Happy Long Weekend ❣

Hello, everyone!

It's a long weekend here. ♡ I hope you're having a good time with your family.

This week was so busy, but I'm glad everything was going well, alhamdulillah! Now, this long weekend, I think it's good to recharge myself with some cute things. ♡

Saturday, Sunday, and Monday... I think it will be very productive even though I'll do some recharge! Well, I still have some work to do, but I think we can do it in a more balanced way this weekend.* ^ ^ *

By the way, these are my makeup essentials for this long weekend ❣ I wear them quite a lot nowadays. Pinks, my favorite color! Some of them are in rabbit tongue-pink color. It is very popular lately, and very cute. ♡

They are from Amuse, Barenbliss, and m♡petit. I hope I can make time to do some review ❣

I love pink makeups, especially lippies and blushes. They can lift my mood instantly. ♡

Let's love ourself more. ♡

OK then, I'll go back to my other activities now. ~` 3`~

Take care and stay healthy!

Have a wonderful day. ❣

Hi, It Has Been A While! A Self-Reflection ♡

Hello, everyone!

It has been a while. I'm busy with my life and achieving my goals, Alhamdulillah all is amazing by His grace. ♡

My passion for cute things is still the same, but I think sometimes I need to reconnect with myself and my personal passion that makes me happy while still pursuing my goals. ♡

Image

When we connect to ourselves, we can connect more to our dreams and goals.

I think when we are willing to take the time to stay connected to ourselves, our dreams, the magical things within us, and even stay connected to our childhood side and the simple things that make us happy, becoming a "responsible adult" can still be fun. ♡

Image

Sometimes, daily life can feel so hectic and we don't wanna do anything after work, just go to bed and sleep. ( > . < ) I'm so grateful when I still have some energy to do something that makes me happy. I think it's also a "work-life balance" for me. ( ^ - ^ )

Suddenly this simple thing popped into my mind and I decided to write it on this blog. ♡ I even visited my older notes and did some self-reflection. ( ^ ^ )

Well, until next time!

Have a nice day. ♡

Ketika Mengganti Mood Sesederhana Mengganti Warna Lipstick | Mini Review Wardah Colorfit Velvet Matte Lip Mousse 03

Halo!

Apa kabar semuanya? Aku berharap kalian semua juga sehat dan stay safe, ya! ❤

Di hari yang mendung ini, aku terdorong untuk membuat tulisan tentang salah satu terapi ringan yang sering banget aku lakukan untuk memperbaiki mood. Namanya, Terapi Touch Up. 😆

No, mungkin agak kurang tepat. Terapi Makeup.

Ehm, kayaknya masih kurang spesifik. Oke, Terapi Lipstick. 😂

Aku bukan penemu hal ini, kok, mungkin banyak juga yang sudah pernah atau bahkan sering melakukan hal ini. Aku suka makeup, terutama lip makeup (setelah itu cheek makeup, hehehe). Walaupun koleksiku didominasi warna pink, tapi nggak ada warna pink yang sama, sehingga bisa dipilih sesuai tone baju dan mood.

Yes, sesuai dengan mood.

Nah, kali ini yang mau aku review di sini adalah Wardah Colorfit Velvet Matte Lip Mousse. Aku punya beberapa shade, tapi favoritku adalah shade 03 'Rose Ballerina'. Begitu swatches-nya muncul di IG Lippielust, aku langsung tahu shade yang bakal jadi favoritku. 😍 

Foto ini diambil di bulan Januari 2020, sebelum pandemi. Di tengah perjalanan naik kereta api ke kota tempatku bekerja saat itu, aku sengaja touch up pakai Lip Mousse ini. Waktu itu bukan semata pingin dandan, tapi karena memang aku sedang butuh mood-booster. And trust me, touch up using your favorite lippie is very relieving. 😌

Setelah sampai stasiun

Nah, kalau di bawah ini adalah foto pada suatu hari Sabtu di perusahaan tempatku sebelumnya bekerja. Casual vibes, lol. Di bulan-bulan itu, aku sedang membutuhkan banyak energi positif. Pokoknya butuh lebih banyak dari biasanya, wkwkwk.

