Inspired 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.

Loved the earrings and tights! I HAD to google Bunkaya because the bag is so cool, I found great things from the store :D

Wow I really want one of those backpacks! Was it made out of a coffee bean bag?

@MissMolly: It looks like it, doesn’t it. Bunkaya Zakkaten’s online shop soesn’t seem to carry it anymore. But there are still lots of other fun things to order. By the way, you can use the White Rabbit Express ordering service to have them purchase things for you, even if you don’t read any Japanese!

I hope this isn’t a bother or anything but could you translate this for me? ありがとうございます♡ <— Juria tweeted me and I’m dying to know what she said.

@AJ & Lil : Thank you, Lil. Aj, have you used Google Translate already? The translations are often a bit weird and cryptic, but short words like this one offer no problems. ^_-

I love that her outfit is very modern; simple and bold. The over-sized blouse and tights are perfect together. ^^

@Amber: Totally agree. And then those bold stripes on the oversized shirt. It hits you in the face, but in a good way.

The blouse and tight complete each other. I don’t know if you change one of them. Ah, It’s so perfect!
