This month's issue of
VOGUE JAPAN has a little booklet about 'DIGITAL LIFE'and you can find me in here! (^o^) /
Hello readers! You're probably wondering what this is all about...so here's my story..hehe I never considered myself a serious blogger until now. I basically started a photo blog almost 3.5 years ago documenting where I was partying every night in TOKYO & friends I ran into at those times because 2 friends who didn’t live in Japan (Errolson & Stephen) wanted to keep up with what I was up to everyday. I guess I was a little over-active, and had attended almost every single party that my friends (who weren’t all in the same scene) invited me to everyday, with my record being 12..in one night. hehe I attended not only club events, but also fashion events and reception launch parties. Over the years, as the influence of SNS started to grow, so did the influence of my so called ‘blog’. I am happy to say, that all my efforts of just being me and documenting what I have been doing everyday has landed me an opportunity to work with VOGUE JAPAN in a project called “VOGUE meets ISETAN!” with the theme being ISETAN JAPAN SENSES "FASHION INTERACTIVE PEOPLE." I wish that I could describe this project as well as fellow blogger & window displayer
MISHA JANETTE..but I can't compete so you here are more details (in English & Japanese) about this project:
ASK MISHA! hehe This project launches next month (April 6th-19th), where I am honored to be one out of 12 bloggers to participate in coordinating my own WINDOW DISPLAY at
Shinjuku ISETAN! I got to visit the pressroom of my favorite accessory brand called
‘Q-POT’ and coordinated my own accessories!
Q-POT is a Japanese accessory brand (which you can find in ISETAN) that is SUPER cute and you feel as if you are in a fantasy when you visit the store. Visiting the press room was just as amazing!! Here's a little sneak peek of my experience...hehe
today’s mission was to make my own hamburger necklace!
basically, you can choose to put meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pineapple, etc.. so much fun!
then you slide the pieces through the necklace
it was a little difficult at first
but i got the hang of it after adding the cheese. hehe
then i realized the egg was too bulky..
i contemplated making it a double cheeseburger.......
but then it looked tooo big!!! but it’s SOOOOO CUTE RIGHT?!!?!
so then I thought about what kind of burger I would eat..so I took the bacon out..HEHE
and VOILA! I made my girly hawaiian burger necklace! but she was kind of lonely so i made another one after this....
What do you think I made?!
CHECK BACK SOON TO SEE THE FINAL PRODUCT!!!!
and don't forget to check out my show window between 4/6-4/19!!

I interviewed Francis. He was my first, so I was super nervous..lol I didn't know how to approach him so I offered him some wasabi kitkat. I will admit, I'm not an experienced journalist which is why I was so nervous to approach any of the winners. Anyway, for some reason, Francis's profile really stood out to me..I think he reminded me of someone..or he just has that hapa look that is familiar to me since he looked like most of the half models in tokyo. yea that must be it..apparently he is an aspiring musician who is trying to make music and wants to participate in the Red Bull Academy. Good Luck!
I interviewed KIKO next. OMG kiko is AWESOME! I think out of all the winners that I spoke to, I feel the most connected with him. Maybe because he is closer to my age!? He is very spiritual and was a member on SURVIVOR! He seems like such a free spirit and it was very easy to talk to him.
My next interviewee was Sarah D. The youngest of the bunch. She is only 14! A very young soul. I'm hoping that winning this competition doesn't change her and that she will continue to be pure and friendly to everyone.
Tereza and Patricia. These 2 were like best friends. I didn't interview but watched them enjoy themselves in their Benetton clothes.
David 'Asian Pride!' Sheldrick. David's shoot reminded me of something that you would see in Warp Magazine in Tokyo or something very similar to the group Big Bang. He was very energetic and seemed like he was having a lot of fun. The least camera shy of the 19 contestants I would say. The only thing I didn't like was the 'asian pride' in his name!! We don't say that anymore right?!
how do you wear it?!
like this?! hehe
these 2 were unseparable!
My favorite: Magali
Maki x Shon were the fastest stylists ever!
thank you for everything!!!!!!!!
