little thoughts before January ends.

Can't help but to put this song on repeat.Today is just boring and nothing more. Trying to blog more oftenand post pics as much as possible~
Me and ate Anz thinking of organizing a gal cir PH based but we gave up thinking for a name.~We've been thinking about this for months but we're never sure if we're ready.
And how do you explain when you feel homesick in your own home?So awkward. (-______-) I just can't stand that feeling.

Good night January, good morning February! 

teasing hair fail!

Im trying to add more volume with my short hair by teasing them. This is my first attempt and I really want to learn how!

it looks really funny hehe like a ball of messy hair. But I'll do better next time (I hope)

Coordinate Inspirations


Ah its time of the month again~
Here are my coordinate inspirations for this month taken from Egg & Kera's February issue:

Egg~

I like the plaid pants and how it fits, looks very relaxed. Im actually looking for pants like this for some weeks now ever since I saw shop staffs from Artwork wearing same style pants.
And it seems like animal print/fur clothing is still in this February, though I can smell summer nearing! I hope before this season ends I can get my hands on animal print jacket (≡^∇^≡)

Kera feb~

I've skipped some issues from Kera and Im just happy to finally get a copy of their latest issue. I think Kera's still my fave mag~ I find their style more 'wow' than gal, though I'm sure gals can pull these coordinates too. It's just a matter of how you carry and deliver it to your audience, I guess.
I like the 2tone tights and blue animal print doc martens from the 1st photo (left),
and the top and skirt from the 2nd pic,
and as of the 3rd, I need more pastel and statement pieces heehee.
The 4th pic, I think is my most fave since I like what she's wearing from head to toe. The hat, leather jacket, jumpsuit pants and those lovely shoes, reminds me so much of my ES skate shoes before.


I think it may take a while to find pieces similar to what I posted above, since I have very limited options and I have things to settle first so that I can breathe and sleep peacefully every night. Haha! ~

Darkness False eyelashes

Darkness Falsies for P125/$2+

This Darkness lashes are very different from the ones I use to buy. Way dramatic and gives really good volume.I used this on my previous posts:

• Gyaru Make-up Update! 
• Mhaiko's Birthday Celebration.

These lashes catered to me as bottom falsies too! I cut a small portion from ends and didn't even trimmed them.
I think I bought 3 of this type already. Hoarding falsies because the store has very limited stocks and they're not very particular with types of lashes they sell, so I can't rely on them on re-stocking this one. So far this is the best lashes I snagged until I bought this:

Japanese Brand False eyelashes P100/$2

I can't read what brand but WOW. They are hella good and hella loooong! Not obvious just by looking at them but when applied its really fanned out, I had to remove and re-apply them just to make sure! This is my fave but unfortunately this is the only one.
Packaging kinda looks like DUP eyelashes.

The only thing is this lashes is too soft and fragile. Sometimes I'm scared to wipe them off with make-up remover wipes. But I really like how they look on me though.

When put on

Today I decided to use both falsies. Top lashes: J.brand Bottom: Darkness lashes. Over all, I liked the result and maybe use this combination more often! Here are other pics from today:

thanks for reading!!!!

a sudden fun-shoot/trial shoot

Because it was all too sudden I haven't manage to do my hair and experiment more on make-up. But anyway, I'm still happy about the results. This is waaaayy better than our previous shoot (last august). He was asking for a Jrock theme but I failed to deliver it. FUUUU I wish I was given enough time to prepare and organize.

pp:  Yapo!

Gyaru make-up update! and fairy kei pics

I thought I'd update on how I do my make-up since I still get a fair amount of views about my gyaru make-up attempt. I just tried putting on bottom falsies, but arrrghhh just can seem to get it right! but anyway! Im compiling my progress so I have no choice but to show you guys! deal with it! this isn't much but I hope I'm getting somewhere..

As usual, critics and helpful suggestion are super uver appreciated. I'd also want to take this opportunity to upload some photos I haven't uploaded here. I tried a lil fairy kei approach, since it also my type of stuff.

I even had to research on youtube how to wear a scarf!! This is my first time! I posted this already on tumblr but just for the sake of compilation, I have to put it here too.Sorry this post is just full of me. I believe there'll be more coz of pending photoshoots. I bet most of it won't push through. LOL. 

on another note, I'm very happy I start discovering fellow filipina gyarus in PH too! But since PH is also victims of KPOP epidemic (Kpop's not my thing!) some... okay... SOME.... are I think trying to mix kpop and gyaru as one. I shat bricks!!!!!  OMGGGG. I think there should be a clear explanation to this! I'm no expert on gyaru and kpop so I hope someone can help me? 

