Tifa in Harajuku Girls Fashion
Posted on October 28, 2008 under Fatherly Yours, Hopia Encounters · 9 Comments
Harajuku is an area in Tokyo between Shinjuku and Shibuya where the infamous Harajuku Girls fashion became a hit among Japanese youth in the area. According to Wikipedia, 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 since 2004. These girls may be affiliated to some youth groups such as Gothic Lolita, Ganguro, Gyaru, and Kogal, or may often cosplay as characters from an anime, movie, or manga which explains the character designs of the Harajuku Fashion.
Currently in the Philippines, despite it’s being a tropic, Harajuku fashion is becoming a hit among the youngsters and young adults. I don’t know how they cope with this kind of fashion in a tropical country but who cares anyway. Fashion is fashion and is never a crime.
When we came across a flea market selling Harajuku Girls clothes for kids, we can’t help but look for something that will fit Tifa and haggle until the price is right. At least it’s cold in this part of the hemisphere so Tifa could deal with the Harajuku.
Here’s Tifa in her Harajuku attire. I hope we could find a more Goth Lolita or at least when she grow taller.
Halloween party, anyone?

So as I’ve written on a previous post, my wife came here from the Philippines. And with her every visit here in China, she would bring for me some Filipino goodies – some I have purposely requested, others are random surprise. Here’s a few of what she have for me this time:
3 back issues of i-mag Photography Magazine from my sister-in-law, pilot issue of NOSEBLEED Magazine featuring Kwentong Barbero (as blogger of the month or something to that effect), and Jessica Zafra’s Twisted 5 (which I read if I have spare times at night) and 8 (that I read in the office at daytime). About the NOSEBLEED Magazine, I only read Badoodle’s part because I didn’t liked the mag’s layout, it’s worse than our high school paper.
Then this ANTIPATIKO t-shirt from negativiTEE, ang g-shirt ng mga gwapo
