Recent Buys January by watercurses on Polyvore

Chiffon Knit Pullover/Earth Music&Ecology
I bought this sweater to use for work but it turns out I love it so much that I've been wearing it over the weekend too with my new Totoro pin from the Ghibli Museum.  I love the little tulle part on the bottom the most.

FuwaFuwa Heart Dress/E Hyphen World Gallery Bon Bon
I'm so happy with this dress that I bought during the New Years sales! It's warm and cozy and all-around adorable.  The image of the back wasn't available in the blue color which is the one I bought.

Oh Happy Day Hand Bouquet/ETUDE　HOUSE
My hands have been dry because of the weather lately so I picked up this cute little hand cream from Etude House.  I bought the one that smells like candy, 

Play 101 Pencil/ETUDE　HOUSE
I bought this one in the silver glitter color to use around my eyes!

Japan Purchases!

It's really hard not to buy everything here, as you can probably imagine.  So having my paycheck come 2 months after beginning work makes things infinitely more difficult.  But I did have to buy a lot of things because I moved to this (mostly) empty apartment with only 2 suitcases of my belongings.  I'm not going to post about every single kitchen utensil I bought though, so no worries.  These are just the highlights.

♡ Pink Desk ♡

Most people in my training group got apartments with chairs and a desk.  I however, was not one of the lucky ones.  So, like any normal person would do, I used this as an opportunity to buy more cute things.  Behold, the pink and cute Ikea-style build it yourself desk (approx 3,600 yen) from Amazon jp that I am going to cry about having to leave behind once I find out how much it will cost to ship it home (featuring one of my 700 yen chairs and my 300 yen Rilakkuma rug).

♡ Heart Chairs ♡

These chairs I bought from Amazon Japan are so cute but rather tiny.   I shouldn't have been so surprised because they were only 700 yen.

♡ My Melody Mug ♡

It's some kind of custom to bring a mug with you when you work at a school so that you can partake in the communal coffee and green tea so I bought this cute My Melody one from Harajuku Kiddyland 

(~600 yen).

♡ Liz Lisa Dress ♡

Liz Lisa brand is very cute but also expensive.  But I have found some amazing items at a seriously low price in the resale shop in the mall in my city!  This dress makes me feel like a doll~

♡ Liz Lisa Pants ♡

Look how cute these pants are!  They were only 1,500 yen!! 

I love the lace details and the scalloped edging and...

...especially the bow accents on the back pockets!

♡ Bunny Umbrella ♡

It rains a lot here so I bought this amazing umbrella at Don Quixote (best store) for ~800 yen.  It doesn't really look like an umbrella though, does it?

The umbrella is cleverly disguised as a bunny~

I love how cute it looks when I keep it on my backpack. 

I have bought some cosmetic items here but I'm thinking that might be a post of its own eventually.

That's all for this post.  As always, please comment or write to me with any questions you may have!  Thanks for reading! ♡
