I'M SORRY o(≧o≦)o

OH GOD GUYS I'M SO SORRY IT HAS BEEN SO LONG (✖╭╮✖)

However, yay! I'm back with another little post.

I've been insanely busy recently with work and other things, i just haven't had time to sit down and write... so i'll tell you a little about what i have been doing recently.

Okay, so around a month ago i bit the bullet and commented my picture on a status... and got accepted into the site modelling page 'Gore site modeling'! I have been pretty busy with that, doing shoots and stuff which is really fun! Not only does it give me motivation to create new outfits and just dress up more in general, but it really feels like i'm part of an amazing family who look after each other, and no-one is left out :3 Shoutout to you beautiful girlies! 

I also made quite a large, life changing decision ..

I have decided............... I am going to finally go to uni!

After a long time thinking i wanted to do fashion, musing over my options and generally getting nowhere, i realised that, duh.. it had been looking me in the face for years. Obviously i am going to do Japanese studies!
I feel that after leaving college and working full time for nearly 2 years, i am finally ready to go back into education, and that i will be more motivated to learn and exceed. 

To help me enrol onto this course i decided i am going to get a head start in learning the Japanese language (since i didn't take a language in GCSE or A level it will be harder for me to get in) so in the next year this will become a big part of my life that i will probably want to practice on you guys!

Also..
By the time i actually start the course i will be considered a mature student (lol) lol [LOL] wut.

ANYWAY i want to show you my new favourite wig from the amazing online store 'Geisha Wigs' because the owner is so lovely and the wig is just so high quality and i LOVE it.



(It was easter when i bought this, hence the cutie chick :3)
Lovely packaging of course, in fact recently the packaging has got even cuter, i urge you all to order and find out! ಠ◡ಠ

Here it is on, the wig is called 'Lilac sky' *_*


Can we also take some time to appreciate how cute this box my lenses came in from Uniqso...



And finally, a little photo showcasing mentioned lenses (i'l probably do a review on them soon..)



Sorry for the picture spam! But i just had to much to show you ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ)

Hope you are having a good summer so far! I will try be more regular from now on :3

Much love you beauties,

バイバイ !!

'Taobao' Shopping!

A few weeks ago, musing about outfits and general fashion related business,  i decided that I needed some new shoes. Not just any old shoes, but some real cool, chunky masterpieces to go with just about any outfit that has black involved... which is nearly my entire wardrobe >.<.




This caused me to have an epiphany. "TAOBAO!!" I cried.  This was the perfect excuse to explore the wonderful (albeit confusing) world of shopping services and Chinese eBay shopping!

So after (not much) research, i chose the shopping service 'Taobaoring', to help me purchase these beauties.

Now, if you don't know, a 'shopping service' is a service in which you pay someone from a given country (China in this case) to buy items from your chosen store, and they ship them to you personally. Unless you actually have a friend living in that country to do this for you, you have to use one of the many services online which will take a commission for that service, usually 8 - 10%. 'Taobaoring' takes 8%.

This may seem like a lot, but given the price of items on Taobao, it is in fact cheaper than buying from ebay or amazon in total, even with shipping fees! The incredibly cheap prices on this website is the reason why hundreds of people just like me, use Taobao for this kind of shopping. For example; some skeleton hair clips on taobao could be less than 50p depending on the seller, but on eBay they can be £7 or even more!

I'm not going to go into much detail on buying from Taobao in this post, but comment below if you want me to make a specific post on doing so, and I will :).



This is the box these beauties came in, i asked for it to be without the shoe box to save money on shipping, but the cardboard it came in was very secure, i nearly couldn't get into it there was so much tape. There's no way these babies were coming out during shipping.. 

Inside they were wrapped as above, like little socks for the shoes :3. They also came with two pairs of insoles for the front half of the shoe for comfort (and incase you lost one pair!), which i thought was lovely and thoughtful.



Please, gaze in awe at the beauty and grace that emanate within...

Or not, its cool either way (~ ̄▽ ̄)~

Basically; These shoes are awesome, the sizing specified is completely correct, they are comfy and really well made, not to mention exactly like the picture :)! They also have a red tartan insole, so what's not to love (✪㉨✪)!

To finish, have some pictures of my legs  (︶ω︶)  <----- {{ballsack mouth}}


P.s, I can't wait to get a better camera   >ohmygod<   iPhone quality is slowly destroying my soul (⊙_◎).

Hello I decided to blog ლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ)

HELLO ALL

Congratulations on finding my blog! This is the space where I ramble about anything and everything as well as fashion-y stuff.

ENJOY PLEASE <3

I finally put my birthday money (from 2 months ago) into my bank account and i went on a little bit of a spending spree... okay a big spending spree D:.
I've been wanting to get some new clothes for a while, since i only ever seem to spend money on food at the moment. The shit bits of living independently I guess!

Some of the things have already arrived, like more skeleton tights (mine had definitely run their course..) and some lilac creepers with white soles that I can't stop thinking about. Oh my.. the outfits i am going to create! ( ಠ◡ಠ )

I also got a silver wig, which i am sooo in love with. When i'm not at work it seems to be all i wear these days! 
I'm also really enjoying putting more colour in my outfits. Before it was just black, black and more black with a splash of white, but now i am forcing myself to buy colourful things to experiment and try new styles for summer! 
One style i am the most excited about trying though, is 'cult party kei'! I've been building some items slowly over a number of months and soon it should be complete.                                                                    ( ͡° ͜ʖ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ͜ʖ ͡°)ʖ ͡°)ʖ ͡°)


To get to the point though, I got a new bag and I want to show you. (≧ω≦)






Here we have the inside and outside (。♥‿♥。).
I wanted one of these bags for so long and >finally< I can let myself get one now that my old bag died! My favourite part is that the wings flap when i walk.

I think this bag is perfect for street style, it's super cute and really stands out in the crowd. Not something you usually see in the streets of boring York!
As you can see it has a decent amount of safe pockets too, and is really secure despite the drawstring top. I can fit everything i need in it, its well made, and super comfy to wear.

One thing that made me laugh was that it smelt like bees :3. I guess they have rubbed bees wax on it to make it polished, but I love the smell, it reminds me of eating honeycomb honey on french bread >_<.

I am really excited to write about shopping from taobao soon. It is my first experience doing it and it is really quite scary! The shoes i ordered though are babes, so that might be quite a long post. ¯\(©¿©) /¯

And so to finish, have a silly picture from the other day :P


Mwah ♥
