♡ Monthly Favorites: June & July! ♡

Hi lovelies! Happy Summer!

I cant believe summer is almost over -ahhh i don't want to believe it but time flew by sooo fast! So quick I barely even realized I hadn't yet posted my June/July faves-sooo I decided to combine both monthly faves into one post! I promise i'll post my August faves before the end of the month~

Anyways, here are my June & July favorites! 

♡ Clothing♡



I have totally fallen in love with gingham prints and now I basically buy anything cute i find in this pattern, such as this lovely dress. It is so me!

♡ Jewelry ♡



♡ Accessories ♡




Ariel is one of my fave Disney princesses (along with Jasmine) so when I spotted this case I just had to own it~~




Cute purse I received from my mother as a gift! Glitter is just one of my favorite things and I can see myself carrying this for special occasions. 

♡ Gaming ♡



Tbh animal crossing new leaf will forever remain one of my favorite games. Most people feel as if its charms fades but really it only gets more exciting~

♡  Plushies ♡



My first piece of ghibli merch! (excluding dvds of course!)

♡ Other ♡




I remember seeing a lot of gyaru in magazines like Egg and Ranzuki with cute huge headbands which they used to hold their hair up during makeup tutorials and such, and I finally found a hello kitty one recently! I literary wear it all the time I'm relaxing at home~

♡ Makeup / Cosmetics ♡

Of course my favorite fragrances and body products were going to be included. 

I love anything vanilla or coconut scented, and this mist has the loveliest vanilla scent, it's not too strong instead it's very pleasant and light but lasts all day.

I tend to stay away from scented lotions but I instantly fell in love with this product. The lotion doesn't irritate my skin and has a wonderful berry scent.

I mentioned a box full o lip crayons i purchased a few months back, and I have slowly worked my way through the box of various lip tints. From orange pinks to maroon and I totally fell for this plum colour. When it comes to lip colour I am very particular to my everyday look, but I was very open to the lovely colours this brand provided.

I also discovered Ellen Paige lip glosses and came to really like her products. Especially this orange-pink shade!

As for my cleansing products, I have totally been blown away by and impressed by st.Ives peach wash with beads! My dermatologist and several friends actually recommended it to me, so I decided to finally give it a try and I have been very pleased with the results. Perhaps I'll do a review on them or a "facial cleansing" post sometime~

♡ Music ♡



Golden Touch - Namie Amuro



Morning Musume - One Two Three to 0 (from their NYC concert- which was amazing!! Read about it here!)



Red Velvet - Ice Cream Cake
I can proudly say I know the dance to this~



Davichi - Two Womens Room

Ever since I first listened to Davichi a few months ago, I knew that they were promising musicians and I loved every single song of their I've had the pleasure to listen to. However the tune and mood of Two Womens Rooms sends shivers down my spine, it's so emotional and different and so is the message in this particular song. And simply how they portray that message. I recommend this song the most on this list. This song actually makes me wan to learn to play that guitar and I'm determined to at least learn this.

♡ TV Shows♡

I am always willing to give unique shows a chance and I can honestly say that there is no other show in existence quite like Sense8. It's concept is just do beautifully executed and written from the characters personalities to their background and as an admirer for culture around the world, this show really did it for me. I highly recommend it, the writers are just so open minded it amazes me hoe perfect this show actually is. I really hope they make a second season. It has a lot of nudity tho ^///^



As a huge fan of Marvel (and superheroes in general) I was surprised to find out I hadn't given this show a chance, but when I finally did I absolutely loved it and couldn't stop watching it- cant wait for season 3!

♡ Manga / Anime ♡

Ore Monogatari

Gangsta is probably the furthest genre of manga could have pictured my self reading a year ago but after reading about it on tumblr and seeing occasional scans of it, I decided to find out what it was really about -and I came to really like it. I'm so tempted, however, to put down the manga and watch the anime -which premiered recently- but I really want to get a little further into the plot which I know for  fact will be dismissed in the anime( surprise, surprise).

Himouto! Umaru-chan is a very silly and humorous anime. It is definitely of the otaku/NEET genre but it has it's charms.

Well, that's about it for this monthly favorites post! Keep up with my shenanigans on my twitter, and look forward to my August faves coming up within the next week or so. 
I hope you all liked this post, do comment below what you thought and any questions you may have!

♡ Free Comic Book Day + Weekend Adventures ♡

Hi lovelies~! Happy Spring time, the flowers are finally in full bloom here and it's just so beautiful outside! 

This post is a little bit of a life update as well as a haul post from the things I got on free comic book day. If you don't know what free comic book day is, it's an annual events that takes place on the first Saturday in May! And several comic book stores participate in it! I was lucky enough to be on a trip with my best friends up the East coast, and stopped in Boston where there were plenty of huge comic stores and attractions by Universal Studios and DC comics. I''m personally more of a Marvel fan though. 

Speaking of Marvel, before going on this trip, I made it for the midnight premier of Avengers: Age of Ultron the night before our road trip! One can argue that , that's not the best idea but I love Marvel and the fact that my favorite character, Scarlet Witch, was going to be introduced into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I had to see it! 

I can proudly say I saw this movie last month! The movie was spectacular by the way, of course it wasn't accurate to the comics, but it was above my expectations and I would gladly see it again, I actually already have plans to see it this coming weekend~!(just nerd things ^~^).

 ♡ Haul!  ♡

I purchased and received some comics for free from local comics book stores. Here are the items I purchased.

I love my girsl of DC comics tote and new comics!

I purchased this adorable tote from the Justice League store at 6flags for only $10!

Where as I bought my comics at a local store in Boston city.

Avengers, Jem and the holograms, Avengers: Scarlet Witch and Vision. 

After watching Age of Ultron, I shipped Scarlet Witch even more with the vision so this conventionally placed 8 volume comic was definitely coming back home with me.

I spotted this Jem and the Holograms comic by sheer coincidence while i was scanning the Avengers shelves. I was introduced to the Jem comics through tumblr and wanted to own some items of my own, so of course I purchased it as well.

I love the art on the comic!

This is one of the free comics I received!

Marvel X Attack on Titan!

♡ Boston City! ♡

I had the pleasure of getting to travel with my class before the year ends and we graduate! It was great getting to spend quality time with my friends and everyone I've gotten to know throughout the year(s), even those whom I don't regularly speak to often. Here are some of my favorite photos from the entire trip (didn't want to spam with too may).

Edgar Allen Poe statue! One thing about me is that I lovelovelove horror, whether it be books a=or movies, especially books because seeing something spooky is entirely different from being able to allow someone to imagine the horrors themselves with their own imagination.

 roller coaster park

I had a great time and these are memories I will always cherish!
