Lovelyshoes.net Haul & Reviews (pic heavy)

As promised, here is my haul and review of my purchase from Lovely Fashion . When I made my purchase at AsiaFashionWholesale, I became interested in seeing how the quality of wholesale shoes was. There are many wholesale stores that mainly sell clothing and also sell shoes but I found they weighed their items a bit too high and the shipping would turn out to be more than the item cost itself. So I found this site mainly sells shoes but also a wide variety of bags.Lovely Fashion  prices are mainly in the 8-15$ range. The more costly items are the boots and sneakers but most things are fairly priced. .

So first there are some pros and cons of buying from this site, and here are some tips that would make buying easier.

-Shipping is measured in weight, so pay attention to the weight of the shoes or bags. You might think you are paying $10 for a pair of shoes, but in reality are paying $20 because they weigh too much so stick to things under 800 or 700 grams.
-There is no longer a minimum order to buy from Lovely Fashion and they have lowered their shipping cost recently, so now is a good time if you are considering it.
-Size chart is in China Sizes. I am a size 7 in US and their size 38 was perfect for me.
-My least favorite items were those made of this "matte leather" faux-swade material. It looks quite cheap and is not worth the money so try to avoid those. 
-They have many similar styles that are available on sites like Yesstyle but they might not be the same quality since you are paying much less and the product are replicas not the actual thing(EDIT: I checked Yesstyle today and they are selling exactly the same shoes as this wholesaler, I doubt it's any different)
-Don't rely heavily on stock image even though the items do look similar they may not have exact details or color.
- The items will have a strong factory smell that takes about a week to go away!

So in total, I ordered eight pairs of shoes and spent $138 = $78 for total and $59 for shipping which means I paid about $17 bucks for each pair which isn't that bad, I spend way more buying shoes at marshals or at payless and payless has the same quality as this site. I would much more recommend getting a bag or two, a pair of boots or some sneakers to really get your moneys worth. Try and focus on items that might have a style that is difficult to find in your stores.

Family shot:

So first, my order arrived pretty fast. In less than a week I suppose in a big cardboard box. All the shoes were squished together and had a bunch of wrinkles, most went away pretty fast. I could smell the shoes even without opening the box. A very strong factory chemically smell filled my entire room LOL.

Each pair came wrapped in plastic.

1. Silver Sandals Item number : Z-KD588 sliver

4/5 - Beautiful, I loved how these look but my only issue is my left foot kept sliding off the sandal because of the poor craftsman ship on the fabric. I am used to it now, so it isn't so bad as when I first put them on but I still wish the quality was better.

2. Rhinestone bow sandals Item Number : Z-LS-Q-2 black

Actual photo :

3.5/5 - No they did send me the right color, I just couldnt get a stock pic of the black ones. They look nice, they are just like the picture. Except the material is cheap (artificial leather) The light cream color started to peel off with little wear, I just hope the black part doesn't come off. And the fit is a big on my skinny feet. They are comfy but they just look too wide and big on me. I've worn these the most out of all the pairs so I still like them.


3 . Hand painted black/white sneakers Item Number :  M-D-B1012

5/5 - Yes, you are seeing correctly. This is the same brand of shoe that Yesstyle sells for $30-$40 a pair called "HVBAO". They look exactly the same, the quality is the same, they may not be the "real deal" but I can tell no difference and I have bought the authentic ones off Yesstyle for $38. I got these for school, they came with 4 laces to tie them with.

4. Hand painted Pink and yellow sneakers Item number : M-D-B320
Stock photo:

Actual photo :

5/5 - Yes I am aware the girl on my sneakers is missing a mouth, meh.. I won't hold that against them since it isn't a big deal. Everything else looks exact , I like these so much :D

5. Grey matte flats  Item number : Z-HK707 grey
Stock Image :

Actual Image :

2/5 - I borderline hate these. The color is much darker in real life. I don't care much for the ugly ruffly things attached to it. I would not hate these so much if they were just more COMFORTABLE. Easily the most uncomfortable shoes I ever bought. The outer sole is hard as a rock, it's so inflexible. You can also see where it is literally super-glued on to the shoe.

6. Black ankle boots Item Number : Z-NM15-816 black
Stock image:

Actual photo :

4/5  - I do like these, they look cute and they are not far from the actual photo except it came in a total mess. I had to cut the bow strings and fix the strings that wrap around the ankles. It was difficult to get these to look anything like the photo when they came totally smashed and wrinkled. I think getting these in black means it looks dirtier over time, especially since the material they used isn't as nice as it should be.

7. Brown ankle boots Item Number : Z-NM15-816 brown
Stock Image :

Actual photo :

4/5 - These came in better condition than the black ones. Ok, the photography is very tricky in this case . They make the boots look so cute in these(stolen) pictures, its bright , glowy and most of all deceiving. But with all that said, I'd probably still buy these in a different color(beige) because they are comfy, and look darn cute either way.

8. Light beige lace flats Item Number : Z-3CY-20 rice

Actual photo :

5/5 - Looks exactly like the photo, pretty comfy, fits just right. No complaints.
Would I buy from Lovely-shoes again? Yep,just a bit more careful next time :)

I know many people are really into shoes, fill their entire closet with them and are willing to pay top dollar for the perfect pair. I am however, no where near obsessed with my shoes. I have never had more than twenty pairs, and before  this haul I only had about five pairs(that I actually wear). I have never spent over $40 for a pair of shoes. I have special occasion shoes,(which I got at marshalls) and a few pairs of sandals, and now these new shoes I consider my "casual" shoes for school and going out. So until you see me strike it rich I will continue to get my clothes and shoes at wholesalers and discount shops! ;)

And here's a quick FOTD I did with a MAC greasestick and Neo glamour grey circle lenses :D

I can't wait for my new flat iron to get here!
