Cute Travels: Hong Kong Pt. 1

Fashion, food and fun straight from Hong Kong to you! Get ready for a huge and I mean HUGE photo dump from a quick weekend trip to Hong Kong. 

This post is all about characters, mascots and food I saw while in Hong Kong.

Bath house: Gokurakuyu

Japanese bath house, Gokurakuyu opened up a new location at Jinshajiang Road this spring. I loved it so much, I bought a member card after my first visit! This place is definitely worth checking out!

Vivienne Westwood Cafe

This spring, the mother of punk fashion, Vivienne Westwood, opened up a cafe in the K11 Art Mall. Since  my obsession with her rocking horse shoes (what's up old school lolita!) and her iconic orb necklace seen in the anime and manga, Nana, I have loved Vivienne Westwood.

Let's check out her cafe and see if it's as cool as her brand!

Cute Travels: Tokyo, Japan Pt. 1

During the Chinese New Year holiday I traveled to Japan and spent some time in Tokyo. Get ready for some too cute to handle photographs behind the page jump!

Zoo Coffee

Although China is known for its tea culture, in recent years drinking coffee has gone from being a  fashion statement to become a well devolved culture that has created hoards of coffee connoisseurs.

Shanghai's coffee scene is booming and unique cafes are popping up all over the city. 

Let's visit Zoo Coffee together!

Photo Post: Jingan Sculpture Park

Spring is here! To celebrate the season, I headed to Jing'an Sculpture Park to take photos of the beautiful flowers in bloom.

Petit Cat Cafe

Tucked away between old Shanghai houses is a cozy cafe that offers drinks, snacks, and most importantly, cats! 

Honeys Japanese Clothing company

Early this winter, in  desperate need of warm clothes, I headed over to OPA mall to check out a shop that is quickly becoming my go to store for casual cute fashion, Honeys.

Anime street

Do you love anime? 

If so, you must check out one of the best spots I've found for anime goods in Shanghai.

Along Wenmiao Road you'll find a pedestrian street that looks like you stepped into another world made just for anime fans. On Wenmia Road you'll come across mountains of figmas, anime, and idol merchandise. All of them are ridiculously cheap and begging to be bought.

Check it out!

Retro Cute at Taikang Lu

Take a trip back to Shanghai in the 1930s

 Visit  Tianzifang 

This place is a wonderland for romantics and lovers of history as nearly all the architecture is representative of the 1930s Shanghainese shikumen (lit. "Stone Warehouse Gate") housing that beautifully weaves together Chinese and Western architectural styles.
