My good friend YUKA, who is from Kyoto, Japan and lives there year-round (but visits NYC often) is nothing short of amazing! She has a great eye for fashion, and art. She is in fact an artist herself, and draws amazing images influenced by youth-culture: hip-hop, fashion, street-culture, etc. Most recently she drew the image above of her favorite designer Jeremy Scott…..

He’s dope!!! I see why he’s her muse…. And she’s extra-dope too! Check her out anytime on her blog: http://chocomoo.blogspot.com/ Yuka is my best-est friend from Japan. Can’t wait to go visit her out there one day soon! Arigato, Yuka! You’re the best! :)
