Mori girl papier

Just a few snaps and  since the magazine talks for itself. Not much wording that needs translating (concerning general Mori knowledge).
Plus, Mori girl papier is not like Mori girl note, which gives guidelines and tips about being a mori. This one is more like any other magazine featuring any other style.

This time we got Aya Hirayama on the cover. Who you can also find on Poupee with her own "shop"! Not very mori over there though! hehe
(btw, if anyone's interested in playing Poupee and wants an invite from me, just leave me a note here!)

The magazine features French Lippée a lot this time. Which is a brand I must talk about soon. It's like a mori Tsumori Chisato! Adorable, pretty, cute!

Looks like more vivid colors (not just pastels as we were used to)  will appear in summer. Just, as layered as before. So keep your cool and keep cold in the forest.

Foot wear- sandals, pumps and clogs
Mori girls know how to be cute and stay fresh!

A good mori girl of course loves a good DIY! I adore magazines with DIY articles!

Coordinate inspiration.

And of course hair inspiration. For all lenghts!

No post about Mori without a bit of MEG tehee

There's also a mini-guide of shops/cafés/bookstores in the magazine. Which are incredibly useful if you're in Tokio. But incredibly cruel if you can't go! haha

You can already get Mori gilr papier vol. 4 in the download section!
Plus, all the files I've been uploading for the blog, and a few new magazines (highlighted in bold).

And btw! The blog got featured on Sugar Plum Kawaii! Thank you very much girl!
Now go see the entry and all the cuteness around the blog <3

Mori girl for autumn/fall /winter

I know this post is late. VERY late. And I'm sorry about that! I don't know how this happened, but I didn't see Mori girl papier vol.4 neither Mori girl lesson nº3 until a few days ago (phew, this post took so long to get written! haha), that's why I didn't post about it until now.
This issue is supposed to talk about mori girl in the autumn/fall, but you can always use these tips in winter too.

I made a little glossary post of recurrent japanese words you come across when reading magazines, so check it if you're interested! Most of those words are used in this post/magazine hehe

Well, here she is, our (my) favorite mori girl, MEG!

The magazine features a few popular (I suppose, since the only girl featured I know is MEG) mori girls and their style.
Oops, I couldn't resist posting MEG scans!

Before reading: there are a lot of interesting topics in this issue (new brands, coordinates, ...) BUT, I'm only gonna focus on the mori girl lessons in this post, since there are a lot of images to show. Plus, translations in this post are only guidelines, I'm not translating everything the lessons say neither my japanese is good enough to do so.
(I only want to say, btw, my knowledge of the japanese language is very limited, so these translations are quite loose and don't have to be taken as completely correct. I'll try to translate everything the best I can though)

2-ぺたんこストラップシューズでガーリーに
Girly flat strap shoes.


3-トレッキングブーツはお散歩には欠かせません
Trekking shoes are indispensable to go on a stroll.


I like magazines that help you define a style/trend and give you ideas on how to coordinate things, but everything loses a bit of its magic when you change the word "guidelines" for "musts". So I'd like everyone to take all this as reference to help make and/or develop your own mori style.
And avobe all, have fun dressing up!

Your thoughts on all this? Are you up for being a mori girl this winter too?
