Even though I've never actually gone shopping on another world, it's interesting to see what styles and fashions are popular in other places. This, I believe, is all Earth-- most of the websites I encounter seem to be, and a lot of it looks familiar.

It does make me curious, however. If clothing similar to Fire Nation dress exists on Earth worlds, why am I always stared at when I wear my day clothes in public?

OOC: I AM SO ADDICTED TO THIS WEBSITE YOU HAVE NO IDEA. And I'm not even interested in fashion. Whut.

I think it's because people don't really wear that stuff everyday. Just on special occasions

[identity profile] autobot-girl.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Well if you're on modern Earth, it's old fashion and a lot of people don't wear that stuff anymore unless it's for cultural festivals. Especially if you're not in China.

... I've never been to China. Is it common there, at least?

Probably around the more rural areas and places that are trying to attract tourists.

That's idiotic. There's nothing wrong with dressing this way.

For one, you're royalty, people are going to stare at you if you dress the way you usually do. For another, that stuff you linked is pretty fancy anyway.

I don't always wear my royal robes, or my armor. My day clothes are much more convenient and basic.

You sound like Honoka when she says her house isn't that big.

How is this (http://screenshots.avatarspiritmedia.net/306/023.jpg) fancy compared to this (http://invisiblejohnny.deviantart.com/art/Fire-Lord-Azula-98695411)?

Not compared to your fancy stuff, compared to normal clothes!

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Those are normal clothes.

[identity profile] cannotbelieve.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
There's normal normal and Azula-san normal.

Well, I don't own any peasant clothes.

[identity profile] cannotbelieve.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, I didn't say you had to wear a potato sack or anything!

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Commoner clothes, then.

[identity profile] cannotbelieve.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Geez...

[identity profile] cannotbelieve.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you mean, what?

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you mean, "geez"?

[identity profile] cannotbelieve.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
You're being weird again! Why else?

[identity profile] peoplesprincess.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not weird.

[identity profile] cannotbelieve.livejournal.com 2009-09-07 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Never mind. I can't believe this.

Just because you're rich and strong and have your own country all to yourself doesn't mean you have to look down on everybody else.
