Evolving to a better self ♥

Today I started with Insanity Workout ♥
Crazy, it's really INTENSE. To be honest, I hardly pulled through. lol
Felt a little unsatisfied, so I did an extra session of Elliptical and Squats. =P

I wanna have this sexy body...

Before or after, I'm actually fine with both. lol

This is an old photo...

...I always hesitated uploading it because I HATE my face and hair on it...
However, I thought the code was cute. lol
*derp derp*

I did a thing...

...and I don't regret anything ♥

I've wanted a fringe for so long...
This year, I went to the hairdresser multiple times to get a fringe cut, but I always left the salon unsatisfied... the hairstylist was really sweet, but too chicken to cut off as much hair as I wanted...

Since I'm a diy person, I spontaniously grabbed the scissors today. 

Very happy with the outcome ♥

I feel fresh now ♥ Younger, more energetic ♥ And sexyyyy ♥
Even though I'm not wearing any make-up, and just a lazy shirt. lol

Pardon, pardon... ;)

My hair looks long, but it's soooo broken at the tips... might still go get a haircut next week. =P

Say Goodbye... Say Hello?!

Many things have changed recently.

We (my husband and I) have moved to a bigger place, and we both LOVE it here. It's a bit far to go to work now, but living in our "little palace" is definately worth it! ;D

Now everybody is expecting us to have kids soon. lol 

It's quite annoying!

Such big changes in life always influence our personality, don't you think so?

For me, it did. I kinda lost track of what I loved the most... Gyaru.

Beeing so busy with life, Gal magazines vanishing, and the general decrease of Gyaru culture... maybe I simply forgot about Gyaru? However.

I started to loose track, and just found my way back.

Please, I don't wanna be mature yet, okay? I don't wanna have a child yet. (I do love kids and want to have at least 2, but not now... even though I'm getting old?)

I wanna enjoy Gyaru. Wanna travel around the world, wanna travel to Japan. Once in my life, I also wanna go to shop a fukubukuro at Shibuya 109. Let me stay like this a little longer...

I wish I can feel the same passion for Gyaru that I had 5 years ago... I've just browsed some old Blogs from Gals of "my" generation... We're have you all gone? Most of those blogs died out 2013. Pathetic me... I wish I could turn the time back... Can I find all of you back please?

I'm not depressed, just... nostalgic?

I wanna be back!

Please let me be back!

Melancholy~

Aaaaah, I feel like I'm getting old recently. lol
Looking at my past... I feel like I have so many things to look back to. Whyyyyy... when did life become so stuffed and complicated? xD"

I miss the carefree times, but it also somehow felt good to settle down recently. I'm starting to become a really good housewife and create a cozy little nest for me and my hubby. Nothing bad about it, right? =3

We finally got a dishwasher!!

FREEDOM.
I tell you. Best investment EVER! xD

Our kitchen is small, so we can only fit the chibi version of a dishwasher in there. xD"
I also sorted out lot's of kitchen machines that constantly got into my way, and got myself a ALL-IN-ONE kitchen machine...

NEW LOVE.

 It's called "Thermomix", and there's nothing it can't do. Smash, steam, boil, make ice cream...
If you talk nicely to it, it might even curl your hair and tell you compliments ♥ ...uhm yes. xD
(My sexist coworker called it "housewife playstation". ~.~)

Hello?
Did you fall asleep already? Haha, you probably did. xD
Enough of that boring stuff!

 

Even though I enjoy settling down, my love for fashion and make-up has never been stronger. =)
I can't believe that I'm into Gyaru for 6 years already, can you?! 

I'm recently looking back to where I came from, and to be honest - I had a good laugh about it!

Laugh with me! ;D

 Back then I thought my look was THE SHIT. xD
I remember how proud I was to wear my first pair of plain black 14,2mm circle lenses and that unstyled Cyperous wig from Japan. lol

But I'm very happy that I kept going on from that point. Practise makes perfect, right?
I didn't reach perfection yet, but that's okay - I'll be on my way. =)

I also came to remember my Western Gal Idols from my beginner Gal times... do some of you know the names Pin, Riv Riv, Monica Tang, Viivi and Zhi Zhi? Oh god, how I loved their style (though I'm sure they're all still gorgeous nowadays) - they've been a great inspo and motivation, so I guess I owe them a lot... thank you from my heart ♥

 

Beeing stuck in my memories, I also started collecting "old" Ma*rs items, that were super trendy when I started Gyaru. I managed to get my hands on these babies recently ♥

Lovely ♥

The furry one is a bit tacky... but I feel like that's exactly what I WANT atm! =P
Aaaah, I miss the times when Ma*rs still did those over-the-top designs... nowadays it's only flashy prints or toned down x golden buttons... =/

 

Also, after lusting over this for 3 months, I got myself a Coastal Scents make-up Set!!

