Mori girl boom
The Mori Girl entry on 8tokyo.com is the most popular one in these days. Now some of Mori Girl magazines and photoboooks are published.
Those books confuse the meaning of Mori girl. I thought Mori Girl means fashion style like a girl living in forest. but now it is a little urbanized.

I did enjoy them, though.
