Posted on March 23, 2013 by fluffyghost| 1 Comment

Hey,

As Im a little out of touch with the current lingo I need to get myself back up to date with the current trends of Japan.

Don’t get me wrong I know about the latest fashion, games and anime. But just maybe have been watching a little bit to much anime?? (If there is such a thing!)

Meaning I’ve hidden myself away from the world pretty much 90% of the time. Kinda been getting my Otaku on… However I shall be doing some anime reviews soon as I have TONS to share and talk about.

Anyway I thought I would just share some photos I’ve taken lately in no
specific order:

 

From my Hello Kitty neon and heart glitter lamp, to Korilakkuma & Rilakkuma plush pillows and just random crap in my draw at work.
Just the essentials you know it!

I look forward to hearing and connecting back with you kawaii lovers!
So please come say hi, come say anything lol…

See you soon,

Happy 2013!

Posted on January 2, 2013 by fluffyghost| 2 Comments

Happy 2013 everyone! May you have a very prosperous new year in all your future adventures.

I’ve been thinking about what I would like to do for some of my new year resolutions… One of them being that I would like to get back into being a serious blogger once more. As I have settled into my new life style I believe that I can handle running Fluffyghost with ease. But this time more for pleasure and hobby then a chore.

That means lots of personal posts again, as I have tons of photos just waiting to be upload here! 

So Christmas was fantastic, lots of friends, family and of course kawaii. Heres a sneak peak of a few of my decorations and lovely gifts I was lucky to receive:

San-x, Sanrio, anime, games, Lolita and a traditional Japanese leather school bag make me a very happy bunny indeed! I’ve been eyeing up that bag like a perv for  such a long time too & now it is mine muahahaha! >:D

It was  also great to be able to enjoy all the festive activities on the run up to Christmas too with the people I love. 

Anway hoo’s Happy New Year everyone! Lets welcome it all in together.

Back From The Dead!

Posted on October 6, 2012 by fluffyghost| Leave a comment

Hello all!

This must be the longest record broken for not posting, however after a near fatal brush with zombie syndrome I am back from the dead!

I am very happy to say that whilst away a lot has happened, I landed my dream job and I am now currently working as basically a graphics designer/trainee programmer. So I hope to be able to bring my new skill set over to here at FluffyGhost and well just make this website much more awesome of course!

So be warned I might make some crazy changes along the line as I shall be using FluffyGhost as my training ground. 

I am definitely looking forward to being able to write this website from scratch.

Anyway so Im back just in time for my favourite months too:

(Halloween image via: Black Coffee.)

Autumn I find has so much to offer… From the beautiful scenery, those sunny days where the air is cold and crisp, crunchy leaves, blankets and jumpers, hot drinks tasting a million times better and of course…HALLOWEEN!!!

I really could list all day why I love Autumn so much but I shall save that for another rainy day.

After a very productive week at my new job a well deserved rest is only to be expected. As the famous saying goes;

“Time you enjoy wasting is not time wasted.” & I could not agree more!

So my weekend supplies consist of:

Halloween decorations, (Yes they were most necessary! Mr H looked at me funny haha.) sweets, sweets and more sweets! S’mores ingredients and comics!

I’ve wanted to try s’mores for a very long time, you Americans make them look irresistible. I do though have different crackers compared to the square ones, I am however English so you’ll have to forgive me as I just could not for the love of god find t

(Hello Kitty zombie Via: Wanabeanarchist DeviantART.)

So you know what I will be doing, as well as watching ALOT of zombie based movies and series. Its zombie fever at my house currently, if were not playing the new Resident evil 6 were watching something vaguely similar along those lines.

Anyone else caught the Halloween horror bug? Would love to hear from you all.

Take care,

Sanrio Store Heaven!

Posted on September 3, 2012 by fluffyghost| 5 Comments

Hey all!

It’s been a busy couple of weeks…Summer is finally coming to an end and my favourite seasons are approaching. I can not wait!

