G-Dragon loves COUTURE

Hello lovely readers, as I went through the request page I came upon a request for G-Dragon's accessories that he wore at the 2012 MAMA Awards. Let's begin:

Starting off with his hat. It's from Stampd LA thanks to our lovely reader for the correction. Well, you can get a similar style here for $52.

As for the sunglasses, he's wearing Versace eyewear. This piece had also been updated, but it's very similar in style and shape except the ones that GD wore had solely a Medusa head, while the updated version have the full medallion and the Medusa head . You can get them here for $230.

Last but not least, he was also wearing a Chanel Pre-Fall 2012 necklace from the Paris/ Bombay collection. Sorry guys, unfortunately this necklace no longer in store.

Thanks for the request, See you soon!

XOXO,

                   ~KD

Hot or Not: April Magazine Edition

Hi guys, this is a new feature brought to you by KD and Lauren. We're going to share our opinions on Kpop Fashion from the week. Welcome to the April magazine edition :).

HOT:

1. G-Dragon for Allure 

Lauren: Here's a busy background done right. GD looks great in a muscle tank. And while I'm not a fan of the mass of necklace he has going on, it works. I really love the pink and blue feather in his hair, and I think the overall "whiteness" of his look does well against the rich scenery. Contrast and harmony ring key in this great shot from Allure.

KD: Overall, this shot is amazing. I think he looks amazing. Good Job, Allure, you sure know how to make girls drools over GD.

2. Miss A's Fei in 1st Look Magazine

Lauren: This picture gets an 'A' from me. Fei looks stunning in subtle way. The stylists stuck to warm colors in the clothing (and meat), which contrasted the metallic, cool feeling of the scene. There is nice balance in the picture and enough visual interest that the looker does not get bored, but not too much that to focus is drawn away from Fei. I especially appreciate her headband and her makeup. Good job, First Look.

KD: Fei looks amazing, the choice of clothing fits her perfectly, although she reminds of a mom cooking. I’m loving her on Master Chef Korea Celebrity, have you watch it yet?

3. Sistar19 for CeCi Magazine

Lauren: Let it be know that good setup and nice photography go a long way in selling a product! I really love this shot. I say I would not have put the retro hair on the girls, but the twinsies look is working with the over-sized chair and table set. This is a shot done right. My favorite fashion piece has to be Hyorin's skirt, but I also like their shoes. Overall, this is clean and stylish. 10/10 for CeCi.

KD: Sistar19, nothing much to say. I’m loving the twin concept. One word, "GORGEOUS"!

NOT:

1. Lee Som for Vogue Girl

Lauren: Lee Som is really very pretty, but I couldn't see any of her natural charm in this awful picture. The poor girl was styled in a yellow on yellow, suede, track-suit-with-shorts-as-the-bottoms combination that was just not working. Not even to mention my loathing for most things Juicy Couture (say hello to the gross tangerine tee shirt). I mean, really, who even wears an athletic tee in a fashion shoot?! The only saving graces this shot has is good makeup and a nice, albeit distracting, scenery. Sorry, Vogue Girl, I'm just not feeling it.

KD: I’m just not feeling it, there’s too much going on. Not loving the look.

2. CL for i-D (a British Magazine)

Lauren: CL is my bias in 2ne1, but I'll be the first to admit that her (and Jeremy Scott's) fashion sense is not always on par with what I think is attractive. We see this no better than in the picture at right. In all overall fuzzy suit (with a tail!!), CL reminds me of Big Bird from Sesame St. rather than a fashion icon. Likewise, her skiing (?) outfit on the far right does not pair well with the cap, which is in a slightly lighter orange, and her shoes, which are some sort of heel and sneaker Frankenstein. I only hope that as Jeremy's "muse", CL can steer him back on the path of good fashion, featuring license plate shoes and cute skirts, and away from this over-dramatic train wreck.

KD: Let just say, CL looks like a bigfoot in the first pic. I love CL, but this sometime her fashion choices don’t really resonate with me. She’s like the GAGA of Kpop. The second picture looks as if a paint machine explode on her. Sorry Jeremy Scott, but these looks are just not my cup of tea.

