Monday Music Spotlight - Fireworks



Hello Everyone,
I hope you are having a wonderful start to your week! This week my music spotlight is Katy Perry's Firework. I'll be honest some of her songs don't really appeal to me but I do love this song. It is very uplifting. By being who we are, we can shine so bright! I try to be true to myself as often as possible and on the days I truly do, are the days I am truly happy.
Another reason I love this song is well....fireworks. They are one my favorite things ever! It may be because they make me think of Disney but that's ok.
So on with the song..."Baby your a firework, come one let your colors burst!"

Sorta Monday Music Spotlight-Howl

So I was planing on every Monday posting something with music. Either a song that really hits me, or an artist I love. Having this done by Monday did not happen but better late then never. On with the music!

Florence + the Machine is my new love! Her voice is so hauntingly beautiful. One of my favorite songs is Howl. The song really describes it's self. Here Florence performing the song and the lyrics with pictures I feel fit the song. 



If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free


Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart
Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart

My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to howl
My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in

You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to

Howl, howl
Howl, howl

Now there's no holding back, I'm making to attack
My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out

The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground

Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins
I want to find you, tear out all of your tenderness

And howl, howl
Howl, howl


Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters
Hunters, hunters, hunters
Hunters, hunters, hunters

The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress
Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground

And howl


Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters


A man who's pure of heart and says his prayers by night
May still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright

If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground

KittyDragon on my Dress

Last week I made two orders and both of them came in today! First was from Straypa World. This is the second order from there, the first was for Christmas presents and this one for myself. With getting the iphone I couldn't find any cases that I really loved but Straypa had so many cute ones to choose from!

My case is in purple! I kinda also wanted pink but I had to chose! I got some new matching head phones as well and Pocky chopsticks!

Next order was Tokyo Rebel! I don't know if you saw their latest Putumayo shipment, but I got to order most of it. I did go a little crazy.  I really do suggest Tokyo Rebel for shopping. Some of the things that were in the video that they hadn't put on their website, when I e-mailed them they put them up that day so that I could order them. They also put my order together very quickly and cut my shipping cost. They have great customer service.





My thank you card(I loves those) and my free Putumayo post card

Putumayo bags, not as fun as I wish but funky

I told you I went over broad(7 items)

Ribbon Cat outfit with Mirror cat Cutsew

Cat print one-piece, it's got a KittyDragon on it, and cat socks

Chiffon Dress

Tote bag
After super cleaning my apartment I went to meet my mother for dinner. I had to wear one of my new outfits! It was really nice out so I went with the Cat Print one-piece.

One of the things I love about this outfit is it's really comfortable. Unlike a lot of Lolita I feel like I could wear this all day and doing most activities.
With my new case and headphones

Weee

I got a bunch for new stuff and can't wait to show you all it!!!!!!! Keep a look out

New Banners and Finished Project

As you can all see I have a wonderful new banner!! Thank you to Tiffany who made it for me! She also made me these two to choose from.
I love them all and want to use them all at some point. I may change them depending on my mood. Tiffany is so awesome, she not only does great job with photoshop she is also a great artist. 
You can find this and more on her DeviantArt account.

I also took the time to add some more stuff to my blog as well *points right*  You guys can check out some of my favorite blog I read.


And I have finally finished a cross stitch project. This one I am planing to give my mother. I hope to find a nice frame to put it in and give it to her for Easter. Now I have to spend some time on James large cross stitch project....I'll finish it someday.

Monday Music- Princess Playlist



Music is a daily inspiration for everyone. We love to dance around to that club song when we are in a good mood and cry in our bed to that song that breaks your heart. I have found that I like to create different play list that reflect my mood so am going to share them with you. To start with I chose my Princess Playlist these are the songs I love to listen too when I feel like I am a beautiful Lolita Princess.


Walking on Air by Kerli
   -Yes I posted this song in my last post but I absolutely love it! I feel like I am a magical fairy when I sing it

Set Apart this Dream by Flyleaf
  - This song is filled with innocence.

Love Story by Taylor Swift
  - This may be corny but come one it's what ever princess dreams of.

Brick by Boring Brick by Paramore
