☆~ Hyper Japan - Super Sonico - 2014 ~☆

Hello everyone~♪

Last month I went to an awesome event in London called Hyper Japan♪!

1. Hyper Japan is a three-day celebration of all things Japanese and takes place in London~~♪ (Normally Earls Court). Hyper Japan is dedicated to bringing you everything cute, cool and contemporary about today's Japan, pop culture and fashion~~!! ^-^

   I wanted to share with you my Hyper Japan experience!

   On Saturday the 26th~ I cosplayed Super Sonico in her Taiga Parka! It was WAYYYYYYY too hot to wear this cosplay but... you know me ww~♪ fans, water & hot weather spray at the ready~ ww!

   

   
   There was a Fuiji Film booth set opposite the Moshi Moshi Nippon stage!
   I managed to pop there when noone was there and get a free polariod photo taken~♪  ´っ>//<ｃ` ♡  If you went there at certain times you could get a polariod with some adorable models like EVA & Anna~♪
   
   

   

   
   Polaroids are so cute aren't they? ♡✧。(⋈◍＞◡＜◍)。✧♡
   I cannot wait to get myself a Instax Mini 8 whilst I am in Japan~♪
   
   Half way through the day I was so lucky to arrive at the Moshi Moshi Nippon booth at the time the Models were coming for photos!! ugsfigug~~!! aaa!!
   LOOK HOW PRECIOUS THEY ALL ARE~!
   We're all the same height ww~ ´っ>//<ｃ` ♡
   
   
   

   

   
   I'm so glad I got to meet them all~! She even said that my headphones were cool as they lit up~! ヽ(｡ゝω・｡)ﾉ☆
   When Hyper Japan was setting up I saw that they were having a Kyary Pamyu Pamyu Booth~!! *aaaaaa* So I went to visit it and to my surprise the REAL and Original "PON PON PON" costume was there~!! I was so happy xD Because Kyary is a HUGE inspiration & role model too me~♪ (*^ω^*)
   I was so surprised to see that the glasses around the neckline were sillybands~~!! That's so creative ww~
   
   
   
   

   

   
   Around 3:30pm the Maids of England were performing on stage there~~♪

☆~ Kyary Pamyu Pamyu - 2014 London ~☆

Hello everyone~~!
I was so so lucky to of been able to attened Kyary Pamyu Pamyu's 2nd world tour in London at the Shepherds Bush O2 empire~! ^-^
I love Kyary so much! She is my biggest inspiration for most things~♪

Last year I made myself a "Pon Pon Pon" cosplay to wear but this year I tried my best to make her 1st "Ora2" costume~!!

I'm so so pleased with it~!
Here are a couple of photos of my cosplay with a few cuties!
if you want to see the progress of how I made the cosplay click here!

 This photograph was taken after the concert~! My skirt went a little flat and all squished ww~ it's got bobbles all over it too but I don't mind because it was amazing and kyary was fantastic~ T^T

 Jojo poses with Kelsey & Ploy~ヽ(｡ゝω・｡)ﾉ☆

Meeting everyone was so much fun~! It was a pleasure to meet you all! You guys are all so cute mdjsgsfiguf >////<
Thank you so much! ^-^

Anywho~~ back to Kyary~!
Kelsey and I started to queue at 11:30am armed with packed lunches, big bags and umbrellas in case the weather hated us ww~!  Time went so so fast! I couldn't believe it!
7:01pm.. DOORS OPENED. I SQUEELED AND IN WE GOO~~~~
We were so so close to the front~!
After my bag was checked, I rushed to the far left hand side to grab us all front row views~!! I've never been able to be at the front of a concert before~!! ´っ>//<ｃ` ♡ I'm so happy that it was Kyary's concert I managed too! even though we were super squished w~

Look at her beautiful set~! It was filled with giant fantasy books and a jack-in-a-box with a giant bed and huge teddy bear~♪

Kyary's dancers were as fabulous as always 。*:゜☆ヽ(*’∀’*)/☆゜:。*。 not a flaw in their dancing~!! And on top of that they really liked to smile at you if you were dancing the dance too!! so happy ww~

 excuse my blurry photos but I couldn't stop dancing and singing~ ww! ´っ>//<ｃ` ♡

Here's a little video that I made for my Instagram~~♪

Her little speech in english made me go all fuzzy because she's too cute. xD 

 

Now for the rest of the photos I have on my phone~~! I wish I took a camera now T^T orz

Kyary was just so precious and flawless~♪ Her outfits, Her flawless make-up and adorable hair styles~! ´っ>//<ｃ` ♡ I'm so beyond happy I got to see her for the 2nd time!

