Welcome little Galaxy

Tomorrow is my birthday and my amazing family and especially my baby sister surprised me with the best gift ever. A little baby girl Chihuahua who I have named Galaxy. My female Chihuahua Gwenivere is 15 now and so my family thought it would be time for a new puppy to join our family. I forgot how much work potty training a new puppy is, but I'm enjoying having someone to care for. I am sure pictures are the most important part of this post so allow me to spam you. 

Isn't she a cutie. I am completely in love. Expect many updates on her. 

Tokidoki Collecting

I have been collecting tokidoki for the past 10 years. It began with a lesportsac bag my Sis brought me home from a trip to Las Vegas. It quickly developed into an obsession of toys, clothes, jewelry, hair stuffs, plushies and anything else I could find. Tokidoki is the art of an amazingly talented man named Simone Leguno, you can find out so much more at www.tokidoki.it  Usually because I am not infinitely wealthy I sell off parts of this collection to add new pieces I can't live with out. Mostly this is with my bags, but, that works out because then I always have a new bag to carry. With the toys I buy what I love ans skip the rest. Today I stopped into Claire's to pick up some of the new blind bags by Neon Star. Most likely these will get turned into jewelry. 

They are about 2 inches in size and soooo cute. Their are 4 in this series and I pulled 5 today so I think that's pretty awesome. You can also buy these at www.tokidoki.it 

Kawaii Box Review

Have you heard of these subscription box thingies? It's like a mystery box that shows up at your house with stuff in it, usually stuff you like, in categories you pick. Their are tons of companies who sell these boxes. The site www.mysubscriptionaddiction.com has info on lots of subscription services, with reviews, coupons and spoilers. I decided I really wanted to sign up for one of these boxes and when I came across kawaii box co. I knew it was the monthly box service for me. The site is www.kawaiibox.com and the price point is just under $20 a month, with discounts for ordering more than one month at a time. I received the September box during the first week of October. Inside their were cute and fun goodies.  

I definitely had a smile on face as soon as I opened the box. Lots of colors and a nice variety of kawaii items.  I did think the price point was right on, I could not order this much cute stuff online for this price, in fact I don't think I could but this much cute stuff at my local Japanese market for less than $20. My favorite item was definitely the makeup bag, tho the bending neck bunny pen was pretty awesome.  I think I will continue with this subscription for a while, just receiving it made my day.
