COLU Overalls and KING Blue Lenses

Saturday, January 16th, 2010 | 77 Comments

This weekend has been amazing for package receiving!!!! Thursday and Friday I receive the Cocolulu overalls and belt and the KING Blue circle lenses I ordered! Today I received my Buzz Spunky overalls and the third pair of circle lenses I ordered (MAX pure brown.) :!:

First the CO&LU overalls!
I ordered these using Shopping Mall Japan. I wish I had realized you had to request shipping after your order arrives to them . Could have had these sooner. I ordered my Buzz Spunky overalls through a different service but I’ll talk about that later. These are pink corduroy overalls and nice and warm! *_*

I forgot to take pics of my belt and little shopping bag
I’ll do that for next post!



Clipping from the new February issue of Popteen

I cleaned my closet this week! *feels proud*


KING Blue Lenses
I ordered these intense color blue circle lenses from Meigo Shop. I wanted something intense and have always wanted blue. In the past I tried to get colored contacts in the States but my doctors always said my prescription wasn’t available This was probably over 5 years ago~ But back then I always wanted blue

The KING series are 14.5 in diameter. A very large lens! Most lenses are only 14.0 This is the popular ad for them featuring Sakurina!






I will probably never eat this bag of popcorn because it has Mike’s name on it! Haahaa, my friend should I have sent 2 I guess if she wanted me to actually eat it! LOL No, no~ I’m sure the novelty will wear off eventually and I’ll eat it




Despite having a bigger diameter these lenses are a bit more comfortable than the Geo Angel Edge lenses. I’ve worn them all day. I actually still have them in so it’s been about 10 hours of wear! Of course using a few re-wetting drops here & there~ I really love the intense color. In some pictures you can see my light green natural color peek out from the lens but in person it’s not as noticeable. Intense color borders look really nice on darker eyes but I’m happy with how these look on my green eyes too! I thought the color difference would be more obvious and it would look strange but it’s not. Of course I didn’t get these to look natural in any way, shape, or form!

As for Meigo Shop, the shipping was fairly quick and done via registered mail so you get tracking. They came in 11 days :good: The packaging was a small envelope but they were encased in thick foam which was nice! And of course this shop let’s you order a different prescription for each eye


So today I wore both the overalls & the contacts out & about~
It was a warmer day today! High was about 50F! So I didn’t have to be super bundled. I could wear my Barefoot Dreams parka


When I was cleaning my closet I found this headband. I haven’t gotten to wear it much so I wanted to do that today~ It was a birthday gift from a friend a while ago.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee~~!! :haha:
This is definitely the high point of my New Year’s Resolution! I haven’t even really felt the urge to shop anywhere NEAR as much as I used to! I thought it would be a harder thing to resist. Of course now I’ve received these first orders it might get harder as the weeks pass without new stuff. But I’ll just wait and see~

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 12:48 pm

First I curled it with a small barrel iron then made a small ponytail with just the top of my hair. Then I just twisted & pinned the rest of my hair up by my ponytail. Tease and hairspray

Nice overalls. may i know how you get the ココルルオーバーオール? 
here in singapore, i bet the shipping must be very high!
and i searched rakuten but they dont have it.
im not sure about the procedures and all, hope you can help me!

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 12:51 pm

The service I used, Shopping Mall Japan, states they ship internationally to lots of countries. Maybe check them out! Their link is in my entry

ヴァちゃん said
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 7:40 am

yup, thats what i did but its so confusing, could you maybe elaborate on how to go about using it? thanks!

jenny said
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 9:31 am

Unfortunately the best directions get emailed to you after you sign up for an account. Then you’ll send them “deposit” money via paypal or credit card. When that’s accepted you can fill out a form stating what you want ordered. They contact you to verify. Check your account status to see when it reaches their office. Once it does you click the button requesting shipping to you!

(Comments wont nest below this level)

is it easy to do??

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 12:53 pm

REALLY easy. The longest part is curling it first. Then you just need a ton of bobby pins to pin them up!

Meeeh I’m so stupid, the comment is cut. . Sorry for the double comment. . :’(
So, I was wondering, how did you do for your hairstyle on the last pictures, because it looks supercute ! (And sorry again for the double comment !)

jenny said

Don’t worry about the double comment!

The overalls & circle lenses look ADORABLE on you~!! ♥ Your Saturday coordi is too cute!
I’m so sorry I forgot about that sucktastic part about SMJ… I really don’t understand why they make you request shipping to your home, but it IS a pain in the ass :( I’m glad you decided to try out another service for your other order & can’t wait to see the Buzz Spunky salopette~! ^-^y
Thank you for the review on Meigo Shop too ♥ I finally looked into ordering some circle lenses & I was going to order the KING grey ones from pinkyparadise but sadly they didn’t have my ultra-high/bad prescription :( Meigo Shop did though, && they have the KING series so I went with them!
Congrats on succeeding with your resolution so far & you’ll be getting another little package this week, so no worries! ^-~ haha!

