Sweet Tooth

Lately besides work all I do is shop and eat, and by eating I mean lots of sweets. Some of the delicious things i have found, are...

A mirror decorated as a biscuit! Absolutely Adorable. By the brand 'Twinkle Twinkle".

Shirokuma, a famous kind of shaved iced in Kagoshima. Topped with condense milk, fruits and jelly.

As mentioned here, I have been frequenting this place quite a bit trying all the different cakes. Here is their Strawberry short cake...and my god it is good.

A little cafe my friend introduced me too. Cheese cake and a cutely decorated cappuccino♥

Donuts!! not as good as cinnamon donuts but probably the best donuts here in Japan...where the dough tastes similar to a traditional cinnamon donut.

Chanel - Les 4 Ombres

So, I didn't bring any sort of make up with me overseas and I really needed eyeshadows for work parties. And what better one than CHANEL! it's the new autumn collection! I am really excited my first Chanel purchase ever :D

Now I won't look so underdressed!!

Queen of Hearts

I've been thinking of a center piece for my table and then it hit me, what better than using a bouquet of roses. Inspired by the Queen of Heart's gardens from Alice in Wonderland. Simply got a small vase, red and white roses, wrapping paper and ribbons.

Wrap the wrapping paper around the glass vase, the one I chose was a material like paper. Held together with a hearted ribbon.

Red and White roses like when Alice painted the white roses red.

My new Alice in Wonderland center piece!

2011.09.17 - L'Arc~en~ciel 20th L'Anniversary Tour : Fukuoka

After a three year hiatus, my favourite Japanese band L'Arc~en~ciel has gotten back together again for their 20th Anniversary tour. Luckly my ticket was really really close to one side of the stage, my god I could see their faces clearly. The last concert I went to was in 2008 for their L'7 tour and Theatre of Kiss Tour. So seeing them again after so long is very nostalgic. Lead singer Hyde looked the same as always..that boy seriously has not aged, I would like to know what he does!

As usual I bought heaps of stuff...

5.05pm and the lights turn off, scream starts and the whole stadium is filled with a sea of rainbow lights. On the stage behind the band they had an orchestra in a huge cage. They start 0ff with Niji, Seventh Heaven and Goodluck my Way and 4th Avenue Cafe. After Hyde talks to the crowd and tells us how they are now 20years old, and that they are so old. He then says the venue Marine Messe Fukuoka is way too long to say, so he gives the venue/us a nickname "Mari-Chan"♥

Of course they sang Revelation with fires coming out of the stage! Awesome stuff. Also they sang my favourite tunes which includes Honey, Drink it down, My hearts draws a dream. After Hyde would scream "Mari-Chan are you Fucking Ready?!" and Ready Steady Go starts us going crazy. After that drummer, Yuki goes on a crazy solo, he put all his energy in it but in the end he stops and falls backwards. I thought it was hilarious but after that the crowded got worried and our intermission was longer than usual.

After the intermission there was a slide show from Laruku's early days up to now. Which was really nice to see :) They introduced the song XXX with the video clip playing at the back, Hyde saying it was a song for adults :P Link was also sang! Which god I love that song and they ended the concert with Anata, with pretty white petals falling from the sky.

Overall it was a great concert!! it was great seeing them again!! I am very satisfied :)

Coharu Masking Tape Printer

While shopping around after work, something cute and unique I found was a Masking Tape Printer. The tapes come in all different patterns and colours, the font can be changed and you can either write in Japanese or English.

A very cute little printer, and I have been pretty much labeling everything I can :)

Tiffany & Co

To celebrate my first pay check here in Japan me and my friend decided to get a momento, and what better than a Tiffany necklace. Both of us have never owned anything from Tiffany's so it was really exciting to choose something we would remember forever. Plus the Tiffany blue packaging is just too good to pass.
We wanted to get bracelets but in the end the print wasn't big enough to see and from afar it looked like a normal bracelet. So we choose a necklace that not only had the Tiffany& Co print on one heart the other heart had the trademark colour :) Maybe as a one year anniversary I will get myself a Louis Vuitton bag :P :P

Anniversary

There is a really adorable cake store near my place and finally my friend and I got the courage to try it out. The cake store is called "Anniversary", not only can you order cakes for all occasions but you can eat there too. It has really become my new favourite place♥ I plan to go at least once a week to try out all the different cakes☆

Blue Hawaiian. Jelly dessert topped with lots of fruits and gold flakes.
