[FASHION] Tokyo Street Style / Style-Arena Picks of the Week

June 27, 2008 by KNDY

It’s our Tokyo Street Style Picks of the week from this week’s Style-Arena fashion showcase:

HARAJUKU: With Summer now in full gear, you see a lot of people sporting t-shirts and shorts but you will catch people still trying to keep it stylin’ as the temperatures rise. So, this person stood out this week as someone not sporting the t-shirt and shorts. Probably a bit hot wearing these outfit in the heat but you got to hand it to him for keeping cool with his gray/silver and black outfit.

SHIBUYA: As mentioned in our Harajuku section, hot weather really makes people not to think about what they wear so much and sometimes comfort in the heat is priority over style. But there are always people who will try to find ways to influence their fashion by simplistic means to stand out. And for Shibuya, you have to give it to this woman with her short shorts, pantyhose, yellow shoes and of course the red bows and purse to really bring color out to a dark outfit.

OMOTESANDOU: Omotesandou really had pretty cool selections but this guy’s outfit really captured my attention. Again, stylin’ in the hot weather but I really dig the overall outfit and how the jacket and his bag show color coordination with the browns and blacks in his outfit.

DAIKANYAMA: There has been somewhat of a hippie revival in terms of clothing in Japan and definitely quite a bit of floral. But this person’s outfit is just simple and sexy. The dress is sexy but paired with the socks and outlandish sandals definitely stood out for me.

GINZA: Ginza is always known for its expensive fashion during the winter but with Summer now upon us, Ginza offerings this week were casual. But of the offerings this week, this woman’s outfit stood out for me. Simple but yet a good balance of the white, brown and red.
