An awesome amount of old cameras and toy cameras make my day~!

The polaroid back was out of stock and I ended up having to buy the Holga champion kit.
it consists of:

  • Fisheye for Holga
  • Fisheye holder attachment
  • Holga effect kit which includes 11 filters

Travel Log: Tokyo Sakura Day 1

Posted March 26th, 2008 by minicloud

Plane ride was uneventful, so don’t expect any reports on that.

Immigrations was a pain to clear. It took me more than an hour to clear it and collect my luggage. After that it was smooth sailing, from buying train tickets to Tokyo and finding my way to the awesome apartment that I’m staying in.

I’m staying in Kodenmacho, a station near Akihabara on the Hibiya line. In this apartment block called Stylim.

It’s an award winning apartment and everything inside just screams “DESIGNER~!!!”
stylim01.jpg

They put so much attention into the equipment and fittings. The toilet seats that are installed have heater function.
The kitchen space is small but functional and useful for just one or two person staying there.
stylim02.jpg

The entrance area’s light is activated by a motion sensor and the pendant lamps in the apartment are made to slide around so that you can achieve different lighting effects.

The toilet heater has an announcement function when you change the temperature.
stylim03.jpg

And i stole this photo from zer0. LOL…
tokyo01-01.jpg

Isn’t it freaking awesome???

So after being super awed by the apartment, zemotion and I set out for Harajuku. I bought a whole bunch of Swimmer stuff which came up to about 8000yen. D:

dsc02184.JPG

Yes I know that’s alot of bento boxes, but they’re not all for myself.

This was yesterday’s lunch.
Beef stew omelette rice from Jonathan’s.
dsc02159.JPG

I forgot to add that there was a h00j mob in Harajuku near the entrance of Takeshita dori. I think alot of people were stampede-ed to death yesterday.

We then went to Shinjuku and I went crazy.
I bought all these.
Moitie blouse and choker, Excentrique underbust corset~!
dsc02189.JPG

I almost bought everything that I wanted to on the first day.
But I still can’t find the polaroid back for my Holga.
Ideas anyone?

Lolita purchases again.

Posted November 6th, 2007 by minicloud


an obligatory “box photo”. My mum’s bed. bedsheet patterns are teh sux.


I was a little disappointed with this as there was alot of pilling. :/


This is off brand, but i like it much better. And yes, I am in a musical note phase.


MA OP


MA JSK


MA Headdress. When i get things, they must come in a set. I remember when someone outbidded me in this and I got soooo pissed. This corsage is MASSIVE.


Pocket jsk. I wanted this sooooo baddddddd. I paid an obscene amount for it. okay… i exaggerate… but definately more than retail price.


Hawase. I have this in pink. and i decided i wanted it in white as well. I’m regretting it now actually.


Neko OP from Angelic Pretty. I love this so much. I was pleasantly surprised to know that the material is jersey and very comfortable to wear. Unfortunately, it was kinda swimming on me.


Btssb shirring of death blouse. Not too excited about it. the shirring barely stretched when i put it on. basically it’s shapeless on me now.


btssb choker. the jewel is really sparkly~!


another one in black. I have double colour syndrome. I need everything in 2 colours.


btssb pearl choker. This is such a gem to have. I am in love.


Btssb madelaine shoes. My second favourite shoes.


Btssb pearl chandelier shoes. My favorite shoes.


last but not least, the jsk i paid an arm and a leg for.

H00j wardrobe post.

Posted September 1st, 2007 by minicloud

So all the stuff that I ordered finally arrived a few days ago.

I was estatic when I received the package. I was ripping everything off, it’s like a lucky pack that has all the awesome stuff except you already know what’s inside it.

Please excuse the lousy pictures.

First up~ The pink stuff.


This is a lovely cardigan from baby. It’s no longer in production and I love it to bits.


Next up, pink sleeve stoppers from baby~


My lovely Hawase headdress


Which needs a dress to go with. the Hawase OP is really a beauty, it’s much much more beautiful in real life. I’m considering getting a white one.

Then comes the black stuff.

Baby headdress.


Baby cardigan which i love MORE than the pink one. they’re still selling this. and the cut is just amazing. It fits in all the right places.

Then comes the Mary Magdalene stuff

Stupid tag was in the way, I didn’t notice until I photographed it.

And my Favorite item of the pack. I will never sell this. And I nearly cried when I saw this. It is just so so so beautiful.

It is so beautiful it’s pwnage. Certainly pwned my ass.

Lolita around the world: Paris

Posted August 2nd, 2007 by minicloud

Firstly, let me just say a big thanks to Jeanne, Julie, Gabrielle, Caroline and Lucie for making this meet possible. You have made my stay in Paris absolutely wonderful.

Paris is the first stop for my personal project, “Loli around the world”. As some of you might have already know, I am starting this project to meet lolitas all over the world and the Paris meet has been really really successful.