Dan aku juga apply shade 03 ini.

Warnanya cantik banget. Pink pastel dengan sedikit hint peach, membuat wajah cerah seketika. Bisa dibilang Wardah Velvet Matte Lip Mousse 03 ini adalah lipmatte pertama yang warnanya aku banget. ❤ (mengingat matte lips sudah booming di Indonesia dari kapan tahun wkwkwk)

Formulanya juga nyaman dan lembut, teksturnya mirip 3CE Velvet Lip Tint. Hasil akhirnya velvet, cocok bagi yang suka blurred effect/gradation lips.

Bicara staying power, lip mousse ini relatif tahan lama dan lumayan transferproof, apalagi kalau sudah nge-set. Kalau dipakai untuk makan berat, lip mousse ini akan luntur, tapi cara mqkan dan jenis makanan juga berpengaruh, ya! Dan lunturnya beda ketika lip mousse ini dipakai makan ketika belum nge-set, baru nge-set, dan setelah nge-set lama. 😉

Dan setelah itu, bisa touch up kembali jika dibutuhkan. 💓 Walaupun lip mousse ini tidak terlalu smudgeproof, tapi cukup bisa diandalkan untuk menemani aktivitas di era New Normal. 😷

Dan ini foto terbaru, baru beberapa hari yang lalu, Januari 2021. After work, sepulang dari instansi tempatku bekerja sekarang. Lagi-lagi, aku pakai shade ini untuk jadi support system-ku dalam bekerja, supaya bisa melakukan yang terbaik. ❤

Dan btw, shade 03 Rose Ballerina ini juga salah satu shade favorit Ayana Moon.❤

Nah, poin lain yang mau aku bilang adalah... kadang menerapkan self love dan self compassion bisa sesederhana ini. Cukup pakai warna yang kamu sukai, dan kamu siap menatap dunia. Cukup pakai aitem favoritmu; makeup favorit, baju favorit, aksesoris favorit, atau bahkan mainkan lagu atau musik favoritmu. An instant mood-lifting. 💓

At least, it works for me. It may work for you too! Lagi galau, lagi butuh semangat, motivasi, atau pingin ganti mood 😂 aku kemudian pakai warna lip makeup yang sedang ingin aku pakai, warna pink mewakili mood-ku saat itu, atau warna pink yang mewakili mood yang aku inginkan. It's relieving. ❤

Itu sharing-ku, sih, sambil review, wkwkwk.

Kalian gitu juga, nggak? Ada yang pernah melakukan hal yang sama? 😆

Kalau belum, dicoba ya. Siapa tahu membantu.❤

Refreshing-nya jadi nggak harus keluar rumah, hohoho.

Thanks sudah baca.❤

And have a nice day.❤❤

How To Enjoy A Rainy Day (*^ ^*)

Hello, everyone!

I was scrolling down on my entry list and just found out that I had a draft from November 2017. 😅 So, I got some editing a bit and added a blog graphic (this is my first time doing it in Ichigo Diary, I'm exploring Canva! 😊), and post it. ♡

Before I get into my strict business again (and it means that I'm in my spare time now), I'll try to make more entries to keep this blog alive. 😂

By the way, I'll be talking about the rainy season. ☂

In the rainy days, it can be a struggle to keep us being productive in our activities. Some of you may have no idea what to do because your agenda for going somewhere outside with your friends or family is canceled because of the rainfall. When you felt so enthusiastic about the event, it's not the best feeling ever to get it canceled. (._.)

So, I think it's better to enjoy the moment. (^_^)

But what can we do to enjoy the moment, especially when you're home alone in your house or your room? It may get boring.

For me, enjoying the moment means to be here and now, enjoy the moment, and enjoy the ride! Even when things seem to go wrong or don't match your expectation, let's try to embrace what still we have. Make it the most of it and being appreciative. :)

Because we're talking about enjoying the rainy day, let me share you some ideas. :3

1. Get some warm or hot food with sauce
The "sauce" refers to "Kuah" in Bahasa. 😋
Well, I know that it's back on your taste, some of you like food with sauce and some don't. I personally prefer the foods with sauce when it comes to what to eat on a rainy day. xD
You can have soups that warm your body and your heart, just like love. If it's not possible for you to cook it or get it ready by yourself, you can order them.

