The shop is finally updated with new pieces (etsy shop too!)! I made these two Spring tops with lace inserts in the middle. The top falls to hip line with a slight flare, like peplum. They are loose fitted and very comfortable!

More is coming to the shop very soon. Since my new sewing machine has arrived, I am super motivated to try different fabrics on my machine. I will write a more detailed review on the industrial machine soon. It is amazing! So fast and powerful. I wish I would have gotten it sooner. For now, here is the picture of my new machine!

Shop Update: Early Fall Pieces

By

Hello everyone, how’s your summer going? It’s been really hot in Japan the past couple of weeks. I don’t mind the heat as compared to the cold. The shop has been updated with many early fall pieces, five of them in total. Check them out here!

本当に毎日暑いですね！とけちゃいます。。　こんな暑い中早めな秋物をショップに追加してみました。こちらで見てみてください☆

Top & Bottom: Lilac mix knit short fingerless mitts, Middle: Lilac mix knit long fingerless mitts

Over the next week, I’ll be adjusting the shipping to a flat rate of $15 for overseas shipment (additional $4 for each additional item). This will apply to all the clothes. For accessories, I will still be shipping in regular international mail unless I receive a request otherwise. I’ve had many lost packages recently using  regular international mails which does not come with tracking or insurance. Although my Shop Policy states that I am not responsible for lost or stolen mails, when a customer contacts me to let me know that she never receive a package, I usually compensate them for it. To avoid the frustration and the waiting time, I decided that all international mails be shipped via EMS (Expedited Mailing Services). It provides a tracking number and insurance up to 20,000 yen (about $230 USD). It is also faster than regular mail. On average, it delivers to the U.S. from Japan within 3-5 days. I apologize for the raise in shipping fee. It is the actual cost, and I am not charging a handling fee. With the Yen’s value remaining high compared to the Dollar it is hard to keep the price down. If you want me to ship it by regular international mail (cost is $7 per item), I will be upon request; however, I cannot be responsible for lost and stolen mails. From now on, the default shipping method will be EMS. Thanks for understanding!

配送と送料についてのお知らせです。今までは日本から海外へのお届けは普通の国際便（航空便）で配送していたのですが、今週から海外にはEMS使用と変更したいと思います。最近何件か立て続けに郵便物の損失が起こってしまって。。。一応Shop Policyとして損失や配達中に盗まれてしまった郵便物の責任は取れませんと書いてあるのですが、実際にお客様から届かないんですけど、と連絡がくるとやはり私が対応しなければいけないのが現状です。なので、今後は海外にはEMSを＄１５の送料で使用します。送料が倍になってしまって（今までは＄７だったので）申し訳ございません。どうぞご理解よろしくお願い致します。

Next week I will be updating a small collection of Harley Davidson series…