You know what made my week? Winning from a giveaway! Although I didn't technically win, I feel so blessed to still have a gift from Patuti! This is my first Liz liza dress and I can't express how excited I am !!! I can never say enough thanks! this is very magical!

Mhaiko's birthday celebration! Enchanted Kingdom

A couple of weeks back I was browsing my facebook notifications when suddenly Mhaiko pop up in my chat box to invite me to her birthday! Of course I said yes! I've only met her once and I wanted to know her more before she goes back to Japan.~

Birthday celebrant Mhaiko and her sweetie, Linus~

Jemz!

Mhaiko's bff! I would often see her wall posts at Mhaiko's FB and she's really sweet, even in person she's still   sweet and I admire her for that ^_^~ Maybe coz I dont have much sweet friends of my own. (most of em are boys!)

Khaori and Miko,cute couple!

Khaori is Mhaiko's elder sister, she's very pretty and I love her make-up! I thought she was kinda snob but she would always smile at me whenever I look at her. Sweet. :3

obligatory couple shot~ <3

Us waiting for our turn in Space Shuttle Max

My first time to ride a roller coaster! Im really afraid of them, looking from afar it looks damn dangerous! But of course I enjoyed it too though its as if my soul is drifting 5 inches away from me every time we turn upside down and fall at great speed haha!

With Rocky, The Bloomfields' drummer after their mini performance at the lounge

The bloomfields is sort of popular here in PH and we're lucky to see them perform from the front row! They even greeted us and danced on our table OMG! They referred to us as cosplayers. O.o (Jemz is a certified cosplayer so that applies to her ^^)

Girls! My hair is a mess >.<

Last photo we took before we ride the flying fiesta

There are lot more photos on Mhaiko's page I, only took ones that me and Bry were in because we arrived late ~ Being able to celebrate her bday is a new experience for me, cuz I don't usually go out to theme parks with people I barely know but they've been very kind, warm and super friendly! I hope this is not the last though!! Would love to hang out with them again!

Latest buys

just a short post of some buys. I spent my savings this month and also the money I got from generous relatives <3 and now Im broke--as ever.

January is way colder than December this time so I bought things that'll help me warm up!

Bryan even ordered me another faux fur jacket at sparkleshop, it was his christmas gift to me according to him lol.

BTW these buys are my latest but not necessarily recent. I was in no mood to blog when I bought them.

2 scarves from Khush. Very cozy! Lavender and pink. Pastel colors makes me look more young-i guess. Just in time for this year, I will turn 20 and maybe wrinkles will start to attack me. 

Lacey skirt from Y.R.Y.S. that shop is very Japanese. They seem to follow trends in Japan with cheaper prices. I finished watching kuragehime anime series last week and is very inspired of the story, dreaming big and making it happen is what I suppose the series are trying to teach me. That is very relevant to this skirt because this skirt is very lacey and reminds me of JELLYFISH. and Kurage means jellyfish. pls agree. orz

2 shirts from Robinson Dept. Store which is very cheap and cute~ nothing much to be said here.

Leg warmers from Y.R.Y.S. ~ I can't believe I can get these here. So excited to wear them out!

 Last sunday, was Mhaiko's birthday and I was lucky enough to be invited to celebrate it with her and her friends at Enchanted Kingdom. Of course, I brought Bryan~ It was very happy experience and maybe blog about it on another post~

HOW TO: Droopy nails

I've collected many request asking how I did my nails from the last Etude House nail art contest. So today, I have a little "how-to" for all of you who asked!
Level of difficulty: EASY PEASY! I'm a beginner too, you just have to be patient and practice more if you didn't make it the first attempt.!
This works well with long and short nails. I have short nails myself. This works best with contrasting colors of nail polish~
Let us start!

Step 1: Clean nails! We don't want to do our nails dirty, right?

Step 2: Apply base coat, I have very weak nails, they easily get torn so I use Sally Hansen's nail strengthener. I applied at least 2 coats. Make sure they are dry before doing step 3.

 Step 3: Apply your nail polish of choice! Here, Im using TFS in GR503.

Okay, now is time to show you guys how to make drops, very simple, you just wait for the nail polish to create a small drop clinging from the brush and gently put above your nail without losing the circle/roundness. It'll flat itself when drying, that's why its kinda time consuming to do this. Im using Orly in Bon Bon~
TIP: to make them dry faster, soak your hand in cold water!

Ah there, I told you, it should look something like this~

 Repeat the previous step until you finished the whole nail. Then do the rest of your hands!

Lastly step 6: Don't forget to apply finishing touches, top coat. or you can add stickers and polka dots to make it more interesting! I hope this helped!

I updated my pages esp the about page, so if you have time kindly visit them~