2. A Cup of Hot Chocolate Will Be Lovely
Or a cup of good coffee.
Or a cup of tea.
All is good, as long as it's hot. Why? Because you will eat some hot foods, so you want to have some hot drinks too. Pairing the hot foods with the cold drinks is not good, especially for your teeth. Remember how a glass can break when we pour something hot after something cold or reverse? Nah.

But after all, can you imagine your hands grabbing a cup of hot chocolate (or tea, or coffee, whatever you prefer), while you're staring at the window, looking at the rain falls? It cannot feel less than good, right? :)

And those drinks smell so good and relaxing tho.

3. Movie Marathon
Got some DVD? Or an internet connection? Play some movies and enjoy your time! Rewatch your favorite ones can't be boring, as long as they're your favorites. Or go checking if you have some playlist unwatched.

With the internet connection, you can go streaming and watch them online. Or you can visit Youtube, where you can find anything to watch and listen to, from music, movies, dramas, to makeup tutorials.

Oh, and some snacks will be good as your companion.

4. Take A Nap
Feeling happy because finally, you've got a free-time and relaxing day? Or, do you simply feel like want to do nothing but a reward to yourself for all those hard-working time? Just simply turn off the light, take your blanket on, and enjoy your quality nap-time. The symphony of the rainy day outside, the comfort air, and the relaxing smell of wet soils feel amazing.

5. Put On Your Single Item of Favourite Makeup And/Or Skincare
What? Put on a single favorite makeup? Yes! (^_^) But for makeup, you may want something with toned-down colors. For me, it can be my favorite peach-pink nude colors or a delicious lip balm. Also a delicate hand cream and a relaxing perfume or fragranced mist. Or you can simply wear and put any color or any skincare that makes you feel good to enjoy your time. After that, you can do point 1-3 and your rainy day is perfect. (^_^) And after all, when the rain stops, it's possible that the canceled planning because of the rain will go on again. So, it's better to prepare your best. :D

6. Have A Good Time with Your Pet :D

I have an orange cat that now become our family. His name is Charles, and he is so cute, adorable, funny, affectionate, lovable, everything! We're really happy to have him, alhamdulillah. :D When the rain is pouring, I talk to him. I even sing for him, lol. Well, not only on the rainy days, actually. XD It's a fun thing to release the stress, plus your pet is happy too. ♡

7. Have Some Good Books

A good book really can worth the time, trust me. Turn on your music playlist (oh, the sound of rain can be a relaxing backsound too), having a nice cup of coffee or choco, with your cat or dog is sleeping around, and you're ready to get on your adventure.

The list goes on and on, because there are a lot of fun things to do to enjoy the rainy season. So, if you have some ideas, feel free to put them into the comment box! I'll add more too when I get some insights. ♡

Have a good day, everyone.

3CE Velvet Lip Tint Mini Review! Drizzle Love & Enjoy Love ❤

 Salaam!

So, finally today I post about another 3CE lip tint. It's 3CE Velvet Lip Tint. ♡ This range has the widest color palette, so you can find at least one color that suits your complexion, mood, or personality. I got them in Drizzle Love and Enjoy Love. ♡

Such a cute description ♡

See the original pictures here

Drizzle Love is an adorable daily pink that really caught my attention. On the 3CE official website, the color looks like a neutral MLBB pink, but the real swatch on me is different (I have to say!). Drizzle Love came as soft mauve pink with a hint of cool undertone. The color looks mature yet cute at the same time!