 Brush Set, Lip Color Palette, and Eyeshadow Palette - WORTH EVERY CENT!! I've never had higher pigmented cosmetics, I'm super satisfied! I will definately buy from them again! =)

I feel like my make-up already improved because of it! Oh, and I also think I stepped up my Gel-nail game! =P

Definately not perfect, but I'm on the way. =)
From the "design", this is my favorite so far! =)

I love to do experiments and try new techniques, so I actually already removed these - I wanna do new nails tomorrow! 

I wonder if I should go for

Kuronba style Zebra & silver glitter & pink
or

Mature style Nude & navy

Hmmm... we'll see... ;D

 

I also did some experiments with my style recently...

Dug out my black wig. lol

Hmmm, this actually make's me wanna get my bangs cut... 

Nah, forget what I said. I'm too chicken to do that anyways. lol

Dark Coord

Spiderweb Shirt: Ghost of Harlem
Tank Top & Skirt: Glavil
Rest: Offbrand


Super basic Coord

 Everything Offbrand

 One of my favorite and most comfy looks recently ♥


Gyaru Lovers Winter Meetup Coord
(Had to cancel last minute because of personal reasons)

Jacket: Ed Haardy
Top: H&M
Skirt: Selfmade
Belt: d.i.a
Rest: Offbrand
Yes. I reached another level. I became so picky about my clothes that I even prefer to sew my skirt on my own. lol (True story. None of my skirts satisfied me, so I altered an old dress)

With my d.i.a jacket, the look is completed ♥

This is how I would like to see myself all the time. ♥ Happy Wish ♥

I hope I can improve my style a lot more in the future, there's still plenty of way to the top! ;D

Today, I cleaned up my closet... so now I have 1.945.573 Outfit ideas, haha!

My Gyaru closet ♥

This makes me so happy. ♥
Cought myself sitting in front of the closet and staring at my treasures for 30 minutes ♥

On the other hand...

 I feel like a fu***ng brandwhore, and somehow have to question my spending habits... is this really okay? ^^"

Nyah, most of the tags were from my Fukubukuro anyways... ^^" *trying to console myself. xD"*

TEASER:

Next up: What was in my d.i.a & Glavil Fukubukuro? ;D
See you soon!

Update! ;D ♥ International Gyaru Lovers Winter Meetup ♥ Amihamu LOVE

Hey Gals,

I'm gonna make a short entry today... have to go to bed soon, work starts at 6 a.m. tomorrow! ;D

I got my ticket for the International Gyaru Lovers Winter Meetup in January!! SO HAPPY!!

Now I'm searching for a nice Hotel in Frankfurt, close to the Main-Station... but I heard there's the biggest red-light district of the city! O__O

Most of you will possibly think: "So what's the problem with that?" ... Argh, I wish I could be that cool! xD" I'm coming from a tiny village, so things like red-light districts scare me a lot! I just don't know what to expect from this! xD"

Anyways, hope to overcome my fear. lol

I'm gonna travel to Frankfurt by highspeed-rail. I hope to arrive quite early on Friday, so me and Hubby can go on a big shopping spree!! Frankfurt has so many stores that are unavailable in my area (OMFG PRIMARK!! TAKE ALL MY MONEYYYYY!! xD), so I gotta make a big use of that trip! xD

I'm very looking forward to meet lot's of awesome Gal's and Gyaru-o, also some of my Gaijin Gal Idols ♥

(MAGGIEEEE, SIMONA, ZUKA, KITAI, ...(the list goes on here... xD)... I'M WAITING...... ♥♥♥)

Hope to see YOU there, too? ;D

 I wanna try new things with my Make-up and Hair recently...

I'd really like to level up my Sujimori skills!! I actually practised a lot, but in the end I always failed... I think it's because of my curling irons - I just don't have the right barrel to create nice waves! Also, most of Sujimori tutorials I've watched so far are working with... HOT ROLLERS! :'D

So I've got myself a box of used Remington Ionic Rollers. ;D

Can't wait to try them out ♥

Also, I found Amihamu's Instagram recently... SO INSPIRING!! She really motivates me to push myself further in order to improve!

I also just got myself a pair of red lenses, haha. xD

Some impressions of this Godess:

LOVE this photo of her ♥

Those red lenseeeees... ♥

Inspired by her, I tried another Goshikku / Rokku coord the other day!

