MY 2 WEEK JAPAN HOLIDAY.

Finally an update :)
It will be very brief, and will make the trip sound simple!
But don't forget, we did something different and traveled far whether by foot, train, bus or car almost everyday! (a lot of the times in heels too..oh boy)
Ok, so my 2 week trip from the 3rd feb - 17th feb ..
HIGHLIGHTS
Auntie's cakes :D we demolished all but two!

Himeji Castle
We slept in almost everyday..so terrible.. we had to travel far to this place. We got there around 2:30pm and the castle closed at 4:30! So we basically ran around capturing images of this beautiful castle.

Ekiben which translates to station bento so pretty much what you buy to eat on the shinkansen! Love the shinkansens. Super fast and very smooth, feels like a plane ride! Was so comfy and quick that we all fell asleep and ran out of time to eat so we took it to our hotel and ate it there, which defeats the whole purpose of 'ekiben' hehe ohwell :)

Shinsaibashi famous crab place! Love this area. It's the south part of Osaka right next to Namba.

My gorgeous 4 year old cousin!

Aw he's playing with origami hehe and the other pic is all you can eat shabu shabu with my family. Was delicious!

Another photo with my cousin :)

Mister Donut .. my fav

Okonomiyaki

Met up with nic from Daily Beauty Buzz! She is stunning in her pictures and even more so in real life! Met up in Harajuku to do some shopping then headed to a bar where the boys were alreading downing beer. Got sleepy there just cos it was so warm and comfy inside. We had lunch & dinner together too! Was so great to meet you nic, hopefully next time im back in jpn you will be there! :) x

Our lunch :) yummy and filling.

Not sure if anyone knows her on here but I saw Angela in Shinjuku, Tokyo! She's a hong kong model who is actually from Shanghai. Unfortunately she doesn't speak English but she's super gorgeous and shes a rising star! *EDIT* 20/10/09 Apparently she can speak English!! And she's not too bad at it either!! When I met her, I talked in English and she looked confused and she was mute so I thought she couldn't understand haha! Now she speaks Mandarin, Cantonese, English and Japanese! So beautiful!! x

Zara..one of my favs..bought a pair of pants that I will soon be wearing n taking photos of!

On masage chairs.. this counts as highlights hehe cos i luurrved it! Wouldn't mind taking it home. A nice white massage chair would fit perfectly into my room!

A chinese restaurant called Din Tai Fun i think it was.. it was so good, better than ramen in my opinion anyway hehe.. those dumplings were so juicy my mouth waters thinking about them!

Shinjuku Prince hotel.. nice n small n cozy:) good location.

Jpn vs Aus soccer match in yokohama nissan stadium. Best night. The atmosphere was insane, we sat in the aussie stand and met heaps of random aussies! Really great night..

They asked us why we were in the aussie stands haha but we were saying noo we are from melbourneeee.. n they tested us with 'whats the national aussie food' and sing the australian anthem! hehehe funny guys!

Best ramen!

Disneyland Tokyo, inside minnie's house! Hotdog..yum.. bought those ears!

Cutting fringe in the hotel bathroom haha..

What I wore today? hehe sorry I will do a proper one soon.

Me and my bf :) ♡

more ramen.

This post is disappointing I know. I am currently sick with a sore throat, runny nose and headache so pls forgive me:).. I can't wait to start posting normal things. It's hard when there's a billion photos. I've got the rest up on my facebook. not even all of it or else that would be crazy.
Hoping to catch up on everyone's blogs and cm's .. this may take forever but will eventually! Bye all! Look forward to outfit posts soon! :) x

HOME SWEET HOME ♡ .

Heartofpearl is back in melb ladies :)
I know I said I'd update while in Japan, but I'm terribly sorry I had no time to do all that. It was a full on 2 week adventure. Was very happy to sleep in my own bed last night. Slept for 10hrs and I still feel as though I could sleep some more!
Now, I'm just wondering how I should update. Random photos all in one post or new post on each event. What to do. There are way too many photos. I think I'll just do week 1 and week 2 post in Japan! Will update soon!
