Get the Look: Goo Hara's 'Choco Chip Cookies' MV

My first "Get the Look" post after being a writer here for a year and a half! I specialize in finds so I never found the need to make these kinds of posts. However, reader allabtthatD requested for K-pop fashion finds in KARA's Goo Hara's "Choco Chip Cookies" MV and I couldn't find anything except similar-looking items so here they are!

Get the Look: SNSD's 'Party'

Hi everyone! 
Been long since I posted, and I figured since I did a Get the Look: SNSD's 'Catch Me If You Can', I should do one for SNSD's new hit, 'Party'. Unlike CMIYC, 'Party' portrays different members with their different style of clothing, so I can't generalise their whole concept into a single outfit; rather, I've picked a couple of pieces that are similar to what SNSD wore in this teaser image below.
 

Summer is here for everyone to enjoy, and while unlucky people like me living in Australia, we have to survive the cold, barren winter. Brr. But for all y'all lucky people, 'tis the great time to be partying outside in the beach, and what more than to take out all your beach gears and have fun with all your mates!

This style is really easy, and as long as you have a simple white lace/crochet top, pair it with a pair of denim shorts, you're good to go! Or you can pick out your favourite white bikini, or you can choose to stay protected from the sun (remember your sunscreen lotion!) with a pretty white lacy dress. Lace/crochet is great to wear as it's relatively light-weight and flowy, so it won't get you perspiring under the sweltering sun.

Nonetheless, whatever your selection is, I've got it covered for you!
Without further ado, here are some of my finds!
(Since this is a 'get the look', I have labeled each find with the SNSD member that inspired me. Apologies as I do not have a find for every member!)
 

 
1. Embroidered Fringe Crop Top - $22.90 - Forever 21
2. Crochet-Trimmed Cami - $14.90 - Forever 21
3. Cropped Lace Cami - $9.90 - Forever 21
4. Halter Bralet In Hand Crochet - $55.34 - ASOS
5. Monki Crochet Lace Skater Dress - $59.30 - ASOS
6. Boxy Embroidered-Crochet Top - $24.90 - Forever 21
7. Only Distressed Jean Button Up Denim Shorts - $52.00 $20.50 (Sale) - ASOS
8. Distressed High-Waist Cutoffs - $24.90 - Forever 21
(They also come in different colours!)
 
If you aren't a fan of lace/crochet patterns, no worries! Just wear your favourite white top and a pair of denim shorts, and maybe bump up your style by accessorising! 

Stacking up 'em 'arm candies' (bracelet/wristlets) and layering necklaces can give you a fun look too.
 
If you are lazy (like me) to find different bracelets to stack, just buy a set of bracelets instead! And if you don't like the feeling of multiple necklaces around your neck (it does get chunky and heavy and possibly suffocating after a while), take my advice and get a tiered necklace, not only does it look good, it lessens the load :)
 

1. Layered Faux Stone Charm Necklace - $6.90 - Forever 21

2. Faux Stone Bracelet Set - $4.90 - Forever 21

3. Charm Bracelet Set - $4.90 - Forever 21

4. Mini-Floral Head Crown - $4.90 - Forever 21

Get the Look: SNSD's 'Catch Me If You Can' MV

Hi everyone!

GG is finally back with 'Catch Me If You Can' and boy am I impressed by their dance moves! Very different to their previous songs such as Mr. Mr. where they showcased classy and sophisticated sexy, this song blows your mind with their slightly rough, slightly grimy (in a very, very good way), tough but still sexy aura and overall topping it off with grunge-ish outfits.

Digressing a bit, before I became a KWS writer I often peruse the articles of fashion finds and realised most of the finds are really expensive (think designer brands), and as a reader and avid K-fashion person I find myself wanting to imitate or get inspirations from my favourite K-pop idol (who doesn't want to look like GD, really)
But of course me and expensive don't necessarily go together, and I doubt it will for many out there. So that's when 'Get the Look' comes into play! And who doesn't love cheap but great quality clothing?
Pic Cr: modernseoul.org
This simple outfit consists of:  Black bandeau/black cropped tank  White cropped top - cut off at certain parts, smeared with a bit of grime and dirt and looking thoroughly distressed(?) Obnoxiously neon lime green fingerless gloves Dog tag Hoop Earrings Silver Buckle Belt Dark camo trousers with chains dangling at their hips  Boots --- For their 'dupes'/'lookalikes' I managed to find these:  

  1. Cotton Crop Tank Top in Black - American Apparel - $19.50 (you can buy it on lovemelrose.com) you can buy it here. 2. Cropped Crew Neck Tee in White - Forever 21 - $7.90 you can buy it here 3. Hank's Black and Silver Tone Dog Tag Necklace - Emitations - $16 you can buy it here 4. Oversized Hoop Earrings in Silver - Forever 21 - $3.90 you can buy it here 5. Faux Leather Square-Buckle Belt - Forever 21 - $5.90 you can buy it here 6. Columbia Silver Ridge Printed Pant - Zappos - $65 you can buy it here (This is pretty pricey but I chose this one because this is the most similar in pattern and colour to the one SNSD wears) or alternatively you can search for other cheaper ones here. 7. Textured Faux Leather Hiking Boots - Forever 21 - $27.80 you can buy it here
Phew that's a lot! Note: if you are thinking of putting up an outfit similar to this, you can always find alternative and cheaper clothing to the ones I mentioned above, especially for both the tops and accessories. Experiment and be creative, sister! :)
I realise most of the items are from Forever 21...Welp I'm not biased nor am I affiliated towards F21 -  I've never really shopped there before (there aren't many F21 stores in Australia and especially where I live) - but I guess this just makes it easier for you to browse through majority of the above items if you're interested in purchasing any of them.     Hope you enjoy this post! Cheers! Claire

