Inactivity Strikes!

Monday 9 August 2010 |

I just can't keep up in the blogosphere right now! I'm not really that busy either so there is no excuse! I recently celebrated my 17th birthday, in which I had my good friend Brendon over for birthday fun and Chinese-style nommies. We played a lot of video games o.o
I also did a cosplay photoshoot with my friend Zoe, in my Remilia Ver.2 cosplay. I had A LOT of fun doing that and playing with different poses. I hope to have her photograph me again in my Cirno cosplay. She's a brilliant photographer and apparently, I'm very photogenic. Here's one of the shots from the shoot.

I love this shot ^^ It shows off my nice new wings.
Based on this pose.

Due to the disappearance of Riku and my mom not wanting me to be lonely, I was given a small bundle of joy called Miu. Here's a photo of her, snapped by Dave:
Sleepy Neko-chan <3

I am also preparing and organising a cosplay picnic meet up for next week! It's going to be so fantastic!!

I've set up a Tumblr account now, which I will post on when I'm not posting on here. Go there for lots of cute and interesting stuffs!

Psst - Check out this Tsubasa-themed giveaway over at Finding Tokyo! Some cute nail stuffs up for grabs, including a bottle of Tsubasa's new Dolly Wink nail polish! =O

Gets + My Summer Playlist

Sunday 1 August 2010 |

Hello! I'm back from my holiday. I forgot to post my hiatus post before I left and my grandmother doesn't have internet in her house! Lame! Actually, it was quite nice to unplug for a while and relax in the beautiful county of Surrey~
But, I did go shopping while I was away. I had some extra cash so I bought lots of lovely goodies!

I love this top! It's so comfy and looks great with shorts or leggings.
I do tend to leave a trail of glitter behind though.

This maxi dress is soooo lovely and long. I plan to wear it underneath a yellow t-shirt with red edging.

These shorts are amazing. I was so thrilled to find a pair in my size! Plus, the rip on the side looks like a kitty cat to me.
These are also quite awesome. So simple but nice and cool as they are linen.

I also bought a pink and white baggy striped top, a yellow crop top with black sailboats and airplanes on it and the top mentioned in this post. I love shopping.

I love music. I love it more than I love fashion. Which is why I'm going to post here my top 5 Songs of the Summer! I strongly suggest you check out each of these amazing artists!

Top 5 Songs of the Summer:

So there you go, some awesome new music for you to listen to or maybe some repeated favourites! I love to sing my heart out when I'm on the road with Dave. It's so much fun! We like to belt out Fireflies by Owl City like mad people. Love it!

I hope everyone is having a fabulous summer! My summer so far has been a small holiday and BIG decisions. But I'm happy with the choices I have finally made.

Today, I am going on a picnic with my family. This is part of our whole new "get active" thingy. (As if blogging isn't exercise enough! Haha!) I thought I'd get a little dressed up for lazing on the grass on a blanket so I did and this is what I came up with!

 I love that nail polish, don't you just LOOOOVE that nail polish?
Rundown: 
Top: Thrifted, originally from H&M

Goodbye, My Sweet Kitten

Wednesday 14 July 2010 |

My sweet, darling cat

Today, I am sad to announce the disappearance of my cat, Riku. We are unsure if he is dead or alive, no one in the area has seen him. We were never bad to him, he was always well fed and looked after and I loved him to pieces. He was my baby and the one thing I knew would always love me, even when no one else did. Sadly, he has left me. I can only hope that he is still among us but living near railway tracks, a large river and main roads has left me with no hope. Maybe I will hear him crying at my window again someday soon.
I hope you will enjoy these photos in his memory.





He loved being the centre of attention and therefore loved the camera.
He was is my world. He will always be my baby and no one will ever replace him.

Good-bye, Riku.

Popteen: August Issue + Thrifting

Thursday 8 July 2010 |

Click here to view scans!

In Popteen's August issue, they feature an interview with the beautiful singer Kana Nishino, the voice behind the amazing song Best Friend. This outfit of hers is absolutely amazing! It has a mori-gal feel to it. It just so happened I found a lacy top like that in Primark today, in the form of a cardigan with an invisible zip. I only wish I'd taken a photo of it! It was so cute!
I also recommend Primark mode-gal finds! There is TONS of cheap (price-wise of course, not cheap-looking!) gal-worthy items in there. As soon as I get my paycheck, I'm going in to stock my wardrobe for the summer!

