Chapter 2: New Inspiration

Narrated by Nikki.

Yoyo: Come on, let me take you to my friend’s store!

Narrator: The colorful melody was without end.

Narrator: The waves of people were like schools of colorful fish swimming in this sea for themselves.

Narrator: Walking behind Yoyo, I felt like an unremarkable strand of seaweed, swallowed up in the limitless tides.

Narrator: Yoyo stopped in front of a clothing store with a distinct, extravagant style.

Narrator: The glass facade was full of concert posters, and the door was covered with colorful feathers.

Narrator: Facing a store with such a bold style, I suddenly felt that I didn’t dare to enter.

Yoyo: Here it is, come meet the owner!

Narrator: Yoyo pulled me inside.

Narrator: Inside, it was bright and spacious, and warmly lit by the lamps of all shapes hanging above.

Narrator: The clothes in the store were all hung in this way, too.

Narrator: The bold colors and novel tailoring were showing the designer’s confident and unique style.

Narrator: A man in a suit and a pink vest waved to Yoyo as he walked toward us.

Narrator: He revealed a pair of platforms at least ten centimeters high under the plaid wide-hem skirt.

Narrator: This must be the owner.

Narrator: His eyes paused on me, then flicked over me from head to toe.

Owner: You must be Nikki. Is this your first time coming to The Circles?

Owner: All the clothes here are my own designs; feel free to try whichever you like. I’ll let Yoyo to show you around.

Narrator: Yoyo stuffed several skirts and tops with bright colors and unique shapes into my arms.

Yoyo: Here, try this, and this... and this... and this...

Nikki: These... won’t suit me, don’t you think?

Yoyo: You won’t know until you try.

Narrator: Slowly, I walked out of the dressing room... and in a mirror, saw a brand new me.

Owner: Here, try pairing that with this bag.

Narrator: Unbeknownst to me, the store owner had come to my side. He handed me a small messenger bag shaped like a backpack.

Narrator: The mirror showed me a wilder side of my personality, with the messenger bag adding an unconventional youth to the ensemble.

Nikki: So I can be like this...

Owner: Never thought you could manage this kind of mixed style, did you?

Owner: If you never try, you’ll never know what brilliant possibilities you’re missing. That goes for fitting clothes to clothes, and clothes to people.

Owner: It is this unbridled freshness that has attracted so many young people with strong personalities.

Owner: So it forms the mix and match style exclusive to the Settlement.

Narrator: After leaving the boutique, Yoyo showed me around, but I kept thinking about the mix-match style the boutique’s owner mentioned. What exactly was it?

Choose either “It’s attention-grabbing styles and bright colors” or “It’s the style that takes no restrictions.”

If “attention,” ...

You: It’s attention-grabbing styles with bright, distinct colors.

Narrator: True, the young people here are so brightly dressed, even their hair is in all colors of the rainbow!

If “no restrictions,” ...

You: Mix-match style is the style that takes no restrictions; it’s all about one’s unique personality and expression.

Narrator: True! Here, many people are wearing their clothes inside-out or layering multiple jackets. It really is about one’s unique personality!

--

Narrator: Looking closer at everyone’s outfits, I found that the young people here enjoyed breaking every existing rule about what matched.

Narrator: Their styles and dress were free from restriction and definition. Every fresh thought was mixed in without a thought for rules.

Narrator: I slowly began to understand the core of the mix-match style.

Choose “What’s the core of mix-match style, Nikki?”

You: What’s the core of mix-match style, Nikki?

Narrator: I think, it is that there are no set rules about aesthetic or popular custom...

Narrator: Or, if it needs a definition, the only definition is to break the rules and follow one’s imagination to recklessly express oneself.

Yoyo: If you want to become unique, you need to change your mindset and break the rules of the past.

Yoyo: It’s the same for that design competition, too, Nikki!

Narrator: The answer to the problem that had been troubling me became clear, and a preliminary design slowly formed in my mind.

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love
