Lust List: My birthday wishlist!

Hello lovelies! This month I'm doing a special edition of the lust list! I truthfully didn't have enough interesting items for the March fashion lust list that I didn't already buy. If you would like me to do a sort of haul/finds post of the things I got let me know!

My birthday is approaching (April 30), so I thought that it would be interesting to share my most wished for items this year. I truly never expect gifts or ask for them. I truthfully don't really get anything unless either of my best friends (love you guys!! <3) decides to get me something or if I buy it myself. So this post is purely for fun.

I have been asked before to share the link to my Amazon wish list, but I thought it would be pompous of me and that really no one cares. To me, when I see a blogger put a link to their wishlist on their blog, it's like they're saying "Hey buy me shit!" Or expecting something. So unless anyone badly wants mine, I won't post it.

But anyway I thought this would make an interesting post and something different for the lust list. I fully intend to eventually buy everything on this list. Here is my top 10 list of item on my birthday wishlist

1. Roku



I am DYING for a Roku. If I could choose any one thing for my birthday, it would be a Roku. I watch a lot of anime and Kdramas. I can't watch them at my computer, which is laggy when playing videos and it is extremely uncomfortable to watch videos at (I have to use a plastic folding chair as a computer chair.). When I do watch my shows, I watch them on my very old Android tablet (which is slowly dying at time of writing). I currently can only watch things on 2 apps: Crunchyroll and Viki. The browser sucks for playing any videos but youtube. I connect my tablet via HDMI to the TV in my room. But sadly, subtitles will not show from Viki via HDMI and my HDMI cable is slowly dying.

So I really want a Roku. It has all of the channels that I want and has a remote. Fire TV doesn't have every channel that I want and Chromecast doesn't have a remote. I would love a Roku 3 but it is HELLA expensive! I would be just as happy with the HDMI Roku stick.

2. Victorian style porcelain tea cups



I have been wanting a Victorian style tea set for a long time. For Christmas my best friend ( Hi Vicky!!! :D) gave me a beautiful tea pot. I have been getting into fancy loose leaf teas and browsing online for tea cups so my desire for a beautiful tea cup increases. I want something with floral that looks fancy. Also with a matching saucer. I have found a few Royal Albert cups as well as some other brands that I'm in love with. But oh the price tag ;___; . There is also a skull sugar spoon that I would love to go with it. The skull spoon actually matches a tea cup I already own.

3. Lots of figures



I have so many different figures on my wish list. I really want to build my collection. From Funko Pop figures like their horror villains collection and Adventure time to ones from anime. I really want a Kakashi figure, some Sailor Moon ones and a Kirito one.

4. Sailor Moon wig



I've been lusting over Sailor Moon wigs. I want one for my cosplay. There are quite a few options but the already styled versions are too much for me to afford at the moment. Though an already styled wig that is a good quality fibre wig is best, I would be happy with something like a blonde Hatsune Miku wig that I can style

5. Special Effects Makeup supplies



I have so many different products on my list. I want to build up my special effects kit and have new products to work with. I also want to start using better quality products, right now I just use some eyeshadow palettes and Halloween grease paint for coloring. I'm nearly out of liquid latex too and need some that is clear.

6.External battery charger



I go on adventures with my friends a lot and use my phone for various things - music, texting, internet, obsessive list making. Sometimes my battery dies so I keep a car charger with me. I really want to get and have been meaning to get an external battery charger so that I can charge my phone on the go -even when I don't have a power source. I have been eyeing one from Amazon - it's compact, has a good amount of power and a warranty.

7. Skincare products



I have quite a few skincare products on my list. My most wished for ones are Glamglow Thirstymud, Boots Ionic Clay Shine Away Mask and Clinique Clarifying lotion 2. I have a huge love of face masks, especially sheet masks. I always try to keep a good stock of sheet masks, I never ever want to run out.

8. Into The Woods and Annabelle



I do have a lot of DVDs on my list but these 2 are my most wished ones. I absolutely need them in my possession.

9. Shoes and jewelry



I combined these into 1 subject. There are a lot of jewelry items because I fully admit I'm an accessory junkie. But I do wear my jewelry a lot and use different things for different looks. There are quite a few items like these skull earrings and this Nightmare before Christmas cameo that I am wanting (Have I mentioned I'm obsessed with cameos??). This fabulous bat bracelet. Also Neo from twitter (Hi!) showed me these Black Butler earrings from Hot Topic. Needless to say I have to have them.

I also am dying to get my hands on a pair of these black wedge booties.

