i adore FRUiTS magazine... it is one of the few things in life that causes me to actually respect the use of capitalization (the others would be formal letters and the GazettE ;p). when my sister and i first became interested in japanese street fashion, we were all over the decora look, which is a constant feature in FRUiTS even today. i love flipping through the new issue each month and seeing what everyone here in california is gonna be wearing next... cuz lets face it: we are never gonna beat japanese girls when it comes to fashion.
so i thought i'd flip through and pick out what really struck me as awesome this month. all photo credits go to FRUiTS, and i apologize for the crappy quality... i don't have a scanner, lol... <3
ok, screw saving the best for last, i eat dessert first dude. this is my absolute favorite photo this month. its just epic.
i love the color combination of army green and petal pink- i would neeeeever think to put those two together, but they work so well. and the stripey tights are so cool.... graphic tights and leggings are having a big moment in japan it seems.
case in point...
oh, look! roadkillers can help you out with the graphic leggings trend with these way cutie cute hearts print longjohns! seriously adorable right?! they are size medium and available here!
yes. i shamelessly plugged my own store. kiss.
another trend that seems to be blowing up both here and in japan is pastels... i fail at pastels so bad. as i described to my cousin the other day, when i wear pastels i look like i'm on my way to an easter lynching. not cool.
however, a lot of success in pulling something off is achieved in how you wear it. super short, nancy spungen-gone-good looks in ice cream hues? perfect. <3
