JAPAN TRAVEL 2018

Konnichiwa everyone!!!
So if you follow me on instagram (@vampire.yuri) you already know I will visit Japan this summer for the first time!!! I am so excited about that especially because it is my dream since I was little to go to Japan ** The program of the travel is ready since I was 11 so it was quite easy to organise this travel😄😄

I will leave with my best friend and we will be there for 3 weeks!!! To organise all and have more informations about museums, cultural monuments and events we used the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC GUIDE!! for being a tourist guide, it is very cheap (only 15€) and it is full of colored photos and historical and cultural informations 💓

For the hotels, we reserved all of them at BOOKING.COM best website for that where we found many appartments to rent and also traditional japanese hotels called RYOKAN 😍😍 We reserved one room in a Ryokan in Nara and I think it would be the best day in japan!!😆😆 We will have a traditional room with the tatami, free kimono, a traditinal dinner and also real onsen (thermal bath) in the hotel!! reslly can't wait to be there 💓

TOKYO GHOUL: GIRLY KANEKI

Konnichiwa everyone!!
Today I want to speak a little about TOKYO GHOUL one of my favorite manga at the moment with My hero academia and Attack on titan!! It is strange for me because I am more a shojo girl and it this period I love only shonen ahah xD by the way I really like this manga because it rapresents very well our society: ghoul are only different from humans because of they eat and they are people who have feelings, who want to hava a family and friends but humans fear them and call them monsters and want to kill them all.. there are also bad guys who kill only for pleasure but they are in both side and we can't generalize.. so a really deep manga a must to read!!

So here my cosplay of the main character, Kaneki Ken, in a female version^^ I really don't like dress like a man so in general I do female version of best anime character and I was inpired to do a school girly version of Kaneki😊😊 more photos are on my facebook page

MONSTER PARTY FASHION SHOP

Konnichiwa everyone!!!
So if you follow me on the social networks you know I am working as a model for the japanese shop MONSTER PARTY so here I want to speak a little about the shop and doing a real article about japanese fashion (I hope to can do soon some videos about that for my youtube channel^^).

MONSTER PARTY is a japanese alternative kawaii visualkei shop situated in Shizuoka, a little city between Nagoya and Tokyo , and where you can find clothes from famous harajuku brands like HELLCATPUNKS or LISTEN FLAVOR but also original items of the shop.

As all japanese brands, the quality of all items is very high and this is the reason the prices are a little more expensive than things we can buy in Europe but trust me the money is well spent ^^
 I really don't know if you think the same but I really have had enough to buy stuff made with shabby and practically transparent fabric and all made in China -.- now I really prefer to spend a little more but have very cool and quality items^^

Where buy from them?? MONSTER PARTY has on the online shopping platform RAKUTEN (https://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/hippies-fuji/) but from the beginning of 2018 they have also some articles on Amazon US and Amazon europe!!! (https://www.amazon.com/stores/node/11375276011?_encoding=UTF8&field-lbr_brands_browse-bin=Hippies&ref_=w_bl_sl_ap_ap_web_11375276011)

 Moreover the shipping cost isn't so expensive and your pack arrives in only 3 days!!! First time they sent me something I was shocked!!! I tought from Japan it would taken mooore time...this is the perfect exemple of  how efficient japanese people are!!!

So now I want to show you some of the clothes you can buy from this amazing shop and one of the collest thing is that all their items are ONE SIZE and UNISEX!!! everyone can wear them easily and finally a shop also for alternative guys ;)
To see all the clothes I have from them follow me on my social networks (instagram:@vampire.yuri or facebook: www.facebook.com/vampireyuri ) and watch my videos on youtube (

PLZ DIE!!!

Konnichiwa everyone!!!
So here a little different look from my usual kawaii outfits^^ a little throughback as I was younger when I was more metal than goth or kawaii^^ In reality I still call myself a metal girl because I really prefer metal music than goth but it is true that these last months I have listened only to jmusic, visulkei and so on so we can say I love to change sometimes^^

This is another look with one of the product I got from the amazing japanese shop MONSTER PARTY!! they have full of amazing stuff and the most of them are unisex so guys there is stuff for you too ;)
