Heading to London tomorrow

Yup, going to stay with my brother for a night in London before heading up to stay with some friends in Sheffield ^o^ It's going to be fun~ These are the two girls that I will hopefully be living with when I get back from Japan, so it will be nice to see how we get on etc~ I'm sure we'll be wonderful xD

I'm not taking my laptop with me so it will be iPhone for the whole time I'm there. Luckily I have the Blogger app on it. I will try and blog :) I'll hopefully include photos too.

Don't think I'm doing anything in London tomorrow, but I get a couple of days there on the way back, in which I might be meeting up with a friend and getting Purikura etc~

Fun times ahead :)

Everything a Western Gyaru Needs: My Top 5 Shopping Websites

Japan Centre - Whats a gal without inspiration lol The Japan Centre is basically my hub for Japanese goods. They have many magazines, loads of Gyaru ones. The prices are a little bit high but totally worth it :D I always spend a fortune with them. They also sell food, snacks, drinks, books, manga, study materials, gifts and home goods. I highly recommend you visit the site and see their vast collection for yourself~

Tokyo Toys - This is where I buy my circle lenses. They're reliable and affordable. Fast delivery too~ They have an actual shop in London, so if you're ever around Piccadilly Circus, head into the Trocadero Shopping Center on Coventry street. They sell loads of anime and manga goods as well as Japanese sweets and cosplay goods.

Uniqlo - I love Uniqlo clothing! A lot of their stuff is plain block colours so it's good for accessorising. They also do seperate collections for Disney, Hinano Yoshikawa, Metal Gear Solid etc. Their prices are fairly cheap but the quality is amazing!

Eyeko - Make up etc. They have a great pen eyeliner, big eyes mascara which I mentioned in a previous post. Their nail varnishes are of good quality and don't chip easily. Some items you can get cheaper elsewhere but eyeko's pakaging is sooo cute~ They always have offers and free gifts if you spend over £10.

Artbox - They sell cute things to decorate rooms, cushions, stickers, stationery etc. I love buying from them, their designs are adorable with pandas, hearts, bows and many others. The prices are cheap and they have soo much stuff. They came in very handy for me going off to uni. As I've showed you here, i've bought a lot of things from them for University. I've done about 3 orders with them so far, usually around 10 items a time. The delivery is super fast, and you can choose 2 different delievery types. fast or super fast lol.

London - Taster

So, as I mentioned before, I was going to London this week. Now i'm back and I think it was a rather rewarding trip. I bought soo much stuff haha, all of which I will take photos off and make a slideshow / long blogs etc to show off what I got. I don't have much time over the next few days to get it all up, but here's a taster of a few things that I bought. This is a photo of the bags in my car boot. AND that's only half of them. We also put bags in bags and compressed stuff into one bag in places.





I FINALLY bought something from Octopus :D This lil Japanese purse and a Hello Kitty style Voodoo Doll Keyring. (I thought it was cute).





I bought A LOT in Uniqlo, so that might have it's own post.. probably consisting of 3 parts haha. I'll try and post a few more photos of what I bought tomorrow.

Going away and Gyaru Make Up

As i've been working loads recently I haven't had the chance to try my lashes with my circle lenses yet. But hopefully, my day off on Friday, I will try it and take photos. I'll flick through Popteen and Ranzuki and perhaps do a little tutorial from one of the looks in there.

I decided to go for a plain nail colour this week. The pink that I showed you a few posts back ^o^ The great thing is that I also have an eyeshadow that matches, so I've been pretty much using the same colour eye make up for a week~ heh. I was going to try an 'Up' design, like the ones I've seen on Tumblr. I've flicked through my j-mags too~ but they are either too time consuming or too plain. Guess I'll have to come up with a new idea somehow~ Any inspiration would be highly appreciated.

Me and my brother are going on a bit of a road trip in the next few weeks and we plan on going to London at some point. I'm hoping to go to Camden so I can buy lil gyaru style things, as I've heard they have 3d nail stuffs and some really cute places. I want to go to artbox too, see what the shop is like in person rather than buying off their website. We should be heading to Uniqlo too, which makes me VERY happy.

Expect many photos from our travels~ =D