10. Plushies



I have had quite a few anime plushies on my list for a few years now. I need to own all of my babies in plushie form. My most wished for plushies are Kirito, Asuna, Grell, Levi and Sailor Moon. I also really want an Alucard and Yukio (Ao No Exorcist/Blue Exorcist) plushie but they do not seem to make them ;___;

So those are the top items in my list....out of like 200 or so items .__. (Hehe oops). At least I give options. I honestly wasn't excited or happy at all for my birthday this year. I was going to avoid everything birthday related....but now I'm throwing a (pretty cool if I do say so myself) party...if all works out!! What's pathetic is I haven't gotten a single thing (besides picking a date/ invitations) done on my list of plans...and I'm already planning my outfit!! That's so me.

Anyway thank you everyone for being awesome and reading this as well as putting up with my ramblings!! I normally don't do this, but if you would like to follow any of my social networks visit these links below, some are already listed in the blog side bar:

MG Collection: Nadie Review!

Remember this bag from way back in my January Fashion Lust List post? I got it! I was looking on Amazon for a new bag and came across this brand, MG Collection. I was amazed at their selection and prices. Though I wasn't 100% certain of the quality. As with everything I buy I scoured the internet for reviews. I couldn't find actual pictures of this bag from people that own it anywhere. I found only 1 blog review from this brand...that's it! The reviews on Amazon for other MG Collection bags were mostly good, so I took the plunge. I decided it was my duty to review this bag and let everyone know about the brand.

I took this picture in the snow so that you call could see the sequins better.

The back of the purse. I apologize for the abrupt cropping of this image. As you can see towards the bottom, the image got corrupted and glitchy. I couldn't get a better one with good lighting.
First off: the bag is gorgeous! Even better than the picture on Amazon. The sequins sparkle well. The only issue: I have long hair and two cats. I found that hair got caught between the sequins. Totally fixable though.

I was really impressed with the material! I didn't expect it to feel as sturdy as it did, it literally feels like real leather. I haven't tested the handles for sturdiness much yet, but I would be careful with them just in case. I love that this bag came with an attachable shoulder strap and metal loops for that on the side! It's a great idea especially when I'm shopping and already carrying a bunch of things. The strap is also adjustable.



The zipper feels like it may get caught at some point, but if you treat the bag with care and not whip the zipper open, it should be fine.



The inside of the bag is really roomy and has a bunch of pockets which surprised me!



 Being OCD with keeping things organized in my bag I LOVE pockets! There is of course the large roomy area. 2 side pockets for a phone or ipod. Then 2 zippered pockets, one being attached to another pocket. There are also 2 very small pockets on each side of the bag where the strap attaches.

I am very impressed with this bag! It was a steal for the price, it looks expensive but isn't. I recommend trying an MG Collection bag, I have quite a few more on my wishlist myself. They make great quality and really beautiful fashionable bags.

Now, I am trying to figure out what I want to do for some future anime and music posts. I'm not going to bother with a poll, because only 1 person (and you're awesome whoever you are) normally votes in them. So PLEASE comment with any ideas/anything you want to read about that's anime or music related. It takes maybe 1-2 minutes to comment and you can do it anonymously. I have some ideas of my own, but I would really love some feedback as to what you guys want to see!

Xoxo

January Lust List : DVDs

Hi everyone! As you remember (because I wouldn't shut up about it) I had a poll on one of my last posts to help me choose the next topic. Thank you so much to the two people that voted, you're awesome ^_^!! As requested, I am writing today about the 12 (with two bonuses) movies and shows on my wishlist that I am lusting over this month. I say DVD because I'm behind the times and still don't own a Bluray player (I know, so sad ;__;) This is in no particular order.






1. Hellsing Ultimate Vols 9 and 10 Bluray & DVD combo pack
I already own Hellsing Ultimate volumes 1-8, but the price of 9 and 10 has been too steep for me to justify getting just yet. I want this set so much to complete my collection. It had two of the most badass episodes of the series. Note: Amazon has stopped selling this themselves because of an apparent problem with the stock. The price has skyrocketed. I hope it'll be back and cheaper soon!!


2. The Purge 2, Purge: Anarchy
I loved the first Purge movie and I've been dying to see this one. I have heard that it's everything the first movie should have been. It was towards the top of my Christmas list, but I never got it.


3. Annabelle
I am a big fan of the Warrens. I absolutely loved The Conjuring so of course I had to check this out. I actually just watched it last night and I loved it! It wasn't as good as The Conjuring was but pretty damn close! I can't wait until The Conjuring 2 comes out, as of right now it isn't scheduled to be released until next year. 


4. Maleficent
I saw this in the theater and loved it. Maleficent has always been one of my favorite Disney villains. Angelina Jolie was SO fierce and badass in this movie and I love that Disney didn't make it well, a typical Disney movie.






5. Adventure Time season 4
Adventure Time is one of my many favorite shows. I don't own any of the seasons and would actually love to own them all. I chose season 4 for this list because Netflix doesn't have it and it contains of my favorite episodes: Fionna and Cake. I LOVE the Fionna and Cake episodes. I wish Cartoon Network would make us a spinoff or at least give us more than one of their episodes a year.


