Some himekaji/romagyaru outfits, makeup & update

Hi everyone!!

So yesterday I was at work and got home very late, but for some reason I woke up very early this morning so after cleaning the apartment I decided to make a blog update with some outfits, makeup etc.

So here we go.

Outfit 1.

I don´t remember when this was taken, but I like the coord except for my hair which died when I opened the door :´(

The top is from Liz Lisa and it is really adorable!

The skirt is also from Liz Lisa. A friend of mine who lives in Tokyo at the moment bought it for me and to be honest I was surprised by the thick material. It´s supposed to be a summer skirt, but I personally think it´s a bit too warm for summer so it´s perfect for fall.

Bag: DreamV

Beret: Cubus

Necklace: gift 

Outfit 2.

This was actually quite recent. I went to visit a friend of mine who had just moved into a new apartment and I though I at least should show some respect by wearing something presentable.

Knit: Liz Lisa (this was actually my first ever Liz Lisa item and I would´t trade or sell it for anything in the world, it has a lot of sentimental value!)

Skirt: Liz Lisa

Tights: Lindex

Necklace: Gift from Keziah when she went to the meetup in the Netherlands (so sweet of her!)

...with coat on which is also from Liz Lisa (lol I´m such a LL maniac) yeah I changed my hairdo.

with my fashionista roomie!

On this day my makeup looked like this!

...and here is some other makeup pics!

My iPhone camera has super crappy resolution, but the one thing I like about it is that my makeup don´t disappear ( if you know what I mean).

So what else?

Well... for the past months I´ve been going to the gym a lot. I actually enjoy exercising and it helps me relieve a lot of stress. The result is that my legs have been more toned and I love it!!

So until next time!

Update in life

Hi everyone!

Once again I´ve neglected this blog and I´m sorry I´m not so sorry. 

Taking a break was really nice because at one point I simply felt I were obliged to update this blog regularly, even when no shit has happened. Either way if there are still people reading my blog..I´m very humble and grateful!

The stuff with school which has held me down is still not solved, but they haven´t contacted me yet and for now I´ll just live my life and stop worrying about it.

This post will be very picture heavy so if you feel like frilly clothes, floral and pink is not your thing then exit is at the far right.

On friday I had a date with my girl Ingvild. I´ve been stuck in my room lately trying to finish my obligatory essays and hand-ins for Uni, however staying locked-up in my room forever is not healthy at all so I met up with Ingvild. We ended up going to Burger King and having bubble tea!

I haven´t had bubble tea since my best friend left for Korea so it was really great!

I don´t know many that likes bubble tea : ´(

As for the hair this day I was inspired by Liz Lisa GAL Minami. 

I french braided the side (not very visible) and made soft curls. Minami always have perfect hair and is such a great inspiration!

After tea and burger, we went to her flat. Ingvild had just bought this new gel nail-kit so she helped me fixing my nails while I watched Mean Girls. I felt like a queen lol

I recently got a job as a waitress (really happy about that) so I´m not allowed to have fancy or long nails for work so I had to keep it short and simple, but they are super cute and I love them! The color is so adorable!

And here is what I wore on friday!

Dress: Ma*rs

Knit: H&M

Necklace: gift

Shoes: DreamV

I feel like I´m the only one who has in dress in pink. All the other Gal´s have it in white. Actually I was considering buying the white one, but the pink one is G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S so really glad I chose the right color!

Also a week ago I got this lovely Okarie birthday book and when I uploaded this on Instagram, she liked it!

I thought I was going to faint. I literally love Okarie more than I think I´ll love any man in this whole wide world so having her noticing me at was a life dream come true! 

Last but not least, my life is really stressful nowadays, but to be honest I like it. My work can become very hectic, but I love my co-workers. They are all so nice and we joke a lot which I think it´s important at a workplace. I also get quite nice with tips so I´ve bought some stuff recently.

New lenses in choco from the diamond serie. They don´t have the black timbal ring so I think they goes well with a more relaxed makeup-style!

 Ank Rouge 3rd anniversary stationary set.

Also bought Popteen and loads of Liz Lisa clothes!

I also got this furry Liz Lisa hat from Ingvild.

She used to be a great Liz Lisa gyaru long before I started to do the style myself (my inspiration), but now she is no longer gyaru and so I got this hat from her. I´m so tremendously in love with it and can´t thank her enough ;__; What do you think?

So that was some updates from my life! More to come hopefully, but now I gotta carry on with my essays!

So long sweeties!

Long time no see X Meetup in Liz Lisa

Hi everyone!

It´s been a really long time since last post. Meanwhile I have been sorting out some thoughts in my head and also worked a lot during the summer to keep myself busy. The case that keeps hunting me is still not solved so I can't promise any blogpost really soon. Only if I am in the mood.

However I wanted to do a real quick post before I went to bed this evening. It is about a meet-up I went to last sunday.

My friend Keziah took her time to arrange it (for the norwegian j-fashion community) so I though I should attend and I am glad I did. I had a great time and met friends again after a long holiday with work and being anti-social.

