How freaking AMAZING is my new Tropicana rainbow pink, peach and yellow hair by Blondies of Melbourne? I can't believe how much like a Calippo icypole my hair looks. Most definitely the coolest hair I have ever had! Oh and I have recently been using a pink eyeliner I bought in Tokyo to fill in my brows, what do you think?

Oh gosh, these shoes are the most beautiful shoes I think I have ever owned. They're so comfortable too thanks to Camper's amazing quality shoe making and an ultra modern innovative design. I am obsessed!

WIN a $100 Gorman Voucher thanks to Poki Games
I have always loved playing fashion games, from playing with paper dolls as a kid to a Barbie CD-rom game when I was a bit older, they've always been lots of fun to me. Obsessing over matching details, finding the right shoes for the occasion and getting my characters hair and makeup just so is a fun way to spend an afternoon if you ask me. I was surprised to find there there is a wide variety of free online fashion games at Poki, but of course my favourite has to be Shopaholic Tokyo. I mean how could I not love it when the opening paragraph basically describes me, why yes I am good at shopping and I do love to party, how did you know? ✿♥‿♥✿
The game doesn't look like any Tokyo streets I've ever seen but the shops and styles available inside do look pretty much exactly like Tokyo. You'll find modern Harajuku style kimono's, Gothic Lolita looks, high school uniforms and punk rock styles all feature. The challenge of the game is to dress your character in the correct style for an event.
My first challenge was Lolita style, so off to Sweet Rose I went in search of the perfect Goth Loli ensemble to win the round.
Of course I went with pink. I collected all my finishing details at the shops along the street and got ready for my close up.
When you've completed your look a street style photographer comes and takes your photo - just like in Tokyo!!! I won my round so I took home a $500 prize and accepted my next challenge - a high school girl style challenge. Follow my snapchat to see what I created @fashionhayley.

The prize
To enter Simply comment on this post with your favourite Harajuku style subculture. Mine would have to be Spank-kei because my good friend Tavuchi invented it and it's amazing to see how popular it has become outside of Japan in recent years. Imagine inventing your own cult style and having people all over the world idolise and copy you, it's pretty cool!

Rockerbilly is by far my favourite subculture. They don't mess about. All those perfectly coiffed pompadours! �� X @vanduchess
ReplyDeleteI love the rockerbilly guys in Yoyogi park. Love your style in this post, so good! @fuzzyfrankie
ReplyDeleteI quite like the Kodona or boy style of the Lolita subculture. The Victorian femme/masc dressing is really an interesting match.
ReplyDeleteThanks Hayley

Oh, I love this post so much!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Harajuku style is probably Decora, even though it's mostly morphed into other styles at this point. It influenced my style a lot in high school and still influences my color choices and love for abundant accessories!
I really hope I win this because I've been drooling over lovely Gorman items for ages but still don't have any in my closet yet.

Kogal Is so cute!!! I love the school girl look and their knee high socks. I fell in love with the Japanese school girl look when I went to Japan and now I can't get over my love of knee high socks!!

I'm all about bright colours when it comes to fashion, so I'm obsessed with the Decora look. If I could rock the accessoried-rainbow look every day, I would.

Yamamba I find very strange yet fascinating but Mori Kei is my favourite๐ Joce_gib@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteWori Kei. I do love the brighter and wilder Harajuku styles, but I love the pretty, muted tones and ethereal vintage meets old-world style of Wori Kei; the colour palate and use of voluminous cotton skirts sets it apart from the other sub cultures.
ReplyDeleteThanks for running this competition!
alida@deakin.edu.au
Fairy-kei! Which upon further research is just another name for spank-kei. So bloody cute though! tdeges@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteMori Kei is my favourite. I do love the brighter colours and wilder outfits of many other sub cultures, but the muted colour palate, voluminous cotton skirts and the pretty, ethereal vintage-meets-old-world styling sets it slightly apart.
ReplyDeleteThanks for running the competition!

