Harajuku: Japanese Pop Culture Fashion

even the pets are not spared.

it’s a video shot for a university project so if you expect bumper car music to go with it, you’ll be disappointed. So expect some ’splaining of J-Pop fashion by students trying to explain what J-Pop culture is. I guess.

Junkie T-Shirts

I love these tees, they’re so casual and comfortable. The reason why I loved junkfood tees are because ….well, it’s something you can wear and dress up if you want. Most importantly, these tees are a staple in Japanese street fashion. You gotta have the basics if you want to mix and match.

Feist Fashion

Check this video out. I know the song is catchy, it’s one of the reason why i post this up on a Monday ;) But the main reason why is because I want to point out that tube suit she’s wearing in blue sequins.

And in heels.

I’ve been trying to find what she’s wearing online but I can’t. I’ll be grateful if anyone can point me to a place that sells these body suits. Okay, the reason why I want this is because I actually a Japanese girl wearing this kind of overalls before and she looked so cute. Maybe she was trying to set a trend but it just didn’t catch up.

Anyway the artist in the video, Fiest, she’s quite a bold woman isn’t she prancing around in that almost ridiculous suit it looks almost sexy :P

Vegan Shoes

Check out this totally vegan shoes. I know vegan means someone who does not eat/use any sort of animal product, that includes milk, cheese, eggs, leather, cosmetics using bug juice or animal gelatin etc.

So what’s a vegan shoe, exactly? A vegan shoe is simply a shoe that is completely animal free. It is not rolled out from pig skin factory belt, it is not made from leather, you get the picture.

This is a Stella McCartney’s Vegan Shoes:

They are recyclable too!

Nail Fashion

I use to think that keeping long nails are such a hassle because they keep chipping all the time. But then when I saw my friend’s extremely cool nail art, I figured you don’t need to grow 1 inch nails to have pretty nails. You just need to get some of these:

Glue them in and you’re good to go. Go to this site for more nail advice - apparently acrylic nails needs some attention so that they last longer.

Fashion in Japan- BBC News

I thought this might interest you fashion people.

Part I:

Part II:

A very apt video about Fashion in Japan. More people need to be aware of the unique fashion culture in Japan instead of bashing it like some previously did.

Gloves! Gloves! Gloves!

Gloves are “in” for winter. Not only do they keep the fingerlings warm, they are the latest fashion statement in Japan right now. Wear them bold, wear them long, wear them short, wear them furry, wear them silky …whatever you do, just wear them this winter because it is the trend.

Now, this trend makes a lot of sense to me because gloves are a necessity during the cold winter months. Here are some pretty hot looking hand sock that will knock your socks off!

I am crazy about the black leather gloves. Maybe it’s the extensively long lashes that’s smarted my senses…..

Winter is dull no more!

For me, when I walk the streets of Americas, winter time has to be the dullest time of the year. Out of 10, 9 coats are black or gray or beige. The lack of colors is murderous to the creative juices and sense of livelihood, if you ask me. But then again, black, gray and beige goes with everything and when the weather drops to sub zero, nothing is simpler than putting on your heaviest warmest coat to keep warm. And that’s usually the darker, duller colors.

This winter black and white phenomenon is not just secluded to the streets of caucasia, it’s a common sight in Japan, Korea, Taiwan and China during harsher cold months. But blimey, that’s all about to change changing! :)

Winter fashion is no longer dull with the splashes of colorful winter garbs. Reds and pink are extremely popular right now in Japan’s winter fashion! Color tuks, caps, jackets, scarfs, coats are making a scene and hallelujah! LIVE IS LIFE~!
l_fasb071225.jpg

Fashion enthusiasts are painting the town red, pink, and every other bright color under the sun as they set the trend this winter with colorful one-pieces leading the way. Bright colors are everywhere - from colored tights and other accessories such as shawls, hats, and boots to outerwear, including wool coats and down jackets.

In the 2008 spring/summer collection shows in Milan and Paris, many of the top fashion brands, including Prada and Balenciaga, paraded vibrant colors and vivid print patterns. The fashion standard over the past several years has been defined by chic color combinations centered on black, resulting in the shutout of bright colorful pieces, but for this winter and into the coming spring, the trend among young women is in the direction of bright, cheery colors.

Japanese Trends.

Check out Balenciaga’s latest 08/09 fashion presentation in Milan:

While the usual black and beige is still there, notable streaks and splashes of colors are boldly presented.
