July StitchFix Box!

Seeing my StitchFix box at my mailbox always makes me happy because I know I'm about to get some cute new clothes! Here's what was in my box this month!

Gilli Trista Faux Wrap Dress, $68

Ooh, I really liked this dress. I need a couple more dresses to add to my dress collection, and this one would be great for a lot of different occasions. This one was a keeper.

Level 99 Cindie Linen Printed Short, $78

Oh man, I love these shorts. They fit so well and are so beautiful. But that price point! I just can't justify 80 bucks for a pair of shorts; especially white ones that I will inevitably and quickly get dirty. Sigh, oh well.

41Hawthorn Beckett V-Neck Blouse, $48

This top is okay. It's pretty, but not really me. The fabric was that kind of synthetic stuff, not super soft. 

Market & Spruce Sam Hi-Lo Short Sleeve Tee, $44

I did really like this top! It's soft and fit nicely. But... I have like 5 gray tops already. So, I had to decline this one with regrets.

Anamarie Crisscross Flats in Light Purple, $59

Love! My stylist sent me these because I pinned something similar! They fit quite well and are obviously gorgeous! I love a good crisscross.

Anime Expo 2016!

Last weekend, I attended Anime Expo for the... third (I think?) time! As I've probably said in my previous posts, I don't actually watch anime. I do appreciate random Japanese stuff, though, so there's definitely stuff for me at this convention.

This giant... guy greeted us in the entry way to the convention center. This was before Pokemon Go launched, so I was not able to capture him in a Pokeball.

There were a few non-anime things there, like this case of DC heroine figurines!

See, this here, this is right up my alley. Cuteness!

I don't know what this is:

Ninja bunny! Is there a ninja bunny anime? I would watch the crap out of that.

Game of Thrones?! What are you doing here?

An art of Boba Fett dragging Frodo to Mount Doom. I don't know, but I like it.

Cats in bananas were a theme this year, for some reason.

A Kirby and a Pokemon! They actually moved, and it was very strange. I wasn't sure if there was an actual person in there or what.

I finally got to see Kiba, the Cosplaying Corgi! She was signing/pawing her autograph. TOO CUTE.

Squirtle Squad Goals! #squirtlesquadgoals

For some reason, anime cars? Also, it's hard to tell, but the blonde girl behind the bike is a Cyclops. She was wearing a plastic mask with a cyclops eye that blinked. It was terrifying and still haunts my dreams.

As usual, I bought a mystery grab bag from one of the booths. It was a really good one, I got a stuffed cat from some game called Monster Hunter, as well as 2 cat hats from the same game. One of the better grab bags I've gotten!

Like this:

There was a large Neko Atsume set up, which was very exciting for me. They showcased their new kitty figurines. This is the only one out yet, and of course I immediately bought it:

Upcoming sets:

I got so excited when I saw this set up, you don't even know. It's hard to tell, but the fat white pillow I'm laying on is Tubbs! How nice, he left me some gold anchovies. 

Pretty good Anime Expo show this year. Next year, we might stay downtown and make a weekend of it, like we did for WonderCon.

CatCon 2016!

This past weekend, I went to CatCon! Yes, you heard me right, a convention devoted solely to cats and cat accessories and cat products! Held at the Reef in downtown LA, this show saw over 12,000 cat lovers in attendance over the weekend!

CatCon was spread out over 2 different floors with both booths and experiences. Pusheen had a big presence with lots of adorable Pusheen items for sale!

I bought one of these Unicorn Pusheens, because obviously.

For some reason, I didn't buy this Pusheen onesie!

Several Cats of Instagram also made appearances over the weekend, like Lil Bub, Pudge, and Nala!

Yeah, I wore cat ears! Where else can an adult wear cat ears in public and not get shamed for it??

There were so many booths with cute cat items, like this one by Kimchi Kawaii which featured cat-shaped mochis and cat-shaped coffee!

100% Soft, maker of cute emojis and other cute things, had a booth featuring their Kaiju Kitties!

Lil Bub also had his own booth with all his merchandise, as did many, many other famous, semi-famous, and wannabe famous cats.

There was a Cat In A Box escape room, which I'm sure was fun but I had no interest in waiting in line for ever for it. Kat Von D was also there doing makeovers. Not sure if the makeovers made you into a cat, or just gave you a cat-eye.

They also had a cat adoption lounge! These were the only real cats allowed at the show; they advised to leave your own cats at home, probably to avoid catfights or catnapping! I hope lots of cats and kittens got adopted out!

Bonus picture of my shadow where I almost look like Pusheen with my ears on.

CatCon was a great show with lots of cool stuff to do, see, and buy. We didn't spend too much time there, but with the various activities and panels, you could easily spend the whole day there. I definitely want to go again next year!
