My Melody x Maison De FLEUR 2021 review!♡

 Good morning lovelies..!

It's been quite some time since I last posted here, and due to a few changes in my life, it seems like a new post was long overdue. When I previously wrote about Maison De FLEUR's beautiful collaboration with My Melody in 2020, I was so in love with her design that this Melo actually became one of my favourites of my collection...!~♪ 

So, when Maison De FLEUR announced another Sanrio collaboration (with a gingham theme, too!!) it seemed inevitable I'd pick up another Melo charm♡

Left: 2020 My Melo, Right: 2021 My Melo♡ 

The second Sanrio collaboration features a tea party theme, and two different colourways of each character (My Melody's being pink and blue!) ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡

My Melody wears a baby pink gingham dress with sheer ruffles, a Maison De FLEUR ribbon, gold charm and pink x yellow flower crown. Just like last years My Melo, she has delicate pearls on her ears and a gold chain♡

One of my favourite details from last year's Melo was the delicate gold circle charm that she has, so it was wonderful to see how this was a feature on this year's Melo too...!~♪ 

 

Her blushy cheeks are so cute...! I love how vibrant they are, and how well the pink matches her colour scheme; all the pinks are cohesive, but not too similar that it looks repetitive♡

I couldn't resist talking about her beautiful lace-up ribbon details on the back of the dress, too! This gives her such a princess-y look, especially paired with the adorable gingham print, it makes me wish there was a matching dress so we can twin with My Melo!~ ꒰✩’o`ૢ✩꒱

The adorable baby pink gingham print is also featured on the torso of the charm...! I adore how fluffy her tail is too, although its a shame that you can't see it over the dress.

She also has adorable toe beans, just like last year's charm!~♪  This is such a cute detail, I wish more Melo plushies would give her them...! 

Along with this sweet My Melo, I decided to feature a couple other cuties from my recent Sanrio shop haul...♡

Although I haven't talked about her much on this blog, Mewkledreamy is one of my other favourite Sanrio characters, as her dreamy and pastel theme is too adorable...! I picked up this little charm to match the talking plush of Mewkle and Nene-chan~♪ 
Perhaps I should write about her sometime soon?

And I couldn't resist this fairy theme My Melo charm..! She is absolutely perfect with her pastel rainbow of flowers, and wings..!! Maison De FLEUR's newest Melo also has a similar flower crown design, so I thought they could match ꒰⑅ˊ͈ ˙̫ ˋ͈⑅꒱

And a little comparison of this sweet Melo with different charms/plush..!♡ She is the exact same height as last year's Melo, and therefore quite a bit bigger than most My Melody charms on the market. This also means that matching accessories such as this 'Happy Rainy Days' carry case sadly will not work with her.

Thank you so much for reading, I hope that this post was as fun to read as it was to write!~♪
If you are also interested in purchasing a Maison De FLEUR My Melo charm, I recommend using the site 'Buyee' (if you don't already live in Japan, that is!) to access Google Japan, or other secondhand marketplaces like Mercari or Rakuten.
Lots of love,
♡ Evie xox ♡

                                                         

♡ My Melody x Maison De FLEUR 2020 review ♡

♡ Hello lovelies! ♡

Despite recent events, I wanted to share a little post about the lovely My Melo, as I think we can all agree her cuteness brings some happiness~ ꒰✩’o`ૢ✩꒱
A few weeks ago, I decided to use yahoo auctions to bid on the keyring from the dreamy Maison De FLEUR x My Melody recent collaboration.

While I initially set out to try and obtain the bag and cosme pouch, their prices were pretty steep, so it seemed better to stick with what I adored the most.~♪

Maison De Fleur are a J-Fashion brand who not only sell gorgeous bags (most notably the soft tote bags with feminine ribbon accents) but also keyrings, makeup pouches, phone cases, and other girly items. I've admired their products for quite some time now, so finally owning something from them is exciting!♡

The first thing that stood out to me is how fluffy she is! the cream coloured fur x baby pink look even softer with this texture ♡

Also, the Maison de FLEUR ribbon and gold details make her look so fancy and fashionable~ (♡ >ω< ♡)

Toe beans!!!~~ This might just be one of my favourite details!~ Most charms don't really pay attention to the small details like this, and they just make her even cuter....(人´∀｀)．☆．。．:*･°

Even though it's simple, her dress has such sweet back details.. the little ribbons, lace up back and a big fluffy tail~♡

Her little ears are also accented with pearls and ribbons, elegant and cute !(･ω<)☆

Here's a little size comparison of her to a few other melodies! Next to the Lizmelo charm, she's significantly bigger. Behind her is a medium size plush, and on the back right is an older LizMelo bag/big phone case, which she is a little smaller than. ♡

Overall, I think it's pretty clear how cute she is (o’∪`o)ノ―♪`*.+ Maison De FLEUR and Sanrio did an excellent job with this collaboration, the quality is so good and all of the details are perfect.

