Brithday outing, recent gets and BIG NEWS! *(*´∀｀*)☆

 

Hey everyone! How’s everyone enjoying this changing fall season?
I for one am a little excited about fall…I love wearing big sweaters and scarves, yummy pumpkin lattes, fall colors, hot tea and cider…it’s slowly becoming one of my favorite seasons.
And the best part is that I’ll finally get to start looking for cute fall and winter clothes! (●´∀｀●)

I wanted to blog about an outing I had a few Saturdays ago for my friend Brittany’s birthday.
This is a very late entry, but better late than never right? :D

I went for a glamorous hime look.

Head piece: Handmade by Rose Chan

Earrings: Curvys

Dress: D.E.B

Leggings: Target

Boots: Yumetenbo
Purse: Coquettish Tiara

I love how the bow complimented the outfit!

I got Brittany a cute pair of earrings from curvy’s as a gift:

The top pair is hers and the bottom is mine.
I was so happy she liked them! ♡

We headed out to her favorite restaurant, Mongolian grill.

This was my first time going there, and I really liked how the restaurant was set up. It was all you can eat and there were sooo many great options to choose from! You just put your favorite stir fry mixture in a bowl and they grill it right in front of you.

I got beef noodles with cilantro, bean sprouts, onions, Mongolian bbq sauce, cabbage and a bunch of other things I can’t even remember! (I kind of went crazy lol):

It was really good and I was super impressed!
Later we headed out to the mall to do a little shopping and browsing around.


I love all the cross print that’s been out lately!

We went to forever21 and I found the cutest floral hime-ish brush set for only $4!


I was shocked that Brittany hadn’t been to the bubble tea place there so I quickly introduced her:

She got the really huge coffee one and I got banana flavor! Soo good~ ♡

I had a great time celebrating my bestie’s birthday.  I REALLY wanna slap myself for not getting a picture because she looked amazing(ノД`)・゜・。  but there will be other times! Only one more year til we get drunk! Lmao
 (*｀▽´)_旦~~

I also was able to splurge a little on a few things after reeeaaally long dry spell of my money simply going to bills only, which felt really good!
I got a la pafait bolero from the gyaru sales group on facebook for only $20!:

It’s actually quite warm!  I absolutely love it and I’ve already got BIG plans for it!  ♡

Cute bear chain for my phone:

Some etude house cosmetic items (won them for only $3 even on ebay free shipping!):

 

Cute bow sweater from dreamv:

cute bow on the back too^^



Leg warmers and shoes from Dreamv:

 

 Back:

 

These items were quite warm as well! Began sweating just after trying them on lol

Cute bunny tights:

 They have a cute little bunny tail on the back! Σ(・ω・`|||)

I was also able to pick up a couple of my favorite strawberry flavored snacks as well as a copy of November’s Koakuma Ageha!:

This issue comes with a free Liz Lisa make-up/pencil case.  ♡
The make up in this issue is amazing, so much inspo that I’ll be using for the upcoming months *(*´∀｀*)☆
It felt good to do a little bit of shopping ^_^


And lastly everyone…I have REEEEALLLY BIG NEWS!
So first off….I have some really good news and I also have some kinda bad news as well.
BUT I try to stay optimistic lol…so I’ll begin with the good news first, which is…….

I’ll be starting school this upcoming January!!
＼(^▽^＠)ノ
I’m SO excited to finally be starting this next chapter of my life! For those who know me, you know I’ve gone back and forth for years trying to figure out what I wanted to do for a career ( going from being a cosmetologist to a flight attendant, from psychology to nail design and even a paralegal 0.o) and I’ve finally found out what it is, which is baking and cooking. :D

I’ll be attending Milwaukee Area Technical College (MATC) in January 2014 studying to get an associates degree in baking and pastry arts. When I graduate, I will be certified as a pastry chef! :D
I look forward to getting back into the college lifestyle. Of course there are some things I’m not looking forward to (like math, exams, essays, presentations, annoying people and group work T__T) but I’m really hopeful about this experience as a whole. I ask that you all please wish me the very best of luck….I wont give up and I’ll definitely do my best! ♡

And now for the kinda sorta bad news.

Recent gets and Birthday outing!°˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

Hey everyone! How are you all? I hope everyone's enjoying this hot summer!(＾▽＾)
It's been so long since I've been able to blog about anything...life has been a little hectic honestly.

But I wanted to do a quick update about my birthday back in June and some recent splurges.

June 19th  was my birthday!゜ﾟ･*☆

For this day I really wanted to look my absolute best, so I did a nice himekaji co-ord.

Dress: Target (It's actually a mint color^^)
Shoes: Target (sparkly gold color)

This mint dress is absolutely beautiful!♥

I designed a set of nails for me to wear as well:

And added a really posh looking bag lol

It was quite humid =S

My family and I went to a restaurant called cubanitos.

Its a cuban restaurant and bar located on Milwaukeee's east side. ^.^

Loved the decor! 

 
My sister and my mom^^

My panda and I!(◕ω◕✿)

 Ate this yummy beef and cheese empenada...it was probably the best thing on the menu to be honest.

 
I also had this fantastic strawberry mojito! Okay maybe this was the best thing on the menu! ahaha :p

 ^This is shredded beef in authentic cuban sauce with black beans and spanish rice.
It was a little mediocre, but I still liked it.

 Fried plantains :3

Caramel flan for me!♥

And then I recieved a few gifts from friends who couldn't make it to celebrate later that evening <3 Thank you Ashley and Brittany! I love you guys sooo much.（＾ｖ＾）

All in all I had a great time! Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate or wished me a happy birthday! 

I also was able to splurge a little and buy some cute items!(ﾉ◕ω◕)ﾉ

I was finally able to buy circle lenses!

I decided to go with something bold and try I.fairy Ash green.

I got them from lensvilage.com, and I absolutely LOVE them!

I haven't been able to wear them very often, as my hyperthyroidism has caused bulging and swelling in my eyes which make wearing the lenses a little uncomfortable. :(

But hopefully my eyes will get better a.s.a.p! (^_~)

I've also been purchasing some items from the gyaru sales group on facebook.

I've gotten some really good used items for very cheap prices and great sellers!

I got a gorgeous Liz Lisa skirt from Gen Ishihara:

It was a great first time experience buying there! :D

I got this foxtail from a seller named Kristin Magallanes  :

It's soft and really good quality handmade..the seller had excellent communication as well <3

Got this handmade hime deco bag charm from サンドラ虞来富:

Very cute and didnt even know it was handmade! She also had super fast shipping and it arrived on my birthday!

 I got cute minnie mouse hat from Shellei Bones  :

Its very fluffy and was in great condition! Also the seller was really really nice ^_^

and i got cute handmade hime bows from Princess Rose (She also goes by Rose Chan) :

Got the one on the bottom^^

Got the one on the top!^^

She makes the prettiest hime items and has AMAZING prices. I think she is on a selling hiatus right now, but if you order just be sure to pay for fastest shipping. I ran into some issues with the postal service which had me a little nervous as a first time buyer, but she really worked with me and my items arrived in great condition so no worries! lol


Also was able to get this liz lisa top from a seller named Gorgeous Barbie which should be coming within the next couple of days!

It's used as well and I'm really excited to see how it looks on me!

Well that's all for this entry! I am probably going to post another today just to keep everyone updated.

Stay tuned everyone!
