Cute Sushi Decorating Ideas

By Olga Davydova

Posted 28 August, 2007 in Kawaii Bento Photos, Kawaii, Food Fun

It seems Fashionably Cute is in its food cuteness mode this week.

These kawaii sushi are not only yummy but delicious even to look at. Great food decorating ideas from Japan!

I love cooking sushi, I even have my own secret recipes for California Rolls and Unagi Nigiri, and I’d love to make them more unique looking.

The top photo features the adorable San-X Monochrome Pigs characters called Monokuro Boo. According to the source of the photo the character “portraits” are made of cheese and nori.

Note the “fish” with eyes in the second photo :)

Creative use of fried eggs in bentos

By Olga Davydova

Posted 27 August, 2007 in Kawaii Bento Photos, Kawaii, Food Fun

I’m pretty sure these are the cutest fried eggs you’ve ever seen. What a creative way to cook breakfast! You can try this at home. The faces are apparently made with bits of nori and maybe carrot.

The top photo features a Japanese kawaii character by San-X, Rilakkuma bear’s little chick friend (seen on a superb evening wallet we covered not long ago).

The sources for the images are Exciting character lunch and ayanamadoka

Marc by Marc Jacobs Polka Dot Denim Satchel

By Olga Davydova

Posted 23 August, 2007 in Trends

Señora Cartera has discovered an uber cute polka dot satchel by Marc Jacobs. The bag is made of denim fabric, but together with the right accessories it can add cuteness to an evening outfit:

  1. Marc by Marc Jacobs Polka Dot Denim Satchel, available at Shopbop for$258
  2. Pair it with a romantic white woven cotton Eyelet Tube Dress from Forever21 with a cute bow detail on the waist, only $27.80
  3. Throw a Lux Black Babydoll Cardigan by Urban Outfitters over the dress, just $48
  4. Patent Slingback Peeptoes by Pelle Moda from Zappos will work best with this outfit, $147.95
  5. Pearls add a nice touch to the black/white/grayish and polka dot theme of the outfit, and yellow gold is a good color match for the bag’s hardware. You can wear these inexpensive 14K Yellow Gold Rice Pearl Earrings ($25.49) and Pendant ($47.99) from Target

Skip Dessert T-Shirts

By Olga Davydova

Posted 22 August, 2007 in Discoveries, Food Fun

If you’re in the market for a hilariously cute t-shirt, then go to Threadless, their Skip Dessert T-Shirt is too cute to bear. Just look at that adorable dessert that is literally skipping with the help of two smiling vegetables. The cupcake’s facial expression as it does its exercise routine is priceless. Smiling food is the cutest thing ever, isn’t it?

Pretty strange to see this lady being so afraid of the cute little peaceful cupcake :)
The t-shirts are available through Threadless.
