Ryu-con Haul

I have to apologize once again for my absence! Unfortunately all of this work to get my shop up & running, job hunting, Babysitting, and Animal Crossing is consuming my life. But I wanted to share with you guys some goodies my friends & I purchased at Ryu-con! My little sisters wanted to go so I took them as a last minute thing. I also made them Minun & Plusle cosplays! I don't have any photo's from the event as it was extremely expensive and not much to see inside. BUT there were some super cute vendors! After spending over $100 just to get in, we didn't have much money left for spending but managed to get a few cute things! 


The first bunch of jewelry we got was from The Petite Macaron. Check out her etsy! Everything is hand made and adorable! Looks almost good enough to eat. I especially love these little macaron platter rings!




The next bunch of items are from Hip Hop Candy! I can't get over how CUTE all of their items were! And really reasonably priced too! We also got another ring and button but it's not pictured here (sorry!)





I LOVE THE CANDLES! They have the best selection of scents, and trust me, I smelled almost every one that was on display. Not to mention how adorable the packaging is. Even when my candle is gone I get to use this cute tin to store whatever, hehe. And the lotions are also amazing! I must have put it on over a couple hours ago and I can still smell it on myself! It's not too strong either so don't worry! It's just right! I will for sure be buying more of these. I want every scent!

Wig Haul & Review

Hello lovelies!! Today I'm back to share with you my new wig shopping experience. Right now I'm in the process of coloring my hair an obnoxious color while looking for a new job. And obviously most companies will not hire you with colored hair , so naturally my first though was "wig!" since I do not want to give up having fun hair.
I placed an order with my friend from a seller on Amazon that goes by X&Y Angel. Click here to view their items, or just type X&Y Angel into the search bar.
I've never owned a wig before but like most people, I've seen some pretty messed up ones. Either they're styled all strange, way too shiny, or just not at all what the model is wearing. Of coarse when ordering anything online (especially Amazon) you're not sure what exactly you'll be getting in the mail. Advice to anyone, before you buy read all the shops & items reviews. If there aren't any, don't take the chance. But this seller seemed to have good reviews so I gave it a shot.


The package seemed sketchy at first. The corners were a bit ripped and such but it was packed pretty well with a good amount of bubble wrap inside. Then I pulled out the wigs and they were both wrapped neatly in a separate bag.


This is what they looked like when I pulled them out. SO SOFT! I wasn't expecting them to be so soft. They also sent me 2 wig caps which I was thankful for because I forgot to purchase them when I bought the wigs. AND they even sent me a cute little tiara (not pictured) for free! It retails for $7.99 so that was really nice of them.


Here are the wigs before styling or brushing. I was just too excited so I snapped quick pictures. Mine is on the left, and my friends is on the right. I don't have pictures of her wearing it, but I have some selfies of me.


Left is without flash and right is with. I keep getting SO many compliments when I wear it out. Everyone seriously thinks its my real hair. I almost feel guilty accepting the compliments. I think it's great how I initially bought this wig because I "needed" it for job hunting/interviews, but now I'd rather wear this than style my own hair! My overall rating is A+++.
Pros: Nice adjustable band. Not too thick, but not too thin. Breathable & comfortable. Barely any fall-out. Not so shiny. Well put together and didn't require much styling or trimming.
Cons: ...NONE!

If you're looking for a wig check out X&Y Angel on amazon! This post was in no way sponsored either. I purchased these with my own money. And want to know the best part? They were only $14.99 EACH! You seriously cannot beat that price for such a great quality wig. ♡Thank you X&Y Angel!!♡

More random things,


These are my current travel necessities. 2 were in my last monthly favorites, but go try these products out. So good.


And can someone tell me why we don't have these in America!? Blueberry cheesecake KitKats, I'm in heaven. That's all for today!

intro, mini-haul, & new friend!

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new blog! It's been too long so I'm back. I have a lot of really great things to share with you all! So I'll get right to the introduction; My name is Brittany Eileen. Some of you may remember me as Bikki (wow, that's going way back now). I live in Buffalo NY with my boyfriend and best friend. I will be posting everything from reviews and tutorials to just tidbits about my daily life. Hopefully all you guys reading will enjoy!!


Last Sunday was St. Patricks day! My family doesn't normally celebrate it so my boyfriend & I (Oh, by the way, my boyfriends name is Cody. You'll probably be hearing a lot about him!) went shopping at Target & Forever 21. I was mainly looking for small little things to fill up my friends basket for Easter, but bought myself a few cute things on the way. I couldn't help myself.


I ended up buying this Bunny Towel, a shelving unit to hang in my closet, and a studded black hat for myself. The towel & shelf were only $3, and everything else you see in the photo was only $1!!! target has some of the best dollar items. So reasonable and adorable! Usually if I want to buy YanYan or Hello Panda I have to get it from the Asian market and its around $3, so you cant pass up that deal! And the hat and nail polish were from Forever 21. Afterwards we went back home, I set up her basket, and we had some beers. It was a calm, nice St. Patty's day.


The next day Cody & I  had to travel out to Amherst to go to our favorite pet store, Markheim Pets.


Here is a better photo of the hat I bought! The main reason I got it is because it reminded me so much of John Marston for some reason. He's my most favorite video game character ever, and if you haven't played Red Dead Redemption before, I highly recommend you do!


Blocked out my derp face. I love the outside of Markheim, they have it painted so cute. I was nervous to walk in because I heard they were getting in 4 black lionhead rabbits. I've been talking about how badly I wanted a lionhead with Cody and they had just kept coming up. Well when we walked in they were all right there. so fluffy, cute, and irresistible. Even Cody fell in love with these babies. And they were only a month old! So sweet. And Cody actually surprised me with getting one!


This is my new baby!! I don't know if it is a boy or a girl yet. The people that work at Markheim at night were not very helpful at all. But I'll figure it out, haha! If you guys have any name suggestions let me know in the comments! I have to go train him that his litter box is not a bed now. Good night!
