029: eat my wrath

Hey. I basically pull lyrics from songs for titles.

New Year's Eve

I settled for bangs

Proving Litas make everything fashion

New Year's Day

Mumster bought me a new dress that I wore on New Years. I absolutely love it, but I'm not sure how often I'll get to wear it because it's velvety. 

I've been trying to limit my shopping lately. I've been doing pretty well. I've been getting a lot of the stuff I ordered the month before, however, so it feels a lot as if I've been shopping. It's pretty exciting trying to guess what came in the mail today. The shirt I bought at the mall.

• Geo Starmish Princess Mimi circle lenses in brown and black from LensVillage
• Poizen Industries gas mask
• Dolly Wink lashes 07 Vivid Pop
• Dolly Wink cream eyeshadow in 02 Crystal Rainbow
• Candy Doll highlighter in Cream Beige
• Candy Doll blush in Carrot Orange
• Sourpuss blood drip knee high socks
• French Connection bear hug shirt

 

A few days ago, I went out with my friends for food. We had the most ridiculous time, getting the last donuts for the day, surprise specials for a restaurant we like and kept talking about.

• Lemon Meringue donut from Glory Hole Donuts
• Guu Saka Bar menu (I kept talking about brie croquettes, and it ended up being the special)
• Guu Mick Jagger (potatoes and beef nikujaga)
• Guu Matcha Pan de Ice

 

 My friend took some pictures of me wearing the shirt. Also, I got a couple of new wigs from Lockshop. Unfortunately, there's a something off with two of the wigs, so I'm waiting to see if something can be done. Though it doesn't stop me from wearing them in pictures~

The one time I dyed my hair, I got too much crap from my family. I still want to dye my hair all sorts of colours, so, I opted for ordering a couple wigs. It's pretty hard to fit all my hair under, though.

Having wigs mean I end up fooling around more and taking more random outfit photos~ Haha.

I also bought some hot pants from Topshop~ I love them, but they're too short to wear out of the house without me feel a bit embarrassed.

That's all for now. Later days~

021: i want to do bad things with you (mini giveaway!)

Hey guys~ Can anyone guess the reference in the title?


Anyways, I've been running around like crazy with work. I haven't been taking many outfits due to my attire being all black. It's going to get boring really fast~

Wednesday

Wig~

I recently received a wig I ordered online back in October~ I was kind of disappointed when received it and it wasn't what I expected. It looks good in photos, but in person, the fibres are very cheap, thin and shiny. The wig isn't very thick and tangles very easily. I guess I got what I paid for, though~ I guess it's fine for simple photoshoots or something. Also, the outfit is something I wore to hang out with friends.

Recently, I've been working really close to the mall. It's great, but also a bit of a problem because on my break I might end up buying something :P I'm doing my best to keep them cheap or practical~ An extra black blouse to wear to work from Dynamite, some arm warmers from H&M for the in between Canadian weather and some Lush cuticle cream. The arm warmers were $2 each! I bought a couple and double of the black because I ended up really liking them.

I ran into a few good sales at work. Tuesday, I ended up buying the black Lord and Taylor cardigan because it was on sale~ I bought it for about 50% off on sale, including my discount. It's so luxurious! It's made of 100% merino wool and is softer than any of the sweaters I currently own. I'm a sucker for wool, and the style of the sweater is just perfect! I know I will wear this often, whether I'm working or going out, so it's worth every pretty penny~

The socks I'm wearing above were also BOGO sale at my work. I had been secretly coveting them for a while, so I took advantage of the sale. They also came in robin's egg blue and bubblegum pink!

On that same Tuesday, they opened up the new Eaton Centre Sephora location! I foolishly went in to take a look at the new setup, only to walk out with a Shu Uemura lash curler. As soon as I saw they now carried Shu Uemura, I couldn't stop myself from buying the lash curler~ I'd heard so many good things about it, and had been secretly coveting it for a year now! I also received a free tote with my purchase~ Very much worth it. :)

Working also tempts me into buying lots of food! Everyday at work, I pass by a lovely displays of sweets~ I caved in over the week and bought a slice of Black and White cake. The gentleman serving the food cut me an incredibly large slice! I couldn't finish it in one sitting and ate it for "breakfast" the next day.

Speaking of breakfast, I ended up eating the cupcakes I bought yesterday~ That's adult lyfe~ I learned, though, that I have a way of getting them for free! Hahahaha, hacked the system :P

On to the mini giveaway~

018: hotpot weather

Monday, my family and I got to do something we haven't done in a while. A hotpot!

