.:Kami's Japanese Fashion Guide:.

Welcome to 'Kami's Japanese Fashion Guide'. Please take off your shoes on your way in. *crosses legs* As we all know, Japan has the crazest Fashion. Which is so Kawaii [super cute]! Okie dokie, lets start:

First we have the Harajuku [my favorite]!
The term "Harajuku Girls" has been used by English-language media to describe teenagers dressed in any fashion style who are in the area of Harajuku. These girls may be members of various sub-cultures including Gothic Lolita, Ganguro, Gyaru, and Kogal. They may also be dressed as characters from an anime, movie, or manga (known as cosplay).

------------------------------------------------

Next, Kogyaru.
Kogal (a.k.a. Kogyaru) is a subculture of girls and young women in urban Japan. In general, the kogal "look" roughly approximates a sun-tanned California Valley Girl. :3

------------------------------------------------

Third is the famous Ganguro!
Ganguro is an alternative fashion trend among young Japanese women and are really simular to Kogyaru. In ganguro fashion, a deep tan is combined with hair dyed in shades of orange to blonde, or a silver gray known as "high bleached". Black ink is used as eyeliner and white concealer is used as lipstick and eyeshadow. False eyelashes, plastic facial gems, and pearl powder are often added to this. Platform shoes and brightly-colored outfits complete the ganguro look. Also typical of ganguro fashion are tie-dyed sarongs, miniskirts, and lots of bracelets, rings, and necklaces.

------------------------------------------------

Almost done Lolita [Kachi's favorite]...

Gothic Lolita or "GothLoli" (sometimes "Loli-Goth") has two definitions. The term "Gothic and Lolita" is used by the Japanese to describe a sub-culture of teenagers who wear a wide range of fashions. It is used by English language sources mainly to describe a specific subset of Lolita fashion. The Lolita fashion may look like living Victorian porcelain dolls.

------------------------------------------------

Last but not lease, Decorer!

Decorer is seriously like Harajuku but with less accessories. Little less colors too. This fashion originaly goes with glasses and hats. But, it could be Decorer withought. :D

------------------------------------------------

Thats it for now. Thanks for reading. I hope you like the pictures (took me a while to put them up, my computer wouldn't let me!). Don't forget, there's more Japan fashion, but I just added a few. Be sure to vist Kami's Magical Land of Anime again. Bye.