Update: The color looks different when I apply some bb/foundie cushion as a base on my lips. It looks more like MLBB pink that appears on the website. ❤

This is my swatch without applying a base on my lips. I'll update you the "using lip base" version swatch once I have some proper photos to share, lol. ^^

Still love it, though! ❤

I love the way it sounds! ♡

Original pictures are from 3CE Official Website

I love bright pink color with neutral or warm undertone, it usually brightens up my complexion and the color looks cute. So, I was wondering about this one, would it be bluish bright pink on me, neon, or simply cute bright pink, lol. But, the pink color looks so cute! I've been always thinking of this shade, so I decided to order it. 😆

It's such a lovely bright pink color! ♡

Enjoy Love is a yellow based-pink that looks lovely, cheerful, and it looks bright but natural. This is my pick-me-up-shade. ♡

About the texture, Enjoy Love tends to become patchy easier than Drizzle Love. I'm not sure, is it because the difference of formulation, since Drizzle Love is on their latest collection of Velvet Lip Tint? Or, it can be also because Enjoy Love has a lighter color than Drizzle Love. It's a common thing in a lip product: the formulation of the lighter color is more difficult than the deeper ones.

But, when I tap my finger on my lips, the patches disapear, so I'm okay with that! (^ - ^)

The Velvet Lip Tint also has a smooth sensation without heavy feeling and it feels comfortable on my lips. ♡

I'm still exploring these liptints on me, so if there's something new observed, I'll got you updated. ♡

The pictures are taken from 3CE official website. By the way, I ordered them from their Shopee Official Store. ♡

(Update: when I tap my finger on my lips, the upper color layer transfers to my finger, and the appearance of lip tint becomes velvet and blurry! It leaves a bit different color than when I first apply it, but still very lovely! This applies to both Drizzle Love and Enjoy Love, so, I think that's the characteristic of 3CE Velvet Lip Tint ^^)

Salaam and Good Days!

My Pink Autumn Cloud Color ❤ 3CE Cloud Lip Tint in Cutesicle Mini Review

Salaam everyone!

Cutesicle, such a cute name for a lip tint shade! ❤ So, I scrolled down on 3CE official website and this cute color caught my attention. It's so lovely, right? 

Picture is taken from 3CE Official Webiste

Cutesicle is described as "a light pink with warm undertones." I was so thrilled about that because it's more often that when it comes to a light pink color, it's usually cool-toned. And when it comes to cool-toned light pink, it will appear greyish, purple-ish, white-ish, or something ashy that washes out my complexion. But a light pink color with warm undertones? I should give it a try! ♡

The swatch on Park Sora (the face of 3CE) kinda doubts me, through. The pink color looks so light on her (and so good!), would it suit my skin tone? On the other side, I saw a lot of good review about this shade on 3CE official website. The reviews say that the color is so cute and it doesn't look pale on them, and the texture is amazing. Alright! I said bismillah and I ordered it from 3CE official Shopee account. xD

I ordered the 3CE Cloud Lip Tint in Cutesicle together with a shade of their legendary Velvet Lip Tint in Drizzle Love, but I'll talk about this one on another post, insyaAllah! The Cloud Lip Tint itself was launched in Autumn 2019.

So, the tints were coming. Really anticipated them! And when I tried the Cutesicle shade, I was like... "Oh, this is my shade."

Did I mention about the elegant packaging? ♡

Well, I know, my best shade so far is coral pink, but this shade... surprisingly, it suits my complexion! It gives a soft, understated, yet cute vibe. It's like my default style and personality in a lip tint! That's how I love this color! ♡

Cutesicle appears as a peach-pink shade with a yellow-beige undertone when it's firstly swatched. But as time goes by, it turns to be a soft, warm light pink as the description. Even when I don't put on any makeup and just wearing this lip tint, I still look adorable (please forgive my wordings xD).

Now, about the texture.

Picture is taken from 3CE Official Website

The texture is so interesting! As the name, Cloud Lip Tint, the texture is like a "cloud", it feels soft, fluffy, and blurry. The texture makes a gradient technique become easier! And the staying power is amazing. If some lip tints lose their "upper color layer" after a couple of hours and turn into a stain, this Cloud Lip Tint stays true on the performance as it's freshly applied, except if you have a heavy meal.

