Matchy-matchy Candy Ribbon ♥

Oh well, I'm super late as always, right?

I've wanted to post this article since the very moment when we took the pictures but I didn't.
No. Instead, the pictures have been sleeping in my hard drive, waiting to be edited...
So, something like six months after, here's the post~

Back in May, when in Amsterdam for SFE's Under The Sea event (btw, I can't wait for the next one), Roxane and I bought two dresses from RoseMarie Seoir with matching Candy Ribbon print!
Right after the main event was over, we decided to go take some pictures in Amsterdam because why not!

After having some rest (and talking a lot) we went out once again!
We were only a few blocks from a beautiful canal so we decided to take some pictures there.
On our way to the canal, we walked into Tro-tro, Sandra and Lou ♥
They were heading to a restaurant to have diner. We talked for a while right in the middle of the sidewalk... or was it the bicycle path? Who knows, Amsterdam you're so full of tricks and dangers! And they invited us to join them right after taking our pictures~

I was wearing:
OP : RoseMarie Seoir,
Otks : offbrand
Shoes : H&M
Earrings : RoseMarie Seoir (Syrup)
Accessories: gifts and vintage







Sad faces because the event was over. Also, we tried picturing our lives without 
our freshly bought matching dresses, way too hard...


(Yes, I went crazy with the editing. Fancy frames, RoseMarie Seoir style and all! )




Matchy-match, oh dear I miss you ♥


And so, after that we headed to the restaurant and joined Tro-Tro, Sandra and Lou.
Food was great, drinks were great and company was excellent ♥ 
I remember Lou braided my hair, thank you ! Yes, this was such a nice evening 


See you soon and 
take care until next time ♥

「Q-pot. Seasonal LOOK BOOK〜Melty Strawberry Chocolate〜」

Today, Q-Pot. is releasing their new Seasonal LOOK BOOK,
so I can finally share this with you!

Back in July, I was approached by the Q-Pot. team asking if I could send them some pictures so they could feature one in their upcoming Seasonal LOOK BOOK in the overseas customers part.
Since I'm a huge Q-Pot. lover I said yes, of course!

My partner in crime and I decided to go around the Seine, between Concorde and the Musée d'Orsay, during the golden hour to take very Parisian pictures ( very cliché but no Eiffel Tower because, eh... )






 What a beautiful view, Paris looks amazing when the sun goes down!

My outfit for this day was super casual and comfy with many red details to match my Q-Pot. ring.
The salopette has little strawberries and cherries printed on it! 
Also, I remember what a hot summer it was...
(Sorry for the crappy phone picture)



Salopette : Indie Brand 
Top : H&M
Shoes : H&M
Hairdress: Offbrand
Tote bag : OLT x Uniqlo
Ring: Q-Pot. (of course!)


I can't wait to receive my copy! Have you seen the cute 4 way purse that comes with it? 
It will be perfect for a chocolate outfit ♥ 








See you soon and 
take care until next time ♥

Angelic Pretty Tea Party 2016


As always, I'm super late! 
Is it ok if I say I was waiting for the official pictures to be released?

The day started quite early for me because I had to go to the model rehearsals during the morning. I'm beyond happy I got to model for Angelic Pretty once again ! This time, the show was going to be bigger than last year and AP's fashion show coordinator was here to work on the show with us. And that's a very good point ! 

I arrived to the Westin Vendome a bit early (yes I wasn't late at all wow you're impressed, right?) so I waited in the gorgeous lobby until the rehearsal began. Soon Roxane was here too! I was so excited because this was going to be our first time modeling together ♥

And very quickly, everyone was here and we got into the Salon Impérial, where the tea party was held. It was really impressive, all golden, fancy and beautiful!




The AP team welcomed us, I was so happy to see them again! RinRin, Chikage and Risa were already there getting ready.

We discovered our outfits and started dressing up before begining the actual rehearsals. 
I got to wear the Cirque de l'Étoile OP which is one of my favorite dresses from the Autumn collection! Not my usual style but it seems I always got to wear reddish or brownish outfits when AP decides. The AP team was here to help us getting ready and this time we also had a hair and make-up artist which was the same as two years ago for the photoshoot we did in Paris! The photographer was also the same!

We had a lot of space to get ready, tables with lots of mirrors so I decided to style my hair myself but I went to check with Maki if twintails where OK and I ended up with twintails (yay) and glittery stars in my hair! 


Once my hair was covered in stars and my make-up was done, I checked with Maki if everything was OK (once again) and she gave me a scepter to complete my outfit. I felt so fancy, ah ! 

