Shake That Pom Pom!

Hello you, I hope you're good!

Well then, as a lot of you may know some pretty big things have been happening!

I am proud to announce that I have my own single titled "Pom Pom" out!

Here is the music video:

It is available to buy online worldwide on almost every digital music store, including iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, Google Play, Nokia, Xbox and many more! Just search Kelsey Ellison Pom Pom.

So, now you know why I've been up and down to London like a yoyo for the past year and a bit! I've been working on this and other songs for over a year now, and it's been so hard to not share this with you guys. I'm so excited to finally share it with you!

I was quite nervous about finally revealing this and it still doesn't feel real. But the response that I've gotten so far has been incredibly supportive and I'm pretty overwhelmed, so thank you so soooo much!

The video was so much fun to make, we only had a day to shoot it, so it was a lot of hard work and was pretty tiring, but it was one of the best days ever! I had my mind set on having a pizza express after the shoot no matter what, so we walked a pretty long way after in the rain to have pizza, but it was worth it!

(I stole this picture from Abi and I'm not sat on a lower chair, I really am a hobbit.)

Then I proceeded to make a beautiful importance of angles vine

News Update

Hello you, I hope you're good!

You may have noticed my website's had a makeover. It's so much more fun and colourful, I hope you like it!
(EDIT: I am sorry about all the missing images, I had just completed it and google plus has decided to remove every single image on this site, so I have to replace all the images on my pages and on my blogposts. This may take a few days, I'm sorry!)

Quite a few exciting things have been happening over this past month, so I thought I would give you an update.

First off, I was given an interview in this District MTV article

I also got to have a photo shoot with Alis Pelleschi especially for the interview.

 I  really loved how they turned out! The make up and the style is very different to what I usually do, but I'm really happy with them!

(click on the images to enlarge)

This one is my personal favourite! Hula hoops in a backpack omnomnomnom!

This crop top was really cool. It's made out of rubber material and I really love the pattern!

It's from Alis's own brand Meat Clothing

You may also spot that the wig I'm wearing is this lockshop one that I wear a lot. The stylists really made it look different, it's looks like a space barbie hair style!

They let me keep the really cute flower bobbles too, yey!

It was a really interesting photo shoot because she shot with Polaroids instead of a digital camera. It was quite nerving since I kind of had to get the photo's good in a couple of shots. It's not like digital where you can look at it straight away and delete it if it's not right, but I think it was worth it because the photos really did turn out unique!

Here's some behind the scenes shots

Yes, if I sit on the chair my feet don't touch the ground...

♥That camera♥

I'm so happy and grateful I got this opportunity! 

Thank you so soo much to everyone involved!

if you read the article, you might spot some other sneaky news too

Next up, I'm happy to announce I'll be attending Yorkshire Cosplay Con 6 as a special guest at Doncaster Dome, 14th June 2014!

Click here to go to their website.

I'm really looking forward to going there, it's a local event that I've wanted to go to for sometime, I literally just have to hop on a bus. I hope I can see some of you there!

Another exciting thing!

My video 10 Steps To Become Real Life Anime has been featured on quite a few articles online, including Rocket News 24!

It was posted on the Japanese website here

Then the English website also created an article here

Oh, if you haven't seen the video, here it is!

I'm really overwhelmed by the response this video has had, I didn't expect it to get this recognition!

It was so much fun to film, and is kind of in a parody manner (I thought I should mention that since some people actually think I'm being serious). Also thank you so much to Dave from Boyinaband for doing this collab with me!

We also did a collab video on his youtube too:

How to Dance to 10 Music Genres

Also, if you didn't know, I'm also happy to announce, I am a judge for cosmate's contest with many other awesome people including these guys:

Abi

Keekihime

Beckii

There are some really great prizes up for grabs, so if you want to know more, check out the contest page here

Well, I think that is everything for now!

Dancer Of The Week~ Week 1 February

Hello you, I hope you're good!

I'm not feeling too good today, so I'm sorry if this blog post doesn't make much sense haha!

So it's time to start dancer of the week again!Wohoo!

If you don't know what it is you can see the first post here

Before we start there's a few things I need to mention.

I can't seem to get in contact with the winner of dancer of the month, friskie, so if anyone knows her, will you let her know she won! I will still try and get in contact though too.

Also, I've been a bit of a nicompoop. On one of the weeks, I forgot to check my comments on the blog page so I missed a load of nominations! That's what you get for writing blog posts on a Sunday when I've been working until 5am in the morning >.< But I've learnt my lesson!

So, I've decided to have two winners for each section this week and 7 special mentions to make up for it!

Actually, I lie.

There's been a huuuuge abundance of JPOP dancers being nominated, but for this week, only one Kpop dancer was nominated! Kpopers?? Where you at??

But do not fret, the person who was nominated was incredible, and I really enjoyed watching the video...

So I guess I best announce who that is!

This week's KPOP Winner is:

Karl Baclea-an!

Like I said, this was so entertaining to watch, the dancing was on point and I also loved the emotion in it! You really do deserve to win! Please go and congratulate him~
This week's JPOP winner's are:
Jyuke!

This was just such a beautiful cover! It was beautifully danced, beautifully shot in a beautiful location! I loved her energy in this and I really enjoyed watching this. I had no problem watching it the whole way through! Please go and support her she really deserves it!
Karochu!
 
