CO*DE Planning: 2010 Summer Trends Lookbook

I was sitting on my terrace having breakfast and I was reading as always but at some point I finally got struck by inspiration from this month’s EGG issue XD so I decided to make a small summer look book with inspo from 2010 July EGG issue! Maybe I’ll do a part 2 with August trends but we’ll see xD it's mostly for me so I can quickly choose what to wear in the morning but I thought it could be inspo for somebody else

anyway, I hope it's interesting XD 

 

1. Usamimi

The first article on this issue is about usamimi/ribbon accessories! EGG models worn them combined, which I didn't like to be honest XD but I used the usamimi trends combined to the maxi dress trend (you can see it in the Street Snaps and Model Choice articles) 

My usamimis are both from Magical Harts! 

 

Dress: DreamV - Vest, acce: thrifted

 Dress: Roxy - Crop Top: Terranova - Necklace: Tralala - Acce: thrifted 

 

Bikini: Roxy - Shirt: H&M - Blue bangle: CO&LU - All the rest is thrifted w

 

2. Denim

Another recurred trend is denim! Denim bottoms and shirts (for layering) are extremely trendy this season! My fav bottoms are this layered skirt and the tutu one, they work greatly for amekaji and himekaji :D the layered one is from Baby Angel (Fiorucci side brand), the tutu sadly doesn't have any brand tag ;;  

Shirt: Terranova - Tshirt: GILFY - Bag: Roxy - Bangle: COLU, thrifted - Necklace: Alba Rosa

Shirt: Terranova - Top: COLU - Acce: Tralala, COLU, Barbie Bag from Claire's

Top: Liz Lisa - Hat: bought used from Georgiepiyo - Belt: thrifted - Bag: LizMelo

3. Parka

This one is about short-sleeved hoodies! I admit, they're a really cute summer item <3 especially paired with bikinis! 

In the next 2 outfits you can see a combo of other trends, like denim and the next trend, overalls! 

Hoodie: JSG - Visor, bag, bikini: Roxy - Belt, bangle: COLU - Necklace: Tralala - Capri pants: Rosebud

Hoodie: JSG - Bikini, overall: thrifted - Belt, bangles: COLU - Necklace: Tralala - Bag, visor: Roxy

 

4. Overall 

 One last trend from this issue are overalls! Long, short, especially in denim but also in other colours and fabrics! (see also the last fit from the previous trend)

 

Overall, bracelets: thrifted - Bag, hat: Roxy - Pink bangle: COLU - Top: Rote Rosa

Crop top: Terranova - Tank top: Skinny Lip - Overall, white bangle: thrifted - Pink bangle: COLU - Bag: Claire's - Necklace: Tralala

Overall, acce: thrifted - Belt: d.i.a - Bag: Chanel - Pink bangle: COLU

5. Capri pants

This one isn't a trend from EGG but a personal boom XD I LOVE capri pants! Especially in denim, they're so versatile and perfect for summer!! They work for EVERY single substyle!

 

Himekaji! Top, bag: Liz Lisa - Pants: Rosebud - Acce: thrifted, handmade necklace

Onee! Top: INGNI - Pants: Rosebud - Bag: LizMelo - Acce: thrifted

Agejo! Top: Moon Flower - Belt: MA*RS - Pants: Rosebud - Bag: Chanel - Acce: thrifted, handmade

Another agejo idea with a shorter top to expose your belly :P anddd you can tie the headscarf in a ribbon to follow the Usamimi/Kuma trend!

Top, headband: SheIn - Pants: Rosebud - Belt: MA*RS - Necklace: local store 

 Tsuyome! Top: d.i.a - Belt: Aliexpress - Pants: Rosebud - Cardigan: H&M - Acce: local store, thrifted

6. Cowgirl/hobo color combo

Another summer boom of mine XD white is my main summer colour, and the combo white x brown x denim is just my fav color combo in summer! Look how versatile it is:

 

Top, belt, acce: thrifted - Bag: d.i.a - Miniskirt: Miss Swan

Top, belt, acce: thrifted - Bag: Liz Lisa - Miniskirt: Miss Swan

 

Just change the accessories and it's a totally different outfit! I'm gonna wear this a lot w 

Extra:

Royal blue is another boom I have but I don't have a lot of items in that colour ;; gonna use this dress a lot w

Shirt: d.i.a - Dress: Jackie - Bracelet: Studio Alta - Necklaces: handmade, Chrome Hearts 

 Dress: Jackie - Hat, bracelets: thrifted - Necklace: Chrome Hearts - Capri leggings: Terranova

 

And some fits I planned for an event I'm gonna attend with Simo at the end of this month:

Top: Galeo - Sunglasses: Rady - Bag: Chanel - Miniskirt: Miss Swan - Acce: thrifted - Belt: Aliexpress

Top: SheIn - Bag, shorts, belt: d.i.a - Acce: thrifted, local store

And the fit I've worn Saturday at the festival, but with a different bag w XD

That's all for now! Which outfit do you like the most? Did you like the trends from the July issue? Lmk!

