About the PhotographerInspired by the stunningly creative street fashion that exploded on the streets of Tokyo and Osaka in the late 1990’s, photo-journalist Kjeld Duits launched JAPANESE STREETS in 2002. This makes JS one of the first fashion blogs on the net, and the very first to cover Japanese street fashion.

He’s changed! I suited black hair I must say. Those shoes are a lethal weapon.

@Kjeld: I know right? Also it should have been “he suited” not “I suited”. xD

@Vivi: OMG! I COMPLETELY agree! I was just about to mention that. They are gorgeous! Long and slender, sort of like what I’d expect a pianists hands to look like.
@Kjeld: Was he tall?

@Kjeld:
!!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!
His hands and knowing that he’s tall make him SOOOOO attractive to me!
I love tall guys!!!!
Even though I’m short hahahaha.
I’m pretty much the height of an average Japanese girl (130 cm). Wow. I’m realizing how truly short that is….

Is 130 cm about the average height of a Japanese girl?

@Kjeld:
Wow.
FYI, I’m an idiot. i converted it wrong lol.
I’m 5’1 (61 inches), which is about 158 cm.
But I converted from 51 inches, and I ended up getting 130 cm.
I feel so stupid.
Anyways, yeah….

@Kjeld: LOL!
I think that’s hilarious that you knew already!
Although to be honest, I know a girl at my school (I don’t know her personally, I just know her because she’s in my grade and I see her around) and she’s so tiny that it’s quite possible that she may be 130 centimeters. She’s Japanese too, which I find quite ironic in this situation.
Lol and what do you mean, “at Japanese streets WE already thought”. Lol were there other people contemplating along with you?

@Etsune & KD: Definitely, no one is born knowing something, maybe you born with the talent but If you never try it you’ll never know.
btw, are those shows like private or something like that?

@Kjeld: [about the photography thing]
That’s true….
Maybe I should learn….
So are you a fulltime photographer, or do you just photograph as a side thing?
