F R U I T S C A K E - A Japanese Fashion Lover's Paradise
 
Hey guys! I'm new here, and I am ready to make new friends. I was hoping I could make some kind of thread dedicated to something, like a style of clothing. I adore clothing, especially Japanese street fashion like lolita, decora, ect. So here I am, looking for others who love this different style of clothing as much as I do.

Because I have no idea how this area's unspoken rules work, I'll just go do things my way.

Come in, chat, discuss Japanese fashion, make friends. To introduce yourself tell me your favorite styles.

My favorite clothing styles are
-Decora
-Lolita
-Himegyaru

Now, have fun!

Oh man I forgot an intro, so I'll post it here.

My name is Katie, I'm 14 and live in Oregon. I would LOVE to dress in decora and lolita every day, but my mom is very fashion-forward and would kill me if I left the house "looking like that".

I do get to wear decora for Hallowen though, so that'll be fun.

Oooh! There's a new manga out - gothic sports <3 G-lol football team for the win!

I had a friend who was really REALLY into gothic lolita fashion. I thought it was pretty cool myself but I don't really know anything about the "lifestyle" as I've seen some call it. LOL

I think gothic lolita fashion is probably what most people know about since it's very popular. What's "decora" and "himegyaru"?

s w e e t &amp; SPLENDID 10-12-2007 07:51 PM

Decora is a fashion where you pretty much wear as many layers of clothing as you can- socks, shirts, skirts, hair clips, jewelery, everything! It's also very bright and is supposed to use colors that look good together.

It's sometimes called decorer.

Also, I like sweet lolita better than gothic lolita.

Hello, I'm 21 and I wear lolita, I can't stick to just one style though. Right now my favorites are wa, sweet, classic, and punk, though I started out as a gothic lolita. I also tend to be told I live the lolita lifestyle, though I have always lived the way I do, just changed my clothing. I also love the aristocratic style and boystyle.

Wa-lolita is adorable as well, I love it <3333

Big sweeping kimono sleeves with a poofy loli skirt? Yesplz.

Hello, my name is Little. My favorite would have to be lolita... I don't really wear it much, but I just think it's amazing!

s w e e t &amp; SPLENDID 10-12-2007 09:49 PM

It is, isn't it? I LOVE finding Victorian-inspired clothing, so finding lolita was like a goldmine for me.

Pink is my favorite color too, so that was even better ;D

littleaes 10-12-2007 09:50 PM

Mine's green, but pink is a really cute color =D

s w e e t &amp; SPLENDID 10-12-2007 09:53 PM

I've always been very girly. I love pink, hearts, unicorns, lace, ect xD

I'm like a five-year-old girl ;D

I want to wear loli every day but it's SO expensive D:

president wakame 10-12-2007 09:54 PM

I don't know if I have ANY loli which sucks... But it's too expensive for me anyway and I'm broke. But I make my own sorta fashions anyway... I just need a pink skirt so I can make it more loli xD

s w e e t &amp; SPLENDID 10-12-2007 10:01 PM

My mom thinks it's weird to dress up like a little Victorian girl. It's not! D:

I love finding cheap lolita-ish things. Like at Target their current featured designer is this lady whose stuff is SO utterly Victorian I want to buy it all. There's this black vest that is perfect Kodana, it has golden buttons and everything <3333

I have a skirt and a top from her, my top is navy blue with black buttons and lace on the top half of it.

i made alot of my egl clothes,all you need is a thrift store,alot of lace,and a big imagination!i usually hand sew it all too(i suck sewing machines :? )i come out with some pretty cool stuff,and thrift store usually have a lot of great clothes.i once found a pair of black knee high steel toe boots for like 5 bucks,and they have lots of great jackets that can be easily alterted,the only stuff i would buy are shoes,or stuff that i really can't make,and a few accseories,like those little top hats!

There's a thrift store near me that I'm trying to get my dad to take me to this weekend. We might go tomorrow.

littleaes 10-12-2007 10:20 PM

I don't even know where there's a thrift store by me xD

s w e e t &amp; SPLENDID 10-12-2007 10:29 PM

I've lived in this area for a long time and realized there was one on a street I go down all the time. I saw it for the first time maybe a week ago and I felt like a dork for not noticing it xD

littleaes 10-12-2007 10:32 PM

lol I should pay more attention and find one! Now if only I knew the name of one xD

s w e e t &amp; SPLENDID 10-12-2007 10:34 PM

Yeah I'm in the car and I look over and see a sign that says "Thrift Store" and I freaked out.

"Wait, there's a thrift store here?!"
"Yeah it's been there for years."
"Are you kidding me?!"