Want to see more? Never want to see this again?

Signing off,
Lauren & KD

G-Dragon & CL: KYE 2013 F/W Seoul Fashion Week

Hello everyone, this is Lyn, I'm a new writer and Tumblr contributor here at K-world Style.  As an avid reader of the site, it's definitely an honour to be part of it. I hope you'll all take care of me!:)

Without further ado, here are my finds. 

YG's reigning Fashion King and Queen made an appearance at Seoul Fashion Week.

2NE1's leader CL wore Alexander Wang's Leather Eyelet Top at the show. Currently there are no buy links for this.

Bigbang's G-Dragon wore Thom Browne's Black and White Glenplaid Classic Suit. 

You may purchase it here for $2790.00 USD.

G-Rainbow

What is this? You guessed it...a new tip

Seriously thank you guys for the tips, you are amazing...we really appreciate it.

Hopefully I will post all the tips that you guys sent :D

THANK YOU ALIKA for the tip :D

ALIKA sent us a tip regarding G-DRAGON's rainbow jacket from his 'Crayon' MV.

It's from Alex Mattsson's Divine Resonance SS 2012 collection.

Army G-Dragon

G-Dragon is back for a short notice! I have no idea what he is doing, other than holding concerts with the rest of Big Bang. 

His official Facebook was updated with two new pictures, one of them caught my eye with a find. 

This jacket is from Versace. I had a hard time finding pictures of it actually :S Army jackets and coats is a trend we'll see a lot this fall I think :)

My buy link is sold out, but here is a link to Polyvore.

Got your CRAYON already?

Actually somebody asked us on our Facebook page (yes we have such! Go like it and join our random games! :D) to do G-Dragon's 'CRAYON' and the accessories used in the MV. I wasn't really planing on doing the accessories used in this MV but since I already planed on posting some of the clothes from his MV, I thought "oh nevermind ~ I'll do the accessories if it makes a reader happy". That's how nice I am ;) and that comment just destroyed it all again xD

Doing these finds was incredibly easy! I was kinda surprised actually. Normally YG Entertainment has some really creative stylists who makes their own accessories and T-shirts or get custom made stuff. But not only was all of these accesorries, which is like 85% of all accessories used in this MV, bought/borrowed from a company - these were all from the SAME brand! o__o

Oh well...for people who doesn't actually 'work' with fashion and K-pop every day, this might still be a rather big thing xD 

Click 'Read more' to see all the rest ~

Why so serious?

These guys got their crayons! What about you? Got your CRAYON already? :P 

If you haven't realized by now, then go watch G-Dragon's new MV right now! this is a post all about Big Bang's G-Dragon and his new solo song "CRAYON" :D 

I personally adore GD a lot for his unique musical style, his performances and most of all his creativity! 

There are SO many finds in this MV that I've decided to separate it into two posts! 

Yup, G-Dragon, you did it again. Made me do several posts on one single MV. I must accept defeat. or is it him who must accept defeat? hehe ~ technically he's the one who wore items I found, so he's the loser, right? xD 

Lets get this started because no matter how many times GD asks "why so serious?" I must get to the point of this post some time, right? ^__^ 

Click 'read more' ~ I know you want it!

GD is one of a kind with many finds: The left-overs edition

Finally my last post with 'One of a Kind' finds! :D 

This is the last post with finds from G-dragon's newest solo comeback, 'One of a Kind'! Please check out the other posts if you haven't seen them yet ~

This last post is finds of different brands, which I have found in the MV. 

I was quite surprised to see G-dragon wear this, but since I'm starting to like this brand a lot, I was kinda thrilled :) 

This sweater is from a brand called Wildfox Couture and is called Lennon Sparkly Skeleton Sweater - you can get this (and other Wildfox items) here on Dolls Kill for 176$

And hey, seriously, there was the most cuddly bear cub in this MV!! Just look at it! :D

On to next find! Hahaha don't get too distracted! :P

In one scene G-dragon is wearing Converse All Stars Hi Top Plaid sneakers in the colourway red. I could only find a picture of the blue/purple colourway. I don't have a buy link for these.

