Cher 15th Anniversary Box
Monday March 01, 2010
My friend sent me the Cher 15th ANNIVERSARY BOX! :star::cher:
It was surprising that they’ve done another bag with their catalog release. Last season they said the wouldn’t be including a bag anymore. Maybe the bad economy made them want to do another free bag in order to sell? Or maybe they were using the announcement before to sell out of THAT catalog? humm, hummm! :doubledquestion:
This box came with an eco bag made of denim with rope for handles. VERY spring meets summer I think. Capitalizing on both the denim and nautical trends. There is also a pouch in similar style. It’s faily large and I might use it as my new makeup bag! It also came with 2 catalogs. The latest Spring/Summer 2010 catalog and a special edition 15 years catalog that includes 2 pages from all their previous catalogs. I want to scan a few pages in of both. Their new S/S 2010 looks are soooooo nostalgic-vintage-casual! I forget how wonderful their warmer weather looks are sometimes~ :ohyeslovely: And the 15th Anniversary catalog has Rinka in it from 2002! When she had that super short hair. :rose1:
The bags needs to air out a little though. They smell like pool toys because of the plastic used for putting the logo onto the jean material. I described it as “pool lining” while Mike went for “inflatable killer whale pool toy” smell. :gigglewakuface:
I have some photos from the weekend I figured I’d dump here too! I had such a great weekend! It was really hard getting back to work today to be honest. BTW I decided I’m wearing glitter eyemake all week! I usually avoid wearing glitter makeup to work because it’s sorta seen as childish. But I wore a lot of it on Sunday and fell back in love with all my glitter makeup. So screw it! I’m gonna wear glitter all week! I miss my glitter makeup! :ureshii::rainbowtwinkle:
Friday we had dinner out!
It was snowing pretty hard but the roads were still safe. There was even a 40 minute wait but Mike and I just waited, talked, and people watched! Food was delicious as always! It’s a dark restaurant so the pic is like scary lighting, LOL. Afterwards we got Starbucks and walked around the shops and cafes a bit! IN THE SNOW! Ah yeaaaaaaaaa! :sqstar: For once I was wanting to enjoy winter just a little longer!
Saturday we went to H&M
Well the only H&M to get the Sonia Rykiel collection in DC to be more specific. It had The Blues collection in too. I tried on a ton of stuff! LOVED the ruffle dress except the cuts along the side of the ruffles. The cool jumper was not made for short torso’d people, LOL, so I walked away empty handed but that’s OK! Their Blues stuff was pretty great and crazy cheap though! $9 boyfriend jean shorts. I already had similar stuff at home.
Sunday Bing Soo!
Rolled out of bed really late. I had stayed up till 2am Saturday so I look ROUGH! I didn’t actually do my hair either, it’s just still hairsprayed from the day before, hahahaahaa! :faceaha:
I wanted to check out this cafe called Shilla that I saw on the DCist. To think this awesome cafe was nearby all this time!! It’s simply adorable and stocked to the rafters with amazing breads, snacks, and cakes! Not to mention Bing Soo and coffees! I wanted to try their yogurt bing soo~ It was really delicious! Still used the wonderful nonfat frozen yogurt so it was bitter, but it was drenched in syrups and mixed with various fruits (kiwi, strawberry, blueberry, honeydew melon, canteloupe, pineapple, passion fruit, mango,) Frosted Flake cereal, sweetened oats and grain cereal, and rice cake! Plus two pocky sticks out the side to add charm :D
IT WAS DELICIOUS!!
Mike got a coffee and only after I ordered the dessert he informed me that he’s “saving room for BBQ sandwiches.” Gaaaaaaaaaaah!!! I had to tackle the thing solo! I did a pretty decent job though! See~~~!! :arrow: :piggy:
Some more photos of the place. It was really quiet when we first got there, but around 1:00 people were REALLY piling in there! I’m lucky I could get these photos early on!
They had free samples of nearly everything they sold too! And it ALL tasted amazing!
The April cover of Popteen is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!
Maybe my favorite cover ever! :twinklepink: Then again I’m partial to April covers (my birthday’s in April,lol.) I don’t care if it is a wig, finally super short hair looking as feminine as possible! REFRESHING.
And funnily enough there is a circle lens spread in this issue! :okicon: I’ll scan that in when I get my hands on the issue! The PopSister insert looks cuuuuuuute! Western girly~ I wasn’t a big fan of last month’s PopSister insert. It was a little boring for my tastes. I need to get some short cowboy boots this spring~~ And looks like the insert has something to do with wigs too??!! Geez! Haahaa! There was a big wig section in last month’s SCawaii too~~!! :iiface:
That’s it~ Probably good and long enough! OoO :champagne:

