Purikura Tokyo Trip 2012

Heya everyone!

Due to still being sick, I found some spare time to scan the Purikura from my trip to Tokyo in August of last year (yup I know. this is so delayed.)! I didn't take half as much Purikura as I actually wanted to but the ones I took turned out quite nice lol.

Left ones are with the cute Yuri when we met in Ikebukuro. We had an amazing day in Sunshine City filled with talking about everything that happened since we last met 1 1/2 years ago, eating tons of Gyoza in the Gyoza Stadium and almost the same amount of sweets in the sweet corners around and the Ice-cream City, as well as drinking our forever favourite Tapioca drinks and shopping till we were exhausted as hell.

Right ones are from the day the Gaijin Gyaru meeting arranged by Rox and Charlotte took place in Shibuya. Unfortunately the head destroyed my curls therefore my hair just went all-flat right after I left the house lol.

 Top left ones are from the day I met the adorable Rika. This was also one day before leaving for Germany so I just got new Extensions after dyeing my hair brown. Rika is such a cutie and her style/make-up and hair skills are da bomb, I was super jealous lol! We had a lot of fun walking around, shopping and eating. Hope to see you soon again, girl!

Do you remember my friend Ran ( read the blog post from back in 2010 when I first met her here)? I met her when I was first in Tokyo during my Working Holiday-time. She was extremely into d.i.a. at that time and I just spontaneously talked to her one day when I saw her walking the streets in Mitaka, just because she looked so stunning. We met a few times since then and we're still having contact over mails and facebook and now that I was in Tokyo again, we took the chance to meet which ended in the Puris on the top right! I was really surprised cause she changed so much! She's totally into B-Gyaru now and I hardly remember meeting a girl as tanned as her lol /DD It was so much fun meeting her after this long time and I can't wait to meet her next time again!

The ones on the bottom were from my last evening in Tokyo when I met Nicola and Madeleine. I think we went to our favourite Izakaya, had food and drinks and then took Purikura. Oh how I wish I could go to that Izakaya right now and get myself a ton of food and drink as much as possible and go to karaoke after /DD

Left ones are with the cute Yuri again on the day we went shopping together in Shibuya I think but I honestly don't remember that good lol /DD But these are actually my favourite Purikura of this trip! Next to the right ones...

Right ones are from the night my friend Astrid and I went to get hair-set in Shinjuku followed by drinking, some other unimportant stuff (hardcore fail haha Asu du weißt Bescheid /DD) and clubbing with some other friends in Shibuya. We went to the club Camelot and it was my first time there and really so much fun. Got ourselves food after and then took the first trains home.

So many great memories when looking at these pictures. I really hope that I'll be back in Japan soon and meet everyone as well as new people! I can't wait!!


Lots of love♥

Pure Zen

Hey guys!

Unfortunately my contact lens sponsor Mukuchu closes down. Therefore I was really surprised that I received one more pair of lenses some days ago and asked them if they want me to do another review although they're quitting. They replied that they had already ordered this pair of lenses for me and therefore just sent them to me for free which I found to be so so nice of them (thank you very much again!).

The circle lenses I received were the EOS 007S Violet. They are really vibrant irl and I was unsure if they'd be suitable for everyday life but when I tried them on, the violet kinda lose it's color in my natural eye color making the lenses surprisingly look amazing! (I bet they will be more va-voom if you have light eyes though)! 

I'm so thankful for receiving this sponsorship for the past months and it's really sad that they close their store but they have a huge clearance sale going on whit many lenses for less than $15, most of them for not more than $8! Take a look here for their clearance sale on Facebook and on their website!

Here you can see the best pic of how the lenses look in my eyes in light

Since I already wanted to take some pictures of the lenses, I also tried my new MAC Pure Zen lipstick which I frequently saw in Gyaru magazines like Happie Nuts and Jelly. Unfortunately we don't have a MAC store in my hometown which is a pain in the ass cause I can't try the colors and check if they suit my skin color and stuff like that. Luckily this one was a good buy! The color is very feminine and great for everyday-use!

