Kawaii Goods Review(┛◉Д◉)┛

 MY PACKAGE FINALLY ARRIVED!!! I ordered three things from KawaiiGoods. This store has great fairy-kei and decora accessories for a good price. The store is starting to sell shirts too! I returned home after my trip and the package was there, waiting for me! I opened it as soon as I got home. Look how adorable the accessories are!




The first thing I knew I had to get was the ice cream necklace. I probably wouldn't have made an order if I hadn't seen it! The string is well knotted and threaded through the plastic. It's also the perfect size (not too big)! The cute star beads seem to be hot glued onto the ice cream, along with the cute bow! It's a really sturdy piece, I feel comfortable wearing it anywhere. It's possible that the stars might pop off, but I could easily glue them back on.





It matches my sweater so well!




The second thing I fell in love with was this cute baby bottle two-way clip. It's both a pin and a hair clip! I love how it reminds me of the toys I played with as a little kid. The bottle cap actually can be unscrewed, so you could hide something inside it (well, it's see through so it wouldn't be so secret). It was so difficult to pick which color I wanted. The pom poms are really sweet, and I feel like I could find something like this in the Spank! store in Japan! It's my new favorite accessory. I like that it doesn't feel delicate, so I feel comfortable putting it on anything.


The pin on the back is very well attached.



The last thing I got because it was so unique, and I wanted to make it myself, but I couldn't bring myself to damage the My Little Ponies I own. It was at a good price, so I figured, "why not?". I actually thought it would be smaller, so it would be a better pin on my shirt, but since it's so big, I think it would look better on a bag or backpack. It's face actually kind of creeps me out... there are some dark smudges on the back of the pony, and on the front next to the eye, there is a streak of grey from the eye paint. It's not the best quality pony toy, but it's fine since it was cheap! The star and bow added to her hair are cute, and both sections of hair are attached by rubber band to her legs.

Can you see the streak to the right of her eye?


The pin seems to be secured, but I worry since the pony is so big (it's about the size of a normal MLP)!


 I undid her tail rubber band, but the hair was bent weird from being held by the rubber band. I also had to trim her tail a little since the hair was all messed up. But if I didn't undo it... The tail just looks so weird wrapped around her leg like that.


I like this pony but it's probably my least favorite item out of the three because of the smudges and the weird tail wrapping.


I will order from KawaiiGoods again, but only if I absolutely have to have whatever it is. The shipping was around $10 USD, which I didn't like... I wish it wasn't so expensive, because these things are very well priced, but the shipping added does make it a little unreasonable.


Thank you so much for reading! Have a good day!

Happy (Late) Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all moms! Sorry I am posting this so late... I made breakfast with my family and went to Washington D.C. for my mom this year. I had a fun time, and so did she. I decided to dress up in a cult party inspired way, because we had to attend an award ceremony for my sister. 

I took some selfies in the car hehe...


The ceremony was kind of boring so I was looking around, and I realized my hands are the same size as my brother's. I'm so pale.... See an 18 year old's hands compared to a 12 year old's hands. I was really bored okay!


My sister was given a flower for her ceremony, so I took a picture with it before it got old. She dropped it later on and it got smooshed. 


And here is my outfit!


Shawl: Some store in Harajuku
Heart Brooch: Moss Märchen
Sleeveless Cardigan: Papaya
Dress: Forever 21
Bag: Vintage
Shoes: Bandolino


Because it was Mother's Day, they were giving out free corsages. My mom got an extra and gave it to me.


It looked so pretty next to my brooch!






I love flowers so much, I hope my garden actually grows this year! But it will probably die like usual...( ̄へ ̄)


After the ceremony, my family went to a restaurant in Georgetown which is famous for it's desserts! It was called Serendipity.


The menu was really cool looking so I had to take a pic hehe.


I had delicious macaroni and cheese with bacon pieces... *drooling*


LOOK HOW PERFECT THIS SPECIMEN IS. This was my favorite. Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream!


This one had cookie dough ice cream with sugar cookies!


So delicious.

There was a beautiful garden that we walked through. The flowers were so gorgeous.


My dad took a picture of me in front of them, but my face was stupid. So, here is my outfit next to the pretty flowers~


I had so much fun that day with my family. Georgetown was a really pretty and cute place, I can't wait to go back there! They have a famous gourmet cupcake place that has it's own TV show. I want to try those cupcakes!
Thank you for reading about my day~

Thrift!


Hello everyone! I went thrift shopping and found so many cute clothes! I was able to get so many because they were all at a ♡insanely cheap price♡! I'm going to show the ones I bought~


I found this blouse to use with Lolita! It's very thin, so it will be good for hot weather. It's more of a cream color so I'm not sure what I would wear with it. I need to buy a Classic Lolita skirt or something!




I also found a pretty flower top! I love the color of the flowers, it is perfect for spring. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)




This one has a more classic or vintage look because of the colors.




I love the unique back!


I also got a perfect flowy skirt for this summer! It's my most comfortable piece of clothing now. I'm in love with it! ヽ(・∀・*)ノ


Look at how pretty the details are.




I also bought a pretty white skirt, it will match almost everything!




And the last item I got is a pretty princessy blouse! ♡





I know I bought a lot of things, but they were all at such a good price that I had to buy them! Thank god I have a job now so I can buy nice clothes (while being frugal)! 
Thank you so much for reading♡
