One Day Adventures

I decided to take a trip with my boyfriend up to Mitsuwa and then go to New York because it's only 30 minutes apart. I haven't gone to Mitsuwa since last year and now that I'm twenty-one, I wanted to buy some sake. I remembered wanting to buy some the last time I went because they were so pretty! I'm a total sucker for pretty packaging. I'll start off the post with my outfit of the day. I went for comfy because New York is all about walking. Honestly, I should have worn another layer because it was unexpectedly cold that day.

Fall Haul; Uniqlo, F21, etc

New season means new clothes. Here are the goodies I bought so far throughout this season. There are a few that I didn't take a snap of because I've worn them and it's in the laundry at the moment.

HAUL: Forever21

I bought some things from Forever 21 online. They had a extra 30% off sale items and I got tempted into buying some things. Here are the things I purchased:

HAUL: Forever21, Pacsun, Etc.

I did a bit of online shopping so I can get a new swimsuit for the beach since my previous one created a mishap. It was a standard triangle bikini top so you maybe can imagine what happened. :P I also purchased a few more things since Forever21 has a B1G1 free sale.

HAUL: Urban Outfitters, H&M, and Garage !

I got a few things this past week and I would like to share. I'm actually pretty excited to share what I got. I got a pair of new shoes. Heels, actually. Jeffrey Campbell heels, to be specific.

HUGE HAUL: Collective Winter haul from F21, ASOS, and H&M !

I've been in such a shopping mood as the weather got warmer. I'm one of those people who buy a few things on each trip because I put a lot of thought in my purchases. I need to be certain that I will actually wear or use whatever I'm buying (because I tend to buy useless junk that I won't use. I'm trying to kick that habit!) Also because I thrift, I think whether or not I could thrift something similar. Bottom line is that I'm pretty picky when I buy things.

Collective HAUL: H&M

H&M had a huge sale online and I saw some pieces that I've been wanting for a while. I also got a few basic things for my boyfriend but I didn't include them because its just a white dress shirt and a navy v-neck. Here are the things I got:

Black Friday HAUL: H&M, Pacsun, Hot Topic, etc !

I finished my last final on Friday so my second fall semester of college has come to an end. To celebrate, here is a Black Friday haul. I was a bit disappointed in this year's Black Friday deals. There just wasnt anything that really screamed "deal!"

HAUL: Sephora / Benefit !

It's been pretty hectic for me. I swear they should change "mid-term week" to "mid-term month!" It's also my birthday month so I thought I should treat myself and since Sephora does that birthday gift thing I took the opportunity to buy some things from there. Without noticing, I sorta bought everything from Benefit from Sephora which explains my title.

left to right:

☆ Sephora Birthday Gift - Benefit's They're Real Mascara & Watt's Up Highlighter ☆

☆ Benefit - How to Loo the Best at Everything in Light ☆

☆ Benefit - Gettin' Cheeky Tint Trio ☆

HAUL: Cotton On & Sephora

I've always wanted to buy some things from Cotton On. I saw a pair of printed jeans and I really wanted them and they were ON SALE. So I took this chance to buy a few things.

Cotton On Tops (Left to Right);

 ☆  Muscle Tee ☆

☆ Faux Leather Cap Tee; i was excited for this shirt but i was disappointed in the fabric:( ☆  

☆  Striped Basic Men's Tee ☆ 

HAUL: The Body Shop, H&M, & F21

I'm back with a haul! Its nothing big but there was a back to school ordeal so I thought I'd try some products from The Body Shop. And I also bought a couple of article of clothing from H&M and F21. For some reason, I haven't been in a mood to buy new clothes. I mean I want to buy new clothes but there hasnt been anything that I really wanted so I bought pretty basic things.

From Left to Right: 

☆ Camomile Gentle Make-Up Remover; the lovely sales attendant told me a little goes a long way ~ ☆
☆ Vitamin E Moisture Cream ☆

☆ BB Sample in #01; this color is actually a bit too dark for me but the sales attendant told me that there a lighter option, #00, will be available soon ☆

☆ Seaweed Matifying Day Cream; i have large pores and i though i'd try a little tub to see if this will clog my pores ☆

HAUL: Collective !

I know I've been MIA. BUT I do have an legit excuse, college. Its finals week! Eeks. I just finished off 2 finals and handed in all 5 of my essays. I have one more final Monday but I'm not worried about that. I apologize for being away so long but I'm back with a haul. Its more of a collective haul but its nothing big at all since I've been busy with school. I barely had the time (and money) to do anything else besides school work. Anyway lets get to the haul!

 This is the first half of my haul. Its the fashion/H&M haul. Starting from left to right:

• Maroon A-Line Skirt (Its darkers in real life, lighting is slightly off!)
• Black Purse/Bag
• Leather Belt

Click the read more for the second half which are mainly beauty products and random things.

Mini HAUL: Sephora

Hello Lovelies.

I got a $5 e-gift card and thought I should grab my birthday gift from Sephora. Unfortunately, I had to purchase something in order to redeem my birthday gift so I bought this traveler body wash thing. Shipping is $6 and my body wash thingy was $0.80 So in total everything was $1.81. And I would like to mention how fast Sephora ships their things. I ordered this on Sunday and it came on Tuesday. 

Here is everything I got: 

• 3 Perfume samples; Dahlia Noir by Givenchy, Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana, and Infusion D'iris by Prada
• Mango Traveler Bodywash thing
• Sephora's Birthday Gift; Sugar Kisses Mini Lip Duo
• Sephora Full Action Extreme Effect Mascara (deluxe sample?)

Here is everything unwrapped. Boy, when I mean mini-haul, I meant it. All the items are tiny! But then again all of them are samples or a gift from Sephora. The only thing I really bought was the bodywash. Still its all worth the $1.81. I might do a review on the lip duo because I recently used up my EOS balm. AND I lost my Burt's Bee. :(

HAUL/REVIEW: Love & Beauty Nail Polish

So my package finally came from Forever21. It took about a week to process the order and then another week (a little bit over) for it to arrive. I am not not happy with this long process but what can I do? Anyways,  I got 5 Love & Beauty Nail polish. They were on sale for a dollar each! I wish they came up with cuter names!

 Sky Blue, Seashell Pink, and Lavender are pretty sheer. It can act as a pretty coating for your nails. You can add a coat or two and it'll become a metallic-y color. The purple/multi is slightly sheer but you can fix that problem with an extra coat. I was hoping it was going to be a dark purple but its just your standard purple. The only solid and non-sparkly polish I got was Amber. I was hoping for more of a deeper tone but this color look like poo. Like diarrhea poo. BUT I'm going to try and make it work.

Here is another shot of the nail polish and a shot of the Sky Blue on my nails. It looks a bit messy because I didn't clean it up yet. :P As you can see, it looks like metallic. The color is a lot more sky blue-ish than in the picture. I previously bought a metallic/silver nail polish from love&beauty and I fell in love with it. I'm running out of that color. I think it was called Silver. I'm not sure but that what this color reminds me of.

HAUL: F21

You can barely call it a haul cause I only got 3 things but here they are.

• Taupe Striped Sweater
• Knee High Socks
• Fiber Baggy

It's actually pretty hard finding a nice sweater from F21. I find most of the materials they use for their sweaters are either really itchy or simply uncomfortable. I hope the sweater won't shrink because it'ss not a loose fit. Also I got these knee-high cause they look like a nice American Apparel dupe. YAY ~
