Tokyo vintage shops

If you are a fashion vintage lover Tokyo is going to be your paradise. This is what a Japanese friend used to say to me before I arrived in Japan. Now I understand what he meant!

Tokyo offers so many things and for all the testes, but about vintage fashion is just insane. I usually go to Omotesando or Harajuku. But recently I have discovered Shimokitazawa too. It's a great area to get lost and explore. I don't buy all the time I go there, but honestly, it's very fun visiting all the tiny shops and check out their new arrivals.

Well, if you are a vintage fashion lover, you are in the right place!

A sensational Festival at Kawagoe

Last weekend I went to Kawagoe to see the famous "Kawagoe Hikawa Festival Float Event". It was visually amazing, the contrast between the portable shrine light and the dark of the night made a very suggestive atmosphere. Spectators were overwhelmed. This incredible festival has a glorious history, over 370 years. It wasn't my first time at a Japanese festival, however, I can easily say the Kawagoe festival is the best I have ever been to so far.

Just amazing!
