ryuukou style :)

so i'm in this livejournal community and i semi-religiously post entries on it. i was looking for cute stuff that would be on my wish-list (that will always remain a wish) and OMG...cuteness. i didn't know early summer clothes could be this cute, seriously.




akina minami is soooo freaking cute in this litira dress. too bad her voice is sort of irritating. i do still however, think she is one of the cutest gravure models out there.




anything from alba rosa...is amazing.





gilfy has this sporty-boyish but feminine silhouette i really like.





i really want an A-line smiley shirt :( and cecil linc is one of my new favorite brands.





ayano fukuouji is seriously genius. her girly tink pink and ahkah accessories are to die for.




hyan (also a friend of rinka's) just produced holiday and her collection is so girly-sophisticated, i love it. too bad it's still a small brand (products are very limited) and hyan's attitude towards her customers is sorta sucky.

lacy, girl shorts.

they're starting to gain popularity in japan this spring/summer and i am desperately seeking a few pairs. i've been frantically looking for a pair under $50 (or 5000 yen). i love the combination of these lacy,ruffly shorts with a long tunic. i found a pair in black at urban outfitters that i am considering. i really want a white or pink one but so far, no luck.

one fashion trend i just don't understand.

i just think they are so over-the-top. even the hippies at my school don't wear them. it makes me cringe when i see it in vivi.

sunglasses 08.

i have decided to get a pair (or 2) of heart shaped sunglasses for this summer. aren't they the cutest things ever?

the perfect booties.

so the gap blazer didn't work out too well. it was a bit too big. but no probbz. i found a perfect fit (with gold buttons!!!!) at dillard's for $40 in the boys section. i haven't bought it since i don't really have $40 to spare right now...but i'll get one asap.

yesterday, lucas and i went shopping at hanes mall and i juust found out they opened a forever 21 there. lucas bought a million clothes and i found the perfect black oxford booties.

the thick heel makes it easier to walk in and i can't wait to wear these with solid black tights.

size 2 petite.

damnit! yesterday, i went to the gap and checked out that navy blazer, liked it, decided i was gonna buy it in petite (since i'm a bit short, haha) after i checked out goodwill sometime during the weekend. i came home around 3 or so, checked it back up online, yep, still there. well, 5 hours later,,,not anymore! i was sooo disappointed. i just wasn't up for paying a shitload of money and that was the only jacket i could find that was the right length. i ended up buying the size 2 on impulse. lengthwise, it seems okay. not sure about the bust and overall. if not, i can just return it to the store, they take back online purchases - which is amazing!

navy blazer article in soup that i'm totally digging.

gap navy blazer.

i want a navy blazer so bad. gap's is the only one i can find with an overall shorter length. i'm planning on going and trying it out at the store maybe tomorrow..

too bad it doesn't have gold buttons...
