Feeling festive?

Inspired by ARAEL‘s beautiful and sexy Christmas photos, decided to take some time to make some Christmas themed outfits for pix ^^;

And oh to make the Santa hat yourself in all sizes, here’s a tutorial I made a few years ago ^o^/

A bit rushed, since Christmas is coming up very very soon!

Aki at Shinjuku Koen

Supplies! (25 Nov 2011)

Moar photos taken in Japan, the strange thing is there’s always a paradox feeling with regards to our favorite place – Japan, I thought I took a lot of photos, bought a lot of things, yet when I look back it just doesn’t feel enough?!

NagatoPyon in Japan

Cannot believe I’m already back in Canada… ^^;

Still have a lot of photos to post, but I should post about my meet (24 Nov 2011) with the lovely NagatoPyon and her partner who’s currently studying in Japan!

The first night we hung out, she brought her kawaii Yumi chan! ^o^ Thank you Sas-chan for kindly asking the volks shop attendant about taking a quick photo in their display booth :3 It was probably our record speed booth photo so far XD (maybe under 5 minutes?!) Also thanks for taking us to the yummy pizza place, must go back again in future when we’re in Japan!

Kinkaku ji

We went to Kinkaku-ji in Kyoto on a public holiday in Japan (23 Nov 2011)… Terrible idea!  Not only there’s a LOT of tourists, there’s a LOT of locals visiting too ^o^; It was “people mountain people sea” – a direct translation of a chinese saying… :P

Husband said it felt like there’s 10,000 people in the park with us >_< a lot of the pathways are almost always full of people, it was stressful, ^^; I think I was so stressed I couldn’t smile when I was in pix :P
