Their clothing looks as though it has come direct from the 1960 through some time warp and while I love looking back on 1960's fashion and fashion inspired by the 1960's it is now 2017 and that is where the women of today belong in my opinion.<br /><br />When I see these images, I totally understand why the Crown Princess has struggled with Royal life. Crown Princess Masako must be an incredibly strong and resilient woman.<br />It's me!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02065973857320702215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065972902087062391.post-88954199902220634282017-01-14T21:35:40.905+00:002017-01-14T21:35:40.905+00:00Since they are japanese I think they will not list...Since they are japanese I think they will not listen to "chinese democracy" by Guns'n'roses...<br /><br />Coraliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05110481473035424745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065972902087062391.post-19028789897188276902017-01-14T20:13:39.263+00:002017-01-14T20:13:39.263+00:00Oooo I love AC/DC ~ just aged myself LOL Rock ...Oooo I love AC/DC ~ just aged myself LOL Rock 'n Roll forever 👊🙆✌Diane Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02018830629685799985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065972902087062391.post-85292514008804089542017-01-14T20:12:07.653+00:002017-01-14T20:12:07.653+00:00Omg you all are killing me ... 😂😂😂😂😂😂 but pl...Omg you all are killing me ... 😂😂😂😂😂😂 but please no swords 😋Diane Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02018830629685799985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065972902087062391.post-43634310499509886992017-01-14T16:10:59.803+00:002017-01-14T16:10:59.803+00:00No, Chelsea.

The only poetry from Japan that I have read is Haiku which is so disciplined and distilled, very lovely stuff. You want to show the joy or feeling you get when reading it. But their way is so much quieter.<br /> Other times they are in a frenzy at some festivals. Hard to figure out. You want to give the women more freedom to show originality in dress and behavior.
