This is why I have ALL my dolliehs mailed to me at work and not to my home! Of course I do work at an office where this is possible, which I know not everyone can do.

Q_Q probably wouldn't work at my work. (crappy part-time retail)

I estimate arrival is wednesday and I have the day off at least.

Tried browsing etsy for clothes, but too many things show up when I type "dollfie", any way to narrow this with actual results or reccomend sellers?

I want to find some reasonably priced clothes/hair so she has something to wear if I take her out some place.

I know this is a pricy hobby, but I'm sure I can find her something nice without breaking the bank lol.

So far tried:
Cool Cat (at least she has a swimsuit)
Mimi Woo (nothing atm)
Parabox (oh gawd the prices)
Azone stuff on japanese hobby sites (nothing I want atm and oh gawd the prices)
Nightfall (got a scarf and hoodie at least..)

At the very least a nice pair of pants (I guess I can get a skirt from cool cat if they fit) and cute top.

unfortunately the term "Dollfie" has become a universal generic for BJDs - sort of like everyone calls facial tissue Kleenex even if they are using some other brand I guess. Personally it annoys the hell out of me, but I don't think there is anything I can do about it LOL. I'd say make sure that you do searches for Dollfie Dream specifically - or DDY, DDDynamite, whatever the model you've gotten is.

You could always search by store as well, I just love www.mintoncardinc.com, well and they have affordable clothing, and ship hella fast!
A hobby isn't supposed to leave you wistful, regretful and vaguely disappointed. BJD collecting is as customizable as the dolls themselves. Do whatever pleases you the most, because otherwise, why do it at all? All for the 'Gram Bitches love the 'Gram.

Browsed around nothing that sparks my interest, there was one but I think it's too small.

You could also take a peek at Alice's Collections. I just ran a GO for them (which should be arriving anyday now).

http://www.alicescollections.com/

Or you could try commissioning one of our lovely board members. We have some amazing talent around here as well as on JS.
