For real? You bet. Yukiro and I made a Travel SOS video with Mat Devine, frontman of rock band Kill Hannah!
★♡★♡ Please Like it (click below), so we can continue the series! ★♡★♡
The video’s set in the space-themed Yotel, our sponsor hotel during New York Fashion Week.
What will travel look like in fifty years? Will we have robots and aliens?
Find out above and on Huffington Post.
Inside Yotel, a Tumi robot arm carries and stores luggage for guests.
The lobby has a row of touch-screen computers for check-in.
Our sleek white cabin (that’s what they call the rooms) quickly got messy. We loved the free coffee machines on each floor.
Located at 10th Avenue and W42 in New York City, the hotel is hard to miss.
On the 4th floor, chef Richard Sandoval’s restaurant DohYo fuses Latin and Asian cuisine.
Beam me up, Scotty! London’s Softroom and NYC’s Rockwell Group collaborated on the outerspace interior design.
Mat Devine has a killer sense of humor, and we loved hanging out with him in New York. Kill Hannah is currently on tour; you can see fun updates on his Twitter and Facebook.
Inspired by Japanese capsule hotels, the rooms have space-saving elements such as retractable beds.
The VIP suite has a hot tub, 180 degree view, and dining table that converts to a billiard table.
Aliens not included!
Cabins begin at $149 a night, and can be booked via the Yotel NYC website.

IFB CONFERENCE, NY FASHION WEEK BLOGGERS PANEL: BRANDS, ADS & SPONSORED POSTS. SLEEVEY WONDERS SLIP-ON SLEEVES.
It was an honor to speak at IFB Conference during NY Fashion Week. I uploaded a video of my moments on the mike.
Keep reading for the goods, and to learn about a marvelous garment for Lolita dresses!
I spoke on the “What are Bloggers Worth?” panel, to an audience of hundreds. What advice did I give? How was my performance?
Watch the video above and on YouTube to decide. (You can also subscribe to my lacarmina channel.)
I’m in love with my lace sleeves, a gift from Sleevey Wonders. Since I dislike wearing heavy blouses under sleeveless dresses and Lolita JSKs, these garments are an elegant solution. Made with 4-way stretch fabric, they transform the same dress into a completely different look (a clever way to expand your wardrobe). And the design is slimming: no Photoshop!
Sleevey Wonders generously offered 15% off all orders, with the code LACARMINA15 — so support indie and women-run businesses, and shop away. You can also add their Facebook for more ideas to beautify your wardrobe.
Another lovely Lolita accessory: handmade hair flowers clips. A present from Angelica Brigade.
Always fun to see Bryanboy. He spoke on the IFB social media panel.
Jennine Jacob of The Coveted founded IFB and organized this event — she rocked it. (Photos above by BFA.)
Tiger striped dress: gifted by Sourpuss. (Click to buy the same dress, in cupcake pink and black print.)
Bone necklace: got at the Monomania shop in Laforet Harajuku. Similar to this.
Yukiro wears a Nyanpire cat cosplay jumpsuit from Tokyo.
The other ladies on my panel: Susan Schwartz – Glamour; Jessie Thorpe – Denimology; Jenni Radosevich – I Spy DIY; Kat Griffin – Corporette; Lauren Tesar – Lifebooker.
Always a pleasure to see our friends at Lyst.
Jinna Boo of Grease & Glamour moderated the panel.
To those of who you came: it was wonderful to meet you.
And to those who couldn’t make it… hope to see you next time!
Check out more photos from the Evolving Influence event.
