21_21 Design Sight



As I wrote on Instagram
last sunday I went to this beautiful museum in Roppongi.
With my bestie♡
Totally my #weekendgoals♡




It was genuinely an inspiring place.
I have been doing nothing but work for quite a while so..
I haven't really been interacting with artworks at all.

It was a big wake up call for me.

So white and so simple, technologies everywhere.
There are a lot of museums in Roppongi but this place now is my favorite♡




This train thing was really romantic. Was like a part of a movie.
It really engages you.




You can have heaps of fun there.
It's a small museum so I don't know if you can spend a whole day in there but
you sure would love it♡




White, my favorite world♡




This cafe was next to the museum
we popped in because it looked cute but
they had beautiful food and coffee.
And smoothie.

I need to have the smoothie next time♡




Whenever we meet we usually meet at 11 or 12 at noon and
go home at 5 or 6 ish to go home and work..

Just that 5 hours is so neccessary to us. So relaxing..


Next weekend I will be doing something else but I can see her in July again~♡

Exciting♡

Beautification♡

Sometimes...
All you need is a Sex and the city...♡




I own the whole series of drama and movies
I just want one whole weekend off and want to watch them all but
just never really got time to...

#HopelessRomantic


Only if I was so good at taking selfies and filming myself
I don't really think I can do a make up tutorial or any of the sort so well so
I can only introduce these beautiful products by describing and by photographing but...




I have been learning a conservative everything,
conservative make up, conservative hair do,
conservative outfits...

and this Estee Lauder lipstick is a sheer masterpiece.

I won this lipstick at a party so wasn't really aware of the name of the color e.t.c. but
it says it's called Sakura blossom♡
How cute!

This is really smooth and moisturising, and it's pretty pink even though it looks really beige.
Perfect for a conservative situation I usually wear it at work♡




Have you heard of this cosmetic brand called RMK?
It's a Japanese brand, they have beautiful pastel colors and foundations.

And of course their brow powders are perfect color for Japanese faces...


RMK was the first brand to advertize eye brow mascara and 
today all the stores started selling eye brow mascaras

their brow mascara certainly is wonderful.
You should use a brush when using the mascara too to comb through your brow♡




I was sort of addicted to MAC lipsticks at times.

Whenever you see a MAC store there are a shelf full of lipsticks right there!
Who wouldn't be addicted to!

This lipstick is "Candy Yum Yum" which is as the name says... Yummy.
( And that's the very reason why I bought it. )

It's very matte and I like the non glossy look.
I before liked NYX vivid pink but this texture is great too.




My Clinique cheek color ( there is a daisy blooming in the case♡ )
is "Ginger Pop".


I was avoiding the sun but I started getting tanned slightly and
I saw my face and I didn't really mind it so

I rather bought a cheek color that matches the slightly tanned skin for summer♡
As everybody loves, I was going to get Melon ( The new color came out in April )
but Ginger Pop was more solid and orange yet pinky.

I introduced this cheek color to my bestie Mina and she (never worn cheek color before) bought it straight away

I think it's a great color, at least it is in summer!♡




Should I slow down?

Recently my model friend introduced Helena Rubinstein mascaras to me.
She said it brings your lashes really up and keep the curls the whole day.

I tried all the Helena Rubinstein mascaras at the store and...
ended up falling deeply in love with this girl.



Lash queen mystic blacks

As you can see there is a brush on one side.
and another side is a comb.

So you brush through your lashes and comb it.
It stays firmly around the eyes and when you comb them...
you can't believe how long your lashes are!

It's really fun to test it even.
I fell in love at first use♡

Hope I can show you sometimes...

By selfie or something... (ugh... giving a try!)


And lastly!

(Thanks for reading such a long article!)




Maybe they only sell these products in Japan.
This hair cream called "Scream"

is a wonderful cream I have met at a hair salon recently.

My hair is super thin and going everywhere usually but
this works better than any oil I have tried.

( I used to be a hair dresser, just saying )

If you are having a hair prob because your hair is thin and not really manageable and such...
you should find a salon where uses this cream and try it♡
( Maybe only in Japan though. )

I think I can go the rainy season this year with this cream♡

Yay!

Thanks for reading! Ask me any questions.

Cafe de la ville



Hello!
It's been a while since the last update...
It's been crazy busy at work last week and
As I wrote on Instagram
( I think I did.... not sure, I did right )
I have been kind of promoted at work and it's been really...
I don't know I have been well anyway busy with everything!


I will need to go through a job interview process all over again and I need a lot of luck!




This is my favorite cafe- Cafe de la ville.
There are two shops, one is this take away stand for French toast.

One is a cafe- a panini cafe.




