To whomever is browsing the blog the next few weeks...I hope you're having a spectacular winter, celebrating whatever awesomeness you may!

Stylin'...

I'm a total control freak about my environment ESPECIALLY what's on myself, so I get in what many people would call style ruts but what I just call the Anna-form.

The past few years it's all been kawaii graphic tees, jeans and dessert-themed or 80's jewelry. I do like huge wedge heels but usually I wear flip-flops or Uggs. Pretty much casual/sporty-kawaii.

Now I've transitioned into giant tops and skinny jeans- soooo comfy!

Let me just say, Japanese styles are rocking my world. I've become a total Rakuten shopaholic.

I'm obsessing on about half the dolman/batwing tops on Rakuten! Srsly, I cannot find anything like these in the States. (I don't actually have the pink one yet but it's on its way.)They are so huge and baggy that they even *look* huge on me- success! If you're reading this and want to share, is there anything style-wise you LOVE but can't get in your area? I'd love to hear...

One go-to eye look...



 

Etude House Bling in the Sea Proof10 Auto Liner~ BR403

Etude House Tear Drop Liner~ #1 White Tear

Maybelline The Rocket mascara~ Very Black

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Love love love these eye staples! When I want easy-going neutral but with a little pick-me-up of sparkle this is it. The liquid tear liner takes some fiddling with- I had to experiment a bit, but I'm getting it where it looks good now. Since it has sparkle I don't want to actually line the inner rim but I try to get it as close to my lashes as possible.

Ramblings...

I don't have much to post at the moment (well, I do, but hell if I'm going to try to write up a coherent review or try to post many photos right now.) I have the tenacious-snot-crud that's going around and OMG I feel *blehhhgth* Seriously, this germ will fuck you up, SW Washingtonians. Fortunately, the offspring seems to be shaking his off at last. So I'm just going to chat a bit!

Recent purchases & first impressions...

In a desperate lunge toward better skin, I hauled A LOT the past month. I'll call them December hauls since they've arrived over the first week of.

 

As usual, my biggest order is from f2plus1. Their reliability keeps me coming back for new-to-me products and larger orders!
