Mini Apple Mini Soda: Update

noreply@blogger.com (Bulaklak Blog) — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 23:00:00 +0000

Hello everyone!

Here's an update for the Spring Bulaklak Tribe Midwest Gal Meetup.

When: May 20-21, 2011
Where: Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
Who: Midwest Gals!
What: 2 Days of shopping and partying, getting to know your fellow Midwest Gals, and just having fun!


Minneapolis and the Mississippi River

Join Bulaklak Tribe and other Midwest gals as we take Minneapolis by storm!

Have fun on Friday going to super cute and unique vintage shops and boutiques, and sightseeing around Downtown, Uptown, and Northeast Minneapolis. Get a taste of fun local cafes and restaurants while meeting up with gyaru from all over the Midwest. You don't have to necessarily hang out with the group on Friday, have fun and explore!

Iconic Uptown Theatre

At night meet up with BT and go club hopping at all the hottest places. If you're not 21, don't worry there are plenty of 18+ places to go.

AQUA Nightclub

On Saturday you can come and enjoy the famous Mall of America!
Shop at 500+ stores such as Forever 21, H&M, and many others!
But don't forget to wear you nautical themed coordinate that day, as we go through Underwater Adventures. Be sure to set aside some cash, it's about 18 USD to get in, but worth it. You get to pet sharks.


Best Buy Rotunda at Mall of America

As for a restaurant on Saturday, the current plan is either the Hard Rock Cafe or Ichiban, a traditional Japanese Steakhouse. Saturday night get ready to party hard at the infamous First Avenue, for Too Much Love.

First Avenue, located on 1st AVE. :B

As for Sunday, feel free to leave or chill out with a fun spa/relaxation day. Get your nails done, grab some sandwiches and head over to the Sculpture Garden at the Walker Art Center. Relax and enjoy the weather, because May = The Best month in MN. Hang out with your gal friends and nurse your hangovers in the fresh air.

---

Transportation will be limited. Plan on taking some buses and/or the light-rail. Most things downtown are within walking distance, as are things in uptown. But you'll need to take the bus to get there, because hotels downtown are HELLA expensive.

Recommended Hotels:

Doubletree Hotel Minneapolis - Park Place

Sheraton Bloomington Hotel

Ramada MOA

We STRONGLY suggest booking a hotel by the MOA because they offer free shuttles to and from the MOA, then you can take the light-rail downtown.

Any questions? Feel free to ask. :D

noreply@blogger.com (Bulaklak Blog) — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 22:27:00 +0000

Hi everyone! Miri here with an update about upcoming events for 2011. So far we've got 2 big ones planned, and a variety of smaller local events in the works.

First up: Anime detour! BT Takeover!

Come hang out with BT at one of the midwest's largest anime conventions, Anime Detour! Since 2004 it's been a staple in any Japanese culture enthusiast's social life. Go to J-fashion panels, rock your gal style, and party until the AM with us in April. We're taking over this year, and hope you be there with us!

Happy New Year! Starting off with a new hair color!

noreply@blogger.com (Bulaklak Blog) — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 01:26:00 +0000

Justin here!
I hope all you Gals are having a fantastic New Year.
I myself am heading to a house party with Emily =D
I started out the New Year early by changing my hair color.

it's quite drastic!
In all honesty it was supposed be a dark brown but it turned out almost black.
It's growing on me though! I like it.

Now for tonight's outfit!

キラキラ　New Year!

I wish you all a great year and please look forward to more events from Bulaklak Tribe in the coming year!
Stay Fashionable~!

Acid Rock Style!

noreply@blogger.com (Bulaklak Blog) — Sat, 04 Dec 2010 21:05:00 +0000

Justin here to share possibly my favorite trend in Gyaru-O
ACID ROCK STYLE!

This style has everything I love! Skulls, Damaged Jeans, and dark/monotone colors.
on to the pictures!

Can't have Acid Rock Style without sunglasses right! ROCK STAR =P

I actually modified this shirt the shirt is from Heritage 1981 but I just cut a skull pattern in the back and had my friend stitch it a bit for extra detail.

CRAZY ROCK STYLE
I wanted to break up the style so I inserted a scarf around my waist to add more asymmetry and break up the colors a bit.

ROCK ON!

another view of the back

Outfit Breakdown!

Jeans: YESSTYLE (some Korean off brand)
Shirt: Heritage 1981
Scarf: YESSTYLE
Boots: ALDO
Bracelets: H&M and Claire's
Necklaces: Buckle and Tokyo

Stay Fashionable Everyone! <3

Ashley and Shiena here~!

noreply@blogger.com (Bulaklak Blog) — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 13:06:00 +0000

Despite being active members of BT we seem to be the least contributive to the blog, hah. For the sake of posterity here's a post from the two of us... just purikura and whatnot. If you'd like to check up on us at all, I (Ashley) occasionally make posts to the Everyday Gyaru Livejournal community here and there, Shiena updates her Facebook albums often, and the two of us actively compile our ridiculous adventures with the people we encounter here in Tokyo on Youtube.

Here's a timelapse of us from Shiena's arrival to recent~~.

CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER:

We'll do our best to contribute to the BT blog more in the future. Individually we both have a lot of content on our own... but not really the time to compile and post it these days.

One Winter Coordinate

One Coordinate, Shopping trip Pics, and Mini-Gyaru Meet-up!

noreply@blogger.com (Bulaklak Blog) — Sun, 14 Nov 2010 03:12:00 +0000

This past Thursday Emily and I met up with a local Gyaru at the Mall of America here in Minnesota. We had a great time! So please enjoy the pictures =D

The local Gyaru is Sara Mari! She also has a Blogspot which I will link to!

Moments Like Diamonds

Here is a pic of my shopping GETS!

Believe it or not this is all from the Girls Section in H&M =P

I also caved in with the current trend and got a foxtail you can see it clipped to my bag in the picture.

Last but not least here is a pic of a quick coordinate I made.

All in All it was a great time! I am hoping we can have a mini meet-up again soon!