The new cher bag is super-cute~!! I’m glad they decided to make another one since they’re so iconic now, haha! ♥
So many lovely photos in this entry too~ your makeup looks really nice! Do I spot the falsies you blogged about before in the 2nd Friday out photo? ;) That cafe looks amazing too! The froyo reminds me of this thing called fried ice cream they serve as dessert at this one Mexican restaurant near me, haha~ so yummy!
I love the April cover of Popteen too ♥ Even though I wish they would give Kumickey a break from being cover model! XD -
Really cute bag!! And those desserts look so good. I don’t know how you resisted, but good for you!! XD
-
Aww….you look CUTE in that ruffle dress! It reminds me of that high-waist ruffle skirt that you got and wore for your v-day picture shot last year? lol.
Oh and I LOVE that outfit of Tsubasa (is that her?) in the Popsister cover! I’ve always loved the cow boy look! Btw, do you happen to know anywhere that uploads Popsister and Popteen scans? Now with Pinky gone and Vivi is turning TOO rockish for my liking, I need more other magazine alternatives to look for outfit ideas!
-
Whuaaaah that bing soo looks so gooooooooooooood. Oh man, unfortunately I didn’t get to go today. And I love that Cher bag! Yay for nautical. =]
-
Oh I love that Cher bag set, its so lovely and perfectly fits this spring season! Your friend was so sweet and thoughtful to send it.
I’m glad to hear you had a great evening out and having dinner, and the desserts look so cute! But you look way cuter hehe Thanks for sharing your great photos, it makes me want to get out and enjoy the day!
-
FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

Cute bag!
The special 15 year catalog sounds really neat to me.Aw, the snow. It don’t think it’ll be here in OK again! The walking around sounds really nice.
I really like taking walks like that with my boyfriend, Bryan! Hm, we need to go out and eat! We haven’t in awhile~ I want to go out and eat breakfast one morning with him too. :DI’ve never had Bing Soo, but it certainly looks tasty! It all does.
Oh, your pink jacket! I have something similar, but it’s a raincoat and has a belt.Oh, the Pop Sister is cute. Really relaxed. The Popteen one is nice too–I like the colors and her outfit–but something about her hair throws me off a bit.
I’ve never had macaroon!
-
Omg….those desserts are to die for. XDDD
-
I was thinking about getting that mook but I have no idea how I would get it…jealous!
I have yet to look at the Sonia Rykiel for H&M! There are a few sweaters I like ^-^
I like that Popteen cover; can’t wait for PopSister!
And lastly, those desserts look yummy! -
Omg the yogurt bing soo looks so delicious!!! :P
I totally spotted a bunch of strawberry cakes :D, I love love strawberries now I really want some ;_;
Hm and I never tried macarons before, yet another thing I have to add to the “to try” list.
Loooove the cher bag! It’s very in season. ;)
No idea how you manage to looks so cute in all your pictures. :) -
Cher bags are so simple but cute, the color combo is great too.
omg look at all that food!!!!!! This post makes me want to go get some sweets! And that strawberry shortcake would be the death of my thighs! I’m amazed you didn’t go crazy in there, everything seems to be calling out “eat me” hehe -
The yogurt looks soooo good
-

mmm all those sweets look sooo yummy…glad you had such a nice weekend! i’m envious~ teehee
btw, i love those patch-work jeans you got have. you wear things that i normally wouldn’t look twice at and look so cute doing it, it makes me appreciate them more. i don’t think i would’ve liked those jeans much if i had seen them on the rack, but you & kumikki make them look awesomeee
-
I think i started hyperventilating at the dessert pictures…
*u*

