whoop whoop! happy new year everyone. I hope this year will be a good one. ^^

I didn’t get the chance to buy the jumpsuit that I wrote about earlier to wear for New Year’s. But I found this old dress in my closet. it was a bit outdated but I tweaked it a bit ^^ and added a belt. but oh it was so cold! x_x anyway.

★ Happy New Year! ★

 

Hello. So… the year is coming to an end. hm. I felt like writing something witty and clever here but I seem to have lost all my words. oh well, anyway. I’ll be posting some hair and outfit pictures instead~~ I’ve been into curling my hair a lot recently.

I’m also thinking about making a tutorial for this hairstyle. ^-^


Even though it’s winter it’s still hot enough outside to be showing some leg~
strange for being december in Sweden :o

Oh and I found this wonderful “jumpsuit” thingy at H&M yesterday! I could totally rock this outfit at New Years Eve. But since almost everyone’s out shopping during the middle sale season, and for New Year’s, of course my size was all sold out. Everywhere. I think I’ve searched almost every store in Stockholm. so I probably won’t be wearing it for New Year’s. ;_;

But I did find this cute cap at Åhléns. ^-^

it reminded me of one of the cap’s Okarie has. And as you may already know, I’m a big fan of hers. <3

Oh well that’s all for today. ^^;;
But I’ll try to get on with that tutorial soon. and I hope I’ll find something to wear for New Year’s Eve..

Hello! It’s been a while since my last blog post… again. I’ve been busy with job hunting, been working on various design projects, preparing for Christmas, and so on. So I’ve completely forgot to tell you about my new hair cut I got last week at my favorite place: Toni&Guy. I haven’t had my hair cut for almost six months, so it felt necessary. I also decided it was time to update my lookbook once again!

For the haircut I was so pleased with my last haircut so I decided to stay with that style ^^

And some recent outfits~~

That was all I had for today. But I feel that it’s been an awfully long time since I did a tutorial of some kind… I’ll have to look into that soon!

 

Hello! I haven’t had the time to blog for a while again. ,_, I’ve been sick almost the whole week, and I’ve also been taking care of my mom (who’s recovering from surgery). I hope she gets well soon. ♥ I’ve also been working with some design things, so I haven’t had much time for blogging. But I hope I can find some time to make a proper blog post soon. I have so much things I want to share with you!

But today I want to share one of my biggest fashion inspirations – Rie Matsuoka ♥ (or you may know here better as Okarie). I’ve been kind of obsessed with here lately. I love her sense of style, very sweet but still elegant. I picked some inspirational pictures from her blog:

Get ready for some picture spamming~~

wine red pants ♥ I was so inspired that I bought a pair of my own~~

Hairstyles

I love it that she can pull off so many different hair styles. She always looks fabulous. ~~
      

The two last pictures are probably wigs. God I want those wigs… and I wish my hair was a little bit longer so I could wear extensions and put it up in a bun again ♥

 

Hello again! haven’t had the time to update much lately. But this weekend I went to a burlesque event in Stockholm: Duty Calls. It was truly amazing. And so many great artists and performances. Dusty Limits (so charming!), Vicky Butterfly, Virginia Valentine, Ruby Luscious and Fräulein Frauke. And everyone at the party was all dressed up in 1940′s vintage outfits and uniforms. I could stay there forever. *-*

I thought I’d seize the moment and wear something burlesque inspired. ~~

hmm I think my whole outfit is from H&M actually ^^;;
and I really had to struggle with my hair. x_x


I love this little hat *-*

I don’t have many pictures from the party though.

Amanda and Johan, so pretty ♡

Over all it was a wonderful party. I had a great time. I hope I get to go to more events like this. ^-^

Oh and yesterday it was Advent Sunday. It was also +11°C outsite. o_O It’s kind of strange because normally in Sweden we have -20°C and lots of snow by now. but I guess I shouldn’t complain ^^ I love Advent because you get to eat lots of saffron buns. We had a few. 8)

Om nom (≧∀≦)♪

 

Hello! I had so much fun this weekend! ^-^ At Saturday there was a “lolita reunion” for the swedish lolita community forum, to celebrate their 5-year aniversary. Even though I haven’t dressed lolita in several years, it was actually really fun ^-^ I met both old and new friends, and I had a wonderful time.
ヾ( ^ω^)ノ

Outfit:

I still look a bit more gyaru than lolita… Mostly because I sold almost all my lolita clothes. ^^;; But I found this skirt that I made a couple of years ago, and I think it still looks okay. couldn’t find a petticoat for it though >_<

Make-up and so on:
  
Love this cute ring from Summer Dream ♥ I’m also wearing a wig from Yesstyle. ^-^ And circle lenses ~~

At the tea house~~

We were quite a big group. I think we were about 17 people. ^^;; I didn’t get to take so many pictures though.. It was a bit dark inside the tea house. >_>


I had delicious English Afternoon tea ♥
And thank you everyone! I had a wonderful time ♥

I also went to a party this weekend. But with totally opposite style. ^^;;

Also borrowed my boyfriend’s sweater ^^;;

The hat is from somewhere in Harajuku ^^

☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆

Lots of things to do this week. Now I’m going to continue looking for a job. wish me luck… x__x

Hello! Just wanted to post some recent outfits and meetups and things. ^-^


like this retro-inspired thingy ~~


Love this coat! (Zara) and these cute mittens-thingy that a friend made for me ♥ She’s actually selling lots of knitted things, so I’ll be sure to let you know when she gets her webshop open ^-^


Tried some kind of weird make-up o_O

☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆

And I also got to hang out with lots of wonderful people this weekend! ♥


Also went to a party. yay hot-shots :D


Hair and make-up. ~~


Outfit~~

It was so fun to meet everyone! I had a great time ^-^ hope to see you again soon!

 

Hello! So earlier I told you a little about my long brown wig from Clair Beauty on Yesstyle. And now I thought I’d do a little quick review. I bought this one (coffee), but I decided to give it bangs since I think it looks better on me. Sorry for the crappy pictures though. I’ve sort of moved in with my boyfriend but I haven’t brought my camera equipment yet. So I don’t have any place with good lighting >_> But I hope this will do.

 
left: no flash – right: with flash (super-strong-mega-flash-of-doom)

I’m very satisfied with the wig. I think the curls look very natural. It looks a bit weird with a strong flash, but I think that’s almost inevitable for synthetic wigs. or at least in this price range.


I personally like it best when I have all hair on one side, and with a hat. this hat is from H&M. ^-^

Both my boyfriend and I like to shop from Yesstyle. And we’ve never had any trouble with shopping from there. The shipping is usually very quick, and if something doesn’t fit we’ve always been able to return it and get a refund. Although one thing to notice is that if the item is not ready to ship it might take a long time for it to arrive. It usually says in the description how long it will take.

And some feedback on the wig:

Positive:
+ Great quality, it feels soft and looks natural.
+ Great fit. And you can adjust the size a bit.
+ Nice color, matches the image
+ Fast shipping (if you chose one that is ready to ship!)

Negative:
- No hair net included… even though the description said so?
- Looks weird with flash.. but then again most synthetic wigs in the price range probably do so.
- If you choose one that is not ready to ship you may have to wait a long time for it to arrive

Rating: ★★★★☆/ 4 out of 5

Also, another thing I love about this wig is that now I can finally make my favorite updo again! Some have asked me to show how I do this updo on a wig, so I made a quick video of it.

It’s very similar to my last updo tutorial. But anyway.