It does transfer, but just a little and not too much. After heavy meals, it leaves a lovely pink stain on my lips. Does the lip tint dry out my lips? Nope. Literally, nope at all, I'm serious. It sits on your lips with a fluffy feeling.♡

About the price, it's in the middle-range, I think. It's still affordable anyway and with such good quality, the price is reasonable. You can check them out in their official Shopee store or on their official website!

Hope your autumn is fluffy, sweet, and beautiful. ❤

Fairies ♡

Salaam!

Lately I've been in love with this cute items, inspired by the fairies. ♡

The first thing is this lip tint. I found it in a cosmetic store when I was accompaniying my friend, such a treasure!



It's called Peripera Airy Ink Velvet in 05 "Elf's Light Rose." The color is neutral pastel pink, a pinkish MLBB color. ^_^



And the second one is this fragrance. ♡



Elvie eau de toilette from Oriflame. ♡ It smells beautiful! The scent is light and watery fresh, but also soft in the same time. It will bring out your mood without too overwhelming. ^_^

By the way, I love imagining some magical stories. ♡ And having these items make me excited even more! ^_^

May Allah bless your day. ♡

Happy New Year 2019! Let's Plan and Journaling ☆

Salaam there!

First off, I wanna wish you a Happy New Year 2019, may all our hopes and prayers come true! Let's make this year become the year of realization! ^_^

If you're like most people, you may have some new year resolutions. Well, so do I, and one of my resolutions is to be more productive. Prayer, study, work, and doing other activities in between, I need to balance them out very nicely. And, not to mention, I still need a me-time with my hobbies and the cute things that I love! ^^

Sometimes, it's hard and overwhelming when we get to do a lot of things in the different subject. Sometimes we may even can't decide which one the priority is. In the other time, it's suggested to write down our targets, dreams, and schedules. That's where a planner and journal can be your support system!

I'm looking for a new journal and planner for this year, and alhamdulillah, luckily, I found this. ^-^

1. Wardah Inspiring Beauty Journal 2019

the design is so beautiful!

It's actually a bonus that you'll get when you purchase a certain amount of nominals, then you'll get this journal! For some of you who don't familiar with this brand, Wardah is a local cosmetic brand from Indonesia that brings out the Halal concept. The journal comes with flower illustration and some photos of the brand ambassadors. One of them is Ayana Moon with the Everyday Cheek & Lip Tint she endorses, and I guess that's the main reason I decided to get this journal! xD

so lovely! With Ayana's recommended product ^^

Quick Review:

I got the code 01 "Red, Set, Glow!" and 03 "Pink on Point." Both are so pretty with a semi-glossy finish! Code 01 is a beautiful red with a little hint of orange and 03 is a fresh light pink. They're great as a lip tint and so cute as a blush. The texture and smells are wonderful too. ^_^

This journal comes in full-color pages from January to December. It has many interesting contents, for example, some activities that allow you to do a self-reflection. It also has the calendar content, monthly planner, and blank pages that you can use for journaling or write down any ideas that pop out in your mind! All are decorated with pastel colors and flowers, with a different color for each month. There are also different product recommendations featured in each month, adjusted to the theme of the month. For the Muslim sisters, this journal event has a content related to Ramadhan and Eid ul Fitr as well! ^^ Although I believe that everyone can use this journal and make the best of it too. ^^

Some pages from the month of March (Maret in Bahasa)

This Wardah Inspiring Beauty Journal is beautiful, the concept and the mission behind it to bring out our natural beauty from the inside is great. It will be a great journal to accompany your days! But, I'm not sure if I would recommend it as a diary because I think this journal is too eye-catching for people to look out and read what's inside. xD

2. Journal and Planner Ideas from Pinterest

I got these ideas from Pinterest! Well, actually a long time ago I was really into bullet-journaling, crafty arts, and illustrating. When I look at these ideas, I think it's a wake-up call for me to spice up my daily life with a touch of cutesy-artistic. ^-^ It's actually only some of them that I put here, you can find more inspirations on Pinterest. ^^

It looks so fun, isn't? ^_^

Well, I hope I can start a better habit as soon as possible, insyaAllah. Let's make this year better, happier, and brighter! And magical. ^-^

Thank you!

And salaam. ^^

A New Look (^ - ^)

Salaam everyone!

