Young at heart- the story of Kumamiki and Party Baby

Filed under: Artists, Fairy Kei, General News, review — Meg @ 1:04 am

Hi Guys,

Oh my god. I’ve just finished watching the most beautiful video by Tokyo Fashion and 1K Films about Party Baby. First of all, please watch it and subscribe to Tokyo Fashion’s channel. Seriously, go watch it!

It’s very rare that the quieter side of Harajuku is documented on film. Most videos electrify the kawaii element of the fashion with electro-pop music, bright colours and sparkles. But this time, Tokyo Fashion and 1K Films have carefully captured the nostalgic and reflective thoughts of a Harajuku designer. As Tokyo Fashion explains:

“Kuma is exactly what many people imagine that Harajuku should be – she has rainbow colored hair, loves to wear pastel clothing, and piles on lots of quirky accessories and hair bows big and small. That’s the part of Kuma that you’ve seen in photos. We would like to go beyond that and share the rest of Kuma’s story with you – the story of a real human being who spent years studying fashion in college, who has a part time job at a shop in Harajuku to pay the bills, who spends most of her free time sewing, and who dreams of her tiny DIY fashion brand Party Baby someday being loved and respected by the next generation of Harajuku kids.”- Tokyo Fashion News

I loved watching how much care Kuma put into carefully crafting her garments. It makes the items we have here with us at Electric Alice HQ all the more precious. Not only are they adorable, but each accessory contains the warmth and dreams of Kuma in Harajuku. We still have some left here. We really hope we can help Kuma spread her message about staying young at heart by providing the world with access to her brand.

And there is something you can do to help Kuma! Share Tokyo Fashion’s video on your blogs, Facebooks, Twitter…everywhere! Show all your friends and fans what Harajuku culture is all about!

Bei Badgirl, Major Kawaii Babe

Filed under: Artists, Events, General News, Plain Badass Shit — Meg @ 12:46 am

Hi Guys,

You may have heard us mention the very lovely Miss Bei Badgirl over the years for her amazing makeup artistry and cupcake baking skills. Well, not only is Bei super talented at these serious kawaii skills, she is also the most amazing artist!

Bei putting up her amazing work for Post Modernism 3 in Sydney, 2012.

Bei Badgirl is the cutest kawaii mermaid princess on tumblr, and has exhibited internationally. Her style is a sweet blend of street art and pop art, and she loves to depict kawaii babes who are cute and a little bit naughty. She does the most amazing cut out paintings and paste ups! Currently, her latest work is part of the My Little Pony Project in LA! And next week, she is jetting off to the UK to participate in Superpopmagicshow!

Sometimes, it’s hard to tell the difference between Miss Badgirl’s art and the merbabe herself! Bei loves things kawaii and bad-ass, and if she’s digging something, it’s bound to appear in her art at some point! Her tumblr is just amazing! Personally, I love Bei’s work because it shows us that it’s okay to be cute and have attitude at the same time! Plus, I use her motto “just stay cute and don’t worry!” as a mantra everyday.

Currently, Bei is based in Australia and she really wants to meet her fans in the US! And the good news is that we can help her! Bei has a good chance of winning Pedestrian.tv’s bachelorette of the year award and a trip to New York!! We think you should go vote for her! Go on, you know you want to! Voting closes in just 7 days, so get in quick!
