2010: Yukata

January 4, 2010

2010, oh 2010. What do you have for me?

 

Celebrated the new year at home with my family. I was quite cranky to be honest. New year isn’t exactly my favorite holiday (with all the noise, gah!) so to make things a bit better for myself, I (always) celebrate the new year in soft pajamas and a plushie.This year, I added something to my usual pajama garb.

Yay yukata*!

 

I got this one during a short ukay run in Novaliches. My friend Sayou found it with some dresses and handed it to me, saying she doesn’t like pink. YAAAY! Its a bit too small for me, must be a child’s yukata. I can adjust the length when I have the time (the shoulders are perfect though). Also, notice the bunny print. Love!

 

*Yukata - A yukata is a Japanese garment. It is a casual summer kimono usually worn during fireworks displays, festivals, and other summer events. It is also usually seen in traditional Japanese inns as bathwear (yukata literally means ‘bath clothes’). A yukata is usually made of cotton, unlike kimonos that are made of silk. It is worn with a matching sash (on casual occasions) or with an obi(for more formal events). (from Wikipedia)

New Glasses!

 Some of my relatives still included me in their pamasko  list, so I finally got myself a new pair of glasses.

 I broke my black ones last Christmas Toycon. Its about time I get a new one - I usually have my eyes checked every two years (because my glasses usually last me two years). My black ones lasted for two-and-a-half years. Not bad.  I decided to get brown frames to make my face look a bit brighter. But I sticked with plastic frames since they’re durable and makes me look a bit fasyon. 
 
 
 
Teh black frames. I kinda miss them.
 
I got my glasses from Ideal Vision Center at Ever Gotesco Grand Central for Php 1,400 (ordinary lens). It came with a hard eyeglass case in black leatherette.
