It seems like stylists have modified all the outfits in this arcade/bar/lounge scene.

Girl's Day joined the ranks of summer 2015 comebacks with "Ring My Bell". A couple of K-pop fashion finds from their MV:
Sojin is wearing the black & white hang neck high-waist cut-out monokini
/swimsuit/bodysuit. I'm not sure if it's a knockoff of a real brand but I was only able to find it on aliexpress.com. There are several listings of this item on that website and here is one of them. I strongly suggest you shop with caution on AliExpress - it's like eBay where reputation, service, and quality depends on individual sellers. Personally I've had both hits and misses when I shopped there.

Previously we posted on KARA's Goo Hara wearing a dress from Kathleen Kye's S/S 2015 collection for her reality show "Hara ON & OFF" promotional photo.
Girl's Day's Hyeri wore the same dress when she hosted the 141230 MBC Drama Awards.
At first glance, they look similarly styled such as their hair, but there are slight differences in their appearances such as jewelry and shoes. Who do you think wore the dress better?

My friend ordered Girl's Day's "Everyday 4" mini album since it was on sale and it arrived yesterday. I was flipping through it (the pictures are sooo bright and colorful, gives off the perfect vibe of summer) and recognized these following finds. Since their title track "Darling" came out awhile ago, almost everything is sold out.
Hyeri is wearing the Pastel Colored Crop Biker Jacket from Stylenanda in mint and the Nirvana Cropped Muscle Tank from Forever 21 underneath (which was only $14 but alas sold out). The only working buylink in this post is for the jacket here.

Girl's Day came back this July with a different image than what we got used to since 'Expectation'.
In my opinion Girl's Day is a group that can pull off both the cute and the sexy concept.
On July 13, Girl's Day released their 'Darling' MV which is cute, bubbly and perfect for the summer.
In one of the scenes Minah wore the Lotus Printed Armhole Shirt from Stylenanda.
Buy it here
And sorry for the angry Minah but I couldn't make a better screencap hehe
In a recent teaser image, Girl's Day's Hyeri was shown basking in the sun in a piece from Wildfox Couture. The number nine crop top is not online anymore, but you can shop the rest of the Wildfox summer collection here.

Haha, get the title? Yeah yeah I know, another lame joke. :)
On February 12, Weekly Idol aired their Girl's Day episode.
Girl's Day are always so sexy when they are performing but in real life, they are total dorks - especially Yura. Her laugh is precious.
On the episode, Hyeri wore the Slogan sweatshirt from Low Classic's Holiday 2013 collection.
Buy it here.
Girl's Day's Minah is the new representative female MC for SBS's Inkigayo!
That aside...
That aside...
Ever since I saw Minah's sweater I fell in love with it! Just check out the awesome details it contained! I was wondering if I could find it. My happiness level went through the roof when I found it. Though at the same time, I was sad because I could never get my hands on it.

About a month ago, Girl's Day went to MBC's Weekly Idol. That show famous for random dance play and grilled meat. Girl's Day also did a sexy dance battle, can you guess who wins?
About their fashion, the typical Korean branded clothes that girl groups wear to these shows. There is an interesting on this time, on Hyeri, she proclaimed she is 'almond candy'. Isn't that wonderful people with nut allergies will can't go near her :(.
Girl's Day's leader, Sojin wears a top from ZOOC that imprints the words 'About a Girl'. It is available here for a fairly reasonable price.
Request time! We haven't had one of these in a while. As you probably know all the writers are busy with school. I'm sure you are too but thanks for coming here anyway. :)
This is a request from Roberta Braz for a pair of boots Yura has worn while walking for Lie Sang Bong at the 1st Asia Style Festival Runway Show.
Yura walked for Lie Sang Bong but sadly Lie Sang Bong doesn't have their own shoes. Just imagine the spectacular pieces their collection will have. One day maybe...one day. For now, Lie Sang Bong has used some of Jeffrey Campbell's shoes as evident on Girl's Day member, Yura. This pair of clear plastic heel wedges are the Dina style. You can buy it here.
One girl from Wa$$up wore the bejewelled version of Dina for their Wa$$up music video.
Yes, I saw the mess.
Maria :D
A couple of days ago, Girl's Day were present for an event in Shanghai.
Yey we also found out what Minah and Hyeri wore.
Minah wore the RNA531O dress from Reneevon and you can buy it here
Here is the 'who wore it better?' post that I promised you guys for so long.
Firstly, a battle between f(x)'s Krystal and SHINee's Key.
They both wore this extra large hat from PushButton's FW 2013 collection. (check the post here)
Because of the different lightning the colors of the hat seem a little bit different.
So....who wore it better?
Krystal or Key?
The second 'who wore it better' battle is between Brown Eyed Girls's Miryo (click here) and 4minute's Sohyun (click here).
They both wore this top from Steve J and Yoni P's FW 2013 collection.
Who wore it better?

