Gal Meet up in Munich

Hi sweeties <3

Originally I wanted to post this already on sunday, but as I was going to vienna and forgot to take the SD-Card with the pics with me it had to wait until today.

Last time I already told you that we were going to Munich on saturday. Lovely Rin and Yaya organized a small Gal Meet up and as munich isn't that far away from my home town (~3 hours going by train) we decided to go there.
I had to get up around 6 to do my hair and make up. Well in the end I had to do my make in the train. We arrived at the Ostbahnhof around 12 o'clock and then went to the Mainstation. We were a little bit late and really anxious because we didn't really know anyone, after all it was my very first Meet up.

Everyone was so sweet and I was really happy to get to know everyone. We went shopping together and ate at an awesome restaurant in a mall. I had a superyummy Pizza with salmon and rucola. (I will have to add the picture later D: seems like I forgot to transfer it to my pc)
I only bought a new red nail polish by NYX, because my old one is almost empty and the red is soooo beautiful! It's the colorway Cherry Pie. I will show it to you some time soon as I plan to do a new nail design with it!

It was a real pitty that some of the girls had to leave so early and we didn't think of taking pics ealier, so there are only about half of us on the pictures. Here are the pictures that were taken with our cam!

Everyone looked so good! It was a really great day and I'm soooo happy that we decided to go there.

We left Munich around 7 p.m. and arrived back in salzburg around 9 p.m.. During the trainride we played UNO and talked about the day and back in salzburg we had a rather late dinner at McDonalds.
Before we left for home we took some more pics in a kind of parking lot. It was so funny and at some times we just had to laugh so hard that it was impossible to take any pic at all. So here are some more pics!

We got home around half past eleven and after taking some more pics went straight to bed. All in all it was a really awesome day!

So in the end I've got three more pics for you :D I hope you all had a great weekend too!

Here's my outfit (first pic without a jacket :D)

And this is the best shot of my make I found. I love hoy my hair looked that day! I guess I will wear it like this more often in the future!

Love, M.

Hi sweeties <3

I just came by to give you a quick update on what's going on in my life! I'm training a lot lately and I do spend a whole lot of my time with playing Carte. I really learned to love this game. This weekend I even played with a korean super high level player... and well I lost but it was sooo much fun! In the end I'm still a newbie :D
When I'm not training or playing Carte I cook for my family, study chinese characters, look through new Gal magazines and try out new MU styles.

Today a big part of my mothers family came together to have a belated easterbrunch at a greek restaurant, which is quite close to where I live. I love to eat there, but somehow I always feel incredibly bad after being there.... I guess I should just eat less :DD The food is incredibly delicious! Today I had duck with orange-honeysauce and a delicous gratined potatoes.

I love to kinda shock my relatives with my stylings, so today I thought it would be nice to wear something a little bit gal for the first time when meeting up with them.

So this was my outfit for tonight: My new maxidress, which I lately got at Forever 21 for about 23€, a lace bolero from Forever 18, the shoes are my sisters and I think she got them at Deichmann and lastly I wear my wonderful silky straight wig in auburn from Lockshop.

And here's a close up of my make up. First I forgot to put in the lenses and when I did put them in I somehow disliked how it looked all together. I think my eyes look too large with these lenses combined with this MU.
I think all over it looked good but I could have done better. What do you think?
Also should I post more Outfits? Productreviews? Anything else you would be interested in reading? Just let me know!

I hope you had a great easterweekend too.

Love, M.

Nails, Nails, Nails

Hi sweeties <3

I guess everyone knows that nails are a big part of the gyaru fashion. I love that there are so many ways to wear your nails: short, long, oval, sharp and edgy, with lots of bling or just plain.
Within the last years I wore quite a lot of false nails but due to the natural shape of my nails they never really fitted. I really love long nails but my own nails are kinda thin and tend to split, break or rip, so last october (I think it was october) I decided to get a UV-curing lamp and gels and did my own gelnails. I really love crafting and creating little things so I wasn't really afraid of doing it on my own. I guess the first time they were pretty much okay, but nothing more. By now I found out how to make my nails look really good, how to shape them and what gels are best for the modelage.

I bought the Jolifin Starter Set and I'm so happy I got this one. The quality is really good and it comes with everything you need.

I'm always looking for new inspiration. Google and Youtube can be really helpful but also blogs of some lovely gals are full of nail art and other inspirations.

