Late find but better now than never.

(click to enlarge)

Kara's Super Girl album cover featured pieces from Kaal E'Suktae's S/S 2011 collection. Gyuri sported a dress, Seungyeon wore a different dress, and Nicole wore designed white pants.

I know there are other obvious pieces, but these are the good images that I can find.

I have no buylinks, do you? Comment below!

The image is wonky, I'm sorry. Forgive me!

Hey guys. Why is it that I always get sick when my scheduled posts end... *sigh* I will make more tomorrow.

On the way to the Kpop Festival in Tokyo at Incheon Airport, DBSK's Changmin wore Galliano's Printed Cartoon Galliano Tee in white from their F/W 2011 collection.

I don't have a buylink and I'm not going to find one because I have a pulsating headache. Therefore, please comment with a buylink if you have one!

I hate buylinks

2012-01-20T12:00:00.001-05:00

Tip from Eliza

It took me so long to find this buylink. I surfed though like, 100 pages of interwebs.

(click to enlarge)

On the way to the Kpop Festival in Tokyo at Incheon Airport, 2pm's Chansung wore BAPE's milo cosmos flag Tee from their S/S 2011 collection.

Here is the buylink. I worked hard for it.

Yeah, so I said I know like, everything from this photoshoot.

I really wasn't kidding.

Here's another shot.

(click to enlarge)

In Shinee's Taemin and Minhos' shoot for Vogue Korea, Minho sported Bernhard Willhelm's Faux Fur Zip Jacket in Beige from the F/W 2011 collection along with Walter Van Beirendock's Eyes Sweat Pants.

You can get the jacket here and the pants here.

2012-01-18T12:00:00.000-05:00

Tip from Eliza

So late. So so so so late. (Eliza, I'm going to have to make you a new banner soon).

I really really really need to catch up on tips.

Here's one from Eliza, as per always.

(click to enlarge)

On the way to the Kpop Festival in Tokyo at Incheon Airport, Beast's Dongwoon wore Givenchy's Logo Tee from F/W 2011 (I think, correct me if I'm wrong).

Abort mission to planet KTZ

2012-01-17T12:00:00.000-05:00

Uh. I have no idea why that title is so ridiculous, but I'm not changing it.

I could post almost every single article of clothing from this photoshoot, so I think I will.

(click to enlarge)

In Shinee's Taemin and Minhos' spread for Vogue Korea, Taemin dressed up as a robot with KTZ's Joan Boy Jacket from their F/W 2011 collection.

The headpiece is by Ha Sang Baek I believe.

You can get the jacket here.

GAH! Hee...

2012-01-16T12:00:00.001-05:00

Kahi Kahi!

Full outfit. Oh yeah.

(click to enlarge)

At the SBS Gayo Daejun (2011), After School's Kahi wore Fleamadonna's Fuzzy Rider Jacket from their F/W 2011 collection, American Apparel's Disco Rider Pant in Black, and Joyrich's Swish Roll Up Tee in Leopard.

Krystal wore the jacket too! Plus... EVERYBODY (really, EVERYBODY) has worn the pants, like here and here.

You can get the tee here and the pants here.

I don't have a link for the jacket, you can see the lookbook here. Comment if you have a buylink!

COMMENT PLEASE!

Trouble maker~

(click to enlarge)

Troublemaker's JS (AKA B2st/Beast's HyunSeung) wore Alexander McQueen's Black/Ivory Skull Pashmina scarf in Troublemaker's promo pics.

You can get it here (for a buttload of cash).

This scarf is one of his signature pieces. To be honest, I wasn't sure which scarf it was, then I think I saw fringies on the end so I went with the Pashmina. Seems right. Actually, I'm pretty sure I'm right.

Daily posts. Oh yeah. COMMENT! DO IT!

I promised EXO... So here is EXO!

I technically already found it, but I wouldn't have posted it if Eliza hadn't sent a tip so...

Tip from Eliza

Let's go!

(click to enlarge)

EXO's Kai wore Star Styling's Rounds Shirt from their S/S 2011 Collection and their Shoulder Jacket from their F/W 2010/2011 Collection in his 4th teaser.

