Carousel: Free For All

July 1, 2018

I’m stoked to start the first ever monthly carousel today! When I started blogging again, my biggest concern was that I didn’t want to stick to one single topic. Of course, concert photography is something I hold very dear to me, and the majority of any content geared towards ohnoesdani.com or my Instagram account will be music-related for that reason. From what I’m listening to lately all the way to whatever I decided to learn this time around, it’s all here!

What’s Playing.

Dead Boys – Still Snotty: Young Loud and Snotty at 40. A few weeks ago, I learned that Dead Boys are still around (technically). While the re-recorded album is a bit of old news, it’s still a great listen! ‘Dead Boys Resurrected — The 1970s American Punk Rockers Are On Tour‘ is a great read from last year.

“A supposition: The Dead Boys were America’s Sex Pistols. And very few people knew it.”

Anthony Bourdain was also a fan, so really, that’s already indication that Dead Boys are amazing. You can check out his interview in Turned out a Punk here. Speaking of, it doesn’t get more punk rock than this: Marina Lutz is officially a legend in Please Kill Me’s ‘HOW I LOST MY VIRGINITY TO STIV BATORS‘ article.

Guns N’ Roses – November Rain. Every time I’m on the road, I have my hair bands and grunge playlists ready to go. Even when I was little, my love for music went from Punk to Grunge to Post-Grunge to Alt Rock. I’ve been a bit obsessed with Guns N’ Roses’ 1986 piano demo of ‘November Rain’ that popped up on my Facebook feed a couple of days ago. As Foo Fighters’ Hawkins recently pointed out in an interview, Guns N’ Roses helped create Alt Rock. What are your thoughts on the topic? Honestly, I can agree that music with such an edge is lacking lately. There’s something about a Guns N’ Roses live that really sets the bar for bands inspired by them.

“I really realised it just being up onstage with Axl the other night – they were the first tickle if you will, into what became alternative rock. When I heard Appetite For Destruction when it first came out, it was scrappy and you knew there was danger in that band.”

Ashanti feat. Ja Rule – Leaving (Always On Time pt. 2). I’m ending this What’s Playing section by announcing my excitement for Ashanti’s and Ja Rule’s upcoming collaboration album. Murder Inc. was my life back when I was in junior high. Excited doesn’t even begin to describe my feelings right now!

 

 

Great Finds.

Wow Tapes Production. One of my goals in life is to travel internationally and be a sort of digital nomad. I’ve always wanted to explore new places and immerse myself in the culture. Wow Tapes Production’s travel videos are exactly what I need to feed my wanderlust. Their latest video project on The Phillipines is a favorite, and of course their website is easy on the eyes, modern, and overall amazing.

Grime Art. Have you heard of Grime Art? This art style is sweeping Instagram’s and Tumblr’s worlds, and Spoon Graphics did a great job at collecting 45 portrait illustrations that will make you want to learn this style ASAP. Feel like turning yourself into grime? How To Make Yourself Into A Zombie Grime!- Step By Step / RYAN HIGA Tutorial ( ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR ) is my favorite tutorial so far, but there are also alternatives to create Grime Art with Photoshop and PicsArt.

Instant Messaging Timeline. Have you ever wondered about the history of instant messaging? To me, AIM was where it started, but I hadn’t considered earlier forms that didn’t necessarily require a dial-up connection at best.

CSS Effects: Expanding Grid Menus & Glitch Effects. This was my only reaction; All I can say is click on +explore and enjoy. Also, this glitch effect is officially my favorite thing in the world.

Japanese Fashion Nostalgia. I was navigating Instagram’s discover feed and stumbled across a post with a decade-old Popteen edition. Japanese model and talent Eri Aoki had a makeup spread and she took pictures! It’s always nice to find little things like this to bring back the times I was passionate about Japanese fashion.

Please Kill Me Blog and IG. Gillian McCain and Legs McNeil didn’t stop after their ground-breaking book by the same name. Now, Please Kill Me is a web blog with an equally impressive Instagram account.

Learning This Month / On The Wishlist.

Double Exposure in Concert Photography. I’ve been playing around with creating the double exposure effect on my previous concert photographs, but I definitely plan on applying this technique in the next few gigs with Peta Pixels’ tutorial.

Digital Illustration: Adobe Illustrator and ProCreate. I’ve always struggled when it comes to drawing, but whenever I have a chance, I do what I can to practice. This month, I plan to learn more on how to improve and create digital art via Illustrator and ProCreate. Though there’s no link, here are a few stores on my wishlist that inspire me to continue drawing:

  • Youkonejo
  • Los Metzican
  • Tatoki
  • Koiikoa

Danyy here! Most times you can find me at the photo pit, other times you can find me babbling on about all things Gyaru.