With the weather just getting colder and colder, dad and I decided it was time to finally have a hotpot. For those of you who don't really know what a hotpot is, it's kind of like an Asian version of fondue, but it's a soup with noodles and veggies and other stuff like that. We had pork balls, fish balls, rice cakes, buk choy, udon noodles, dumplings, and fried tofu. (✪◡✪)~

Haha, mum is updating her FB

 Some outfit posts from the rest of the week. Nothing too particular happened, went out with friends, work, and attempted to be productive.

Last Saturday, family dinner for my cousin's bday

Sunday, work

 You can also see I wore out the clip-in bangs I bought. There's a slight difference in shine and color. I have jet black hair and the bangs are natural black. I'm going to try to dye them and see if it will make a difference. (●ω●;;)

Thursday, Crowley's shirt and devil doodleband 3:)

Friday

Later days~

017: the addams family

I guess it's about time for a weekly recap? I'm finally forcing myself to sit down, haha~

Sunday, I spent it with my family for a bit, and then trekked over to Katie's place in order to drop off some of my fabric and be a little productive. I ended up staying the night, and got a bit sick D: I changed my outfits twice because I was indecisive that way :P

One

Two

 

Monday, I spent the day sick and sewing part of a cute dress. Not finished as of yet. I still need to get a zipper, lol.

Tuesday~

Tuesday was a long day. I had to run around for some more work training. Ran into a few people, it was fun. A fairly casual outfit. I wore boots instead of my flatforms. Also rocking out my new fave pair of pants~

I live on a street called Adams and it was Wednesday :P

I still wasn't feeling so well on Wednesday/Halloween, but I threw together a quick Wednesday Addams costume to get an Arizona tea at my closest convenience store.

Topshop get~

Thursday~

Thursday, I woke up from another bad dream and the morning started off pretty badly. Things started to turn around after getting my Topshop order in the mail~ I got the devil horn doodle headband I've been lusting over for months now. I've been seeing similar headbands worn in Popteen and by various bloggers. When I saw that Topshop had a pair, I knew I wanted to get a pair~ I also added some cute socks to my order since I felt it would be silly to just have one thing shipped from the UK and it really can't hurt to have a lot of cute socks~ (*´・ω・)

My best friend then called to ask if I wanted to go with him to Pacific Mall. We browsed a lot of shops I didn't remember seeing. I was also surprised they opened a Holika Holika store. Holika Holika is a well-known Korean cosmetic and beauty brand. I've been interested in trying their stuff and after browsing through the store, I might consider going back to try a few items. They have a fairly reasonable and affordable price point. I picked up both the small eyeshadow brush and make-up starter for around 10 bucks. I was looking for a finer eyeshadow brush for a while now, so I picked it up at Holika Holika when I saw it. I also picked up a fake fringe to try as I've been tempted to cut myself some bangs. There's a lot of stuff to see and food to eat at Pacific Mall. Hopefully, my friends ans I will be able to make another trip there soon.

I guess that's it for now. Hopefully, I will do a review soon. :3

Later days~

001: a bit of a challenge, birthday, and hair

So, at some point today, I decided on imposing a bit of a blogging challenge. Hopefully, I'll manage to blog every other day if not daily.

I guess it was a kind of a whole weird birthday revelation or something? Not sure but w/e~ As far as birthdays go, it was an extremely chill one. Not the absolute best that I can remember, but it went pretty well.

I started it with drinking while staying up browsing the internet until 5am. I was really tired, but got extremely distracted watching Dasshutsu Game Dero! videos and looking at circle lenses. (^_^;) It was alright since plans for lunch with my best friend fell through. Awesome thing though, mum made me last minute chocolate cake and gave me money to order pizza ~ (^~^) I would have settled to ice cream though, lol.

 I was going to do a haul and review post today, but I feel that I will save that for tomorrow or so. I felt like curling my hair though, so I ended up styling for pictures. I'm wearing extensions for fun. :D I did my make up, too, for working action or something like that, lol~

 This is my first brother. He ended up walking in on me while curling and asked if I could try waving his hair. It seems to be more "textured" rather than waves, though. His expression is supposed to be funny rather than disappointed. Haha.

He took a picture, too. I tried. I'm not a very serious person, so taking photos usually end in a silly face~ I look as if I'm rather pained to even try a "regular" picture.