Anyway last weekend me my partner Mr H & our friend took a trip to Germany for the day. (It really was a long day trip.) Me and my partner had never been on a plane before so it was great to finally lose my plane virginity at the age of 20!

It wasn’t that scary, I would like to blame Hollywood for making me think so…No snakes either.

So we went to a place called Wunderland its the worlds biggest Hornby exhibit what was outstanding! The detail was crazy.

But the reason why I’m posting about this today is that I went to my first ever Sanrio store! Sanrio merchandise is sold pretty much everywhere these days if you keep an eye open for it. I’ve been collecting Hello Kitty for way over a decade now…So finally being able to visit the home of Sanrio was an utter dream come true. (There sadly isn’t any Sanrio stores here in the UK, which is very weird considering Hello Kitty was mean’t to have been born in “London.”)

Don’t get me wrong I was knackered looked a bit of a mess but it was so worth it!

(The sunglasses were still on to hide my tired looking eyes, I had been up since 3 in the morning and running on about 3 hours sleep all day haha. No regrets!)

I almost had a heart attack in the door way I swear! Boy I’ve never been quite at home as I was here. Mr H was a star and took all the in store photos as I was let loose to do my bidding. Muahahah! >:D Was a nice surprise.

So of course you might be wondering what my haul was?

Well wollah:

I think I did quite well considering I couldn’t buy too much or any larger items as we didn’t have a suitcase. Mr H was awesome and carried the Tuxedo Sam bag through customs. It was so cute!!

Lots of goodies for me and of course I had to pick up some gifts for some dear friends. Gotta share the happiness right!

Everything at the front (The pouches and mini notebooks.) were free gifts which was very delightful. I was over the moon to have been given a Jewel Pet pouch I adore Ruby. I did want to buy some Jewel Pet merchandise but was a bit to expensive for my budget. Quite a few people have asked me about the prices and I must say a lot of it was very reasonable. The was of course some extremely expensive stuff amongst everything, but isn’t there everywhere?

The most expensive purchase I made that day was the Tuxedo Sam bag which was only 17.90 Euros so not bad at all considering I was in the best place on earth…EVER!!

So there we have it my first ever trip to a Sanrio Store. I cannot wait to hunt down another!

Take care,

Birthday Goodness!

Posted on July 9, 2012 by fluffyghost| 7 Comments

Hey all!

On Saturday I turned 20, no longer a teenager! Gosh…

Doesn’t feel any different though I must admit.

I had a really awesome lazy day. Going out to eat, playing my games, having my partner be my butler for a day haaha. Was pretty damn good doing nothing. As I couldn’t be bothered to have the pressure to have to do something. Plus this is the 4th year it has rained on my birthday! This being the first it hasn’t mattered!

Soo yay!

*Be warned this post is going to be very photo heavy!*

I was truly spoilt! I want to thank family and friends for making my day so special and for all of you’re stunning gifts you gave me & for those to come also!

It’s days like this when you can’t help but know your loved and by whom.

Wouldn’t trade that serenity for all the money in the world. 

Well there we have it! I’m getting old!! :O

Haha, well take care see you all soon!

FluffyGhost on Instagram!

Posted on June 20, 2012 by fluffyghost| 1 Comment

Hey all.

Lately I’ve been addicted to the Instagram app… As I tend to take pictures of my everyday kawaii life compared to specialising on a handful of subjects per post as I do here. It’s just a lot more spontaneous and I love it! So I thought I should start uploading from time to time my Instagram photos so you can see more of FluffyGhost behind the scenes haha.

So here’s some photos from the last month:

As you can see I really am that much of a kawaii nut lol! I’ve been taking photos of my personal collection, everyday life, new purchases and my kitty when his being a ober cutie. I just love kawaii photography there’s just something about it where I can stare my day away at it. 

So if you want to follow me on Instagram and see all the rest of my feed. (Yes there are tons more photos for you to get your eyeballs into! (o^____^o)

Then follow: @fluffyghost

Hello Kitty Supermarket Finds.

Posted on April 17, 2012 by fluffyghost| Leave a comment

Hey!

