Marc Jacobs Birthday Surprise

Thursday, April 15th, 2010 | 52 Comments

I didn’t realize Chinatsu was close to my age She’ll be 26 in a month’s time !! YAAAY~~ YEAH for older models, hahahaaaaa~!



A little page from Scawaii this month~ You can download a larger version here!


Sakurina was born just a week after I was too~ Another fact I hadn’t realized till recently! Happy 27th to her as well. :cake: MWAHAHAAA!


Speaking of birthdays,
I got 1 final gift in for mine! From the ever original Bianca!!!!!
You might know her from her zine Eleanor Zine!
THANK YOU THANK YOU!
You are like a master of gifts for reals
I’ll let some photos do the explaining first


Marc Jacobs USA map raffia tote!!!
OMG it’s peeeeeeeeerfect!
Every time I visit Florida I mean to buy a straw bag but always forget. This is perfect! It’s nice and big too which I’m a fan of

(I think I’m the only person who prefers the LARGE Cher tote to the small, hahahahaaa! )

Cute owl card

A sweet Mickey crystal necklace and this cute crystal heart that was used to decorate the bag

Candies and a Marc Jacobs lipstick shaped pen! So cute~ I didn’t know these existed, haha! :good:

LUSH gift! You know I’ll use this~ I’m the bath queen

Hope it’s OK I posted this! This heart shaped note was so sweet & pretty~ and I couldn’t agree more, it has quite a nice Chinatsu vibe!

Quite a good sized bag!



New Popteen came in today.

I ran out and picked it up. While at the bookstore this really nice Japanese couple asked if they could take my picture for their blog, haahaaaa! I dunno if they just meant me or Mike and I both, but I was so caught off guard I sorta clung to Mike and dragged him into the snap with me, lulz! I’ve never had that happen before. I’m just glad I looked half decent! Sometimes I go to pick up magazines looking like a total troll. Though I don’t think I was dressed so cute today either….

It was hot and I had been working all day so I threw this on…

I dunno why I look so serious! Hahaha! I need to learn to take more snaps + smile in them!

Oh Popteen! The back cover ad is for the new Palty colors or whatever, but it’s just so cute I love it! So much Tsubasa + wig love!


That blonde shade trips me out! Hahahah

WOW that blonde palty shade is so very….. Lady Gaga? It’s so bright!!! But I love some of those other shades in that ad … it makes me want to try something new!

How nice getting snapped! Something like that’s only happened to me once and it was only pictures of my handmade accessories LOL, o___O !

jenny said

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:18 pm

Yea I heard this brand is very strong too & effective! Sometimes I wanna dye my hair too~~~

Does the blonde hair dye really come out that perfect!?!
It\’s kind of hard to get the perfect shade of blonde(not yellow, blonde) when your hair is black, turns out orange-y

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:20 pm

I heard it was very very strong and effective with color. But I wouldn’t know. It has peroxide in it which turns mine orange so I haven’t tried it nor is my hair black. But a LOT of people have reviewed it if you want to google it!

& shush, I can’t imagine you EVER looking like a troll~ that outfit is simple & cute too! ❤

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:21 pm

Hahaa me too

Troll = gross bed-bent hair, no make or even washed face, glasses, sloppy sweats I guess, hahahaaa

What a sweet gift!

My sis and I were just in the marc Jacobs store in Boston, and I couldn’t believe how affordable some of the stuff is! We got rings for $3 ea, bracelets for $5, nice eco bags and suspenders for $9, and cosme heart mirrors for $5. Awesome!

I’ve never seen that design though - super cool!

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:22 pm

I probably should have hit up one in NY but money saved I guess!

Yeah older models seem to really have it, I mean they have a better sense of style and self. It’s too bad that models tend to have a short shelf life (especially in Japan)

Wow, you got such cute gifts from Bianca, I love the note she wrote for you^^

Did you get the name or URL of the blog that took your photo? It would be so fun to see your photo when they post it

I like that color of yellow blonde for some reason! ! I was thinking of dying my hair that color or the blonde in the upper left corner.

