three days in a city like TOKYO and this New Zealand Girl is feeling mighty boring in her standard black- matching and un-themed outfits, i have never before suffered from plain jane syndrome so severely. Tokyo is like the vending machines it loves so much, bright, sparkling with lights, and with many many options, in short its madness! here's just a snippet of a variety of different shops from the cities busiest centres shiboya and harujuku. on the minimalist side is cult Japanese convenience style shop MUJI (which FYI is also widely available inHong Kong).
on the bright and wacky side of things is this shop in Harujuku whose name I cannot tell you asI speak not a word of Japanese, heres the catch though, what looks like a costume shop is not- its actually clothes people wear on the streets of harajuku. In shaboya -the hippest shopping area- it has THAT infamous intersection (as seen in lost in translation) which sees the most people in the world crossing it every hour - high fashion stores like COACH sit alongside CONDOMMANIA- no joke its a boutique condom store !- only in japan!