I first met up with Julie and Jeanne for lunch at the nice japanese restaurant in Bastille. I didn’t have any pictures of our food or us eating though.

And what is a loli meet in Paris without going to Baby, the stars shine bright?
paris310707_01.jpg
The store front~!! *squeals* And we all know wad “soldes” means~ :3

The interior

More photos inside.

paris310707_04.jpg
I spot something I want badly~! DX

paris310707_05.jpg
Prettiness~!!

paris310707_06.jpg
Julie, Jeanne and the lovely salesperson in Baby~

There was this Marie Antionette One-piece that I loved so much~ I would’ve bought it straightaway if it was in pink, although the red one was also lovely. I couldn’t resist trying it on.
paris310707_07.jpg
excuse the messy hair

paris310707_08.jpg
In my own clothes, photowhoring and babywhoring.

Gabrielle and Caroline joined us later in the store. :D
On a side note, there was another male salesperson there and he treated us to some strawberry yogurt drink. That was very sweet of him.

We headed to Starbucks later for a drink.
paris310707_09.jpg
Julie and Gabrielle posing with their gifts~!!
Yes~!! I made little crowns for everyone for being so kind. I hope they like it~

paris310707_12.jpg
Caroline with her crown, she has double eyelids and brown eyes to die for~

We headed down to Harajuku, where we met Lucie there. She was in a beautiful gingham dress which she loli-fied herself. There was like 4m worth of lace on the dress.
Unfortunately for me, Harajuku was closed. T___T
We headed to Boddywood instead. And I bought the skirt that Julie was wearing cause I loved it so much. It was more expensive definately but it was also on 30% sale so it eases the pain a little bit.

We headed down to alot more places after that; Junku (the Japanese bookstore), Galleries LaFayette (for Hello Kitty stuff).

paris310707_11.jpg
we took a group photo but it’s without Lucie~!! DX someone had to be the photographer.

And last photo for the post~!
paris310707_10.jpg
Thank you my lovely Parisian lolitas for being so kind to me. I certainly hope to meet everyone again. :)

Some other random things

  • Parisians do stare at people wearing lolita, but they mean no harm.
  • Some of them walk by and say comments like “princess”, “lovely”, “cute”. We even had sales person saying “kawaii” to us when we were walking around in Galleries Lafayette.
  • Random people can just strike up conversations with us by the way they dress which I think is amazing because in Singapore everyone just stares.
  • Lolita shoes are not made for cobberstone pavements.
  • Long-sleeved cutsews are too hot for summer.
  • It is very expensive to be a lolita in Europe
  • There’s only a small number of lolitas in Paris itself. But Baby store’s items are sold out very quickly cause of regular patronage and tourists.

That’s it for my Paris report~!! I hope you guys enjoy reading it as much as I’ve enjoyed myself there.

Posted July 15th, 2007 by minicloud

Sneaky japanese starting to bid for the auction that I was eyeing for 10mins before it closes.

But oh yeah, I was there to see it happen. Betcha think I was complacent, thinking no one would bid for it no? IN YOUR FACE~!!!

And after contesting for 20 or so minutes, I emerge victorious with this~!!!

Lolita rant again.

Posted July 13th, 2007 by minicloud

mm_headdress.jpg

My Mary Magdalene headdress finally came in the mail~!!!!

And I think it’s a bloody conspiracy that 2 blouses decided to be auctioned at the same time.

I’m stalking auctions like nobody’s business. I think I’m obsessed. But I want those items dammit.

I had caviar for lunch today *random* and certain people from a certain country pissed me off today.

I NEED TO STOP STALKING AUCTIONS OH GOD SHANNEN I’M TURNING INTO YOU~!!!!!! D: LOL~!

Travel loot: Tokyo, Japan part 2

Posted June 26th, 2007 by minicloud

Sigh… I was only contemplating the all black jumperskirt on Sunday…

And I went out and bought all these in 2 days. T___T

The major pwnage is the Vivienne Westwood bag that was love at first sight~! T___T SHOULDN’T HAVE GONE TO OIONE CITY~!!!

tokyo_loot_day3.jpg

Here’s the damage:

  1. Baby the Stars Shine Bright Black Jumperskirt
  2. Baby the Stars Shine Bright White Cutsew
  3. Baby the Stars Shine Bright White Parasol
  4. Angelic Pretty White Headdress
  5. Putomayo Pocket watch
  6. Vivienne Westwood Black leather bag

I saw this caucasian girl in OIONE who was really funny. She was speaking spanish if I’m not wrong and she was practically hyperventilating when she saw Baby the Stars Shine Bright. I was standing around paying for my shoe clips and parasol when she did that. I found it extremely amusing thinking back at the first time where I, myself was standing there staring at H.naoto. I must’ve looked really funny to other people then too.
