Happy Valentine + popteen and floral things

Valentine Cupcakes



Happy Valentine! <3


Today has been such a good day for me -though it began a little badly... I almost missed an important listening test at school because my bus didn`t arrive but I ended up taking taxi with a lady who was also in a hurry (she happened to be a teacher who had to get to her school because they were having the same "national" test there) and everything turned out well. : )

In January I ordered quite many things from different online stores and finally some of them arrived! : >

Recently I have been excited about Japanese fashion magazine Popteen, that I have read via some livejournals and at last I decided to order 2 magazines from Ebay.



It is so much fun to look at all those pretty pictures -although I don`t understand a word, haha. :) I just like how the whole magazine is full of nice pictures and the models are really cute. The Popteen magazines have a lot of make-up tutorials and all kind of inspiring fashion shoots.


My 17-year-old brother wasn`t very impressed when he saw the magazines... :D He found their look rather disturbing but in fact I am not surprised: most of the models are wearing false eyelashes, circle lenses, hair extensions etc.



What about me then, well I think that I wouldn`t want to wear "proper" gyaru make-up daily because it could be hard to be without all those "beauty-things" after getting used to them +I think that more "natural look" is better for me. The gyaru-style looks like mostly pretty to me but I also love very natural kind of beauty so I think that I`ll mainly absorb some inspiration. : ) To be honest I even own circle lenses (I though that it would be interesting to see how I`d look) but I should buy the cleaning solution for them so I haven`t even tried them yet.

Some time ago I found lovely Cath Kidston via Molly`s blog and I fell in love! I have some kind of crazy obsession with all kind of floral prints and Cath Kidston has tons of pretty floral bags! <3 I had hard time while choosing what to order and at last I ordered this big "travelling bag"


(my bad photo makes it look like so grey...)

and this cute cosmetic case! They are both adorable but unfortunately I couldn`t get any good photos of them. : <

Their whole store is full of everything lovely, aaa, I think that next time I`ll have to order another bag and their cute bath cap... ;)

  2. Ohh those cakes are so cute! Cath Kidston is quite big here in England! People are always trying to copy her 'roses' flower design, but I think it's best if you get an original. The bag is really nice! I have some little Cath Kidston moisturisers myself, but they smell a little too flowery for my taste and my skin's kinda sensitive so it can't really handle the perfume in it. They're very pretty though!

    Molly: Thanks, I loved the picture so I wanted to share it with you. ; ) And I see, I hadn`t even heard about it before but I can believe! And it is kind of silly when you come across with obvious copies of some "trade stuff", errh money seems to be so important... ^^' And those moisturisers sound cool too, I wish I could just order their whole production! maybe little by little... >: D
    dEJOISS: aww thank you! :>
    Sophie: thank you, I am so glad that I ordered it *o*

  6. I love reading through magazines like popteen too! They're so sparkly aren't they? ●´ω`●
    Ahhh! Cath Kidston! You're so lucky! That pattern on the travelling bag is one of my favourites!

  7. Cath: Yay, you too! all the pictures in Popteen have super pretty colours and they are sparkly indeed :---)
    aww I lost my heart for that pattern too (plus turquoise/some kind of mint blue have been my favourite colour since nursery school..!) and I want their all flower bags :''o
