I found floraldays while I was going through my annual browse of storenvy and let me just say I feel in love at the top of a hat, the products in this store are absolutely gorgeous and not to the prices of those products are affordable too! I couldn’t believe how gorgeous a wide variety of their things are and there is just so much I have bookmarked to hopefully get my hands on one day or another when I get the chance and money. In particular out of all of their pieces I definitely fell head over heels with this Pastel Baby Top, the colours all work together well and have a cutesy summery look that I’m going to have heaps of fun messing around with for sure. Floral days offer products ranging in an impressive amount of categories from cosmetics to apparel, to cosplay, and accessories and even stationary! You’ll definitely find something for yourself here if you’re interested in asian fashion so I highly recommend this to anybody look for a few cute, affordable and high quality items to be in their possession (-:<
Shipping had taken about 3 weeks to get to Australia, Kai had been nice enough to wake me up with the parcel under my nose and I couldn’t have been happier to have received it in one piece! Floraldays offers free international shipping so that most certainly makes this a very highly recommended store already, communication was quick and straightforward and not to mention the lovely store manager was as friendly and as helpful as you could ever wish for!
The top arrived in a standard weather proof sleeve which effectively protected the garment from any extreme weathers. The top itself also came in additional packaging to further protect it from exterior influences and reduced any risk of moisture damaging the product. The garment had been neatly folded inside however me in my marginally delirious state at the time had kind of ruined the way it had originally came out of the packaging.
The fit on this is spectacular, it stretches to fit my bust like a glove and still hangs quite loose around the rib area to affectively create the intended cropped style of the top. The material while being extremely stretchy is potentially one of the softest things I’ve owned in my life, it’s light but not too light and feels absolutely heavenly when being worn. Honestly there aren’t enough accurate words in the English language to describe how soft this piece is. It most definitely is one of the most comfortable shirts I own and I’m honestly hoping the quality of the material nor the texture changes very much after going through the washing machine. The colours as you can see are most dominantly pink, white and blue, which is quite a change from my usual pieces which are usually much more subdued in tones and chosen pigments for prints and base materials. I absolutely adore the checkered material which is a change for sure to my usually solid colour bases for t-shirts. It’s used as the backing to the foreground to Japanese lettering with a smaller print of ‘baby’ in english alongside what I imagine to be cola drinks and spiders. Perhaps this is one of the most different pieces in my wardrobe currently and I absolutely love every inch of it, usually I’m a bit eh on busy designs but the layout of this is balanced and I really cannot love this much more than I already do. It’s going to be heaps of fun to mess around with this piece while I’m on holiday in Australia and I’m really looking forward to wear this when it’s weather appropriate! It’s a gorgeous garment which is most definitely going to be used during the summer and spring to create a light, fun and cutesy outfit when I get the chance. High waisted trousers and skirts are mainly going to be the types of pieces I will default to wearing with this but it’s going to be a lot of fun to mess around with different combinations in regards to length,s accessorises and what colours I use to bring out certain tones and details.
The sewing and hemming on this cannot get much better, everything is professionally sewn together and holds tight much more than I had initially expected. The quality of this truly is divine and I have noticed no flaws whatsoever in the production of this piece. The neckline scoops down to an appropriate level and due to the fact the material as a whole does have give and stretches a fair bit means that this piece will be able to fit a wide variety of body types and sizes however I am not entirely certain of how far it really goes so it may be for the best to inquire about the sizing before purchasing. I’m a small to medium usually so that might give you some idea about that. The openings for arms and necklines are accommodating to most sizes and I found it all fit me perfectly without any real issues getting it on or off etc etc. I’m honestly in complete and utter awe at the quality of this beautiful wee garment, the material, the print itself as well as the quality of the fabric are all absolutely flawless.

How it looks on:
Overall I give this a 10/10 no questions asked. I no doubt truly believe Floraldays performs with only the highest quality with their products as well as with their shipping and customer services. I could not be happier with the apparel I have received from their store, from start to finish my experience has been nothing but wonderful and I really can’t ask for anything more from them to improve on. This is a very professional store, run by one of the sweetest people I’ve come into contact with and I highly recommend Floraldays to anybody looking for a storenvy shop with gorgeous asian fashion as affordable prices with additional free shipping! This piece is going to be used to death this summer and I’m trying to get the wheels in my head shipping as fast as possible to fully utilise this to it’s maximum potential and trust me oh my gosh I have a wide number of ideas already that I can’t wait to mess around with in the future.
Personally a few of my favourite pieces you can find in their sailor/sailor moon section (you should definitely give that all a wee looksie) Which most people should know by now I am weak at the knees for sailor moon and sailor moon apparel so there’s a lot I would probably kill a man for. They also have a large number of wigs I’m completely smitten for as well as cosmetics from companies I have had the pleasure of using before and can assure you they work flawlessly, smell and some of the lip centric ones even taste fantastic.
Floraldays has been an absolute delight to go into cooperation with and I cannot be more grateful for their generosity nor their skill in regards to this product. I’m so, so, so happy with everything I’ve experienced with this fantastic opportunity. If you have any questions I will happily reply to them through my askbox (no fanmails please) or even better you can go straight to the source and I assure you, you will receive a very quick reply from the staff running the store.