Anyway this is my hair and makeup for the meet-up:

It was really heavy rain that day and I know what happens to my hair when there is wind and rain so I didn't bother to curl it. I only did my fringe.

Here is what I wore:

Dress: Liz Lisa (Royal lady Neo retro british)

Necklace: gift

Bracelet: powerstones

Shoes: Bianco 

(apparently my camera decided that my wall was more interesting so it switched focus eh..)

We first went bowling and then went to eat pizza. Keziah went to the meet-up in the Netherlands this summer (arranged by Hyper gyarusa if I remember correct) and had bought me a lovely necklace back home. Oh my gosh ; - ; I had not expected that and it was so nice of her!

Me and her. I love her eye-makeup!

Another one. I look so dark here, but I think it is the light although I am pretty tan in real too 

:´) 

Eivind, Erlend, Keziah and me had to leave early to meet Ingvild so this is an attempt on a group photo. Oh well it is good enough I guess! I look so tiny lol

Hope this could make up for my two months absence if anyone missed me haha.

Have a nice evening!

GALs in town ☆

Haiii everyone!

Today was a good and sunny day! My plan was to down town and meet some friends and go shopping!

This is the look for the day! Outfit of the day is soooo last year, from now on it´s makeup of the day!

You may also have noticed that I re-dyed my hair dark purple again because it had faded!

Stole this picture from Kimii´s Instagram (avantcouture) and for once I look fine HAH

Agepoyo is pretty much last year, so SNIGELPOYO is the new shit. SNIGEL

Being very cute with awesome people! It´s almost like a GAL´s and shit mini version! (me, Eivind, Kimii, Daniel & Ingvild). Pity my bowling head need so much space....

I didn´t find much stuff to buy, in face I only bought a magazine and a brown liquid eyeliner. The reason why I´m buying a brown one is because:

TADAH! Ingvild bought these AMOYAMO x Eyemazing lashes, but she didn´t like them so I got them <3 I LOVE THEM. 

And also got the new EGG issue (Nemoyayo´s hair color is so perfect! Flawless) and I got a GYDA makeup pouch with it! I actually wanted to buy Ageha since there is a Ank Rouge purse coming with the magazine, but honestly I´ve never read Ageha since it´s not my style of gyaru so I choose EGG. The pouch is handy anyway.

However something I still find funny is that EGG don´t have any age limit. I mean HONESTLY...

COME ON......my two words. Even if it´s cartoon I think there need to be an age limit eh...

Or maybe they have, but I´m blind? Or maybe people just don´t care at all. 

Anygays have a good night!

Icy eyes

Hieee everyone!

A few days ago i received my new lenses, usually I use brown or black, but

decided to try vivid blue. I love the color! Zac Efron want his eyes back!

 They´re not that big in diameter, though.

I personally think light makeup goes best with these lenses. 

I was thinking about making a review for them. Would anyone be interested?

Sugar Mama - Executive Realness

Got new lipstick and the color is spot-on perfect!

Blazer: Ank Rouge

Skirt: Ank Rouge

Scarf: Vintage

Shoes: Vintage

Lilac stripes

Hiiee gals!

Exam is coming up and so therefore I´ve been stuck in that library all day for these past days. Faaaq maaai laaaaif *rolling eyes* . It´s gonna be so sweet to get it all done. Although I don´t have any plans this summer I´m just gonna enjoy my vacation to the fullest. 

Yesterday a very good friend of mine turned 24 so I was invited to his party. Party means doll up and that means hundreds of selfshots!! 

If you got me as a friend on fb you probably know that a few days ago I was rambling about wanting lilac hair which is something I´ve never had before. Yesterday I went a bought one bottle, but I should´ve known better. I know that you have to bleach your hair on order for the color to stay on, but I wanted to live with that tiny hope of not having to do it as I´ve already bleached my hair enough.

Sadly the color didn´t stay (fuck you science), but I got a very subtle and nice shade of purple on my light brown hair. It´s not all that visible in the picture, but I honestly really loved it. 

Can you by the way see my roots? Who the hell have 5 cm of black roots already 1 month after she dyed her hair? ME. I like that my hair is growing so fast, but when you´ve already dyed your hair it´s kinda annoying.

Category iiis: O_O-face

I used the rest of the lilac to dye my extensions and I´m extremely happy with the result.

I used Stargazer, but think I´ll order Manic Panic soon. I wanna keep that lilac shade in my hair!

Can you see it? and waddaya think?

Dragula

Haii gals!

As some of you may already know I´m a huge fan of the american reality show called RuPaul´s dragrace. 

Gay? yeah

Drag? yeah

Weird? yeah

Fun? HELL YEAH

For those of you who are following the show (for those of you who don´t: you´re missing out) you might also know all the contestant on season 5. Among them is Jinkx Monsoon, my favorite drag queen this season and probably all time.

Now look at that sexy mama.

So basically I just wanted to do a look inspired by hi..uh her. I have never spend so much time doing my makeup before. Nor have I ever felt so ugly in so much makeup. I guess drag-makeup just doesn´t go well for girls as you´ve already got womanly features. 

Had to exaggerate my lip so much I look like fucking Joker from Batman, but you know I kinda liked the eye makeup. 

