♡ Cutest Japanese Style Magazines (Cdjapan) ~ October&Novemeber issues! ♡

Hi lil' buns~!

I was in the middle of yet another Japanese magazine haul when I realized that I hadn't made any posts about Jmags in a long long time - and I have discount codes to share!

As my sidebar indicates, I am in affiliation with CDjapan and by purchasing anything from their website (anime figures, DCs, magazines etc) you automatically get a discount through any of their links on my blog! -How great is that! You can also type in the code "misumipyon" before you check out during payment on their website.

So here I am with my first Jmagazine post of the year, with perfect timing for the October-Halloween and pre-Christmas time of the year~ 

Here are a few Jmags which I purchased and found really cute, among others:

Ranzuki

♡ November 2015 ♡

Zipper



Larme

Popteen

KERA!

I am so tempted to continue collecting Japanese magazines because they are so cute and very inspirational! I am always looking for something new to inspire the way I dress, and Japanese magazines never fail to do just that. 

Although a lot of J-magazines are obsessing over pastels right now and a similar Larme-kei approach to their fashion, I personally don't mind it as I love those two things very much. However I do miss being exposed to a new style and sense of fashion from each individual magazine. And seeing the old school / original gyaru style completely become 'extinct' (for lack of a better word) it saddens me, and I continue to hope that that style will be revived. Perhaps modern day gyarus, who don't live off on the original sotry and theme of the original gyarus, should name themselves something other than gyaru. I still do admire their style, don't get me wrong.

Anyways, I hope you cuties liked this post and if you have been considering buying some Japanese magazines of your own, you can find these links useful.

Thank you for reading!

♡ Kawaii Amazon Haul ♡

 ♡ Hi lovelies! Long time no see, but I'm back with a new post! My Amazon accessories haul~

Lately I have been doing tons of shopping off Amazon because I found the most perfect Japanese street style inspired accessories, as well as a few adorable phone cases. 

All for only $10! ♡ 

 ♡ I received these 5 well and safely packaged orders ♡ 

5. ♡ Aztec print iphone case ♡

 ♡ I also got two iphone 4S cases! Both are super adorable but I was little disappointed with them. ♡ 

 ♡ The first package I will share with you, is an Aztec print in blue and black as a gift for my sister! I really love the design and its just wonderful, but here's the upsetting part, the Aztec pattern is a little pixelated and not clear. It looks almost like someone tried to make a small picture wider and the result was a pixelated clip art. However it's barely noticeable especially from far, but if one where to get closer and admire the lovely design, they would notice the pixelatation instantly. Otherwise, I am somewhat pleases with this purchase, it was only $2!  ♡ 

 ♡ My sister loves it! So everything went well in the end ^^ ♡ 

4. ♡ Mustache Ring ♡

 ♡ I saw this adorable mustache ring.  ♡ 

 ♡ I was a little upset about the size of this ring, as adorable as the mustache is. I was hopping it would fit the length span of all my four fingers, however I still think it was worth the price. I t was only $o.36! Yup!  ♡ 

3. ♡ Spike Headband ♡

 ♡  My favorite of the accessories I got, is without a doubt my 3 in one spike headband / bracelet / necklace! I can wear it all three ways, isn't that convenient!? ♡ 

 ♡ I've been wanting to own one of these for a long time since they got popular on the streets of Harajuku last summer.  ♡ 

 ♡  They seem to be made of a very light metal, which also very glossy and not metallic looking. 

The placement of the studs is very secure and sturdy, so I don't have to be worried about them falling of. Although  if I decide I want to take them out I can do so with a screw driver! Hopefully the elastic of the band holds for a long time, so I don't have to replace it.  ♡

 ♡  They are also very light compared to what I originally thought. 