In the end fellow Big Bang member Taeyang had a surprise cameo appearance. I was a bit confused about it, but it was pretty nice somehow. Especially considering how this screen cap makes it look like he is dancing SNSD's Gee. 

Taeyang is wearing a stylist modified version of Givenchy's newest edition of their almost iconic Rottweiler T-shirt. You can get it here for 300$

EDIT: Look what I just found in the ladies' collection from Givenchy ~

It's the Rottweiler Crystal Accent Sweater (why call this a sweater, Givenchy? It's obviously a T-shirt)

You can get it here for 865$

And now there's only one thing I want to say. 

A couple of days ago somebody said in our chatbox that we're not good enough. Well, I've been working almost non-stop on finds for almost 10 hours...There are so many posts waiting to be posted, which all I have written today. If working for 10 hours without getting one single penny or anything else, if that's "not good enough" then I have no idea what good enough is! I just want to remind all our readers that we're doing this for fun and that we do not get paid >_< And we also have our separate lives going on with school and work and families...So please, if you do get annoyed by us not posting billions of posts every single day, then think twice before you say that we're not good enough because it kinda hurts when people tell us that we're not good enough even though we all put SO much hard work into running K-worldstyle.

And lastly; Thank you SO MUCH for your support <3

GD is one of a kind with many finds: Chanel Edition

I'm going on with the G-dragon finds! :D 

This time, I'll go through the Chanel items used in his newest MV 'One of a Kind'. Check my previous post for many Chrome Hearts finds from the same MV.

This is the most odd finds I'll probably EVER do! Seriously...Tennis equipment? xD G-dragon, you're so original ~ (no sarcasm intended)

In his "I crash everything with my tennis-skills" scene, G-dragon wore a whole lotta Chanel! First thing that caught my eye was the Camillia Brooch. Second thing was the sweatbands, which I couldn't find a picture of in the correct version. I only found pictures of the lace wristbands, but it's better than nothing I guess. 

Lastly there's his tennis equipment. The racket is retro with wood effect and the tennis ball is just a set of tennis balls with the Chanel signature on it. 

If it wasn't because I adore Chanel a lot I would have thought these items was just knock-offs, but they're real Chanel items! :)

Pretty sure the T-shirt and shoes are from Chanel also, but couldn't find either anywhere.

Lastly there's these adorable black and white suspenders, also from Chanel. This version is hard to find because it appears to be a vintage version, but you can get the ordinary black and white version from time to time on Ebay and likely sites.

GD is one of a kind with many finds: Chrome Hearts Edition

The title almost rhymes...Almost haha xD
G-Dragon is back with a solo-song! His new song is called 'One of a Kind' and was just released earlier today! My Photoshop is OVERFLOWING with pictures of finds from this MV. I swear!
Lets just get over with it, I've been working on finds since noon and it's 9PM at my place now...Yeah I'm pretty tired of looking at clothes for today hahaha.

First of, let's just say there's A LOT of Chrome Hearts in this MV. I'll start with the belt.

From Chrome Hearts. Available here at Rakuten for a little more than 206,000 yen

Next up is this tank top. It's a modified T-shirt from Chrome Hearts. The stylists cut off the sleeves transforming it from a T-shirt to a tank top.

Get it here at Chrome Hearts' own online store for 135.99$ on sale!

Lastly there's a whole bunch of jewelry and accessories! Rings and necklaces and I don't know what not in abundance!! xD 

These are only the accessories I was 100% sure about! there's some rings I was in doubt about (the gold rings among some necklaces I couldn't see clearly enough). The watch is from Chrome Hearts feat. Rolex and you can get this rather pricey watch here for 850,000 yen.

The leather bracelet was a bit tricky since the flowers (yes, they're called flowers!) are different. But maybe GD is wearing a more recent edition I don't know about or he got a custom made bracelet from Chrome Hearts - both options highly possible. Anyways you can get Chrome Hearts' leather bracelet here for 225.99$

The small/thin rings are, not surprisingly, also from Chrome Hearts. GD is wearing two of them and they're called Scroll Band Rings and is priced at 165.99$

Lastly there's the Silver Bangles, also from Chrome Hearts. I don't have a buy link for these.

