintage. Extremely ladylike. These are for going on picnics in. I LOVE the minty green colorway.

That’s all for now, but I’ll probably feature Dream Vision’s shoes again in the future, because there are just SO MANY amazing ones.

By the way, if you didn’t notice, you can click any of the images here to be brought straight to the page where you can plop them right into your shopping cart. 😀 None of these shoes are over $30, isn’t that AWESOME?! So go indulge yourselves. 8D

Shop Dream Vision now!

Hey, all!

Man, I have still not gotten myself into the habit of blogging here frequently. I’m working on it!

I spent this past weekend working on SO MUCH STUFF. <3 The commissions and Fiverr gigs have been going great. Keep it up, people! I LOVE doing this stuff for you, and I also don’t mind the contributions going toward putting food on my table.

EXCELLENT PROGRESS ON THE BOUTIQUE FRONT, YOU GUYS. I know it seems like zero progress is happening related to the Boutique, but it’s because all of the pages I’m working on are set to Private since I’m still working out kinks and stuff. Things are coming together really smoothly though and I would LOVE to have the shopping cart up and running on this site before the Summer is up!

This post probably doesn’t mean much of anything to anybody reading this, but I just like to post every once in a while just to keep this place alive. WHEN ALL SETTLES DOWN I cannot wait to start using this blog to post shopping excursions and reviews and talk about clothes and makeup and 8D

Yeah, I really need to work on filling out these posts, since a few of the categories on the Home page still just lead to 404 pages. I AM FAILING MY DUTY AS A BLOGGER. ;^; I’m trying to do better!

Maybe I’ll talk about, like, shoes or something before the week is up.

MAYBE A NEW COMIC

about shoes?

XDcreationz is an Etsy shop owned by my friend! 😀 You’ll also find her selling her cute fleece hats and Steampunk jewelry at some conventions such as Otakon and Katsucon!

She commissioned me to design a logo/mascot for her and this octopus is the result! Collaborating with friends is fun!

You can commission me, too! 8D

Maybe you noticed, but I kind of didn’t post for about a month. XD; So, here’s my explanatory comic.

Things were crazy for a week or so there, but I think I’m happy now. n_n Any-price commissions and Fiverr gigs are helping. A lot.

And I bought a Pinkie Pie! 8D This is the first Friendship is Magic toy I’ve finally allowed myself to indulge, besides the rather cheap McDonald’s toys. I went to the store with the intention of buying Fashion Style Rarity, but found that she’d been replaced with Fashion Style Pinkie Pie, who isn’t my favorite pony but by golly I am ridiculously happy with her.

I will draw something adorable for $5!
(You can also pay whatever amount you like for any kind of art you’d like through my site.)

This one is for Jen. I was ecstatic when her request was for something right in my own interests. A girl with long wavy brown hair in a pink Victorian princess dress with puffy sleeves?! Jen, are you me?!

She also mentioned her other favorite colors are pastel greens and ocean-y colors, and I just HAD to incorporate those because pink + green is one of my favorite color combinations EVER! 8D

Thanks a whole bunch, Jen! And everyone else, don’t be shy to request art from me, too! :3
