Family birthday party + new makeup


First of all, I want to thank you all
 for the supporting messages you have given me over the last few days, during this difficult time.
I wannna let you all know that even though my mom is not out of the hospital yet, everyone is very positive about it. The sugery went very well, the doctors have said they think it will all be allright, even though they haven´t had the test results back yet. My father also thinks so, so we are remaining calm for now. 

I have visited my mom twice since it happend, once on Friday and once yesterday, and I am happy to say she looked a lot better allready yesterday! She had even been out of bed to walk a bit :) 

So once again, thank you all! <3



Initially, we had planned to have a family birthday party celebration this weekend. We decided to still go through with that plan, even though my mom couldn´t attend it. I felt a bit sad that she couldn´t be there, but it is better that she remains calm and gets better <3



I was really happy that, in between all this missery the past couple of days,
some nice things happend also! Friday, I got the most lovely surprise in the mail! :) 

I ordered a spiky-flower headband from my friend Saga (Irodohieru)
And I was so excited to see it arrived this quickly! I was so honoured that she bothered making one for me, even though she was actually sold out ;^; (she has a webshop where she sells them).

I had a difficult time deciding if I should get a pinkXblack one,
 but I decided whiteXblack was more versatile :)


I love the headband very much! So I decided right away that I wanted
 to make my birthday outfit with it as my inspiration ^^

Rough Roses☆
Sweater: made by my sister
Skirt: H&M kids section
Tights: H&M, modified
Shoes: Taobao
Headband: Iros Garden
Accessories: Glitter, Kreepsville666

The image of this headband is soft, gentle roses with a rough edgy leather base and
spiky thorns sticking out, so that is what I wanted to make my outfit portrait! I choose my soft and fluffy sweater from my sister, and I took a pair of simple H&M tights that I ripped to look more punk.
I wore my rose bracelet, and my skeleton-hands necklace also!


It is so cold over here that I had to wear a pair of pants when I was over to visit my mom, 
but I changed back again when we came home.


I wanted to try out a totally new kind of makeup after seeing THIS really cute
tutorial on tumblr *v* I just fell in love with it! I will definitely use it more!
I am really unsure about it, because I  didn´t have the right kind of false eyelashes.
I am also quite unsure how I look with only false lashes on the top and not the bottom lashline.
I didn´t even have mascara on the bottom line.
what do you think?




This picture shows the makeup really well, even if the angle is a bit unflattering >.>"
How do you think I did with this makeup?





I was so lucky as to have loads of people be able to step in and bake for my birthday party, so we had loads of cakes and treats! ;A; I myself baked brownies, we had marzipan cake, cheese cake, apple pie, ice cream and many other lovely things ;_; Truly, it wouldn´t be possible
 without the help from my lovely family <3



I had such a lovely time, and I got so many nice things! I was so surprised by all the lovely gifts *A*

I got :
1. Money! And loads of it! They are represented by the envelopes ^^

2. Knitted socks <3 Always a winner :3
3. Makeup! I got two kits with looooads of eyeshadow, rouge, powder, lipgloss
and all kinds of amazing things ;A;
4. A moomin teacup with the image of Thingumy and bob, this made me so happy, because
I collect the moomin cups ;v;
5. Pukka "love" flower tea and rose water set! 

6. The folded, knitted object is acctually a seperate hoodie/collar thing that my aunt made after getting a russian recipe translated O.o Its really cool, so many at the party wanted to get the recipe xD

☆

The huge cupcake is a card! ^^ I love it sooo much ;v; It made me think about
Vanellope von Schweetz, and that made me so happy because I love "Wreck it, Ralph" ;v;



It was a lovely night, really :) We laughed a lot, discussed all kinds of things, and drank loads of tea.
Around ten pm, everyone had left, and I felt super tired... I was so lucky as to get help from my godmother and some of my aunts to clean up before that, so when they had all gone,
it felt like bliss to change into my pyjamas, wash my face and just watch some tv.
I don´t know if it´s possible, but more than anything I felt like I was really hungover or something when I woke up this morning XD haha... and we didn´t even drink any kind of alcahol! Also, I wouldn´t really know about the hungover thing, since I don´t drink, but I can imagine it :P
 I did the last little clean ups when I woke up, and now the house
is as nice and clean as it was before we started! :)


Did you go to a party or
did you do something else fun this weekend?


Next week, I am having a few friends over for a friends birthday celebration :)
I haven´t had anything else than family birthday parties for many years now,
so acctually celebrating with class friends is kinda nice ^^ 



Bye bye for now!

Circlelens2u review + outfits

Howdy!

