When I saw this teddybear mermaid necklace pop up in the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/386185566/mermaid-bear-necklace?ref=shop_home_active_15" target="_blank">Moon Bunny etsy shop</a>, I couldn't resist treating myself. It's a teddybear... and a mermaid. And it has little golden shell nip-covers. How ridiculously, hilariously cute is that!?</div>

I got this seashell mirror compact on ebay for a couple of quid and glued some swarovskis and plastic shells to it (I got the shells is a mermaid jewellery kit for kids and painted them gold).<br />

My birthday is coming up (and it's a big one) so I decided to save up and treat myself to something from the <a href="http://intl.q-pot.jp/shop/" target="_blank">Q-Pot International shop</a>. I was a little nervous as I'd never bought a necklace from them before; only rings which aren't as expensive. I shouldn't have been worried though as the pink shell macaron necklace I had decided on was so beautifully made and of such good quality that it was worth every penny. </div>

I think a lot of people have a "staple" look, the one you go to when you want to look fancy, but don't have any time to experiment with colour or new products. This one's mine: Mac 'Ruby-Woo' on the lips, Sugar Pill 'Love+' under the eyes and the cut-crease is a red pencil rubbed in my pinky and blended over with a black eyeshadow. Dead easy! I wore it to an art auction the other night.<br />

I've been having fun with my Too Faced Sugar Pop eyeshadow palette lately. This look is 'Blue Raspberry' (weirdly named because it's actually a nearly-matte turquoise) from the palette on the lids, blended out with some browns and bronzes.<br />

I've always wanted to own a piece of jewellery by amazing Japanese designer brand <a href="http://www.q-pot.jp/shop/" target="_blank">Q-Pot</a>, but for years I had forgotten all about it until something brought it back to mind recently. </div>

<a href="http://www.tickledshop.com/" target="_blank">Tickled Shop</a>, I found out recently, is one place that has a great variety of Q-Pot jewellery available to buy online. After taking ages to decide which item to treat myself to, I finally decided on the <a href="http://www.tickledshop.com/collections/q-pot/products/luxe-heart-chocolate-ring" target="_blank">Luxe Heart Chocolate Ring</a> and, when it arrived in the post, I wasn't disappointed with my choice!</div>

I just love how much it looks like a real chocolate truffle. The heart is made of PVC so it has a really nice weight to it as well. I even bought myself some big gold hooped earrings so I've got gold jewellery to match the ring when I wear it.<br />
<br />
I'm definitely planing to buy more jewellery by Q-Pot in the future. What about you guys? Do you own any Q-Pot? What are your favourite pieces?<br />

I'm also loving this B. Sweet <i>Popping Candy Highlighting Serum</i> from Superdrug's own brand 'B.'

I'm no expert so I'm not going to even attempt to give this palette a serious review, but, for my own purposes, it's great. <i>Macaron</i> (warm glittery peach) is really nice under the eyes and I love using <i>Rock Candy</i> (pale glittery cream colour) on my lids. I'm really glad I picked it up.<br />

I could never really justify spending that much money on a single cushion (what if I spill food on it? What if my hair dye rubs off on them?!), however, to my surprise, my sister had had a brilliant idea. She bought all four Nathalie Du Pasquier tote bags from a lovely Glasgow based shop called <b><a href="http://tojodesign.com/" target="_blank">TOJO Design</a> </b>and she and my mum set about making them all into cushions. How cool is that? </div>

Christmas went by so quickly this year, despite the fact I felt like I'd been preparing for it for ages. </div>

Before and after. It was nice to get my hair done in time for Christmas for once (pre-booking is a tricky habit to master) so my hair is looking nice and sharp and pink (and matching my lippie, of course). <br />

I still love our little black tree with its pastel lights. Folk who say white lights are classier can get lost! And... er, I've decided that 'pink and turquoise' is the new 'red and green'. Way more cute as Christmas colours!<br />

Oh yeah, and this is the handbag I made my mum for her Christmas present! I did it using <a href="http://www.rebekalambert.com/artsycrafty_babe/2009/06/the-people-have-spoken.html" target="_blank">this pattern</a>. I've never made a handbag before... or probably will again... or have ever followed a pattern before, but I got matched with my mum in our family's Christmas present syndicate and wanted to make her something special. It's made of yellow wool with a silk lining and has a magnetic fastener. </div>

