Welcome to Rainbow Chiffon! This blog will contain blog entries about stuff I feel like sharing with the Gyaru community or my other friends who are interested in fashion! Feel free to comment or email me! I love meeting new people!
Also, this is where I talk about Yelping/reviewing restaurants with Billy, my baked goods, and stuff that I've cooked. ♥
Yes, this is belated because, as usual, I had to work through the holiday... And then as soon I was done, Billy took me over to a friend's house and eat and burn the paper, all before midnight!
But I have some good tidings to bring. ^^ First thing is first - BILLY HAS A JOB! Yay! It's a really good job so the pressure is off of me. Of course, I can't just buy everything I want (not yet anyway) but this will give me some time to save up some money for Anime Expo! ^^ Yay~! Finally~!
Second thing on my mind is that - my weight loss seems to be imminent because, for literally 4 to 5 days, Billy and I have portioned our meals and we had already lost a few pounds! It's amazing how much we can do... Soon we're slowly starting to start exercising more but it's a little hard since we're doing it at home. ^^ I have a terrible habit of being a little more lazy when I work out at home... But I believe in myself! I know I can do it!
And finally thirdly, there's two more posts I'm going to make! I have received packages from Diana and Crees! How generous of them! <3 So I just want to apologize in advance for all the posts I'm about to make. @_@
Because I want to get from smallest to largest (I took a lot of pictures for these hauls, I was too excited!), I'm going to start on Crees's package first! :3 fall in the clouds »
I've always seen these around other people's blogs but it looks like Zoe of That's Zoe! has finally nominated me for one! *_* Thank you so much!! I'm so excited to finally do one of these. ^^ Anyway, here we go~!

MY ANSWERS
What's your most favorite part about blogging? Adding the content. ^^ I'm always trying to find something new either to share to or to explore with my readers! Sometimes there are days where I'm just completely uninspired but, in all honesty, it's mostly laziness that stops me from posting so much, heh.
What do you do other than blogging? I'm always on Twitter, Tumblr, playing Animal Crossing, browsing websites (most of the time, I'm doing some online window shopping).... but off the computer, I'm spending my time with Billy or I'm at work. I have friends I spend time with but they're usually so busy with family or work of their own. ^^
What are your interests? Anime, video games, Japanese fashion (obviously), technology, cute things, anime figures, ball jointed dolls, JPOP, KPOP, and baking!
What is your favorite TV show? Usually I would want to put an anime here but, heh, anime is an entire different category now. Hmm... Recently, Billy and I are caught up to Game of Thrones in a span of three days so I would say Game of Thrones. At least, for right now. :o
If you were to be stranded on a deserted island, what three things would you like to bring with you? My cell phone, my laptop, and my blanket!
What is your main goal for this year? To become happier with myself and to be confident in my looks.
How would you like to see yourself in 10 years time? I would like to be married and maybe with a kid on the way (or already have a kid!) and I would like to be financially secured with a good career.
Where do you want to travel? Japan, China, Hong Kong...
Are you a listener or speaker? I like to think of myself as a listener but, let's be real, I'm probably more of a speaker...
What do you like most about yourself - physical and characteristic trait? A physical trait I like about myself, are my naturally thick lips! A lot of women, I've noticed, try really hard to make their lips thick as possible when they have thin ones. I feel lucky that I don't have to do that to myself - instead it gives me a chance to experiment which look fits me best! As for a characteristic trait, I love that I'm really loyal to those I care about. I mean, yeah I'll call them out if they're being a butthole but it's not like I'll leave them in the first sight of trouble.
Describe a dream vacation. I would love to visit Japan, and in Akihabara district where Billy and I can look at all the games, anime, and everything that we're interested in. ^^ We can go to a maid and butler cafe and buy cosplay outfits, figures, and doujinshi! Of course, money wouldn't be an issue!! And we can try all sorts of food! :3
FACTS ABOUT MYSELF
Billy and I had been together for four years now (it'll be 5 years in November) - but we became official boyfriend & girlfriend after dating each other for three days.
I have a birthmark on my right eyeball.
I have an autistic younger brother.
I am addicted to stationary (especially pens and notebooks).
I have a phobia of balloons.
I have never broken a bone.
I have never been stung by a bee.
Watching Disney movies is another addiction of mine.
I have never left the United States, as of this post.
Very recently, Billy and I had finally bought ourselves a digital scale. And, do you want to know how much I weigh now?
200lbs or 92kg.
Of course, I don't look like I'm so in maybe some of the pictures you've seen of me - but I'll explain to you where all that extra fat went. It went to my butt. It all literally went to my butt. Billy had been commenting to me that my butt had been getting bigger - however, I had thought it was only him trying to tease me or goad me on.
Now I know that it really isn't that case. Instead, since Billy is 200lbs as well, we're both going to lose this extra weight and firm up the booty! Most people are on the hunt for the booty - we have too much of it!
Because of that, I really don't want to schedule any pictures that shows my full body or anything. My goal is to surprise everyone with how I look now! I mean, yeah, I'm going to post a before and after picture but the first thing I need to do is to join a gym.
Billy actually enjoys working out but I promised him that I won't complain anymore about being hungry and being sore (besides my legs and feet from work but that's a different story).
I feel ashamed of myself for letting my weight get to where it is but I honestly feel like I lost some... but now I realize it's just the front part. In order to make sure I feel entirely confident, I'm going to get to a proper size to where I'll flaunt myself more and actually want to show pictures of myself. I have been trying to lose weight for four years already and not once had I hit my weight and size goal.

The nickname is Lily. Born in August 27, 198(X) (which makes her a Virgo & a Fire Rabbit). Currently in Arizona, United States.
Other interests include watching anime, reading manga, writing, video games, baking, listening to Japanese & Korean music, tweeting, sleeping, learning about technology, writing, and others she can't remember.
Kinda shy, kinda quiet. Gets grumpy when hungry or sick. Can be critical towards others but generally very nice and has patience. Otherwise, she likes to have fun, eat, joke around, talk crap about music idols, and sleep. She's nice 99.9% of the time unless she's having one of those days.
This blog started out as a school project in April 2012 but soon became an addiction!
As with most Gyaru blogs, I'm going to do reviews!
Disclaimer
The reviews I leave are strictly my opinion as well as to be considered constructive criticism. My intention is not to come off as harsh, mean, rude or as an attacker but to give the item or store a (hopefully) fair judgement based on my experiences and knowledge.
If you have any questions, comments, or if you want me to review your products, feel free to contact me!
The purpose of “Quick Look-Through” is to, well, quickly look through an online shop that sells to Gyarus all over the world without actually having to buy anything. I would, of course, want to review those when I do manage to get it but until then…
I’m going to be blunt: I don’t have any money to spend on these Gyaru online shops. As much as I want to, there’s just no way I can do it now or maybe even in the future. Or in the odd time that I do have money, I’m rather picky about what I expect and want from these shops. Great navigation, good colors, awesome products with affordable prices and the likelihood of reaching an international market (let’s be real here – we Gyarus come from all over the world).
I will only look through online stores that at least have an English option.
Disclaimer:
The reviews I leave are strictly my opinion as well as to be considered constructive criticism. My intention is not to come off as harsh, mean, rude or as an attacker but to inform Shop Owners in the means of bettering their store front.
It is understandable if you have any questions, comments, or inquiries. Please feel free to leave a comment or contact me and I will get back to you.
These are past websites that I have done a Quick Look-Through of. They're in alphabetical order.
If you want to exchange links, feel free to contact me and we shall link each other!