A couple of days ago, I got my new circle lenses and lense cases in the mail. I was so happy because this ment I could finally try out false lashes to see how I look with them!
Since these are only the second time I have ordered circle lenses, I was very nervous about it! 
The last time I ordered, it was from Honeycolor, but this time a friend of mine tipped me on that I should try this great webpage called Circlelens2u.

They have a great selection of circle lenses, in all kinds of cute designs! The only downer, was that they don´t provide lens cases, so I had to buy those on my own seperately. Luckily I found a really cheap set of ten cases on ebay, so now I don´t have to think of that for quite some time.


Shipping 5/5
I ordered the lenses around the 24th of February. It was shipped out on the 25th.
It took about two weeks (13 days) until it arrived. Exactly as I assumed,
 since it was shipped from South Korea after all ;-)


Communication/service 3/5
I didn´t do much communication with them, but I will judge this from the emails I have got from them after making the order. Even though the package was shipped on the 25th, I wasn´t informed about this until three days later, on the 28th! So it was a bit slow. Other than that, I appreciate that you have the option of checking out as a guest when you order. I rarely like making accounts all over the place if I can avoid it, since I might not even order from somewhere more than once.



Packaging 4/5
When I got the package, it was inside an envelope that was a bit bigger than the box itself.
Inside, as you can see, I found this brown cardboard box with a small strip of tape on the opening.
Inside, the circle lens glasses were packed in bubblewrap. There was no visit card or any sign at all that the package came from Circlelens2u. I think they should atleast have provided some kind of thank you note. Still I give them 4 out of 5 since they had a sturdy and nice packaging!


I got Sweet Cat blue and Diamond Star silver


Colour/effect 5/5
The two pairs I got, are called Sweet Cat in Blue, because those are the ones my friend has, and I wanted to see how blue lenses would look on me, and I also got Diamond Star in Silver simply because the design was so pretty *v* Trying out totally new colours! 
Sadly, the blue lenses turned out very dark on my eyes. 


As you can see, it is only barely visible that they are blue! I really like the enlagement effect these have though. I think they look really nice on me, so I still give them a top score, even though I wish the blue was more visible... 


The Diamond Star Silver ones were a lot darker, and I was really excited to see 
how the diamond pattern would look in on my eyes!
  The enlargement in these are about the same as the other ones, still I feel like they look a tiny bit smaller for some reason. The diamond pattern is quite visible, but I am not sure how I like it on my eyes. What do you think? 


Comfort 5/5
At first, both lense pairs felt a bit uncomfortable, but that stopped very soon. I guess it´s only since I am a bit unused to wearing them, and I haven´t been doing it for such a long time! The blue lenses had this thing that sometimes they became a bit blurry, if I had my eyes opened for a long amount of time, but after som blinking it was quite allright again. With both lenses, they eventually feel so natural to wear that I sometimes forget they are there/have to check
 that they are still in place, haha ^^


In total: 4/5 
Conclution: I will definetely order from Circlelens2u once again. They have such an amazing selection of circle lenses, and even with their small faults, like not providing lens cases, they run a top-marked store that I would reccomend to anyone wanting to order circle lenses :) 




As well as this review, I have some new outfits from this weekend to show you!

 Yesterday, I wore a french inspired outfit. I wore it with my blue circle lenses, and since they are called "Sweet Cat" I tried to bring the cat element into my outfit as well.

 ☆French Cat☆
Shirt: Taobao
Skirt: H&M kids section
Tights: H&M
Shoes: Taobao
Hat: Marked in Paris
Accessories: BtSSB, Claire´s



As you might have noticed, my haircolour is different! I used a white toner in my hair some days ago, to lighten my hair further to prepare it for colouring it lilac/lavender, and because I left it in for such a long time, it ended up giving my hair a light lilac tint! I am going to bleach it atleast once more, before I´m going to colour it for real, and I will let you guys know at once when I do :) 

I will try to post more pictures of my face also ^^"
Would you guys like that?




Wore a cardigan because its very cold here still >.< HQ pictures make my
eyes smaller for some reason XD And I need to cut my fringe >.>


Sexy pout =3= <33




The second outfit, from today is very much like something
 I´ve done before, when I dressed as a witch!
But I wanted to kinda wear it again with my new lilac tinted hair, 
so I tried a new twist at it.


☆Modern-day witchcraft☆
Shirt: Lindex kids section
Skirts: Taobao
Tights: H&M

And some more  selfies! x3 hehe
Really though, I am super duper selfconcious about my face >.>"""



Ugh... my fringe make my eyes look tiiiiiiiiny... so does HQ pictures ;A;




depressed today... yeah... 



