New Gyaru Meet

Hi Gals! I was very lucky to meet up with my good friends Mina and Amina a few weeks ago here in Houston. This was my first time to get to hang out with Amina, and I was so happy that we got along so well. She is such a sweet and experienced gal, and we had such a fun time. ^^

We talked about lots of stuff and did some purikura, then we went to grab a bite to eat at a close Korean cafe. Afterwards we went to Ziller for karaoke and sang together! Hahaha, I had so much fun singing my favorite songs with Mina and Amina.

Anyway, please enjoy the pictures I got from the meet:

Now that I am taking Summer school, I actually have a few weeks break before classes start! I am going on a road trip next weekend to New Orleans to meet and hang out with Robin of Honest, Unique, Beautiful. I am also planning a trip up to Dallas for what I hear is a an excellent purikura store in the galleria mall. I am very excited for these trips and will of course gets lots of pictures!

Lots of Love,

Shoppaholic Rehab

I was going through some of my old clothes to get rid of and made some outfit combinations I hadn't really thought up yet. I know this is kind of boring, but I feel proud of myself for this! I have a bad habit of looking at my closet and saying "I've got nothing to wear." Well... I have lots of stuff to wear, I guess I am just lazy a lot of times or bored with my current clothes.

Then I want to go shopping and buy more stuff that just sits in my closet after only a few times of wearing. Terrible habit I am breaking! I am trying to be more creative and think positive about what I have and what I can do with it. Here are a couple of things I came up with:

I need to do this more and maybe write it down or take pics, then choose from those ideas later!!

Lots of Love,

Style Update - Waved Hair

Hello Gals! ^_^
Good news~ I have a part time job close to home! Many want to know why I quit my full time job...

I missed being able to sleep in and have a decent amount of time to get ready in the morning! With an hour commute, I was always tired and pressed for time.

Now I  am happy to get a great nights sleep and wake up refreshed and ready for the day! It makes me feel pretty and puts me in a great mood.

Recently I was able to go to work and have time to come home and get dressed for class.
Here is a close up of my makeup - I used Diamond Lash in Glamorous. My friends in class noticed and loved how dramatic these lashes are. I felt very lovely with this pair!

I can wear my favorite type of earrings. ^_^

Anyway, just an outfit post to share for now. I used my triple barrel curling iron to get the lovely waves in my hair. I will do a review on it soon to share how well it works!

Until next time, my lovelies!

Japan Festival - Ganbarre! (IMG HVY) PART 1

Japan Festival is an annual event held in Houston's Hermann Park to showcase Japanese culture, food, music, etc. This year the weather was very nice (although I did get sun burned). There were tons of shops, food stalls, and activities! It was tons of fun, so lets what was there!

It was quite crowded near the stalls, but lots of grass room to relax!

The line for Takoyaki (octopus balls) and Taiyaki (fish shaped pastry) was super long!

Taiyaki is a sweet pastry filled with red bean paste. ^_^

Takoyaki is a fried battered seafood ball with teriyaki sauce.

In addition to the stalls, there were also blankets laid out to look through things available for purchase.

More to come, with lots and lots of pictures! ^_^

Christmas shopping at the Galleria

Made an evening at the Galleria with my dear Mark and friend Ivan. :) Just a pic of my outfit. Of course I had to stop by the Sanrio store! We roamed the arcade for a bit as well.

Here we can see Mark in the background twirling his mustachio and Ivan pretending to be in a fighting game. How silly!


Afterwords we went to DunoBaby for tapioca. Heheh... try to ignore the wierd look on my face please! I scored a new pencil case, 3D stickers, and a scheduler. YAY :)

Hopefully, you guys have finished your shopping by now... Christmas is right around the corner!!

A new fashion site for me

Browsing the net today instead of starting work... I found this fun site - http://lookbook.nu/ - that has given me lots of coordinate ideas (one below). You can even sort coordinate posts by brand of clothing (ex. F21 and H&M) so you can really put your new found ideas to work.

I really liked this coordinate posted below. Socks and heels can be cute if done right, flirty skirt, fedora, and the over sized scarf looks so warm and cuddly. ^_^ This is something I would wear for sure. Hahaha... makes me want to spend a day digging through the racks at my local thrift store. Fun times!

Recent Coordinate

Haha... seems like I always wear the same cardigan! But I love leopard print and its my fav. ^_^
My hair was curled and then pulled back into a poufy pony with a leopard print bow... didn't turn out as well as I thought. Live and learn, right?

shorts: Hot Topic

A recent mall trip has filled my closet a bit more. ^_^ A "gets" post is coming next!