I guess these are the most common shapes for nails and even when not wearing false nails you can wear great nail art. Just take some time, look for a picture of a nail art you'd like to do, get some nail polish and get started!

Lastly I want to share some of my recent nail art. I'm not really able to put on too much bling, because I work as a casshier and my nails usually are totally ruined after work, so I just decorate my nails for special occasions and stick to cute polishes for my everyday life.

This is what my nails looked like after doing them for the first time.

My Valentine's Day nailart (inspired by cutepolish)

This is what I wear right now. I love Polka dots and pastels as they are perfect for spring.

Two days ago was the end of carnival so me and some friends were going out and as I didn't dress up I just made my nails to look a bit like minnie mouse :D

And last but not least a rather blurry pic of my outfit of that night.

Oh and I got the blush I was talking about last time and I love it!

I guess that's again more than enough for today. So I hope you are all well and have a nice day!

Love, M.

my past week

Hi Sweeties <3

So as I already promised you I will now talk about my last week.
Last sunday I've at a Lolita meetup in Vienna. It was the 7th anniversary of the premier of Shimotsuma Monogatari (Kamikaze Girls), which is one of myfavourite movies, because it reminds me of me and my friends a lot. So we watched it together at a small cinema where you can rent your own cinema. We had very much fun watching the movie. My boyfriend and even another non-loli friend and her boyfriend joined us.

Sorry for the bad pic, we were really in a hurry. So this was my outfit for that day.

The four of us afterwards went to a games-con called Game City, which took place at the vienna town hall. They presented a lot of new games, but the only one I was really interested in (NFS The Run) was "not available" for testing, as there where like hundreds of people wanting to test it. So after taking a quick look at every thing we left again.
The things that were most impressive, yet not 100% worth buying, were: Tekken x Streetfighter, The Legend of Zelda , NFS The Run, all of the Kinect games (they seemed to real fun), Uncharted 3 (they had an amazing booth) and there was some kind of Games presentation/testplayingthingie that was installed inside of an Audi which was constantly moving like a lowrider.

The 26th is a national holiday in Austria. We celebrate that we declared to be eternally neutral on 26th of October 1955. So everybody had a day off and I went to vienna to see my honey. We wanted to go to the city to visit a museum or something like that but in the end we used up all of or time gameing and watching tv together. The weather was not very good and I hate going out when the air is too damp, because it makes my hair look even worse.

And then finally on friday a very good friend of mine, my sister and me went to the Schallaburg, which is a renaissamce castle that was turned into a museum. We visited an exhibition about Venice, which we've been looking forward to for all of the past week. Unfortunately it hasn't been even half as good as we expected it to be. The title was "Venice -Seapower, Art and Culture". Well every second sign said that venice was a really important haven... the paintings were soso. But they had some awesome panorama drawings of venice which were unbelievalby detailed. They exhibited a lot of books but unfortunately the only thing you could see where the frontpages of most of the books. All in all it was absolutely not worth the money we paid for it (8€ with student dicsount, 9€ for adults).

Well I had a great week and within these last days a lot of new things arrived here too, but I will tell you about that in another post.

Love, M.

Chitchat at the Mc Cafe

Hey sweeties <3

Today I met a friend after university. I know him since summer 2009. I had bought a magazine about Japanese Lifestyle called "Peach" and in each volume there were two or three readers featured. When I read that he was from Linz (which is quite near to my hometown) I just had to send him a message. about a week or two later we met for the first time and became really good friends.
On sunday there will be a concert by Versailles ~Philharmonic Quintet~ in Vienna and he is attending too (as are some more of my dear friends <3). So we met today because he needed some special parts for his outfit which I fortunately had at home.

We went to a quite new mall, which is called "Lentia City", in Urfahr, which is something like the north district of Linz (yes, this sounds way cooler than it really is XD). We had drinks and sweets at the Mc Cafe. Here's what we got:

He had a frozen caramel coffee without caramel unfortunately Q.Q and an apple pie and I had a chocolate frappé and a strawberry cupcake.
We kept talking for quite a long time and it was really fun. We talked a lot about fashion and hairstyles. He just got his hair dyed and it looks soooooo amazing *w* I really love the color. Well anyway the point of this hair talk was that he helped a friend of ours to decide on a haircolor and then he showed me the pic the used as a sample. While he was looking for the pic on the mobile he told me that I look a lot like the girl in the pic. I was really excited to see her!