<br />
Lastly (and tastiestly) here are the two cakes a made for our family Christmas dinner. A red velvet cake and a dark chocolate and pistachio cake. I have to confess the icing on the RV one is shop bought as, after two batches of failed gloopy, liquidy cream cheese icing, I gave in and turned to Asda for some help. I must ask my mother in law how she makes hers...<br />
<br />
Anyway, I hope you guys had a lovely Christmas this year. Did you get any cool presents?? I'm still spending my Christmas money! Although I did get an extra cool present I'll be posting about very soon.<br />

We picked up some matcha pocky and some little pastries with red bean filling from Lim's and even managed to find Turbo Kid on dvd, after searching for it in the cinema listings for ages. <br />

Buying a video you've never you've heard of before can be a risky thing. Sometimes a film that looks cool in the shop will turn out to be a total disaster. This was definitely not the case with <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097911/" target="_blank">Moontrap</a> which is great a great little '80s scifi film. Just don't make the mistake of only watching it because it's got both Walter Koenig and Bruce Campbell in it (they're both great in it); you really have to be a fan of (slightly naff '80s) scifi to love this one. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My screenshots give a little bit away so if you want to watch it, go and pick up a copy (I got mine in Fopp) and don't look at the rest of this post. The film has funny lines, awesomely creepy robot/cyborgs and some genuinely "scifi" ideas. I can't recommend it enough!</div>

I'm really feeling in the halloween spirit this autumn so I took some halloween themed photos of my coffin purses to show them off a bit better.

I finally got my hair chopped the other week to a long bob, something I've wanted for ages. I'm not ruling out growing it long again, but it's so nice to get rid of the black ends that I was growing out and to have a proper "style" for the first times in ages. </div>

Ok, I'm a little bit in love with the Sanrio character Gudetama right now. He's a lazy, adorable egg yolk with a butt so how could anyone not love him? Unfortunately, with Sanrio being a Japanese company, the shipping on Gudetama is quite dear and, although I did treat myself to a bundle of collectible gashapons (bottom picture), I couldn't really justify buying a Gudetama bag which is what I really wanted.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Instead I decided to use fabric paint and make a D.I.Y. one for myself as a treat! (It's only for personal use, don't worry). </div>

To brighten up our bedroom a bit, I decided to make some bunting recently. I have no idea why I'm obsessed with yellow at the moment, but I am and working in a fabric shops means I get tempted by lovely fabrics all day, that's for sure. Below, you can see the bunting in its place in our room. The stuff on the bed was some <a href="http://alisonlisahorn.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/cute-things-from-tofu-cute.html" target="_blank">Japanese candy</a> from <a href="https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCIQFjAAahUKEwi0idHR8o_GAhXLB9sKHS1gADs&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tofucute.com%2F&ei=09J9VfTTIMuP7AatwIHYAw&usg=AFQjCNH-QpNi__ACN4r2f1G7aFLUdS6J-g&sig2=C_WHK84FOlKi2e85eGiy2Q&bvm=bv.95515949,d.ZGU" target="_blank">Tofu Cute</a> I surprised my husband with and also a copy of Akira on DVD (can you see what theme I was going for here?!)</div>

I went a bit nuts the other week when my husband and I were off on holiday and ordered a bunch of cute Japanese things from <a href="http://www.tofucute.com/" target="_blank">Tofu Cute</a>. Sometimes going nuts pays off though as everything I ordered turned out to be super cute/tasty!</div>

<br />
I couldn't resist (and I really tried. Believe me.) buying this Pote Usa loppy bunny charm by Amuse Plush. It comes in six different styles, but I fell in love with the albino one as soon as I saw it.<br />
<br />

<br />
Pens are a sensible thing to buy, right? I mean, I'm always running out of pens. It's only a coincidence that these Mameshiba (a dog that's also a bean? How great is that?!) pens happen to be utterly, adorable as well. As pens go, I mean. The styles I got were: kidney bean, coffee bean and green bean. <br />

<br />
I also got a bunch of ridiculous sweets for us to try out. These Koala March biscuits by Lotte really did taste like cheesecake in the centre.<br />

