Paradise Kiss- A cute fashion manga staple.



I know ParaKiss is probably old news to most of you, but I thought I'd talk about it anyway since I'm just getting into it and there are still people who might not know about it.
Paradise Kiss, by Ai Yazawa, is not only a manga that's pretty to look at, but has some seriously gripping parts to it and very lovable characters. What I love the most is that it doesn't unrealistically rush-it takes it's time and really sucks you in. This manga is one of the reasons what Ai is queen of Shojo manga, and it's well worth the read.

And if you're really into it and want more, I suggest reading Neighborhood Story!

Kickin' lolita old school.









Normally, I give you a place or object I'm fascinated with. This time, the subject is more of an idea. Lolita has been around for about...20..maybe even more (?) years now. With the roots of the fashion much different then what is commonplace with lolita now, many people are feeling nostalgic. I must say, it's very fun seeing the differences, and the similarities. Honestly I love old and new alike. Hime cut, anyone?

adorable Beepuke

Zonbi, or rather Beepuke, is not only a sweetie in person, but a great artist! She sells her prints at Naka-Kon and Motaku, and I'm lucky enough to have a drawing of hers hanging in my room! She's very careful in her process, making her stuff impeccably good.

Woah, Dream of Lolita's got dreamy dollhouse, too?

So, putting aside the controversy, there have been some brand new replicas on the popular Taobao shop, Dream of Lolita. I think that the skirts look the best. If you're looking for some less expensive lolita clothing, and don't mind the lesser quality, Dream of Lolita has what you're looking for. Even if you just want some cute clothes!

Milkbun @ Deviantart; a cute pixel and craft artist!


Milkbun makes pretty much everything I love. Pixels, plushies, papercraft, and cute artwork! I'm really surprised I haven't heard of her yet. Her website is unreachable at the moment, though...hopefully it'll be back soon! Luckily her Deviantart account still has stuff on it.

Love Berry: An adorably awesome magazine.






Love Berry is a magazine I'm lucky to say I own a few of myself. However, for those who don't have one to read, here you can read a lot of issues for free.
Like most magazines, Love Berry has fashion spreads, makeup tutorials, and shopping guides. What I think separates this one from the others is that they just do things so much cuter! Even if you don't feel like wearing Care Bears t-shirts or pink lipgloss, this magazine is still interesting to oogle at.
