New clothes from Yesstyle

Having half of my clothes in my dorm room and half at my mother's apartment, it took me some time to get pictures of everything. Nevertheless, most of the clothes are still for sale on Yesstyle, so this post is not too late.

I don't usually like anything with a flag on it but the colour choices on this shirt really appeal to me.
Those light purple spots weren't on the white cross before I washed the shirt.
 Worn in my previous post.


This super cute t-shirt by JSG doesn't seem to be available anymore.
I haven't washed it yet so I don't know if the black fabric on the back will stain the shirt.
EDIT 4/4/2014: It didn't. :)
Also worn in my previous post.


This hoodie by Rina is my new favourite.
 


This shirt is absolutely beautiful under jumperskirts.
The washing tag was originally white but the shirt coloured it in the first wash.



 I wasn't sure if I should order this shirt but I thought it could be nice for winter.
It's quite difficult to get the sleeves fall nicely.


Lastly, I got this gorgeous necklace.
It was packed in a beautiful little box.


I am more than happy with everything I ordered except for the last shirt.
The clothes are really accurate to the stock photos but obviously run a little smaller on me.

I will make sure to make my next post sooner. I have most of it done already so it should be up in two weeks. And I shouldn't need to have long pauses between posts this spring because I am expecting a couple orders to arrive next month and have some other plans too. :)

Outfit post #20

Living by the school has made me really lazy to wear anything fancy. And those few times that I have worn something, I haven't felt like charging my camera to take pictures. Now that I have only two and a half months of school left I am going to force myself to wear something else than just plain jeans and hoodies again.

Headbow: part of the skirt
Necklace: Fanplusfriend
Blouse: Anna House
Skirt: Bodyline (L368)
Boots: Bodyline

I ordered some shirts, a hoodie and a necklace from YesStyle.
I am going to make a post about everything I ordered later but here are two of the shirts.
Kitty ears: Bodyline (ACC1091)
Headbow: part of the skirt
Necklace: Bodyline (key chain)
Shirt: YesStyle (JSG)
Skirt: Bodyline (L404)

Shirt: YesStyle (Mini Jule)

A room tour before Christmas

At last I have settled in my new tiny room. It isn't quite as tiny as the rooms for one person. I visited the campus with my father in July and we made an agreement with the staff that I would get to live in a room for two on my own. This means that the room is not only bigger than the single rooms but I also have two chairs, two drawers, two closets and two beds.

Here is my door. As you can see I live in the room 210. On the left is the door to my flatmates room, on the right wall is the door to the hallway and our bathroom is behind the camera.

The curtains belong to the room too. They are not really my style, but I like how they brighten up the room when it's dark outside. The desk was originally under the window but I don't like facing a wall, so I moved it and put the chairs on the other side. The two drawers used to be at the end of my bed.

My bows and accessories are in the drawer by the bed. Lolita shoes I keep in boxes under my bed.

I have decorated my roses to look more festive.
My mother bought me that cute Christmas plant. It traveled here 4 hours in a bus with me.

My father lifted the other bed up when I moved here so I got space for my little wardrobe and clothing rack.

Between them I have two boxes full of crafting and knitting supplies and on top of the boxes I keep my huge luggage bag. I use the bag a lot because I visit my mother nearly every weekend.

I don't usually like wooden coloured furniture but I don't actually mind the colour of the drawers and the desk. The only things that bother me are the wooden parts of the white closets.
Those racks on the closet door are really handy for storing waist ties.

I still need to figure out how to get my dressfrom here. During these months I have realised how much I really need it for planning outfits and taking photos for reviews. Other than that, the room is very cozy and will serve well for the rest of the school year.


P.S. The fabric eating bugs might never go away but at least I can try to fight them with our cute vacuum cleaner.

Outfit Post #18

I found some time to post between lessons and the internet seems to work a bit better at midday.

I haven't got to know people at school that well yet, so I've tried not to wear anything too bright and "childish".

On Tuesday I wore punk lolita.
Skirt: Bodyline (P197)
Socks: Bodyline (socks387 & socks503)
Shoes: Antaina (QutieLand)

On Wednesday I went for a softer look and accompanied my Fantastic Dolly replica with some punk elements. I think I should have worn the same shoes as on Tuesday but otherwise I'm really happy with the outcome. I even got compliments from people I hadn't talked with before.
Headband: Bodyline
Choker: F+F (w/ lace in the 5th pic)
Vest: Bodyline
Dress: DoL (QutieLand)

I'm still trying to figure out where to put all my stuff in my new room but it has started to feel like my own.
I am thinking of making a post about it for the next time.

New place, slow internet

School has started and I am now living on my own for the first time in my life. This room I'm living in doesn't really feel like home yet. It's so strange to have to take the key with me every time I need to use the bathroom or to just get a glass of milk. The hardest thing to get used to is that dinner is at the school canteen so I can't just go to my room and study (or surf the internet) for hours after the last lesson and then eat something late in the evening because the dinner is always served at 5pm and you have to be out of the canteen by 5.30pm.

Strict eating schedule, of course, is not the reason I haven't been blogging in a while.  I've had enough time to write I just haven't been able to actually get the text out there because the free wi-fi at the campus is really bad. On top of that, last weekend my new laptop stopped connecting to the internet completely because Norton's free trial ended. Do not use it! Luckily I was able to remove the program with my brother's help and my laptop is working fine again.

This post would look really plain with just text in it, so here is a picture from my new room which still needs to be organized.
It took me 20 minutes just to upload this one picture, so don't expect me to post every other week like I believe to have promised. I will get a USB modem for my laptop as soon as I can afford it.

New layout

I got tired of the darkness of my blog so I decided to change it.
This is what the blog looked like before I made the changes.
I created the banner and the background using Paint.NET.
 The font is called "AR Berkley" and these are the pictures I used to make the banner.
The layout is very simple but the banner itself took me 5 hours to make so I hope you like it.
