Egoist's Missoni dress is love

decided not to buy the Murua Poncho in the previous post
(which was actually sold out as well within 2 days)

favourite Japanese brands at the moment Murua and Egoist
are going to get some lovely new items that i wanted to report
about


first is this cute flare top which comes in the colours
white, black, pink, mix
wonder what mix is but unfortunately Egoist doesn't give
colour samples on it's website



this one is similar in design but caught my eye especially in the
combination with the long camisole one piece which is sold
for 3, 675 yen (hope they got other colours as well) and
printed head accesssoire





onepiece with missoni like zigzag print i like really much
comes in the colours
black, brown, purple, orange
can't wait to see the other colours as well
but the colour on the pictures is surely nice for fall as well



From Today Murua is selling a new version of it's popular
vintage rucksack which was sold out within short time as
many Murua items are.
Personally i like the new one better as it seems bigger
and you can use it also as a shoulderbag /handbag as well






actually I am not a frequent poster of fashion pics of myself
as I don't have much confidence about my own fashion
sense of putting items together. I'm still in a loooong
phase of experimentation after my longtime love for surf
gyaru clothes.
Wish I'd be summer soon for I want don't have to be
wearing leggings or trenka
.
i'd love to afford designer items but most of my stuff
is H&M or Zara or Egoist

Murua denim poncho (buy or no buy?)

I was really looking forward to this unique Murua item getting
into the stores since I saw it in the Murua Newspaper.
Unfortunately I can't see it for myself since I'm in Germany
at the moment...............and probarbly sold out till I get
back...............

Well I wasn't sure if I should buy it anyway since it looked
so lovely in the picture on Momoko (which is very edited)
so the colours are really highlightend.
I would have bought the poncho if the colours were really
like in these pictures










But in real the poncho's colour is a looot more grey and dark



Love the shilouette and the idea of a denim poncho
but the colour....couldn't they have made it lighteer...





So what do you think...........Buy or no buy???





PS: the flower pringt Paggins Momoko is wearing
are love too right?

Gets and wants

I'm taking a break from Japan for a month for visiting my family in
Germany. One week will be spend at Mallorca!!

Recently in love with these gorgeous Catrice cosmetic

Ultimate Nudes

They are at just about 2 Euros each, which is such a reasonable price

bought the one called My café au lait at Nôtre Dame



and still want the other 6 ones as well





Got myself these lovely H&M bracelets for 2,95 Euro each.
But regretting a bit cause i wanted the coloured one but should have choosen
the beige / white one for a better contrast.
Nothing helps...have to buy one more!!

Those bambi eyes with thick eyeliner and false eyelashes!!!!! Perfection
Even gal make looses to them.

(And the final question: Black or White?)

Situation in Sapporo, Japan

I don't know what to do..................

The situation in Japan is so severe at the moment....

I'm spending all time I can on watching news and observing the
new developments.

Everybody in Germany wants me to go back. I know German
media is reporting a lot more heavy on the situation in Japan
than the Japanese media do. It might be only a cultural mentality
difference, since Germans are easier to panic, as well as they have
the experience of a nuclear cloud 1986. But it might be because
Japanese government lacks information. I do not know.

At the moment I am in Sapporo, Hokkaido.
It is said to be safe as it is 650km from Fukushima. But if the worst
case happens and the Fukushima reactors burst into a nuclear cloud
what guarantees that this cloud might not be blown to Hokkaido?
I don't want my health to be dependent on the wind and weather.
In fact Sapporo measures higher radiation in the last days than usual
though too little too affect health.

I want to go back so much. But I have my Japanese husband here for
who it is difficult to part with his family and leave them.
His famlily thinks it is safe here. I can't believe how calm yet naive they
are. The nuclear bomb already happend in Japan and it is not as bad as
that.
I don't think so! It is as bad as that if not worse. INES scale is 6!!! One
level below Chernobyl that had the scale of 7. The worst case.

The clothes shop I work for doesn't want me to to leave at least till
24th because they have too little staff. My husbands work also
wants him to stay till 24th till they finish their work deadline.
But 24th is still one week away. I don't think Fukushima powerplant
will make it till that when the situation is already as severe as now.

We already had decided to leave together on Sunday but after
speaking with my husbands family they think it's more important
for my husband to finish his work till the deadline 24th.
That's why we didn't buy tickets yets.

I can't stand the pressure anymore.

I do now know what to do. Almost everybody I know has left the
country or at least gone to Osaka.

