MINT~yness ;D

Now I've been a fan of h.Naoto clothing since I first learned about them in the Gothic & Lolita Bibles...& I've seen the various lines that have come up over the years...but, i always kept to either Frill or Honey...& never branched out into the other styles...

But then, when Mint was scheduled to come & I was part of the fashion show, I wanted to research what sort of clothing designs he made & styles...just so i'd be prepared...and then, more & more, I started loving all of his clothes & designs XD

I also began watching his online show, Waratte Nyantomo, where I got to see more fashions as well as be introduced to some Visual Kei band members who appeared on his show ^_^ It was all part of a Music meets Fashion thing that Mint was doing & all the guest artists did Collab items with Mint & then wore them on his show ^^

After watching all of them, I REALLY wanted to own more Mint Neko pieces...so, i checked the comm sales & then finally checked mbok, which is harder since it's auction, but if you go through a good SS, it's actually really easy to bid on items ;)

I managed to find 2 items I REALLY wanted & quickly bid on them...Then, while i was waiting to see if I won those, a friend mentioned about Mint Neko tights, so I quickly checked the online stores for those & found one that would be PERFECT with my New items as well as the ones I already owned ;D

After paying for the tights, I found out I won my other 2 items & then...after waiting for a bit, I finally received them XD

 2 packages from Japan ^_^

 First, was from the S.Inc site itself, but maybe next time I'll go through an SS...the markup wasn't too bad though...Japanese tights ARE rather expensive...

 But the quality is sooo amazing XD

I HAD to get these uber cute striped tights w/ cat drawings all over ;)

 And so, I quickly made an outfit using my fashion show top & necklace, my favorite black jacket & my new studded creepers XD

closeup of the cat designs ;)

And the design goes all the way to my toes...sooo cute ;D

And then...my next package had my Mbok order ^_^

 A super cute oversized sweater that looked waay too comfy to pass up ;)

 And a quick worn pic with the "cat pose" ^^

The neck part is really loose, so you can wear it like a cowl neck...or have it hang low...or even do off-the-shoulder ;) And it's SUPER comfortable XD

 Then, a really cute Mint Neko tshirt ^_^

 But, the real reason is...IT'S RYOHEI'S COLLAB SHIRT ^_^

I saw it & knew IMMEDIATELY!! & also, I HAD to have it ;D
It even still had the tags on O_O 
But, I saw it on mbok & then quickly "had" to watch the episode again to make SURE that was the right shirt...but i knew ;)

I love how it says"MINT NEKO x MEGAMASSO" too ^_^

And here's the worn pic...even the tshirts are super comfortable ^^

Now, i'm pretty happy with my Mint Neko collection...for now ;)

but as for h.Naoto...I REALLY want to obtain a GRAMM piece one day, so that might be my next purchase ^_^
