lets all remember when nicki went over to Japan and her style choices were A+ <3

i like how Nikki is the only one who did something japan related that didn’t go bad

lol its because nicki actually understands the style and ADMIRES it unlike those condescending fucks who wouldnt know kawaii if it bit them in the ass

Because she’s doing a fashion trend not trying to BE Japanese (Katy), or exaggerate a part of Japanese culture that everyone know is Japanese and shows little interest in actual Japanese culture (Gaga)

((except in dat video “Your Love” where she dressed as a geisha tbh))

I do think her fashion choices are cute af esp in these photos tho :3 that first one she’s fairy-kei, and it looks soooo good omg <3 

she’s not perf in not appropriating JP culture, but she doin’ a better job at understanding harajuku fashion without being problematic then most celebs these days (katy perry, gwen stefani…) she didn’t use Asian people as background props to her performances/videos, so that’s a plus. :3

but “better then most” is still problematic at the end of the day. I hope she continues to do cultural sharing like in these photos, rather then the cultural appropriation she started out with in ‘Your Love.’ ya dig?

I agree