The art of thrifting - going into a charity store (thrift store) and buying something nice to make into something fabulous! Currently, this is one of my favourite things to do. I love going around all the charity stores with my mom. I've picked up loads of cute stuff from them. I recently bought a pink and white candy striped tank top and a yellow and white summer dress. Both are amazing and in such good condition! Plus, I feel super good afterwards, I've shopped lots and given money to charity. I urge you! Get out there and thrift your heart out!

Sorry for my lack of updates by the way. Again, nothing interesting to say! Plus, I was without internet for almost a week. It was so boring ><;

じゃね~!

Decoden: The Strangely Relaxing Hobby

Saturday 26 June 2010 |

Today was my last day at college. I was kind of sad to leave, since it's been a big part of my life for a while and I met so many great people there. I actually cried a little while walking though the halls for the last time.
But that's not what this post is about!

I've always been fascinated by the world of deco. All the pretty and sparkly phones and handheld games consoles... *u* <3
So today, I grabbed my very boring phone, some glue, tweezers and some glittery bits and just deco'd my afternoon away. It was so relaxing, just sat there with my music on sticking on rhinestone after rhinestone.
After around 4 hours I got to a state of completion. This is the result:

 A very shiny phone.

I had some leftover rhinestones too, as well as a small fairy that I wanted to use on something. So I ended up spending another 2 hours making this:

Crap photo is crap but you get the basic idea.

Over the top of my pink DS Lite, the green didn't look very nice. So, I gave this case to my mom, who loves fairies and shiny things. She was very happy with the surprise! And it looks lovely on her white DS Lite. 
I love decoden so much >w< It's so fun and relaxing. It's great to do on a hot day when you just don't want to do anything. My next project is a new case for my iPod. I want to try and make a picture of my current favourite Touhou character, Cirno, out of rhinestones of different sizes. Time to look for places that sell rhinestones online!

Question for readers! Do you like deco? Do you think it looks nice or just looks tacky? Comment!

Over and out!

Blogging from an iPad

Thursday 24 June 2010 |

I'm actually in the Apple store at the moment. Bet you thought I had an iPad! I've just seen an iPhone 4. I'm in love! That's all for now!!

A small update~

Wednesday 23 June 2010 |

I'm sorry I haven't been very active as of late, I've simply had nothing interesting to write about!
I've been so busy with college and stuff lately. Even now, I'm half preparing to leave for college while writing this post. I can't wait until I finish, which is right after I finish all of my outstanding assignments (It's not much, 5 short tasks but it's actually doing them that's the hard part!).

I'd really like to go on holiday this year, even if just inside England. I need to find a job before I think about doing that sort of stuff though. There is a cosplay holiday thing going on this year, but I won't have the money to go unless I get a job. Well, I have the money to go, just not the money to make 3 days worth of cosplay!

Speaking of cosplay, I plan to do a lot of it this summer. I'm not attending any of the summer conventions so I thought I'd host some meets and picnics this summer. I guess, to make this post a little more interesting, I'll post some of the cosplay I'm planning to do for this rest of this year.

Cirno - Summer Kimono Version

Cirno - Normal Version

Ponyo - Human Version

Tsukasa Hiiragi - Summer Uniform Version

Rin Kagamine - Cendrillon Version

Rin Kagamine  - Normal Version

So there's my cosplay line up. Quite an expensive lot, but somehow I'll do them all.
Time to head off to college now. I'll try and write something interesting next time!

Over and out! ;D

Earphones!

Monday 14 June 2010 |

Due to my recent discovery of being minorly allergic to plastic, I've been forced to indulge in some new earphones. I decided to have a look in Asda, since I was there food shopping anyway. I quickly found my perfect earphones. Comfortable, silicone JVC Gumys. They were on offer for 2 for £10, so I picked up a pair of funky green ones and a pair of white ones, with a special plan in mind for the white ones.

After looking though what bits I had left in my deco boxes, this is what was made out of those white earphones:

Those ponies are from some hairclips I bought that broke.
Recycling!

A close up of one of the earphones.

