Dammit. I bought the most random stuff in San Francisco.

From clocks to cameras to shampoo and makeup.

another completely random note, I LOVE URBAN OUTFITTERS. They have the coolest stuff on earth.

And also, I’m severely jetlagged cos it’s 220am and I’m still awake.

ok~ on to pics~!

Random Puma store. trying out the fisheye lens for my mobile phone. i wish my lens were flat so the fisheye wld adhere properly.

Apple store~!!!
I finally got my ipod upgraded~

That green rim is from the fisheye. It wouldn’t adhere properly.

Food from cheesecake factory. It tastes better than it photographs.

Clock that I bought from UO.

Diana+ Edelweiss camera from lomography~!
I have 5 toy cameras so far~!!!

TINNNNNY babyliss flat iron. awesome for traveling.

I also bought a dress from american eagles which I’m too lazy to photograph and some makeup brushes from Sephora and 2 eyeshadows from Nars which looks just freaking awesome I had to buy them even though I’m a MAC fan.

That’s it for loots. Heading to Seoul tomorrow. Hopefully I get to go to Rose Chocolat.

I missed out Day 4 cos all i did was walked around, got hit by a sudden headache and slpt almost the whole day away.

Anyway,It was really cold today cos it was raining.

Free Mc Donald’s coffee made my day.

It was off to Harajuku agaiTn.

And was greeted by Hangry and Angry~!!

Naoto is having an event today~Cute sales people are cute~!!

My mission for the day is to find a polaroid back for my Holga~!
And the destination~!

an obscure store with a tiny sign.

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:

• Holga 120GCFN
• Polaroid back
• 35mm film back
• Fisheye for Holga
• Fisheye holder attachment
• Holga effect kit which includes 11 filters
• 35mm 120 and polaroid films
• Holga phone strap

Awesome amount of nonsense which costs me a grand total of 39,900yen T___T
I am so broke.

But yes you are the King indeed.

The other toy camera at the bottom is the Golden Half by SuperHeadz.
and i also bought the flash for it.

It’s supposed to take photos like this.

And I phailz epic at taking polaroids.
I’m totally not used to the fact that I have to use flash.

Dinner is Okonomiyaki~!!!

Shannen and I met up today to walk around.

Shot for the day.
I love love love love the corset. but it’s such a pain to wear.

Shannen and myself in Mos burgers at almost sundown, realising that we still didn’t have photos of each other.

Dinner today is at First Kitchen. The best fries in the world are served here.

Mille noir underbust corset which I saw in Nagoya~ I got it for 8,800yen. CHEAP~!!!
Moitie jacket with bat wing pocket flaps.
Naoto blood long skirt.
Sumi skirt
Victorian Maiden bolero.

And a ridiculous amount of hair rollers from Daiso.

Teaser shots for the day.taken by zemotion

I retired really early on day 1 cos I didn’t sleep on the plane the day before.

Anyway, woke up early to prepare for the an epic photoshoot. I think my hair took 1.5hrs to do.

I feel like a genius.

I applied for my leave last Sept and I was just guessing the dates when the sakuras would bloom in Tokyo. And guess wad? The day before I arrived, they started blooming.

My timing is impeccable.
And i heard it’s going to rain tomorrow and all the flowers would fall off. Isn’t the timing just awesome??????
Kami-sama watches over me~!!! *w*

And zer0 and I really have to thank Chris for helping us with everything. From taking us around, to carrying stuff for us and translating.

At one point of time when I was dressing up with the kimono, we had to ask for help and these 2 middle-aged women came and help us with the kimono. I was basically dressed in 5mins, obi and all.
;_; They are so kind.

And along the way there were other middle-aged BFFs who adjusted my obi and kimono. it’s like changing stylists every 15mins. Awesome shit.

We headed to Nippori in hope of finding awesome Japanese parasols for another shoot but no avail… so we headed to Asakusa instead.

That place is like Kyoto in Tokyo.
*w*
okay maybe not… cos I’ve never been there. But it is what I wld’ve imagined it to be. Huge temple. Big red lantern and rows of shops selling traditional japanese wares.

Anyway, I was being dumb by bringing out only my cash and forgot all about my credit card cos I thought I was just going out for a photoshoot. -_-;;;

But I spent a great deal of moolah at Asakusa.

Japanese Parasols

Kanzashi
These things are epically expensive but these pics do not do them justice~~

This was today’s dinner. Beef cubes at Pepper Lunch.

And that concludes day 2 when I’m sitting at the laptop still wearing my socks. XD

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~!!!”

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.

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.

And i stole this photo from zer0. LOL…

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:

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.

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~!

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?

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?

The store front~!! *squeals* And we all know wad “soldes” means~ :3

The interior

More photos inside.

I spot something I want badly~! DX

Prettiness~!!

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.

excuse the messy hair

In my own clothes, photowhoring and babywhoring.

Gabrielle and Caroline joined us later in the store.
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.

Julie and Gabrielle posing with their gifts~!!
Yes~!! I made little crowns for everyone for being so kind. I hope they like it~

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).

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

And last photo for the post~!

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.

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~!!!

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.

3 years ago when I was a poor struggling artist design student, I saw something so godly it made me think that John Galliano is a genius.

I was jealous of this girl. I wanna scream “bitch~!!!!” then tear her hair off, stab her and steal all her bags. Isn’t the boston bag lovely? *squeals*

But my fav bag is the Dior Girly reporter bag.

I’ve been angsting over this bag for the longest time and by the time I decided I had enough money everybody had gotten over it and no Dior stores would carry this bag anymore~

But my recent trip to Milan brought salvation. Actually, it was more of the train ride to the borders of Switzerland that brought it. I was shopping in this mall which houses several top designer brands like Dior, Prada, Gucci, Ferragamo, Valentino, Burberrys etc etc. And they sell past season items at discounted price.

I wasn’t gonna care that it’s backdated and that I’m not in-sync with the latest fashion. I love the Dior Girly collection and I absolutely love the reporter bag. >.<

I went to the mall with an open mind not expecting to buy anything and then this bag was sitting harmlessly on the shelf….and i was “=.= oh~ win already lor~”

Then came several minutes of angsting and shopping at a few other stores before I succumbed to it. Heck I’ve been wanting this bag forever, I wasn’t gonna let it being “out-of-fashion” destroy my love for it. XD

So here I am, hugging my favorite possession for now while my boyfriend thinks I’m crazy to spend this much on a bag when I could’ve gotten a PS3. :/

But they will never understand.

Here’s the loot from LA~!

1. Long sleeved top from Old navy. Thin material, not too hot and wearable in Singapore.
2. Victoria’s Secret underwear. 5 for USD25~!
3. Armani code perfume for my boy.
4. Smashbox O-Glow. When I read the product page on Sephora, I know i HAVE to get it. I’m such a blusher girl.
5. Urban decay’s Glitter eyeliner. Becos I like the bling~
6. Bourjois mobile lipgloss. There’s never too many things you hang on a mobile phone.
7. Abercombie & Fitch pink shorts. I’m wearing a children’s size 12 omfg. it’s like the second smallest size. Are they really that big?
8. Abercombie & Fitch pink slippers. Cos I dig slippers.
9. Coach wristlet, for clubbing etc etc

Obviously a very pink overdose.
