Those girl are pretty and sexy and I like on how to handle there outfit. I think Japan is one of the most creative outfit design in the world of fashion.

I don't understand why the boots are "fashionable", But I will say however that the ones in the links of "Hollywood starlets" are just medieval boots, and, assuming you won't be on your feet all day, are some the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn in my life. they're like cool, breathable, leather socks, with a soft rubber sole. Crazy comfy. They do however look retarded with modern clothing. Lol.

Also, don't mind me, I'm a crazy medieval history/re-enactment dude, guy, thing.

That was a very informative article, thanks!
Now I *know* I'm a hopeless case as far as fashion is concerned. ^^"

I like the chiffon dress too. It has to be nice to see girls/women wearing bright colors on the streets. It's interesting to see how colors, shapes and materials considered as "fashionable" vary from one country to another. I mean in France, it can get really random. A friend of mine got told that she looked good in that light shade of grey/brown called "mole". To say she wasn't flattered would be a rather big understatement.

A lot of people are into colored skinny jeans where I live, but all I really care about are socks. Knee socks to be exact. Over-the-knee-socks are my favorites! There are so many different styles of them too! . . . Okay, maybe I'm being a little weird, sorry!

Ditto. I don't think those clothes would suit me either, specially when all my outfits are the total opposite.-_-

I never would have thought of that! Thank you! When I go shopping in a few days I'll definitely give those a try...

Thanks for the suggestions! Unfortunately, these are the types of clothes that look great on cute Asian girls, but look rediculous on me (a medium-sized white American girl). Why is that? :)

http://www.honeyee.com/

is my favourite japanese fashion site, it's mainly male orientated though.

warning, if you think spending £300 or so on a pair of jeans is ridiculous that website is not for you.

>.< I like the fringe boots.. but I live in the prairies and I love boots, so I guess it was inevitable.

The article was great! The trends in Japan look so effortless.. and I guess you would need a certain personal aesthetic to pull it off

You're welcome! Make sure to check out the three websites in the first paragraph, as well, for more ideas. Have fun in Japan!

You could always try some cobalt blue or something closer to normal denim color, if you wanted. You'd be surprised how well red can work, too :D

Oh, this is so handy! Thanks for writing an article on current fashion trends! I'm going to Japan in two weeks, so I'm doing all my shopping tomorrow. I was wondering what trends were going on at the moment so I'd know what to buy. Thanks so much!

A lot of it is really cute, but I myself am not that fashion forward...I can't really see myself pulling off colored denim...Does black count?!

...EVERYTHING comes back in style eventually... *sigh*

Neon windbreakers?! 90s much? XD

I don't know. I like the colored denim and the blazers.