ATTENTION: 

This have been pointed out a couple of times to me, and honestly I was slightly aware of it when I made this post. Chrome Hearts does not have an official online store! The products in the english links might be fake. They might be real also, but they're NOT from the official store since Chrome Hearts only have physical stores. In case these products are indeed fake, I do not in ANY way encourage you to buy them - it's a rip off of others' hard work! 

I apologize the confusion and slight error.

Pop muscles

Tip from Olivia

Told you I was catching up on those tips. :)

At the Shanghai Alive tour, Big Bang's G-dragon wore Boy London's Andy Warhol photographic tee.

I don't have a buylink that was valid anymore. There used to be one on urban outfitters. Comment if you have a buylink!

Gerlan Dragon

I'm pretty sure YG-fan blogs have already posted on this, so sorry for this more or less lame find...
Big Bang's Facebook fanpage uploaded a picture of G-Dragon in the studio a few days ago ~ This is a pretty obvious find, considering that the brand name stands on the shirt with huge letters hahaha.
Gonna post it anyways :P

This is Gerlan Jeans t-shirt is quite a classic, almost a signature shirt for the brand. If you're dying to get it, I have a sold out link right here!

K-Pop goes MCM Craaaaazy

a few days back soompi has released an article about a viral trend in Kpop's airport fashion scene. and that can be summed up in 3 letters....M-C-M. For the past few months we've seen idols, stars and singers walk the wide runway of the airport donning what seems to be a simple leather backpack of bright colors with studs and the MCM emblem would actually cost you a minimum of 400 USD supposing you decide to shell out money for one.

here SOOMPI'S ARTICLE

(I'll post them by type of back pack since some artist have the same model)

Posted on Goo Hara before.

MCM X PHENOMENON CAPSULE COLLECTION

Rain still proved himself as the kind of swagger by sporting this limited edition leopard print bag from MCM X PHENOMENON'S SS2011 Capsule Collection

MCM STARK VISETOS BACKPACK(COGNAC)

Again....rain has this bag sharing his slice of MCM heaven is Beast's HyunSeung and the glorious back of JYJ's YooChun.

EDIT BY Koko: Buy here.

MCM STARK VISETOS BACKPACK RED

Another Rain owned bag..... although he's not alone in picking red as the type that suits my taste. Rain shares the MCM Red ownership with fellow fashionistas such as GD and Beast's HyunSeung and his young ninja Assasin from J Tune, Lee Joon.

EDIT BY Koko: Buy here.

MCM SS2011 STARK VISETOS BACKPACK IN BEIGE

During the launch of MCM's SS2011 line in Seoul a few months back, TVXQ's YunHo was seen sporting the said backpack for the photoups. Maybe he'd thought this bag's good for keeps as he's been seen with this bag almost everywhere.

MCM TETRIS BACKPACK

If it ain't limited it ain't good enough.....TVXQ's ChangMin proved he's now a chic man by carrying this limited edition MCM Backpack. So limited that i am still racking my brains and Google on a buy site for this.

MCM STARK VISETOS IVORY

SNSD's YoonA, CN Blue's YongHwa and SJM's ZhouMi are more on the lighter side of things as they prefer carrying this white piece of MCM goodness.

MCM X PATRICIA FIELD BACKPACK

Well if it isn't our favorite Park siblings in the K-Pop industry. Seriously who's not in love with Dara and CheonDoong's bond? They have the cutest and strongest sibling love for each other that they even manifest it through their choice of MCM goods. CheonDoong and Dara (with the inclusion of Kim Jun in one photo...kkk) are both seen with their MCM X PATRICIA FIELD BACKPACK... Dara's in olive green while CheonDoong has the blue model.

MCM X CRAIG REDMAN PROJECT BACKPACK

Another Special Ed MCM backpack on one of our resident fashionistas....Beast's Junhyung carried this backpack like a tote bag on their way to Japan for the Music Bank Concert in Tokyo.

MCM STARK VISETO BACKPACK IN BLUE

T-ara's resident cutie pie JiYeon looked like a school sans the lunchbox while carrying this piece on the way to Japan.