Alhamdulillah, I'm so happy! Finally, Ichigo Diary got a new header. 😄(^_^)
It has been a long time ago since I had thought about some cute refreshment of my blog. xD

Hello there! Thank you, I forever love you♡

I've looked for some themes, but I don't find one that suits my style, sorry! (>_<)
I've thought about changing the header too, actually changing the header can be a simple refreshment with great impact, right? ♡

And yes, it's true! I found this cute print from Baby, The Stars Shine Bright. It's called "The Pop Up Labyrinth" series. As you can see, it has the print of Sleeping Beauty story, so cute and beautiful. ♡

I pick this print as my header because it looks so classically beautiful yet magical, as same as the fairytale itself. I think it represents a beautiful wish that somehow everything's gonna be fine, even though it doesn't seem so right now. A happy ending is real, as real as your beautiful dream about it. That's why I put a new description of this blog, "Sweet Dream, Sweet Life," because I believe in that. (^_^)

And look at the book written "Sleeping Beauty" on it! I think the book is very suitable with the image and concept of a "diary". ♡◇♤♧

With the beautiful Sleeping Beauty, pink colors, castle, and roses, it's so lovable, isn't it? (^_^)
Well, maybe the picture is less Ichigo (strawberry) than before, but the concept of strawberry cuteness and sweetness will be here and stay! So, don't worry. ♡

I hope you enjoy this refreshment look as much as I do. (^_^)

Thank you for supporting us, and please keep doing so! ♡

Sweet dream & sweet life, everyone!

P.S. I got this new header from Pinterest, so thank you!
If you read this blog in the mobile version, you can turn it into desktop version to see how it looks. (^_^)

Bussy Days ☆

Salaam everyone!

How's life? It's been forever since my last post! 😀

Sakina is doing many things right now! I continue my study (and actually it's a half done now, so please pray for me!), I apply for the job, doing my business, and make more friends. 😊

Do you think that doing some different things at the same time burn you out?

They're actually the kinds of things you love and you enjoy, but somehow it feels (at least a bit) overwhelming.

Source Image 1

Is it just me? 😅😆

One day, I decided to take a rest for a few days, just for calming my mind and re-direct my energy. But then, I enjoyed it a bit too much. 🐣
While at another time, I felt so exhausted.

Did it happen to you too? 😂

Well, I guess I didn't put my priority right, nor I didn't do well-balanced time management.

Or, maybe I put stressors in my mind too much. That's why things don't succeed with the best result. Do you sometimes have a moment when you don't do your to-do-list properly? 😅😂

Source Picture 2

Is there a time when you procrastinate a lot? When it happens, it's necessary to analyze why that happens. Is it because you don't enjoy what you do?
Is it because there's a challenge you avoid? Is it because of your comfort zone, and you're refusing to step out of it?

Is it because you are lack of motivation? Do you need some role models and support system?
Or is it because you are in "Gudetama" mode on? 😁😂

Any question pops out when you analyze it, it's important to really put your attention on them because they will lead you to the solutions that you may need if you're trapped in this situation. When you find the answer, I think that's the moment we can make our healthy balance in doing anything in our life. It can be jobs, school, family time, pet time, and of course a me-time for ourselves.

A healthy balance is something we always need to have so we can do everything, even the multitasks, much better. 😊

I'm trying to balance mine in healthy portion too! So, I guess I also need to ask those questions above to myself, lol.

And when the challenges come, it's important to stay calm and not put too much stress about it. At least, just make it an eustress and not a distress. 😊

Btw, from now on I'll try to do my best to post more continuously. (^_^)

Have a great day! ♡

Rainy Fall Season ( ^ ^ )

Hi there, everyone!

So, I guess it's more than a year since my last post, right? I hope all of you are doing well! (^_^)

Well, so...
I don't actually know what I'm gonna talk about in this post, lol. xD
It's just because I'm in my free time now, and I miss writing stuff in my dearest blog so much. (*^-^*)

But I don't have any topics or materials to write right now!

