Second time at King's Hawaiian Cafe & Shore good.

The second time I ate at King's Hawaiian Bakery & Cafe, I tried their breakfast.

The first time I blogged about in my food blog: To Be.

We started with the Spam Musubi, which was good.
The pickles were a nice palate cleansing touch.

The french toast was a good size, but I wish it came with more breakfast-y stuff and fruit.

Butter, I love it.

New Year's Eve 2013 in Catalina!

For New Year's Eve 2013, we went to Catalina Island for my first time!

And we rode a ferry, because it's an island.

On the boat ride over, we entered some misterious fog that created a blurry rainbow which followed the boat. Later, I saw a few dolphins and tried dolphin calling, and suddenly the rest of the pod surfaced.

SacAnime 2014: day 2, Harajuku Gyaru, Pizza Tradition, Lolitas & Doctor Who~>

Day 2 of SacAnime 2014. The night before I struggled to coordinate something. I wanted comfortable yet cute. This is what happened.

I started with the shoes, which are very comfortable, and have Unicorns! ( More details on a future Japan L.A. haul post.) Then I decided to wear my Mars skirt with a pink top. I tried the Angelic Pretty Lamb top, and from those basic colours I added the tights, and accessories. The feather boa was a practical afterthought, to keep warm while traveling.

Sunday is the day of the Lolita Tea Party at SacAnime. Although I didn't attend this year, I happened to see a group of friends before getting off the bus. So, Lolita group photo! Cuties!

On the way into the Exhibit hall to help with PipStarPop's booth, I ran into Gina! Cuteness rain upon me. Gina not only blogs and models but also designs.

At the booth, The Doctor passed by, and kindly agreed to some photographic evidence. I thought his expression bore an uncanny resemblance. 

Some, blurry selfies...

So, we asked for help. 

The lovely Lolita below helped take the above photo. Isn't her outfit simply cute?

Sac Anime 2014: Day 1, Visual Kei Lolita~>

Day one of SacAnime 2014! I went to help my sponsor PipStarPop, and was ready for a Visual Kei group photoshoot with Ying and Darla. If you've seen my previous blogs, I'm not very experienced when it comes to Visual Kei style, but I just dive into it my own way. (Thanks Darla for taking outfit shots!)

Top: Sixh

Skirt: hNaoto

Shoes: Y.R.U.

Hoodie: Glavil by tutuha

Necklace: 6% dokidoki

Black roses: Black Peace Now

Feather Fascinators and bow clip: PipStarPop

Bag: hNaoto Frill

Make up: Sugarpill

For a base of Visual Kei and Lolita, I started with the Sixh shirt and hNaoto skirt. I then added the Glavil hoodie, for a punkier twist, and then the red and black tights and spike shoes. To continue the devilish look, I used the Frill winged backpack. To draw out a bit more white, the neckrope. Let's just say the make up and hair accessories were sprinkles on this Visual Cupcake.

The lovely Dalek bedecked lady below was just so cute, I had to capture her. Also, you get a peek at PipStarPop's booth.

On the 2nd Day of Christmas my True Love gave to me: Two Golden Geese & a Portrait of a Girl Purse.

Purse & Rings

I recently bought these rings and purse from my sponsor PipStarPop. I want to call these Geese-a-Laying Golden rings, but they may not be at that stage of their relationship yet. I love how in-your-face (well, actually on-your-finger...) these rings are, yet they are classical rather than sweet style.

Rings

The purse sold itself with the fork-in-mouth graphic. The only minor part I dislike are the zipper-pulls, but I plan to modify them, and for the price, it's a useful two-way bag, which can be hand carried or thrown over my shoulder. I even have a method to loop the strap through the handle into a backpack.

Purse

The dress is an Orla Kiely collaboration with Uniqlo.

Dress: Uniqlo x Orla Kiely

Shoes: Rockport

Stockings: MaruQ

This toned down outfit is for the Holiday Meal at work. I have just a touch of Mori (Forest) & Natural style, and the new items from PipStarPop, fit right in. 

These potatoes were especially good, with entire cloves of garlic inside.

Harajuku Holidays~♥

This is a neat clip from my sponsor PipStarPop, with two parts.

I made a colorful and busy outfit to match the clips.

Dress: Uniqlo x Sanrio

Coat: Watarouka 7 x 7-11

He-who-shall-not-be-named's Birthday Weekend 2013: Fashion, Beer and Ramen

This post features two outfits and items from my sponsor PipStarPop! PipStarPop's items range from Sweet to Elegant. They match well with Gyaru & Lolita styles, or for a bit of Decor in everyday wear.

Both outfits are relatively simple, comfortable, and fun. The first outfit I will show is a super casual Gyaru outfit. It is super casual because it incorporates a t-shirt and no make-up. The second outfit I lovingly call Grandma-style Gyaru, obaachan-gyaru, because the vintage-inspired dress looks matronly.

Bunny Lolita~>

Hello Friends & Lovers, this outfit is based on the Pink Bunny headband made by PipStarPop, my sponsor! Because the bunny band is simple and cute, I chose a pink bunny patterned lolita dress in jumperskirt style. The dress also has roses and strawberries motif, so I paired it with strawberry patterned knee highs and red flats. Even my hairstyle is simply pigtails.
