Where to buy lolita bags

Hello everyone~
I think some of you knew that I really love lolita~ and these days, I really wanted to own another lolita bag.
Why? 
Because actually I only have 2 lolita bags and sometimes I find difficulties to coordinate my lolita dress with the bag.

Finally,
I wanted to buy a lolita bags from taobao and there's a GOOD NEWS :)

For you who lives in Indonesia, I will help you to get the lolita bags from the store which I wanted to buy. 
So, my intention to help you is just to spread lolita culture in Indonesia <3 Because I will be very happy to meet new lolita friends, since the lolita girl population in Indonesia is very few TTwTT

However, I will only limit the types of bag, just to avoid the seller send me the wrong items. Moreover, all price will be in Indonesia Rupiah, just to make everyone easier~
The price includes local shipping in China and Indonesia, shipping from China to Indo, and agent's fee.
All price will be stated below each photos.
Anyway, currency in yuan strengthened and the cost for shipping is very expensive. Therefore, the price still not cheap when buying it from Indonesia TTwTT


First model~


Price: IDR 320.000



Second type~


Price: IDR 274.000



Third model~


Color available: red, black, white, pink, light blue, mint blue
(please open the link to see the product of each color)

Price: 272.000


If you want to order the bags together with me, just send message to my email: rika.nathania@gmail.com

I will close the order on 4 July. 
*Fyi, on 25-30 June I will have a retreat so forgive me my response are slow, because I'm only allowed to use handphone on break time.

The items will arrived to me at approximately 3 weeks. After that, I will notify to those who buy the bag(s) :)


Hopefully this will be helpful :)
Don't miss this chance while I'm still kind *just kidding* LOL xD

why someone should be grateful

Actually, this post is not related to beauty or fashion. To be honest, I need to think almost twice to post this. However, I just thought that after reading this post you can found a new motivation.
Basically, it will be about my experiences. If you suddenly get bored when seeing my long writing, just close it, but I recommend you to keep reading. 
Why? 
You will never knew if you have a similar experience with me and maybe you will be grateful for it.


These days, so many things happen to me. Most of them are bad things. I don't know why, but it seems all of my hard works never turn out good..

First,
The IELTS test. I need to take this test as a requirement to enter my university.
I've done my best to study hard EVERYDAY, even I need to ask for approval to my school for not attending the activities after my final exam finished and use that time to take an IELTS course.
When I took the test, I'm 100% sure that I will be passed, because the test was easier than what I thought.
The results? I was failed. My overall score is 6.0, but the writing is 5.5
I only need to get 0.5 more and it made me dfdsfsdfsdfslgjskdjgksjdkgjsldgkj. *Super bad mood*

Second,
This past, actually I'm not 100% that I'll passed :P However, I want to try it, at least I will get some experience.
I don't know if actually I need to share these things :X However, yea I decided to tell it..
I join 2 auditions which held by MMK (moe moe kyun maid cafe) and angels. If you haven't know about MMK, it's actually a maid cafe that usually opens at AFA (anime festival asia). Just google it if you still don't have ideas xD LOL.


The second one, which is angels.. Actually it's an audition for cosplayer in my country, that later after some people are selected, they will be a team to do some cosplay together. So, basically they will do a freelance job as cosplayer in some events.  What I thought, someday Indonesia will known as country that has friendly and talented cosplayers because of this team. lol~
Finally.... I don't called for interview at MMK but get called for angels. hahaha.
At the end, after I've quarrel a little with my mom to join this things, I still didn't pass.
To be honest, I feel down when seeing the announcement, because I think there's still a hope that I will pass this time.

Third,
I've prepared many properties for my piano concert on the 15 June. The time management for making these things are not good. So, we (the committee) need to make everything in less than 1 month. Of course, almost everyday I feel super tired and almost get sick TTwTT
When the day come, I can't play well. There's a part where I stopped for 2-5 seconds and so many wrong notes! Erghh,, so sorry to Chopin for not playing your song well >w<





So, what's the point of telling those stories? Am I only complaining and get angry with it?
Absolutely not.


I never regret those things to happen. If I got the chance to go back and fix many things, I won't do it. Because, if I didn't experience it, I will never be better.

If I didn't failed on the previous IELTS test, I won't achieve a better score. Right now my overall score is 6.5 with 6.0 on writing, 7.5 on listening, 6.5 at reading, and 6.0 on speaking.  Moreover, I won't rely on God when waiting for the score. The 2nd test were harder, so I didn't think that I would pass. However, I believe God can do a miracle for me.
Other than that, I also made my parents proud because I was called to stand in the stage for getting 100 on English national exam and pass the ielts test with a good score.

If i didn't try my luck for joining the MMK and angels audition, I won't know the feeling when I got rejected and needs to improve in many things. Also, I also learn a lot that even though physical appearance is important, but socializing with others are more important. When people find something special from me, it means that I'm succeed.

