Style Meme -- Reblog about your personal style
brad-t:
I’m hoping that by creating this I can meet some more people who have a style in their personal lives. Surely there are many blogs on Tumblr run by girls who will reblog McQueen and Chanel picture incessantly, but I’m more interested in seeing how people on Tumblr actually dress.
So, please reblog this post so I can find more cool stylish people on Tumblr!

The Miyuki-zoku: Japan’s First Ivy Rebels
Long article, but absolutely worth it for the glimpse into early Japanese street fashion.
