First got wind of this style from Tokyo Fashion and Art Factory. It is sorta Bohemian porcelain doll gypsy; kind of a crossroads between mori girl and lolita.



Gibbous fashions is kind of a Western equivalent of this:

I love everything about this picture and how it goes with the autumn leaves in the background <3 Dandy and doll-like at the same time, a bit Oliver Twist?

On a similar aesthetic note:

So here are some more artists on deviantart that I enjoy:

http://klar.deviantart.com << One of the first artists I started watching when I joined the site back in '04; I think I prefer her older more simple stuff like these:





She does anthro art, but classily.

http://fresh4u.deviantart.com << Love her black and white splashy inky ethereal Ben Templesmith meets shounen manga style.



http://ya-na.deviantart.com << Russian artist, hella talented. Surreal and inspired by Japanese monsters and myths.

some shout outs

Several months ago, someone called 'peach tutu' added me on blogspot. I appreciated the add but they didn't have a blog, so I assumed it was a stranger.

Now I check back, look at the blog and who does it turn out to be?

My sister. HAHA LOLWUT

Here is her blog:

Another shout out I would like to make is of a graphic designer I know, Lisa who just finished her degree:

It's a small site but full of clever typography stuff and fun with colours.

lookbook

As nice as some of these outfits are, these people do not look rugged up enough for below zero temperatures. I couldn't manage even 10 degree weather in some of these 'winter fashions'. @_@

tights do not warm the legs, trust me I've tried...
