Kawaii Business Casual at SEA Conference!


Good Evening lovelies!

So this past weekend from the 21st and 22nd, I took a trip with some other students from Millikin to SEA Conference!  SEA stands for Self Employment in the Arts, so it was a bunch of young artist-entrepreneurs running around a hotel for two days!

The conference itself was so amazing, I learned so much in such a short amount of time and I made some great new friends!  I could write a whole post on the content of the conference, but it would be a novel and I'm afraid I might bore you to tears.  If you'd like to see a post about it, leave a comment and I'll get it done as soon as I can!

Although this post is really about what I was wearing during the conference.  It was only an overnight trip, and I wanted to pack light, so I had to figure out how to combine just a few core pieces together.  The dress code for the conference was business casual, and I'll admit that when I read that I was slightly panicked.  

I didn't think I really had any office drag in my wardrobe, and I wanted to make sure I was still myself and didn't just look like an office drone.  I took to my closet and I was pleasantly surprised by what I put together!

Outfit photos after the jump!

Molang Journals!

Good Evening darlings!
For this post, I'm not talking about cute fashion, but some cute character products!
Over Winter break, I was working a Christmas Party with the maid cafe I run, Kira Kira Maids, and one of the maids came in with a very cute rabbit plushie.  She left him on the table to help deocrate, and I couldn't help but wander over and give him a squeeze!  I asked her what is was and she answered:  "Oh that's Molang.  He's a Korean bunny rabbit."  


Seriously.  Could you resist squeezing him?  

After the party I decided to do a little research.  I found a Facebook Page for Molang, and on the page it had this quote:

"Molang is a small and lovable animal.

He’s very curious and a big dreamer.
Molang loves to have fun and to make/give/blow? kisses.
But what he loves most is to eat strawberries.

As soon as Molang catches a whiff of this fruit,

its cheeks turn a little pinker and its eyes shine a little brighter."

Most of the cute characters I knew with different merchandise were either from Sanrio or San-x, so it was very cool to find another character to enjoy!  I'm not sure what company designs him, so if anyone knows please let me know and I'll update this post!