| Brown Eyed Girls' 'Abracadabra' |
There's been a recent Kpop gimmick going around: girl on girl action. In a country that is far from sexually open, it's a bit surprising how often there are lesbian scenes in music videos or girl vs. girl almost-kisses in photoshoots. Of course, it's not just in Korea; even in Western countries, girl on girl action is stereotypically considered hot and steamy. I mean, how many spring break movies have girls getting drunk and making out with each other? This, in a way, causes fetishization of lesbians, and, indeed, homosexuality as a whole.
More often than not, girls in these situations act sexually obscure in order to portray a femme fatale or independent women image. I find this a bit offensive; these women only gain the upper-hand in a power dynamic with other women. It's particularly ironic in "Female President" by Girls' Day. The lyrics in the song promote a take-charge attitude for girls:
 |
| Girls' Day's 'Female President' |
We have a female president
Why so serious? What’s the problem?
If a girl kisses first, she gets arrested or what?
Come up to him and kiss him first
Now is the time, you can start first
(via kpoplyrics.net)With such a message, it would seem obvious to have one of the girls taking charge with their boyfriend, right? Instead, the video shows the girls taking charge with each other. I understand enticing a certain viewership with kinky or otherwise sexual images, but in a song about strong women, shouldn't it focus on that strength? Or at least the kind of womanly strength promoted in the song lyrics?

I can't really fight these images without knowing if the girls themselves wanted to be portrayed in such a way. And I'm not sure they are 100% bad. Sex sells. We all know what the oldest profession is, and these images of girl on girl action don't seem deeming on the surface. Perhaps I have it wrong, and they do not harm female independence at all. I mean, wasn't the kiss scene in 'Abracadabra' Ga-In's idea? She was trying to serve Korea a shocking reality check; testing the social norms as it were. And that is what being an artist is about. So I guess pushing sexual boundaries is inevitable in any artistic media.
What are your thoughts on girl on girl action in Kpop? Is it attractive? Out of place in Korea? Good for social commentary? Want me to talk about guy on guy action? Please leave a comment below.

P.S. I'm quaking in anticipation for the day when someone actually kisses instead of just looking like they are on the brink of it. What a riot that will be.

| 2pm figurines are fit |
This expectation of is ridiculous, and far from gender equal. Now, I am not saying that boy groups don't face the same standard; they do. Action figures of 2PM were released in February, and they feature semi-clad versions of the boys (Soompi). Now, I don't really understand why figurines need six-packs, but it goes along with the skin = sexy notion.
More often than not, guys constantly ripping off their shirts does not get as much negative feedback as girls in short shorts or mini-skirts. This is a double-standard and straight-up slut-shaming. I, personally, have no issues with any way someone dresses. The issue I have is that many idols would not choose these costumes for themselves.
Hello, this is the second time we are covering Girls' Day's Female President.
The first time is here in the link.

Let's start off with the most controversial outfit, yeah!
Yura's bodysuit/whatever you want to perceive it as.
Yura's piece is from Kye's S/S 2013 collection, faketokyo calls this tattoo graphic top (126$).

Here's Minah giving a wink kiss in Kye's S/S 2013 jacket dress with a Ming vase inspired textile.
The way Kye displays their outfits (right) is amazing.
It's like an invisible perfectly-portioned and still person is perfectly wearing them.

The fluffy blue blanket coat is from Kye's F/W 2013 collection. The image on the right may look familiar as 4minute has worn the designs.
