New Years' Shopping x End of Season Sale

A quick look at what I bought recently.

I love the stuff from Terranova because it fits me just right. Plus, the quality is slightly better than that of H&M's.
(H&M quality has sadly dropped and more so when it started expanding in Asia...They seem to be sourcing their products elsewhere now.)



Bought this because I own matching shorts with the same print! :D
(My first choice was the one in grey but the last of it was XS. I could fit in it if I wanted to, but practically speaking it was just too small.T_T)



And this grey one feels Nordic. And I love Nordic feels. Or is it just me?
What caught my eye were the silver strands entwined in the knit. :3
(It is super subtle and not noticeable in the photo sadly..)



And.. you know how I love grey. XD

Shopping :: Kawaii Haul, Crafts, Etc

On Instagram this week:
[FOLLOW if you haven't already.:3]



I am very bad at crochet but I quite enjoy just looping endlessly and randomly in rounds, and it ended up like this! :3

The adorable cat notepad was thrifted-- boy, do I love warehouse sales! The notebook was the last of it left and cost me about 70yen/0,50eur. Not bad.



And then from Daiso I bought some bento boxes and cute fork & spoon set.



...

I also bought this drinking glass (thought it was nice),



which would be perfect for overnight oats / enjoying my cereal in the morning.



It says 'Not for hot products.'



And the glass is Made in Mexico. Actually the quality isn't so bad.



The mug beside my crochet. I'm actually making more of these to give to my friends.



Crafting is therapeutic, I tell you. Doing these kinds of things after a stressful day is...very relaxing.



And crafting coupled with some Earl Grey just sets the mood. :3

...

My morning coffee in my favourite Little Miss Giggles mug.



Who likes the Mr. Men and Little Miss Series as much as I do?? X3

...

The cute fork and spoon from Daiso before I opened them.



These were the bento boxes from Daiso, really cute with the Matryoshka design.















I'm also super crazy about Rilakkuma since a long time ago (haha).



So, naturally, I'd be super tempted to buy a Rilakkuma product when I see one.



Btw, on the right in the photo above -- is a blue lantern, made with cloth (not paper!), wonderful quality.
(Prior to this, I bought paper ones for 3x the price at Daiso.)

...

Notepads -- really handy for when I travel. I always find physical notes better than having it in my mobile. (Well, considering how many times my memory card failed me. I used 2x Kingston 64GB and wrecked both. Thee was no other brand available so I had no choice. Now I'm using a 32gb TDK and hope it lasts me longer. I have used TDK before and it works just fine.)

Rilakkuma fridge magnet / and works doouble as a hook.



The legs are bendable.



Just how adorable is it!



And the hands too.



It's quite small actually.



These are the uses:

...

Bought some stickers for postcrossing:



...

And jelly cases for my phone... I swear I'm always dropping it. :O (I've never been so clumsy but for some reason I just have terrible grip on this phone....)



funky yellow or mint green one?



I'm using yellow at the moment (for everyday) but I really love the cool mint one (which is why I'm keeping it).

...

Cute Cat Beanie from Terranova

Bought this cute cat beanie from the Terranova Sale a couple of weeks back!



It was super adorable worn, especially with the ears! :D

Shopping :: After-Winter Sale H&M

Bought these super cute mittens at H&M. :3 It was so difficult to pick a decent one because most of them had already been snagged here and there. Sigh. I found a semi-decent pair and bought them.



That. cute. face.



And it fits me perfectly.



Curious question, do you ever remove the tags like these when you buy stuff? I don't. But this was like 9 pages long.



It's only recently (two months ago) that H&M became available in my city. I don't know if these mittens were long available in other countries, I think their goods come from elsewhere in Asia.



Speaking of which (it opening in my city recently), I saw some socks I bought in Vienna in 2013on display-- I got it on sale at only 3eur there, but here it's being marketed as a "new item" at regular price which cost about --converted, approx. in euros-- 8eur. (That's equivalent to two pairs + change)

Well, just saying.

...

Also bought fingerless gloves,





which I never had, until now. (Well, I knitted one back in 2013, which I used when I traveled to Munich. But it was my first mitten project and it did not fit as good as I expected it to)

...And when it gets too cold,

I try not to buy more than I need. BUT... when I see things I like I JUST CAN'T HELP IT. =_="

And I rarely even go out....n_n