I'm so glad that I can finally catch up with blogging at least a bit! I'm still at home and I'm still feeling like shit therefore I'm unsure if next week will be better. I stayed at home for the last 4 days but it seems like my flu is not getting better...

Anyways, I'm planning to finally post the Purikura, I took in Japan during my trip in August of last year, tomorrow or the day after! 

Until then,

Lots of love♥

Duras for the Night.

Hey lovelies!

Due to being super sick again, I have to stay at home for a few days which is a bit annyoing cause I really wanna go to the gym and train for the Color Run which I just registered for (so exciteeeed!!! /DD)

Good point of being sick - I can finally catch up on sleeping and resting as well as blogging of course! I've so many ideas but so little time. At least I can start somewhere although I still didn't manage to sort all my pictures yet and I also don't really remember which I already posted and which not lol.

Gonna start with another outfit post today. This one is from two weeks ago when I was invited to my friends' birthday party. I usually don't go out, just because I don't like to go out here. Bad clubs, strange people and let's just don't talk about the music, it's always like the DJ lost his music taste right before starting his DJ-thing up there, mixing Backstreet Boys with PSY. Seriously. 

Nevertheless it was a fun night although I left quite early. I tried to dress up a bit toned down to what I usually do (and when I'm in Tokyo it's like 8x times this ''dressed-up'', you just never feel over- oder under-dressed in Tokyo). I decided for some boyfriend-type jeans with beige pumps and my beige Duras dress... uhm top (for me). Sounds boring but this top has a amazing low back with some volants for which I love it to death!

I got this top-dress-thingie at the Duras Outlet in Odaiba for around 4000Yen next to some other stuff! If you're in Tokyo you should defintely check out the Outlets in Odaiba with brands like Duras, SLY, Lip Service and many more. Great finds for little money! Mostly from the previous collections but a lot of items from the current collections aswell!

Sorry for the crappy quality, I was too much in a hurry for better pics. But at least you can guess... /DD

I love Duras. It's always so classy and feminine. It's just hard to wear here in Germany cause you easily look over-dressed. The only occassions I can wear most of my Duras clothes at are clubbing, christmas/new year/birthdays and dates (if I had dates. but I don't. so just delete that one for me lol.). The biggest minus for Duras is the price. It's already pricey when you live in Japan but for me needing to ship it to Germany and pay the shopping service and stuff like that, it's almost not affordable. Therefore I didn't buy anything from Duras since my last trip to Tokyo (and because I spent all my left-over moneys on Rienda yup.)

My current Duras favourites are these beauties, I want them but since I'm broke I just have to hope that I can find them on mbok someday lol.

 

Duras Wishlist - Can I have all of that pls?

Although Duras is quite expensive, it's woth every yen. Apart from my top above (I guess I just dislike fabrics that are too thin), all of my Duras clothes have a great quality especially my 12,000Yen (ouch.) black lace tunic (I wore it here and here)!

That's it for today, I wish you all a nice day and hopefully see you soon!

Lots of love♥

Gal Brands - Guerilla Sales

Hey everyone!

If you're on budget, like I am, you're always looking for Sales. I can't wait till the huge summer sales start so than I can buy the whole Rienda online shop lol. 

But since I also like brands like Duras, Lip Service and newest obsession Resexxy (thanks to Mika this brand really grew on me), I would like to also get some clothes from them which is now the best opportunity because many Gal brands have their so-called ''Guerilla Sales'' now. A lot of items up to everything are reduced 30%-70%! And because of the super nice yen rate it's even cheaper! I already got myself some cute high-waist shorts from Lip Service and white Sunglasses from Noela!

Guerilla Sales are always just up from a few hours to a few days, so if you have your eye on something - Get it now! It will be at the normal price after the sales end!

Current Guerilla Sales:

DURAS

 http://www.duras-store.jp/

Duras now has a time sale with many items reduced up to 50%. Unfortunately it's only today from 12:00 till 20:00 japanese time!