Cute, huh? I was going to deco them, with really really small rhinestones but I didn't have enough pink ones left! Time to order some more ^^;

That was basically all I wanted to update on this time. I did have an outfit post and a JapFashion post for you, but my mom formatted my camera and I can't find the graphics for the JapFashion post. Sooooo, you'll just have to wait.

I do have this, however, which I really really want!

I saw this walking past Peacocks the other day! I love it!!!
I think I remember seeing something like this in Popteen as well. 
Or some other JapFashion Mag.

Anyway, that's all for today!

Over and out! ;D

Haircut desu!

Saturday 12 June 2010 |

That's right! I got my hair cut again! I decided to go with something short and sweet for the summer (try saying that 5 times fast!). Take a look!

My fan is covering a horrid spot on my chin. 
*stressed* =w=

But yea, I've had tons of compliments on it. I'm planning to dye it dark purple when the time for re-dying it comes around <3 I had that colour last summer and everyone thought it was awesome. 

I went to the doctors the other day, because for the past week or so I've had an infection in my left ear. I thought it was nothing at first but I started to describe another problem I was having. I like to wear plastic jewelry. Bead bracelets, chunky colourful bangles, the works. But everytime I wear them, I come up in a red and very itchy rash. It turns out that the two problems are linked. Just like any other normal person, I love listening to music. The easiest way for me to do that is through some plastic, in-ear headphones. Turns out, I'm allergic to plastic. The plastic earphones caused an allergic reaction which got infected. Solution? New headphones. I got some nice JVC gel coated ones. One in green and one in white. (The white ones I'm going to deco ^^)
Isn't plastic a weird thing to be allergic to? I nearly laughed when my doctor told me!

Question for you this time! What are you allergic to?
Also, did you laugh? 

Over and out! ;D

...Don't you?


Last weekend was London MCM Expo! I had a fantastic time, despite only going for the Saturday. There I met up with my best friend Robbie, who brought his two friends PJ and Wesley, and I also had Dave with me too (who ran off chasing cosplayers with his big camera most of the day, but I didn't mind). So, some photos!

A few of us from the Touhou group. 
(Left to right: Robbie as Lyrica Prismriver, Me as Remilia Scarlet, Reimu Hakurei, Youmu Konpaku and Wesley as Remilia Scarlet. I can't remember where I got the image from ><;)

My favourite photo of me, even though it is over exposed ^^;
I'm hugging my new Reimu and Miku plushies!!
Photo by Robbie

Caramelldansen time! My hat was falling off and it was raining.
This one was taken by Dave

This is the Soundcase, which Robbie made. 
Each of those circles are lights, which are really bright and work as a VU meter for the music.
The music comes out of two speakers on the inside of the suitcase. The whole thing can be plugged into any device with a headphone input on it. It's powered by a motorcycle battery.

A sneaky photo of me and Robbie taken by Wesley. 
We were on the way to Trocadero in Piccadilly Circus to visit the arcade~

Yea, so we went and bought stuff, hung outside and got rained on, went to my friend Saffie's hotel room in the Ibis, then took the tube to Troc. I bought the two plushies, Reimu and Miku and two Touhou-based doujinshis. PJ brought me a Rin Kagamine petite nendoroid from a convention he went to where he lives (Him and Wesley are Dutch). I was a little moody when we got to Troc, because my feet were killing me (they were actually bleeding when I got home from my 4 inch Bodyline heels) but I still managed to have a go on the DDR machine and play against Robbie on Percussion Master (One of my favourite parts of the whole day!). And after it all, I said a sad goodbye to Robbie, PJ, Wesley, Saffie and her boyfriend Anton and headed back to Waterloo with Dave. ;w; I miss them all so much already.

Also, I wanted to ask. How many of you own an iPod Touch or iPhone? I own an iPod Touch 2g and was thinking of doing some app reviews on cute and fun apps! I came across quite a few today and am itching to tell someone about them!! Let me know by commenting~

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and, for those of us in school or college, a lovely half term!

Over and out! ;D

Coming up next: Cute findings in Fashionland and possible app reviews!  