ReplyDeleteFairy-kei for sure :) Love love love your shoes xx
ReplyDelete@hipbonesandheartbreak
The way you've paired retro with modern streetstyle in this look is awesome, I adore it. Gotta find me a skirt like that. My favourite Harajuku subculture is also Spank-kei, more so the Fairy-kei side of it. Ever since I was younger and stumbled across videos about it on youtube I've adored the colour schemes and kitschy accessories far more than I'd like to admit. Need to spend less money on all that, honestly!

DeleteMori kei! A.mccabe@uq.edu.au
ReplyDeleteOh! I definitely love Decora-Kei the most - mainly because it reminds me of the children's book "Fancy Nancy". Which my daughter loves!!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally loving the Pom Pom earrings too!

I love the Neo Ikemen or 'genderless' kei subculture - subversive and inspiring! :)
ReplyDeleteannakoleary@gmail.com
Mori Kei is my favourite because I love the earthy tones and peaceful vibes the outfits can give off :)
ReplyDeleteclaireandt2@gmail.com
I love mori kei (looks like I'm not alone). It looks so cosy & comfortable, and I love that muted tones are still so full of personality. @jamontski
ReplyDeletegoth lolita! mostly because i wear black, so goth lolita would definitely be my style if i lived in japan (which is my legit dream).
ReplyDeleteemail: astronaut.nat@hotmail.com
Ganguro girls have always been my absolute fave!
ReplyDelete@plusthighs
I really like Mori Kei- it's a bit different from the typical Harajuku style so it stands out by being more muted and is whimsical PLUS loves a quirky purse... I love a quirky purse!
ReplyDeleteemilyhoff@hotmail.com.au
I am a big fan of Gothic Lolita - I admire the people who rock it, it's elegant yet daring and mysterious!! P.s. absolutely love your style, you go girl!

I love punk the most. Was so bummed I didn't see any when I was in Harajuku last year! xx
ReplyDeletefiona.sorrell@gmail.com
Mori Kei is my favourite because it's so cute and whimsical (and highly wearable!). Love your outfit here, especially the pom-pom earrings!
ReplyDeletejoanna.k.horton@gmail.com
I love mori kei! It's so adorable, and I love that the girls who wear it love red hair like mine! It reminds me of some sort of celtic woodland fairy. lucinda.kent@gmail.com @lucindakent
ReplyDeleteMori kei the forest nymph inside. Always @eliza__day (2 underscores) :)
ReplyDeleteMori! I feel like it fits my personality and it's chill..also anything around autumn or winter is the best :) gloomy.bears on Insta/lisa.leonard22@gmail.com :)
ReplyDeleteThe Shironuri style is by far my favourite! Minori, a Japanese artist widely known for her dedication to this style, is my fashion and artist inspiration because she is able to emulate the beauty and harshness of nature and translate it to fashion.
ReplyDelete(sorry..) My instagram is @karinahelen_4 :)
ReplyDeleteGothic Lolita is my favourite. I can spend ages pouring over my "Fruits" Books admiring the fashion :) Insta and : kikizeebax
ReplyDeleteMori Kei is definitely my favourite look, if I had to pick one. Who doesn't love a forest dweller?! X
ReplyDeleteShellsdarren@hotmail.com
Gosh. How do you pick one favourite? I love Fairy Kei and Decora. So much colour!
ReplyDeleteThat Gorman voucher would be sooo handy :)

Kogal is my favourite as I've always loved the knee high socks and my best friend went over to japan and went on a mission to take as many gorgeous photos of japanses girls ! X

Ha, that looks like no Tokyo street ever. There's a legit footpath, and where are the thousand and one chicks checking their phones and walking slowly?
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is almost the exact fabric my cousin had a dress in in the 70s. :)
Fairy kei....cos I ♥ the 80's too! @missjesswoohoo
ReplyDeleteSweet Lolita is definitely my favourite!
