Day one: 10 things about your mori bubble

I'm not quite sure what this means... My small sphere of mori knowedge? 

1. I do not know any mori girls in real life...just through the internet, how sad. Though I wouldn't expect to see many in Texas.
2. I do not own any mori-brand clothing, but I am looking at a particular apron by SM2. My mori wardrobe is very small in general.
3. I'm currently watching the live-action version of the Honey & Clover movie, but I can't seem to find a working video for part 7/8...T_T
4. I am interested in creating more mori-themed photography and illustration.
5. I searched Good Will today for mori-able clothing to no avail, but found pastel Junior Mints at the grocery store next door for 80 cents~
6. I loved air-mail themed items.
7. Besides mori, I love classic lolita, dolly-kei and cult-party kei style.
8. All of my school supplies for this incoming school year is mori themed, including this pencil case from Sweet Macaron.
9. I think over-sized overalls with rolled legs paired with leather lace-ups and lace-topped socks make an adorable mori outfit!
10. I want Tasha Tudor's garden when I grow up.

Day one is completed :)
