[8.] Brighton Japan Festival 2012

Good afternoon, readers ^-^!


Yesterday I didn't have time to write an entry,
as I was in Brighton all day for

Brighton Japan Festival

I had to get up at 6am, so I would be in Brighton for 12 noon.
It was such a long journey, but definitely worth it as I got to see my friends.


Brighton Japan Festival is an annual event that first started in 2008.
It has become the largest annual Japanese cultural festival in the United Kingdom.
It was my first time there, so I was really excited!

Yesterday's event was called "Asahi Anime Festival".
This is part of the Street Festivals, so it was outside!
Now we've all heard of the phenomenon "British Summer"...
But it was ACTUALLY sunny all day!
So lucky  ^-^!

 I was there to model in the "Japanese Street Fashion Show"!
My friend Memz was showcasing her sculptures in the fashion show.
She's an amazing artist and you can follow her work at:

Memz was also my model partner, as we all walked up in pairs!
Here are some photos of us!

Totally amazing day, though!