-

LET’S BE COWGIRLS!!! :P
Shilla sounds so amazing!! Ironically enough there’s a Shilla here too! … Only they sell Korean bbq hahaha~
-
OHH i hope they still got some left when phil gets to japan!!! ^^
And that bing soo looks so yummyyyy :D *droooool* at first i was like “what’s a bing soo?” and then i saw the pic and went “uuuU!”
i love how your hair looks even when you said you didn’t do your hair!! gahhh jealouuuussss -
wow such a long post! I don’t know what to comment on! lol
One thing I have to say is, I absolutely looooove the way you dress~
And that Cher bag makes me want to throw a towel and some sunblock in there and head o the beach :)
I love all the pics you take :D
And I cant wait for April issues~ Spring is right around the corner!
P.S. you have such a pretty smile! -
I like this Cher bag more. What a great gift! =D Looks like you had a fab weekend…yay!!
-
Oh man, pictures of sweets make my day *sigh*
There is something about aqua and pink that is so dreamy beautiful!
-
Sounds like it was a good weekend :) I can’t believe all those sweety goodies. Wow I’d have been in absolute heaven ;)
-
I loooooove Batbingsoo!!!! One of my fav. summer items. I’ve never had it with fro-yo before though. I wish I had a fun + cute Korean bakery in my vicinity, I’m jealous!
The Cher bags seem sooooooo great too! At first I wasn’t fond of the fact that they decided to add the nautical rope handles, but after hearing great things about it from others I’m having second thoughts. I’ll just have to wait for mine which I’m still (impatiently) waiting for (even though I know I wouln’t wear mine out until the weather gets a bit better…).
I also really enjoy the large bead necklace you are wearing in some of the above pics!
-
I like the next Popteen’s cover, too “bad” it’s Kumicky again ! I love her actually, she is supercute, a lot more with wig, short hair suits her so much. *hearts* Another model on the cover, I think this would be the most refreshing thing they can do though !
Otherwise, all your coordinates are lovely, as always. Aaaaaand your dessert looks so yummy. . D: -
That, by far, has to be my favorite Cher bag. Like you said, very Spring like :) That bakery looks so sweet. Better than any of the ones we have here. Maybe you should get a short-style wig too (since you already have a long-curl style). That way you won’t have to cut your hair short when you feel like having sort hair :)
-
I love your Cher bags and H&M dress! I have a soft spot for ruffles >_
-
OMG! All those pastries and cakes look sooooooo delicious! Isn’t it cold eating bing soo in the winter time though? :O I love the Cher bag by the way! How big is it?
-
I found myself starting to like popteen now. I didn’t like it before just because I thought it didn’t suit me…it’s too cute and exaggerating… But well, I downloded some recent issues and found the styles actually very doable… Pleasant to see in general. =)
-
Jenny~! you are so pretty, please tell me how you get your figure!!
-
Somebody’s wearing their circle lenses… ;) And the (pat) bing soo looks delicious!
The first thing I noticed about the Popteen cover was not that Kumicky was on the cover again (that is her, right? haha) but that a tiiiiny picture U-KNOW Yunho from TVXQ is the corner!
-
OMGGGGGGGGGGGG, those pastries look too cute to eattttt!!!! D:
-
Three things I loved:
1) The cher bags – I think I need a cher bag now. I’m not one for brands and labels, but they are just consistently, consistently cute! NEED Too bad I decide this just as they decide not to make anymore. –;;
2) The H&M dress. It’s too adorable!! I can’t believe you didn’t buy it! I think I need to go pursue it!
3) POCKY YOGURT SUPREME – WONDERFUL!! You can even eat that on your diet?! My god I want!!! -
Ooh bread, i love finding great places like this. Me and Panda went to this mexican bakery, oh it was so wonderful! And yay for short hairs and cher bags!
-
compared to the heart-shaped cakes && well decorated stuff;
the cakes we sell at our café look REALLY SHITTY *lolz*
I wish we’d do something more decoden but my mother prefers large & huge cakes made up of german traditional recipes~
Apart from that, Germany is such a boring country. There isn’t any shop that sells colourfull food in my state of lower saxony!
Apart from DUNKIN’ DOUNUTS 200 km awaaaay ( ;A; )
Aw, your second outfit: LOVE. -
Definitely good and long post! Hehe!
That yogurt thingy looks yummy!!! I want to eat it right now!!Love the Sonia Rakel ruffle dress too! Too bad S’pore doesnt carry H&M!! I love their stuffs. And they always have very cool collaboration.
-
awwww I LOVE shilla!! I actually I live right near Shilla so I go there a lot ^-^ there’s another bakery down the road (across the street) you should check out too! Sometimes they carry different breads than shilla^^ and they have some yummy cafe drinks!
Thanks for the pics! Super cute
-

you should gain more weight^^ i think it makes you look healthier & lovelier. haha but never mind me just an observation =) -
The Cher bag is cute, good for summer :]
It really reminds me of summer and beach x]
The ruffle dress is cute, and it’s PINK x) Love it (: I have to buy something in this colour cuz it’s perfect for this spring, with a light blue denim jacket :3Aww i wasn’t sure it was korean characters on the cakes x)
The bakery looks so cute, i’d love to taste the cakes *-*
