Japan Style: Platform Converse

Hi guys! I've been having so much work with college and the Twin Guns, but now I'm back with a new post, I've been asked by most of you to post more about my fashion inspirations, so I'm going to start posting more fashion, hope you enjoy! From the streets of Tokyo and Harajuku here comes the new off the wall trend: Platform Converse shoes. I have been in love with the platform canvas shoes for so long now, since I saw them for the first time one year ago. They look confortable and bizarre at the same time, perfect for my taste! The most famous ones are the white, black, pink and leopard print. Some other pastel colours are often seen as well in spank girls and fairy/pop kei. I am in love with this shoes and I would love to own a pair. I will definetly get a pair if I find the perfect pair for me, which is: black leather shoes with black rubber soles. Studded would be cool too! If you see ones like that, please let me know!
Hope you like this fashion trend, I'm in love with it! Love, Scarlett

Japan Style: Fairy Kei

I've been in love with fairy kei style since the first time I saw it. I've never been to Japan (I wish!) so I obviously came across with this trend though the internet.
Fairy Kei is about dreamy, almost childish-like and inocent. Some clothes even look like little girls sleepwear. Drenched in pastel colors, the shop girls from SPANK!, a japanese clothing shop appeared in the western world as style icons, such as Tavuchi Sayuri, the first girl I ever saw rocking this trend.
They sometimes mix 80's toys theme such as old cartoon series (popples, my little pony, barbie) and also some music celebs of pop-rock (Bon Jovi, The Beatles, The Pixies...)
If you want to fairy your wardrobe up here are some key garements:
  • A pastel toned petticoat skirt (blue, mint and lavender are the best
  • Pastel chuck taylors or platform canvas shoes (in pastel tones as well)
  • Candy or 80's themed jewellery
  • Hair Bows/pins/ kitty ears


Punk Rock Fairy Kei


Pastel/Fairy Kei Lolitas

Some nice Fairy Kei shops are:

  • SPANK
  • Angelic Pretty
  • Vintage stores
  • Cute can Kill
  • Dellamore (etsy)
  • Milky Way
DRESS AND DAZZLE!