MCM ANGEL VISETOS BACKPACK IN BLUE

EDIT BY Koko: Buy here.

Secret's Zinger matched the cuteness of her MCM ANGEL VISETOS BACKPACK with her full bangs and baby face.

well there...i'm still a bit lazy to attach the buy links. mainly because i am alternately doing this and reviewing for my upcoming Korean Proficiency Exam (TOPIK) next month. in a matter of days, i'll be adding other artists and their non backpack MCM Stuff.

till next time:)

don't love charlie, love me :'(

Stupid Charlie whoever you are...then again it could go both ways...Charlie could be a man or a woman so...Yunho, Kikwang and/or G-Dragon could be homosexual.

Star light, star bright,

The first star I see tonight;

I wish I may, I wish I might,

Le me be Charlie tonight

 :P Joking of course. 

But look! Yunho, Kikwang and G-Dragon all love Charlie since they displayed it proudly on their clothing. So the following order of wearing was Yunho, G-Dragon and now recently Kikwang. Yunho wore it to an event while both G-D and Kikwang wore it to music shows. I could not find the blouse button up version, only the tee version. This is by John Galliano called I Love Charlie Tee. Available here for 248$. 

Side note, John Galliano is still getting some love even after the whole hitler thing. 

Another side note, how many kpop fashion find sites are there now? O_o If anyone knows please leave a comment and a link please :D

Maria :D

Dara is throwin' on her Cheap Monday Louboutins!

Rawr.

Easy post, just to let you guys know...



Dara (2ne1) Recently posted a picture on her me2day sporting Cheap Monday's Zip Low Jeans in See Through, as a fashion statement!

Not only that, but she backed up her jeans with sneakers from Louboutin (I'm S/S 2011 collection if I'm not mistaken).

I have a link for the Jeans, but I don't have any for the shoes. If you have one, please comment below!

--Koko

P.S. G-Dragon wore these shoes too before, but I don't remember where and I don't have the picture... So... Yeah. Double find.

Get the Look G-Dragon "Big Bang is Back"

Hey guys, I don't know about you, but I am super excited because Big Bang came back on the 24th :). whoop whoop!


So down to business, their style is a bit unorthodox, and so I'm going to try to make a more realistic version of their clothes for everyone out there! (I'll be doing it for the ladies, but if there are any guys who want some pointers just comment and I'll be happy to help.)


To start off with here's  fashionista GD :).

Shirt: Chloe Leopard-print shantung silk blouse buy link or for a less steep price try something like link
Belt: Asos pink boyfriend belt around $14 buy link

Tari tipped us on what G-Dragon of Big Bang wore on one of the promo pics(?) for Beautiful Hangover. Look! She even cropped the pictures and combined them together! Thank you. So GD wore a Bernhard Willhelm Long Tank Top. This piece of clothing can be purchased for 300 Euros at the V-Store. Good to know Big Bang is kinda back with their European fashion flare. :)

A Big Bang find!

Hai everyone, it's Nikki again!
EDIT: HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!! (to those celebrating today :P) Eat lots!!!
And everyone be careful for the vicious H1N1!!! There were 3 celebrities in Korea that went down with the Swine Flu yesterday (Thunder from MBLAQ, Kim Joon and Taemin from SHINee.... Get well soon!!!)

I was playing around YouTube (it's my life...) and found a clip of Big Bang beatboxing, rapping, singing and dancing on a Japanese TV show called Gayo (I think? I didn't pay too much attention to details...
Here's the video if you want to see it.)
Anyway, I noticed that all the boys were wearing the same zipup hoodies.


(sorry for the low quality picture..... it's a screen cap from YouTube...)

I found that these matching hoodies are from Rocstar 2008 Spring/Summer Collection by Rocstar. It's a collaboration between Rocstar and Revolver.



I found a Japanese blog (?) about it, and if you really want these hoodies, I bet you can contact them.
Here's the blog entry
And their email address: bigolstore@star-j.com

It says they sell the turquoise and the purple hoodies for ￥18,690 which is about $190...

By the way if you wanted to know..

Taeyang: Purple
G-Dragon: Red
T.O.P: Turquoise
Daesung: Green
Seungri: Orange