6. Descendants of Darkness vols 1 and 4
Also known as Yami no Matsuei. It is a lesser known anime series that I discovered while I was in middle school. My best friend and I were obsessed with this show, she owned volume 4 so we would have marathons of both of our collections whenever we had sleepovers. It's about an organization that handles the processing of souls after death. The main character Tsuzuki Asato and then his partner Hisoka Kurosaki are shinigami that work for the judgement division of the organization, having to get the dead people and bring them to trial for judgement of how they lived their lives. Tsuzuki and Hisoka are often mixed up in an investigation of some mystery that they have to solve. The show deals heavily with the occult, my favorite story arc being the Devil's Song episodes. It introduced me to my favorite classical piece, The Devil's Trill by Giuseppe Tartini.

It is gory, creepy and has some yaoi (I LOVE my yaoi!). I own volumes 2 and 3, but not 1 and 4. This  show is out of print and you can only buy the DVDs used now, for years I have been hunting for them and I just recently found them on amazon. I need to complete my collection.


7. Into The Woods
I saw this movie with one of my friends this past week and it was fantastic. I love musicals and of course I was bound to love it since it IS based on a sondheim (the composer to one of my favorite movies, Sweeney Todd) play. Although the plot was rushed (in their defense, they were cramming a possibly 3-4 hour play into a 2 hour movie) it was great and the music was great. Plus it had Meryl Streep. Meryl was fierce. Meryl is queen. Though this is still in theaters, it is up for pre-order and releases in March.


8. The Addams Family (1960s) vol 1.
I love the original black and white Addams Family TV show from the 1960s. Carolyn Jones as Morticia Addams is queen!! It is one of the very few things I can stand in black and white. I would love to own any volume of this show, but volume 1 is what's on my amazon wish list.






9. Chrono Crusade: Complete Series 
This is another beloved anime I discovered in middle school. I was obsessed with this as well. My summary of this may not be so great, as it has been so long since I've been able to watch this show. It is about the Madgalene order, an organization that destroys demons. The main characters are a nun named Rosette Christopher and her sidekick (who happens to be a demon) Chrono. Throughout the series they are hunting for Rosette's missing brother Joshua, fighting demons and discovering dark secrets along the way.

It is a great lesser known series. I normally dislike shows about nuns or anything religious but Rosette is a badass nun! I love the whole demon aspect of the show and how the nuns shoot them like crazy with their guns. I love that Rosette isn't a typical nun. Her and Chrono are like the black sheep.  I definitely recommend checking this out, especially if you liked Trinity Blood.


10. Modern Family: any season!
I love Modern Family! It is one of my favorite shows, I sadly don't own any of it but I want all of it. It is what I like to call one of my happy shows: a show that just comforts me and that I can watch over and over. I watch reruns of the show all the time and have seen some episodes probably 20+ times. I just love it so much!


11. Game of Thrones season 4
Game of Thrones is my favorite show (since True Blood is over and though I love it, went downhill as the seasons went on. The last season was bullshit). I own seasons 1-3 and need to own this one. Plus this season has the purple wedding, which was an oh so beautiful thing. 


12. The Fault In Our Stars
I haven't seen this yet, but I read the book. The book was so fantastic that I read the entire thing in a day. This book made me cry harder than any other book. I really want to see the movie and see how it compares.


Bonuses:





Sailor Moon season 1 part 2
I have this pre-ordered already so it technically can't be part of this list, but I am lusting over it SO much! I already own part 1. Part 2 contains my favorite episode (the episode where Mamoru discovers Usagi is Sailor Moon and Usagi learns she's princess Serenity), I'm really excited to see how it is uncut and with the new dub. It comes out February 10, I should have it in my possession on release day. Just a few more weeks!!! Would anyone like me to review the set when I get it? Or even review set 1? I also can't wait until Sailor Moon R is released, I am DYING to own it uncut. 


Black Butler: Book of Circus
This hasn't even been dubbed or announced in the US yet, so it doesn't truly count. But I loved this series so much! Black Butler is one of my favorites and they really did this justice with the manga. It was one of my favorite manga arcs and it was just great to see animated.



So that's it! Thank you for reading this post, I hope you enjoyed this. Any fans of any of the shows/movies above? If you would like any other lust lists or have any topic suggestions let me know in a comment or you can even tweet me! I should mention that you don't need to make an account to comment and you can do it anonymously. Hope you're all having a lovely evening (or day if you're reading this during the day) <3

January Lust List: Fashion

Hi everyone! I'm back already! I meant to wait until tomorrow to post this, but I'm really getting back into writing. This takes me back to my journalism and writing classes. For those that don't know, I nearly made a career from journalism before I decided I wanted to become a makeup artist.

I don't know how often I will post, I stuck to a very strict schedule with my last blog and it was so tiring after a while. So with this one, I'm just going to post when I can and want to.

