This Liz Liza staff in Shibuya 109 was announcing a "Time Sale for the jacket she is holding.
Time Sales are very common in Japan. All of a sudden the shop staff goes outside the store and starts shouting that it's a Time Sale. That means that it's a price discount, but only for a limited time. The Time Sale can last for some hours, or sometimes only 30 minutes. Sometimes it's a price discount on certain items for that time, and sometimes on everything in the store.
Time Sale in one of the stores in Harajuku's biggest shopping mall LaForét!
Maybe it's a way to stress people into buying unnecessary things! ;D Because they always play music louder than in a night club while all the staff is shouting "Time Sale!!! Time Sale!!!" making it impossible for you to think clearly... XD
It's time for another edition of my favorite party Double Heart!!^^ Here with Engla and the EGG-model Recchi.
My "fashion point" of the party outfit was definitley the hat from 6%DOKIDOKI in Harajuku. Necklace from CocoLulu and "Jet Set"-watch from Ur&Penn in Sweden.
I guess point number 2 is the belt hanging on the side. It's from Daisy and the first time I saw it Masshu was wearing it. It looked so cool on him so I had to buy it...
Getting that volume in the hair wasn't very easy, and it didn't last for long... :(
The hat looks like this from the side.
Since tails and fur has been trendy for some time now I have been joking with my friends about that the next big thing will be hats with tails attached to them. Just like the ones that The Junior Woodchucks on this picture is wearing you know.
And then when I open the latest Men's EGG magazine it says that the next big trend is going to be exactly those kind of hats!! XD
I love Japanese fashion for being so playful!! In Sweden everything should be so "grown up" and mature all the time when it comes to fashion and pretty much everything. But in Japan it seems like everybody wanna stay kids forever! =D
A Japanese friend of mine said that the evolution is going backwards in Japan. humans are looking more and more like animals with their tails and cat ear hats!! XD
he best hat of them all gotta be the hat Amadeus is wearing here!! :D
It reminds me of the Tanookie-suit from Super Mario Bros 3!^^
On my way to meet some other people that were also coming to the party, Engla kept messaging me about if they had big lockers. The reason why she wondered was because she had just won these "Alpackor" as she calls them on the UFO Catcher hahah... XD
Watch Engla play the "UFO Catcher" here:
Engla got a big bag for her "Alpackor" and Katharina from Finland that's been here studying before joined!
Next person to show up was Shiena from Canada with a pimped out cell phone!
So cool!! So "Kira Kira"!! Kira Kira = Bling Bling
Then two of Katharina's Korean friends came and it was time to set off to the party destination! ;)
Even though I've been to the club so many times I always end up getting lost or taking the wrong train somehow. XD
This train station worker was pointing at this train with a very serious face to show that this was the last train for tonight to Roppongi where we were going. We made it just in time...
Here's some strange small-talk from inside the train:
Sorry that some part of it is in Swedish. Here's translation of that conversation:
Engla: -"Did you see my video blog?" Me: -"Video blog?? From Where?"
Engla: -"From the Men's EGG Party." Me: -"I haven't seen it yet but I will check it out."
Then Engla says something that I can't hear no matter how many times I watch this video. :/
Then we arrived at the party!! Yaaaay!!^^ A disappointment for me was that there was much more red hats as you can see than those "Junior Woodchuck"-hats that's the big thing for the new year! Hello!!?? Wake up!! It's 2011 now!! ;)
One of the "Red Hats" were Michama which is the one that registered us as guests. Since Shun has sadly stopped being a Double Heart-staff, we're on her guest list from now on.
We were both wearing the same kind of CocoLulu-necklace. Michama is actually a shop-staff at CocoLulu! =)
Another girl wearing a red hat as well was Rina, shop staff at JSG.
More red hats... It must have been some kinda theme I missed!? First I thought the girl to the right was Kanako's best friend Romihi but it wasn't. :/
Romihi to the right.
What do you think? Does she look like Romihi?
Despite the presence of all "The Red Hats", everybody had fun!! ;)
But how can you not enjoy yourselves when you get free glowing wristbands!!^^
Leon's friend, and Shibuya 109-2 Disrev staff, Chuusuke was also there. He's usually really shy but I guess he had been drinking tonight because he talked non-stop.
Odacchi and his friend.
The best part of every gyaru-party is when the DJ play the Tokyo Rave/Another Night Remix. It's only played one time every party and before it starts it gets totally quiet and a robot voice goes: -"Tokyo Rave"
And then everybody goes crazy like this:
Michama rocking it!!
She had some strange green being hanging out from her pocket and gloves around her neck!
Recchi must spend a lot of thought behind every outfit she wears. You never she her wear the same clothes or have the same hair style two times.
Shiena, Katharina, Engla, Recchi and Me. I have never noticed it before but Recchi talks with a baby voice, at least this night...
She had American flag style tonight, that's been really trendy both in Sweden and Japan lateley. Maybe everywhere?
Ren and Hiroki dressed up in American flag style. Hiroki(right) even matches the flags stars with a small star in his right ear haha...
Talking about the American flag, here me and Shiena are together with Lexi from America that arranges club events in Tokyo. And my hair has started to live it's own life some hours into the party... :/
With Shibuya 109-2 Kingdom staff Masayama.
Happy party people!
When I sat down I saw that the girl to the right had very furry shoes! =)
Somebody borrowing my hat.
About 4 o clock in the morning 5 more EGG-models/staff showed up! Yuunyan, Chibou, Sasshi, KenKen and Makochi.
I got really suprised when I came in to the bathroom and saw Chiboo standing there 4 in the morning!
Me: -"Chibo, what are you doing here!?
Chibou: -"Hahah, it's Chibooooo, not Chibo! We have met infinite times so you should know by know!" ;)
Partying with the man, the myth, the legend Yuunyan 6 in the morning!! :D
Love his hat!! Much better than the red ones! ;D I have noticed that he's ALWAYS wearing that star-neclace by the way.
With the one and only KenKen!!^^ Makochi in the background.
The party never seemed to end...
When it was over around 7.30 in the morning Odacchis friend in the middle couldn't take anymore and looked like he was going to puke... Poor him! :(
But Engla still had a lot of energy!!
It was an awesome party anyway, and it's a new one this saturday 26th February!! ^^ Double Heart will celebrate their three year anniversary!! =)