If i was alone in Japan I would have left already

While I am in a state of frustration everything goes the normal
way in Sapporo. People are just like any days. The shop I work
for has almost no change in customers. I can't believe how
anybody can go shopping for fashion and spring clothes these
days. Don't they watch TV and see the suffering situation in
the refugee camps in Japan where the earthquake survivors
sharing the little food and water they have suffering from
coldness.


My family in Germany is so worried but I can't go alone
without my husband. He is my life now
So much pressure from all sides.
I feel like a bursting bomb myself.
From abyss of despair

SS 2011 Murua + Egoist want items

Recently these items on my top wanting list!!
I'm really getting to like Egoist and Murua this Spring season.

Egoist

Stripe shirt which i want to have in brown or bordeaux



This white cute pullover Rumi Neely had a
photoshooting in
I hate that they choose Elli-Rose for their
lookbook though


This lovely trench coat is going to be in store 3/4 in
Sapporo. I love the assimetric line and the unique
colour




I know wide suede hats are anywhere now but
I really love this trend so this time I don't mind
others wearing it as well.
This shop staff's hair is love!!


This hair is really nice! So natural but cute

Murua

I loved the collabo with Karolina Engmann. It's so good to
see Japanese and Non-Japanese fashion work together.
The pictures in the lookbook for SS 2011 were so nice to look
at and really great quality

What especially cought my eye was this see though
jacket (Sorry bad pic quality bad lightening)

This shirt is really nice too. I hope it comes to stores
soon. Egoist produced a similar one but as from the
pictures Murua's looked better shilouette wise, but have
to see them in real for deciding which to buy





As you can see I'm really in love with the Spring
"blogger look" which is huge in Japan at the moment.
It just suits my personal style so much. It's been long
ago that a trend has cought me that much so I think
I'm gonna buy a lot this season before the "blogger
look" gets out of trend and out of stores, even then I'm
gonna wear it anyway I guess

Macaron and rainbow tulips

Hello,
here I am again since I have three free days this week ( For the weeks
I had one so that still makes 7 free days this month, which i mostly
spend doing laundry and relaxing from work so I didn't have
the power for blogging. Sorry!!!

So I know I'm kind of late buuuuuuut as I love Valentine's day
since I love cooking stuff as well and it's just the occasion for
doing over the top pink cute sweets.
This is what i gave:


made of this:
Macaron set and chocolate pens in pastel colours
which was more difficult to make than i thought
since it was a set. But they turned out quite well i guess


and this: (plus the file and the 2 straps i got for buying
4 meiji chocolate bars for the dinosaurs chocolates

)

They looked kind of flat at the beginning


but after baking and sandwiching them and decorating
they lookes really cute



My man fighting with the snow during me making macarons



and the lovely flowers i got for Valentine
since I don't like waiting till WhiteDay
so I prefer it the Non-Japanese way


Rainbow tulips!!!!

This was my year 2010

Wow it's been such a long time since my last post!!!!
So sorry really!!!!!!!!!

My new job (though it's just a baito) is taking me over
like I have never imagined. There were days especially
during the NewYear's sale when I didn't check my mail
or internet for 6 days because I was just too tired to do
anything beyond coming home, eating, showering.

That's why first of all a very belated

HAPPY NEW YEAR

May all your wishes come true in 2011!!!


2010 has been a really really chaotic year for me
things didn't really turn out as planned, and I feel
as if it was too slow in moving forward. As well
it was a year of a lot travel and change.

This was my year 2010


February: I finally after graduating from university get
to Sapporo for searching a job in the fashion field.
Leaving Duesseldorf with a lot of nostalgic and sad
feeling but with the motivation of challenging new thing



August: After spending a lot time on job search no
result and having go back to Germany because of
visa experiation. Also made the decision with my
my boyfriend to marry after being 3 years together
as it will be a lot easier for us to live in each country
having no problems with the visa issue.



September: Going to Spain with my family for vacation
My boyfriend also directly comes from Sapporo to
Barcelona.



23/9 : Being able to fullfill my boyfriends biggest dream
for his birthday! One day and night in Ibiza with tickets
to Cream at the club Amnesia.



October: Getting back to Germany

09/10: Wedding day with beloved friends and family who
took their way all till South Germany



23/10 : Going back to Sapporo with a lot of motivation for
finding a job

December: Finally after a lot of effort getting a job at KariAng








Though 2010 was quite an exhausting year. I am happy
that i could experience everything i did in this year.

I hope 2011 is gonna bear as much surprises as 2010



Wishing everybody of you an exciting 2011!!!!!!
