Oraora!

 

I’m not supposed to be blogging right now as I’m in the middle of doing uni work, but I’ve just got told that I’m going to have a (yet again) really early shift at work tomorrow so I might as well do it now rather than in the evening where I stay up late just to get everything right OTL

Lately I’ve been really into the oraora/96gal/tsuyome scene, and even though I don’t have a heavy tan I still admire the dramatic hair and makeup! So I wanted to try out oraora again, and the main reason being was that I received my new Listen Flavour hoodie (which is now one of my favourite items of clothing). I needed to have a bit of “me” time anyway because of being overloaded with shifts & uni work.

 

 

full shot of my outfit~

 

I’m wearing my deliciously-awesome new thigh high boots that Stef bought me from my birthday. Unfortunately when I started walking I realised that the top “flapped about” a bit ;_; Damn. Sucks so much D: Going to try and find a way to stop that from happening but for now it’s only good for photos… Never felt so bad in my life ;_; ’cause THEY ARE SO PRETTY D:

My eyemake; still settling for the gold/black look… Oh well!

Wearing my new lens too ;D Going to be posting up a review soon!

So keep an eye out for it! ;D

 

This looks was… Different, to what I normally do. I normally go for the cute/elegant appearance but this time it was totally badass and rebellious. When I walked to work to get some stuff (as I work in a lil’ supermarket) one of my work colleagues didn’t know it was me! He was just chatting away over the little stall to me and then when I walked out to buy the stuff he was like, “Whao I didn’t recognise you there!” But yeah 😛 I really do like this look and shall definitely be doing it again!

EURGH SORRY FOR THE PHOTOSPAM OF MY FACE *shot*

Last question of the day before I go: What time is it where you’re at? I love seeing how people all over the world read my blog, and the time difference between us! Right now it’s 14.55 for me ^^

Adios, amigos! Gotta’ get packing for tomorrow and carry on doing uni work. Love you all!

 

Outfit Post: Back in London!

Once again I have split this into two posts – a main post and an outfit one – because I felt I had too many photos for just one D:

I’m beginning to love this makeup style! Think it really lengthens my eyes~ I’ve been trying to experiment with different make techniques, but I found that I always have done this one throughout my “gal” life…

LOLOLOL please ignore the lil’ shiny thing on brow… Idk what it is or how it got there! 😛

Looking oh-so-mysterious into the distance.. Ish.

My coord! I was originally gonna’ wear my gladiator shoes with no socks but it was a 

lot colder than I expected >< Damn British weather!



Before I go, what would you like to see on my blog? Is there a particular style of gal that you would like to see me try? I’m open to ideas! ^^

Feeling like a princess

Okay so one of my friends Tobi suggested that I should try out Hime Gyaru, and I decided to give it a go! It’s not normally the type of style I would go for but I was interested in it a couple of months back. I just love how princessy and elegant they were… But it was just too much for me. I don’t think I’d cope with all of the frills and bows and pretty things.

But now that I’m not going to commit myself to any kind of style I think I might try out some not just rokku all the time, but like oraora, hime, onee, mode… It’s going to be exciting! And then hopefully I can develop my own style. I’m going to do more research into each substyle to gather loads of pictures for my tumblr so that I could easily find some inspiration.

Outfit Post: Day Out with Charli

I decided to split this into two posts as it would be too long otherwise D:

Like I said in my previous post, I went to London to meet the lovely Charli! I had an awesome time, and loads of fun <333

Here’s some close-ups of my outfit and make for that day ^^

My eye make! Please excuse the stray eyelash on cheek… Didn’t realise until now D:

I tried something new(ish) this time by doing half of the liner on my waterline, and the other just below

to maximise my eye shape. 

Blouse and vest from New Look, necklace from eBay, earrings from Primark, 

shorts from Reveal and shoes from Dorothy Perkins.

