Me Jane/Glamorous Jane S/S 2012♥

Hey guys!
Just another information post! I looked through some gal brand websites today and stumbled upon the one from me Jane! I instantly fell in love with their Spring/Summer Collection 2012. My interest wasn't very big for this brand before but now I just have to follow their collections and I'll definitely check out their 109 store when I'm in Japan!
This collection is just so beautiful, just as the photoshoot. I really would like to have some of their pieces. It's all so summer-ish and I think this could also be combined very good within Tsuyome Gal!

Take a look and tell me what you think!

LOVE it so so much! ♥

Yesterday was a quite boring day cause I was just at home cleaning, cooking and watching TV, so in the evening I just thought - why not try my new curling iron out of boredom? I did. The hair-style turned out quite well and I really didn't feel like staying home, so I spontaneously called friends to go clubbing. I didn't expect it to be that ...idk.... exhausting cause I actually didn't plan to stay long but ended up (quite drunk btw) coming home at 5am ヾ(´囗｀｡)ﾉ

←←In the beginning my hair looked like this. (I tried suji-mori [スジ盛り] again

but.

as always.

because of shitty hair-sprays or whatever.

after 30 minutes...

...it looked like this ↓↓

fhaufahdfasbdvafvdua. why. why. why. (×□×；)

Anyways.... onto the outfit -

Outfit Rundown

Chiffon tunic: Heaven & Earth

Top: Skinny Lip

Skirt: NewYorker

Shoes: NewYorker

I'm really wasted today, so I couldn't get my ass up to start writing on my assignments (two. deadline in 5 weeks. total of ~25 pages. fuck.), I spent the whole day watching the fairytale theme-day on a german TV channel non-stop (without any commercials. I mean, really non-stop /DDD)

Until then,

lots of love♥

GARULA S/S 2012

Heya everyone!

I finally have some free time today (still have to tidy up my room and write on my assignment though) to post here. Under the japanese Gal blogs I usually check, is also the one from Anna Fujita (藤田杏奈) who isn't only a magazine model but also director of the gal fashion brand GARULA. My lovely gal Mitsu introduced this brand last August (view her post here). It is very influenced by the popular d.i.a. style but still kinda different, which made my interest grow.

After looking at the A/W collection 2011 which was quite nice, I followed Anna's blog and therefore I saw her post about the new S/S collection 2012 and thought - why not sharing it with you?

So here it is!

GARULA official site: http://garula.jp/
GARULA web store: http://fashionwalker.com/garula/

I like some of the pieces of this collection but I think that GARULA has to turn away from copying d.i.a. that much and instead try to find their own way more (although this collection is already better than the last one comparing the similarity to d.i.a.)

What do you think??

Btw I really really really want the beige one-piece on the fourth picture after seeing it on Anna and also on egg model Yuna (who seems to work at GARULA now too)

Lots of love♥

158 days to go.

Hey guys,

first post this month! I can't believe that it's already March. Time passes so fast, especially when I'm working. On the one hand this is kinda bad because my diet is going really bad at the moment, but on the other hand it's also good because there are just 158 days before I go to Tokyo LOL /DDD silly me already counting the days... TAT

Anyways, this post is really random since I neither have proper outfit pictures nor had the time to download another video editor to edit the hair tutorial again .____.

I went shopping a bit last Saturday with my Mum. I wore a rather casual outfit:

I've found the perfect shoes (which I couldn't catch a good pic of - coming soon), Jeffrey Campbell Lita look-a-likes! I've been wanting some Lita's since a year now but wasn't able to bring up the 200 Euro to buy them, therefore I'm really happy about the 70 Euro alternative from a german shoe shop!
After that we went to a new japanese restaurant called Ichiban (run by chinese people though because we have just like... one japanese person in my city?! /DD) and had an All-you-can-eat-menu for just 11.90 Euro! You could order with a tablet, just like in the Izakayas in Tokyo!

The food was quite good, especially the meat and fish. The Takoyaki wasn't that good though... .__.

I've been quite lazy with outfits lately cause I just go to work (okay I'm working at a fashion company so it's not just work, I gotta look good /DD), but this was one outfit from Monday (I think?) with my new Heaven&Earth onepiece and my new shoes (which you can't see cause it was too dark...) ↑↑

One of my favourite pieces at the moment ♥

That's pretty it for today, my wrist infection thingie got a bit better so I'll be able to answer all comments from the last 2342647 posts soon! And then there's also the next Osusume! post to come, reviewing my Triple Barrel!

BTW my giveaway ends this saturday - if you haven't entered yet, hurry and enter!!! HERE

Lots of love♥

Make-up, New Lenses&Recent Gets!

Hey guys!

First, I really want to say sorry, I wasn't able to reply to all of the nice comments you let me here in the last weeks. I've not only been very busy but also my wrist still hurts alot, so please gimme some more time! With this I also want to thank you, you're all so amazing. I can't describe how much your comments cheer me up and make me want to improve more, to get more self-confident and to get my ass up for working hard for this blog but also for university/work.

Therefore - thank you so so much ♡o｡.(__｡ __)

_________________________________________________________________________

I still couldn't edit the video tutorial. Nobody answered my request from my last post, so I want to ask again - Does anyone know a good free video editor? Really urgent since I do want to post that hair tutorial asap !

Anyways, I got some okay-ish make-up shots (since I barely post such) from last Saturday where you can also see my new lenses. I love how they give a light grey effect fading into brown though looking natural. My favourite lenses at the moment!

I'm so looking forward to Japan (although there are still like more than 5 months before I go there) that I already write lists for where I want to go, what I want to do, what I want to buy, where and what I want to eat and who I want to meet, that I'm getting really excited. Therefore I must hold myself back to be able to shop like crazy in Tokyo /DD

Nevertheless I just got two new pieces - one from Heaven&Earth and the other one from Russ•K (more like a ''Surfer-Style'' based brand, never heard of it before but the shirt just looked so d.i.a.-ish that I had to buy it!)

That's it for today!

Don't forget to enter my GIVEAWAY! ･････(￣。￣ )

Lots of love♥

SALE!

Hey everyone!

I actually wanted to post the Hair Tutorial now, it's also already done. I put the video on my PC yesterday and edited it with Windows Movie Maker, after around 2 hours I wanted to save it as a wmv.-file but WMM told me that it's not possible - my first fml.-moment. I had to leave, therefore I wanted to try it again today after coming home from my friend's house where I slept over. I searched for free video editors online and found one, edited the video again for 2 hours and then my PC broke down, so everything was deleted again. Then I edited again, remembered to save it often so it won't get deleted again, but then the audio files I wanted to add couldn't be found. I tried it more than five times, restarted my PC in total ten times today but it didn't work. So I was like - FU, I'll just save it like that and add the music later. I tried but then the ''free'' video editor told me that it actually isn't free so it will have a watermark throughout the whole video - 23289 fml.-moment. After 6 hours sitting in front of my PC, I was so tired that I didn't care anymore - so I saved it. Tried to. At 68% done, my PC broke down again. Restarted. Tried again. After 82% Pc broke down. - 1903828774 fml.-moment.

That's the story. So please help me - Anyone of you know a good free video editor??

Anyways, that's the reason why the SALE-post is delayed and the Hair Tutorial post is even more delayed. Sorry.
Therefore - Sale post now:

Prices are NOT including shipping cost!

Prices are in Euro!

I ship worldwide but prefer Germany/Europe!

Payment just via Paypal or german bank transfer!
