Trends: Deco-den and the art of customizing

As we have said in the previous post, Japanese people love to express themselves by personalizing their belongings. The most striking example of this trend is Deco-den, that is cellphone decoration (the term comes from the word “decoration” and “denwa”, or “decorated phone”). Over the years, this trend has spread like wildfire, becoming a true art form and extending to other handbag objects, such as game consoles, mirrors, mp3 players and anything you want to make unique in the world!

J*Fashion: Fairy Kei

So far, Kawaii Gazette dealt almost exclusively with original characters (Hello Kitty, Rilakkuma and friends). Today, we start a new section that goes slightly beyond the characters, but remains in the field of “kawaii” (or rather, of “kawaii” as an adjective). The items that end up in the Cute Lifestyle category, in fact, concerns fashion, trends, Japanese pop culture and everything that, from our point of view, is cute and deserves attention. We hope you like this new section! If you have any suggestions or ideas, you can always contact us by email or leave us a message on Facebook or Twitter 😀