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:26 pm

I didn’t get the url, they seem sorta embarrassed hahahaa, so I was on my way out anyway

Mmmm golden blonde!!! Looks nice! Yea, the yellow blonde, the thing about those shades is they’re easily stained by hair products. I had bleached white blonde before and I was told to be careful not to use colored products or shampoos in my hair. It’s interesting this whole world of hair dye~~~

If I didn’t have this gov’t job I might actually risk getting back into dying my hair again =T Or maybe thats just my excuse for pussing out as I get older, ha!

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 5:19 pm

Yea it’s a bunny!

 
 
Bianca said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:47 pm

OMG IM SO GLAD YOU LIKE IT!!!

funny story actually. I go to the marc jacobs store like once a week, seriously, and I saw that bag and it glowed “jenny jenny jenny jenny” and I was like hmmm…i think she’d really like that.

This was before i had even asked if it was okay, but when you said yeah, I GOT SO NERVOUS I think i went there 5xs picking it up, putting it back down, picking it up, putting it back down, I saw some of the cheaper eco totes, but they were small and kinda the grunge chic look, which doesnt seem very you, so i like held my breath and bought it!!

Then I saw the owl card, and all these little pieces that just seemed just right I’m so thrilled you like it,’s so on trend right. Reminds me of some of Chinatsu oversized bags. Hope the bag wasn’t too wrinkled, its hard finding a box to fit it right DX

btw, the lush bath bomb, is a bunny!!! a bunny peep, late easter gifty

Bianca said
April 16, 2010 @ 12:54 pm

oh, actually one more thing, ITS NOT A BUNNY PEEP, its a traditional bunny candy shape from Japan, i new it reminded me of the harvest moon stuff in japan

here’s a linky:http://www.lushusa.com/shop/products/bath-shower/bath-bombs/honey-bun

the fact that its a traditional japanese cake shape, makes me love it EVEN MORE!!

jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 5:15 pm

Seriously that’s what I thought it was but was like “no… it’s LUSH, it can be? Maybe it’s a coincidence?!” Thanks for the link I couldn’t find it on the site last night *fails*

 
 
jenny said
April 16, 2010 @ 5:18 pm

Gah really I don’t mean to make you a nervous wreck especially when it’s such a sweet thing you getting me something for my birthday and all!! hahahahaaa

I THINK I saw this bag before, randomly, and was like “ooooooooooooooooooh O_O!” because when I saw it again a little *ding* went off in my mind! It’s hardly got any crease wrinkles. I’m surprised actually at just how non-wrinkled it is after the long travel

Ohhh, Chinatsu’s birthday is exactly a week after Rinka and I’s ;D Haha, that’s cool.

That is the best packaging ever for you gift too!Bianca’s gifting skillz FTW! Lmao!

Lol @ the photoshopped colour of Tsubasa’s hair! The pic of the packaging doesn’t match the exact same pic of it at the top of the ad scan

ahhhh i tried palty TWICE and it really worked! i’ve never tried anything lighter than … brown though haha but i hear it works wonders, especially on pesky black hair~

that straw bag is HUGE O_O imagine all the things you can fit in there … owls, macarons, more outfits…

jenny said
April 17, 2010 @ 5:21 pm

The first time I went into a Lush Mike didn’t know until after we left that it was a soap store!

How fun! The japanese couple blog is probably about Americans dressing the Japanese style. You think so? I’m sure you are so flattered!

Chinatsu is a year older than me!

I like that there are a fair few older models Sakurina and Chinatsu are two of my faves,makes me feel alot less old even thou Im only 23.
I get the urge to dye my hair a lighter brown alot,but im quite fond of my natural hair colour and i’d be lazy with up keep.:O Palty dyes always looked good thou.