Ok, now I just have to post this before I regret outing my ugly face to the world >.>


Do you own many pairs of circle lenses?





Byebye sweeties!

.:★Mahou sweetie + actual lucky gift!★:.

Hi ho hello!

I am so so soo happy today! This week was my last week of the school practice work project, and today was surposed to be my last day at work, but my employer was so kind to me yesterday, and told me I could take the last day off :D HURRAY! ^^ So today I have just spendt the day at home <3

My parents have gone to visit my sister in Scotland for her birthday 
(her birthday was last week, but my parents couldn´t go until this weekend!) 
So they are going to be away until Tuesday, which means I get the house totally to myself until then. I am really happy about that, since we went to the store and bought only the food I wanted and I could choose freely *V* 

So, today I have been really busy cleaning the house! I don´t know why, but sometimes I get this craze to clean everything, and then I just have to do it xD hehe
So now the kitchen is clean and nice, and I have vacuumed the whole house :3 I guess it is because I like being alone, so I like when it´s as good as it can be, and thus clean? 


And so many other nice things have happend this week also! 
Really, I think I have the sweetest followers on tumblr EVER! Some weeks ago, I ranted about how I wish I had more poptarts, because I´d ate the last ones I had, and only a couple of days after that, I got a message from the sweetest girl ever that she wanted to give me some if I could only give her my adress to ship to ;A; I was like... SERIOUSLY?? You´d do that??? whaaah ;A; How come people are so nice to me D::: <3333  I was super duper excited!
And some days ago, the package arrived! And do you FREAKING know what??? She had put so many lovely extras in with it ;A; I wanted to cry!


She even put cute little notes on everything ;v; 
The biggest one says "Hi! I hope you are well and that these brighten your day ^7^!" 
AWWWWW ;A; Thank you dearest Lucy, you really did brighten my day! 
If you want to check out this lovely, sweet girls tumblr please look here:



I took a picture where I had removed all the little notes also ;V; 
so you can see all the goodness better! >v<

Thank you again and again Lucy! ^v^ I can´t wait to try out these! :D I am such a sweet tooth x3



That is not the only recent new thing to arrive :3 
Last week, I got my long-awaited "Candy Party" tights in mint from 


I had preordered them so long ago that I´d almost completly forgotten about it when I suddenly saw people starting to post pictures with the tights on tumblr! 
I was so excited when mine finally arrived, I had to try them on at once :3


I didn´t really have anything planned out for wearing them though, because they don´t really go with my wardrobe XD haha ( I am terrible, because I just buy things I think look great without thinking about if it goes with anything I own ^^"""") 

Also, since it was a saturday, I wanted to wear something cosy and "indoors-y" =v=

☆Cosy Candy kick!☆

Sweater: Milklim
Shorts: DreamV (part of a set)
 Tights: Sweetiecakes
Slippers: H&M
Socks: H&M
Accessories: HolleyTeaTime, Chocomint, Lindex

Also, a couple of weeks ago, after having an oral presentation in front of my class (in english) I was so stressed out about the result that I just had to browse some shops online to calm down. 
I figured I was bored with only looking at things, and wanted to acctually buy some new stuff, so I just jumped to it and got myself a pink "seifuku" from Bodyline :D 
I have wanted one for aaages, but acctually, I am the kind of girl to "go around in circles" around something I want for the longest time before I decide if I should get it or not =v=""" I can never decide! Impulse buying is such an adrenaline kick though, wow :D

It came in the mail yesterday, but I only got to take proper pictures today ^^
  
 I love it so muuuuch ^0^! Just look how cute it is :D 
I don´t get how I´ve not had one before! it looks so cute x3 

I was really nervous about the sizing, since I didn´t want it to appear to small,
 but still not being too baggy! I put together a simple and cute coord with it,
 that I wore today around the house ^^ 
  
☆Kawaii Ko-gal☆
 Seifuku:Bodyline
Tights: SweetieCakes
Shoes: SecretShop
Accesories: gift, HolleyTeaTime, chocomint

☆
 
Can you be really cool looking, and still kawaii? I wanted to look sweet but yet cool and spunky, so I put my hair in a tall, raggedy ponytail with a cute bow that matches my tights ^0< It looks kinda "Mahou-kei"-ish! Cute and spicy <3



 Now, my plans for the rest of the weekend is just having a great time :3 I hope I´ll get
to watch some movies and just enjoy myself =v= life can be so great sometimes <3



Do you own a seifuku ? 
  




Until next time sweeties <333
