Idol Of The Week : Namie Amuro.

              ♥Idol Of The Week
                 Namie Amuro.♥

Namie Amuro is my 2nd favourite J-Pop Artist. Again, one of the very few REAL Japanese singers. She is Italian and Japanese. What a beautiful mix! She's monotone and motionless dancing machine. 

The one to have started the Kogal trend which was the beginning of Gyaru itself. She to me, honestly, is the Japanese Mariah Carey. Why? Hard to explain. 

Her hair, whether extensions or not, I LOVE. It's so long and pretty and flowy. Namie's eyes are straight killer. Super skinny but it works for her.

Although her music style has changed so much, I still like the newer stuff. But trust me, the oldies are the best. She even has a ton of dirty songs, I mean come on. My favourite line of hers is, 'I am oochie, lala poppin' coochie.' 

I do like her ballads but her voice isn't that strong. Her music just makes you want to get up and start shaking your body. Not really club beats as in EDM moreso, club music from like 2005 but, in a good way! As always, more information on my favourite song 'Funky Town' below.

And here are a few more pictures of Namie Amuro.

She's even been compared to KARA's, and my bias, Goo Hara!

Do they look alike? 

Hmm...I think they favour each other but honestly...Namie's prettier to me. But, don't get me wrong, Goo Hara is extremely gorg as well. 

So please, go check her out. The Queen Of Hip-Pop.

♥Intro.♥

              ♥♥1st Blog Post.♥♥

My blog may not look like the best beauty blog out there right now because...It's not. I'm just starting out. Brand new to the game. With not a lot of equipment and contacts. But, I hope you lovely ladies will bare with me through my journey. I don't expect to be an overnight success but my main goal is to help out as many people as I can and to me, that's all that truly matters.

But before we get to any actual beauty posts, I figured I should make an introductory post about me, my life, and my interests. ♥

My full name is Dakota Cree Cooper-Scott. Cree being my middle name. I prefer to be called Kota which is what my friends call me. I look to you guys as friends so...feel free! I'm 17 years old and I live in a small city in Ohio called Toledo. It may be cheap but never go here. It's so...sad, depressing and full of the same closed-minded people. There is one thing I like though, the diversity. I feel diversity is needed in any community and I just love to see all the different colours of people. Not many Asians though, they're hiding keke. 

I started getting into hair, makeup etc. since...I can remember really. It's always been a passion of mine. That's why I'll be enrolling into college for it Cosmetology next year. That's also around the time I will be moving ALL the way to Spokane, Washington. So, if any of you are near there, hit me up! 

I don't really like to stick to one style but I do have a style that I'm still working on and is mostly me. Gyaru.* I know there are tons of sub styles and I guess I would fit more into the Onii style the most. The more mature gyaru. Gyaru all grown up! Happie Nuts gyaru...Sayoko Ozaki inspired gyaru...It takes a lot to achieve this style, and I'm working on it, of course with tweaking it to fit my own personal style. But, I'm also a huge fan of vintage/retro styles. Circa 20's-60's. 50's is my favourite to do though. I seriously have Betty Bangs as we speak. But of course there are others I like to do, Eoljjang,** KHip-Hop etc.

Sayoko Ozaki.
As you can tell already, I'm a HUGE fan of Asian things. I got into it when I was about 8. My cousins were from Okinawa and they would always bring me back things and I got into J-Pop. It started out with MiniMoni. I bought a few of their music DVD's and they taught me numbers, basic Japanese phrases etc. Then I started getting into other J-Pop artists. REAL ones. Not all the vocaloid, Kyary stuff. Yeah, those are ok but it's not real to me. My number 1 Idol is Ayumi Hamasaki.*** Have posters, been there with her for a LONG time and she's just great. Other I like are Namie Amuro,*** BENI,*** Koda Kumi etc. 

Ayumi Hamasaki.

I'm still a fan of J-Pop but, I had gotten into K-Pop a few years ago. It all started with G-Dragon and let's just say...there's no turning back and I'm ok with that.

NOTE:*Gyaru stands for/means Gal. It is a style based in Japan and has way too many sub-styles to describe. Maybe I'll do a future post! **More commonly spelled Ulzzang. Means, best face. It is a style based in South Korea. It focuses on the face and having perfect glowing skin and a very youthful look. ***Ayumi Hamasaki, Namie Amuro and BENI are widely known faces of Gyaru. Tsubasa Masukawa is the biggest known Gyaru. Namie, is said to have started the Kogal and Gyaru trend.