Now that I look back, this outfits leans more on the mode side than the onee… Oh wells! 😛

Guess that’s all for now! Think I might break down the posts into two like this if I’m taking loads of pictures at events and what not… >_>

Uni Meal

Hello again!
Sorry I haven’t updated in a while… Haven’t really been feeling inspired to write a blog post OTL.
But anyways, seeing as I’m so behind in things I thought I’d make a quick post of my meal with uni people~ It was during the really hot summer days (although now it’s raining, again ;_;) and I decided to wear my new MA*RS dress for the occasion! I’ve been slowly building up my brand wardrobe tehe~

Unfortunately the day before I had obtained a collection of blisters all over my feet from my new shoes, so I wasn’t able to wear heels and had to wear OTK socks so that people won’t realise that I had plasters all over ;_; So I wasn’t feeling quite as great about the meal as I should’ve done ><

The Warmth of the Sun

After having my nap when I returned from Brighton my landlord was hosting a barbecue and invited me, so I just quickly slapped on my lens and some makeup as his friends were already there and I didn’t want to be rude in not saying hi.
I wanted to do like rows that I see on some oraora gals and really liked this tutorial on Rii’s blog (which you can see here) so decided to just watch the part where she did the rows as my hair was already wavy. I might actually attempt to do it properly next time because I really liked how she did some flicks as well.

So onto the photos!

Argh ignore the glue it went everywhere D:

Top from West One, shorts from Reveal, necklace & bracelet from eBay, 

earrings from Primark, shoes from New Look!

Outfit Post: Hastings with Stef! // 3月24日 //

Pale neck is pale OTL

This weekend my boyfriend came to visit me >\\< he arrived on Thursday late afternoon~

We did lots of stuff over the weekend! We went around town on Friday to do a lil’ bit of shopping (on my part), Saturday we went to Hastings and Sunday we are gonna go to Wagamama! And because we’ve done so much I’m gonna split this weekend into a couple of posts ^^

So this was my look and outfit for Hastings! I wanted to try a similar kind of eye makeup to Mao Miyashita ’cause I love how dramatic it is *_*

Her eyes are so round and pretty! <3

This was my version <3 Wearing Jewerich no.2 & Princess Eye! ^^

DreamV top, Reveal shorts & Dorothy Perkins shoes. Jewellery from random stores. 

This was me near to the end of the day~ So most of my makeup has gone off ;_;

So I’ll see ya’ in the next post! :3

Blog Anniversary & Interview // 3月17日 //

My friend interviewed me yesterday about online identities and Gyaru >///< I felt so special ’cause she chose me to be her case study~ So I decided to doll up for it! At first I didn’t know what to do with my hair so I just straightened it ’cause I’m a lazy bum my hair skills aren’t great ;_; I wanted to wear my new top that I bought from the uber-amazing Monica Tang a few days ago *_*


My make~ I wanted to wear my lens in this time! :3

D.I.A top, reveal shorts, DIY belt, socks from Peacocks and shoes from

Dorothy Perkins. 



Also… I’VE BEEN BLOGGING FOR OVER A YEAR.

I totally didn’t realise! I knew I’ve been blogging around this time but I completely forgot about it ;_;

But yes, I’ve been on this blog for over a year now! <3

My first post was 10th March 2011 and this was my first picture:

How much I’ve changed o_O It’s so crazy… Don’t really like the sweet and casual style anymore lololol. I go for the more dramatic and dark stuff now~ And I think it suits me a lot more ^^ I feel kinda’ lazy doing light makeup OTL.

So I’d like to thank you guys for your undying support, comments, follow… Thank you so much ;_; <3 You guys mean the world to me <3 I couldn’t have made it this far without you ! <3

That’s all for now~

Outfit Post: Rokku Britannia

So for Wednesday I wanted to go for a more Gyaru rokku look~ I bought a new sweater – which I LOVE – from Primark and worked my coord around that. 

Kudos to Bloomzy & Marie for helping me create this coord~

Primark pink top, Primark UK sweater, Claire’s choker, 

BHS necklace, Reveal shorts & belt, leggings from 

a random shop, and Brantano heels.

Before you ask, I was in my sister’s room so no I am not crazy about Justin Beiber D:

Eurgh, my lashes haven’t arrived yet so I’m still wearing the really shitty ones D: 

MEH SEXY LEGS!!!!!!!

Eherm, anyways.

