Outfit Post + Bunka Love

Just a quick, comfy outfit for the second day of school.
 Rundown
Shirt: Mom's
Skirt: From a Japanese thrift store.
Collar: From my Lowry's blouse (it's detachable, yay!)
Shoes (once I put some on...)  Lace Rocket Dogs

I'm sorry there hasn't been more variety to my outfits lately, it's just been too hot. Today in face was 105 degrees Fahrenheit with a heat index of 110 (which is what it actually felt like). (TAT)

I recently bought this cute Bunka doll clip/brooch from LemonTree11.
Her online picture did not do it justice! She is circus themed, how cute!  ^o^


I love cute notes ♥
Thanks for looking!

Outfit Post + Shopping + Food

Hi everyone ♪ I recently bought this cute blouse from Alpacalover. It's so cute and the collar is detachable via a small button on the blouse! I have never seen this on a shirt before. The Japanese are so thoughtful ;A; She even included a cute little frog key chain and sweet letter with my shirt :3 She also suggested I post a coordinate and that sounded like a darn good idea to me! I also got a haircut (side bangs!!) and gave my eyebrows a new shape. How does it look?


Rundown
Blouse: Lepsim Lowrys Farm
Skirt: Lowrys Farm
Belt: Thrifted 
Bag: From a recycle shop in Japan (the rose is handmade)
Jewelry: Pearls, gold Betsey Johnson sunhat earrings & a gold tennis bracelet
Socks/shoes: Target (Xhilleration)

I wore these shoes when I went out ^_^;;
How about with a hat? (from a Japanese Claire's)

Bonus: Make-up shot~
 My boyfriend and I also spent our last day together before he goes to college (and celebrated my birthday a bit early) at a cute historic cafe. 

Yummy watermelon lemonade ♪

My squash pesto pizza!

I am going to miss him so much :(
 That's all for now~

More Vacation Photos

Sorry for the vacation photo bombarding, but I got my film developed from the trip as well (plus the one day we had snow and from a theme park with my boyfriend). The film camera (a Minolta) if pretty old (from the 1970's) and I'm not very skilled with film photography, but it's fun to experiment ♪














Me and my sweetie ♥

Scrapbooking Practice

I took some advice I recieved on what to do with my small collection of postage stamps and started a small scrapbook! I thought it was a good way to put small trinkets and scraps of paper that I had been holding onto to good use. I purchased the book at a home goods store (blank craft paper). I took advantage of my small stamp collection, as well as ribbons, deco tape, doilies, stickers, coins, polaroids, lace and other pretty bits (oh and a bit of doodling, I can draw better than this I swear, I just wanted it to look a bit whimsical). Here is what I have done so far. I think it has a nice vintage feel ♪♫♪













Bonus: a cute handmade chick strap I bought at a Thai restaurant. Cheep~
