List of Interestingness: Volume I x 3

ART/PHOTOGRAPHY




This is part of a beautiful photographic series entitled Wonderland, by Kirsty Mitchell in memory of her mother who passed away from brain cancer. The series was shot entirely in Surrey, in the woodlands surrounding Kirsty's home. Visit The Daily Mail for the rest of Kirsty's story, and explore the rest of Kirsty's Wonderland on her website.


FILM



I'm Jin-Young follows the story of a little girl, whose name is Jin-Young (Byun), who can't wait to grow up. She's tired of boys and girls her age, she just wants to move on, get married, and be done with it. This feeling of wanting to grow up fast is enhanced when she meets the friend of her mother, Hyun-ji (Kim)... and falls in "love" with her. 

It's an intensely cute and endearing movie that touches on issues of sexual identity and growing up!


FASHION


Here's introducing the different styles of Lolita fashion there are! For those who're uninitiated, Lolita fashion is a fashion subculture originating in Japan that is based on Victorian-era clothing, but the style has expanded greatly beyond Japan. The Lolita look began primarily as one of modesty with a focus on quality in both material and manufacture of garments. The original silhouette is of a knee length skirt or dress with a "cupcake" shape assisted by petticoats, but has expanded into various types of garments including corsets and floor length skirts. Blouses, knee high socks or stockings and headdresses are also worn. What do you think of Lolita fashion? Cute or creepy?
