But guess what the motivation is back :D I can't promise that I will keep my old a-post-every-three-days pace but I'll try to be as active as possible. I already have some posts planned so stay tuned!  (mostly reviews comming up ;D)

Prague Travel Diary - Day 2 & Day3

On the second day of angelsdaydream and my Prague trip was my birthday  ♥ We went to the Astronomical Clock again , visited the Tim Burton exhibition and the Alphonse Mucha museum. We also had some cake and later a drink at John Lenon Pub to celebrate my birthday a bit. (◕‿◕✿)

Franz Kafka Memorial

I wore my new Amavel.jp dress. Review coming up!

At the Tim Burton exhibition taking photos was prohibited but they had this outside the museum :D

Tim Burton is such a great artist.  The exhibition was definitely inspiring (︶▽︶)

Sorry not sorry haha xD I love Mucha's work so much *^* 

Again very inspiring!

Prague at night. So beautiful *^*

We also passed by a museum specializing on old trick film. They had this awesome scenery to take photos in front of the museum. I couldn't resist striking a silly pose hehe ^^"

This is how I will be remembered :'D

It was an awesome day.

On the third day we were already quite exhausted from all the walking we did the last two days. We visited the TV Tower which conveniently was near to our hostel. We also chilled in a park and had huge Pizza yeah ;D 

Sadly I was too stupid to take outfit pictures on the last day even though I really liked my outfit T_T I think I will wear it again to show it to you guys :D

Well I have this picture of my back hehe ^^ I really like this shot!

Well and that's it for our adventure in Prague!
Have you been to Prague before? Are you planing to go somewhere soon?

Prague Travel Diary - Day 1

On the weekend from 11th to 13th July I have been to Prague with my dear friend angelsdaydream. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ
It was the weekend of my 20th birthday and I wanted to make sure to do something I will keep in good memory. (◡‿◡✿)

We went to Prague by bus, took a four hours ride. When we arrived at the hostel our room wasn't ready yet so we left our luggage, snatched a map and began the crazy sightseeing. We went to Charles Bridge, Prague Castle, St.Vito's Cathedral and many more sights. I think the first day was my favourite day (*◕‿◕*)

Charles Bridge is so charming!

It was nice to admire the crafts that are sold there and enjoying the view from the bridge.

Feeling tiny in that window-thingy ^^ 

We walked up the whole way to Prague Castle just to get caught by rain ; _ ; It still was very nice though :3

Astronomical Clock! So nice to look at :3

I also tried to look rather cute all three days so here is a outfit close-up :D

Do you guys like sightseeing?

Stay tuned for part two of this post!

Mintkismet Commodities & Swimmer Review

Already some time ago I ordered a SWIMMER bag through an storenvy shop called mintkismet commodities.
The same day the lace gloves I ordered through another storenvy shop arrived to, so this will be a three-in-one review. I will review mintkismet commodities service, the SWIMMER bag itself and the gloves (◕‿◕✿)

Minkismet Commdities (MCK) is run by two girls, Danielle who lives in Oregon/USA and Sou who lives in Japan. Sou only receives the items and sends them to Danielle. The shipping costs you pay is the one from Oregon to your place. If you order via storenvy you won't have much contact with either of them and if you have to message them it's always Danielle whom you are in contact with. 

It was in May that MKC had a preorder for two SWIMMER bags (here) and (here). The actually only offered the handbag version of the bag I ordered but I decided to be blunt and ask them if it was possible for them to get me the shoulder bag. They said it was no problem and set up a custom listing for me (◕‿◕✿)

I paid on 5th May.

On 20th May the bag arrived at Sou's place. 

Then I had to wait a little because there were other things Sou also 

wanted to ship to Oregon that hadn't arrived yet. 

On 4th June the bag arrived at Danielle's place.

She shipped it one day later and on 12th June it finally arrived at my place.

During the whole process the contact was very nice and she answered fast. 

I also asked her if it wasn't easier to send the bag to me directly from Japan as I live in Europe but she said that it's better for her this way. It doesn't really effect the price you pay so I didn't mind. 

I would order from MKC again!

Now onto the bag!

 I love this bag so much!♥  It's cute and also really roomy. Just as I expected based on the other SWIMMER bag I own. It seems to be sturdy but I didn't use it yet. 

To me SWIMMER bags are superior to all bags you can get on taobao. SWIMMER bags are original designs, really roomy and same or lower in price as common Lolita bags from taobao. 

If I lived in Japan I would shop there all the time. I love SWIMMER so much (◡‿◡✿)

Last but not least, the gloves.:

I ordered them here. They are as shown in the stock picture and regarding the price they are great. I maybe will spice up the end of the gloves a bit but altogether I'm satisfied. (Not to mention they came in a cute Little Twin Stars packaging ♥)

So I hope this post was helpful!

Do you own something from SWIMMER?

Crafternoon with Punkangel // International Lolita Day

Today is International Lolita Day and to celebrate it Punkangel and I held a Crafernoon at her house (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
Credit for all pictures goes to her!

Punkangel and I somehow switched styles today ^^ while she wore a Sweet Lolita outfit which isn't so typical for her my outfit was rather Classic and, oh shock, there was no pink in it :o

Blouse - F21 // Skirt - Selfmade // Socks - Topshop // Shoes - Secret Shop

yay for smiling hehe ^^

Love my new brooch ♥

We didn't craft too much as there was a lot to chat about but I made a little macaroon pendant. Post about it will follow if the necklace ever gets to be finished ^__~

It was a nice way to spend International Lolita Day and I was happy to finally see Punkangel again :3

How did you spend International Lolita Day?
