I deleted my older posts, since they were extremely bad-written and ashaming. First posts on a blog are well-known/almost notorious for being bad but I just didn't feel comfortable with having them on my blog; I guess I'm a perfectionist with that; some people might have noticed 'older' blogs of mine. I thought they were just not good enough and didn't feel comfortable with them. Easy. It's an excuse to everything, I should watch out with feeling uncomfortable about my homework and stuff.
I've been really inspired by the whole Japanese fashion thing lately, especially fairy kei. You guys might have heard about that and it's great, it reminds me of Marlena (or Marlena reminds me of it, I don't know) and in case you like what you're going to see here, make sure you follow her.
This one above isn't fairy kei I guess, but it's also Japanese street fashion and I like the layering with the dress(es) so I post it. Don't bother, post nice pictures. After some research I found out it's called Mori. Am I the only one who gets Hawaii-feeling with that? It needs a cooler name.
The thing in fairy kei that attracts me is that it's pretty much like lolita but doesn't include the over the top dresses. I don't feel comfortable (there we go again! I need to expand my English vocabulary.) in dresses, it's just too feminine or something. Skirts are okay, even tough I don't wear them that often. I have one dress that I actually like, it's purple-black knitted and I wear it with high socks, my tartan tights and a purple jacket that's quite hard to describe and end up feeling like a dark harajuku kid. Result: The whole school stares at me (nothing unusual) and people ask me if I have colors in my wardrobe other than purple. I tend to wear that a lot without knowing so a girl who seems to be my friend (I don't know her name but she knows mine) almost got a heart-attack when I wore a blue blouse. I don't like her. She told me it was retarded that I wore scarfs on my legs. Like yóu look decent! None of us do! We're teenagers!
Another great thing about Japanese street fashion is the story behind it. I think most of you know it but they dress like that because society wants them to grow up really fast so they can be part of the working class and adult society. Lolita comes from post medieval children's clothing, the time that children were treated like little adults and had to behave like that. I agree on that; every life has to be the same: You get born, waste a lot of time at school, work, get children (same cycle for them), stop working and die. At least, it's often like that. Another thing that bothers me is that everyone lives in couples and sometimes I get the question "Why don't you have a boyfriend yet?" I'm fourteen. Every fourteen year old that gets in a relationship breaks up after 1, 2 months. If they're lucky. What's the point of having a relationship while you're just going into your freshman year (we don't have that in the Netherlands, 7th -> 12th class is seperated from everything that comes before, but there isn't a middle- and high school. I used that to show you what year I'm going to - 9th) and have to study? I'd rather make career instead of babies.
That was my point of view for today. Bye!
