Okarie is graduating POPTEEN // おかりえちゃんがポップを卒業する！

I just found something sad....

Okarie is graduating from Popteen as of this May!

This video was uploaded on the PopTeenTV channel today:

So I guess that's it!

I am looking forward to seeing what she'll be doing from now one. I surely hope I can keep looking at her pretty face somewhere!

Okarie is (was?) one of my top favorite models!

Who's yours?

[JAPAN 2012] Getting my hair done in Shibuya // 渋谷でエクステ☆

How're ya all doin'?

So today I decided to do a post about Japan again.

I'll tell you about when I had my hair done in Shibuya! (´⊙ω⊙`)

I went to a salon called "hair space COCO" in Shibuya. I found it through "HOT PEPPER BEAUTY", a Japanese beauty magazine (both off and online) that has a lot of offers (coupons) to different hair- or nail salons. 

I ordered a hairdye and extensions for about 10,000 yen (about 100 USD). The staff was super nice and efficient. The dye and the extensions were done by different people, and because the dyeing took a long time - like almost 2 hours - I figured I'd be spending most of the day in the salon, because surely, doing the extensions would take a lot longer.

Yes?

No.

Dead wrong. 

I tell you, 

I had a full head of extensions (about 70) done, braided, and it took less than 30 minutes. I was like "wtf" when she was done. I had it done by the skinniest person on this planet, I'm sure. She looked like she'd break from the sheer impact of walking. щ(ºДºщ)

Anyways, the extensions turned out great!

These puri's are taken about 1 hour after getting them done:

And I washed and dried and straightened and curled and treated my hair just like I would've done with my own (using treatment once a week and sleeping with braids, not using a dryer to dry) and they looked perfectly fine when I had them taken out almost 4 months later, only because my hair had grown long enough for the braids to be ridiculously visible.

If you ever want to have your hair done in Japan, I highly recommend this salon! 

I had them set my hair for the gyaru meet later the same week, and it looked fab as well. Sadly, humidity kills all nice hair. 

The salon is located in central Shibuya, walking from Shibuya 109 towards 109MENS, when you reach the crosswalk with LUMINE on your right and the Disney Store up the street on your left, walk up until you get to Forever21 and LOFT. It's right beside LOFT, on the 5th floor.

I have no idea if they speak English though, and I kinda doubt it... ^^'' 

That's it for this time!

Hope you have a great Easter

Outfits // 最近のコーデ

The other day I got my hands on a better version of Photoshop, and playing with it, I figured I might as well make some stuff for the blog. So I did some greeting-thingies!
Whatcha think, aren't they cute? :D
I also finally fixed the "about me" and "contact" pages. I feel so creative! 

Today's post will be....

AWWW LOOK IT'S HELLO KITTY!

... but not from today, just two from this week:

the dress is from Rose Fan Fan. Originally wanted to sell it, but actually think it looks decent. Do you like it?

blue shirt is from Liz Lisa - black t-shirt from Ank Rouge - skirt from Vero Moda - tights is Forever21

What do you think?

I don't know if the more rock-ish style like the first one, or the cuter one like the second one is best. I keep changing my style at least twice a week!

It's like I'm only 20 years old and I already have a style crisis (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ
Do you have any tips for that? 


Well, that's it for this time!
Take care you all! 

ps. wow it's so much more fun blogging when I can put all this cute stuff everywhere(⁰▿⁰)◜✧

Lief... nah. // 書く内容ないっす

Hello all you angelfaced people.

So, it's been a week since my last update. And I've been thinking about updating a lot, but problem is, that I really have nothing to talk about.

Lately, my only thought about stuff is

Which doesn't make for very interesting posts.

 I think I am simply just not meant for blogging. 

It's like.. I look at other people's blogs and I'm like "this is cool" and "this is pretty legit" until I realize that they're usually just talking about their toes  or their pet penguins imploding. I mean.... they lead just as uninteresting lives as I do.

They just have the gift of conveying everyday boredom in a way that makes it seem intriguing.

So while they are all awesome bloggers I'm just either throwing them papers or going like 

because I can't convey my boring shit as awesomely as they can. 

Anyhow, that is.... why I am not writing anything interesting.

So....

Have a nice day, I s'pose? 

Promnight!

Hello guys!

Did you have a great week?

Mine was... uhm... different. Because of my foot I stayed home from school on Monday, and on Tuesday I ran around on crutches. It was very much not elegant and I swear, walking on crutches must be the no. 1 workout of the WORLD. Especially if your crutches actually don't fit your height, so you end up walking wrongly, lifting yourself off the ground way higher than you ought to.

What? Nooo, that didn't happen to me.
OK, maybe it did.

Anyway, miraculously my foot has bettered extremely quickly, and I was able to attend prom yesterday evening with no crutches and even in heels!

I LOVED my dress, hurhur, it was so pretty.
I'm sorry about the bad picture, buut that's the only one we got. Credits to my mom's fantastic photographic abilities...


Have you guys ever had prom at your school? If yes, what's it like in your country/your school??

Here we have dinner with everyone in class and their parents and boy-/girlfriends, whoever they invite, and then we dance Les Lanciers. It's an old formal dance, and it's really hard, haha, and all the girls are scared to death fearing they'll trip in their long dresses. Everybody dresses up like crazy haha!
Afterwards we all went to a Casino which... was a real waste of money. Casinos are meant to be in Vegas after all!

Hanging out!

Hi guise!

Long time no see, aye?

Yeah. More the rule than the exception with me, I know.
And I say that in practically every entry, I know.

sorreh...

This weekend I spent with my online-name-twin-(lol)-Sayamin!  
(she's the prettyface behind www.littlemisscawaii.com in case you care)

We haven't seen each other in ages, so we had a lot of chilling to do. For some reason life just seems to happen in the most annoying way whenever we make our schedules match to hang out.

Living like 3-4 hours apart doesn't help much either.

This is the only picture she let me take, and she's probably going to kill me for putting this up here. But hey, cute needs sharing. 

And I'm a mean person. 


ANYWAY,

We had a lot of fun!
I tried her great wigs to find out how I look blonde, and though I already doubted it'd suit me, it was even worse than expected, so I'm sticking with the dark! haha.














She also did my nails. We spent like... 1,5 days doing them, but it was really nice having time to chat.

And on my way home, I sprained my ankle.

Right before prom on Friday and all!

Cross your fingers for me being able to dance on Friday :c

Anyhow, that's it for now!

I'll go back to being all handicapped and on crutches and all.

Take care!! ♥♥

Present from Japan!

Allright.

So you know how I'm having all sorts of cravings and eating all sorts of nasty things lately, right?

Well, today this arrived:

(I wanted to watermark this, but my editing program was clearly having PMS)

And I wonder why I can't start eating healthily again.

I mean,

this is a box of ALL SORTS of New Years candies that a friend in Japan sent me. It has everything from pizza- or salad-flavored potato chips to traditional and kinako (roasted soybean flour it's really good, I swear!) ricecakes and "granny-candies", "deco-pocky" and beautiful chocolates.

In other words, it's one big box of sin.

Very tasty sin.

WELL,

I am undoubtedly ridiculously happy to receive this, but it's going to require for me to run a marathon or two to get through it.

Oh, yeah, and it also had instant ramen.

I mean, BANZAI.

Anyway, better get back to my homework...

Hope you have a great weekend!
