Gifts Shopping

Since I've started doing swaps, my way of giving gifts has changed. 
Instead of finding one thing that my recipient's going to like, I gather all the information I can of what my gift receiver likes and get a smorgeshborgh of gifts (ノ♥ヮ♥)ノ*:・゚✧. With that said, the boyfriend's birthday is coming up [Aug 3rd] so I'm gathering my information and goodies lol.

I had already decided to get him more of those Jelly sticks from the Asian Market, but since he really likes fruit snacks I was going to get a good selection of fruity snacks :). I was going to get him a brown fox tail keychain like my grey one, but I didn't want him to think I wanted him to match me lol. Maybe I'll save that one for Christmas. I also got him an oriental bowl and spoon set, since he was taking things from oriental restaurants we'd go to lol.


Since my fella has a certain hipster-eque dress style, I perused Plndr to see if I could find something that I think he'd like. I was quite successful in finding two items that I thought were just perfect for him, but sadly when I went back to pay....one was sold out TT_TT. The one that was sold out was the perfect perfect one lol. It was a white tank top that had "Sneakerhead" written in white letters bordered with a red background. My baby loves his shoes lol.

What I was able to get was a cute flannel hooded buttondown
Torrance Flannel Hooded Buttondown Shirt in Teal

There was a red one also that I went back and forth with this one, but in the end I've chosen the Teal one ^_^. Since Plndr has new deals everyday and fricken amazing prices, I'll probably go back a couple times to see if anything else catches my eye for him. Though I'll be pushing it with trying to get it in before his birthday and all lol. Sidenote: oh, and don't worry ladies Plndr has lovely items for you too! I've ordered some cute pieces for myself in the past ^_^.
Before my time's up, I'm going to try and find him some nice tanks. I just hope that he enjoys all the pieces I've pick out for him (◕‿-)

Leggings Addiction

I've recently started collecting leggings and stocking. They're so comfy. They're something to chill in, or wear in public. I ordered some new additions a little bit ago, and they've finally come in!

Union Jack
[the memo sheet in the larger photo...I was using for something else and didnt feel like taking another photo lol]
American Flag Stars and Stripes
White opaque with hearts, and Black opaque with bows
The black ones were too dark to take a photo of so here's and online photo of what they look like :3

Along with these lovelies, I received a new pair of plugs for my "ear loves" collection. They're glow-in-the-dark stars :3.

I got these babies mainly to take the place of some other GIND [glow-in-the-dark :D] plugs I had in the past. They were all white and were screw on plugs. I didn't like how they felt on my ears, and the screw in part kind of hurt... I dig single flair plugs immensely, and I'm sure these will feel much more delightful in my lobes.

I have a bit more leggngs in my collection, but that's for another day [cuz I'm tired and lazy TT_TT]. I've also started a want to start collecting soaps of all sorts. Cute ones, shaped ones, ones that are good for my skin, and bath bombs lol. I'm excited to start and will probably review them all.

July Shoppings

Let's start off with a trade I'm doing on facebook with V's A'more Bello
She was interested in a few of my rare plushies that I was letting go of, including:
- Nyan nyan nyanko cake plush
- Tempura Shrimp plush [NWT]
- Kiwi Twins plush
In return, I'll be receiving:
- A sleeveless buttondown [missing 2 buttons but I can easily fix that]
- San-x Rilakkuma Sandwich squishy
- 6 Sanrio Hello Kitty Desserts squishies
- San-xRilakkuma Dango squishy
- San-x Kamonohashi Kamo Platypus Squishy
She said she sent today, I'm quite excited to receive and send.

Moving on!
I had ordered some Hello Kitty Cabochons for my swap with paperfun, and they came in yesterday. I have to say that they are quite adorable. I bought them off of ebay. Just put cabochon in the search. They have a wide variety.

Early yesterday, the family went out to eat at my favorite Indian Restaurant up the street.
My delicious plate consisted of: Rice, Chicken Tikka Masala [on rice], Spicy Chicken 65, and Malai chicken. omnomnom

Now onto the serious shopping portion. My favorite stores include anywhere I can get a whole wardrobe for $50-$60 lol [i.e. goodwill/thrift stores, ross, rainbow, wally world etc etc.]  I went to Ross and Rainbow the other day. Here's my loot:
This Crocheted shawl is actually from eBay. I bought it
for $5.50 with free shipping
Rainbow: Dark Navy Blue Star and Lace tight Dress
Acquiring more clothing with Stars lol Lil Miss Starfish
$7
Rainbow: White and Denim Blue stripped strapless dress with belt
I also bought an earthy floral one in the same style with a diff. belt,
but that was a different trip lol
$7
Rainbow: White, Black, Baby Turquoise tanks
$3 each
Rainbow: Super comfy, Black&White floral print  lounge pants
They had an animal print pair also that I may go back and get.
These are extremely comfy!
$10
Ross: Navy Blue Floral print dress
$7.99
Ross: See-thru checkered floral tank with mesh back
$8.99
the mesh back
Along with shopping, I've also been trying to get some refashioning done, so I can have some "unique" clothing items for the coming school year.
I bought this button-down on one of my Goodwill trips back at school. 
It's a size XL [I think in Women's]. I started off with taking one of my tank tops and "measuring" off where I wanted to start cutting. I started with the sleeves, and sewed a hem on one of the holes. I'm going to do the same to the other side and take in the sides so that it isn't so wide.
In the end, I should have a lovely sleeveless button-down for the hot summer.
When I got back home, I ventured to one of the Goodwill's in my area that I haven't been to yet and found this lovely blouse:
Sadly it had a hole in it, but I didn't care. It was too cute and such a lovely color that I decided I could just fix it. So this is the second "refashion" I'm working on.
I've decided to put a pocket over it :D
This is only the beginning of my shopping ventures. I haven't done back-to-school shopping yet >:3

Swap Update!

I've been slowly working on a couple swaps. One is to Krystal R. who hit me up on tumblr [cannot remember her tumblr D:] for a $50 Hello Kitty Swap, but...I explained this in this post [at the bottom]. Here is an update on her package:
Including [L-R]:
- Hello Kitty Sticker Box
- Hello Kitty Strawberry filled marshmallows
- various other hello kitty snacks
- Hello Kitty Glue
- Hello Kitty bell charm
- Hello Kitty Snowball themed plush
- Hello Kitty themed plastic phone case for her phone
- Hello Kitty pencil pouch
- Hello Kitty mechanical pencil
- Hello kitty sticker sheet
- Hello kitty blank cards
-Hello Kitty ipod sock
- Hello Kitty lanyard
Is it annoying to see hello kitty that many times?
I would be about done if only the rest of the items I ordered online would come in. The only thing that I've received so far was the phone case.


  


















I had asked her if she had an iPhone since they have so many hello kitty themed cases but she didn't and I was able to find one for her phone!

The other swap I've been working on is the Fill-A-Bag swap with paperfun on flickr. The bag hasn't come in yet still, but the swap isn't due til august so it's ok. 
Here's what it is so far:
Included [L-R]:
- Hello Kitty mini notebook
- 4x6 Ruu&Suu memo pad
- 4x6 Piggy Girl memo pad
- Die-cut Teddy Burger memo pad
- Zodiac Girls 3D sticker sheet
- Miki and friends stamps sticker sheet
- Two Monotone panda long memo pads
[Gently Used, she asked for gently used memo pads also]
- Star and cupcake cabochons
I want to do a good bit more swaps before school starts in August, but we'll see.