Oh by the way this photo was regramed by this amazing instagrammer - @mas_fotokopi
And received a lot of likes♡

It's really flattering and I love it when someone likes my photos.
Please tag me when regramming my photos but I am absolutely happy for you to!




Anyway...
Cafe de la ville is a beautiful cafe with a lot of white round tables and straw chairs.
Black and grey sofas and the interior is just gorgeous.




I am learning a natural and office appropriate make up these days ahaha

My office is funky and they don't mind whatever I am wearing- but...
Yea I will have to have a job interview so ( again. )




And of course I went to the french toast store too♡
Strawberry french toast and a cappuccino.

It feels great, not really a place to chill for an hour but it was tasty♡
( As you can obviously see. )

I like both, if I want to eat a lot, definitely a panini store.
They have a different panini everyday so... fun too♡




Yummy!


By the way, I want to say
thank you so much to all the 700 followers.




It's been 2 months since I started instagramming and
there are people who watch my instagram to check out Japan and...
I am really flattered to be known as a Japanese Instagrammer.
( or the instagrammer in Japan )

I like to find beautiful things in Japan and I want to keep conveying so...
Hope I could be a good tour guide to you over instagram!
Providing Japan info for the time you visit Japan~♡




And make up, fashion, inspiration... lifestyle...
everything we need in our lives.

Well have a wonderful week we sure will enjoy it.

Shoeholics are...

Recent purchase list...♡

As I said long ago, somebody told me before that Yves Saint Laurent does the best pink.
So I always chase after the best pink.

And when I am after pink lipsticks I always go back to YSL.




Volupte Sheer Candy
No 9♡




Blush Volupte 2 Seductrice♡

The pink on the cheek looks really natural and glowing♡




When we were young people always said people who own a lot of pairs of shoes are sexually frustrated..
Or whatever, that rumor was going around a lot.

Are they? wait, are we?

Anyway, this pair of lacy high heels from RANDA ( Japanese shoe shop ) are just wonderful.
They first felt a bit strange but they are perfectly fit now and I just wish high heels were a part of my body.

Ah we gotta love perfect high heels♡

Yokohama Walk Two

Firstly... 

I have recently got Tumblr and Flickr account!


Stay connected♡



So this is the second article of Yokohama Walk♡
It might go over another one more... so many photos!

Hope someone enjoys the Japan photos♡


This is Motomachi shopping street.
Downtown-like but posh♡




This is where I come to, when I want to see the roses.
Yamashita-Koen ( Park ).

This green... aw, so soothing.




I was too late to go there but usually this place is a huge rose garden in May.




Beautiful Sunday♡
The photogenic water fountain is in the middle of the park!




Other side of the road, there are beautiful buildings.
Wedding photo~♡




Hydrangeas started to bloom....♡

The white ones are called "Annabelle" which is my favorite.
June will be an exciting month too!





It was a real hot sunny day...


And I walked back to the station.




Minatomirai Station
Amusement park!

Looks like a little town♡




Inside a shopping center~♡




Yokohama is a place where industrial things and nature meet.
I find it beautiful, there are skyscrapers and... flower blooming.
Well, surrealistic sometimes.




This summer feels♡
I want to go up to the top of that balcony! that's so cute♡




I was so, so tired after walking all around Yokohama and...
went home, realized I got so sunburnt.

Haha :( Need to be real careful this summer!


Thanks for coming by and hope my information helps♡
Please visit Yokohama when you are ever in Japan♡

Yokohama Walk One



I was born in this place called Yokohama.
Which is located a little away from Tokyo.

I was born there and spent the first one month of my life there.
Watching factories' night lights and smoke coming out of chimneys.

Just like the photo above.
I was born and watched this coastal industrial area every night.




Yokohama is absolutely a beautiful place.
It's chilling and quieter than Tokyo.
The roads are wider and the green is greener.

People are friendly and you can see the sea.


I love it, still.
When I was in Sydney I lived in Bondi.
I guess I really like to be near the ocean.




Yokohama is a romantic date spot.
Especially Minatomirai. ( Check it out if you have a date, really. )

This is a rose garden and a quiet fountain.
I always drop by here whenever I come to Yokohama.

This park is called Minatonomieru Oka Kouen.




Really really relaxing place, Yokohama.




My crush and I are both from Yokohama and
went to Yokohama for our 3rd date

I was walking around alone last weekend and
I just wanted to come back here again with him
and he said yea let's~ :)

So... that's really driving me #HopelessRomantic again.
( Blog title don't lie! )




There are really... a lot of photos of Yokohama so
I am writing two articles for this Yokohama walk♡

Hope someone enjoys my hometown♡