I tried my best to snap pictures that could catch my makeup, but the pictures really doesn´t do it´s justice. I reality I was white...as in Snowhite.

Would you look at that pretty face!

 I tried to create the runway look from ep 8 when they were doing the perfume commercial challenge with what I already had in my closet. Difficult, but fun because you really have to think outside the box.

This is probably the best outfit picture I´ve taken since forever.

Now the head bow I made myself the last second from some old fabrics and a white flower I found in my closet. 

Faux fur coat: River Island

Jewelries: Liz Lisa & Primark

Dress: Angeleye

My friend wanted to go for Manila, but bitch didn´t use enough black eye shadow!

YOU GOTTA WERK

Aren´t we just the definition of drop dead gorgeous?

So what did we do after we finished? Went out to eat. 

They actually let us in. I mean look at this...thing:

Lilac all the way

Haiii gals!

Long time no blog. I´m not even going to apologize as I have completely fair reasons to not bloggin the past week.

Maybe not the funniest reason, but uniwork is at the moment my first priority. I had so much to do that I actually deactivated my Facebook for a short period. My past weekend wasn´t really ´´weekend´´for me. I spent all my time in the library reading as I was to hand in a essay on monday, have midterm-test on tuesday and hand in my ex.phil assigment on wednesday. 

Yesterday everything was handed in and I had some time to spare doing things I like. I went to town with my friend and we had some bubble tea and sushi. After that we went shopping. I haven´t been shopping in normal stores for ages and had a really nice day!

As I already wore make-up I didn´t want remove it so I just applied make-up over my casual make-up. Maybe not many of you guys know it, but I used to wear a lot of purple eye-shadow back in the old days, but then I went over to gyaru and thought it didn´t really fit. Pity because I like it a lot.

I´m trying to figure out how to make this go with gyaru because I´m considering using my lilac YSL eyeshadow-palate again and I haven´t used it for a long time. It´s almost as good as new.

Here was what I wore yesterday:

Dress: ACDC RAG 

Hat: Vintage

Collar: Accesorize

Top: New yorker

I bought the dress in Harajuku when I was in Tokyo last summer, but never worn it until know. The reason why is that it´s a bit transparent, but I figured out that my old prom-dress had the same shape as this one so I could wear it underneath.

Coat: Gant

You may not see the difference on the pictures, but I recently started to go to tanning salon and I´m trying to build up a nice tan for this summer! I actually look quite tan in real, but the pictures are not being very fair : (

I also tried to do my hair in a new way. I usually curl my hair all the way and tease as hell, but it´s not good for the hair especially not teasing. I tried to do some ´´sleek´´-curls, it takes me about 5 minutes to do it and it doesn't straight out right afterwards. What do you think?

Saturday in town & outfit

Hi gals!

On saturday I met up with my friend Keziah. We went to have some bubble tea and had a long chat about girlish stuff!

My make-up for the day! I like this picture, but somehow it doesn´t really resemble myself.

I look...younger here(?). Maybe that´s why I like it haha!

After bubble tea we went to do some shopping before we ended up at Burger king. What a ´´galicious´´ life. We took loads of pictures, I think the lady in the front of us was thinking ´´wtf´´ or at least her facial expression was telling us everything! It´s not fault we´re still young and wanna have fun! Can´t blame us can you? ´´Gals just wanna have fun!´´

Keziah bought Ageha from Neo Tokyo. I was considering buying it, but the gift that came with the magazine was a ´´Glad news´´makeup-puch and I´m not in particularly fond of Glad News so I dropped it.

There were many nice snaps in the magazine though..

This is my favorite. I really like the contrast between Himena and Sakurina.

I´ve never really been such a big fan of Himena, but after I watched her in kawaii international I gained new respect for her. Being a DOKUMO really isn´t just a piece of cake. Also some of her more ´´toned-down´´outfits where she wears Liz Lisa are quite inspiring so I might just give her a new chance!

After Burger King we went down to the Central station to take some pictures. 

Hahah this guy wanted to be in the picture so bad. He was funny and I wish Oslo had more people like him! Completely without any prejudice or negative reactions towards us.

He also offered to take our picture :

Me & Keziah. I don´t know what I´m looking at. Maybe a UFO.

This is what I was wearing for the day:

Sorry for the green´ish tone in this picture. I tried to adjust the color on my phone, but for some reason it still stayed green : ((

Top: Random store in Harajuku

Skirt: Liz Lisa

Boots: Mary Rose (dreamv)

Jacket: Liz Lisa

Bag: Dreamv

And this is what got that day:

Note. Some of the stuff I didn´t buy in Oslo, but it arrived the very same day in my postbox. 

I few weeks ago I had gone ahead and ordered some makeup I needed. 

From left to right:

Jewerich eyelash-glue

Candydoll blush in peach pink

Diamond eyeliner

Flower collar from Accesorize

Caramels with the flavor of White strawberry from Neo Tokyo

Micro fiber eyelid tape.

Hope everyone had a nice past weekend! I have so much to do nowadays so I apologize for being a little bit late with this entry, but I´m trying to keep it up.
