Rockin' Nihon Style~

It's already been a month since I've been here!

Japanese fashion!~
In the past month I've kept my eyes open, checking out what's in style here in Japan this fall.
I got a magazine (SOUP) the other day, which I'm going to go through again on Wednesday, when I actually have TIME (!) It's a really good magazine for me because it's got a few sections on clothes, makeup, food, and music - a real good mix of things & its got LOTS of pictures!

I've also wandered into makeup sections a few times and I came to notice that glitter nailpolishes are VERY popular in Japan, whereas in the US they might be seen as tacky or childish.
Anyways, I decided to go ahead and purchase a polish to experiment with and I love it! <3
The two polishes I'm using right now are OPI "Hearts & Tarts" (purchased in the US) and Revlon's "Blizzard Berry" (purchased in Japan).
The top coat my mom bought for me before I came overseas is called "Seche Vite" and it is AMAZING! Dries REALLY fast and it gives your nailpolish a longlasting shine! <3 It's a bit expensive, but I would say it's worth it ($11).

I'm just about ready to do some REAL shopping here and I can't wait to go to HARAJUKU!
Just finished uploading pictures of my trip to Kamakura onto my computer, so I will post them up online soon (still working on getting that FLICKR account)

Till next time!