You may have seen her in the special mentions before! I love the energy and passion that she puts into this dance so much! She danced it perfectly and her facial expressions are so cute too! It was a truly enjoyable cover to watch, and in fact all of her covers are, she's a very consistent dancer. Please go and support her and congratulate her~
Special Mentions!
Choom (I love the creativity in this cover!)
narutohatesyou512

iJeena

ThisIsTomemon

Miyu Nanami

Kirhia Hikari

DancingShrubbery


So that's it for this week! I know I say this a lot, but if you are not a winner and you were nominated or even a special mention, please don't be disheartened. It goes to show with Karochu, she has been nominated multiple times and has been a special mention before, and she won this time! She's a wonderful dancer and so is every single person that is entered! Any of you could easily win or become a special mention, and again some of the special mentions this week were so close to winning, so please keep entering!
Here's a reminder of the rules and how to enter:
Ways to Enter ~You can either nominate yourself or a friend!

~Comment on the latest Dancer Of The Week blog post

~Write the nomination on my Facebook like page wall here:

https://www.facebook.com/KimonoTimeOfficial

(NOT as a personal message or a comment on one of my posts)

Or if you would like your nomination to not be as public you can

~Send an email to kimonotime@googlemail.com with the subject "Dancer Of The Week Nomination"

You also have the option of letting me know that if you nominated someone else, whether or not you would like the person you nominated to know that you nominated them if they end up on the blog post.

I won't accept entries through personal messages on my facebook like page, my personal facebook pages, twitter, youtube, tumblr, askfm, instagram or any other social media I've missed; simply because there is a high chance I will miss them.

Rules:

~ It has to be a Kpop/Jpop dance

~You can only enter or nominate the same person once a week, so you can still nominate as many people as you like.
~You can enter again after the week is up if you're not a winner, that includes special mentions!

More rules will probably be added because people are cheeky monkeys haha.

The winners and special mentions will be announced every Sunday.

Also, the prize for February's Dancer Of The Month is

$20 to spend at Romwe!

Oh also, sneaky self promo...here's my latest cover!

I've really enjoyed watching everyone's entries and I'm excited for next week!

I hope you've all had a great weekend and thank you so much for reading~

HNY! ~ My style throughout 2013!

Hello you, I hope you're good!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

2014! Woo! For me, it still doesn't feel like New Year to be honest. I don't know why, maybe because I was working last night, but maybe later on today one of my alpacas will wave their magic wand and go "A New Year, A New YOU!" Or something...I dunno.

I don't really have any New Years resolutions. I always go by the rule, work hard, play hard and be nice to people... and it seems to work every year!

And get better at Japanese...ok that might be a resolution.

Oh! I have a video up of bloopers, outtakes and unseen footage from this year and the other years I've been on youtube too!

I feel 2013 has been a year of style for me. I've always been into fashion and stuff, but I seemed to get proper into it this time. I also feel that 2013 my style changed and turned quite a lot, so I thought it would be fun to have a look throughout the year!

Ok let's go!

☺Romwe!☺

Hello you ,I hope you're good!

Look, I made a flower crown! I feel so magical

Sparkle sparkle~

It's been a while since I've blogged, I'm really sorry, I've been sorting a lot of things out in my life, some pretty big and possibly exciting stuff! So hopefully you will know about it soon! But for now I like to be all dark and mysterious like those anime characters or something. 

Anyhoo

While I've been away from blogging, I am proud to announce that I got sponsored by Romwe!

http://www.romwe.com/

I've had my eye on the store for a while, and a lot of things on my wishlist are from here, so I'm over the moon to be affiliated with such an awesome store! I also got the Mike Wazowski top from Romwe! (You can see the blogpost about that here.) I do believe they post worldwide, so that's a bonus.
They have also let me host a giveaway on my facebook page for these amazing tights!

There's only 3 days left, so click here to join in the giveaway!

So, today after eagerly waiting at the letterbox for what feels like forever, I got it a package from them this morning!

✿My very floral vintage day✿

Hello you, I hope you're doing good!

So yesterday, I had a pretty floral day...

I'm a little addicted to photo editing apps at the moment. I used the sweet filter on camera 360, the sweety filter on photowonder, then a new app called studio for the frame and then Papelook for the flower stamps! But the floral doesn't stop there...oh no!...

I'm a Primark Monster!

Well hello you, I hope you're good!

The past few days have been really fun, so I thought I'd share some of it with you!

On Saturday it was my sister's birthday, so we had a party at our house. Me and Abbi (my sister) used to go to the same theatre school, so we share some of the same friends, so I got to see them again, which was really nice!

My mum thought it would be cool to have pie and peas, and hotdogs instead of a full BBQ, so we had that instead! Mmmmm yummy (I don't like pie and peas though, so I had a hotdog).

I didn't take many pictures that day, but I did post a mini vine!

                                           

It took me forever to figure out how to embed this thing, so if it's not working, I'm KimonoTime on vine too.

I also got a picture of Abbi's cake!

Our whole family loves Disney, and her favourite is Snow White. Disney is not just for kids!!

Ahhh it's so pretty! We really don't want to eat it.

My Mum's friend made the cake, and there was an actual Barbie inside. However, she tried to dye the Barbies hair black and the hair dye got on her face, so she looks a little...purple. Oops.

I also took a sneaky picture of what I wore in my room.

I was feeling a little 80's that day!