<br />
I've never tried pocky before so I thought I'd order some in our "New Favourite Flavour"<span style="font-size: xx-small;"> (TM). </span>They were delicious.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since Japanese Kit Kat flavours are way more interesting than what we can get in the UK, I had to order some of those as well. I've never tried red bean paste, but it's definitely on my list now after trying these Hokkaido Red Bean Kit Kats. The flavour was really interesting.<br />

<br />
After seeing my husband's reaction to the after-kick, I chickened out a bit with the Hot Shinsya Chilli Kit Kats and only ate a tiny nibble. Not for the faint-hearted!<br />
<br />

<br />
These Tamaruya Wasabi Kit Kats were more my cup of tea than the chilli ones. They had a very subtle, but totally recognisable wasabi taste that hits the sinuses.<br />

<br />
Last, but not least, is this Puccho Melon mini bento tote bag which I think will be a very handy thing to have.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, the quality of the products from Tofu Cute was even better than I'd expected. And that, combined with the cheap prices and quick shipping means I'll definitely be ordering from them again!Ali Hornhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08711185901246462555noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4371152221267412460.post-52661893615939543652015-05-05T18:09:00.000+01:002015-05-13T21:15:51.454+01:00Trying Matcha Lattes For The First TimeMy husband and I are both off work this week so, the other day, in the spirit of adventure, we tried matcha tea for the first time! They was only from EAT and were in the form of lattes so they were probably a lot sweeter and milkier than the real deal, but it's a start. To be honest, I only wanted to try it in the first place because it's such a cool colour, but I think, having tried it, I might have caught the craving for the taste.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I'm working at my desk, I like to have a scented candle in front of me. For some reason it just seems to help me get into the zone and focus on what I'm drawing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I've always been on the lookout for a clove scented candle and, recently, I bought one from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ItalicHome" target="_blank">ItalicHome</a> to try, based on their good reviews.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
It's a brilliant little candle that smells strong even when it's not burning and, when it is, fills the whole room with the wonderful, warm scent of cloves. I absolutely love it.<br />
<br />

<br />
I also treated myself to this gorgeous necklace from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/MARIAELA" target="_blank">Mariaela</a> too. It came beautifully packaged and is a one of a kind so no two are alike.<br />

<br />
I'm a little obsessed with moss lately. I think it's because it reminds me of my little "<a href="http://alisonlisahorn.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/new-er-pet.html" target="_blank">pet</a>" (even though it's not really moss) and it's green which is the colour of a lot of the lovely things in life like forests. And gherkins. And green vegetables. And pistachio-flavoured sweets. I could go on and on...<br />

<br />
We've been hunting for the perfect reed diffuser for a while now and they either seem to be insanely expensive or smell like one of the following: "Fruit" (which I don't like - blegh), "Old Ladies' Houses", "Soap", "Something Foosty", or "Flowers That Make You Sneeze".<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Eventually, after a lot of going round shops, smelling bell-jars and giggling, we found this amazing Chestnut & Vetiver scented diffuser by Voluspa. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Of course, the idea of spending £40 for a reed diffuser makes me feel itchy just thinking about it, but luckily, it was massively reduced in the sale! Ha! Oh, and it smells amazing. It's a foody, Christmassy scent, but not overpowering. It's still very strong though and kind of foresty too. I only wish they did refills!<br />
<br />
Do you guys have any recommendations for good reed diffusers or other home scent products? (Or anywhere in the UK that does Voluspa refills..!? Help..!)<br />

♥ Cleaning my <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marimo" target="_blank">marimo</a>. I freshen his water once a week and give him a gentle squeeze evenly all over to get rid of any dirt particles. </div>

♥ And here's a recent (and very colourful) drawing of mine that I uploaded to instagram. You can see a proper picture of it <a href="http://alihorn.blogspot.co.uk/2015/02/jungle-procession.html" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

♥ Another make-up experiment: green on the top lid with pink glitter underneath. I don't think it really worked, but it was fun to do! Also I'm loving this lipstick which is Nyx's matte lipstick in the colour 'butter'. It's not really a genuine 'matte' effect, but it is a lovely greyish taupe colour.<br />