It literary looks amazing all three ways. I will most likely wear t as a headband more often than 

another way. I got if for $5. Not a bad price considering i've seen it on some etsy stores etc for abut $10 and  up. ♡ 

2. ♡ Stitch iphone case

 ♡  I saw this stitch phone case tons of times on tumblr etc and I've wanted a case for myself for a long time now. I was finally able to find a cheap pair while browsing phone cases and I bought this little guy for only $2!  ♡ 

1. ♡ Lashes ♡ 

 ♡  I have been wanting to get some falsies for a while now. And now I finally own some! They are really lovely and look almost like the Eyemazing No.105, the ones Kyary wears often times, and I adore them so much~  ♡ 

 ♡ I also found this set of 10 full lashes for only $1.34 !  ♡ 

♡ Over all, I am very happy with this purchase. I got a few goods from my ever growing wishlist and a nice gift as well. All at low prices too! ♡

♡ However, I don't plan on purchasing much from Amazon again, I find that Ebay has a better selection of goods and they come at better prices. So until my gift card runs out of money, I will stick to ebay, unless Amazon has something I need.  ♡

♡ My New Combat Boots~ ♡

Hi cuties~ 

♡ Happy new years and happy Martin Luther King Jr. day!!  I hope you all entered the new year with a positive attitude and smiles on your faces. I still cant believe its 2014 and not 2012, i'm still living in the past it seams, but i will make the best memories this year and live life to the fullest! A big thank you to him and his work, that has made so many people live good lives in today's society.♡

♡ Anyways, I have yet another review to share with you today, but today they are on shoes! ♡

Tada~

♡ I got this pair of adorable lace boots at Rue21 during a sale and  I just had to share them with you lovelies. They are currently my favorite pair of boots! ♡

♡ I really love these boots because they aren't like most combat boots i've seen--they have lace over them and they are white. But one of the best things about them is that they can transform and you can wear them in two different ways. ♡

♡ They can be worn at their normal height OR they can be folded down  and worn as ankle boots with a pretty design in the inside showing~ ♡

♡ The stitching on and in the shoes is pretty good. And it isn't too noticeable because it blends into the lace pattern, which is really pretty.♡ 

♡ The little strap on the back makes it easier to put them on, just slip a finger in and pull them up. ♡

♡ They have pretty solid grip and I would wear them in snowy weather and even when its icy. However they don't seem to be suitable to actually step in lots of snow, I wouldn't go out to make a snowman with them on. 

( pay no attention to the stickers ^^" ) ♡

♡ At the top of the boot, there are two little 'hooks' on each side of the laces that make it easier to tighten them when making them ankle-boots. I will most likely change the shoelaces to light pink or black. ♡

♡ They magically transform from regular sized combat boots to cute ankle boots~! ♡

♡ Transformation complete~! ♡

♡ On the inside they have an adorable flower pattern in dark and light pinks surrounded with black, 
adding a little color to the boot. ♡

More Details:



 4/5 ♡♥♥♥♥

The fabric is a little rough but that's ok because they're shoes. The lace texture is pretty tough and wont rip easily, it's also very pretty and the shoe isn't too white, its almost cream.

 5/5 ♥♥♥♥♥

They aren't pure white they look kind of cream but shiny. So if they get a little dirt of them it's ok but I still have to be care full!

 4/5 ♡♥♥♥♥

♡ They are pretty comfortable an have a squishy cushioning inside, they are super comfy with fuzzy socks. I plan to wear them with paste outfits and dolly-kei themed outfits. ♡

♡ The second pair of boots I got are for my sister as a Christmas gift. She isn't a big fan of pastels so these are perfect for her. ♡

♡  They can also undergo a transformation from smaller ankle boots to knee high boots.

This transformation is all possible due to this little clip over here. ♡

♡ When you un-clip it, the shoe is able to unfold and transform into knee high boots! ♡

♡ Look at the difference!! ♡

♡ The zipper is then able to zip up all the way ♡

♡ And those are my newest combat boots~~! ♡

Thank you for reading~~!! I hope you enjoyed this post~