GYDA

https://runway-webstore.com/gyda/

GYDA's Guerilla sale is on for 3 days, since yesterday and until Sunday night 23:59 japanese time! GYDA has a lot of nice stuff for great prices, so you should definitely have a look!

RESEXXY

https://runway-webstore.com/resexxy/

Same time goes for my new obsession Resexxy, their sale ends on Sunday 23:59 japanese time with items reduced up to 50%.

LIP SERVICE

http://atomicboxx.com/shop/c/c10/

The Lip Service Guerilla Sale ends on Monday the 27th at 10am japanese time. I think that you definitely get the best prices there, starting from 500Yen you can basically get yourself a new wardrobe! You should definitely check this one out if you like Onee Gal styles!

I listed the brands above in which I'm most into but almost every Gal brand has a Guerilla Sale now (except the Shel'tter brands like Rienda WHY WHY WHY) with a lost of nice items for great prices. Since those brands tend to be a bit pricier and the shipping is quite expensive for us oversea gals, this is a great opportunity to save money!

(E.g. other brands having Guerilla sales atm: Murua, Emoda, Mary Coco, JSG, minirdees, Juriano Jurrie and a lot more!)

Have fun shopping!


Lots of love♥

これだけで良い。

Hey everyone!

I had a busy working week but it was surprisingly a lot of fun too so it flew by very fast! Yesterday I had to work at my other job too so there wasn't any time to update till now.

On Friday evening I went to the birthday party of two close friends which study/work at the same company. I really don't like to go clubbing here, I actually hate it, but it was nice anyways. My brother and my nephew are staying at our home for this weekend as well, so it never gets quiet here and after I forced myself to go to the gym today, I'm now hella exhausted, craving for ice-cream and a movie. BUT no, I promised myself to blog before. Otherwise I'll never get rid of all these pictures waiting to be posted lol.

As mentioned some posts before, I'm really into simple, straight and monotone looks lately. I just got myself some amazing long white pants at Zara as well as this cute pantskirt (the pic doesn't look that flattering but it looks lovely irl). I saw them on so many fashion bloggers and I just had to get them! 

Speaking of simple, here's one quite simple outfit from last week:

Knit: Zara
Skirt: New Yorker
Earrings: Rienda

I also really got into that marine blue trend but since I only got a top and some shoes yet but I got my eye on some earrings and a blue Rienda bag (gotta wait for the sale though since I can't afford to spend almost 9000Yen for a bag atm). 

Rienda released some really nice new arrivals but I also still want to have their tweed jacket in beige, all I'm waiting for is my next salary, so that my cravings can be satisfied lol. Other stuff I really want to have but no money yet but maybe soon but I'm broke but I don't even care just shut up and take my money:

I absolutely love the dress on the upper right! Blue really got me! As well as the white lace romper on the bottom left - so cute for summer!

I want this bag. I mean - marine blue & transparent trend in one?! Seriously, I need this one.
Their earrings are super cute as well, waiting for them to be restocked. Unsure about the sunglasses, I want a pair like these but for me 4000Yen are too much, hoping for the sale to come soon!

Lots of other looks are waiting to be posted, so I hope I'll find some time to post them within the next days!

Until then,


Lots of love♥

Beautiful Barcelona

Hello guys!

Thanks to today's National Holiday I finally found some time to get some stuff done! I worked a bit too much lately and therefore also got a bit sick which made me stay at home except for a short gym session. But since I can barely move now anymore, I'll just sit here and post some pictures of my trip to Barcelona! I took more than 1000 pictures, so I just tried to put my favourites together!

Now coming 60% food, 40% sightseeing lol.

(Btw I started writing this post on Thursday but it took till now to finally upload all the pics /DD I don't know why but although I made them smaller, the first 25 took 3 days to upload lol.)

I hope you enjoyed these pics and I made you want to go to Barcelona asap now! It was a nice holiday and I really enjoy this city and all of Spain and I hope to go back sometime soon (but Japan first pls k thx).

Lots of love♥
