Hello lovelies! How are you? ♪

One of my most favourite brands ever, Katie, has released their Fall&Winter 2013 collection and I want to show you some pictures~ ^-^

 

The collection is called 'Very Lingerie!!' and what can i say... I love it ♥ ♥
I'm so in love with all lingerie-inspired clothing in general, be it lots of frills and ruffles, creepy-cute fetish and babydoll ones, 50s-Style, or everything at once haha ♥ And the new Katie Collection is no exception *-*

 

Now on to the pictures~

 

 Pastels & Red is such an awesome combination ♥ I will definitely try this for autumn ^-^

                                        

Lovely Katie bags ♪

 ...aaand these gorgeous pins *-* I need all of them ♥

On Katie's website you can find more lovely coords from their newest clothing!

So, I am, as expected, completely in love with the new collection... what do you think?

 

I get super excited when I think about my trip to Japan and that I will actually be able to visit the Katie store in person~ This is a dream come true for me!!

 

 

That's it for now, I wish you all a wonderful week!

 

 

 

 

What makes me feel alive ♥

Hello everyone, how are you ?

Today was very exciting for me, because you know what?
!! I booked my flight to Japan !! ^___^

Yes, it finally has come true, in about one month I will move to Japan and start my Work and Travel  journey through Japan and South Korea <33
This journey means everything to me, I have wanted to go to Japan since I was 11 years old so you can imagine how overly excited I am right now *__*
I booked my flight at sta travel, I can really recommend them to everyone who wants to do Work and Travel, they are experienced with this kind of customers ;) Plus: although I could only book my flight one month before the price was still good I think~

 

The shop where I bought my flight ticket ^-^ <3

What I will do: It was clear to me that I will try my best to fulfill my lifetime dream, travelling to Asia, after I've finished school. I thought about what kind of experience I want to make and found that "WWOOFing" will be the right choice for me :) If you don't know about it, I will talk about what WWOOFing is and why I wanted to do this in a later post <3 Now I'm looking forward to a nearly 6-month stay in my two beloved countries.

Not every station of my journey is confirmed yet, but I guess that's part of the experience and it's a bit exciting to not know exactly where the journey will go ^__^
My first stop will be Osaka, Japan!
And, as I stated in my very first post on this blog, I'm planning to use this blog as a kind of diary so there will be posts about my journey and lots of cute stuff regularly :)

Please note: I will update this post and add pictures as soon as I'll come to my pc again, I was just too excited and needed to make a post about it immediately ^__^

Have a nice day <3

Shopping: Katie Trianon Collection

Hello darlings ♥ 
I'm back from my first journey this year~  It was my first time in wonderful !Paris! and it was so so so amazing! I'm in love with this city ♥
I will post a report of my trip this weekend I think..

But for now I want to write a short post about one of my most favourite shops in Tokyo: Katie!

Katie is a clothing brand with their main shop located in Tokyo! In the shop description on their website it says: 

"TAKI & LINDA's brand "Katie" was born with its core theme of "Girly & Rock steady".
The collection is inspired by TAKI & LINDA's love of music, movie, artists, punkband.......and more!
Katie seeks a style which has a girl's charm.
any girl has a specially power, that is "pretty" side and "dark" side.
Katie fans are aged between 20-30 and are working girls, fashion people, band girls and many other kind of cult girls!"

Sounds lovely, right? ^__^ This fashion is perfect for me because it's really cute but on the other hand it has a darker, deeper side as well! They just recently released their catalogue for spring/summer 2013 and I want to show you some pictures!  ♣ ♠

 I'm already in love with the 'Trianon' collection ♥ I especially like the dress in the upper left corner.. so lovely! The name reminds me of Marie Antoinette's 'Petit Trianon', a small palace placed in the garden of Versailles (which I visited last week ^__^ ).

They also sell very cute accessories! I want to have one of those KATIE rosettes, they're about 2,730 yen! And I want to try the new perfume as well ! ^////^ It smells like cherries, how sweet is that? 

 more cherries  ♪

I think Risa is a perfect model for this collection, she looks so amazing and she's also the shop staff at KATIE ♥ (Although Amo, who modelled in several previous collections, is also adorable!)

I really recommend you checking out their website for more fashion and updates! They're really popular in Japan right now, especially with girls who like Nadia, etc. They have an own blog too and the photos of Courtney Love, kinderwhore and riot grrl imagery on the shop blog make my feminist heart leap for joy ♥ ♥

So, what do you think of the new collection? Let me know in the comments! ^^
