So the weather has chilled a bit and the sun goes down sooner :(
So I'm now addicted to dark colors and vampy lips!
Here's my new stuff^^
H&M printed dress with beaded details and basic black top
Cut out sleeve sweater from Cloud 9 clothing and sheer gold top from Ann Taylor
Mesh crop top and mesh &velvet top from Urban Outfitters
Side slit maxi skirt and asymmetric faux leather skirt from Forever 21 (photos from Forever21.com
Lace neck dress and sheer black blouse with gem accents also from Forever 21 (pix again from forever 21)
Awesome jewelry I found from H&M for super cheap! Love their sales
River Island gold and pearl earrings from ASOS and some nail deco gold studs and foil
Aaaaand to top it off! A lovely vampy lippie from Revlon. Number 663 Va Va Violet. A few coats of this and you'll have a lovely deep purple black color!
And then work got busy, which means that life got super boring/mundane.
But I'm back to give more blah updates with a splash of obsessions (basically what I was up to).
First things first...Nikita!!! I've been watching it non stop in my free time on Netflix. It's so action-y and completely awesome!!! I watched the entire first season within two weeks and am almost done with the second :)
Second obsession...and perhaps quite dorky...is reading. Don't get me wrong, reading is extremely important (I feel my English getting better already) and totes awesome, but it's the book I'm reading. *Shameful sigh* Sherlock Holmes. This is a book I randomly bought in Japan before I left to go home. I wanted something to read while on the plane (which failed btw) but anyway, now two years later I finally picked it up again and I'm addicted! I like to read it on the way to and from work and basically anywhere else I can sit and focus.
The book itself is just a compilation of many of his mysteries/stories and is so interesting! But I find myself imagining him looking like Robert Downy Junior from the films lol...dunno if that's a serious problem or not?
Whew...ok time for last obsession!
***Gummy***
Gummy bears you say?
No! The fab Gummy from YG family of course :) I have loved her since her mini album a few years back, and now she has a new Japanese mini album *yaaaaay*
The title or single track is Shinjiteru, which I think is being used in some drama or movie. To be honest I paid no attention to that but just sat and repeated the short 2 minutes of the song in her mv.
After about a week or two of that the album is finally out and it's great!
Always love her soulful and elegant voice.
And even more soul and emotion can be found in Lee Hi's new song and mv, Rose.
I am really a huge fan of the new star because she's so cute (and awkward on programs) and nice. Doesn't hurt that she's also YG (they seriously do a great job). But anyway, enough blabbering...here's the vid :)
Ok, I think that will be it for tonight.
Sorry if there are more typos than usual, I have a dangerous mix of sleepy/tiredness going on as well as a new set of claws. I would take a pic of the nails, but frankly I don't really like them. The guy did a pretty hack job and they didn't have rhinestones or pearls (what tha?!). So epic amounts of glitter had to try to make up for it. And even if they were drop dead gorge, my phone is seriously on the fritz and well, I find it easier not to use it unless absolutely necessary lol.
Just going to do a quick post before I delve into my more "effort inducing" ones that I've been avoiding...
But in my defense I've also been pretty busy (which is also quite surprising).
This past week I've been on the go almost non stop and I love it!!!
But more on that later, here are my fave songs/vids for now.
My loves are back!!!
This song is classic awesome U-Kiss with their awesome voices, cool dance moves, and hot facial expressions <3
So I'm an avid YG fan (go YG Fam!) and love their new artist, Lee Hi.
Her mini album just came out and while I like the feature title (It's Over), I found this song to be sooo uber cool. It's totally relaxing and her vocals show depth and maturity (as usual though).
On to my pure Kpop guilty pleasures. Lately I've started to really get into this newish group called Girl's Day. I love their song Don't Forget Me. So when their new song debuted I had to check it out and let me just say...it is ADDICTING!!!
I love the mature style and feel of the song as well as the sheer bad-assery and the cool makeup.
Unfortunately it makes me want to shop though :(
*side note* While I love Japanese fashion I get influenced by Korean fashion too cuz it's just so cool and simple sometimes *end random side note*
Last one! Otherwise I'll be adding endless songs here.
Another cool and powerful "go women" type song is from the group Rania. Some of the outfits are a bit meh in my opinion but overall love the song.

And if anyone didn't know or didn't catch the clues from these videos...I LOVE Kpop. Drink, eat, and breathe it. I've been listening to American pop too lately since a lot of it is really rocking.
But anyway, this is supposed to be a short post. I'll do updates/pictures/haul stuff soon so ya :)
Also, I love music from all over so if you have any recomendations/おすすめ please let me know!
