Urg ..

La Carmina annoys me so fucking much .. I mean, don't start a blog about fashion if you haven't got the slightest idea on how to dress properly. Honestly, I can't believe that after so much time spent in Japan [where you can see all the street fashion IRL and buy the damn clothes], she still can't coord a single nice outfit. Heck, she even manages to make beautiful clothes look fugly. Most of her brand stuff is pretty but I've yet to see her wear it in a decent way.

And the excuse of being ~*~alternative~*~ doesn't stand here .. There's plenty of way to be original and true to yourself without looking like your closet threw up on you. Plus, she's getting so much recognition for her ''''fashion style''''' .. kinda makes me ashamed to be into japanese fashion as well :\

The sad thing is that I don't actually hate her or her blog. Once in a while she documents pretty interesting stuff and she's a decent writer. I just wish she would improve already with her damn clothes. Though I guess it must be difficult to do so, when almost all of her friends are just as bad looking .. especially that .. thing .. ''Yukiro'' .. come on, learn to put on makeup properly .. cheap eyeliner all over the face =/= good and original makeup.

[also, La Carmina and the Pirates .. come on, just admit it already, you've stole that name from Alice and the Pirates .. wow, way to be original and alternative uh? In America, I'm pretty sure you'd get sued for taking a name so similar for your company]

Yeah I know, random post is random.

[for those who don't know who the hell I'm talking about .. just google her name. I don't wanna link her on my blog]

Nazi loli?

Well, if you are into lolita fashion, you probably saw Metamorphose's new collection : D.walkure. As the name suggests, it's a collection inspired by army uniforms in general, as there are no emblems to be seen exept the Metamorphose one.

You can see the collection here. Why am I linking you to the japanese website? Well, it's because the collection has been taken off from the english website. How come? Apparently, some people complained that it was too ''nazi-like''. Now, of course it is nazi-like. It's also british-army like, and french army like, american army like and name-a-fucking-army like. BECAUSE IT'S ARMY INSPIRED. Honestly guys, stop seeing nazis everywhere .. And then try to hide them. Yes, nazis existed, yes they did horrible things, but there's no need to demand that a fashion brand takes off their clothes from their website because it somewhat looks nazi, even though we can't see any swastikas.

I think some people complained about the eagle, which, as you know, is another symbol that has been used by the nazi army. Well, newsflash : the eagle as been used as a symbol of power by pretty much every empire, ever. The roman empire, the prussians, the austrians, hell, the AMERICANS. So yeah, no big deal with the eagle, it's a common symbol and doesn't not represent exclusively the nazis.

I don't even know why it bothers me so much. In any case, I think it's pretty stupid to demand that the brand takes off the clothes from the english website just because some people were offended. If you don't like it, don't buy it, that's all. Especially since it wasn't more nazi than any other army-inspired outfits.

Anyway, I'll end my rant now .. real post about my life later :B