To be honest I don't think the jacket is exact, looks like the sparkles go further down, but that's the only zip up hoodie on their site and even Star Styling says it's this jacket, so I'll take their word.

Hoodie purchase here and shirt here.

Sorry for two days of Star Styling in a row. I just really like Star Styling and wanted to get these babies up first.

I give in

2012-01-13T12:00:00.000-05:00

Okay guys. In the duration of a couple hours I got lots of requests to go through with the daily posts. So here I go!

NEW YEARS RESOLUTION (a little late albeit, but still): POST ON KWORLDSTYLE EVERY DAY.

I initiate this with a scheduled post :) My favorite girlgroup!

(click to enlarge)

T-ara's Eunjung wore Star Styling's Triangle Vest from their F/W 2011/2012 collection at T-ara's comeback stage for Lovey Dovey on Music Core on January 7th (2012).

Stylists altered the sleeves on all the girls shirts (except for a few). Congrats to the CCM stylists for delving a little outside of their safety zone! I rarely see T-ara in anything non-korean.

You can pick it up here.

As for upcoming posts. I have so many I want to cry. EXO tomorrow. Lots of troublemaker. More T-ara. Uh, what else... f(x) I think. Some really late Shinee and some really late SNSD.

Do you know how you can keep me going? COMMENT ON FACEBOOK! COMMENT ON POSTS! I like to see that people actually read what I put effort into.

Bring the Beat Back

2012-01-12T16:21:00.004-05:00

I promised some of you guys that I would put some effort into EXO finds...

OH MY GOD IMMA SLAY SOME PEOPLE IF THEY'RE ALL THIS HARD TO FIND

(click to enlarge)

EXO's Lu Han wore H&M's I Am Awesome T-Shirt in EXO's debut promo pics.

You can get the shirt here.

Okay, now I will explain to you why I'm getting violent about this shirt.

My computer doesn't load H&M US, which is where I live, so I've been using HM Hong Kong.

MUTHER FUDGER THEY DON'T HAVE THE SAME PRODUCTS!

This tee is available on the Hong Kong site but is nowhere to be found on the US site. WHAT THE FUDGE?!

I'm going to start hunting everything under US AND Asian country selection options because I always forget that big companies like H&M sometimes split their clothing stock.

Also, I don't know for SURE who's in EXO-K and who's in EXO-M, so everything is like... I'll have to change tags later.

I'm thinking about starting up that daily post thing again. What do you guys think? COMMENT BELOW

Year Two Contest WINNERS

2012-01-08T14:23:00.007-05:00

Hey guys!

PLNDR helped sponsor a contest for our readers back in October for celebration of our 2nd anniversary. You can see that post here.

Did you hear that? Back in October.

Sorry for being slow.

Anyway the results are in, so I'm going to walk you guys through the voting process and how we determined the winners.

Our Winners are...

1st Place

Christy Nguyen
21 Years Old

2nd Place

Linda Chen
16 Years Old

3rd Place

Mélissa Laurençon
15 Years Old

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERED OUR CONTEST! WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!

If you want information on how I determined the votes, click below the cut!

Okay. So to begin, I picked this method of voting because it's the most straightforward, I didn't want to use any weighted systems or any systems involving matrices. So here we go.

Remember that poll we had a while ago? I asked you guys to pick a writer and didn't tell you why.

I won. So therefore, I was the person excluded from voting. I was supposed to vote to break any tiebreakers. You'll understand in a second.

Now. Lauren, Jessica, and Mitch voted on the contest, I won't divulge whose vote is whose.

Ballot 1:
1. Christy
2. Melissa
3. Linda

Ballot 2:
1. Linda
2. Nicole
3. Christy

Ballot 3:
1. Christy
2. Amanda
3. Lucy

First place was awarded 6 points, second was awarded 4, and third was awarded 2.

Therefore, the totals came out like this.

Christy: 6+6+2=14
Melissa: 4=4
Linda: 6+2=8
Nicole:4=4
Lucy: 2=2
Amanda: 4=4

Now, as you can see, the red ones are first and second place, but the blue ones are all tied for third.

