Travel Log: Tokyo Day 2. Epic sakura.

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

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

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?

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.

My love affair with Dior girly.

Posted June 16th, 2007 by minicloud

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.

dior girly pink ad

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.
dior_girly_reporter_bag.jpg

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. :P
