Anime Festival Asia! outfit/hair/makeup spam post


This post is dedicated entirely to my incessant need to selca, as well as some AFAX stuff.
AFAX is basically a mega anime bonanza with booths selling merchandise (SO MANY, WTF), cosplay competitions (regional), and guest star appearances. Other features include a Maid cafe (Moe Moe Kyun) and Butler cafe (Atelier Royale), as well as several spaces for art, karaoke, anime dubbing, travel, and japanese culture. I think they've made it an annual event after seeing last year's success, and in comparison (i.e. what i could garner from pictures, since i wasn't there), it seems that this year's was held on a significantly grander scale.

Stumbled over in my trusty wedges at around noon, and yes, that's the minimaos furtail keychain again. I'm so obsessed with that thing it's fluffy, squishy, and i cannot stop touching it.


Autumn colours ahoy! Cause khaki, faded denim, and brown, in the right shades, are an infallible combination.

Here, have a badly taken full body shot.
Cardigan: nicked it off my sister
Top: Uniqlo (i think)
Shorts: Cotton On (For Gyaru on a budget. Also try Bershka, Zara and New look for autumny trends.New Look's cheaper though.)
Furtail: Minimaos
Bag: Longchamp
Shoes: Schu

Pig trotter legs, all my own, the flat hair as well, but no amount of hairspray will make that hair stay up in this humid weather. It just deflates once i step out of the house. OTL

Make-up and hair for the day, can you see it deflating already?  The waves remained, but volume only stuck around for an incredible couple of minutes. Joy and rapture.

Closer look at the eye make-up. After seeing it in some makeup tutorials, i decided to try out the black-eyeliner-in-middle-of-water-line method to see if it'd make my eyes bigger. It's probably cause the line's fading that i can't see much of a difference, but i suppose theoratically it makes sense.

Also, there ought to be a subject "how to glue on false lower lashes" because obviously they were designed for geniuses. Nearly gave myself an aneurysm trying to make them stick and stay.


More gratuitous selca! Sunlight makes everyones skin fair and smooth. CAMWHORE/SELCA IN SUNLIGHT AND STOP BITCHIN ABOUT YOUR COMPLEXIONS. HOHOHO.

ANYWAY, the venue was crowded like nobody's business, and trying to squeeze past the crazed mobs could only be equivalent to attempting to force an egg back up the hen's vent.

Not to mention, due to severe indecision and the sheer number of nendroids (vocaloid Miku, specifically), i not only could not decide on which to buy, but ended up leaving empty handed. GOOD JOB SELF.

It was a toss up between K-On's Azusa, and Tsumugi, if anyone wanted to know. *sob*



There were various anime printed cushions on sale at SGD19 each, and i was under the impression that the stall was selling body cushions, so i intended to head over, purchase a Sebastian (Kuroshitsuji) and SLEEP WITH HIM EVERY NIGHT. HURR. But they were just generic cushions, that were kinda overpriced to boot.

Apparently, all attempts to keep up appearances on this blog have been channeled into the digital removal of eyebags. Subtlety has been thrown into the wind (more like a hurricane).

The Domo-kun in the above picture is totally related. Domo plushies were for sale at the same store, as well as a pile of miscellaneous Domo merchandise. I honestly thing they've capitalized a little too much on it, cause people seem to be losing interest; judging from the piles of Domo things that were sitting around, and the sellers trying to hawk them out at discounted prices.

We basically spent a lot of time walking arond looking for stuff to buy, and bitching at seriously half-assed cosplay. Oh, also complaining about bad singers at the karaoke booth, and looking for Kaname.

I suppose the highlight of this event, for myself at least, would be the Butler cafe. But i'll have to dedicate an entire blogpost to that.


Till next time then~!
