Cute & Convenient Things For Your Home or Apartment

Tuesday, September 15th, 2015

Having little things in your living space that are cute will make you smile every time you use them!  Filling your lifestyle with these small happinesses will begin to positively impact your mood.  And yes, even small, unimportant items around your house or apartment like these can contribute to that difference.  Cuteness is that powerful!

cute convenient things for home (1)

Bow-Accent Ruffled Switch Cover

The square cutout at the center of this is sized for Japanese lightswitch plates,
so this may not fit over a vertically rectangular lightswitch, but alternatively
it could be hung over a hook or other small feature on the wall!
This comes in a few polka-dotted colors –
the brown one makes the cute bears look extra chocolatey!

Kitty Cat Hanging Pocket

Omg these cute kitties!!
These look super convenient for tossing things into
when you come in the door, etc etc~
The fabric that the kitties are printed onto,
and the wooden dowel that they hang from
give this a cottage-y, vintage-y look!

Pastel Polka Dot Tape Measure

Ok, I need to have tape measure with me ALL THE TIME,
and especially if I’m going to be carrying it in my purse,
I am going to want it to look cute and colorful!!
I loooove the pastel, polka-dotted colors that these heart-shaped
tape measures come in!!

Water Hourglass

This entry strays from the ‘cute’ them of the rest of my posts –
this one’s just PRETTY!!
The water inside combined with the cut of the glass looks crystalline~
And these hourglasses come in several colors and sizes!
They look pretty displayed in a group like this~

in addition to their obvious use in the bathroom!

This looks especially nautical compared to the others featured today,
and it is a dress rather than a set!

yoshiswoolyworld

Yoshi’s Woolly World

This was first shown at E3 some years back –
for some time it was only known as “Yarn Yoshi!”
But it’s finally coming out in the US on October 16
I’m so excited!  And I can’t wait to play co-op! ^o^
There are so many cute yarn Yoshi designs to unlock and play as, too!

popolocroisstoryofseasons

Return to PopoloCrois: A Story of Seasons Fairytale

Ahhhh this looks so preciousssss!!
Story of Seasons is the current localization name for the Harvest Moon series,
so really, this has the same “Fantasy Harvest Moon” subtitle as Rune Factory!
This PopoloCrois adaptation of Story of Seasons looks like a combination
of Rune Factory and Fantasy Life – my favorite game from last year!
I’m really looking forward to it!

PopoloCrois: Story of Seasons comes out January 5, 2016!

yokaiwatch

Yo-Kai Watch

Yo-Kai Watch is an INCREDIBLE sensation in Japan,
and this is the first installment of it reaching the US!
It will be coming over along with a cartoon on TV
and toys licensed by Hasbro.
I hope it becomes very successful, because it is a wonderful world
filled with kooky Yo-Kai critters that make for an awesomely fun
little monster-collecting, RPG-battling experience!
And the girl hero that you can play as is super cute! n_n

Yo-Kai Watch comes out November 6!!

mocomocofriends

Moco Moco Friends

OK… LOOK AT HOW CUTE THIS IS… THIS IS INSANE!!!
Moco Moco Friends is a monster-collecting and RPG-battling game
much like Yo-Kai Watch, except your player character and all of her friends
are adorable magical witch girls, and their monsters are cuddly plushes!
Really, seriously, this is the Pokemon-like game
that I have been waiting for since the monster genre first emerged.
I can’t believe it took THIS long for a 100% cutesy version of the genre to happen.

Moco Moco Friends comes out November 17!

animalcrossinghappyhomedesigner

Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer

After New Leaf was insanely successful,
this spinoff game centered on designing cute homes for your animal neighbors
will be out on September 25!
The options for customizing homes (and the yards outside of them)
are SO HUGELY enhanced – you have to watch videos or trailers
of this game to see it in action, it’s all sooo cuuuute!!

Saturday, September 5th, 2015

Well, a lot of my clothing features are for elegant princess styles, but I have great admiration for cutesy juvenile styles as well!  These dresses and jumpers are for wearing when you feel ADORABLE!!

Classy Peach Fur Collar Skirted Coat

Coats with a skirted piece like this at the bottom are awesome,
because I don’t know about you guys but MY BUTT GETS COLD,
and having just a bit more length to your coat makes a HUGE difference.

Classy Scalloped-Edge & White Pearl Embellished Lavender Coat

Haha, this could have gone into my lavender roundup from just a couple days ago!
Those big chunky white pearls I think add the cutest look to this.

This one is a little thinner than the rest featured here,
good for those somewhat-cool days that aren’t full-on freezing yet!
The fluffy flower embellishment on the shoulder is its charm point!
