MY LITTLE PONY PROJECT: MISCHIEF ON MELROSE

The My Little Pony Project 2012 opened this past Saturday at the Toy Art Gallery on Melrose. Curated by Sweet Streets, the show exhibits 25 artist designed My Little Pony figures by an array of artists, designers and brands. Also on display is a collection of vintage MLP’s, which surely made the 5-year-old me squeal with delight. There were events at a total of four shops along Melrose and each had a Pony on display. We ventured to each spot throughout the night for all the Pony excitement.

The line to get into the Toy Art Gallery was so long and it never seemed to die down as the night progressed. Luckily, we showed up early.

Inside was just as crazy! There was a DJ, open bar and cake balls. CAKE BALLS!

Drinking a beer as I reminisced about the Ponies of my childhood….

I insisted that Horacio take a picture with designer Onch Movement because I knew it would be really funny…and it was! Onch insisted on doing something “sexy”. Thankfully, Ho’s awesome enough to play along. Haha!

Yume Ninja and Chubby Bunny tapping unicorn horns. They were amongst the best dressed of the evening, as they usually are.

Lil’ Rae Cake balls are as delicious as they are kawaii. Check out Chrissa‘s self-made MLP necklace!

Amy Phamous, Yume Ninja, myself, Shannon and Chubby Bunny Michelle. This picture is so colorful, I love it! Indie 184′s art is our backdrop.

The Indie 184 Pony at Munky King. There are also new works by Indie on display and a Kweenz Destroy mini shop. I’m really tempted to buy a piece…

HM Soundsystem‘s Amy and Minh also met up with us

Lastly, we headed over to Joyrich, which is one of my all-time favorite retail spaces. Lights, mirrors, and color galore! Their pony was pretty sweeeet!

This is Shannon. We met on Friday and were hugging and giggling by Saturday. She was in town for Michelle’s birthday…and is now back home in Portland.

Everyone had a such good time…friendship really is magic!

The show runs through May 26th, so go get your Pony on!

BANANAS, BABES AND BOOZE

First off: Kyary Pamyu Pamyu has a new music video!

This past weekend Ho and I hung out at Barbie’s for some drinks and poolside lounging.  See, thats her at the bar!

Actually, we were at Drai’s at the W Hotel in Hollywood. We went to see Mademoiselle Yulia’s Dj set. This was her first time Dj’ing in the States and she was here to launch the collaboration between her fashion line, Giza and Joyrich.

BANANA BUDDIES!!! We ran into designer Onch Movement! I just happened to be sporting my banana. It was exciting.

Mademoiselle Yulia taking the stage.

She Dj’s as good as she looks.

She kept us dancing like maniacs. Ironically, we  also ran into Chubby Bunny Michelle!

I’ve been excited over this. Graphic designer/illustrator/awesome girl Rachelle Abellar illustrated me for my birthday. I love it! …and not just because it’s my face.

I’m fortunate to be surrounded by talented and creative individuals.

CUTE AND COLORFUL

I’ve been playing around with my new camera! Ho bought me a Canon Power Shot S100 for Christmas. I know nothing about cameras-but I really like this one. It’s simple to use and takes really good pictures.

Hanging out at Royal/T. We were responding to an insane email that should keep Hysteric Haus quite busy for the next few weeks….

Lavender nails, purple sequins and kitsch rings. ‘Cuz that’s my steeze.

 

ROYAL DOKIDOKI PON RUNE

6% Dokidoki’s  Vani and Yuka

This past Friday night was the Rune Boutique party at Royal/T. The event was honoring the late Japanese artist Rune Naito and featuring Japanese Kawaii brand, 6% Dokidoki.

This was Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s first US appearance! She killed it! Her outfit, hair and backup dancers were ON POINT!  She performed Pon Pon Pon and her new single, Tsukemasu Tsukeru.

6% DOKIDOKI & RUNE BOUTIQUE

Now that Unique LA has passed, (update coming soon!) I can now get all excited for the Rune Boutique party featuring 6% DokiDoki this Friday at Royal/T!

I just might be able to put the lollipops I purchased on impulse the other day to use…!

Get more info on the event here.

Kyary will be there too!

SWEET BUNNY SPANK

Last night was the Sweet Streets art show at WWA Gallery in Culver City.

It was colorful times!

Images from top to bottom:   One of my favorite pieces in the show, by Macotic. I think I have a thing for artwork with  super colorful, juicy girls.

Me in front of the rainbow, pony and hearts wall wearing my favorite item of clothing-my Married to the MOB purple sequin jacket!

Close-up of said jacket, plus my almost obnoxiously huge magenta Hello Kitty bag. My nails almost match the My Little Pony charm!

All-around awesome guy, Mark!

NOVEMBER 19, 2011 HURRY UP!

I am really looking forward to November 19.  Exciting things will occur on this day:  the return of Horacio from 6 weeks in Shanghai and the Sweet Streets art show along with a  SPANK! pop-up shop and SPANK!/ Chubby Bunny fashion show!!!

MUST MEET TAVUCHI!

TOKYO RISING

I’m posting this because it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It’s magical and inspiring and even though shit is and has been going down in the world, I believe that the young people are going to make it all okay.