Since I'm already blogging, I'll show you my fit from today

 

Dress: Deary/DreamV - Vest: Mim - Shoes: Salt'n'Pepper - Bag: Barbie (Zuiki) - Acce: thrifted

And the one from yesterday

Top: Delyle Noir - Shorts: Tiffoni - Bag: Chanel - Sandals, earrings, bracelet: thrifted - Cardigan: H&M - Necklace: Fossil - Watch: MA*RS

I was wearing my new Wet'n'Wild lip mousse and I have to say it's growing on me

I've worn the same bracelet&watch both days w

 Tomorrow I have a date with Nericchi and Seshi and I don't know what to wearrrr

I'm torn between one of the blue dress outfit and my tartan MA*RS setup

Or even amekaji

Why can't I choose XD

Delyle Girl ♥ CO*DE & Beauty Talk

 

I'm updating a lot lately w

I hope I can keep it up even this winter lol

Anyway

I wanted to show you what I've worn today

Skirt: Delyle Noir - Top: Amazon Essentials w - Bag: thrifted and customized with LizLisa replica acce w - Shoes, acce: thrifted - Usamimi: Magical Harts

Following the usamimi trend from the last EGG issue ww

 Another thing I wanted to talk about is this mask:

Do you remember the fruity masks from Pepco? This one is the akai berry one 

the description says "revitalizing sheet mask", and well
it's a friggin botox LMAO
I swear, after using it the fine lines on my forehead pratically DISAPPEARED
Nobody is paying me to say this so trust me when I say I'm gonna go get EVERY single mask left at Pepco this weekend w
I wish I took a before/after pic but I didn't cuz I had no high hopes for those masks XD
I mean I already tried the cocoa one but this is WAY more effective w (or maybe the cocoa mask wasn’t made for my skin type? Dunno)

Obviously it’s not miraculous, my fine lines are still there w but they’re a lot less visible, and that’s enough for me www especially since they costed something like 1€ each  XD

Another thing I'm using is those eyepatches from Essence

They're pratically useless XD I mean the cooling effect works (if you put them in the fridge before using them w) but beside this I didn't see any type of improvement
But maybe my eyebags are too dark to be healed with just eyepatches XD

 

 At least they're cute w

I've also made an order from Pinky Paradise, I got lenses for everyday use and those products:

COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence

it's a serum made with snail slime

I've seen people talk about it online and a lot of people says they got rid of their fine lines with it

So I'm giving it a try (it was also on sale :P)

I also got the matching sheet mask (also on sale w)

 I'll let you know if they works!

Now I have to go to sleep XD 

   

Yours, Natsumin~ 

 

Date w/ Yuriko!💕

This Saturday was a blast

I went to Gallipoli to meet my friend Yuriko who was in Lecce for a big event, the Asian Lover Fest :D 

Actually I was supposed to stay in Lecce too to see the event but for many reasons I couldn't book it TAT So I asked my bff to take me there for a day to see her ;_;

The trip was super long, 2h and half + the car had issues and it took us so LONG to reach Gallipoli, but finally I saw herrr

She's so tiny and super cuteeeee T___T I'm so happy I got to meet her again

We know each other since more than 10 years??? I saw her going through a lot of fashion phases ww while I stayed gal, super boring XD we met in the lolita comm first, then the decora one, then the jpop idol comm and finally in the cosplay comm, a lot XDDD 

Anywayyy we met up with Yuri, her manager Sion and other friends and we went around Gallipoli a bit to show Yuri & Sion the city

And then the beach!

I'm stupid and I forgot my bikini :') at least she had a good time swimming XD but I wish I joined her sob

The beach was amazing ;_; super clean and beautiful

After beach we went around again and had coffee :D this city has a special recipe for their coffee so we made her try it XD 

(Picture by Alina)

If you want to try it at home, it's coffee with ice and almond syrup (I think the right word is barley syrup??? It's a bitter almond based syrup/cordial, usually mixed with water or milk cuz it's kinda bitter by itself - the italian word for it is "sciroppo di orzata")

After coffee they had to get ready for a private Asian Fest party, so I stayed to help Yuri a bit (chatting for hours ofc w) and she invited me to follow her at the party!!

She treated me with champagne TAT!!!!

She had a talk show but she still took time for me to introduce me to Yamato Inoue and Shuzo!! Two super popular jp models for ELLE and Vogue that I really like ;____; I was super excited and embarassed but they were so friendly TAT the best part was that they went "oooo gyaru! sugoiii" when they saw me XDDD I didn't even say I was gal but they recognized me as gal TAT I was so super happyyy ;_; Too bad I don't speak english or japanese in an understandable way TAT I must've looked so stupid ;_; but I was so happy I could melt there right away sob

 

Thank you so much Yuri, you made me live a dream TAT

Sadly we had to go almost right after ;_; but I'm so happy and grateful for this day

I just went to see her as much as I could, and she treated me like a princess ç_ç I don't deserve it, thank you so much Yuri ;_; you're always a cinnamonroll, I hope to see you again soon TAT

 

Before I forget XD here's some outfit picsss

Top: Delyle Noir - Belt: Ma*rs - Necklace: Galeo - Shorts, acce: thrifted

Now I really gotta go XD I'll update soon

 

Yours, Natsumin~
