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!

Then I proceeded to make a beautiful importance of angles vine

How/Where I learn Japanese

Hello you, I hope you're good!

So today I'm going to answer a question I literally get asked multiple times a day. I have answered a lot of them, but I thought it would be useful to have one place you can refer to, so I can hopefully answer your questions on how I self study!

To be honest, not really sure why I get this question so much, I did a couple of bad videos and lives in Japanese and my Japanese is still not that much better, so I don't even know if this will be truly useful...I think some of it should be! And also, if any of you guys have any other tips, fire them at me, because not only does it help me, it could help other people reading too! If I find some other things that I find really useful that I don't mention here when I first publish it, I'll add it on to this post later.

I also did a video on this subject here

Books

I more or less use books as the basis and foundation of my studying. It's where I learn the basics such as grammar, vocabulary, how Japanese works ect.

Kawaii Goods Review (That's Hopefully Kawaii and Good!)

Hello you, I hope you're good!

Today I have another super duper sparkly review for you from the independent store Kawaii Goods!

Click here to go to their store

(Be prepared to have a bit of a boogie, there's some awesome tunes)

I believe all the accessories and art is designed and handmade by the owner, which makes all these products feel so much more special!

So let's start with the clothing!

(Click on the images to enlarge)

I got sent this really adorable pastel top in blue. The top isn't handmade, but the print is an original design to the store.

I usually don't go for this shape top unless it's really baggy, so I can wear it in a more boyish style, but the fitting of this top is really girly and I love how it sits on me. I got a size small (I'm a U.K size 6/8).

The design is screen printed on and I was a little worried it was going to fade really easily because the design is so pastel, but it's been washed in a 40 degrees cycle and the print is going strong!

It's also really comfy and soft, so I'm very happy with this top!

I also got sent soooo many accessories!

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!

Juizy Woozy!

Hello you, I hope you're good!

So today we have a really cute review for a brand called Juizy Woozy!

First off..how cool is that name?? It's so much fun to say!

Click here to go to their facebook~

Juizy Woozy is already pretty popular in Asia, which has exploded onto the scene because of it's vibrant and colourful, casual clothing. They have their own original adorable characters and you can get them on clothing, bags and shoes! But there is some great news! The lines are going to be sold in the U.K at KeepItSecret. At the moment, this will be the only U.K retailer, although it might change in the future. There isn't currently a launch date in the U.K, but it's going to be the first part of this year...so that's really exciting!

I was really lucky to be sent a product to review and gosh darn it, it's the cutest thing ever!

Dancer Of The Week Announcement

Hello you, I hope you're good!

So, it's March and it's another month, which would mean a new Dancer Of The Week. 

However, I've been thinking about this for the past few days and I think I need to take a break from DOTW. It's not the fact that I don't enjoy doing it, or that I don't enjoy watching everyone who takes part, it's the fact that I don't think I have enough time or energy to fully dedicate to it properly at the moment.

As some of you know, I work in a bar, and of course that means weekends, so on Sunday's after working until 4am in the morning, I just...crash! I usually just want to sleep the whole day and chill out, but I can't because I have this and many other things that I usually have to do. Sometimes, I just take too many things on and I don't really get time to rest haha!
