Another one of my vintage-girly outfits, inspired by citrus colors. And I still haven’t gotten over peter pan collars and wearing socks with heels, as you can see. They’re still everywhere in Japanese magazines.
Yummy green...

fabric + maxi
(Kamiseta Limited dress, Patch Avenue heels) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
The fabric of this maxi dress is just so soft and beautiful that it makes it so hard to resist feeling or touching it every so often. I rarely buy anything from Kamiseta but turns out they released some really awesome limited dresses last summer! I think I’ll try to get my hands on the butterfly...

pink/cream/brown + F21 anniversary
(Forever 21 sweater, shorts, and headband, H&M shoes, Maria Allen customized necklace, Japanese brand socks from somewhere) Hype this look on Lookbook here.
In love with the combination of brown, cream and pink nowadays because there’s something effortlessly sweet about it without having to explicitly wear skirts and heels that scream femininity.
Special thanks to Maria Allen...

Apparently, these are the most popular designs in Japan right now, and you can see them all over Japanese magazines such as as Popteen and Popsister. These are 15mm, perfect for people who really...
