Fashion | Liz Lisa (リズリサ) Autumn 2015 Collection (Japanese Fashion)

Hi all!

I honestly had no idea you guys liked my Japanese fashion posts so much, until I saw that my 2013 Liz Lisa post was one of my top 10 most popular posts! So, thank you, that's awesome  *(*´∀｀*)☆

So, here's my follow up! Liz Lisa's Autumn 2015 collection, which boasts the theme "Innocent French Girl". Let's take a look d(^^*)

Phew! One thing I don't like about these Japanese fashion posts is that the pictures on the websites are always blocked or grouped together, so 90% of the time, no matter what brand I'm doing, I have to do a vast amount of cutting and resizing in order for the pictures to look good on my blog.

But I digress ahahaha. Look at how pretty this Autumn collection is! I'm loving how much of a transition this collection offers for people, with clothing you can wear at the end of summer until the beginning of winter. It's all about the transitions! Darker floral patterns, sweatshirts and jumpers, and layering, including THOSE TRENCHCOATS, oh my god ahahaha  (｡♥‿♥｡)

I'm usually not that big a fan of Liz Lisa clothing as it's just too much on the feminine and frilly side for me, but this Autumn collection is just so nice! Although, the skirts are a little much for me personally. I like the muted, neutral tones combined with the darker maroons, navies, and black, I think they provide a nice contrast as well as showing that transition from summer colours and clothing to autumn and winter colours and clothing. I think they offset each other really nicely to make a lovely outfit, and with the right layering you could wear any of these items of clothing at any time during the year.

What do you think of this collection? Are you a fan of Liz Lisa's clothing? Are there any brands (not just Japanese!) with Autumn/Winter collections that you're loving right now? Let me know in the comments below!

Fashion | Liz Lisa (リズリサ) Autumn 2013 Collection (Japanese Fashion)

Concept: Royal Wonderland French Retro & Pop. All pictures taken from the from the Liz Lisa Kawaii Magazine on the Liz Lisa official website.

Liz Lisa is of course slightly iconic when it comes to gyaru fashion, practically everyone has heard of this brand so of course I had to take a sneaky peek at their Autumn and Winter Collection! I love it! It's oh so cute but still with a mature style, and I love the colours that they've been using, particularly the mauve-toned browns in their checked dresses. I also love the brown and cream-toned beiges and camel colours they've used, everything looks so nice!

The things I particularly love are the checked dresses and shorts, I think they're absolutely adorable and really versatile, you could dress them up or down for day or night, office wear, you name it. I'm not a fan of getting my legs out at any time so I'd of course wear tights with them, but I think that'd still be fitting as it's an A/W collection, and going bare legged in a British Winter is not a possibility ahahahaha. I think the jump suits would be more suitable for the cold weather with the long pant legs, plus they're just amazing; they look so smart but so stylish, I'd feel happy wearing one of them any time of the day :) The jackets are super cute as well, although I'm not as big a fan of the trench coat sadly, but that's just my personal taste in coats, I'm more of a black and boring coat girl ahaha.

I want to take this whole separate paragraph to talk about the shoes in this collection. I don't normally go gaga over shoes, I've only worn two pairs this whole year, but OH MY GOD. Those shoes look gorgeous!! I'm a massive fan of the platforms you can see in the first few pictures, but then I'm also a massive fan of the wedges and platform trainers in the next few pictures. There are shoes in this collection for any and every occasion, and I want them all!! Someone buy me those platform heels and platform trainers, pretty please :'( </3

I'd say Liz Lisa were more renowned for their super cute, super frilly, more Hime gyaru style. However, I feel now that the design of Liz Lisa's clothing has matured slightly over the years, and while there is still some lace, the lack of it in this collection compared to some of their previous ones is quite stark, and there's only fluff on a couple of pairs of shoes as far as I can see. I managed to find an image of Liz Lisa's 2009 Autumn & Winter Collection for comparison, which you can see below.

Practically every single item in the image above has lace on it, and there's fur lined coats, hats, boots, neck warmers, etc., and the brown colour theme is a lot darker, although there a couple of smart pieces still. I'd say that this 2013 collection is leaning more towards Otana gal style, whilst still keeping everything kawaii ahahaha. Liz Lisa seem to have moved away from how they've designed and styled previous collections, such as the 2009 one above, and brought in a more mature, but still super cute range of A/W clothing. 

I wrote a lot again ahahahaha, sorry!! :') What do you think of Liz Lisa's 2013 Autumn & Winter Collection? Do you like gyaru and Japanese fashion? Leave a comment and let me know! :)