Any questions? 
I’m wanting to do some more discussions post, so please, ask away! ^^ Just tell me what topic yoou wanna explore more in, and I’ll do my research and get it all done for ya’ 😀

♥ Trip to Brum ♥

Omigawsh I’m so so so sorry because this post is extremely late *hides away in shame*. Damn I really need to catch up with all of my posts o_e

But anyways, last Wednesday le boyf and I went to meet Amelie and Eri! It really was a last minute decision, as I messaged Amelie the night before saying that I wanna meet her and then we decided on meeting the next day! Meeting Eri was a bonus, ’cause she’s so lovely to talk to! ^3^

Soooo I was up until 1am trying to think of an outfit to wear and what makeup to do. I was inspired by the likes of Monica Tang with this outfit, and it was my first time wearing my new acid washed jeans! I now am in love with them <3 They make every outfit look more exciting ^^

So all in all, I really really like Onee gal! ^^

New Look vest top, New Look sweater,

Reveal jeans, Brantano heels, Muse necklace,

Claire’s earrings. 

So we all met around 1pm or something and then headed into the town. I DIDN’T BUY A SINGLE THING. Well, apart from a drink and some munchies from Mcdonalds that is 😛 It’s ’cause I really need to save up, especially now because I’ll be going down to Kent where it is uber expensive e_e Then we went around this Candy store and the people who worked there were wearing tops saying “Keep Calm and Candy On” as the shop was targeted by rioters ;__; Then we just had a lil’ walk around… And then stayed at a park before we all headed off home! ^^

Amelie with her cute lil’ mirror deco’d by Eri! Marie is her favourite character, and the decoing was amaazing! Eri is so good at it <3 It makes me wanna wish that I had those kinda skills lololol

And this is Eri! Her dress is SO PRETTY! 

And then there’s me and the beautiful boyf <3

SOME MORE PICCEHS OF MEH! >:]

 

♥ Outfit Post: Floral Dreams ♥

Miss Selfridge dress, Forever 21 belt, Primark satchel, New Look sandals.

I have some outfit posts of the ones I wore on holiday. Tbh I would’ve preferred wearing this outfit with cream OTK socks and high heels but it was too hot for that ;___;

I know that I’ve worn this outfit before, but I’m going to post a lil’ outfit post of it anyways 🙂 I wore this outfit last time here  ♥

J’ai beaucoup d’images de mes tenues que j’ai porté pendant mes vacances. Je préfère porter les chaussettes clairs et les chaussures (high heeled ?) mais c’était très chaud pour ca ;__ ; 

Je sais que j’ai déjà porter ce tenue ici mais c’est un de mes favoris ^^ 

♥ I can’t believe it; it actually feels like summer?! ♥

Hey gals! How’re you all today? ^^

Yesterday it was boiling. Seriously, I was so hot that I had to change my outfit because of it!
After International Gyaru Day my boyf slept round mine with my sis and one of my best friends, and we had lots of fun! (Well, I’m sure my sis and friend did anyways ;D) We drank a lil’ bit, and my sis thought it would be fun to experiment by mixing drinks… Yeah well that didn’t go so well for her 😛 Still, it tasted so nice! I didn’t take any photos ’cause a) it might get her into trouble and b) mine and le boyf’s ass would be kicked 😛

The day after we went on a walk to this really really nice place that I can’t remember the name of OTL. Shall edit this post when I find out where it was n_n But yeah, the weather was gorgeous! But too hot for walking ;______; I had to take off my lower lashes as they were irritating me so much D:
Some pictures of the walk~

♥ Happy International Gyaru day! n_n ♥

Hey guys and gals! How’re yoou all? ^^

Happy International Gyaru Day everyone! I was really looking forward today, ’cause I got to meet the lovely Amelie and my boyf is also sleeping round tehe <3 What did yoou all do for International Gyaru Day? ^^

It was my first time styling short hair, and it took longer than expected o_O I think I might just have to invest in new curlers ;______; Sigh, so much to buy with so little money D:

Where’s the sun gone?~

I’ve decided to doll up today instead of tomorrow ’cause I was bursting to wear a dress but it seems that tomorrow might be a little too cold ;_______; Aah wells, I could always doll up tomorrow as well I guess tehe~
I wanted to try out the Hime Gyaru style, but then decided to go with the sweet & dark style and asked the lovely Amelie to help me out with what to wear and shizzle~ She also helped me on how to do big hair so I hope that I haven’t let her down ^^

I also gained an award! I was just so surprised and happy to see on Wen’s blog post that I received an award >///< She’s so kind! <3
