☆ Kawaii Box ~April 2015~ ☆

imageimageimageimage
(Finally) Received my monthly Kawaii Box!
Came a lot later than usual, though they've said it was because of Easter~
Also, sorry my pictures are very terribly muted this month ( u o u)
The lighting in my apartment has been atrocious!

An overview of the box~
So much cute and pastel this month!

 Cute stationary items~
As one can see from my previous posts
I've been getting very into planning so these are nice additions!
The sticker sets are super cute, as are the sticky notes and pen~
(even though the pen is sad, poor dear)

A really cute plush charm and some citrus flavour hi-chews?
The charm is suuuper cute!

I love this hair pin!
It is shaped like little leaves.. very cute~
Cannot wait to use this for a cute hairstyle (^_^)


This flowery box is really cute!
Contains a decorative sticker tape
With a cross stitch design and ~bonjour~


A pin with a cute, albeit worried/stressed face
and a suuuper cute nail clipper!

Some things I'm a little more 'meh' on
The patterned enveloped are neat, just not a colour scheme I like
and I really have no use for these tags and I don't like the colours...
but two out of the whole box isn't so bad!


image
There were 12 items in the box this month!
This is actually one of my more favourite months
I really liked most of the items, most are them are super cute
and a lot will be very nice to add to my growing stationary collection!
Looking forward to next month as always~

Easter Toy Haul~!

A liiiiittle late but here is what I got from earlier this month!
I counted these as my Easter presents (^_^)/

First of all, there was a BOGO half off sale for toys at Target!
Aaand the Haunted dolls were also 15 dollars so I jumped on the deal
I ended up getting the entire Haunted Line minus Twyla

Though, the next weekend I did end up picking up Twyla
The only reason I didn't originally was because she wasn't stocked
I also got Thronecoming Raven too, the only Thronecoming doll I was missing

Walmart was doing a sale on EAH signatures for 10 dollars each so I price matched
I bought all of these dollars for a combined total of 30 dollar.. not bad!

I am glad I can start to finish my inbox/out of box collection for EAH signatures
I had already bought Raven, Briar, Cupid, and Blondie from previous sales
and I really wanted to buy them before the new boxes started to take over
My Target is absolutely still filled with lots of Signatures (though all China edition!)
Since I don't plan to have an in/out of box collection with the new boxes
The only ones I am missing are Dexter and Lizzie now

These are some other goodies I got around Easter too!
I actually found Freaky Fusion Jackson at Walmart on Easter which was nice!
I had originally looked a looot for him last year when FF first was coming out in stores
I could never manage to find him now though.. so I was very happy to spot him
Also received the Easter candies on the left as gifts~

And the right with all the Easter baskets is all after clearance stuff
I got the baskets for less than a dollar each and the candy for around 50c a bag
so.. I couldn't pass up all the good deals! I picked up some cute stuffed animals as well

I also bought these from Target around Easter
Lots of cute springtime Hello Kitty stickers for dollar each
and the exclusive holiday mini Lalaloopsy (that I love a lot, bunnies!)
I have since bought another mini loopsy since they went on clearance
Since I like having two for one in box, one out of box

Since getting the Haunted dolls, I also rented the movie to watch~
I thought it was really cute and I preferred it over the last few movies
We also got Big Hero 6 which we haven't had seen yet and really enjoyed it!

Also, lastly!
I got these really cute nail stickers from Dollar Tree
They have some really cute designs, not sure about the quality though
For a dollar, I figured they were worth trying~

I also bought these ones from Dollar Tree quite a few months back!
The ones of the left kind of remind me of Lizzie Hearts~
I recently wore the black/white ones but they didn't stay on well
I don't think I did a great job at putting them on > 3 <

Anyways, here is what I bought during Easter!
I kind of went a little overboard on dolls but I didn't buy much in March!
I am just getting around to a backlog of posts = o =
My most up to date posts are on Instagram~
So, I am trying to get all caught up!!

Panda Biscuits

I got these in my Kawaii Box some months back
buuut just got around to trying them now!

