Glasgow MCM Comicon 2015 Haul! ♥

Konnichiwa Minna-san!~ Today I have my Comicon Haul for you. Last week was the annual Glasgow MCM Comicon and aside from cosplaying and taking hundreds of pictures for Otakuography, I was looking at all the stalls to see what cute products I could buy 


This is the overall picture of my haul! It's definitely not as big as the previous two years, but I was so busy with taking photographs that buying things only happened when something really caught my eye.


My favourite item from Comicon is definitely my little Oshawott ♥ He's so adorable! My fiance bought him for me when I was getting some air and I was so happy and shocked! Look at his wee face ♥ This was an officially licensed Pokemon product and I believe he was £15, but i'm unsure of which stall was selling him.


While we were walking around CEX who had a massive DVD/Game stand in the center of the hall, were handing out cute little CEX chocolates that taste identical to a Terry's Chocolate Orange. Not brilliant for me, but my fiance loved them!


My favourite purchase of the day is two new Uta no Prince-sama Biscuit Charms!♥ Omg they're the cutest little things in the world... I'm literally obsessed. I have Ranmaru, Masato and Ren all attached to my phone and they look so adorable, they're good quality and a completely licensed product from SAOTOME GAUKEN ♥ They were £4 each from the Japan Centre stall.


This is a super cool Panda Cone from Glico and it's the Giant Caplico Panda - Cookies & Cream flavour. The texture of this is weird and interesting, it's supposed to imitate a ice cream but with chocolate instead of the ice cream ♥. The chocolate is smooth and bubbly kind of like an Aero bar and for me it tastes like a crushed Oreo. This was from the Japan Centre and I think it was £1.50!


These are from the brand Kabaya and they are Pastel Chocolate Cone snacks from the Japan Centre. I'm not overly fond of these sweets, mostly due to the bad quality of chocolate. However most children will like these since the are fun with cure designs, the little pastel marble is a crunchy little biscuit which is quite a fun texture with the chocolate. These were £2.00 and to be honest i'll probably not buy them again, they are very plain and a little cheap tasting. 


These two are basically the same product from the Japan Centre and i had no idea until I got home ♥! These are also by Kabaya. The first is a small packet of chocolate panda biscuits, the white kind of tastes like milk but i'm not 100% sure. The box of pandas are pretty different to the first packet to be honest, as they have a caramel flavouring to them. However I think they taste like a Yankee Candle or something! They're not terrible just a little fragrant ♥ The small packet was 50p and the box was £1.00 from the Japan Centre!


NOM NOM NOM! ♥ I have bought these at every convention for three years, I absolutely love Match Pocky! They taste slightly herbal because of the matcha but mostly they just taste rich and creamy, amazingly addictive. These were bought from the Japan Centre for £2.00 


This is the cutest little wafer/biscuit panda i've every seen! ♥ It tastes like a Blue Riband to me (British biscuit) but the description on the Japan Centre website says it is a milk & white chocolate flavoured wafer. Either way I think it tastes fantastic and I think it was 50p from the Japan Centre stall on the last day of the convention!



This was the weirdest tasting thing of the day... WOW what a flavour! I've bought this Sangaria soft drink before but in the Melon Soda flavour, this is Grape and oh my god does it taste amazing. I would definitely not recommend you to drink it daily (so much sugar) but it needs to be tried at least once. The flavour is traditional artificial grape but the drink almost has a sherbet flavour/texture, it's so tangy and amazing. Highly recommended! This was again bought from the Japan Centre for £2.00.

Hyper Japan & London 2015 Haul! ♥

Konnichiwa Minna-san! I have a very special post to share with you all today, and that is my Hyper Japan & London Haul! 

Last weekend me. my fiancé and our two friends went on a trip all the way down to London for the Hyper Japan convention, which was totally amazing! ♥ So i'm going to start off with the items I bought at Hyper Japan, and then move onto things I bought when I was exploring London !x


Kpop is a complete obsession for me, and as many of you may know I am a STARLIGHT ♥. I adore VIXX with all my heart so I made a few sneaky purchases at the Kpop stall, starting with this dust plug for my phone. It's very simple and made from acrylic but I don't have any VIXX charms hanging from my phone yet, so for me it was a must! ♥ I believe I paid £4 for this, but i'm not too sure.


