Another quick post for today. Just wanted to let you all know that pixel eggs are now up! You can adopt as many as you like and they will ‘hatch’ into new pixels on Easter.
Click the image above to view and adopt some pixel eggs. Just make sure you don’t edit the code or save the pixel eggs to your own computer, otherwise they will not hatch.
Let me know what you think! And, as always, I’m open to suggestions!
One more thing, if anyone is interested in buying/ordering from Sechuna I know the Sechuna LJ community is hosting a group order. The deadline is February 28 though so hurry if you want to get an order in!
I’ve brought back an old shop item – Bottle Pets! Bottle Pets are fully customizable tiny clay animals/characters in a glass bottle surrounded by the items of your choice.
Currently the photo examples are pretty old and I’ve improved my clay sculpting skills since then, but hopefully I’ll get some orders and be able to post newer images.
I’ve also updated the shop with necklaces, rings, and other items!
I was in the middle of an update yesterday when I started to feel sick so some of this is a day late. I think I might be coming down with a cold but I’m trying to rest it off in hopes that it doesn’t get worse. I’m pretty happy lately though because I found out a couple days ago that I was accepted for a summer camp counselor position. The summer camp is a couple hours away from New York so I’m hoping that I’ll be able to visit the city on my days off.
There are some new AP images up (a divider and two images)~
Also I have some new Angelic Pretty shop images for you all today. I love seeing the inside of their stores, the decorations are always so cute.
I bought a couple more things from Liz Lisa in preparation for spring! I think the skirt I bought is from their winter collection, but I plan on taking off the removable ribbon and pearl brooch and wearing it for spring.
And I bought this top in pink when I would have preferred white, but I found it on auction for 4,500yen (it usually retails for around 7,245yen) so I got it anyways. I don’t ever wear pink so let’s hope it still looks good!

And finally here are just a couple more Liz Lisa auction highlights. Just to clarify, I’m not selling these items. I just try to find good deals on mBok and pass them on to you!
Liz Lisa’s spring 2010 online catalog is finally up!
You can view the full flash version of it at the Liz Lisa website. What do you think? What are your favorite looks?
I was browsing Strapya yesterday when I saw this adorable Rilakkuma iPhone case for sale, but it was sold out!
So I checked Google, eBay, mbok and even yahoo Japan for the original Rilakkuma case (it comes in Korilakkuma and a dark Rilakkuma version as well, which were way easier to track down). Finally I found it for sale on the San-x website.
I really like my current phone deco and I’ll be sad to remove it, but this Rilakkuma case was too cute to pass up. I also decided to upgrade my makeup bag to a cute Rilakkuma pouch I bought as well.
Had to use a shopping service for everything, but since I already have an order going with Celga it doesn’t make me feel as bad to use one haha I’ve found that once you get an order going it’s a lot easier to just keep adding to it, which may or may not be a bad thing.
I have a new sales post up! Check it out here~

Has anyone seen the new Tarina Tarantino collection at Sephora?
I personally think it looks gorgeous! And there is currently a $500 Sephora spree contest going on at http://ttbeauty.com.
My favorites from the collection include the dollskin cheek blushes as the Carved Rose and Charm colors remind me of some gyaru model’s blush. There are also amazingly cute accessories up, including the multibead stretch bracelet. I want one!!
And now for some Liz Lisa auction finds!
This skirt is from the new Liz Lisa spring 2010 collection and retails for over 6,000yen!
I really like this skirt, the design is so cute. I’m not sure if it’s new for spring, but I think it fits nicely into the current spring looks.
Even though winter is coming to an end, I think this set is a really good deal for only 2,000yen.
I quite like this onepiece, even if it’s not really my style!
This is another spring 2010 item. It’s so cute!
Let me know if you liked these auctions, if you’d like to see more choice auctions, or if you’d like to see choice auctions from other brands!
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I hope everyone has a special day even if you’re single like myself haha~
Yesterday was spent making a trip to the store to pick up groceries so no excitement there, but I did pick up some frames for a couple crafts projects I’ve been wanting to work on for awhile.
Handmade Baby the Stars Shine Bright collages. I’ll be putting two up for sale tomorrow along with a handmade Alice and the Pirates collage. They can be hung on the wall or set standing upright on a table or desk. Some more handmade jewelry will also be put up for sale tomorrow – I’ll post the link here when the sales post is up!
I’ve been combing through a lot Liz Lisa and Tralala auctions lately, looking for cute spring pieces, and in the process I’ve found tons of items. I know it can take awhile to find anything good so would anyone like me to post links and pictures of some of the best auctions?
Also here are some of the newest looks from Liz Lisa’s spring collection – enjoy!
And last thing, there is a new Liz Lisa style background up!
So I had the phone interview for the teaching internship in Japan today, and it went really well! Usually you have to wait a few weeks before being notified whether you’ve passed the interview or not, but it went so well that the interviewer invited me to a seminar on the spot! Luckily the seminar is really really close so I won’t have to travel far. I’m really excited because, in the email, they stated that if you get a seminar invite you have a good chance of being hired. It probably helped that I’ve traveled a lot and have experience working with children in other countries. But I don’t want to get my hopes up too much because it’s not a definite thing. Still completely made my day though!
Click the image above to check them out!
That’s about all for today, I promise I’ll have a substantial blog entry up one of these days haha
More spring purchases~
Loveee this shirt, the print is adorable!
I’ve been admiring this necklace for awhile, and now it’s on sale. Even though it was sold during winter I think it will work well for spring!
This necklace was also on sale. I might take the ribbon off of it since I just wanted some strings of white pearls.
Next I’ll be getting a couple Liz Lisa onepieces and then I’ll call it quits for awhile haha.
I got some really exciting news today! I applied for an English teaching internship in Japan earlier last month and today I found out that I passed their resume process and qualify for a phone interview! I found out about the internship through my university, and it turns out they pay for a fully furnished apartment, internet access, and round-trip airfare. Plus the pay is about 90,000yen a month. Honestly just the experience would be amazing enough though. My appointment is set for Thursday, wish me luck!!
Is anyone else loving the new Valentine’s items on poupee?
The limited kitten items are my favorite so far. I bought two, in brown and purple! I probably would have bought pink too, but it sold out too quickly. There are also a lot of cute items in the jewel area but all my money is currently going towards my wardrobe.
I’ve pretty much completely switched over into spring clothing mode and have decided to start building up a spring wardrobe asap. That should give me enough time to get together spring outfits before spring actually begins here. So I bought these Liz Lisa boots on mbok last night~
I’ll most likely be basing a lot of outfits around them. Liz Lisa’s style seems to have western influence this year, which I am strangely beginning to like, so I’m sure the boots will be a staple item if I want to buy more of their clothing for spring and summer.
I’m also going to be doing a Sechuna order within the next week or so. I have a couple of friends from Korea who will likely be assisting me with the order <3 Shipping will be about $50.00, but one of my friends is going to be ordering from them too. We're hoping we can find another person to get in on the order to keep shipping down.
This onepiece is a must have! Love the fit of it and the color.
The top is also on my list. It’s so cute and simple.
This would be so cute with a top bun.
