 This may sound stupid, but do you know any places where they'd sell asian clothing in the US?  When I saw a lot of these styles, I thought that they were really adorable. Ohh. And I also am not allowed to order online. -mumbles something about a weird mom-+ [ http://www.asiajam.com/ ] |

Haha I wear stuff like that, but I live in Japan so I find a lot of stores like that. I suggest you find different pieces of clothing and just layer. That's basically what they do in the first place. ;]

you live in the us right?
one thing i learned about asian clothing is that it's really hard to find the right size. the waist might fit but the bust and hips are too tight. but i really love the boho-ish look. |

Find an outfit you like, find the pieces of clothing in different stores, put it together. Voila. |

Buy a few plain or decorated tank tops, long shirts, cute belts and bows. Put it all together. Just.. use your imagination.

look on the website to find general styles and pieces that you like, and then try places like H&M and forever 21 to find similar pieces or styles

pretty much like what everone else said: forever 21, h&m, wetseal, charlotte russe, rampage, etc. not 100% where you can find 100% authetic asian clothing depending on where you live, but in my area there's this store (i can't remember the name) but they import clothing from asia, but its only that one store that i know of and sometimes chinatowns have them

Well...I don't know if there's a store near you called PAPAYA..but there's one here in VA. it's owned by these korean people, and the clothes look exactly like clothes you'd find in asian countires (well. somewhat.)...and they already sort of have the clothes layered for you alreaedy.
Um...if there's not a store near you called papaya...try Delias Wet Seal Charlotte Russe Forever 21 Rave/Lola LVLX um. that's all i can think of right now, but i'm sure there are more :] go cruising around the mall, and look for stores that have that kind of vintage look. |

You would probably find the largest variations at Charlotte Russe & Forever21. But you could also go to stores like Papaya, Luxie, and Pink Dust. (If they have them where you live.) They're asian owned so it's a bit different. Also, alot of the tanks on that site are similar to ones they sell at Brass Plum (BP) of Nordstrom's. I would definitely check BP because they have high quality clothes at a little bit over normal prices. But they ARE worth it. (& if you go during sales, half the clothes are cheaper than like American Eagle or Abercrombie!) Hot Topic will also have some great shirts for layering on the top. I'm not kidding.

yeah. i love that style. but hey, i love ANY style. just depends on the day of the week.
try wet seal. they have a lot of odd pieces like that. sometimes in hot topic, uh what else.. forever 21, delias, alloy, &thrift stores. you`d be surprised. when you go shopping just take clippings & pictures of things you like. |

the look is created more like taking a plain black skirt and use laced ribbon to make it more interesting...
the look is kinda hot topic with a&f or hollister... try mixing and matching those stores. and of course the ribbon craft store to accesorise |