It's Sakochi! My big inspiration <3 I guess this is one of the nicest things anyone ever said to me regarding my style.
Afterwards we went back to the center of the city. I had to buy something for my mom and he wanted to get Xboxlive points to download Crisis. Well I had to go home at about 2 pm as my mom is coming hom from her vacation today and we had to tidy up the flat.

Love, M.

Curlers & OOTD

Hey sweeties <3

Last week I finally bought myself some new curlers! As most of you may know my hair is naturally curly but it's really damaged from bleaching and straightening so the curls don't look very good most of the time. A few weeks I bought this amazing curling spray from john frieda which really helps a lot but I was still not satisfied with the outcome. So when I was at one of the local drugstores I got some curlers (and as I realized I will need some more xD) and the result is really amazing <3 (as I am posting this from my phone all of the pics will be at the end of this post) the curls looks super natural and the hair doesn't look as dry as ot does usually. Plus I already slept one night having these curls and still they look good.

While I am writing this I am being on a train to vienna. My boyfriend texted me today telling me that he will me at home already today, which was really surprising to me as he usually wouldn't have got home before friday. So I'm going to see my hun already today and I'm really excited to see his reaction to my new curls :3

The last point of this post is my outfit for today. I felt really good when I woke up this morning and I wanted to show it off so I chose a quite colourful yet decent outfit.
Jeans: Zara
Shirt: H&M
Cardigan: offbrand
Shoes: Pastry
Accessoires: Newyorker, Forever 21
The foxtail is from canada and the chains are handmade by me.

I bought some new makeup about which I will post either this evening or on saturday.

Have a nice day <3
Love, M.

P.S.: I did some nailart recently that I wanted to share with you. I hope you'll like it.

Hi sweeties <3

As my boyfriend will be here in about one hour this will be my last post for this weekend.

I woke up way to late but thanks to my dad early enough to get ready to meet my boyfriend at the train station.
For today I did a more natural daily kinda make up with my new quattro. I really love the colors and how they match my skin color so perfectly <3

So here are some photos from today:

Hope you'll enjoy your weekend <3
Love, M.

just a quick trip to the city

Hi sweeties <3

At first I wanted to go to vienna to meet my boyfriend there and take him to my hometown. But only a few minutes after I left my home he texted me to tell me that he wont be allowed to leave the post today. I was really depressed at first because I spent two hours on finding an outfit, doing my hair and make. But I had to go to the city anyways.

So I went to a drugstore to get a special detergant for my dad because he constantly stains his shirts with ballpens. But as I couldn't find the detergents at first I just looked through the make up part of the store and found some stuff to test.

Here's what I got:
-an essence eyeshadow quattro (02 - chic-ify) containing: peach, a warm light brown, glittery black, glittery silver
- s-he x-treme hardener for nails (my nails tend to break like every day so I'm looking for a good hardener to strengthen them)
- essence nail fashion sticker gel style (in two colorways) which I will be reviewing in a few days

I already tested the nailhardener and it really helps a lot. I will go on to use it and we will see if nails will really grow longer. At least I hope so.

And at last I will leave you a few pictures of my self from today (treid to do an gyaru make up again :3). I hope you'll like them <3
Love, M.

So this was my outfit for today~ I was kinda inspired by an blogpost of universal-doll I found today. It's all about OraOra-Kei <3

;p

P.S.: as always click to enlarge the pictures

P.P.S.: I just realized that I look kinda dorky in the second pic but I still like it :DD

Aninite '11

Hey sweeties <3 Finally I have to time to write a review of the con. Due to the time I'll keep it short. After finally finding my workingplace at the con the busy part began. I was working for the tombola and sold fortunes and handed out the prices. It was really stressy but a lot of fun too <3 The visitors were buying forutnes as if there was no tomorrow so we were finished on saturday around three pm. From that moment on I had no work left to do and spent all of my time with my friends. It was an really awesome weekend and I think I haven't laughed that much for a long time :3 hafsahafsahafsa I'll just give you a glimpse on what I was wearing this weekend: Friday: Sylvia on the left, me on the right

Trying to decide...

Hey sweeties <3 Today my sister came back from holiday and she brought me two gorgeous new shirts. I'm thinking about wearing one of them for the upcoming convention. As I told you yesterday I'm not sure whether I'll have the outfit I originally planed to wear on saturday ready until then so I had to find something different. So here I'll show you three casual outfits I thought about:
