Shopping in Tokyo

Shopping in Tokyo is always fun and on my recent trip back I sure had a whole lotta fun! How kawaii are the shopping bags above? The bags alone are reason enough to want to shop in Tokyo. I thought I would share with you some of my favourite buys from vintage stores and boutiques that I love and always try to visit when I'm back in Tokyo, the land of super fun shopping!


As you can see I went prints crazy and this isn't all of it!!! Tokyo is great for finding cheap amazing vintage but its also great for finding hard to come by designer pieces too. Prices are pretty random to be honest, some places the vintage pieces are all $4, and other places your looking at $150 for similar stuff. It helps to know where to go and what to look for.

From left to right: Vintage scarf print blouse from Kinji in Harajuku for about $7. Malko Malka hot air balloon digital print top from their boutique in the LaForet department store in Harajuku for about $150. Vintage green polka dot shirt from Hikari in Koenji for about $40. Vintage tropical print bomber jacket from  Kinji in Harajuku for about $9. Joy Rich cash money sheer shirt from Candy in Shibuya for about $130.


Accessories are so fun and cheap in Tokyo. Everywhere you look, especially in Harajuku, there are cute amazing things for not a lot of $$$. It pays to be careful of fakes but sometimes its hard to tell. I went eyeball crazy this trip.
