I havent done a Friday Random post in a bit.
Things have been crazy lately and i just havent had a chance! To make for it, this is a bumper post!!
1. Starbucks Valentine’s Day Goods
Picture from Starbucks Website
I was in Starbucks yesterday and spotted the new vday goods!
These tumblers are soo pretty!!
Spot that pink thermos flask? it was the last one left! i was soo tempted to buy it
They had really cute mugs too
Tumblers…
Where to buy:
Though i spotted these here in Tokyo, I looked quickly at the USA site online and they have the EXACT same bear http://www.starbucksstore.com/products/shprodde.asp?SKU=328571
So check to see if your local starbucks has the other items ^^ Let me know and i’ll update the entry~
2. Love Clover Valentine’s Day LE Glosses
Two new LE offerings from cosmetic brand LoveClover
Comes in strawberry or orange. I gave the testers a whiff and they really smell like chocolate!
The packaging is lovely and so is the display!
I like how they are packaged like little chocolates. I didnt buy these as i dont like the smell of chocolate.
I cant find these on the website so i have no clue what the price is [i didnt take note, sorry!]
Where to buy:
If you are outside of Japan, let me know if u are interested in getting one, if there is enough interest, i could ask my friend Fumiko if she can do a custom order for you guys. There’s no point asking me cos as u can see from the display above..the store i saw it at was almost sold out XD
3.HadaLabo Lotion LE Disney packaging
Are you a fan of HadaLabo’s lotion? If you are check out the LE Disney packaging!
There are 6 designs to collect [All the same lotion, not different varieties]!

Apologies to those of you who already saw this on twitter! I try to tweet a lot of beauty/fashion/food news and pictures about Japan. So you should check out my twitter! [yumeko55]
4.Nonno X Hello Kitty
This month’s issue of Nonno is giving away free hello kitty earphones.
Each pair comes with a crystal in Hello Kitty’s hairbow!

5.New Mooks i bought lately
Silicon Steamer + Recipe Mook
Has the whole silicon cookware fad hit your country yet?
Around the middle of the last year , Silicon Cookware took off like crazy in Japan. From the expensive Lekue brand to the Japanese made Viv brand, Silicon cookware has been selling like hotcakes.
I avoided them for ages but in the end i crumbled when i purchased a cookbook about a Viv pot and the rest is history. This is my 3rd Silicon pot
if you are interested in learning more about my descent into becoming a silicon cookware fan + silicon cookware recipes..lmk XD!
I dont know if this is considered a mook as its a monthly publication which you collect. Kinda like those StarTrek Files you can collect to put in a binder [wow i am so geeky sometimes XD]
Anyway this is Gaspard et Lisa TableWare Collection..uh Digest?
Volume 1 comes with a M sized Gaspard et Lisa plate
There are some recipes included
As well as 2 pages of games for you to enjoy with your kids [or by urself like me since i have no children]
Volume 1 is at a promotional price of 490yen [about USD$6], Volume 2 will come with a mug and is priced around USD$13. Volume 3 onwards will be the normal price of USD$15 [thereabouts]
How the entire tableset looks like
You can find out more at www.lgtwc.jp
Where to buy these mooks [or any other japanese books or japanese magazines you might be interested in]
If there are no japanese bookstores near you. You can try
-Amazon.co.jp
Shipping is extremely fast but extremely expensive.
- YesAsia or CD Japan
Shipping is free at YesAsia for buying over a certain amount. Thanks to Justine for the info!
[Cut and paste from my FAQ in case you dont read my FAQ XD!!!]
Did you manage to finish reading all that? Told you it was going to be a bumper Friday Random post XD
I hope you enjoyed this post and have an awesome weekend!
XOXO Yumeko
