shipped from china

Now that the news is out we can talk about the important stuff.

Packing.

APRIL 14th FOOLS.

We will not be talking about packing because while packing is important right now, it is not exciting important. 

Let's talk about the opposite of packing...buying stuff. More specifically, buying stuff from China. More more specifically, the best/worst idea ever, just ask my dog-chewed wedding dress. 

You think after my wedding dress incident I would have learned. I would have been scarred. I would have been wiser. And honestly, I was, but then I found this pin.

One full day of internet searching later I found the freaking shirt. This shirt was a hashtag necessary shirt so I just had to get it. Necessary! It was under ten dollars on Amazon which means hello, jackpot! All signs were pointing me to this shirt and this shirt to me.

Except it was shipped from China on February 15 with zero tracking information and a expected delivery date from March 12-30. 

Oh. Okay. As soon as I saw all of these things I completely wrote off ever receiving this shirt. All signs were pointing to me never getting this shirt and this shirt never getting to me. When March 30 came and left it took my hopes and dreams for recreating this amazing outfit.

My life was not blessed. Hashtag freaking not blessed. 

BUT THEN GUESS WHAT. GUESS WHAT.

Yes! It was delivered yesterday. No, my mother's dogs did not chew it. Yes, it fits. No, it was not a scam. Yes, I place the sketchiest internet orders. No, I regret nothing. 

And that, my friends, is the important story of how I had another random, sketchy, successful internet order from China. Can't wait to do a hair flip in my rockin' new outfit. 

The End.
