Tea Time in Santana Row

Last weekend I attended a tea party at Lisa's Tea Treasures in Santana Row followed by window shopping along the strip and at the Westfield Mall.  This was probably one of the more enjoyable meet-ups I have been to.  I met numerous fun and exciting girls and was able to meet up with a few that I already knew and really like.  In addition, it was a reason to take a day off work. \(^o^)/

I wore my new BTSSB Twinkle Constellation and the Stars of Confeito JSK.  I coordinated it with the matching OTKs and navy star bows from Angelic Pretty.  One of my favorite accessories is the necklace- it's a spoon with silicone frosting, bunnies and cute stuff in the spoon.  My sister is wearing an Angelic Pretty replica from Kidsyoyo (polka dot bunny JSK).

We started out at the tea house.  Almost everyone was late (although I was early for once ^^;).  It was my first time having tea at Lisa's Tea Treasures, although I've been in the gift shop lots of times.  The girl on my left, Paisley, was lively and read our tea leaves.  Unfortunately, I didn't get too many pictures at the tea house.

Afterwards, we lingered around Santana Row for a period of time.  We took pictures at the larger than life chessboard.

I love the coordinate of the girl next to me! Milky Planet! <3

We stopped at Maido (Japanese paper store) where I found a Nyanpaia keychain!  I couldn't decide between the cat with bat wings or bat with cat ears, so I got one for my sister and one for me. ^^

Finally, we went in search of the Betsy Johnson store at the mall, but it's already closed. (T_T)  We ended up shopping at Lush, where the shopkeepers were excited about our dresses and took lots of pictures.  

Lush sells glittery lotions bars that can be rubbed directly onto the skin.  It's not visible in the picture, but my sister's cheeks are covered!

Twinsies!

Twinkle Constellation and the Stars of Confeito

I received the new Twinkle Constellation and the Stars of Confeito JSK in the mail this week!  It was my first time reserving directly on the Japanese website.  I was surprised to find that the English directions on the BTSSB website didn't explain everything clearly and there were a few boxes I only knew how to fill out because I read Japanese.  I made the reservation just after midnight, since I waited too long for the last dress I wanted and it sold out! (T_T)

After much debate, I decided to order the JSK in navy and the head bow in pink (at my hubby's suggestion).  The navy is perfect because it looks like stars in the night sky, but I really like pink and wanted to bring it out as much as possible.  To offset the overwhelming pink in the head bow (which has no navy at all), I bought a pair of the Dreamy Star Ribbon combs from Angelic Pretty in navy.

Not all of the Twinkle Constellation accessories have become available yet.  I ordered the navy socks (which haven't shipped yet), but missed out on the pink ones...  Also, the San Francisco store hasn't received their shipment yet.  Finally, I fell in love with the new Dreamy Unicorn Bag from AP.  The JSK has various constellations in the pattern, including pegasus.  I know that pegasus and unicorns aren't the same thing, but it's close enough. ^^

I put together a quick coordinate for some photos in the garden.

Love the unicorn purse... <3
