理解も支持もできないトレンドがたまにある。今回は「ブスカワイイ」 The Beauty I Cannot Get Behind: “Ugly-but-cute” Busu Kawaii Trend
I don’t have to be a cheerleader for Japan and “like” EVERYTHING that comes out of it. Without constructive criticism we wouldn’t have evolution and nothing would change (and without evolution we wouldn’t have cronuts, iPad DJs and all-in-one dryer/washing machines.

Registration Deadline For Tokyo Fashion Week SS 2014 Coming up Sooner Than You Think
東京ファッションウィークの登録締切が迫ってきてる！とみんなに声をかけると同時に今回のブランドラインアップをチェック！ The email from Mercedes Benz Tokyo Fashion Week official account has been starred in my inbox for about a month, kinda staring me in the face.

NYCの新OPENクラブがバブリーな東京を再現：STARDUST LOUNGE at MAISON O。こっちの方の東京が実物よりエネルギッシュに輝くかも？！ I’ve always thought that Tokyo needed to look like “Tokyo”. I mean, there’s this image of Tokyo being wild and crazy and pretty weird and then when people actually come, they may be disappointed to find that it’s quite tame and conservative. When stylish people come to the city, they
VOGUE Japan Gets With The Program and Features Cool Locals in “A Vision of Freedom”
VOGUE日本がめったにフィーチャーしないローカルなアイコンたちをピックアップ！ペリ、ひらり、Tiffany C、栗原類、アミアヤ… It can’t be denied that magazines are an extremely important part of the fashion landscape here in Tokyo.

おりがみとファッションの関係：華やか、エッジ、ハイテク、そして革新的。ディオール、三宅、ヘルペンとジュンナカオ。 I seem to be on an origami kick lately, and that’s the internet’s fault… because one photo leads to another, and one website link leads to another….and next thing I know I`m knee deep in amazing photos and designs that make me drop my jaw. Fashion has been inspired by the art craft of origami for eons… in
