Hello, everybody!

Recently I bought a sweater to show my love for one of my favourite KPOP groups, VIXX! Just thought I would do a quick review in case everyone is thinking of buying something like this~

I bought the sweater off of eBay, from the user koreapopfan:

I got a bit excited and took it out of the packaging as soon as I got it, haha. It was neatly folded inside a plastic packet and that was inside a hard paper package:

It was such nice quality and very clean! If that counts towards anything, you never know with Internet purchases!

I always wash new clothing before I wear it, but I made the mistake of putting this jumper in the wash instead of hand washing it. What was even worse is that my dad put the clothes through several washes because he accidentally put detergent in it. Why is that bad? Well, the letters and logo on the jumper started to peel a little and crinkle - I was so sad! I haven't had a chance to wear it and I was already in a position where I thought I might need to buy a new one.

Luckily, it wasn't so bad, still wearable. I just need to find a way to flatten the lettering and make it neat again, but it's still disappointing. First and last time I put clothes like this in the wash.

You'll see my face one day, I promise, haha.

Remember to be careful when washing your clothes guys! Especially stuff that is handmade or ordered online.

Despite that, I still really love it. I wore it when I stayed over a friend's house with a group of people and even though most of them didn't know VIXX, they said they loved it (and despite it being ruined by the washing machine as well) and one of them even recognised the group! Music brings people together, haha~

If you're looking for a KPOP merchandise seller on eBay, I recommend you try koreapopfan!

Enjoy life!

Hello, friends! ♥

I know for sure how difficult it is to easily access fashion from other countries, such as gyaru clothing from Japan. Sometimes, we have to compromise and make do with what we have access to. I think there is always a chance of finding clothes that match the style you want. 

Depending on the style of gyaru you are looking for, you can always find items that fit that style and build a collection from which you can pick from and use to layer on top of one another. Starting from basic clothing items, layering, is a good start.

Looking at some photos for inspiration - it's very easy to build a gyaru style from clothes you would find in any store. I find blacks, whites and pinks to be very common. Again, depending on the type of gyaru you are going for, you would be looking for statement pieces that are quite fitting. Or, if you're looking for the more hime or girly gyaru style, you would be incorporating a lot of lace, frills, flouncy fabric and floral patterns.

I think something important that can help sway your fashion style is accessories. As I said before, you can find some basic clothing pieces and then layer more clothing and choose socks, shoes and jewellery to compliment your outfit and make it complete. I mean false lashes, socks and fake nails are also found here, right? Makeup plays a huge part as well.

This post is a bit of a trainwreck, but I'm writing this post just to say that, if you have a set style in your mind and know the clothes you want for it, you can look for it in stores and begin building your dream wardrobe! Good luck!

Enjoy life!

Hello, readers!

The other day there was a sale at a store called Rivers in Australia, and although their ads sometimes makes it look like they have clothes and shoes that aren't that nice, my mum and I get a lot of stuff from there.

Anyway, I mainly wanted to do this quick post because I'm a person who's logic is to not spend too much on something when I know I can get several things for the same value. I don't mean one thing that is really good in quality exchanged for several things of lesser quality, I look for several things of the same quality as that one thing. If that makes any sense.

Anyway! Here are a few photos.

These were really cute and a really comfy material! (Sorry these photos are the odd ones out, haha~) They came in a brown which probably would match my clothes better but I liked this colour a lot.

After schoolies, I realized how much I needed a pair of walking, beach kind of shoes so I got these bad boys in a pink (there was no other colour and most of my wardrobe is pink anyway)

I wanted some neutral coloured flats that I could slip on quickly that would match most of my outfits.

These were so cute and elegant, I had to get them. I probably have enough wedges and boots but these were more dressy. I can't wait to wear them!


So this was a bit quick and simple, but I'm thinking of more about shoes lately so I started adding a few more to my collection~ If anyone has any recommendations for shopping for shoes online, let me know!

Enjoy life!
