Lunch at a small pasta shop behind Harajuku! Smoked salmon and cream sauce tagliatelle! Yummmmm!

Day out with my sister.
April 9th. Was a tonne of fun talking fashion, family and boys, haha. Went to Harajuku and checked out Kitson, Topshop, H&M and the back streets of Omotesando!
Found nothing that I listed below... And decided that maybe maxi dresses are not for me! Hehe
----
Makes me look so small doesn't it? Like a tiny Japanese girl - something I am not so accustomed to! I think I will stick to minis! Still on the look out for a nice romantic white top and spring leather jacket! Keep me posted! :)

My Wishlist

Going shopping with my sister tomorrow. There are SO many things that I am lusting over...

- Maxi Dress (which is better? flower print? or black? Floral is on trend, but black is SO much easier to wear... especially since I bought these red Diesel Black Gold sandals!)
- Leather jacket for the spring (tan brown or beige and preferably short)
- A white folklorish top, flow-y and romantic
- Headbands
- a non leather sling bag
- one-piece shorts

and the list goes on! Since working at Diesel, I am a lot more into trying different styles than I was before. I was happy with my jeans a t-shirt but now I'm a little more keen to try something else! Money flies out the window that way but hopefully I will be able to find snatch up some good deals tomorrow!

Sherlock Holmes


Today John and I went watch Sherlock Holmes (yes, films open very late in Japan!) the new film by Guy Ritchie....
And it was incredible! I didn't expect that it was going to be anything special, but I was really quite impressed with the way it was filmed and it's story telling. There was not one boring moment. I knew Robert Downing Jr. would do a good job as he usually is quite phenomenal in everything he does, but I was also pleasantly surprised with Jude Law!
I'm not going to write about the story here as I don't want to ruin it for anyone, but watch the trailer, (http://trailers.apple.com/)and go see the movie if you haven't already, and it is still out in your movie theatre.
I really enjoyed Hans Zimmer's input once again, and I can't wait till the next one!

I love this plant. My snowleaf plant. It has grown quite big since I bought it last year in october! I am proud of myself for not killing it. I really credit Chako for giving John and I flowers when she heard of our engagement. Having flowers in our house made everything smell so much nicer an look more homey... I liked that feeling so much now we have candles, flowers and plants.... Right now we are thinking of buying a place... Wherever we go I hope we have the sunlight!

The girls at my store are real fashionable. They are daring and yet not too outlandish! I really think they mix the quirky and the trend of the season quite well! What do u think?

Minnetonka Moccasins are so comfortable! I bought these in a store called Chapter at Lumine Est today! Chapter predominantly sell sneakers but sometimes they will have uggs, emus, and Minnetonkas! They also sell them at an affordable price as they order directly from overseas and don't have a Japanese company in the middle trying to make profits. So I got these today for 9000yen today which isn't too bad! What do you think? I can't decide what kind of clothes Im into these days :) it's quite a lot of fun wearing clothes I never use to! Will post pics hopefully in due course!
