Nihongo Fiesta 2010; Events, Fashion

EDIT! A video documentation by me. Sorry for the annoying lines :|

Been occupied with school. I miss the old times when I’d just blog anything under the sun because online life > offline life. If you get what I mean.

Yesterday was Nihongo Fiesta’s Japanese Street Fashion Contest!  :heart: It was my second time attending Nihongo Fiesta. My first time was when I had long hair and I was still studying Nihongo. My cousin and I were lucky enough to be participants of the event (we registered online). The first prize was a trip to Osaka, Japan. Didn’t win but it was fun, and it was my first time in such events. Never really had an interest with cosplay cons here (and besides, I don’t have friends who are into Japanese fashion / culture to go with). I have yet to find my own crowd… :star:

I wore my favorite color combi pair of Psychedelic Ninja Japonista Sole Jika tabis. If you want to get a pair (and check out other designs), go to www.japonista-sole.com. My shoes / boots were too cool that people were photographing it. I customized the Kawaii Pink Tabi pair.

Now the photos. :yay:

Booth setup by Team Manila (?)

Saw her forrealz! Her chucks x wooden Japanese slippers were :heart:

waiting for 3:30..

I love lanterns

This is street fashion.

I asked them if I could take a picture, and they happily obliged. :D

I’ve seen them before online and I confirmed it, most of them are part of the Xing Street Fashion Project