My second VIXX purchase was these adorable stickers!! ♥ I'm a complete sucker for Kpop stationary, and this was no exception. It has all of the members on little stamps with some quotes beneath some of the pictures, it's far too cute xxx! I paid £5 for these but i've seen them a lot more expensive online.


I LOVE THIS KEYRING ♥ It's everything I want and more... Every member has a full picture of themselves when they were promoting Error and also a group picture as well. UGH! it's just sheer perfection, I know that most of these items are not official and are fan made, but it's so hard to find VIXX products in the UK for a decent price. This keyring was £4


My favourite anime of all time is Uta no Prince-sama ♥! I know that's a little strange and random but it's just so heart warming, light and relaxing. So to go with my other Utapri items (music box, DVD collection, phone charms, keyrings), I thought I would buy a few more things. Starting with Masato on the left! I have nothing with Masa at all and I think he is such a great character in the anime, so I just had to have a little version of him on my keys! ♥ He was £5 I believe.

I got the most adorable little Syo! Look at his little cute face ♥ xxx He's supposed to be a keyring the same as Masa, but i'm a little scared to use him like that because of the ball/chain that's used, i'm scared it'll break. He has a tiny little body and a big bobble head attached with a link, which I think is so sweet! He was £7 from a random stall which I can't remember.


And finally I bought another Ren... ♥ I know I know, obsessed much? But how could you not buy him on a biscuit! It's adorable and such high quality, so I think i'll be keeping him on my phone case along with his other version. He was £6 from the Japan Centre stall. 


I actually didn't buy this G-Dragon bracelet! it was from the Kpop stand but my friend who is a huge fan of G-Dragon and Big Bang bought a pack of these and kindly gave me one !♥ I have no idea how much these are or where else you can buy them, but it's so cute and will even fit on my tiny wrist. 




Moving on to other London purchases! This was a present from my wonderful fiancé when we visited Camden Market on our second day in London. We found this adorable little stall that sold like 40 Alpacasso's, it was so cute, but this little bag caught my eye immediately. I've seen these on various Storenvy shops at ridiculous prices, but this little gem was only £10! xxx! Thank you sweetie for the amazing present 



This was probably my best purchase at the market. I bought this little bag to carry my digital camera around my neck more easily, and also because I spotted the Rilkkuma lanyard so I was sold... Well that's until I saw the price, £1 !!! I could not believe it, I should've bought a few but oh well...  



We went to the Japan Centre in Piccadilly Circus, which was a fantastic experience! There was so much food and so many different varieties of sweets and drinks. I spotted a Ramune a mile away when I was looking in the cooler cabinets and I had to buy the Pokemon edition, i've hand the drink so many times but this one was just all kinds of special! ♥ It was £1.40, and they have an online website which delivers so I will link that at the end of this post for you! xxx




My final purchase of my holiday was again found in Camden Market, there was the most adorable little Japanese/Korean clothing stall somewhere in the heart of the market and I was totally drawn to it. The man had such cute items for sale at low prices so I just had to buy something. I eventually settled on this heavy, silk and lace white dress, it has amazing floral detail all over the body and skirt which I love. The lace overlay also extends past the underskirt which gives a princess effect which I like a lot. This was such a bargain at £8! I almost couldn't believe it xxx 

I would highly recommend going to see Camden Market, and I would definitely say that you should try and go to Hyper Japan at some point! it's so much fun and I got to meet so many nice people!

Primark Haul! #1 ♥

Hello guys! This is my very first Primark haul, which is rather surprising considering this store is like my second home. I'm not entirely sure how world wide Primark is? But I think they're possibly expanding into America or they already have... I have genuinely no idea, but you can possibly find something like these items on Ebay as well
 (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧


The first item is this high neck cable bodycon dress, in a grey/black pebbled colour. I usually go for floating girly dresses, mostly with a skater style so this for me was definitely a big change... and I LOVE IT! Oh wow this looks amazing on and it fits perfectly. I would say that in Primark most of the clothing is true to size and this is one of them ♥ This is a very classy dress that is timeless (From my previous Sheinside haul you all know I love timeless dresses, something that will stay on trend is a definite money saver). This was a bargain at £6.00 and as usually I can't leave a link since Primark has no website o(╥﹏╥)o.