Trendy Gals

Thursday 27 May 2010 |

Okay, one of my favourite blogs is Mitsu's blog over at Universal Doll. I love it for checking out the latest Gal Fashion trends. One of the trends I am l-o-v-e-ing is Tie-Dye Maxi Dresses. If there is one thing that is super for the summer, it's maxi dresses. My mom and I (my mother is totally cool, she dresses like me half of the time, totally trendy.) practically lived in ours last summer. Now, the UK is apparently in for a scorcher this year. Bad news to me and my friend Robbie, because we are both sensitive to the heat. It sucks! I've got to have an electric fan glued to my face the whole summer! Haha!
Anyway, I was looking in the high street shops the other day when I came across some totally cute dresses in New Look. They are totally following the trend with these fantastic dresses.

I'm a total sucker for anything pink. Bet you couldn't tell.
This lovely dress is only £30 and comes in pink, black and olive green.


I love this so much. I saw it on someone today and I just wanted it even more.
£35, which isn't bad really.


And I'll tell you something. I HATE TK MAXX. But I love this scarf and might actually go hunting for one.
TK MAXX, £5.99


Again, love this! Reminds me of the whole ethnic trend that is so in right now.
TK MAXX, £16.99

Also, I never realized that nail polish sticks to shoes really well. I painted the bows on my pink Bodyline lolita shoes for my cosplay. I painted them red =D They look really cute now.

Question for you all. Do you follow trends or try and set them? Me? I like to mix and match styles and try and create the next big thing. I am a fashion designer after all. Haha!
Also, I've decided to take a gap year for this coming academic year. I'm gunna try and get a job, get my license and live a little. I'm hoping to have a car before Christmas, so I can meet up with my fabulous friends for gift exchanging. Awesome, right? 

Anyway, last post until next week. Have a fabulous weekend and I'll post lots of pictures for you all to see after MCM Expo.

Over and out! ;D

Who's been a bad blogger?

Wednesday 26 May 2010 |

I have! I'm so super sorry for not posting in a few days. My internet got cut off because the bill wasn't paid D=
In my absence, I've become addicted to Sex and the City. I'm taking my mom to see the new movie next Wednesday so I thought I'd watch a bit to catch up on the story. And I can't stop watching.
I can't get over how close MCM Expo is now. I'm so super excited and my nails look so sexy painted red for my cosplay. Mmm <3
I got a letter from a college I applied to today. You may remember from this post that I already got accepted at a college but I got told I'd have to do an art course definately in order to one day do fashion design. So, I applied for another course at another college to see if I could get in. Well, as I mentioned, I got a letter from them. Unfortunately, it was to reject me from the college. It said that they had a large amount of applicants to the college and that I wasn't able to attend this year.
Now, I'm faced with a decision. I've looked at all of the other colleges in the area and there are no other courses that I'm interested in doing. Do I go and do the art course? Or do I take a gap year, get a job and apply again next year? I'd like to know what you would do! Since you guys are so awesome <3

Also, I just came across the giveaway over at "Moments like Diamonds" called the "Bad Blogger" giveaway. How fitting for this post?! So click over and join in! Awesome! The prizes are so super cute. I want them! >w<

That's me off. Enjoy the rest of your week and your weekend!

光を〜

Sunday 23 May 2010 |

It's been so warm and sunny in the land of tea and crumpets these past few days! I hope my lovely British readers have been out in the sun like I have.
Yesterday I went out with my good friend Dave and ended up sitting in a park for nearly 3 hours just chatting and we bumped into my friends Zoe and Mark. It was lovely. We were discussing how I say some words differently because of my slight American accent. It ended up in us just making lots of silly noises. I also practiced my Japanese by attempting to read a copy of Newtype magazine. I could actually read some of it! やった!
I'm slowly getting used to using what Japanese I do know around my home, for more practice. For those who want to know, I'm self-learning Japanese at the moment, using a Nintendo DS software called "My Japanese Coach". It's actually very helpful! It teaches you how to form sentences and all the hiragana and katakana characters. With those, you can write pretty much any Japanese word and if you do it on a computer, normally it will correct it with the correct kanji. Take the word "hikari" for example, which means "light". Writing it in romaji would be "hikari", in hiragana it would be "ひかり", but the kanji for it is "光". Confusing, yet simple.
I also use a phrase book along side the DS software and I made some flash cards with all of the hiragana and katakana characters on them, for daily practice.
I find it easier to listen to Japanese than to read it. I'm currently listening to drama CDs, to aid my learning. I managed to pick up the CDs to one of my favourite anime called "Clannad". It's so nice but it's really sad at some points!
Anyway, I'm rambling, haha.
I hope you are all having a lovely weekend! Get out in that sunshine!!

