    love no shirushi






    BF Ruins top, SammyDress.com skirt* and lace booties*, Romwe tights*, Paris Kids hair clip*.
    Today's weather was sunny and perfect for taking photos.. so I thought I'd wear my pretty lace booties from SammyDress outside! They go especially well with my fluffy tulle skirt, which is also from SammyDress. This look is actually inspired by Yoshida Sumire, vocalist of the all-girl band Silent Siren and part of the HARAJUKU KAWAii!! roster. All her outfits are so cute and have a very 'fuwa-fuwa' feeling, especially the ones she wears for performances. When I saw this tulle skirt, I immediately thought of Sumire. Though as not to make the outfit look overly sweet, I wore a loose blue collared top and added my usual accessories. Do you like it? I don't wear much blue, and to tell you the truth, this is a bit different from what I usually wear, so I'm really curious to know what you guys think! ♥

    Manila International Book Fair + Tokyo Cafe


    What I wore: Snidel dress, Saizen socks, OASAP creepers*, Folded&Hung satchel.





    On September 13th, Thursday, we decided to drop by the Book Fair at SMX. While we were there, I asked Aian to take a photo of me in front of the huge ferris wheel by the sea. I don't like riding ferris wheels, but I had to take a photo because I like looking at them. The photo was extremely underexposed (taken against the light) which is why it's so grainy. I still like it though! I took photos of some books as well. Truthfully, these are actually the books that I wanted to buy but didn't have enough money for. (Because I already spent a lot ordering magazines and artbooks online.) I'm really poor, so I could only afford two at that time.. but to do that I had to borrow a bit from Aian still, ehe ;;




    After checking out the Book Fair, we headed to our usual go-to place for dinner, Tokyo Cafe! The food is always the same whenever we go, which is why we don't bother ordering other meals, haha! We're afraid of making wrong decisions when ordering, so we settle for whatever we've already tried that's good. It's the same for their matcha milkshake. It's milkier than my usual green tea frappe at Starbucks, which is why I like it so much. On the way, we spotted two very fat short-hair kitties inside a pet grooming station. They seem to be always there whenever we pass by.. maybe the owner's cats? They're super huge and really fat. So cute. I wanted to squish them.

    ClubCouture sweater*, Lowrys Farm skirt, Romwe tights*, Rainbowholic Shop platform sneakers* and hair accessory*.
    I'm pretty sure these shoes from Kaila's Rainbowholic Shop are now my new favorite, I'd wear them everyday if I could!! But I can't, so I'll just wear them every other day, ehe. The pretty mori kei hairclip I'm wearing is also from Kaila! She went out and chose it especially for me. So happy! I really should get to planning a trip to Tokyo one of these days.. I need to go there and give Kaila all of my hugs!!

    Visit Kaila's super cute and colorful rainbowholic blog here! She also offers a really neat shopping service where you can ask her to buy items for you from different J-fashion shops in Tokyo. How awesome is that?

    All these pretty Instagram photos are making me so very anxious to get a new iPhone.. but then again, it's more reasonable to just save up for a second-hand 5D Mark I. But having Instagram seems so nice....