Inspired by a Song: Emo Vampire f(x)

Okay, there are just some songs that are universally acknowledged to be badass. These songs have various effects on their listeners. For me, I want to put on a killer outfit & strut my stuff like I'm training to be one of Beyoncé's back-up dancers. One such inspiring song is f(x)'s "Dracula" from their new album, Red Light. Listen to this album on 8tracks.

If these classy kdramas were people...

...this is what they would wear. As in actually people you see.

Get the Look: Park Shin Hye in Heirs

Another post for DramaFever, sorry for the late of updates on K-world Style, but I already promised this article. So after these sentences will be directly what I wrote for Drama Fever. I hope you like it.
"Get the look of the luckiest girl from the soon to be most beloved drama of 2013 (Heirs)! The highly anticipated drama features a star studded cast including Lee Min Ho, Kim Woo Bin, Kang Min Hyuk and Park Hyung Sik. Isn't Park Shin Hye/Cha Eun Sung a lucky girl? As much as we want to, we can't be in her position. Luckily, we can dress like her! Even though it is only like in the drama.

Get the Look: The WWIB S=YZ Dress

Previously, Eliza posted a who wore it better roundup that featured the dress below by S=YZ. I took the information and expanded it for a post for Dramafever. Basically, it was just a get a look for the dress since you can't buy it anywhere.

As you can tell, it was a SNSD's Hyoyeon vs f(x)'s Victoria vs Rainbow's Jaekyung battle. Who won? Hint: my favourite did.

Get the Look: Crayon Pop and Lee Soon Shin Inspired School Outfits

A while ago, I agreed to do posts for Dramafever about kfashion. I was very late on that with school and what not. I finally finished the post and here it is. I took inspiration from a comment from a lovely reader Ashley Gonzalez about kpop inspired outfits for back to school. Sadly, I didn't finish the post fast enough for the back to school time frame. Now it is just possible outfits for school. I hope you like it and check out Dramafever News!

So here it is!

Suzy at the Airport

I know we've been doing some quick finds recently, and here's another. This is a little obvious, but Suzy looked so pretty I just had to do a post on it!

She wore Kenzo's Mustard Yellow Embroiderd Sweatshirt at Incheon airport on 130906.

Get the Look: Dara + Minzy 'DYLM'

img heavy
We've already talked about two of our favorite girls, CL and Bom, so now it's time for the cutie girl, Dara, and the dancing machine/ maknae, Minzy. Just like last time, we're focusing on a more relaxed image of 2NE1. Let's go~

Get the Look: Bom + CL 'DYLM'

img heavy

The girls of 2NE1 stuck with the casual/party theme for their latest MV. Let's take a look into their fashion.

While hang-out clothing and clubbing wear are no strangers to most people, 2NE1 looks chic even in hair-rollers...in the toilet (I see you, Dara). Ridiculous settings aside, here's how to get Bom and CL's looks.

Get the Look: Victoria in 'Rum Pum Pum Pum'

Outfit #1: sheer black button down + zebra/striped/floral skirt + black sneakers

jcpenney Button Front Tops · Allen B. Longsleeve Tops · DC Sneakers

Get the Look: Sulli in 'Rum Pum Pum Pum'

Outfit #1: graphic tank dress + unique jacket + hairpiece + open-toe wedges

Dorothy Perkins Day Dresses · Nasty Gal Blazers · Romeo & Juliet Couture Day Dresses

 Outfit #2: statement necklace + cropped jersey + cool skater skirt + socks + sneakers

Topshop Maternity Clothes · Ariat Socks · Forever 21 Tees
Finding a transparent skirt at a reasonable price is impossible. If you find one under $75, please comment.

Outfit #3: black cropped top + harness + school girl skirt + thigh-highs + black shoes with clear heel

OK, this one is technically from Mnet, but I liked it, and it's similar to what she wore in the MV.

Nasty Gal Tees · Mighty Fine Tees · Forever 21 Tees

I think the transparent pieces and the black harness are cool, but I'm not sure I would wear them.
Which outfit is your favorite?

Qupid Sneakers · Onitsuka Tiger by Asics Sneakers · Thomas Laboratories Tanks

Outfit #2: neon graphic tee and patterned leggings 

See You Monday Leggings · Carter's Boys' Tees · U-NI-TY Leggings

Outfit #3: summer sweater, distressed jean shorts, and tattoo tights

AG Adriano Goldschmied Shorts · Billabong Crewnecks & Scoopnecks · Delia's V-Neck Sweaters

This one was tough; there aren't many sweaters with holes are large as Luna's that aren't super expensive. I suggest getting a cheap sweater and making larger holes or even die-dying it yourself.

Which look of Luna's do you like the best?
