Japanese Fashion vs. Canadian Fashion

As I walked through the crowded stores yesterday I noticed that "Lolitas" = the girls in Japan who never leave their house without their make-up, high heeled shoes, perfect hair and designer bag--also exist in Canada.

I went into the Guess store and was overcome first of all by the overpowering smell of perfume... yikes! Then I see all these tweens, and teenagers stressed like "Paris Hilton" wannabees, some with boobs almost popping out of their shirts with bleach blonde hair. OMG please if I wanted to see hooters I will just go to the strip club.

But not all women were dressed as Lolitas.. there were the Hillbillies too, the ones that don't care about their appearance and let their hair grow to their ass.

Am I being harsh? No just making observations.

I have come to the conclusion that Boxing Day shopping will never be my slice of cake, and I don't really care to spend hundreds of dollars on clothing that has a certain label.

Meh... I just want to be comfortable and look smart.

Whereas women in Japan walk around in high heeled boots and mini skirts during the winter, girls here seem to stick to low rise jeans, boots and low cut tops. The picture above is courtesy of my Swedish friend and she is sitting with typical "Lolita girls" in Japan.

Needless to say most of these girls all have Luis Vuittons, which surprisingly are becoming a more common sight here. I guess if I want one I'll have to get a sugar daddy. LOL! Just kidding, I make my own money and besides I'm not a label whore.
