Lucky packs and the winners of our contest!

Filed under: Events, General News, It's Competition Time! — Meg @ 2:44 pm

Hi guys!

Our lucky packs are now available to purchase!! You can buy them from our lucky pack section here!

Grab yourself a New Years surprise and save up to 40%!!



And now it’s time to announce the winners of our Facebook Kawaii Inspiration Contest!

We have been absolutely blown away with all the entries we’ve recieved, and loved hearing who inspires you to stay Kawaii. So, we have a little surprise:

Everyone who entered our contest will receive a discount voucher to be used in the Electric Alice store!

The runner up in the voting contest will receive a 30% off discount voucher, and the lucky duck who comes third will receive a 20% off voucher! Everyone else receives a 15% off  voucher for their next purchase! Hooray!! Congrats guys, we will be emailing you your special discount codes in the next couple of days.

And now, we’d like to announce the winner of the Electric Alice Choice Award!

The winner of this award was selected by a panel of Electric Alice staff, contributors and models, who were looking for a cute and creative entry. We have to say, it was a terribly tricky decision- there were creative use of colours in coordinates, cute collages, handmade dresses and heartwarming stories of kawaii inspiration abound. Not to mention the fact that EVERYONE was just too cute!! After much deliberation, we have decided to award the Electric Alice Choice prize to…

Victoria!

“My kawaii inspiration is Heri from Grimoire. She has always been my favourite! Her outfits from various street snaps and the Grimoire blog entries are also one of the things that made me want to try this fashion out. To me, she is simply the perfect Dolly.”

We felt Victoria put an interesting spin on the concept of Kawaii with her Dolly Kei coordinate. It’s really hard to pull off a Grimoire outfit, and Victoria’s done so with style! We also thought she put a lot of effort into her entry with the super cute collage. Congratulations, you’ll be receiving $75 worth of Electric Alice goodies in  the mail soon!

And the winner of the voting contest is…..

Pastelbat!

“Greetings we are kyaryians our beloved kawaii princess have gone missing. Have you seen her?
—————-
My kawaii inspiration is kyary. Her quirky style inspires me she combines cute with creepy like no other person i have seen and the outcome is fantastic every time!”

Congratulations Pastelbat, you will be receiving an Electric Alice coordinate worth $150 in the mail!

Well, guys this contest was lots of fun! We’d love to run another in the near future, so if you have any suggestions comment below or send us an email to enquiry@electricalice.com!

Happy New Year everyone! Don’t forget our Lucky Packs!!

Super cute documentary and some updates! <3

Filed under: General News, It's Competition Time!, Lolita, Musings — Meg @ 10:40 am

Hello cupcakes!

Before we get on to the news, we wanted to show you this really cute little documentary by Brisbane Lolita Goldie! Take a look and let us know what you think!

We thought it was really interesting to hear about the experiences people have had whilst wearing lolita. We especially loved the wig story! Was there a story that you liked or could identify with?

We also have some news for you today! ♥

First of all, we will be posting our first lot of photos for our Kawaii Inspiration Contest tomorrow! We’d love to see your entry!

You are allowed to wear any Harajuku or cute style because really they are all adorable in their own quirky way. :> Also, you are allowed to use collages as well, but you are only allowed to use one outfit in your entry, kay? ♥

Secondly, if you haven’t already, you should totally add us on facebook for exclusive content, updates and special sales! Over the weekend we had a sale for our facebook followers and it was a lot of fun!

Thirdly, we want to say hello to who we think might be our youngest fan, Miss B who is 11 years old! Hello darling, Electric Alice is for girls just like you! Always be yourself and be proud of who you are. ♥ And that goes for all of you guys! ♥♥

That’s all for now guys! Check this space out tomorrow for the link to our contest entries! ♥♥

Electric Alice Casting Call

Filed under: Events, It's Competition Time! — Lisa @ 3:18 pm

This is an official Casting Call for Electric Alice models. We have seen a lot of great outfit snaps from our readers, and we’ve received a few emails from girls who expressed interest in modelling, so we know there must be a heap of you out there! Even if you have emailed us before, please re-submit your details for this exciting project because we recently lost a lot of our older emails. :(

Anyway, allow us to introduce our photographer: Brendan Daniel! He has made a name for himself in Japan by photographing J-Rock idols like Mana, fashion labels like Takuya Angel, and even the adorable Maki and Lailah (RinRin) from Angelic Pretty! (I don’t know about you guys, but we’re sooo damn jealous!)

Awesome, tell me more!

★ The photo shoot will take place in a professional studio with full outfit styling – with some cute new products you haven’t seen yet! The photos will be used on ElectricAlice.com, Facebook.com, Livejournal fashion communities and other related websites.

★ The shoot will be fully catered. <3

★ Brendan will supply each model will a couple of edited photographs on CD, for your portfolio!

★ If we like working with you on this shoot, we will offer you the chance to work on a high-concept, fashion story that we will be sending out to high-profile fashion magazines across Australia!

I’m in! What do I need to do?

★ Make sure you are free on Sunday, January the 30th, 2011, and that you can get to Randwick, near Centennial Park, in Sydney. We will do our best to provide lift-sharing to everyone but we can not guarantee it!

★ Make sure you are prepared with your make-up and hair done, and we will give you the finishing touches.

★ Give us your name, age, and measurements (bust, waist and hips), along with 2-3 clear, large pictures of yourself that show your face and your body type. (We are not necessarily looking for thin or tall models, but girls with a cute and unique look that can fit a Japanese size 9, which is somewhere an Australian 8-10.) Send your submissions via email to enquiry[at]electricalice.com by January 26th. The earlier, the better!

That’s it! Good luck!