Did I mention I miss O’ahu a lot? I finally made Did I mention I miss O’ahu a lot? I finally made a blog post about it!
.
Check it out for recommendations, more pictures, and if that’s not enough, head on over to my Instagram stories for a full spam of absolutely everything from that trip! 🌺 🏝 ✨ .
Have you been to O’ahu before? What did you think about it?

Waikiki sunsets are amazing. ✨ . Hawai’i has b Waikiki sunsets are amazing. ✨ .
Hawai’i has been a dream destination for me that was always slightly out of reach. This year before the travel restrictions, I was able to go for a full week while attending a design conference.
.
I’m hopeful that I’ll go back to visit soon! Though I spent most of my time within Waikiki, there’s so much that’s still left to explore. 🌺 🏝 🌊

One thing that really frustrates me is that I don’t have a makeup routine. I just kind of… go with whatever at the time and never can I actually recreate the same look I had a few days ago.
.
Since I work from home, I don’t really have chances to go out and dress up like  I used to anyway, so I’ve been living it up in zero makeup and pj’s all day every day.
.
Now that the セレブーGAL guide is out, I’ve got half a mind to order a new tracksuit too (because yes, I own a Juicy Couture tracksuit from wayyy back in the day).
.
Anyway, here’s my face from a couple of days ago. 🌺 ✨ .

Blog post UP! ↑↑ I may have gone a teeny tiny Blog post UP! ↑↑ I may have gone a teeny tiny bit overboard on this guide but the Serebu Gyaru guide is finally up and running!
.
I wrote about this on one of my previous posts and I really wanted to get this guide going with the different ways to carry Serebu GAL style alongside a few tips. ✨
.
I’m trying to keep a similar format to the original guide which is the Old School Gyaru one, so you can expect more guides in this same style too!
.
Anyway whether you love 90’s-00’s fashion or the more modern and sometimes elegant (life)styles, you’ll want to give this a read!
.
Also per request, I’m already planning out the next guide so stay excited!

Blog post UP! ↑↑ New blog post, kind of! A lot Blog post UP! ↑↑ New blog post, kind of! A lot of new followers despite my inactivity so hi there! I’m Danyy.
.
I’ve been in the gaijin gyaru community since around 2007 or so, but I’ve never been quite the participant. My favorite style technically is kurogyaru and favorite gal brand is D.I.Aspec (RIP).
.
For quite a while, I’ve been into oldschool gyaru style (late 90’s early to mid 2000s). My favorite western brands tend to be surf ones.
.
I’m a lover of knowledge, especially when it comes to gyaru subculture and fashion, and while I’m super inconsistent in posting, I really hope the information from my posts makes it worthwhile!
.
Please tell me about yourself! ↓↓

Long time no post! My new promotion happened just Long time no post! My new promotion happened just a while ago, I’ve been dedicating day and night to finding a salesperson for my business (finally found one thank goodness 💕), and this quarantine has me playing World of Warcraft in my spare time.
.
Word on the grapevine is that Japan won’t be shipping out international mail effective in a few days so I’m kinda happy I got my package today (after letting it sit for a month in the system lol). 😂 😅 .
I’m always like a kid at a candy store whenever I get stuff! I focused on getting a lot of old school memorabilia to celebrate my birthday and promotion. A couple of the items even came in their original packaging which was nice too!
.
Now that my schedule is clearing up a bit, I’ll be able to come back to blogging and respond to comments from last month lol. 😂 😭

Blog post UP! ↑↑ Still Alive: Gyaru Brands . T Blog post UP! ↑↑ Still Alive: Gyaru Brands
.
This is a… IDK-How-Many-Parts Series of all of the brands that were forgotten (at the very least by me) but are still alive! I’ve started with the monster that is @anap_official since there are quite a few sub-brands under it that are definitely worth a look!
.
You’ll find the website URL, IG account, and my opinion whether it’s worth purchasing or not. Those that are have sample products and how/why they can be used.
.
I’ll get a bit too business-like here but no brand can actually exist without support, so if you like the products and think they can help your GAL style, please support them by buying the brand(s)!

(Check out my Shopping highlights for the full pic (Check out my Shopping highlights for the full pictures) ✨ .
I spent my entire weekend shopping and honestly I’m pretty tired LOL.
.
Mercari had some pretty good items at great prices this time, so I bought a little more than I had ever done before. I’m still trying to figure out how I managed to do this but it happened!
.
I’m considering this a happy promotion x early birthday present, especially since now I have to save up for the other things in my life. ✈️
.
I’m a bit behind though, so I’m hoping to post about my last gets & coords before traveling for work again!

Blog post UP! ↑↑ What’s your idea of what GA Blog post UP! ↑↑ What’s your idea of what GAL in the future will look like?
.
ViVi recently took a crack at this with Nicole Fujita and after reading about it, I really hope that’s not the reality that Gyaru will be facing.
.
Retro is in; the 90’s primarily! I want to believe that oldschool Gyaru brands and styles will make a comeback for that reason, so I created my own version of what I think the future of GAL could look like. 🌺
