winter Yesstyle get items and new shoes

These are my get items from December and January. Since I am on a savings plan, Yesstyle's winter sale was really usefull. The clothes I got are nice quality and comfy for this cold weather, plus super cheap and cute! The only down side of Yesstyle is how long they take to actually ship the items... Last time even though I chose only "ready to ship" items, it took them 2 weeks to finally send it to me. The previous one took 1 month and only then did they inform me that 2 of the items I had chosen were sold out (after I had purchased them!) and I got a refund. Its a bit annoying to by stuff from Yesstyle, to be honest, but it's worth it because of the price and cute things. I've been buying from them for the past 5 years and its always the same with every order, so I don't expect much anymore, haha.

The little boots are from Topshop, they're very comfy and warm for winter. But since its suede, I can't wear them in the snow or rain.

We got some snow last week. I come from a city where it never snows, so I'm still amazed every time I see snow, haha. I've been given night shifts for 3 weeks, so my life as been insane, I feel like I don't have time for anything. I get home late, near 1am, go to sleep at 2am, sleep until noon, wake up and get shower, eat something, check my email and leave for work again. I don't like this kind of life. I like to wake up early, go to work, come back and do stuff, make dinner, take shower and go to sleep. I know I have the same amount of time to spend at home, but I can't seem to make a good use of it. I don't fit this kind of schedule. So I requested not to be given more than 3 night shifts anymore... I feel out of balance.

On a more healthy side, I've been eating loads of Oden and Nabe, so soothing for this cold weather. It's been an average of -3/-4 at night here in London and I'm not really used to it.

Hopefully I will go back to a more balanced schedule and find more time to blog, I have so much to say! haha

last week in photos

Hello hello,

I don't have as much time as I wished to blog, so here's a bit of what I wore for the past week. I do apologize for the insane low quality of my iPhone pics.


MONDAY




Wearing my Emoda coat and tote bag. Just another day, before going to work.






TUESDAY



Again, before going to work. top: Emoda. skirt, tights: Topshop.









WEDNESDAY



Lunch at a Mexican restaurant in Bricklane. The food is alright and cheap, but I go there for the Margaritas! They are divine!!




Beanie & jumper: Emoda. Sunglasses & coat: Topshop.





FRIDAY



Kimchi nabe for dinner, cooked by my honey! Deliciously perfect! I was so happy :D






hat from street market. everything else by Topshop.





And that's more or less how it was. Just work work work and more work. But still managed to snap these. And my honey as been so nice to me lately, I feel quite blessed.

How was your week??

coordinates

Ok, so I said I was going to blog again tonight, and u know what? It was almost impossible.

While I was taking bath my honey texted me about going to this Japanese music party for free, he had managed to put us on the guest list. I didn't really want to go, as I was so relaxed in the bath and ready to go to bed afterwards, but... But! I know he wanted to go and I was a bit curious to see what kind of place was it, so I ended up getting dressed and make up to go.

Being a japanese vintage music DJ myself, I am a bit conceited, which is horrible, I know, but I can't help it. I am a japanese music otaku, so most times I think i know better... Noooooo, everyone who reads this is going to hate me... Well, as soon as I walked in the bar I immediately felt uncomfortable, heavy rock music playing, horrible and smelly people dancing, what a scene. On another room there was a karaoke box, the music was standable in there, but it was f*cking hot in there! So there wasn't much to choose from.

We managed to stand it for 2 hours and came back home. As a free party, it was interesting, but wouldn't do it again. As a £7 entrance fee party, I would be highly disappointed and would think about asking my money back. I was quite surprised buy the number of weird japanese people in there though, I thought the majority would be gaijin, to be honest.

Moving on... I want to post some recent coordinates, I always seem to forget to take pictures before going to work, so I don't have many outfits to share.

This one's from Monday.
Everything from Topshop.

This is what I wore today.

Beanie ... Emoda
Cardigan ... H&M
OP ... Topshop
Leggings ... Topshop
Trainers ... Topshop




Coat ... Topshop

And a close up from Monday cuz you couldn't see the turban in the other one.

Heavy camwhore post today! I'm so so sorry, ahahaha

On other news, I managed to gain 1kg in a week! Yay!! I hope I can keep this. I am being a good girl and having 5 meals a day, full of friendly calories, hehe.

Ok ok, until the next post, I have to work whole day tomorrow -_-;
See youuuuu~~

get items @ Topshop

Hello!

Earlier this week I did some shopping at Topshop. God, I love that shop so much that it will ruin my economic life.

So this is what I got!

Oversized coat, black long top and baggy shirt. When I saw that coat for the first time it was love at first sight. I tried to forget about it, but I just couldn't resist. I managed to wear it already once, but then the cold came back again so I put it on the side for when Spring comes...

Couple coordinates. I really love the silhouette that the coat gives, it makes my back look straight (I have horrible posture problems -_-;) and it suits so fine. I bought it 1 size big, I am a size 6 but got this one on size 8, to give more of the oversized look, but maybe I should have bought 2 sizes up? hmm... Anyways, I really really really love it!

And a couple of close up pictures of how I look recently.

Took this one after work, on topshop's changing room, hence the tired look... Quite natural make up, just foundation, concealer, bit of blush, some eye shadow and mascara. I'm wearing circle lens (obviously), big series in black from Meigoshop.

And here I'm full make up on. Foundation, concealer, powder, etc... Except fake lashes, I never tried them before, don't know why, just feel like they're too much time consuming. Wearing a coral lipstick! Can't wait for spring/summer to come! Also contacts are GEO World in brown, again from meigoshop.

Those are the contacts that I wear on a daily basis, the Big in black are more comfortable. I got used to the Geo ones already, although by the end of the day my eyes are quite dry and reddish. The first day was the worst one, no matter how many times I put drops on them, my eyes were irritated and red. I didn't have the same problem with the Geo Wing ones though, those were pretty comfortable.

I have short eye sight so being able to wear these contacts for a whole day is an issue here.

And that is it for now!
I still need to post about my Emoda gets.
And maybe soon I will talk about make up, while I'm not an expert, I like to try many things so I want to share a bit of what I learned from some products. But no make up tutorials I promise, haha.