Over and out! ;D

But still it's going really well!

And the back, with a giant butt eating bow. The bow can be detached on one side to access the zip.
Nifty, eh?

The wig and hat! Please excuse my flumpy makeup-less face.
You may remember the wig from this post.

I'll be working on the shirt today. Hopefully to completion! Then I'll update with lovely pictures for you all.

All Rolled Into One

Thursday 15 April 2010 |

Ok, I thought I'd just post some of the fun things that have happened lately.

I got my wig for my Remilia cosplay in the post the other day! I ordered it from a seller on eBay called WigFever and I must say, their service is amazing. I was really quite scared about ordering from them, especially because I couldn't find any reviews on the internet about them, but their feedback seemed good and the wig was cheap so I gave it a go. It is well worth the £16 I paid for it. The colour is amazing (the strands are a mix between lavender and silver), it's incredibly soft and thick, it's perfect! Here's a picture of me in the uncut and unstyled wig:

I can't say I much like the colour on me, but it's a lovely wig.

I also went to stay at my very good friend Robbie's house for a few days! I had such a good time and his family (and him, himself) are very very sweet people. I just can't wait to visit again!
He's created a "soundcase", which is a suitcase containing 2 hifi speakers, a lot of wires and some other random computery bits. On the outside of the case is volume control, inputs for microphones, a switch to turn it on and off and 8 light bulbs. The lights flash in time with the music! How cool is that? Well, we took this soundcase to a canal close to him for a picnic, played some awesome music and did a random Caramelldansen. It was so much fun! We're planning to take this to the London MCM Expo in May as well! Yay! We also went to the arcade, took random photos, played Project Diva (which, for my first time I was surprisingly good at), sat in his garden (his neighbour had a sakura tree so we sat near it like the Japanese do for hanami - flower viewing - and it was lovely) and did other random stuffs :3


Pretty sakura~

Um yea, that pretty much the only things of interest at the moment. I'm off now to get some rest.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

Quick question: Do you enjoy my more personal posts? I'd love to hear your feedback.
And don't forget to enter my giveaway! For more details, click here. Ends the 1st of May!

Homemade Purikura + Giveaway Time!!

Tuesday 6 April 2010 |

Hello all you lovely people! And hello to my new readers too! *waves*
I don't know about you guys but I L.O.V.E Purikura! I found the site Puricute through Google and tried it. It was so much fun!!! (My username on there is Cheeeen, friend me if you like!) I haven't saved any of my photos on there yet though. Chuu~
As I was also looking around on Purikura stuff, I found this lovely set of Photoshop brushes that even work in CS4! Awesome! So I played around with it and this is the result!

Sparkly *u*
Chuu~ ! >w<
And the Japanese text at the top that you can hardly see says "daisuki".

Kawaii, ne? You should all try it if you have Photoshop! I use my graphics tablet too.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!
It's the moment you've all been waiting for!
IT'S GIVEAWAY TIME!!

To welcome my new readers and mark my almost 20 followers, I'm going to hold a giveaway!
Up for grabs is:

- A Kawaii Bear headband in "Sunshine Yellow"
- A sheet of heart shaped, self adhesive rhinestones in Pink, Violet and Light Blue.
- A decorative nail kit, which can be used for deco-ing your electronic devices too!
- And 1 Secret Item!

Now, winning is the tricky part. I want to change the name of this blog, because it's not all about lolita anymore. So, dear followers, you seem to know my blog best so I want you to choose a fitting name for it! Judging will be done by me and a friend of mine, so be creative!
So, for your chance to win please comment on this post with your name, email address, 1 link to a repost (can be on your blog, twitter, facebook etc.) and the name you think would suit this blog.
I had a question about multiple names so I'll just throw this in: You may give a few names that you'd like but it will only count as 1 entry! Multiple names don't count for extra entries! Gomen~ !
Oh and I almost forgot!
The closing date of this giveaway is:
Saturday, 1st May 2010 at 1pm GMT

Good luck dear followers!
