not my day

How to get over a NO day? One of those days when you just feel like staying in bed, crying with self pity, thinking nothing you do is right and will never get you anywhere and bring you nothing. One of those days in which you don't even feel like eating anything or seeing or talking to anyone. One of those days in which your dreams seem very very far away and almost don't exist or make sense. How?

JILLE Jan scans - Street Snaps in Japan

January's Jille had a great section of street snaps and these are my favorites. I really fell in love with the Osaka girls, they are so much more oshare than the rest, its like they're less afraid of trying unconventional things and also go for more vintage pieces. Fukuoka and Kagoshima girls are absolutely cute! I fell for that main girl on the Kagoshima page, totally adorable.
Next time I go to Japan I definitely must visit Osaka!

1 week outfits

close up of the collar detail - little houses! - so cuuute, haha

I'm trying to re-invent myself by wearing the same items in as many different ways as possible. This way I will avoid buying more and more clothes that I don't really need, and just be happy with what I got. For example, I've had that last vintage dress for almost 3 years, but only now I started wearing it on a weekly basis. Why not? I find myself digging my closet and drawers, searching for something I haven't worn for a while, and trying to wear it in a different, but still suitable, way that I haven't done before. Of course getting dressed in the morning might take a while longer than usual. So it's better to think about it the night before, haha. I'm sticking to my plan of buying clothes only once a month! But I still like fashion and to dress cute. Hope it works for a long period :)

Choki Girls

Recently I got a couple of the latest issues of the magazine Choki Girls and quite liked it. Their style is so cute and adorable, without being too much or with loads of pink. A very nice combination of retro girly.

Too much fun :D I spent many nights in Izakayas, basically I was drinking 6 nights a week, so you can have a picture... My favorite snack with beer was eihire (not sure about the name anymore), some dried fish.

I better get some dinner right now, this got me starving!
