I´m so so so sorry

 

 I’ve got lost again. 

 Somehow, I’m not really enjoying life right now. I’m constantly tired and my circulation is going completely haywire ... and that’s even though summer has finally arrived in Germany.

 Cosplay is taking up a large part of my free time right now. 
But starting in August, I want to take a step back.

There’s just one big event left after that: Pixelmania and my birthday .... and then I’ll need some time off.

I’ve been browsing Buyee and Aliex a bit again lately.

Following the new EU regulations, I decided to make a "test purchase" to see how strictly the new rule regarding the €3 fee per product category is actually applied.
I’m hoping there really won’t be any extra costs. 
(Aliexpress certainly claimed I wouldn’t have to pay anything extra at the door.) 
Yet, the additional costs ended up being €3.75... I’m confused. 

 

I also sent an inquiry to Buyee to see if they could help me buy a d.i.a. belt.
For some unspecified reason, it’s no longer possible to order from the d.i.a. store on Zozotown.
I’m curious to see if I can still get my hands on the two belts of my dreams.
I’ve put in a request for one of them.
And there’s another one on my wish list.
But as you know, d.i.a. belts are incredibly expensive, so I’ll have to save up for the other one. 

 Here are my purchases from Aliex:

A new phone case from Mofusand

A friend of mine just hyped me about Mofusand ... and now I'm obsessed ... lol 
There were soooooo many cute cases. I really hope this one protects my phone adequately.

Do I need another bag? 
-no

But this one is a look-a-like from LizLisa ♥ and on the costumer pictures they looked okay. 

These are two customer photos, for example.
Pretty decent right?

The Original

I think an attempt was made to imitate this design.

At the current exchange rate, this bag would cost around 70€, 
and then shipping costs and customs duties would be added on top.
I'd roughly estimate that it would come to around 100€.

I paid just around 17€ for that, including customs and shipping. 

 

 and last but not least

 A Ma*rs setup look-a-like

I saw it at Georgie months ago and was impressed by how pretty it is.
I didn't want to buy it right away. So I waited to see if I would still want it after some time 
has passed. And here we are now.

The setup doesn't look exactly like it does in the photo - as you can see from the customer photos.

But still, it is very, very cute.

This is a costumers piccu.  (✪㉨✪)

 

I’m not making any promises this time about posting regularly again, but I’ll give it a try anyway :D 

 

Thats all for now ♥

キラキラ DIY

 

 Hello peeps! („• ᴗ •„) 

Today I spent the day doing DIY projects. First, I felt like crafting a necklace, 
and afterwards, I decoden an old USB adapter. 

 It really felt good to simply do whatever I felt like doing again.

 

My next project should include this beads. But I'm not sure which design I wanna do.
Now that summer finally arrived in germany I felt like more colorful outfits.

 

I'm not finished with the adapter yet—but isn't it just adorable? 
Everything is キラキラ!

 

 

At the end I also decoden some fake nails. Maybe I make a set out of it.

 

 What was your latest DIY project? let me know in the comments.

のんびりした日

 

lazy day

夏の日 🌺

 

Hello peeps !

Today, I'm simply posting how I did my makeup. It's been a very long time since 
I did my Gyaru makeup ~ although my cosplay makeup is actually quite similar.

Unfortunately, I don't remember where I got them from anymore. But it's a new style.

Here you can see the difference—with and without fake lashes.

Really like this Shein liquid blush. 

 ✧ Finished look ✧

It felt so good to wear Gyaru makeup again. 
So much so that I actually put on an outfit and went out.

glasses ... LipService
Tshirt ... ANAP
Short ... H&M
Belt ... d.i.a.
Bag ... ANAP 
Legwarmers ... SHEIN
Bracelets ... DIY 

 

 

I’ve been planning this outfit for a very long time, 
but I never actually wore it. I admit that the makeup would be much more suited
 to a "Dolly" look rather than a Tsuyome-style outfit like this one. 
But it was finally warm outside ~ which is exactly why I absolutely wanted to wear it. 

 

 ファンタ・エキゾチックが大好きです。
[I love Fanta exotic ]

So I took a few packages to the post office, and then stopped 

by the convenience store [コンビニ] to pick up some drinks and snacks.

 

 

 

Please let me know what you enjoy reading about most. Right now, 
I'm not sure what to blog about. 

 

 xoxo Tamiko