Some pictures of what the inside looks like~
The wrapper having various drawings of pandas
And the inside of the box with a cute comic

And the cookies themselves!
It is kind of hard to describe these.. the white filling on the box?
It is actually very dry and almost chalky.. left a weird taste in my mouth
And the cookie itself is not an entire cookie but just a shell, so when I bit it in half
It kind of crumbled all of the place (^__^ ;) so, they're a little messy if not one piece
Overall, they were okay and they were interesting but.. not the best, surely~
I liked that each panda face had their own personality.

Springtime Kittys

Here's some pictures of my kittys on their pillows~
We bought them these paw shaped pillows a few Christmas's ago
They really like to sleep on them 

Also it's super shedding season now that the weather is warmer
So I've been grooming my kitties a lot more lately~
Here is Fruit staring at her ball of fur she produced (> 3 <)
After brushing her some more, there were at least two more this size

Also! 
I used  the purple brush in the picture
I really like it because it works really well and they like it
Especially works with grabbing the hair on surfaces after brushing
Since all the hair covered the entire couch after brushing >  o <
If you want to check it out, you can find it here~

☆ Bodyline Haul ☆

image
I actually got this package about last month~?
But I am just getting around to posting it now (> 3 <)
Actually, the shipping was really quick, it came in two weeks
Honestly, I haven't even taken most of them out of the bag
I have no room in my apartment and I am going to move soon
so I think I want to keep them safely tucked in storage for now!

These are actually my first lolita clothes ever!
I got really into EGL and japanese fashions when I was about 16 back in 2007
I ended up going a more gyaru look since lolita was more expensive
But! I always coveted the super pretty dresses~

Part of me wishes I started back then when Bodyline first sort of emerged!
The dresses were really cheap (but a lot of them were super bad quality)
They have really come out with cute designs over the years though
and they still remain one of the most affordable 'brands' for lolita~

So, here is the dresses I decided to pick up~
Sorry you can only view from inside the bag for now (= o =)

Again, sorry they're all still in the bags~!
I did a lot of research to see which ones looked nice in person~
and honestly, they are much prettier in real life than in pictures
Since you can't really see them, I'll post the on-site pictures

First of all, I bought the left dress in black
At first, I ignored it because the apron was really not flattering
but then I realised it was removable (and the dress inexpensive!)
The print is very cute and Alice in Wonderland themed

I also bought the black, white, pink striped bear print dress
When I first ordered I was a little nervous.. the print looked a little busy
but in person, it's so cute and has many little details!
I really want the mint version as well..

I also got these two super cute dresses, in black~
I really love the carousel print and pretty stars on the the left dress
and the super cute design on the Squirrel party dress on the right
Though I know these are both super common Bodyline dresses
They're still super cute 

Also, not a dress but I also purchased this blouse in black
Though at first I also overlooked it because of the neck tie
but again, another removable thing, and looks cute without it!
When I look at things on bodyline now, I always look at the extras
because usually whatever it is, looks cute without it

Though I really like how cute and simple the dress on the right is
I am kind of perplexed at the colour in person, it doesn't seem to match the site
Mine is almost a brown instead of grey-ish, which is okay!
Just.. simply weird.

Anyways, that is all for the big items!
Sorry for these slightly blurry pictures to come

Purchased these cute tights~
Kitty, Bats and Bone themed tights

and just some little accessories~
Some socks to match the bear dress
A spicy headband and little bows

And I purchased these shoes as well~
I liked these since they still were cute with bows and such
and no heels! I really don't like wearing heels (; o ;)

Not Bodyline!
But just some basic stuff I purchased after I got my package
Since I didn't have many knee high socks, I figured I should buy some
So, I purchased this set of black and white socks for 5 dollars from Target

Also, found some really cute bracelets at Kohls~
Candies and Juicy Couture have very cute loli-able jewelry
I definitely want to also take a look at Claire's when I can go to the mall
because, most jewelry in store that I find tends to be a little too adult
and not quite cute enough!

Anyways, that is all for now (^_^)/
I hope to purchase more cute dresses in the future
I jumped on these for now to take advantage of the 20% coupon
So, in altogether, my purchase was around.. 180 dollars
So no bad at all~ (^_-)v

but I should definitely wear all of these first for now
I think they are a good start and I am trying to stick with one colour scheme
I really like black/pink and doesn't look over the top cutesy
but I hope to extend my colour selections eventually~
