Do My Laundry, 梨花!

Sunday, 2/1 [2009] // 41 Comments

梨花 looks so adorable for Kao’s new GIRL meets 効かせワザ campaign!






I picked up the March issue of Vivi and couldn’t help but notice THIS DRESS

full scan of mixed dress styles

remember!?

ハハハ~!

Of course now that nagging voice that was there before always sort of wanting the dress is MUCH louder now and I went back just last week and noticed it was already on sale for $80.00… maybe it’ll be less next week? It doesn’t fit “GREAT.” It fits really low on the chest so it would always need to be layered and the silhouette is a bit boxy, but it is still cute and I’ve always loved that knitted top part. Anyway~ thought it was interesting, but also cruel since it’s extremely difficult to get Free People clothes in Japan. You can only find it online or at specialty import shops.


2008 Hits!

I scanned in some year-in hit reviews from Non-no & CanCam~ here’s a zip of the scanned pages in full. Only 8 pages and the zips about 18mb. Below are some items that caught my eye~


Snidel’s fur boots~

eco bags

Fanta’s ふりふろ shake it drink

Cher eco bag


Banana diet!!!

knit scrunchie or シュシュ

モコモコ short boots

Fringe boots!

Checkered onepiece

Something similar happened to me as well a couple days ago - I bought a skirt about a month ago and noticed it was in the CUTiE Feb 09 you uploaded. :]
Makes you feel special, doesn’t it?

Those boots looks so nice and warm! Last night I had to walk home in the snow wearing pumps - I thought my feet would fall off from the numbness!

Rinka looks cuter than ever! She’s beyond perfect (TT)

Cannot believe she looks so young! CRAZYYYYY D: I look older than her and she’s like waaaaaay older than me

I think the dress is so cute! If all fails… um, wear it as a beach dress with a bikini under? Haha, clevage is permitted then!

Laundry always seems to take AGES. I literally spend 3 days on it -_-

Banana diet? I wish I could read the Japanese! I need a diet that works. Diet pills aren’t working for me anymore D:

Damn, Free People is so nice but SO EXPENSIVE x_x

Lol I love how perfect Rinka looks to do laundry. I am usually in my old shorts, ripped tshirt and just out of bed hair to do my housework.

They should start making bags that say “non” instead of “oui” because i’m not a yes kind of girl haha.. but good eye! things i pick would never show up in a magazine!

How awesome!! I’ve never been lucky enough to see anything from a J-mag in real life. =x I agree, it would tempt me all the more to buy it! But man, it’s so expensive for such a little dress.

I was about to buy something that looks really similar to that! Different colours though. Though … the one I was about to buy was on sale for about 10$. Weeeeird.

If you’re a flattie like me there’s no real problem just wearing it by itself, LOL. Ahhh Asian flat-chestedness. :/

Jenny said
February 4, 2009 @ 2:15 pm

HUM~ What’s the opposite of a flattie?? Hahahah because that’s what I am! *tips over from disproportion!*

ughhh dentist

04/09 | 10:50 am

I have to take an hour off work to go BACK to the dentist. I really dread it. I just want to switch dentists but the work they did needs to be fixed first. I really hate them. They even try to tell me the tooth I say hurting should be a different tooth... wtf??! And I've had 3 bite readjustments already and I think I have to get another today b/c they suck at doing it! UGH. Did I even need a crown!? geezus *cries*
I'm trying to not get overtly upset over it all but I have tooth pain daily. I just want to be able to eat properly again.

(comment?)


Waiting~