Dress & Garter: Glavil
All the rest: Offbrand

It's interesting how this dress seems to be so long in the front, but barely covers my butt in the back. lol *forever fat ass*

I also tried a different eye-make... I came to like it a lot! I just wish my lenses weren't so basic... =/ It's the only pair I have atm, black ring lens. Q__Q

I wanted to try this hairstyle for soooo long! It's actually rather easy to do, and it gives a cool sidecut effect!
BUT: Taking out the rubber bands was a pain in the ass. :'D My hubby had to help me cut them out, and I almost fainted because I feared he's cutting my hair! xD"

Btw. I really hate my nose... I even debated with myself over a nose surgery. lol I got some good advice, so I'm gonna try finding some suitable nose-make-up tutorials, maybe I can "visually" shrink it... somehow? xD"

Off to bed now! Good night! ♥

ZZZ zzz ZZZ ♥

xoxo, Chira ♥

Summary of the past weeks! ♥

Hey Gals, how was your summer?

My summer was basically non-existant, due to horrible rainy weather in Germany... I rarely go the chance to wear any of my sexy summer clothes, what a giant waste!! I'm still upset that autumn is already here... Q__Q

I've been asked why I went on a hiatus again... it actually has a very happy reason! I'm getting married this month! ♥ (Just at the register office for now, but yay! xD)

I'm super excited and happy, I hope you all can be happy with me! 25.10. will be the big day ♥

Well, but such an important event also comes with lot's of preparation work... which explains my hiatus, I think. ;D

I'm going to wear my Jesus Diamante dress for the wedding ♥

I hope I can be a beautiful bride ♥

Some of you might know that my future husband is coming from Taiwan... his native languages are Taiwanese and Chinese (but he's also fluent in English and German), so I decided to learn Mandarin!

Obviously, this is just a random page of one of my study books. lol ~ Way too advanced Chinese here! I'm still at a beginner level. =P

It's still quite hard for me, especially because of the writing... I have to work out a learning strategy. xD" Thanks god I have the best teacher at my home ♥

Besides Chinese, I also improved my Gel-Nail skills, I guess! ♥

Favorite Nail-Set so far... I especially liked the middle finger! That's gonna be my wedding nails ♥

My coworkers always make fun of me, because any of my nails looks different... they won't believe it's supposed to be like this. lol

That was my Mermaid-style Nail-Set... wasn't too happy with this, but at least it gave me a little summer vibe.^^"

I also got new clip-in hair extensions from dirtylooks! They're really fabulous ♥ But I had a hard time to tone them to the matching color...

Left: Original Color, Right: After toning 3 times

And it's still not perfect yet! xD" Don't know if it'll ever be, but I'm not giving up! xD"

So... as I'm already talking about my shoppings...

 2nd hand d.i.a shorts ♥

I'm so happy to fit into d.i.a pants, I can't even describe the feeling! ='D

Super sexy d.i.a pants! Needed them in my life after I saw Yumachi wearing them on an EGG photoshooting ♥

 2nd hand d.i.a top! It's super sexy as usual, but unfortunately it makes my boobs look like meatloafs. ~.~ I guess I'm going to sell it soon!

ABSOLUTE FAVORITE D.I.A SET-UP SO FAR!! 

The first time I saw it on mbok was in February... but I couldn't bring myself to buy it, because it was quite expensive. Same thing in April, and then I couldn't forget about it anymore. (God, I am so sick. lol) When I saw it still for sale on mbok last month, I took a heart and bid on it! BEST DECISION EVER!

The skirt has built in shorts, and the material is fluffy and warm! I already have unlimited outfit ideas with this! :´D

Super comfy Ghost of Harlem shirt, because I'm absolutely into wings atm! ♥

Super cute Ma*rs Set I exchanged with Chewiee ♥ That's actually the back of the top, the front is just plain black - thought this side is more interesting. =P

Somehow I didn't take any full outfit photos recently, just some snapshots... but better then nothing, I guess. =/

That's actually a year old, I just happened to find it on my cellphone. lol

I was in Tokio back then, this was my cozy outfit for exploring Ikebukuro. =) I've met some super sweet girls at the train-station back then, they were all like "Wah, kawaii! Neko-chan!!" I wish I would have been brave enough to ask for a photo with them, they were so pretty and cute! Q__Q *forever too chicken*

Topic of the day: Put as much d.i.a on your body as you can. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. lol

Aaaand the cute Ma*rs Babydoll I just bought from Sui Princess ♥

What a mixed entry this has become! xD" But that pretty much sum's up the past weeks! =)

Thanks for reading, I'll try to blog again soon!

xoxo, Chira ♥
