How crazy! Three years ago I had a vision quest that led me into a lifestyle and fashion I dubbed ‘forest’ I started a blog about it and dress with the essence of fairytales and homemade items.

Some people really seem to get a good laugh out of this it seems. Well at least the japanese people are being daring and creative. and that is something I can appriciate.
And those shoes they wear look good on them even thou they are so rediciously high heeled. So please stop it with the stupid comments okay?

Actually, I think the Mori girl style looks very soft and feminine. It has a very vintage feel to it with the variety of textures, the ruffles, and the soft color palette incorporated in most Mori girl outfits. It probably all boils down to taste, but I think it is very cute.

The hobbit look has been around for years in Japan: the scarves, the little knit hats, the sandals/fairy boots. Not too many leather rucksacks, though (too expensive). The look certainly is in keeping with the perception the Japanese have of themselves as innocent forest creatures, snatched from the womb of primeval innocence by Capt. Perry and the black ships and later cruelly bombed by heartless, butter-smelling Westerners.
Bollocks, but there you have it.
But, as Monsieur Coligny noted, layered woolen attire is particularly inappropriate for a fetid, tropical place like Kanto. But to dress more suitably would be to admit they were…Asians. Not good.
