Seashell Necklace & Vintage Fashion From The Virgin Mary in Harajuku

Posted on August 31, 2012 

Here is someone who we’ve seen around Harajuku quite a bit this year – it’s Yukinnko! Yukinnko is an 18-year-old student with – as you may have seen already in these previous snaps – her own unique vintage-inspired sense of style.

Yukinnko is wearing a lace-trimmed negligee top from The Virgin Mary over a pretty dress (with lace, layers, and studs) from New York Joe Exchange, pink stockings, and flats decorated with flower petals and lace. Accessories include a lace collar, a purple seashell necklace from The Virgin Mary (an item we’ve seen recur in several of Yukinnko’s looks), a tooth pin, and a beautiful vintage handbag from The Virgin Mary.

Yukinnko told us that her favorite shop is the popular Shibuya resale boutique The Virgin Mary. Her favorite musical group is Tokyo Incidents. For more info on Yukinnko, check out her personal Twitter.

 “Fame” Perfume Launch 

in Harajuku

Posted on August 1, 2012

Lady Gaga’s “Fame” perfume made its worldwide 

debut today at a special popup shop inside of Tokyu 

Plaza Omotesando Harajuku. Gaga has strong ties to – 

and big love for – Harajuku, so it’s no surprise she 

would select the neighborhood as the launch pad for 

her new perfume. Japanese Lady Gaga fans are 

extremely dedicated and they came out in force
to show their support today. 

While checking out the “Fame” perfume scene 

today in Harajuku, we ran into this fun girl 

and her friend – both carrying bags from the 

limited edition Lady Gaga popup shop. In addition 

to her pretty blonde-pink hair, she’s wearing a 

sleeveless graphic hoodie (with cute ears) from the 

Japanese brand JSG along with matching short shorts, 

thigh-high fishnets (with handcuff bows on the back), 

and cute platform heels with bows. Accessories include 

cherry earrings, a melting heart ring, a small 

Monchhichi bag, an eyeball bow, and a Morn shark backpack.