I hope this was as enjoyable to read as it was to write!♡
If you're interested in purchasing her, I recommend using the company 'buyee' to access yahoo.jp if you don't live in Japan! It's the best service I've used so far~ ꒰✩’ω`ૢ✩꒱

Please stay safe lovelies,

♡ Liz Lisa x My Melody 2019 | Unboxing & Review ♡

Hello everyone!~♡
Since it's release, I've been so excited to share photos of my gorgeous new LizMelo pieces..♪
Like last year, I decided to purchase the My Melo keyring again, but instead of the dress I actually decided on the handbag...! (ꈍ ᴗ ꈍ✿)

2019 My Melo next to last years Melo... do you know who's the new girl?~

Upon opening my parcel, everything was very well packaged as usual, and also as usual, Liz Lisa sent me a little shopping bag with purchases from the online store..♪

I love collecting these shopping bags♡

♡ Lizmelo 2019 ribbon detail handbag ♡

My first impressions on this bag are, it's so spacious and pretty!♪♡

I was a little worried about being able to fit notebooks (I like to sketch sometimes when out) but it's easy to carry this and even more, so this wasn't a problem 

(´• ᴗ •̥`✿)

So pretty and pink...

The bag looks lovely in both warm and cool toned areas~♬ This shade of pale pink also works beautifully with the warmer roses and ribbons, and the peach toned details on My Melo's dress

I changed the lighting a little to show this on the back of the bag...♪♡

 I'm obsessed with the little Melo's climbing the ribbon and the feminine roses on the bottom. Also the heart details on the handle... too adorable!♪(´ ᴗ｀✿)

Sweet Scallop details...

The lace up ribbon details and 'L' lettering on the hearts, so pretty~♪♡´･ᴗ･`♡

I was also happy to see that the bag was beautifully lined with many pockets to put my things!♪
As well as the pocket on the bags outside, there is a heart shaped zipper on the inside and two mini pockets that fit a phone, mirror, cushion, etc~(๑°꒵°๑)･*♡

Such a pretty pink on the inside and out♡♡♡

The main zip has a heart detail! adorable..♪♡

The handbag also comes with an adjustable strap so you can wear it a little longer too!~

I really love how it looks as a shoulder bag with this, as it's more versatile.. 

It's also small enough to fold and place in the bag easily~

♡ LizMelo 2019 My Melody Keyring ♡

I'm so in love with this little My Melo! Her blushing expression with the wink was just too cute to pass up, and I love how dainty and feminine she looks with the big ribbon detail~

Her dress features this years print, which has gorgeous blooming roses and soft my melo~

Such a sweet, romantic expression!

 Just like last years, My Melo also wears a flower crown, however she has no crystals on it, and her blush is natural style~ the colours are also less vivid and the material used to make her more soft, so I'd say this is more of a natural style Melo ♡

Back details~ 

The charm also features an additional 'Liz Lisa' logo pale pink heart, and a lot of keyring holders so you can keep her safely on your bag! I especially like that Liz Lisa included that this year, as it gives you a lot more peace of mind knowing My Melo won't fall off~(ꈍ ᴗ ꈍ✿)

The 2 pieces I got combined! I'm so in love..

Just like last year, I really do love the collection~
However, this years print was a little too repetitive for me to justify getting the dress, but I am enjoying pairing the bag with my other LizMelo pieces, as they all match so well!

As always, thank you for reading, I hope you're also excited for my next Liz Lisa blog..!♡

Pripara microphone, cyalume tact & accessories review! ♡♪

If you're a fan of idols or cute Shōjo anime, you may be familiar with the anime series and game, Idol time Pripara!♡ Despite the anime being around for a fairly long amount of time, only recently I actually watched it~ I really loved the cute and colourful story, characters and fashion, and would recommend it if you love those sorts of things ♡ Ami ami currently have a sale up to 70% off Pripara merch, so check them out! ~ http://www.amiami.com/

The pripara merchandise is not only compatible with each other, but the cards, gems and microphone can be used in the Japanese arcade game version! If you live/are able to travel to japan then this is a fun feature to be able to use ^^

♡So with that out of the way, lets start the review!♡

---------------------------------------------   ♡  ---------------------------------------------

Starting off with the microphone itself! The gems pictured here are the 3 you receive in the microphone set, whereas the big shiny heart that attached the 3rd gem to the microphone is part of the extra accessories add on! The microphone lights up and plays a variety of different voice lines, as well as being compatible with all heart gems~

The heart's can be placed under the ribbon (as shown here) to be used in the arcade game!

You also receive this card with the microphone! It's the dress from a cute blue coord~ Even if you don't play the game, these cards are still super cute ^^

Also something to mention is that the mini snap-off cards have bio's of the characters!

