Sorry for not updating and disappearing for a while, I was busy the past few days since I just graduated from college and I finally got assigned a student for tutoring. ヽ( ★ω★)ノ
This post is going to be a bit different from the usual, because I'm excited to share with you guys my very first sponsored post on this blog (hooray!).
A few days ago, I received a package from Angela, the kind owner of Teacupcastles, an Etsy shop, which specializes in homemade & handmade jewellery and accessories.

I came by Angela's store after reading a post by a fellow blogger that I follow and was interested in her store, as her handmade items were inspired by japanese fashion, fairy tales, The Pretty Reckless, comics and anime.
Out of interest and curiosity of her store, I messaged Angela, and too much to my surprise, Angela quickly replied back! Luckily for me, Angela was more than willing to send me an original piece of her work and sponsor me.
Fortunately for me as well, Angela was really patient with me and kindly answered my questions right away, providing great customer service. ٩(^ᴗ^)۶
Here is the packaging that I received:

After opening the envelope, along with the necklace, I was presented with an adorable and colourful business card.

While communicating with Angela, she allowed me to pick a list of items that I was the most interested in from her store, and in turn, would pick which item matched me the most.
And happily, I'm glad that she chose to let me sponsor the L.O.V.E. necklace, which is adorable and pink, and really matches with my blog (hahaha).

What stood out for me the most of the piece, was the intricate and detailed designs of the floral charm, it showed me how talented Angela is, with her craftsmanship. However, I also really like the detailing of the wording of the love charm, which was a cute touch!
The quality of the necklace was another plus, you can tell how much work Angela puts in for each of her products. (◍•ᴗ•◍)
In addition, not only did Angela send me the necklace, but she also gave me a bonus gift, a heart-patterned pin button.

Here are some additional shots of the necklace with my outfit:
 |
| I love how I can easily match the necklace with my outfit. |
 |
| Despite the floral patterns, the necklace is still easily the main focal point. |
 |
| As previously mentioned, the detailing of the wording of 'love' is incredible. |

Dress & Shoes: Forever 21
Cardigan: American Eagle
Bralette: YesStyle
Belt: Charlotte Russe
What makes the accessories from Teacupcastles so interesting and unique, is that they're one of a kind. You wouldn't be able to get them anywhere else and for the reasonable price, the excellent customer service you receive and the overall quality, I would highly recommend shopping at the store.
Furthermore, there is also an appeal to different fandoms, it's a store where you would be able to find accessories that are inspired by and from Sailor Moon, to Game of Thrones, to Final Fantasy, to Harry Potter, etc.
I want to personally thank Angela for giving me the opportunity to be sponsored and taking a chance of a relatively new blog, that has no experience of sponsorship whatsoever and of course, for letting me review the wonderful necklace.
♡ If you guys ever need the chance to buy adorable and unique accessories, the Etsy store, Teacupcastle is your place to go! ♡
Thanks for reading,