We had a lunch break with sandwiches and pastries, then we began the rehearsals.
I don't remember how much we spend rehearsing, then Honda-san checked everyone's outfit to fix the final details. We practiced a lot until it was time to hide in the backstage and wait until the fashion show. I was nervous but also very very excited! Actually, I was way less nervous than last year and enjoyed the show a lot more~

♥ Parisian afternoon with RinRin ! ♥


The day after Angelic Pretty's opening, I met with Marie, Mila, Roxane and her mom at Ladurée and we had a very special guest for the afternoon: RinRin!
She was in Paris for the grand opening tea party and wanted to spend some time around Paris.
I was beyond happy to be a part of it ♥


We started by a delicious afternoon tea at Ladurée. Iced teas and iced chocolates, delicious cakes, macarons and the most wonderful company!



Meet the squad! 
Always very busy documenting our food or whatever we are doing here...


Santé ! Best iced chocolate ever (would recommend 100%) ♥


After filling our stomachs with delicious treats, we took a souvenir picture in front of the fancy Ladurée window and headed to more adventures ! (More like Roxane's Mom took a hundred pictures for us because she's always so sweet, thank you again! ♥)


We took the subway and stopped at Saint-Paul, right in the heart of Le Marais.
Le Marais is a very fashionable area of Paris filled with thrift stores and small boutiques.
It has its own atmosphere and it's less crowded than rue de Rivoli or the Champs-Élysées!
We walked around and RinRin even found all the items she was looking for, yaaay! 
RinRin wanted to film our outfits so I grabbed my camera to take pictures of everybody
Behold pretty people and a pink potatao a.k.a. me~ 



Roxane + dounts I can't even aaah this is too cute ♥



Marie is always so elegant, even when the heat is trying to kill us ♥



Mila was Neb Aaran Do fluffy perfection that day ♥



I'm pretty sure RinRin is some sort of magical fairy ♥



Pyjama kei !And yes, I was wearing the cutsew OP I got the day before in a lucky pack.
It looks and feels like a pyjama, it's a blessing honestly ! 
OP: Angelic Pretty, Shoes: Creamy Mami, Bag: Street Fashion Europe, Accessories: Angelic Pretty, Mello by StrawberryPlanet, gifts and offbrand 


(I said I took pictures of everybody but I forgot to take a picture of myself 
so I stole those two pictures form Marie, thank you~ ) 


Forever instagraming my life ~ 
Another souvenir picture with my Instax but it seems like it chose the wrong settings, why did you do this to me Instax WHY?)
I don't know how long we stayed in that street but we stayed quite a while, yes.
The following pictures are from RinRin's twitter, I love this one so so much ♥ 


Sadly, Marie and Mila were both super tired because they had been working on NHK's booth at Japan Expo all morning long. RinRin asked us if we had plans for diner. Roxane, her mom and I had no real plans for the rest of the afternoon so we stayed with RinRin a while more ! 

We walked to Beaubourg and started looking for a nice place to have diner. While we were on our way, we stopped by a supérette RinRin was so amazed by all the packaging, it reminded me when I fist walked into a kombini back in Tokyo. Same reaction ! RinRin wanted to try typical French food so on her friend's advice and with Roxane's googling skills, we ended eating at a brasserie called Le Petit Marcel which reopened very the same day!

Their menu is filled with typical french cuisine, they also have one of my favorites which is canard confit and it was really good! I'm glad RinRin liked it because it comes from South West France and that's also from where I come from! Roxane and her Mom chose 


Another thing happened, we ordered some appetizers... RinRin wanted to try escargot, which are literally snails (cooked with butter and garlic, but still...) It's supposed to be a typical french dish très français oui oui  and it seems like I wasn't really good at being french because I never tried it before.
It was strange (really squishy) but it was also good and tasty ! And it was very fun to give it a try~


Now we are forever snail buddies, how classy !
The staff was really nice and we enjoyed our meal very much. Also, it seems like one for them knew about RinRin so, more fun ! She took so many pictures! Maybe you saw them on her snapchat or her twitter ? 

After we were done filling our stomachs (once again), RinRin took us to her hotel so we could work on some secret plans all together in the lobby...
After that, we said bye until tomorrow to RinRin because we'll see each other again during the Angelic Pretty tea party ♥ 


It was so nice to hang out with RinRin during her free time, she's such a sweet person!
I can't wait for her to come back ♥



See you soon and 
take care until next time ♥

♥ 7/7 Afternoon ♥

After resting again at Aki during Mila's lunch break, Roxane, her mom and I decided to go for a walk around Bastille. We wanted to stop by Lush but also... Rue Crémieux!

If you nerver heard about it, Rue Crémieux is a cute little street in Paris XII district and it's famous for it's cute pastel colored houses. Guess which one was my favorite ?

I wanted to visit this street for soo long and I'm really happy I went there with Roxane and her mom ♥


I love all the pastel colors and little details on the houses. 
Little birds, little cats and lots of plants !






There was many tourists (and fashion bloggers I guess?) so we didn't took as many pictures as we wanted. Also, not to forget about the heat because we were pretty much boiling in the sun. 
I'll definitely go back to take better pictures someday ~



See? Beloved headbow is already glued on the top of my head ♥
Also mandatory pictures in front of a pink house, pretending I live here but I forgot the keys.

JSK: Angelic Pretty
