Of Bjd Fashion: Doll Clothes from Amazon?

Psst! Don't tell Hikaru. I ordered some bjd clothes, and not in her size.

It all started when I was thinking of getting some shoes for Mirai, the Smart Doll. The official Smart Doll brand shoes are quite expensive, plus they are out of stock of the styles I liked, so that was out. And I could have ordered some from Alice's Collections, again. But, I wanted to think outside the box a little.

So I went with Amazon. Okay, it's more like thinking inside the box.

Now big disclaimer:
Do not buy ball jointed dolls from Amazon. Clothes and accessories are one thing, but dolls, no!
They are going to be recasts (aka fake, fake illegal knock offs/total scam/sad face). The exception is blind box bjds, but that's another story.

Here's a good list of places to buy dolls instead.

Anyway, the box arrived soon after ordering, but I couldn't open it until late at night after I got back from work. So it wasn't so certain other dolls (like Hikaru) wouldn't see it and get upset that I didn't order anything for them, oh definitely not.

I ended up getting a set of clothes instead of just a pair of shoes. The price was about $42 for a complete outfit with shoes and accessories. Awkwardly, the listing for this set disappeared soon after I ordered it, but here's a similar one. 

All the pieces are wrapped in plastic, as expected, they look good so far.

The shoes are white high heeled boots with a decorative buckle. They lace up and have zippers on the back. The pleather is really, really soft. I am a little worried that the softness will make them more prone to scratching and damage. 

The buckle is sewn on nicely, but doesn't really do anything. It's just for show.

The purse is really cute and the chain strap is nice.

It does open with a magnetic clasp.

I love the pink coat. It is so cute and soft, and the matching hat is adorable.

The downside is that the buttons are just for show, there isn't anything to close the coat.

Plus, the buttons are glued on instead of sewn. The set was cheap for a reason.

The sewing is really good though. I still want to add to it, maybe making a cute broach for it or something?

Packed with the coat is this white dress. It has a mock turtle neck and a cute skirt ruffle. The shape of the turtle neck is a little odd, but I still think the dress it cute.

I am loving the ruffle. It peeks out from under the coat for a very sweet look.

The dress closes in back with velcro. It is sewn very securely.

And now the wig. It came wrapped in a net. I found the grey color interesting.

The quality of the wig isn't that great honestly, but I basically think of it as a free bonus for the set. Something fun to play with a little.

It is super long, but it did shed a lot after I unwrapped it. It is also very thin. I think it would have been better if they made it half as long and used the extra length to make the wig thicker, but that's just me.

The whole outfit looks great on Mirai. The fit is a bit baggy, especially around her waist, but that's largely due to her unique measurements. The shoes fit nicely and that was the most important thing.

I was really surprised how cute the wig looks when worn despite the lowish quality, and not just on Mirai. It actually inspired me to get another doll to wear it.

That's right. I bought another 1/3 scale doll just so I could have a grey haired friend for Mirai. And you will meet her really soon.

Look forward to it!
