There is no TIME for the cold

Well, I'm starting to get the basic idea of what cold is. And since I'm a valley girl, the cold is something that I am not at all use to.
I rather prefer the warmth than the cold on two reasons.
1. I can't 'produce' heat, and much less retain it. (It's like I change temp. to the surrounding environment >:V )
2. I start having 'Dead Man's Hands' as a proof to show how easy it is for me to get cold.
Every day during school when I have to go into a cold class room, my hands will line up with the temperature INSIDE that classroom. It is just not fun. >:/

ANYWHO! Due to the extreme cold that I am no where near to being use to, I did not have the favorable option of going out in lolita, or any type of skirt.
So this WHOLE WEEK, I've had nothing to wear but extremly layered clothing and dare I say it,
pants all week.

Its not that I don't like pants, but since a year or two ago I would wear nothing but skirt, skirt, dress, OP, Jsk, pants, and have the cycle repeat again.
It was the most unnatural thing I've done in a while and I feel so uncomfortable with it...

I hope it warms up next week, or at least during the weekend!

Goodie Haul + More!

As promised, the goodies I gotten during my time up in Austin~
And even some I had gotten over winter break! Yeaaah goodies+ more~!

My parents got me this for Christmas and I absolutely love it~
I never realized how much I loved tea after getting this! It was so nice to finally make some tea from the dried up leaves! We went to the mall over in Austin and found this neat-o tea shop with a great selection of dried up tea leaves! ( The shop was called Teavana )
It was so wonderful, I found a tea place for when I start staying in Austin for College! <3
Once I got back home I made my first batch of tea~! I had bought Maharaja Chai Oolong and Samurai Chai Mate. The store was giving out free samples and had these two mixed up so well. It was like love at first taste~ <3 I can't wait to go get some more!

Before we left for Austin, I decided to buy myself a few gifts!
As shown I got myself this adorable wallet! So pretty and half off awww yeaaa
A 3DS that i've really been wanting (and unfortunately all the pink ones where sold out! Boo! So I got this one but hey, free game too!~)
And of course Animal Crossing! I've been wanting to play this game forever! With my friends always talking about it and having such a great time visiting other towns I wanted to be in on the action. <3
(ask about my friend code -hint hint wink wonk-)



The day we where heading up to Austin I thought: Hey, I wanna wear something casual and cute and stuff. So I kinda did! I'm using an old T-shirt with fluffy sleeves, the skirt my mother gave to me for Christmas, tights with new ribbon leggings ( I really really liked them! <3 ) and my favorite pair of Mary Janes~
And  plus- I got bangs for the first time, and let me tell you, I never thought my hair could ever look nice with just the way it was. A+ choice.
The day of the Open House I dress up in my Card Suit OP and it was just so much fun! Got tons of compliments from the other students and some of the teachers~ It looks like Lolita is just perfect for this college~! So excited to start classes in July~! <33
We walked around a bit after the whole thing ended. We went to go get Pho at this cute little restaurant. It wasn't too good but ok. It as on a mini-strip mall so we went walking for a bit and I found this really neat shop that had all sorta things. I found this wooden box with a pentagram and something for my incense. Ive been wanting things to help me out with my studies and found just what I was looking for, pretty cheap too!



The next day we headed home and now here I am! These are a few of my more recent purchases.
The Ouija Board blanket was just SO CUTE I COULDN'T HELP MyseLF OH GOSH <33
I got myself a new phone since the other one was cracked so much! >m<
and finally a new dress! It isnt a lolita brand or anything big but just a forever21 velvet dress that was so pretty and perfect for casual lolita~ <3


That pretty much sums up the goodies so far! Any new ones I more then likly will post up on my Instagram! (find me by searching sstarfire99 )
I hope you enjoyed  this little goodies haul and i'll hopefully be posting up more things in the future~!

Till next time my lovelies~ <3

Happy New Year!

New Years resolutions right?...
This year I want to Loli-up my lifestyle, since lolita has been an opening up experience for me and I am truly happy with it in all aspects.
I also want to become more productive. Not only in my artist areas but also general work that I will need to get use to for when I head off to college..
I plan for this year to be a great one, and I'm not gonna let anything stop me from making it the best.
I hope that goes for you as well! 

Make it a wonderful year to your amazing life <3
 Love you all~
