♥International Gyaru Lovers Meetup♥

So, last weekend I went to the 4th International Gyaru Lovers Meetup which was held in Frankfurt! I have never been in a meetup outside of Finland so I was excited and nervous at the same time!

Me and Kati arrived to Frankfurt quite early on the Friday morning so it was a really nice surprise that our room was ready and we were able to check in when we got to the hotel! The staff was super nice as well and basically only thing we could complain about was the lack of a full body mirror. If you are looking for a nice hotel in Frankfurt we would recommend Hotel Manhattan!

We put on some makeup and went to explore the city! I opted for some LizLisa and Dreamv cuteness for this purpose. I wasn't super happy with my shoe choice but I wanted to be comfy and they were decent enough looks-wise. I think the shopping street would probably be really pretty during summer, now it was quite grey.

I always know I have a good thing going with someone when they agree to eat at PizzaHut! :'D ilu Kati ♥ When we had eaten Melissa had also arrived and joined us for the rest of the shopping spree. I found lovely new leather boots and shit ton of stuff from Primark. Why can't we have that store here as well? T_T

We got back to the hotel, I styled my wig (which had gotten quite horrible during the trip...) and we went to Hooters for the pre-event, but I had already taken off my wig and lashes so I was looking really basic. Didn't really talk to many people nor took any photos so not much to say about that.

 

So here is my meetup look! I was so stressed about the wig and how it would turn out since I only got to style it the evening before, but I received many compliments and was pretty happy myself as well so I guess you could say it was a success! My shirt and skorts are LizLisa, shoes from Dreamv and I made the hair accessory myself.

I think this happens to me after all the conventions and meetups, but... I wish I was braver and talked with more people. Especially since everyone I talked with seemed genuinely nice people! Hopefully next time I'll be more brave. I did get to know the people from our table though (which was the lower right corner in the picture!) and all 4 girls were so sweet, I was really happy to have landed in the same table with them! ♥

 Unfortunately all the pictures with Melissa and Kati were a bit blurry but I wanted to include this anyways ♥

We also went to the karaoke during the evening (and sung almost everyone out of the room with few people, lol!) and it was way more fun than I expected it to be. We didn't go clubbing since we wanted to get to the airport early enough on Sunday and still had to pack, but I think overall the meetup was a success and the organizers had gone through a huge effort to make it happen, so thank you Kitai and Kyo and everyone else! I hope I can make it next year as well! ^^

♥Tahdon♥Party♥

Hi everyone, I realized I still had this outfit unposted from last year's November when I went out with my sister and Kati to celebrate equal marriage!

I wanted to wear my lovely mint wig again, and built this simple party outfit around it! Some people wanted to take pictures with me and one lady asked if I could come and do her hair some day, haha~ It was a nice evening but I probably should've opted for comfier shoes for dancing, my feet were killing me afterwards!

Next up is the International Gyaru Meetup in Frankfurt, stay tuned!

Autumn♥Meetup

Hello everyone! Autumn seems to be here, although it still has been relatively warm.

We had a Gyaru Finland meet up yesterday, hosted by Sofia! Thanks for making it happen! ^^

It was already quite an adventure getting to the cafe where we were supposed to meet looking like this... some people were rude but there were also these young guys who were like "COTTON CANDYYYY!!! I love it! You look awesome!" which made me really happy :'3 Random people were generally nicer this time around than before, I hope it's a trend that will stick!

I had bought a new wig and I had decided to try another sujimori for it as well! I think it turned out better than the first one so I guess I have learned at least something! ^^ I already have some ideas what to do with the third one once I decide on a color! I also have another wig project under way so I will be posting some pictures of that once I have the time to work with it!

Anyways, since I had quite a lot of hair I kept the outfit very simple. Also I didn't really have clothes to match the hair unfortunately . _ .' I wanted to wear different colored lenses but my eyes weren't cooperating so I decided to wear the ones that were actually comfy!

We didn't have as many people as I hoped for, which was a shame. But there is of course pros to having a smaller group, I think this time I got to chat at least a bit with everyone : ) 

I should've asked for more pictures together with people but I always feel so shy and don't want to bother them, gah > n < Luckily I got some with Sofia and Saga! Too bad they had to leave quite early, but it was nice to meet Saga irl since I have only talked with her online before this!

After our host left we weren't sure what to do, but soon we just decided to go to Hesburger due to it being always a bit deserted :'D After Hesburger we walked around for a bit and went to a cafe, haha! Day filled with food! Not that I'm complaining.

Eventually it was time to go home. Me and Amanda had to do some grocery shopping and as we walked to the store, some Russian guys wanted to take pictures with us :'D We agreed since they were polite enough to ask, and afterwards when we were waiting for our busses some guy came to talk to us and asked what is this style. He also wanted to take a picture and said he has never seen anything like this before, it was pretty funny how amazed he was!

It was a very nice day and I think we need to start organizing this year's Halloween Meetup soon! 

Today I went to a Magic the Gathering Prerelease event with my friends and hoooo boy, we were there for over 6 hours!! I didn't anticipate for it to last so long so now I am quite spent! I only won one out of five game sets, but it was fun nevertheless!

Hopefully you had a nice weekend and a great week ahead of you! ♥

Pink♥Party

Hello everyone!

We had our company's Summer Party a week ago, which was pink themed. I usually wear pink on normal days as well so since it didn't really feel like such a big deal to me compared to most of the finns, I wanted to do something more.

I spent a few hours cutting, teasing and overall fixing one of my unusable wigs and made it look pretty fabulous if I do say so myself!

I also wanted to do a heavy makeup to match the hair. I got some pointers to my last look on International Gyaru community on Facebook so I tried to implement all those tips this time!

Blouse from Yumetenbo, skorts Liz Lisa, shoes NoFall, wig eBay, hair flower Claire's

Cutie Jess in the picture with me, she is such a wonderful person, I am really happy we both work in the same company ♥ She took my outfit picture!

My cute colleagues wanted us to pose like Japanese girls, haha :'D Those pink sunglasses and leis were provided by the company, I'm so happy, free pink stuff~ ^^

After posting my picture in the Facebook group I also got my first Valentine! I'm so happy and honored, not sure if the person who posted this reads my blog but if you do, thank you so much, it made my day! ^^

I have been sick for 3 days now so not feeling too great at the moment, hopefully you guys have a better weekend ahead of you! ♥
