And this is the wall with the Rilakkuma picture on it, that she mentioned on Nico Nico TV! She said her favorite word if “daradara” because she saw it next to a Rilakkuma and thought it cute LMAO!XD

Dara said she went back to Harajuku Kiddie Land after 5 years. And that it’s a new world, LOL! XD She saw a lot of Kiiroitori and saw her name on the wall! But she doesn’t know what ‘daradara’ meant.. ^_^

 Kyou mo ashita mo daradara goron” means, “I am doing nothing lazily today and tomorrow” or “I am relaxing lazily today and tomorrow” O_O Kkkkk! “Daradara” literally means “lazily.”

Photo/Interview: Dara Looks Cute as a Button for WWD Japan Photoshoot and Interview ~ “Japan is Like Home for 2NE1”

Dara is just cute as a button~! I know she said their concept was tomboy image, but I think she looks quite feminine, and French with her getup. ᄏᄏᄏᄏ She said she wears a lot of Saint Laurent because the clothes fit the “tomboy” image. Please refer to the previous post for more of her fashion likes and statements. ^^ She also said that although it’s only been 3 years, Japan is a place that she thinks of as “home” as well because 2NE1 receives a lot of love and their welcome is always warm too. ^_^

Photos/Interview: 2NE1 Talks About Winter/Fall Fashion and CRUSH Album with WWD Japan ~ The Girls Love “Saint Laurent, Chrome Hearts, Versace, Gaultier, Chanel, and Marc Jacobs”

Awwww, our girls are so cute! CL said that the clothes they’re wearing are their main costumes from CRUSH MV. ^_^ Dara said that their concept is that of a tomboy image, kekekeke! ^_^ 

20140625_2NE1_1

The girls were asked what they think would be the trend item for winter/fall 2014-15.. Bom said she likes to dress stylishly, but comfortably, so she likes “melange knit” dresses (comfy, stretchable, light, and fuzzy knit); Dara said her style is more of a boyish taste, so for shoes, she likes sneakers and Caterpillar shoes, and chester coat (it’s similar to pea coats, or double breasted coats, for us people who don’t know what they’re officially called in the fashion worldᄏᄏᄏᄏ) and sports jacket (or letterman jackets, again to the fashion-handicapped like me), Minzy said she likes clothes that can be worn comfortably, so she likes “men’s line coats” and comfortable “mohair knit” coats (the fuzzy-like material coats), and CL also likes “men’s line coats” that gives off a good fit and stylish silhouette, and also “fur coats.” Seriously, I had to search for most of the items, since I’m like “eh?! what?!” with most of them ᄏᄏᄏ

Asked what brands they wear often recently, Dara shared that she likes jeans and rider jackets from “Saint Laurent,” Bom said accessories, dresses, and shoes from “Versace,” Minzy said, “Chrome Hearts” and “Marc Jacobs” accessories and watch, and CL mentioned that she likes vintage brands like “Chanel” and “Jean Paul Gaultier.”