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 12:57 pm

Oh that’s OK, I should have seen the “Request Shipping” button earlier! Hahahahaa! Ugh boooo to bad prescriptions! I hate that on Pinky Paradise soooooooo many end at -8.00 or -6.00 *cries* ;_;

WHOOT to more mail! Life’s gonna seem boring now that I haven’t 4 boxes and tracking to follow, hahahaaaa!

those self cam pictures are so cute. lol. I used to wear GEO lenses because it’s cheap, lasts longer anf it’s worth buying. however the lens are sometimes to dry for my eyes and i cant wear them too long or i will feel very uncomfy. the blue looks really cool and I think it kinda suits u (maybe because u have naturally colored eyes) for me, i would prefer colors like grey or brown becuase it looks more natural on asians.. blue and aqua colors are just to fake for people to believe that it’s my natural eye color. hahaha

my wife’s japanese and recently she purchsed some items from an online shop in jp. have you tried this one? http://en.rakuten.co.jp/

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 6:51 pm

Thank you! I haven’t purchased from there but I have browsed before. A friend ordered using their international service and said she wasn’t too happy about shipping cost or shipping time so I’ve yet to order anything from it.

Aw man, now I REALLY want to buy some lenses. I’ve been dying for some black ones. The blue ones look great on you! I’ve never been into overalls (especially when wearing them as a kid) but pink ones are really cute!

 
Syd Syd said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 5:14 pm

The parka & overalls work nicely together

I was wondering where on earth you could wear such contacts! Wearing them out to restaurants and parties is nice, but I couldn’t wear them out at school or work. Too much of a distraction. ^^;

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 6:53 pm

Yea right now I just wear them out and about after work & all day on weekends. I think they’d cause too much comment to wear at work. Though my MAX brown pair might look natural enough to wear to work

The overalls are super cute but WOW you’re eyes look so big and so blue! Are bigger lenses harder to put in?

jenny said
January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 6:55 pm

Well I already wear contacts daily but that said, …yes! Not “hard” but I did have to focus a little more and open my eye a bit wider than usual to get them in, hahahahaa :X

January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 11:10 pm

Wow! I’m surprised how lovely the KING Blue lenses look, but I guess those are the advantages of a larger diameter!

I guess you *can* wear them longer than six hours, right? It’s just not recommended I suppose. ^^;;

January 17, 2010 (4 weeks ago) @ 11:15 pm

Ahh, you make me really want a pair of coloured contacts!

Those overalls are ADORABLE (and/or you just rock them super hard!). The headband is really cute too! I thought it was just a scarf that you tied, but I guess the lace headband is part of it…?

jenny said
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 1:45 pm

Yea it’s a metal headband with lace wrapped around it and a soft bow attached

Wow~!! you look just, I mean just exactly like a model from a J fashion magazine in that first photo~~ ^3^ Those overalls suit you so well, I wish I could rock overalls like that but I’m too hippy and pounchy haha ^^

Oh don’t worry about eating the Mike popcorn, in my opinion it’s not so good tasting so keeping it for the package is a great idea.

jenny said
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 1:44 pm

You’re the second person to tell me that! My friend said he thought the popcorn tasted funny, haahaa!

 
 
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 1:08 am

Wow I don’t know if your eyes are usually so big but wow they look beautiful!!!

jenny said
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 1:43 pm

It’s definitely the circle lenses and false lashes

 
 
Thao said
January 18, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 1:39 am

Gosh, any color lenses seem to complement you nicely!

It’s really nice finding things that you’ve forgotten about when you clean out your closet. Either that or you find things that are embarrassingly ridiculous that you need to get rid of the evidence of having such poor judgement, which happens to be my case far too often.

You look gorgeous with the blue contacts! I visited the Shop Japan Mall and was so confused. lol. I’m gonna have to get my boyfriend to translate for me. Your blog is just too awesome, I discovered Yesstyle from you too! Thank so much!

but what i realllly love is your hair in the last few pics - how did you do it??!!! it looks FANTASTIC. paired with your uber kawaii outfit, everything looks like it just popped out of a magazine!!

jenny said

First I curled it with a small barrel iron then made a small ponytail with just the top of my hair. Then I just twisted & pinned the rest of my hair up by my ponytail. Tease and hairspray it in place!

jenny said
January 19, 2010 (3 weeks ago) @ 11:11 am

They’re actually quite safe if you follow proper instructions. You know, no sleeping in them, rinse and clean them when taking them out AND putting them in, store them properly, and so on. The only damage contacts can do is if you don’t take care of them properly. Just like other daily contacts.
