Labor Day Sales: Kawaii Edition!

August 29, 2025 / lolitaland / Leave a comment

Labor Day is here, which means three-day weekend vibes, end-of-summer nostalgia, and—best of all—amazing deals! Even though NYC is still a mix of humid afternoons and early-fall breezes, I’m already thinking about cozy layers and winter-friendly beauty products to prep for the season ahead. I am sticking to window shopping this time around, but that just means you can snag the finds I’m drooling over. From adorable lolita accessories to add to your wardrobe to crazy deals on circle lenses, here are my favorite Labor Day sales that deserve a spot in your cart:

I really want these items but won’t be purchasing them since I’m holding myself to a budget. But my window shopping wishlist can become your real style and beauty steals! If you purchase any of these, let me know what you think of the products.

The only one I’ve used are the circle lenses from Uniqso – they’ve been my go-to for contact lenses for many years. I’ve always had a great experience with them! Remember to use my code PEONY for 10% off any purchase from Uniqso. They also sell cosplay wigs!!

Happy Labor Day weekend, everyone!

Introducing 42Lolita

June 6, 2024 / lolitaland / Leave a comment

Have you heard of 42Lolita? 42Lolita is the official Lolita shop of 42agent. I’ve been a loyal customer of 42agent since 2013 (back in their Taobaoring days!). You may have seen my blog posts about Taobao shopping (here: post 1, post 2, and post 3). Lots of great Lolita indie brands are on Taobao, and 42Lolita makes it even easier to snag cute clothes and accessories. If you’d like to shop there, use my code XIAOLILICOS for 5% off your order!

The pre-order for this collab between Taobao brand NyaNya and Puella Magi Madoka Magica ended on May 31, but 42lolita reserved some extras for customers who missed the reservation. If you’re a lolita who’s also a fan of this anime, these two OPs are perfect for you!

Don’t miss out if you’re interested in these– right now, only sizes XL and 2XL are still available.

If you’re looking for a staple piece available in a variety of sizes, I found this cute summer lolita blouse. It’s still available in sizes ranging from XS to 2XL, plus there’s a customized size option. The Taobao brand is Miss Cube.

It’s also made from cotton, which I love to wear during hot days!

If you’re interested in upgrading your petticoat to a hoop skirt for the summer, I found this Lolita hoop skirt for only $7.99! It’s a great deal. A few years ago, I got my first hoopskirt, and I love wearing it on really hot days since it keeps the voluminous shape for the skirts, but it lets my legs breathe.

I am pretty sure this hoopskirt is the same one I bought a few years ago through 42agent. Now that they have 42lolita, it’s much easier to shop!

If you’re looking for a cute bag, this Boguta bow bag has been super popular.

It comes in many different colorways. I love the oversized bow design! It also comes with two sets of detachable straps so you can switch it up between the faux leather ruffle straps or the pearl chain straps. You can wear this bag as a backpack, shoulder bag, or handheld bag. It also comes in 3 different sizes!

If you’ve shopped at 42lolita before, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Don’t forget to use my coupon code XIAOLILICOS for 5% off your order! Thanks for reading, and happy shopping. 🙂

Top 5 J-Beauty Products: Haircare Edition

April 16, 2024 / lolitaland / Leave a comment

In today’s post, I’m going to go over my top 5 J-Beauty haircare products! Everything in this post I’ve personally used and consider part of my holy grail list. You can buy any of these from YesStyle – be sure to use my code 3PEARLS for an additional 5% off your order — yes, you can layer this on top of any ongoing sales and discounts! And YesStyle always has sales going on.

Shiseido – Fino Premium Touch Hair Mask – I first discovered this product when I went to Japan in 2023. This hair mask is the holy grail of hair masks. It makes my hair soft, even if the starting point was really rough and crunchy and dry. My hair is damaged from bleaching, and I noticed that this hair mask works even better than Olaplex for restoring softness.

ViCREA – &honey Creamy EX Damage Repair Hair Oil – This hair oil is so rich and nourishing! I love using this before and after I blow dry my hair to protect my hair, plus add additional moisture. It smells just like honey too!

ViCREA – &honey Melty Matomake Stick 4.0 Super Hold – I love using this for my bangs! It helps my bangs stay in place. The easiest way to style your bangs when you don’t have time to use a curling iron or hair roller. The applicator resembles a mascara wand. And it smells like honey!

DARIYA – Momori Peach Moist & Cohesive Hair Cream – This is another product I discovered during my first time traveling to Japan! I use this hair cream on the mid-lengths and ends of my hair after I finish shampooing, and I leave it in my hair when I blow-dry. The cream also doubles as a hand cream, so rub it into your hands too! It smells like peaches.

Mandom – Gatsby Moving Rubber – When I had short hair, this was my holy grail for hair styling! My favorite is the Air Rise Green version. Perfect for defining short layers, adding volume, and making short hair more fluffy. I also use this to style some of my cosplay wigs! It smells like green apple. Spiky Edge Pink is great if you want spiky hair, and Loose Shuffle Orange works well for messy-on-purpose looks.

Have you tried any of these products? I’d love to hear your thoughts! Feel free to ask me any questions you have. If you shop on YesStyle, use my code 3PEARLS for an additional 5% off your order. Happy shopping!