This is where my tiebreaker comes in. I voted on the three outfits while concealing the names for a blind, fair judgement.

1. Melissa
2. Nicole
3. Amanda

Therefore, Melissa became our third place winner.

Thanks so much to everyone who applied! We will hopefully have more contests in the future, keep your eyes peeled.

We love you guys~

Not K-Pop

2012-01-06T00:02:00.001-05:00

Not K-Pop but...

Lots of Joyrich and some Versace X HM

Jessie J is fantastic live, very very talented.

I'm tired and sick, so I didn't want to edit any images today.

--Koko

We we we so excited...

2012-01-03T12:39:00.003-05:00

The excitement for Shinee's comeback is ridiculous. Exo too. Like. UGH! SO EXCITED!

(click to enlarge)

At the Koala Kid Press Conference, Shinee's Taemin sported Jeremy Scott X Swatch's Lightning Flash Watch.

:) Daejun find~

(click to enlarge)

At SBS's Gayo Daejun, After School and Orange Caramel's Nana wore Human Potential's GB invader Gorilla Sweater from their F/W 2011 Collection.

You can snag this baby here.

LQ pic is LQ, sorry, it's hard to get HQ images for Pledis artists.

I know sweaters are in and everything but that sweater is WAY to big for her. Not to mention she's like a stick. Then again, I'm not one to talk because I like everything size XL when I'm a size small...

My house, my rules, my pleasure

2011-12-31T17:31:00.003-05:00

I love H&M.

Remember that Lanvin H&M collection? Yeah, there was a Versace H&M one too and I was waiting for people to wear it. Finally. Thank you SM.

(click to enlarge)

At the 2011 SBS Gayo Daejun, Shinee's Taemin wore Versace X HM's leather jacket.

No buylink since it's already out of stores, I'm pretty sure you can snag it on Ebay, but please comment if you have a good buylink!

BTW, long time no poll. I'll put one up ASAP.

Whistling is fun

2011-12-30T00:10:00.003-05:00

You guys asked for it! I thought that posting all of the troublemaker finds would be redundant, since most of them are pretty obvious... But I guess not because when I asked everybody was like "TROUBLEMAKERRRRRRRRRRRRRR".

So here we go!

(click to enlarge)

In Troublemaker's music video for Troublemaker, 4minute's Hyuna sported Louboutin's daffodile brodee pumps (these were made for the celebration of the company's anniversary).

I have no legit buylinks, all the ones I can find seem kind of sketchy. Comment if you have a good one.

Here's a link with information.

You wanted shoes? I gave you shoes. More to come. Lots more to come.

The brands are really obvious. I kid you not, my go to brands for shoes are going to be coming up in the next couple of days.

Questions questions.

2011-12-26T23:43:00.003-05:00

Hey guys, a couple of announcements.

I'm back from my roadtrip, so the remaining part of 2011 and the start of 2012 will be dedicated to studying for standardized tests and this blog. So you will for sure see a lot of posts.

Regarding these posts, I have some finds that I can't decide whether or not to post.

Please please please comment if you want to see some of these finds!

- Hyuna and Hyunseung (JS) from Troublemaker

- EXO-M and EXO-K as soon as they come out (trust me, I will get on those boys the second they come out because I am obsessed).

- Shinee (when they make a comeback) AND more in Japan! I've been slacking on shinee finds...

- SNSD yet again, lots of finds all over the place, I just don't know if you guys want me to post them.

Also! The results from the competition are finally in, I was picking a method of computing the winner, so I will demonstrate the full mathematical process in a post. I will e-mail PLNDR later this week and hopefully we can announce the winners ASAP.

Speaking of excitement. Oh. My. Heavens.

Dude. Do. Want.

Kim Eunbi Rocks out in some Mishka

2011-12-07T17:13:00.002-05:00

Kim EunBi, the SuperstarK2 contestant who signed with YG, has recently been revealed to be a part of the new YG ladies group. In a YG Promo Picture the star is seen wearing a New Era hat from Mishka NYC, a brand worn many times by 2NE1.

Buy the hat in black here-- I think the one she is wearing is custom.