Today I am going to talk about 12 fashion items on my wishlist that I am lusting over this month. I have yet to get any of these. Everything unless I post the link for it can be found on Amazon.



                             


1. Lina & Lily Bat Print Infinity scarf
I am a sucker for anything with bats on it, this scarf is no exception. It is so cute!! I was browsing Amazon, as I do a LOT. I was looking across some sort of Korean fashion thing and I found this! It was love at first browse, so onto the top of my wishlist it went. 

2. Banned Bats Attack Handbag
I have been looking at purses lately, as I want something nice and more grown up for when I go out. I LOVE my current bag, but it can be a little bulky sometimes. I am very particular about what I like, as soon as I saw this I fell in love. It is my dream bag. The only problem - the price ;___;. It's bit too expensive for me right now. Most of the things I buy online believe it or not are paid with Amazon gift cards I earn. It sadly would take me way too long to save up for this bag. Oh, well a girl can dream! 

3. Sailor Moon Purple Cat Plush Slipper
I'm a major Sailor Moon fan, I found these while browsing for cute slippers (because it's a travesty for me to own just plain ones). I absolutely HAVE to have these someday. They're so cute AND they actually will fit my big ass feet!! 

4. Sword Art Online Sword Necklace
SAO is one of my favorite animes, this would be perfect to wear with my Kirito and Asuna shirt. This necklace features mini versions if Kirito's swords as well as Asuna's sword. It's really cheap at about $4...but it comes from China.


5. MG Collection Nadie Handbag
Another bag I am dying to have. It's black faux leather and the front is completely covered in beautiful sparkly sequins. It also has studs on it. It has an edgy almost dark look to it, which is part of my style. I am currently attempting to save up for this.

6. Lime Crime Pansy Velvetine
You can find this at  www.LimeCrime.com

Lime Crime is my favorite makeup brand. They are mostly known for their lipsticks (which I LOVE!). Their Velvetines are their matte liquid lipsticks and they're amazing. I own every single one but two..which includes this one. I've been eyeing it for months, but unable to get it. Purple is my favorite color and I can totally rock a purple lip.

7. Red Wedge Pumps
No brand or pair in particular, I just really want a pair of red wedge pumps. I recently (discussed later in this post) got a pair of black wedge heels and I am in love with them. Now I want more!

8. Unicorn Cameo
For a long time now, I've wanted a unicorn cameo necklace. I love cameos with a passion. I've been eyeing this one, though it is just the cameo its self. I need to find the perfect setting for it to make it into a necklace. 




                                    

9. Dulce Calaveritas Flying Bat Bow

I love Etsy so much, I am constantly browsing on there. I came across this shop looking at some creepy and cute hair accessories. I am totally in love with this bat bow! It is the perfect hair accessory to fuel my bat obsession. I could totally rock this. It also looks like it is very good quality. They have some other types of bows as well and a few varieties on the bat bow. 


10. Kawaii Powerup Fairy Kei Inspired Open Star Clip in teal 

Kawaii Powerup is one of my favorite Etsy shops. They sell a variety of jewelry and hair accessories that are really cute. Also all of their items are really affordable with reasonable shipping. I have ordered from them before and their products are amazing quality and the owner is really sweet! Anyway, I have been wanting a star hair clip really badly and I LOVE this one!! 


11. Purple Lace Ruffle Socks

Another random Amazon find. I really wanted some cute, but thin socks to go with my new heels and these are perfect. They're thin vintage style socks with a lace ruffle. They have them in a bunch of colors, but of course I NEED the purple.


12. Lunaricsales Too Hot For Love - Spiked Edition - Silver 

I started following this shop on instagram and fell in love with their necklaces. The owner of the shop makes some really awesome stuff! I have been wanting a spiked heart necklace for a while now, but only recently did I find this. It is perfection.



Now that you've seen this month's fashion lust list, is there anything I was lusting over and received? Oh yes! I got a few items as Christmas gifts (both from others and myself hehe)

                                     Star and moon stainless steel stud earrings




                                         Healing Crystal earring set

I had to take the picture from amazon because these are very hard to photograph.



                 This beautiful crescent moon necklace that I'm obsessed with.




                                     I also got my very first pair of heels!

Collage taken from my instagram
Anyone that knows me knows I don't really do heels. I wear sneakers almost all the time. But I decided that I wanted to start wearing some heels. I found these on amazon and they're the perfect set of beginner heels. Now let's hope I don't fall on my face!! (I'm super clumsy)


Thank you for reading as always, my dears. I hope you enjoyed this post. I'm sorry that it turned out much longer than expected!! For one of my next posts, I'm letting you decide!! So please take the poll! Or leave me a comment. If mobile, you may not be able to see the poll. Thank blogger's stupid mobile layout, sorry!
