As always, if anyone has any other terms they would like to contribute, or if you make a post of your own ideas, please let me know and I will make a master post to link them all together. This weeks post are more officially recognized terms. But, they are still not official terms by any means. 17. Mori Boy Mori Boy is the male variation of the Mori Girl style. The style can contain any variation of Mori Girl influences, and ranges from ethereal, to cool, to just plain mountain man. The layers are still important, and the natural look is still strived for. Some people prefer not to categorize Mori Boy, and instead call all Mori fashion Mori Kei to make it more gender neutral. 18. Dolly Mori Dolly Mori is a mix of Mori Girl with another popular Japanese fashion, Dolly Kei. Dolly Kei tends to contain lots tapestry like fabrics, deeper and richer colors, and looks more like a girl stepping out of a fairy tale rather than a forest. Therefore, Dolly Mori ...

Mori Music Finds: Phildel

Image
Recently a lovely lady in the Mori Music Box facebook group brought to my attention the beautiful artist Phildel. Phildel is a Chinese-Irish singer, who is popular in Britain. Her style is a pop, neoclassicism mix, and is soft and very pleasant to listen to. She is quickly becoming one of my favorite artists, right up there with Popoyans. Have you heard of Phildel? If so, how did you like her music? If not, I hope you enjoy!

Mori Box Unboxing + Video

Hello my deers! Today, I have something super fun to show you! Some of you may know that I participated, and won, the Mori Box  giveaway. My box came in the other day, so I decided to do an unboxing video! I've created a youtube channel just for the occasion. Feel free to subscribe, as I plan to make Mori related videos there from time to time. Here is a close up of all of the things found in my box! The first thing is this adorable postcard. The deer is so precious. Then we have some stickers. Seeing as I have a lot of pen pals, this will definitely come in handy! Next, she included some lovely lace. I'm planning on modifying a dress of mine, and was in need of some lace, so this was perfect. There were lots of little lovely buttons included. They look brass, but are actually a sturdy plastic. And these deer socks are perfect. They're very thick, and warm. And the Nordic pattern is perfect for winter! These house s...

Today's Mori Music find is a special edition for Christmas! I've compiled some of my favorite Mori-esque Christmas music for those of you celebrating this season. 1. Mindy Gledhill I've already posted a previous post on Mindy Gledhill, but her lovely Christmas album, Winter Moon, is definitely worth mentioning. The entire album has a very Mori feel, and includes traditional and more modern Christmas songs. As well as a few originals. Christmas Waltz Little Soldier (Original) Patapan (O Come, O Come Emmanuel) 2. Daniela Andrade Daniela is a singer/songwriter from YouTube who sings mostly covers, with a few originals here and there. She has a very soft and Indie feel, and her Christmas music is no different.

She and Him She and Him is a rather well-known d...

Mori Girl Variations: Part 4

As always, if anyone has any other terms they would like to contribute, or if you make a post of your own ideas, please let me know and I will make a master post to link them all together. And please keep in mind that all these variations have come from my own head, and that they are not officially recognized terms. Here we go! 13.Simplistic Mori: This variation is rather hard for me to explain, but I'll try my best! I basically think of this variation as a smoothed out, no unnecessary frills, kind of Mori. It can border a casual kind of Mori at times, but it still maintains the traditional silhouette. Basically, it's Mori at its minimum. Shortcuttothestars 14.Romantic Mori: This variation contains lots of extra lace and romantic colors. However, the lace is never bulky or OTT, but instead has a more mature and feminine look. It can have many layers or few, but it always maintains it's soft feminine feel. Shortcuttothestars Wardro...