Probably the item I was most excited about, the dreaded kimono! I have wanted one of these for at least a year and a half, but I never found one that stood out enough from the rest. The fringe on the end with the pastel floral pattern is exactly what I wanted. the fabric is wonderfully light and airy. The kimono ends at my ankles so girls who are shorter than 4ft 10 might want to find a shorter version. This was £12.00 which completely baffled me since it looks far more expensive than it is, so this was easily the steal of the day ♥



I've been wanting a drop type necklace for some time now, but since i'm clumsy and forgetful I mostly only wear fashion jewelry except from my gran's ring and my engagement ring. So I found this little gem (literally) it's a heart shaped pendant with a small crystal on the drop of the necklace. It doesn't look obviously cheap which I like and I don't really mind if I lose it for £2.00.  




And lastly it's this set of three crystal chokers! ♥ They're in a peach, lilac and mint colour and absolutely adorable, perfect for any fairy kei or dolly look since they're really subtle. I like that I can mix and match with different outfits, but I kind of wish they had a few more sets with different colours... but hey! you can't have everything and £1.50 for three of them is a bargain anyway ♥

Thank you very much for reading my review and I hope you stick around for more in the future

Avon Gel Finish Nail Enamel Polish Review - Snow Star

Hello guys! :3 Today I had a tiny review for you on the Avon Gel Finish Polish, i'm not necessarily sure if Avon sells products in countries other than the UK. However i'm sure that where ever you are, there will be something similar to this nail polish 


I have at least 7 of the colours from the Gel Finish range, but this one has definitely struck a cord with me. First of all the colour is amazing and totally not suitable for summer despite this being the new range! which is a bit of a fail but none the less I adore a silver/chrome look on my nails. 


Most of these nail polishes are thick and take a while to dry because of their gel-like nature, this one however is really easy and smooth to apply. The picture above was one coat of the polish, which I think is genuinely fantastic in all honesty I think the formula has been changed as I compared this with one of my other gel polishes and there is a definite difference. 

Overall it's a lot better than the previous ones from the same range, it's not 100% compared to the more expensive brands such as China Glaze and OPI as it still cracks after a couple of days. I would give it a 7/10.

Thank you very much for reading my review and I hope you stick around for more in the future

Yesstyle.co.uk Haul! #2 (♥‿♥)

Konnichiwa Minna-san! I've been away for a while and now I have returned with a HAAUUL! Yay. This is my second Yesstyle.co.uk haul I believe and I have been so excited to get this package, so lets get on with it (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧


The first item I bought was this t-shirt, this is unusually plain and monochrome for me but I absolutely adore it! 


On my size 6 frame the top is a little oversized which i'm totally fine with and the quality is amazing for such a cheap product. It's simple, chic and fantastic for summer.



My second item is another top that I have been CRAVING for, this has at least been a 6 month hunt for a top like this. Now that I have it i'm completely and utterly in love, this is the most beautifully fitted and flattering top i've ever worn... 



The material is ribbed with a cut out just above the chest, the fabric is also super soft and easy on the skin. I highly recommend this top, it is of such high quality and it's so easy to wear. 


I have bought these adorable mittens before but in a beige and dark brown colour, they are amazingly warm and convenient since you can still use your phone while wearing them 
(priorities right? O(≧▽≦)O).


Overall I love wearing these purely because of how big and cute they are. They are definitely a must have for any cuties in the Winter months, however I bought them recently because I believe they will double in price later on in the year. They also come in around 4 or 5 colours.



I love fashion glasses of all shapes and sizes, however I have never been able to find gold round glasses anywhere! Luckily... here they are (=∩_∩=)フ xxx



They are wonderfully made using high quality materials, which is a lovely surprise. They feel sturdy enough to not break if they fall or are put in your bag etc, which is always a plus. I love these, they are genuinely the best glasses I have ever bought, both in quality and in style.

Thank you Minna-san, I hope you enjoyed my Yesstyle.co,uk haul, all of my items came in perfect condition with no defects and they were all exactly as shown on the website as well.
