First day - Kyoto Downtown

Hello everybody ^o^

Today we were walking through Kyoto. We were checking the districts we haven't seen last year.
Michi called the tour Kyoto downtown ^^ 
Shopping arcades, fresh food "marked" (more or less a street) and Gion (traditional and Gheisha district).

breakfast ^^
my outfit
In front of Kyoto main station


We walked through small side streets...

...and arrived at the shopping arcades
in front of me: shops
behind me: a temple
The shopping streets are directly combined with traditional buildings. Very nice in Kyoto ^o^

I bought a nice dark red pleated skirt with fuffled underpants at "honeys" for 500Yen (ca.5€ *o*)

we found a "Pink-Latte" which I only know from Harajuku(Tokyo)
I bought two pairs of diamond lashes (50% reduced ^o^) there
I exchanged two pairs with Kiki ^^°
And I found my dream shoes which I expected to buy in Tokyo...^^° But now I found them in a shop in Kyoto downtown XD

...in this shop o.O
I loooove them <3
fresh food market, the paradise for Michi XD
Later on we were walking through the very traditional district Gion^o^


Later in the evening I had Takoyaki ^o^
I love japanese food so much <3 <3 <3
and now I'll enjoy my milk tea and go to bed ^o^
bye bye ^o^

Flight, arrival and "first day" in Japan

Hello Everybody ^o^

I'm in JAPAN *o*
Finally Kiki, Michi and I are backt to Kyoto. <3 <3 <3
It's 23.30Uhr and I decided to show you some (boring ^^°) photos.

Kiki and I started Friday ca. 10.50 am in Berlin...


We awaited Michi in Frankfurt....ooooh my god... Michi arrived so damn late that we already thought we have to enter the plane without her -.-° stressssssss.....
Nice flight with usual airplane food and onigiriiii <3 <3 <3


We arrived at Kansai Airport (Osaka) at 8 am (japanese time) at Saturday!
We took the Haruka Express to Kyoto.

first horrible pic of Kiki and me after the flight... scruffy gammel-gammel-look XD
We already know Kyoto from our last stay last year. So it was no problem to find the hotel and to plan a refrehing stop in our favourit café "Café du Monde" (btw. Kikis blog got it's name from this café ^^°).

our refreshing drinks
The café is directly located in the Kyoto main station which looks monumental.


The weather is grey and rainy but it's so damn hot here!!!

this is our hotel room...
When we could check in at 2pm we where so tired we had to relax for some hours and sleep a little bit. So we were ready and refrehed in the evening to go to our small shopping mall "Neon Mall" to look for some items and to have a meal.

Michi and me ^o^ (touri-pic XD)
 We entered our beloved "food court"  and ate tempura and rice. Michi had udon. I was waiting for one year to eat this again Q_____Q I loooove tempura.



And I achieved all my goals what to buy for the "first day".

a magazine (Popteen), lower (offbrand... but inexpenive) lashes, and a styling iron for straightening and curling!
Let's see what tomorrow's things to come !
bye bye ~chu <3

Last post before Japan (very big post... lots of photos)

Hello gals ^^
This will be probably my last post before my journey starts *o*
 it starts on Friday... and I'm totally nervous right now!
I hope I have time to blog sometimes from Japan! Let's see what I can do ^^°

But here are a lot of photos from last week! I simply start with Friday.
I was shopping with my mom.
This was my outfit:  (at home and in the changing room of New Yorker)


As you can see in the background, New Yorker sells cross T-shirts right now <3 I looooove them.
But it was hard to decide for the colour. Available in white, dark grey, beige, dark red...


I bought: white for me and dark grey for Kiki <3
cross details: rhinestones
I could not resist buying this leopard dress! On sale at Orsay!


And I finally managed to buy brown shoes ^^ I was looking for brown shoes for such a long time. One pair of boots and one pair of buckled shoes. Both from C&A.


In between I want to show you some photos of the cosplays for Connichi! Everything is ready and I don't have to work on them in the one week after Japan and before Connichi.

my red lenses for Karin Cosplay
this is how my room was looking like last week ^^° what a mess
I'm so in love with these plushy hair ties for Kikis Cosplay
this is me trying to wear part of Kikis cosplay ^^°
lots of plushy details ^o^
and more details for Ling Xiaoyu Cosplay
panda backpack
The next 3 photos show my Lili de Rochfort Cosplay.

So, the next photos are from last Saturday.
I met with Kiki.
Here my outfit:


We ate at an Indian/Asian restaurant.

this is part of Kikis super cute gets ^o^
I like the "My little Pony" hairclips that Kiki bought even more than the ones I bought some time ago... both are from H&M (childrens department)
I bought a summery flower dress from H&M for 7€ ^o^


And Kiki bought these breathtaking platform wedges at H&M *o*

And here is finally my today's outfit when I went to buy the last important things for the journey!


So, now I have to hurry up to go to bed!!!
Tomorrow I have to pack (and fix) my suitcase!

Let's see how often I can blog directly from Japan!
I will be there for 3 weeks.
First we will be in Kyoto for some days, then in Nagoya for some days and the last 11 days we will be in Tokyo.

bye bye ~ chu <3
