  Japanese designer Masaya Kushino (also the designer behind Ambush) created theses bird-themed shoes using hand-dyed feathers and a heel shaped into a bird claw. Honestly, I give the guy an A+ for effort, but a sad C for execution… only because they look like something I would’ve made in high …

Here is the latest graduate collection by Bunka Fashion Graduate University…VIVIANNO SUE, IN SEO, LEE CHINHUA, MIKI ONO. I’m a big fan of Japanese fashion, mainly because it’s usually colorful, cute,  doesn’t make sense and involves some sort of kitten-theme. My fave out of this bunch is probably the pastel brillo pads fashioned into jackets …

Japanese company  Pampshade  had the a-ha idea of putting an LED light into a loaf of real bread… because, why not? It’s also a critter magnet, since a loaf of bread sitting on your bedside table is just asking for trouble. Ask Oscar Madison. Anywho, this retails for about US $35, …

Japanese designer Jenny Fax dug deep into the 80’s for inspiration for her latest collection. Cabbage Patch Dolls were the main attraction at the show. This would’ve been epic if the Garbage Pail Kids were replaced with those prissy Cabbage Patch dolls. I used to have 2 Cabbage Patch Dolls and I …

While we’re on the subject of messed up Japanese products…. You can find these creative beddings masquerading as sweet rolls and bread at Felissimo in Japan. The question is…. do they make Cronut sleeping bags?? Because that would be perfect to sleep in a cronut sleeping bag while waiting in line for …

The Shiridashi Butt Reveal Underwear . These are Japanese-made underwear made to reveal a  trompe l’oeil butt. I guess this one is a unisex butt because it looks like it could be a man butt or lady butt. And why is that dude jogging in underwear?? Anywho, I wonder if I …

If you’re in the market for detachable collars, then check out designer Yuki Inoue‘s clear vinyl collars that can be filled with whatever your heart desires! They run about $150 and come in a variety of fillings from candy to those 70’s looking dried flowers. I personally would fill mine with cat …

If you ever happen to be in Osaka, Japan, I think the store Jajaqucya should be on the top of your list to visit. Why? Because waffle toy hats , that’s why. Two of their own lines, Nice to Meet You and Kisotengai (“cosmically crazy” in Japanese) are stocked in …

Right now, I’m trying to secure $1,300 to make a Mr. Marmar (RIP, my sweets)  doll. So far, I have $32 and 46 pennies and a half-eaten bar of snickers. I have a long way to go, I know. Anywho, thanks to a Japanese company called Clone Factory, you can …

Japanese company Tange & Nakimushi Peanuts have created postcards featuring sushi cats! This is so ridiculous, it’s genius. These cats are stealing the fishes thunder. I’m definitely okay with that since cats are more cuddly than fish. Check out their online shop with a free mobile app, a variety of postcards and …