If I didn't being a part as a committee, I will never experience on how to create an event and how to make it successful. Furthermore, I learned  a lot to make various things. Right now, I'm really good at using glue gun and wires :P (I rarely use them before. LOL xP)


There's still many things I should be grateful, but it will be too long if I list one by one. hahaha xD


If you feel really down and think you're not good, list down things that you feel happy in your life. For me it's really effective, because there won't be any people in this world who never feel happiness.
Every little things give a big impact.

So, I list 1 or 2 things that I'm happy everyday. If there aren't any, I'll just write a motivational quotes that I found on that day :P 


Hopefully this will motivates you to reach goals and be better.
Don't forget to believe in God on everything, but you needs to work hard too~ hahaha xD

Remember, 
be grateful for everything <3

SG haul + tutorial survey


Hi everyone <3
If you notice, I rarely post anything for the previous week. My life got super busy due to my piano concert which held on 15 June.
As a part of the committee, I need to make bunch of properties and attend some meeting :(

However, today I'm back to my routine as a blogger xD So, this will be a super late post after my first post of May haul. LOL.

***

I went to Singapore at the end of May with my grandma and mom. Also, we only spent 2 days there! LOL. But, I could still bought some items and I'm really happy about it~ hehe xD
When I flashback that time, I went to many places to get these items. The great thing is I don't get tired! *The power of shopping* LOL xD

However, I'm a little bit sad because I can't come to Funan Anime Matsuri. I really want to meet Kaname and the other guest star. Moreover, I want to visit the Maid&Butler Cafe too TT___TT
But that's fine, I just need to wait for AFA :3


So, what did I buy?

<3 A pink shoes. Bought from Vincci store




(Please pardon my big legs TT___TT)



<3 Rohto Cube eye drop and Hello Kitty Hand Sanitizer from Watson.
(will review the Rohto eye drop soon~ )

<3 Fabrics. There are so many cute fabrics in Singapore, but the price is a little bit pricey :P At least, the quality is really good!~ Bought from a store in People Park.




Last picture~
A photo of me after doing the piano concert. My face looks so freakin' asdjfkajskdfj :X




Anyway, I wanted to ask 1 question for all of you~ hehe.
In your opinion, should I make a video tutorial or tutorial in pictures?
Because I'm thinking to make another tutorial x)


Thanks a lot for your comments. I'm really happy to hear your opinion xD

[Ecotools] 5 piece Mineral Brush Set

Hi everyone x3
I'm so sorry that I rarely update my reviews :X
However, today I'm back to review another product which is produced by Ecotools.








Specially designed as a friendly set brush. Let's take a look closer to the information which are written on the back part.




At first, I'm really confuse why this set is called 5 piece brush set, but I can only notice that there are only 4 brush on the website's picture.
Until it arrived, finally I know the remaining one is the cosmetic case. hahahaha xD


I love the design of this brush, it's simple and the color is nice. Also, the size is rather petite, so it's really convenient to use it as travel brushes.



From left to right =
eye shadow brush - concealer brush - Powder Brush - Baby Kabuki brush


Eventhough it is stated powder brush in the catalog, but sometimes I like to use it as blush brush. I will take fewer time when applying blusher to the apple of my cheek :D



The cosmetic case is not really useful after all, because I rarely put my brush in this case. However, at least I can put another makeup in here, so it's not a waste~



The good side for this brush that it is so soft. I'm so happy to play with the brush sometimes, because it's fluffy <3 LOL

Moreover, I have use this brush for around 4 months and I found nothing bad about this product.
So, I definitely recommend you to buy this set if you are searching for make up brush :D



What's your favorite brushes anyway? 
Share your opinion here~ hehe.


Thanks for reading,
have a good day :)

May Haul

Hello everyone! ~

Since the new month has started, so I'm going to show you what I buy in May <3
However, this Haul will be divided into 2 parts~

Why?
Because I bought many things :X 



The first part is taobao section :D

Actually, I ordered it on the end of April, but there was some problem in China so it took longer time until the items were finally arrived.




If you notice, I buy so many socks. Yeah, I need to admit it that I bought too many :X 
*just realized it now* LOL.

However, how can I refuse not to buy these socks, they are too cute :(

Some of the socks have the same style, only the color is different~


















If you notice, the brands of this socks are Caramella and Tutuana. Did you know them ?
They are SUPER popular in Japan~
*Fyi, this socks is not originally from Japan xD It's only a replica produced by taobao. They are much cheaper compared to original one. That's why, I decided to buy! xDD


I really want to show how it looks when I wear it, but things are so hectic these days :( 
Next time, I surely will take a picture of the socks when I wear it~ 


Last, here's my new wig which was bought from Lucaille x3


This time, I chose a gradient wig. The color is so soft <3 <3
Will review it later! :D


I got so many cute things in this month. Maybe I should start to save money next month >w<
Anyway, I think I'm going to sell some of those socks, but only for people who lives in Indonesia only. Sorry for the others :X
