Kobe Cat Cafe and Ashley Dy!

So the other day while browsing the internet I slammed my fist down on the table in frustration, thinking "gosh! There's just no photos of cats anywhere on here!" Luckily, I went to a cat cafe with Candy Kawaii Lover blogger Ashley yesterday, and was able to get plenty of pictures of cats, so now I can add some pictures of cats to the internet and solve that problem once and for all. No, no need to thank me, it was my pleasure :)
Ashley surrounded by cats, who came to her purely out of love and not because she was holding any food...
This cat was my favourite. It's name is Marimo but I prefer to call it gump-cat. It's little flattened ears and permanent shocked expression were too gosh darn adorable.
A kitten named Yomoza pulling a heaps sneaky move with the box there...
Serious cat faces.

The cat cafe is called Nyanny (in Motomachi) and you pay to stay by the hour, which is around $10. While we were there we were stuck in permanent-squeal-mode and kind of forgot to eat any food or drinks for ourselves, so it was less like visiting a cat cafe and more like visiting a cat... room or something. Still, it was pretty much the most relaxing and kawaii hour of my life. Ashley wrote a post about the cat cafe too, which you can check out here (with even more photos of cats - goodness, we're going to overload the internet at this rate!) More about hanging out with Ashley really soon (and outfit pictures too!)

Triple Kitten Part 2 & The Science of Cute

This dress is so completely cute and amazing! I think it went out of stock and restocked about 3 times before I managed to snag it from Romwe. A word about wearing this dress though - if you're thinking of buying it, you'll need to also have a stick-on, nude-coloured bra. The cut of the dress is pretty darn scandalous. But if you love dressing adventurously, it's awesome ;)
This is also the second wig which I got from my sponsor Choies! It's actually a really good wig (and on special right now) because it looks very real and is soooo soft, and I can brush it without it all falling apart so hooray - no more scuzzy, balding wigs for me! I'll have a post up reviewing all my wigs very soon, as some people have requested it :)

So here's a good science question for a fashion blog on which I often try and wear super cute dresses. What is the science behind the concept of "cute"? Youtuber Vsauce attempts to quantify cuteness and explain why we might perceive things as "cute" from an evolutionary behavioural point of view.

This is why the internet is now basically 90% cat, puppy and baby animal photos.

Speaking of, if you're looking for cute animals, look up baby pygmy hippos. I just discovered these the other day and I think they're now my favourite animal.
