Cotton Cloud Summer Debut + Busy Days~

Oh gawd~ I apologize for not blogging for almost a month now. Ugh things had been hectic during internship... And I got a bonus on my first day in ICU, my CPC (Clinical Placement Co-ordinator - they are the people who guide us and look after us in the hospital since there are no teachers there. So basically they're like "teachers" note the open/close quote) looked like as if she wanted to eat me for basically not knowing what was going on... Well hell, how would I?! It was my frickin first day! I didn't even get a chance to look at the patient properly... Jeez~ I hate her really, whenever I see her face a dark dark cloud just suddenly appears above my head... (=_=)

Moving on to a better topic! I've been wanting to announce since forever that Nozomi was going to open her own fashion line called "Cotton Cloud". I just never got to it, I kept on forgetting plus with my schedule I never had a chance. You know the way how Nozomi loves her Maron-chan and Luna-chan so much~ Cotton Cloud are clothes for ladies and clothes + accessories for your little baby doggies that are designed by Nozomi herself. At the moment it seems to be geared more so towards your pups, but she does have some for us (ladies) but there's not much choices compared to the pups.

Nozomi has been advertising her Line in her blog since last month. To everyone who idolizes her like me~ her Cotton Cloud is now open! Cotton Cloud's summer debut started today via Internet Shopping! You can go here for the official website: www.cottoncloud.jp and here for the shop: www.cottoncloud.net

She modeled her own clothes for the advertisements in both Mina and Non-no this of June's Issue~

Cotton Cloud featured in Minna~

I've decided that she designed clothes better for dogs~ Maron chan and Luna chan!

A few more clothes from Cotton Cloud's Summer Debut~

In her blog she complained about how the spelling in Non-no "Cotton Clowd" was wrong it should've been spelt as "Cotton Cloud" (^A^)

笑っていいとも! Guest Nozomi~

Yesterday, Nozomi was featured in 笑っていいとも!(Waratte Iitomo!) wearing her designed dress and hat which are both up for sale now online! It's simple and lovely but really expensive though I have to say. I love her style and I did visit her online shop and looked at things that were available.

Here are a few pics of the dresses that I love from her shop~

Yep it's what she wore in 笑っていいとも!

It's costs 14,490円 when converted into euro it was around 100 euros (=.=)

The white dress that she modeled to debu cotton cloud in both magazines Non-no and Mina

This costs 16,590円 and when converted it's around 130 euros~

This costs 9,975円 and when converted it's around 80 euros...

The back is low cut~

So at the moment those are the three dresses that captivate me right away when I visited her shop. I love dresses, laces, and ribbons! She has all of those elements in most of her dresses and style there for I love it~

Now with regards to her design, it's simple and pretty casual, light and easy on the eyes. It's really really simple and casual which is good for people who don't want to stand out too much but want to remain in style. However, when it comes down to the price. I don't think I'll be spending 100 euros for a dress that simple... Really it's too ordinary for a 100 euro...

I know that she's famous and all that jazz but really you can buy something that simple half price in either zara or h&m. I LOVE HER DESIGNS and everything I applaud her for that but the price was really disappointing and shocking. It's just too much for those kinds of designs...

But then again everyone has their own opinions right? So tell me what you guys think!

If anyone wants to have a look around Nozomi's designs I'll leave the link below:

Ribbons & Internship Glooms~

In all honesty, I feel so bummed out that I'm going back to my internship my 2 weeks off wasted away. I had a whole lot of plot bunnies that I did write down but never got to the end. Worst of all I never managed to even start the new chapter of MDS in which I originally planned to at least finish the new chapter before I go back. But I never go to it at all, which makes me feel even more grumpy.

In short I am so not looking forward for tomorrow... I would rather prefer to sit in one of the lecture halls and actually listen to any my professor than go out and do the internship... But I'll try to keep a positive attitude in mind in order for my day to at least turn out well. I do believe in the saying the when you have a positive out look in life, things turn out for the best and go your way.

Oh well~ anyways, I went to the shop yesterday of a different branch but guess what... That dress was sold out! (-3-) ugh. But it's ok, I'm actually happy that I didn't get to spend much on that day. Because whenever I spend too much it makes me feel guilty. Besides I got to meet two of my best high school friends.

We always hit it off the rocks ever since we reached high school. We were in a big group at the beginning. Mari had her own set of people who she was close to while Antonia and I were just one of those people who hung out with everybody. But now it's just us the 3 of us who remained close and got even closer.

We sat in a coffee shop and just talked for hours and hours until it was time to say good bye. It was a great day I should say so myself, I like catching up with friends from time to time since it never gets boring. It makes me giddy so much. Ah~ I miss them already, were hoping to meet up this week as well if our schedules would fit.

On the other hand, I'd like to show everyone a few things I bought for the past few weeks while I was fooling around instead of finishing the goals that I set myself. It makes me feel like I'm such a lousy person... (-.-")

Ribbon Hairband from Awear!

When I saw it I just had to have it for 8 euro which I thought was not bad at all.

I don't know when my Ribbon obsession started all I can remember is that I've been in love with these bows since my junior high school days. I must say I was mostly influenced by my friends who were really the girly girly types at that time.

I apologize for the bad quality of lighting, but this hair bow color was a really cute baby pink~

I Heart~♥

I absolutely love hair bows well anything with ribbons really. I don't recall the name of the shop where I bought this honestly. It was when I was just walking along random shops and went in to some that I saw this! There were two of them actually, the other one was silver and I REALLY REALLY did think hard on which one to buy. I was tempted to buy both but ended up buying the pink one for obvious reasons?

Whenever I have to put my hair up I always bring ribbons with me just to jazz it up and make the overall image cute! I like to let my hair down most of the times, but when I get really agitated, hot or when I feel messy I put it up. So I always bring hair ties with me with a bow of course~ (^.~)

Try it and see if it suits your style~