Food shopping is usually a dull chore (For us normal folks haha.) in store or on-line it tends to drag a tad… One thing that does make me smile whilst doing the dreaded “monthly shop” is the Hello Kitty products.

If you go into any supermarket your find Hello Kitty in the usual places such as the home deco aisle (Like pillows, blankets, towels etc…) round the lunch box isle for tupperware, cups and such. Or of course the beauty & health isle. Although this is just enough to make food shopping a little better mentally that is I was quite surprised to find these goodies:

The mini cakes have been around for a while, but I still had to have them, same for the plasters really. But what really made my eyes light up to be honest was the ice creams. How adorable are they!? (I brought like two boxes haha.)

Even though Hello Kitty is slowly taking over the supermarket chains (Which is awesome I might add!) there are the occasional times when even I am still surprised at some of the kawaii products they bring to store! 

Which is just as well as food shopping sure is lame…

Take care,

L……..x

My Kawaii World!

Posted on April 13, 2012 by fluffyghost| 3 Comments

Hey,

Just quickly popping in with an insight into my kawaii life!

Today I wanted to share what I call my kawaii corner with you all.

So here it is:

It’s just one of my many safe havens It’s almost like a shrine I spose to me haha.

I tend to keep my smaller collectible plush here as well as some of the manga I have finished.

Although I tend to keep my larger collection stored away neatly.

My kawaii corner is on top of my chest of draws so I am forever going back & forth to this part of my bedroom.

The mirror & blue mini chest of draws I’ve had since I was small so I doubt I’ll ever get rid of those. (Even if they do seem to be the odd bits out of this kawaii equation. My favourite storage here would be my pink Rilakkuma draws as well as the tiny Hello Kitty draws I have on top of the larger blue unit. (I’ve had that for a very long time too.)

I tend to keep most of my kawaii inside of kawaii tins, boxes, cute storage etc… So  the goodies out on display are only a small part of my personal collection, I have gathered from over the years. My favourite part of this corner recently would have to be my “charm tree” well it’s a white heart but I look at it like that.

From Nyan Nyan Nyanko charms, Sanrio, Jewel Pets, San-X, Tofu Cute, to handmade. I love adding new goodies to it.

I also tend to get a lot of kawaii goodies from swaps too. So I’m always proud to display some of my favourite bits & bobs I’ve received from the ever so lovely kawaii community on Flickr.

So there you have it, a small insight into my everyday kawaii life!

If  you have any kawaii places in your home & would like to feature on FluffyGhost, then drop me an email…I would love to hear from you all!

Take care & have an awesome weekend.

Hello Kitty Collections.

Posted on April 10, 2012 by fluffyghost| 1 Comment

Hey!

Hope everyone had a great Easter & of course bank holiday if you did.

It’s been a hectic weekend as it was my partners birthday but of course lots of fun!

Today I thought I would take it easy a bit and just share some of my newest Hello Kitty items to find its way into my collection. (I do use most of my Hello Kitty items.)

So here they are:

I did order the chocolate Hello Kitty doughnut squishy but for some reason got the plain vanilla one…I was a bit pffft  at first but what can you do: It’s still super kawaii & better yet my partner actually believed it was real & was about to consume it. That would have been a disaster just waiting to happen haha.

I also purchased a 2001 vintage styled Hello Kitty wash kit. I’ve always been a massive fan of the original Hello Kitty designs. Theres just a certain class about it. Plus you can never go wrong with a classic…It’s always refreshing to have some of the other Sanrio characters alongside Hello Kitty. You never tend to see Mimmy around these days.

Last but not least my new Hello Kitty plush. I won it in a crane grabber machine. Took me awhile but finally its mine haha. I do tend to go a bit crazy on those things. A good tip I tend to find is let other people use it, wait & watch. Let them use their money up first then give it a go. Reason being crane machines are fixed…Theres a certain number ratio that it runs through before it allows you to win a prize. That is of course if you even pick it up. It can be rather frustrating at times. But this way has never failed me!

So there we have it…My recent Hello Kitty scores.

I’m off to a busy day so take care!