Compatible with the microphone and tact is the extra accessories set!~ Here lies the secret to customising your mic and making it super 'dreamy cute' ^o^

No matter what your style is, the mic and tact can coord with you!

Firstly, included in this set is the sparkly bow variation (instead of the pastel pink one the mic comes with), and a gothic (holic trick?) variation, as well as this adorable rainbowy blue one!~ These just look so cute and mean no matter what your style is, the mic and tact can coord with you!

Each card has a clothing item (dress, footwear, hair accessory) that all work together~

Abouve are the cards you receive in the accessory pack~ while honestly. I'm not too much of a fan of this coord overall, its still nice to see different characters shown other than Laala, even if she is super cute! ヽ( ´ ∇ ｀ )ノ

And lastly, the cyalume tact! here's a little close up of the back of the box, its so cute omg ♡

The front of the box is shaped like a giant ribbon! it's so cute >-<

Here are the cards with the full coord you get in this set! This has to be my favourite one, its so pretty omg ヽ(〃＾▽＾〃)ﾉ The back of these cards are super sparkly too!!

This set is super celestial, my fav ^^

So heres a picture of the tact in action! without the mic, you have the option of...

♡Your Jewel type

♡ Voice lines from the characters

♡ Sounds when you move the tact

♡ and when you flip the ribbon and add the microphone, you activate kami idol mode & they light up in sync rainbow colours, with the option of all the main songs to sing to ♡

To be honest this thing is really heavy... ! ಠ益ಠ

The whole tact's appearance! how cute is it?!

A closeup of some of the gems and mic! 

So that was my review of the Idol time pripara tact/microphone/some of the extra thingys! ^^ Although I don't really collect magical girl wands, this will look cute with the ones that I do have, and mainly I will use for my Laala cosplay, when I get round to it!

as always, thank you for reading~

My June favourites 2017! ♡♪

I'm back with a new post about my June favourites/purchases that I wanted to share! These are all things I have especially been happy about buying and consider worth the money ♪(‘εﾟ人)*.+

Starting off with the character themed items, I got this adorable Miss Bunny plush! I've wanted to get this since early last year when I saw it in store, but I couldn't decide if I wanted Miss Bunny or Thumper. However when I visited the store last week I decided that Miss Bunny was too cute to leave there! The plushies at the store are really soft and well made ~

I then found something super cute, this care bears scented key ring! these can be bought from gacha machines and are way too cute, mine is raspberry & rainbow themed (ó㉨ò)ﾉ♡

I love how cute the little butt - heart is! I'm hoping I can get a few more of these, id love the strawberry one, but they're all so sweet ♪

Next up is clothing! I absolutely love this pastel pink gingham shirt from asos- not sponsored (but imagine if I was... lol!) and this is perfect with jeans, fitted skirts and shorts! I really like this 'cold shoulder' style (I think it is called that.. (〃ω〃) ✿) and pink is my favourite colour so this will probably be worn a lot in the foreseeable future!

I also found these super cheap slippers from Primark, only £6 and they are so soft! The characters are of course Mrs Potts and Chip from 'Beauty and the Beast'! Not only would I recommend the movie, but also these slippers as they are soooo comfy! 10/10 (♥ó㉨ò)ﾉ♡

Next we move on to the food highlights of this month! -♪ I have been a little more unhealthy than usual as my exams just finished. . I celebrate with delicious sweets lol! (๑◕ܫ￩๑)

First, this ~decidant~ chocolate brownie from Pizza Express! It is topped with a vanilla ice cream, strawberry slice and mint leaf!~ How wonderful (*´∀`*) 3/5!

Next is this lovely raspberry macaron from Paul, which I rate a 4/5! So delicious and surprisingly light? Defo recommend this ♡

Next up isn't exactly all food, but its a bear bank that contains puddings! ♡ I got this from a Japanese/Chinese food-selling supermarket here in the UK, I love it so much because I actually keep my savings in here, and theres a lot of room lol!

The puddings are mango with small chunks of coconut, delicious! I rate them 5/5 as they are super tasty and refreshing ^^

Moving on to makeup, I got this cute pastel pink liner from NYX cosmetics! I already wrote reviews for these products on my makeup blog so I won't go into too much detail but the pink colour is lovely & its very affordable, so I do recommend!

And I also got this lipstick for only £2 (on sale!) at the body shop! This is a rosey pink and looks super pink and bright in person, plus as its reduced from £8 couldn't be better! (*￣∇￣*)

And lastly I got this super cute lip and cheek stain! It's very bright but I really like it, and again I got this reduced from the body shop, I'd recommend this too ♡

So that's it for my June favourites post! For July's hauls I will probably be featuring more stationary so stay tuned for that, and if you're interested in seeing what I do with the makeup products please do check my makeup amino account in the description of my blog!
