***chubby bunny***

I love Chubby Bunny bows. Sooo super kawaii! And an official collaboration with Hello Kitty too. ^_^

Shop Chubby Bunny online here.

HK Nugeisha

I adore Hello Kitty's brand new range Nugeisha. It's Kitty-chan as we know and love her, but with a traditional geisha inspired look. Super kawaii!

Visit the Sanrio website to see the full range of goodies. 

Best Trainers Ever

I don't tend to do trainers, but for these Fatima Kitty trainers by UBIQ, I might just have to. 

Available in white, pink, black and leopard print. I am seriously lusting after these right now. I just can't quite decide which I like best. If only I could have them all!

I Heart JapanLA

What a kawaii and all round awesome shop JapanLA is! Described as a unique pop culture shop, it stocks cute products inspired by Japanese and L.A. pop culture. The shop itself is located on Melrose Avenue, L.A., and carries a wide range of brands, as well as having a gallery area showcasing art from all over the world.

Of course, I wouldn't know anything about JapanLA if it wasn't for their website. Having little money to spend on pretty things, I've only browsed the site, though they do deliver internationally if I ever wanted to splash out.

I'm almost certain we have nothing quite like it in the UK. I can't think of any shops, online or otherwise, that have such an immense product range. JapanLA stocks clothes, jewellery, CDs, books, DVDs, art, beauty products, toys and much more besides. UK kawaii store artbox comes close, but just doesn't have the same range or amount.

There's just far too many bits and pieces I want to show you all, for just one blog post. So, over the next few days I'm going to share a selection of JapanLA items in individual mini-posts. Today is just an introduction!

Aesthetically Pleasing

I'm into aesthetics. I like things that are pleasing to the eye. My eye that is. So I'm a fan of art. Art in general and certain specific styles of art. One of those styles would be, you've guessed it, kawaii.

Here's just a little taste of some of the kawaii art that's out there. I'd give almost anything to be as talented as these beautifully creative and inspiring artists.
