When I was younger I read a lot of graphic novels and almost convinced myself I was Japanese (this is a bit of an exaggeration but my fascination was verging on weird). One of my favourite comics was Urusei Yatsura so much so that smallest Jones has taken her name from one of the characters. Just for info there is also a great band with the same name...
Chantel from Pony Chops seems to like Kawaii characters, and fashion as much as me, and she has brilliantly combined the two. I met Chantel at last years Handmade & Vintage Festive Market in Lancaster .. her stall was beautiful and really refreshing. Take a look at her shoes, she has an online shop here and a fabulous blog here ...
Some other Kawaii thing here on Etsy .. a soot sprite brooch by Jasmin Bauer, owner of A couple of smiles. I am totally into shrink plastic at the moment .. I have just uploaded a few of my own brooches to the shop.
Completely not Kawaii in anyway but would go fabulously with a pair of Pony Chops hand painted shoes .. great outfit from Cos below.
