Sayoko Ozaki Is Pregnant !!

My favourite Japanese model is pregnant and has been for 9 months!

She looks so healthy and her abangaz look so amazing!

I'm used to her being a striking stick.

I'm so mad I'm so late.

I wonder what it is! Won't be long now.

Good for her!

Fig&Viper Lowkey Shutting Down!?!

Fig&Viper by the fabulous queen Alisa Ueno is one of my favourite Japanese Gyaru brands next to Cocolulu & d.i.a.

I was recently browsing through the amazingly informative The Universal Dolls blog and Ive just noticed a few tidbits here and there mentioning a probable fall of Fig.

Im honestly shocked because its a fairl new brand especially compared to the others and without it there would be no such thing as NeoGal.

Is it expensive?

Yes.

But what Japanese label isnt.

Although.

Considering the style is famously seen on Tumblr and called so many things like soft grunge, pastel goth whatever the fuck, you think itd be such a hit.

Wrong...?

Because of this styles huge popularity you can get these basic aesthetic pieces from better known expensive brands like Unif, or at extremely cheaper prices.

She hasnt been advertising it the best no, but even Ive been disappointed with a lot of pieces lately because it looks like expensive dupes of shit Ive seen before.

Still though.

I love the brand and the creator.

Looking at the new BAD brand, it looks great! Miss Sayoko Ozaki models for it as well. I personally havent looked deeper into the clothing or prices but it might not be helping Fig much at all. Its also kind of irritating that the creator DJ Amo DJs at the same residency that Alisa does a lot...has me thinking.

Im hurt and will dig deeper because but Im also excited to see the new cntributors to the NeoGal movement.

♥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.
