Interview de bloggueuse : Shan Shan !

Aujourd'hui je vous parle de Shan Shan, dont je suis religieusement le blog, Tiny Toad Stool, depuis quelques mois. Avouez qu'elle ne ressemble à personne, que son style est personnel et complètement dément ! Je me suis mise à compulsivement collectionner les chaussettes et les collants un peu tarés depuis que je suis tombée sur elle, mais sur moi, sans les Jeffrey Campbell, ca fait pas pareil.

Here is Shan Shan, the extremely inspiring blogger behind Tiny Toad Stool. Her way of mixing colors and patterns is unique, and her jumping pictures are dreamy. She's a real fashion artist, and she even makes her own hats! Read her interview below!

Can you present yourself and your blog? When did you start blogging, and why? 

I am Shan Shan. My first name is Shan and my last name is Shan, too. I was born and raised in QinTao of China. I live in Osaka, in Japan.

I started to write a blog many years ago, but it started as a place to exchange with my friends.
Though it is very shameful, I had never read any fashion blog before I participated in LB 2 years ago.
I found lots of interesting fashion blogs through LB, and they inspired me to make my fashion blog.

Who inspires you? 

There is no specific person.　

When did your passion for fashion start? 

Since I was a little girl.

 What inspired you to design these cute TinyToadStool hats? How does it feel to see people wearing them? 

Amanita muscaria. The lovely and poisonous-looking mushroom which always come out into picture-books.

of course, I am very glad to see people wearing them from the bottom of my heart.

How much do you spend on clothes every month, on average?

About $300.

When did you start your socks and tights collection? 

I've love tights and socks for a long time, but I started to collect them about 4 years ago.

Are the Jeffrey Campbell shoes really confortable? 

Of course, I have lots of them, because they are very comfortable!

 Where do you find the best vintage pieces? 

Vintage shop in Japan and etsy .

 Your jumping pictures are intriguing: how do you do that?

I used a little remote control and a tripod to take them.
It was easy to do, but not so easy to take exactly what I want.

-How do people react to your style in real life? 

 I am just a textile artist and a house wife in my real life. I think it is best for me.
