Putting on the skirt.

If you are a man, And if you are very careful about your appearance, you would be interested in putting on the skirt.

I have seen the men who wears the skirt a few times in Yamanashi University. One man's fashion style looks like a hippie. He was wearing some unusual clothes and accessories. Another man was properly dressed. And it seems that he was a smart dresser. Today, Some high-quality brand products various skirt for men as modern fashion. And we will able to buy some nice skirt for men in the secondhand clothes stores or the outlet stores. But I think it is difficult to take in the skirt in our fashion styles.

Do you know the kilt? Kilt is the traditional cloth in Scotland. Scotsmen wears it when they take part in some formal events. And they don't wear the underwear when they put on it. I was surprised about it!!

Putting on the skirt of man is interesting. I especially like the kilt because it is very cute. I would like to put on it someday.

☆Oshare-megane☆

 Do you know oshare-megane? In Japan, glasses are more popular now. Even someone who has good eyesight wears glasses with no lenses. Black spectacle frames came into fashion. Glasses have developed recently. Why are glasses more popular? There are two reasons.

 First, there are many people who have a fetish about glasses. Some girls think that I’m kind of interested in boys who wear glasses, he will be good-looking if he wears glasses. Boys think that, too. Man who wears glasses is called ‘megane-danshi’. Woman who wears glasses is called ‘megane-jyoshi’. Megane means glasses, danshi means man and jyoshi means woman in Japan. Book which name is megane-danshi are sold in Japan. This book takes notice in Japan.

Second, if you wear glasses, you can change your looks and images. Also, if you change your glasses of wearing to suit the occasion, you may enjoy your fashion more and more. For example, you look striking when you go working, or you are all fired up for your fashion when you go to party, you are casual when you have private time. You can change your glasses more easy than change clothes if you want to change your looks and images.

 In Japan, glasses are more popular now. So I have oshare-megane. It’s very cute glasses which frame is a flower pattern, but color is cool. If I wear the glasses, I can change more casual and cute. Let’s try to get oshare-megane if you have chance!! Then you may change your image and looks!!

"Ganguro" girls in Japan!

Today, I will talk about "ganguro" fashion in Japan.

Do you know "ganguro"? It was the most popular fashion among young girls about 10 years ago. In Japanese, "gan" means face and "guro" means black. As that word means, "ganguro" is people who make up black like pictures. Somehow, they make up white only around eyes and mouth. I think they looks like the reverse panda. You may think they are very strange, but there were many "ganguro" especially in Shibuya. Of course, I was not.

What do you think about "ganguro"? It's funny fashion, isn't it? I want to know American fashion:) Please teach me ♪

Cosplay is very fun!

Hello! Today,I talk about Japanese fashion, especially "Cosplay"!! Do you know Cosplay? It is a shortened form of the English word "costume play". Lovers of animations or video games get into the characters. This event started in Japan and now, it spread all over the world. I found that Cosplay is very popular in some countries for one of the Japanese culture.

In the U.S, people have disguised in Halloween for a long time, but Cosplay means mainly disguising such as animation characters in Japan. And Cosplayers are usually in the special events, for example, the comic markets or the live concert halls. I have told in my blog yet, in my school festival, we have a costume parade. In the parade, many people do Cosplay!

One of the most famous Cosplayer is Shoko Nakagawa. Do you know her? She is very cute but crazy about animations. She is very popular idle and she has spread "Cosplay" in Japan. I yearn for her.^^* And she is a queen of blog in Japan. Her blog is very amusing and I recommend you looking it. In her blog, she publishes many her pictures and sometimes she does Cosplay!

School uniform

Hi! I am Makiko. Today, I introduce uniform of high school in Japan. American students don't wear uniforms at their high schools,but many Japanese high school students wear uniforms to their high schools. Japanese high school students have duties to wear the uniforms when they go to high schools. Some of high school students hate the uniform of high school because they wants to dress in civilian clothes. But I like uniforms because I don't have to think about what to wear every morning.
There are all kinds of Japanese high school's uniform. A jacket and a tartan skirt or pants are very popular. I think it is very cute!! Please check this picture. Do you like Uniform of Japanese high school?

Otaku fashion

Today, I talk about otaku fashion.

Otaku tend to wear glasses, because they abuse their eyes to play TV game and read comics very often. In addition, most of them are fat and pale skin, because they don't play sports and they are in the house in long time.

Also, they don't wear the trendy clothes, and they wear the clothes which are nerdy, and they wear them by their own method. For example, they tend to put a shirts in pants,

By the way, I don't mind whether they are nerdy or not.
