BBC on Japanese Fashion

BBC did a documentary on Japanese fashion - just to make people aware of their unique sense of style. I've always been fascinated on how they're able to make clothes look good together. Different pieces that you normally wouldn't ever dream of putting on together make a really cute outfit when they're wearing them. I'm so jealous!!

LV's Cassis and Grenade

Louis Vuitton's Epi Collection features two new colors: Cassis and Grenade.

Aren't they both pretty? I really don't like LV's patent leather design. It's so dull and IMO, ugly. The Cassis and Grenade colors make me want to go and buy myself one of these bags and clutches though. Even the belt, wallet and scarf are all so pretty too!

Kimono ga kirei na...

These are Jotaro Saito's Fall 2008 collection, featured during the first day of the Tokyo Fashion Week. I like the prints of the clothes, especially the one that the girl in the fifth picture is wearing. I'd definitely get myself one of these!