So, I guess I just wanna wish you a happy life and good luck. (^ ^)

Oh, by the way, it is the month of autumn, right? In the country I live, we don't have four seasons, so some of us haven't seen autumn in real life!

autumn1

When we're talking about autumn, I bet most of us think about those dark colored-trees with golden leaves. Sometimes the wind blows them, and they fall to make a golden carpet. Or, even it's not only golden leaves but also red, yellow, dark green, and brown. All of them are beautiful!

autumn2

I live in the country wherein this month, the rain falls almost every day, in the afternoon or in the evening. Sometimes it comes as a soft showering, and sometimes it rains hard! The wind blows so strong and you cannot go anywhere but stay in the room. xD

image

Somehow it's beautiful, right?
When the sun shines again and it finally appears from the clouds, you'll find it feels nice, right? :)
It doesn't feel so hot like usual, there's a bit of cool air in the scene. The smell of the wet soil is also nice. :)

images01

Anyway, I hope it's okay for talking about the weathers. xD

Well, actually I'm a rain girl. :)
Especially, for a kind of rain that subtle and softly showering, when you'll think about grabbing a cup of hot chocolate, some warm food, and have a good stay watching TV or reading some books, or just doing your calming, indoor hobbies!

images02

images03

Have you heard the song by Kanon Wakeshima, Skip Turn Step?
It's not her new song, but actually, this song is one of my favorites! The song is about dancing in the rain. The lyrics, instruments, and the arrangements are also classically beautiful. :)

Although I'm saying that I'm a rain girl, I don't hesitate to go out and have fun under the sun! :D

We understand that a rainy season doesn't feel fine for some people, for example for people who prefer a non-rainy day because of their job. Well, it can be frustrating, though.

But let's hope and wish for the best in the rainy season, just as with the sunny days! Whatever it may happen, let's do our best. :)

By the way, what about pink autumn? ( * ^ - ^ *)
It's Ichigo Diary, anyway! (lol) xD

pink autumn1

The pink-red leaves with pink buildings architecture, it's so lovely and romantic, isn't it? :)
And look at the beautiful swans!

pink autumn2

So that is our talk today! (^_^)

Hope you have a wonderful day. :D

How to Manage A Lolita Closet ♡

Hello, everyone!

For a long time I've actually loved seeing many cute things and designs, and because Lolita (for some people) is not only a fashion, it means that everyone actually can live it to the heart as a lifestyle! 

I'm sure that some of you are a beginner Lolita (like me), or cute things-lover that have a passion for kawaii things. For a beginner Lolita, managing a starter closet can gain a lot of effort, even for a non-Lolita! As a Lolita tends to search some inspirations from the Lolita senoritas, looking for ideas about how to manage our closet sounds good. 

For a starter guide, I've got you some inspirations from Google and make some conclusions, lol. xD

Here are some observations I've got, I'd start it from a room of a real Lolita, Misako Aoki. These are some captures of her room, but you can see a part of her closet as well. She changes the layout of her room several times, regularly I guess, but these pictures show us how Misako-chan manages her closet. 

Misako-chan prefers to hang up her lolita dresses because with this way she can keep her dresses sleek and well-organized. 

The other photos are picked up randomly by me from Google. These rooms and the closets are belong to cute girls out there. Prepare your eyes to look at more cuteness of pink closets! 

The key is, make everything visible! It's useful to help you choose and decide your coordinate better, so your overall fashion will be well coordinated. You can match your dress or jumper skirt with the matching socks, bag, wrist cuffs, and other accessories easily.  

You don't even need a very big space to manage a Lolita closet like those pictures above! You can maximize your space to keep your Lolita fashion stuff, included the accessories. Can you see how Misako-chan use her window to put her accessories on? It's useful as cute decoration too!  

Hang up your clothes is a bright idea to solve any problem of closet space. From those pictures I've found, these cute girls hang up their clothes. You can do it too.  

But can we apply that to a basic, non-Lolita clothes?

Of course, we can! Managing your closet is not that difficult, and yes, I'm talking about maximalize the small space too! Find out how to easily do it here, it's a guide for everyone:

You can find a lot of fun ideas here. (^ ^)
