MOMOLAND 2nd Mini Album Freeze! - Album Review

It has been a long time since I've posted a K-Pop review as I've been mainly doing J-Pop ones. So I thought for today's post we will look at one of MOMOLAND's early Korean releases. MOMOLAND was one of my favourite group's going back a few years ago but I kind of lost interest once Daisy left and with the whole mess that is their mismanagement. Let's take a walk down memory lane with their 2nd Mini Album Freeze!

Freeze! is the 2nd Mini Album from Korean girl group MOMOLAND and it was released in August 2017. It is the first mini album to feature Daisy and Taeha who were not present for the 1st Mini Album Welcome to MOMOLAND. The album only came in one version and came with the following contents:

• CD - 6 track Mini Album
• 80-page Photobook
• Selfie Photocard (Random from 9 types)
• Freeze Photocard (Random from 9 types)

The Freeze! concept outfits are some of my favourite ones from MOMOLAND. I adore the designs and think they are super fun. Very on brand for the group and some of them look rather hilarious with the random fabric stuck on. I think Nayun's outfit would be my favourite followed by Jane. The front cover of the mini album has the girls in some fun poses whilst the back contains the track listing. The typical production information is listed as well.

This mini album is a solid size and fits nicely on a shelf. It is one of those book style ones with the hard cover which opens up to reveal the photobook. Freeze! is the exact size as the group's 4th Mini Album Fun The World and I believe their 5th Mini Show Me is the same size as well (I don't own that one just yet). Honestly I love albums that are the same size as they look great when put together. The CD for this mini album has a cute design with the MOMOLAND logo in the middle and red colours to match the album colour.

AOA 胸キュン Mune Kyun - Single Review (Sexy Version CD+DVD Type A)

Since the last music review was of the Cutie Version of AOA's single , it seemed only natural to post the review for the Sexy Version. Both are the Type A edition however there are just two different concepts. This sexy concept can be found on the Type B CD+PHOTOBOOK edition which I've reviewed previously. I won't be posting a long review as most aspects have been covered in the other reviews and it would just be repetitive. Let's take a look!

胸キュン Mune Kyun is AOA's 3rd Japanese single and it was released July 2015. The single was released in eleven editions: Limited Sexy Versions CD+DVD Type A and CD+PHOTOBOOK Type B, Limited Cutie Versions CD+DVD Type A and CD+PHOTOBOOK Type B, and seven member editions. I brought my copy of the Sexy Version CD+DVD Type A from Yahoo Auctions and it came with the following contents:

• CD - 6 track single
• DVD - Contains MV's & Making Of
• Jewel Case
• Lyrics Booklet
• OBI
• Flyer
• Photocard

The Sexy Version Type A has a similar cover to the Photobook Type B edition with the girls in a slightly different pose. Seolhyun's pose is just with her leg bent! Would've been exciting to see some variety but I guess they just took a bunch of photos and took the ones that turned out great. The back has the same design as the Cute Version with the track listing for both CD and DVD listed along with production credits and DVD region information.

Outfit Of The Day - Blue Biker

Aren't the biker styled jackets from Marzipan Sky one of the best items in the game? I totally think so as they look amazing in outfits! For this look, I went with another blue toned outfit like my last one and put together this girly look. I would wear this in real life if I owned these items as it's rather cute and stylish. The skirt seems like it would be a light denim colour with a neat lace trim. Went with the classic sneakers from Marzipan Sky that I use for like 95% of my girly themed outfits. They just suit everything and are the best sneakers in the game.

Animal Crossing New Horizons Play Journal - Christmas & New Year Celebrations

Seems like a strange time of year to be posting Christmas photos! Looks like that is the event that I'm up to in regards to Animal Crossing New Horizons screenshots. I took too many photos during this season as well as the New Years countdown and I had to cut down to only good ones for this play journal. How adorable do Daisy and I look hanging by the festive tree in the plaza?

All my villagers got some wonderful presents and they look super cute with their little hats. I think Hamphrey looks the best because he is a grumpy personality villager. Who knows what they got because I definitely don't remember! And I don't even want to be thinking about Christmas just yet as it's always maniac at my work. Only two months until August when David Jones starts putting out their Christmas stuff.

Girls Mode 3 Glitter ☆ Coordination Book - Stray Cat Clothing Items

Quick question to start off another Style Boutique post! Do you prefer the name Stage Dive or Stray Cat for this brand? I always thought both worked well for the rock image however Stray Cat sounds cooler to me. The post for today we will be looking at more pages from the ガールズモード 3 キラキラ☆コーデ  book which focus on the rock brand Stray Cat. This brand is also called Stage Dive in Style Boutique and Style Savvy.

As mentioned, the main style of this brand is the rocker image! Think lots of check, music style tees, flares and chains. Rock isn't the only image you will find at Stray Cat as it also features pieces from the lively, psychedelic, gothic, bold, chic and preppy images. The first few like psychedelic and gothic make perfect sense. Sometimes I even get items confused after I've taken photos of outfits and I'm trying to remember what the style was. Stray Cat does have some bizarre items I rarely use like those pants with the skirt attached. I just don't like that look and I don't recall I've used them much in the game. Everyone probably has items like that in the series that they rarely use or even forgot existed!

AOA 胸キュン Mune Kyun - Single Review (Cutie Version CD+DVD Type A)

Ages ago I reviewed the Cutie Version Type B of AOA's Japanese single 胸キュン Mune Kyun and I thought why not post another edition of the single? I have two other editions of the release and this review will look at the CD+DVD Type A Edition which features the cutie concept! Isn't it crazy to think this single came out in 2015!?! Wow I feel like K-Pop and J-Pop have changed so much since then, feels like a billion years to me.

胸キュン Mune Kyun is AOA's 3rd Japanese single and it was released July 2015. The single was released in eleven editions: Limited Sexy Versions CD+DVD Type A and CD+PHOTOBOOK Type B, Limited Cutie Versions CD+DVD Type A and CD+PHOTOBOOK Type B, and seven member editions. I've reviewed the Photobook editions already if you would like to check those out as they will cover most information about the single. I brought my copy of the Cutie Version CD+DVD Type A from Yahoo Auctions and it came with the following contents:

• CD - 6 track single
• DVD - Contains MV's & Diary Footage
• Jewel Case
• Lyrics Booklet
• OBI
• Flyer
• Photocard

The concept for this single is sports and the Type A editions have the girls in a tennis inspired outfit. Originally 胸キュン Mune Kyun was released as a Korean title track and that mini album had a sporty concept as well. So the Japanese one follows on from that with different looks. The front has the girls posing in their cute outfits and it does look quite similar to the Type B edition. The members have just moved their arms or legs around really. The back cover is very simple with the group logo, track listing and production credit information.
