Pfft, I know why Seal is performing, his wife’s a VS model :P

LOL. Found this website that sells men’s underwear with some very funny Engrish slogans called e-cmd.com:

Crap me deadly?? ROFL!

I’d buy these cute under wears just because they’re extremely hilarious. Here’s another bestseller suggestion from me to CMD: how about writing words like “SEXY BEAST” on your under wears? I am sure many ppl will buy it for their boyfriends or for themselves if they so please. If it works, I am entitled to 5% of profits of every under wear you sell. :P

I thought I’d just share a couple of pictures of cute lingerie with you. I really like Victoria Secrets’ but they’re SO expensive. Anyhow, I found some cute ones from AsiaJam. It isn’t exactly VS standard but it’s cheap enough to rip and buy summore :P

The hosiery or tights or stockings or leggings (depending on which continent you’re from) is making a comeback in the fashion trends of Japan. Why? I don’t know know because I asked the same thing too. While I own a pair of black opaque stockings ( i do own a couple of others transparent ones – i like those), which i wear with my dress and mary janes, I cannot fathom wearing red and white striped stockings for example and risk looking like a character from the circus show. But, that’s just my taste in fashion, however, I am sure there are those who lurvee these stockings! :)

I admit, they are cute but they’re not very suitable for daily wear in my opinion. Argh…i’m partial in my comments because i don’t like most of them. Another thing i don’t like is leggings that are also toe-socks. OMG, i hate seeing toes wiggling in their individual toe snugs…it looks like an alien from outer space! Okay..Okay… let’s look at some of these hosieries, leggings, stockings, whatever –

Hmm…i actually like no.5………….

Hadajuban is the undergarment worn beneath a kimono attire. So, technically, it is a lingerie. It is name Hadajuban because it is meant to wear next to the skin. Since kimono is always about layering, it is no wonder that you have layers of clothe beneath the beautiful kimono.

Hadajuban is usually worn only with traditional full fledge kimono. And on top the hadajuban a nagajuban is added to give it a more collar definition. So, in this case, you will never see hadajuban worn with a Yukata, the casual kimono.

Here are some pictures of Hadajuban (no semi-naked chick pix! sorry :P)

Ok, this is really just eye candy for you gaijin perverts. And given that this is from one of the hundreds of variety shows on Japanese television, don’t count on the accuracy of how popular these bras really are. It’s basically an infomercial.

But it does show you what kind of lingerie Japanese women wear and why. Japanese women are on the whole very thin and fairly flat-chested. Therefore the focus is on bras that can puff up cleavage, either artificially or by visual tricks. It for much the same reason that you’ll find most clothes for young women are on the puffed, shapeless and highly frilly side. It gives the impression that the lady lumps are bigger than they really are.

If you’re a foreigner shopping in Japan, you may as well give up before you even try with lingerie. Shopping for shoes is bad enough. Instead, have a gander at this video: The Top 10 Lingerie Fashions in Japan.
