CUTEST CAT VIDEO: SCOTTISH FOLD MEOWING & PLAYING. RED DYED HAIR, ALTERNATIVE MAKEUP, BLACK & WHITE SMOKY EYES.
I’m so happy to be reunited with my Scottish Fold cat, Basil Farrow! He’s sitting on my suitcase to prevent me from leaving again. (Unfortunately for Basil, I’m soon heading to Italy for Luisaviaroma’s Firenze4Ever fashion blogger event…)
Basil’s doing wonderfully: he’s healthy, wise, cute and soft. It’s been a while since I posted a video of him, so here’s something to fill the void. Come see my fat cat in action below and on YouTube.
My silly cat doesn’t meow; he says Wahhh! Wouldn’t you like to give his soft tummy and tiny ears a rub?
Uncanny: I found this Scottish Fold stuffed toy in Hong Kong’s Sogo department store (Causeway Bay). The plushie looks exactly like Basil Farrow: cream fur, pink paws, tiger tail and the M on his forehead. I seriously think a designer saw my cat’s photo and turned him into a toy.
However, they got his nose wrong; it’s supposed to be brown, like a teddy bear!
For more cute photos of Basil Farrow (my celebrity Scottish Fold cat), please follow my Twitter and add him on Facebook.
Bonus makeup tip: Tired of wearing heavy, irritating fake eyelashes? Using black liquid eyeliner, draw long lashes at the outer corners of your eyes. Blend black and white shimmery eyeshadow to soften the look and add definition.
Did Basil’s new kitty video brighten up your day? Got any favorite pet photos or videos? Feel free to share them in the comments.

CAUSEWAY BAY, HONG KONG SHOPPING MALLS GUIDE: WORLD TRADE CENTRE. CUTE STATIONERY, ACCESSORIES & WOMENS CLOTHING.
I’m cuddling my baby cat and looking through photos… Seba and I had a wild time in Hong Kong and Macau! Ready for our cross-dressing, space-disco adventures? Let’s go.
Hong Kong is known as shopper’s paradise — a moniker you’ll understand once you step into Causeway Bay’s infamous giant malls. Some, such as Times Square, have pricey boutiques that you can find anywhere (Gucci, Valentino). But World Trade Centre (do you sense a NYC name theme?) is worth visiting for its cute, affordable, only-in-Asia brands.
Such as… this quack-quack store for cute character goods!
I bought Basil Farrow a little blue rubber ducky.
Wouldn’t you like to duck in here for a browse? (Ha ha.)
Continuing with the avian theme: Sugarman.
The brand is pure fun, with colorful character designs, bold colors, polka dots and drop pants.
Next door is A Bros. (Do you sense a Hong Kong streetwear theme already? Quite different from Japan’s, isn’t it?)
Guess what: Seba and I met with A Bros, and we will be working with this brand! The full story will be announced soon. (Do you remember Seba’s shark backpack in this LA post? It is by A Bros.)
Cute characters are just as big in Hong Kong as they are in Japan. Accessories and makeup are much cheaper here.
The Bread n Butter store is one of my favorites.
Home decor goods for girly-girls.
You can get dolled up at the Barbie makeup counter.
I suppose some people want a “Plastic Smooth” look!
Much more to come from Hong Kong and Macau, including cute cooking and fashion fun. If you think your friends will enjoy this post, please give it a Like or shoot them an email.
Are you surprised by Hong Kong’s street/cute fashion offerings? How do they compare to Japan’s? Out of the brands pictured, which do you like best?
