JAPANESE NURSE PUNK OUTFIT! JURY BLACK SKULL LEATHER JACKET, FUNNY TOKYO STREET STYLE ON CANADA TV.
I went on a Canadian TV talk show… dressed Nurse Punk! (Video clip is below and here.)
Skull leather jacket: gifted by Jury Black. Seba left it in my room, so it’s now mine.
Silver flower brooch: gifted by Grotan (here’s a similar, affordable one.)
As you can see, my hair is now purple and red, to satisfy you all. My stylist cleaned up the ends, so it looks a lot healthier.
Makeup: MAC false lashes and a bit of Sugarpill turquoise shadow on the lower lids. My dark lip color is MAC, with black-silver glitter on top.
Aren’t the boots smashing? They’re by Rizzo. Found them in Barcelona, years ago.
Skull ring: gifted from Soho Hearts (similar to Alexander McQueen’s skull masterpiece)
Crucifix ring: Guess (they also have a purple crystal heart and cross one)
The handmade hospital-punk dress and hat are a gift from Ako, talented designer of BlaBlaHospital. Her designs are often featured in Kera Magazine.
On the set of the TV talk show.
In my 8-minute interview, I chat about Tokyo shopping, New York Fashion Week, speaking at IFB Conference (come join me!), and my earless cat.
The hosts, Fiona Forbes and Michael Eckford, invited me to return and give them Goth makeovers. Done!
Watch my TV interview above and on YouTube.
What do you think of my new hair color, worn straight? And the outfit: how does it rate on a 1 to 5 scale?
PS: My site had an upgrade, hence the weirdness you may have encountered in the past day. Fear not: everything is back now, better-faster-stronger.
PPS: Thanks to Portrait Magazine for featuring me in their It-Girl Report.

I’ve already got my phone set to remind me <3 and an extra alarm to make sure I don't roll over and go back to sleep before it starts XD
(^_______^)
La Carmina! you should do a BlogTV~ :D
what’s with the gap between them? Are they afraid of her?
Sigh… we are still a long way to go to close such gaps.
Nahh it’s a TV positioning thing – all the guests sit there. They were wonderful and invited me back to give them Goth makeovers!
YES!! they should totally be in OUR Evil queen shows XP

Thank you!!
Ooh! Did you ever do the make over? :O If so, can you post the video?! I would love to see that xD
Yup I’m coming back maybe in March to do the makeovers!
Make him an Evil make-up fake-up witch queen all green faced <3
Haa I love the boots, reminds me of wonder woman.
people who think wonder woman is a insult don´t know what they´re talking about <3
I think that was a compliment!
I can’t wait to see you at fashion week xDd
Hah Seba left it so it’s now yours. Fashion Week should be fun! You also did fine for the interview.. Hopefully one day I will walk through that fashion district, it would be amazing.
thank you so much dear!!
I love how you really sum up the spirit of being independent.

This look is wonderful!!!And I really really like Jury Black, they have great clothes. And, I really like your hew hair.
They do!
Love the hair
Yeah it’s a cool outfit, but I think my fav was the Lolita-looking one with the black dress and white tights and blouse. Maybe because I want one. lol.
Omg I ♥ your jacket!!!
waa i loved ur tights! and your hair and the outfit was awesome! :) Pretty much loved the whole thing :D
wooohoo! I really enjoyed the interview. You did a great job there =D
I want a make over from La Carmina xD

This is so awesome! I wish that we can express ourselves all over the world without bei ng judged! Here in Holland there are a few lolita’s and they always get yelled at and stared at. Normal is just boring

I wish I lived in Canada so I could’ve seen this on TV. Will definetly be checking back when you do the makeovers. Can’t wait for that. :)
Yes I will do those maybe in March.

I like your new hair color now and really liked the outfit too. After seeing some of the street style in Japan, I love it more and wish I could incorporate some of it into my own style.
I like your dress and that leather jacket! x3
I rate that outfit a 5! And I love the hair color. the purple and red blend together nicely.
I always love your blogs! *_* It makes me want to try being fashion/pop culture blogger too.
Aww you’re so sweet! Thank you!
your hair is really nice that colour but heck, I think all the hair colours you’ve tried are amazing! Although it’s not the kind of clothes I wear, I must say you make it look really awesome!
