Anyway, I've decided to group my shots from my Tokyo trip to make the showing of them more fun. So, second installment...Tokyo's girlies shopping in Shibuya. I found out later I wasn't supposed to take pictures in the nine story department store/mini boutique showcase called 109 because the designers are very sensitive about their wares. Makes sense. I saw some really unique pieces at reasonable prices that I wouldn't find here. But since no one stopped me I just went with it and had a great time. All these girls seemed ready and excited to be photographed. I'd say, behind the fish market, this was my favorite shooting time.
I got a lot of peace signs. Not sure what that was about. Does it really mean peace to them?
After seeing this style of shoe everywhere, I ended up bringing home a pair and I love them. Can't wait to wear them over and over.
I threw this one in because I didn't know where else to put it. I won't be doing a section on these peeps. But, this was taken in Harajuku where, on Sundays, Tokyo youth dress up in their most outrageous costumes and stand outside of Yoyogi park to get attention and pose for tourists.
This was a billboard on one of the many pedestrian streets in town. You can kind of get a sense of the marketed style to these ladies. No one seems to wear flip flops. I felt like a slouch in my Rainbows. But, I was going for comfort. I think they might be struggling for that...I saw all the inserts for their feet.
I just loved these shoes....look at the multicolored ones. Damn! I should've just bought them. Urgh!
oh Amy...you're so white. :) the peace sign is an Asian thing...all the Asian kids do it. Just check my family pix on fb. :) looks like you had a great time...can't wait to hear more about it. xo -meesh
