while on my shopping adventures

 my oldest sister's favourite brand of makeup, mac, was having a cute little promotion for their new series: archie's girls. it's inspired by the comic books - which i've never even heard of. in fact, i wasn't even that interested in the new cosmetics, until this charismatic archie asked for a photo~!! even if he was paid to be, he was really friendly and happy for a chat~

 while shopping, i managed to take some outfit photos in the changerooms~ i wore the new dress i bought, which has a nice built in pannier for a cute shape! paired with my secret shop teaparties, i received some lovely comments from shopkeepers and bank tellers! (ps, look how long my hair has grown)

 

after a short bout of rain, the weather cooled down considerable, allowing me to wear over the knee socks and a thin cardigan! in summer?? i really welcomed the change though. on the topic of change, i recently got a haircut~ it was only a few inches off, but for me, it feels like my hair is much much shorter!! i also decided to cut my fringe - again! i'm just never comfortable with it swept to the side.

oh! i almost forgot~ i made a new instagram account, and i'm trying to use it too this time. are you on instagram? if you are, please follow me here: http://instagram.com/angiiichan (yup, with 3 'i's) i'm super new to it, and have only been posting photos from my trip. hopefully i'll fill it more with outfits and lolita sweet times as i go~!

 i'm off to uni next week - a busy busy fifth year but not even close to graduating!! (well, i've got two more years of studyi but i'll get three certificates at the end...)

the night continues, deer me!

i had another event i'd been planning an outfit for a long time~ my friend had secretly told me the theme of his 21st birthday party, and ever since i had been preparing my outfit. it was an animal theme, and i decided to go as a deer. because they are so cute and forest-like and i've always wanted to make a set of antlers. perfect reasons, right?

i decided on a mori style outfit with some handmade hair accessories. although i did attempt to look for fawn fur patterns everywhere i didn't manage to get anything on time. and once again i had to take the photos when i got home. late into the night. my older sister who was just reading in bed, helped me take some photos while experiementing and learning how to use our dslr camera. it seems only one person knows how to use it so far...

the smell of nail polish

 is making my head spin....

yes, i've been experimenting again, with a lovely

deep purple (with blue glitter) from my sister's

mac collection, and her most recent buy.

it's a lovely colourful glitter polish from opi.

what do you think? looks a little like the sweet

chocolate freckles i used to love...

this is a cute christmas touch in one of my
favourite cafes, chocolate bean. you would be
correct in thinking that they sell chocolate
(and nothing but chocolate, i might add)
i must admit that even i cannot handle their
death by chocolate cake. shock.

a little too excited

 for christmas, i think...

it's okay to celebrate early, right?
last night, we celebrated a happy christmas,
with happy snaps, bubble tea and dinner together!

unfortunately i was too excited about having korean barbeque
that i completely forgot to take photos of food.
but, it was a really fun experience, and the sudden cool
change almost made up for the lack of snow this winter~

i even decided to paint my nails to match the festive theme~
my older sister is very fond of experimenting with colours
and brands, so i borrowed her polishes. the red is an opi,
green is a butter london and the gold is mac. it's so helpful
that she has such a range of colours, and perfect ones
for christmas~

outfit snap #57: all i want for christmas
- red military jumper
- mustard yellow scarf
- green mini skirt
- black tights from offbrand
- melty chocolate bag from angelic pretty

what happened to my santa hats?!

signed sealed delivered

a little something arrived for me recently! hello there~

in a cute little box filled with foam... wrapped in sparkly 

purple paper... ta da~!

even though this is an old mac collection (a tartan tale)
includes: the tartan zip pocket, gel eyeliner, brush, mascara,
and a super glitter pigment.

i couldn't resist the terrible low price! not to mention, i'd seen my
sister fork out almost twice as much for the same thing
(only she did obtain it when it was first released)
i can't complain though! i really just wanted the gel eyeliner~
after borrowing my sister's for only too long, i realised
it was time to get my own.

now, just waiting on a couple more parcels...
