I Heart Japan

This week I have been really showing my support for Japan. I donated money to the Red Cross and bought  a Hello Kitty tote bag that donates the proceeds to Japan Relief Fund. I love their Harajuku style and everything they do from fashion to food ...... and even Anime :) Here are a few items that I have purchased this week in behalf of my love for Japan.
My Hello Kitty Tote $10.00
Eden Of The East $30.00 DVD
Gwen's Baby perfume reminds me of Loves Baby Soft from the 1980's
$20.00 on Amazon.com
I just bought this perfume at Ulta for $20.00
celebrating 50 yrs of Sanrio and it smells like yummy fruit gum :)

I also bought this HOT PINK nail polish from POP for $14.00 it reminds me of the Harajuku girls bright outfits!
My rocking horse shoes from Japan
that I bought from Ebay for $70.00
and I LOVE them SO MUCH

SO BE IT

To be grey headed or not to be grey headed?

I ran across a picture of this girl from Tokyo and her hair is dark grey and I am obsessed with it now! What to do..... well what do you think? I think I should, this is one color I have not tried yet.


But .... I will have to fight my hair stylist on this color and the bad thing is that my hair stylist happens to be my mother :(

So Be It!

Pig out time and a Freaks movie

So I have decided enough is enough with my fat butt not working out. So tomorrow starts my diet and my rehab to kick my habit of my addiction to Dr.Pepper and junk food. Tonight I am celebrating with a 1932 movie called Freaks and a load of junk food. I am also upset that everyone is at SXSW and I missed Sean Lennon and now The Strokes ...... so sad boo hoo boo hoo :(
I love this movie
I love Paydays
I have my jalapeno poppers
my tub of popcorn and
my Dr.Pepper

So this is my Friday night alone just me myself and I

So Be It

Breath of God I Love You

My new favorite perfume is Breath Of God by LUSH. I adore anything from Lush but this is a keeper in my book. It smells like candy and incense combined as one! I bought the solid perfume so it's easier to travel with and to just throw in your purse and go!
                             Lush also has a lot of different scents and Karma is my second choice. :)
                                                                   So Be It! JAR