This time I managed to get some super cute merch!
I've been wanting Kyary's "もったいないとらんど" Pink strawberry poop for AGESS~!
And when I saw that it was on her store online.. I just had to get one~! ♪★*☆ヽ( ＾-＾)/★*☆♪ So my good friend Lulu went up to the merch table and got me a Kyary Badge, KPP Nanda collection world tour hoodie in a size M and finally A PINK POOP! 



Unfortuanly the hoodie is like an XL on me and not flattering at all so instead of it hiding in a wardrobe, I hung it from my ceiling for all to see ww~
I'm really regretting not getting the baby blue t-shirt in a small *cries* if anyone is re-selling one let me know~! (*´ω｀*)♡

I think it looks rather cute up there~~ Don't you? ww~☆
It's got a purple world with green countries, and blue & pink writing~!

Did you guy's buy anything from a Kyary concert~? :D and if so what did you get?

Thank you everyone for reading~
I hope you enjoyed this blog post as much as I enjoyed writing it ^-^

☆~ Dancing in a Professional music video~!! - 9/02/2014 ~☆

Hey Everyone~! 

How have you all been? I hope you are good~! ^-^

 I want to share with you something I did Yesterday, Which was really exiting~! 

It all started at 6:15am in the morning where Kelsey and I got up and got all showered and packed then met up with Kelsey friend and went to the studio/filming set for a Music video~!! 

We were asked to be dressed in cute, funky, colourful japanese fashion inpsired outfits and be the "J-pop" dancers in this professional music video for a singer~!

Here are some photos of my outfit I put together~!
(I don't have many photos as we were filming a lot! but the production crew took hundreds xD so I'm sure at least one will be sent my way to show you~!)

 I had my new Kyary Mameshiba slippers on~! With some Cosmates stripey socks! I had one of my blue socks and Kelsey lent me one of her pink socks haha~! I added a little Korilakkuma bear to the side of my sweater and a little pink plush star on my bloomers! ヽ(｡ゝω・｡)ﾉ☆ 

For the top half I had my Spreepicky ginger wig on, styled with a side fringe and in Twintails~ I added a DreamyBows charm to it and a big silver bow on top~! (∩^o^)⊃━☆ﾟ.*･｡ This wig is just so adorable and I couldn't not wear this for the video~!

 

 Kelsey brought along her Fuijifilm Instax mini 8 and we took a few of our outfits~!! We set it on the super beauty mode... but.. it was too bright for the green room/café we were in haha~! So this is my whole outfit... just really.. bright haha~! 

 

My whole rundown:

 Spreepicky Sailor Sweater & Bloomers, Spreepicky wig, Cosmates socks, Mameshiba slippers and some accessories~!

It was filmed in a little underground bar/stage with all moody lights and black lights too! It was rather fabulous! I can't wait to see the final edits of it~! ´っ>//<ｃ` ♡

This is what the place looked like before the production team & director moved everything out and added crazy paintings, black lights, smoke, coloured lights and black cloths~!! I can't actually recognise this photo below because it was so so different~! ww~

We had a little routine we had to learn and that was about 40 seconds long~! It took a lot of takes as sometimes we got it all 100% but they needed different angels and lighting and sometimes our bows decided to fly off into another dimension :) haha~~! 

A little Polaroid of us 3 on the stage after we had finished filming everything~! So bright and colourful~!! It was so nice to dance around doing something you love and helping at the same time~! ☆･:*:･(*/////∇/////*)･:*:･☆ 

I took this funny photo haha~! Kelsey's friend was taking a photo at the same time so Kelsey got confused which way to look haha~! wigs wigs lots of wigs~!!☆彡

I believe the final music video will be released in a couple of months~! (so long aaaaa) xD

But as soon as It's out I will link it here and on all my social media sites too~! Promise! haha~!

It was such a great experience and would love to do something like that again~! Had a lovely time with Kelsey and her friend~! ♡✧。(⋈◍＞◡＜◍)。✧♡ I think we ate wayyyy to many bourbons and chips... wayyyyyyy to many ww~

 Thank you so much for reading~! 

 I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post~!

See you next time~!

Extras: 

They hired out the café (which was our greenroom) next to the venue and it's a little family run business~!! ♡(´ ･ω･` ) ♡ I have never tasted such amazing chips and lamb... oh my gosh. I'm so so glad that they hired that place out too as that's probably one of my favourite café/restaurants now! haha~! THEIR CHIPS! Oh my gosh..

I have a discount / coupon code for Spreepicky! That gets you 10% off on everything at their store~!

You can use it as many times as you like!
Just pick something you like from their website and use the code "ABIPOP" at the checkout~!!
