PARIS KIDS 福袋 [fukubukuro] !!



Of all the presents I brought back from Japan, this is probably the one I was waiting to give the most, especially because it was still a mystery to even me.

As you all may or might not know by now, one of my favorite sports in Tokyo was Harajuku (原宿)especially Takeshita St. (竹下鶏). PARIS KID'S - which I was mentioned before in an older post was one of my favorite accessory shops and always made it a point to stop in whenever I went to Harajuku. So of course, on my last run through Takeshita St. before the end of my program I stopped in and bought a few things (haul vid/pics coming soon!) Although this isn't a true "fukubukuro" because I didn't actually buy it during the New Year season, I'd consider it one because well, it's close enough, right?





My friend @tigresaa was nice enough to let me photograph her "fukubukuro"/grab bag presents, and so I want to share them with you!
Scrunchie? Hair-ties? Are those necklaces? :)

3 necklaces, 1 scrunchie, 2 black polkadotted hairties, 1 black lacy hair ornament (?), plastic bracelets (purple, silver, white) and a crazy basket-of-flowers ケタイ(cellphone) charm.

Rosaries were actually a pretty popular accessory in Japan when I was there, so I wasn't too surprised to see this in there- It's a really cute pink bead rosary. // The middle necklace is @tigresaa's favorite! Three different metal rings on a silver chain (bronze, cold, copper?) Says she rocks it all the time! :) // The third necklace is double layered, a bit more on the fancier side. Definitely something you can add to a work outfit. It's brown and I know she loves to wear that color, WIN!

Overall, this "fukubukuro" was a success, and I wish I had bought more to give away, or even gotten one for myself.
Well my [Tenoli] readers, I'll end it with this...

Hasta la proxima!
La Tenoli :)

おさしぶりーーーー!

Long time no see.
New video will be coming up soon.
For now I wanted to show you guys what I was wearing on Sunday when I went to hang out with
my friends. - Went to Lalaport in Minami-Funabashi (JR Keiyo / Musashino Line) to see 2012!

Bought this sweater in a store on Takeshita Dori last week. (Harajuku is really one of my fav. places in Tokyo)
The store's called "Good Day House". ¥1500
I love teddy bears! ~ :3 so this was a must buy!


These are the earrings I was rocking with my brand new sweater. These are also brand new. They're from this store called "Paris Kid's" right on Takeshita Dori. It's in front of the JR Harajuku Station on your left hand side.
You really should stop in there, I'm sure you'll find something and you can't beat ¥315 / item.


And for those of you who didn't get a chance to see my winter themed nails - Here's what they look like right now.
It's getting pretty hectic and I'm not sure how many more posts I can put up before I'm out of here. Lots of papers, presentations, and events to go to in the next 3 weeks.
I wish I could have more hours in the day
