Accessory time!

It's friday! And so another week of school has come to an end, gonna celebrate that by making Jack and Coke drinks once my bf gets home, if he manage to get home before 10pm today… Seriously the japanese working days REALLY are too long, no wonder people work them selves to death..

Today I went on a hunt for cheap accessories, I don't buy stuff like earrings or bracelets very often so sometimes it's fun to go on a hunt. Went to Shibuya 109 'cause you can actually find nice priced accessories there. So this is what I ended up with~



The necklace and bracelet is CECIL McBEE and the earrings are just some random brand. Now since the yen is so cheap it's like shopping at H&M haha. I really love the necklace and it seems the blue one was the last on in the shop so I was lucky!

Then I came across this coat, and I just totally fell in love, it's not often it happens but this time I just couldn't stop myself from buying it even though I don't really need another jacket, or maybe I do since I seem to have some sort of allergy to my autumn one :/ The mirror is really dusty, sorry ><



The only thing that is a little bit irritating is that there is nothing holding the belt in place, so when you put it on you have to manage to keep the coat closed (there's no buttons either) while you put on and tie the belt, it will take some practice^^; The brand is DaTuRa, it's my first time buying anything from them since their clothes are a bit over my budget. This time the coat was on time sale though so this was probably a one time purchase haha.

And on sunday it's first Advent, which means I'm gonna christmas decorate at home! Finally ^___^
I know my bf doesn't really care for christmas stuff since it's not a big deal in japanese families but at least I'm enjoying it to the fullest. And we're gonna buy a chocolate calendar haha.

Until next time, take care!

A dolled up blog!

New design on the blog~ Yes, I finally managed to make it look more appealing, and no I have not made the design, I found the blog of a very talented person who used to make these, sadly she has quit now  http://itkupilli-cutencool.blogspot.jp

But anyhow, I've been thinking for a long time about what direction this blog should take. There's really not that much going on around me and several times I've been thinking if I should start write more about fashion and styling instead, kind of like an inspirational blog. And yes, I've decided to go with the latter. Of course I'll write about other stuff as well but I feel I need to have a theme for this blog if I'm gonna be motivated to write in it. I would like to be able to update it every one or two weeks, but we'll see.

Right now I'm sitting around waiting for an important letter to be delivered since I of course missed the delivery yesterday -__- I hate having to wait for these things since I can't go anywhere. But once I get that letter I can finally send in all papers to the technical college! Like, FINALLY, all this paperwork have been stressing me out so much, and I still can't relax since I don't know if I can get study support for this school, which means if I can't get that I won't have the proper aid to enter this school, and it's totally up to a special study council in my country to approve this school, scary…

Also I went to Sea Paradise in Hakkejima this past saturday, it was so much fun! I went there with my bf and a friend of ours so the company was great, it was the first time in at least 4 years that I rode a roller coaster, and it was the biggest one I had tried yet, think I felt like I was gonna die at least 3 times during that ride haha. I don't really like roller coasters so I don't know why I always end up riding them… Anyhow I'm gonna post pics later!

I don't know why against my better knowing I always end up buying this cheap crappy make up, just because it's CHEAP. So Last night I ordered this mascara from Rakuten, Lancome Doll Eyes.

I've heard good things about it so I hope I will like it! Also gonna get myself a new eye liner since my current one stays on for about 30min...


And yay finally the letter arrived ^___^ Time to get down to business with paper work!

Take care!

Me and fashion, the little doll who once again became a doll

I never really talk about fashion with my friends, mostly because, well, pretty much non of my closer friends have any interest in it. Sometimes it gets a bit lonely I must admit, when you can't really share one of your biggest passions. It's not like I haven't tried find people with an interest, is more like those people I HAVE found I pretty much don't have anything else in common with. I mostly always stand out as the odd one in many of my group of friends, my personality do not match my outside, at all. And neither is there any reason why it should, why couldn't a girl wearing cute clothes be a big fan of metal and loves going crazy at those concerts? But we do judge after the outside at first sight after all and I guess that's why at first I always end up in groups that I find myself not really being comfortable in, because people see my appearance and befriends me based on what I look like. Actually it's hard to explain so I guess I should leave it at that haha.

Well I have changed styles like a roller coaster ever since my child hood, like I guess most people have. When I was 3 or 4 years old I had really long curly golden hair (actually I had that until I turned 8) and my mom just loved it so she always dressed me up as a little doll, and I always felt like I was uncomfortable. So when I started school and was old enough to decide for myself what kind of clothes I liked I started to dress like a boy, actually in many cases buying clothes from the boys section in the cloth shops. It wasn't only because I thought they looked cooler but because they could withstand more rough playing. I was always playing with boys as a child, and they were not inside playing with dolls.
When I started the swedish equivalent of junior high I did drop some of the boyishness and started to dress kind of feminine, however at my last year I really started to like listening to rock and metal, and so I once again started do drop the more feminine style in favor of trashed jeans, black shirts, studs and long wild hair. And that was the style I kept all through high school. But during my high school years I had started listening a lot to japanese music, and then mostly the bands who dress visual, visual kei. And so a while after I had graduated high school my new passion was to dress like visual, feminine looking asian men. Nooo, it doesn't sound confusing at all, does it? So I had short multicolored hair, LOTS of piercings and very visual clothing. And it was during this period that I found most of the people who I today love as if they were my family, even though most of us have dropped the visual style now haha.
However preferences changes and as I got older I started to feel uncomfortable in the visual style, I just felt like I couldn't really feel like a woman while dressing like that, or rather it didn't feel like me anymore. So then started my transition into looking like a very feminine girl, with a lot of drop backs to the boyish looks thanks to me feeling insecure about my new style. So in the end the doll once again became a doll.

And not really that anyone care but since this was a post about fashion I though I should post my winter closet, that I must say I'm super duper happy with <3









Also got myself two pair of packages of fake nails, since it's my bf's sisters wedding tomorrow I though I'd try to at least get my horrible nails to look decent -__- Haven't decided which ones to wear yet!



Also found a really cheap bracelet at Shibya 109, so cute!!

Well that was all for this time, have a feeling I might write more about fashion from now on, or maybe not, time will tell!
