These pieces from Junya Wantanabe’s latest collection are so awesome! I love 3D fashion and I’m a big fan of Q*bert. I used to play the crap out that game when I was kid. Any who, the first four looks remind me of Q*bert. I have to say the last …

These were the winners of Japan’s Fashion school, Bunka College. I love seeing student work because they design for fun,  not just to sell garments. Also, it’s gives me an easy target. Any who, these were all messed up in their own way and I embrace that. The detail and …

I’m all about putting a cat on your head, but there’s something not right about this particular kitty. Japanese designer Campanella had the right idea, but lost it somewhere between the crazed-cat eyes and the stiff thin body. Seriously, they should’ve fattened up the cat a bit…. maybe have in a …

Japanese designer Pameo Pose some sweet outfits perfect for a picnic or garden party. Naturally, my fave piece is the chunky heels with -count them- FIVE bows! Someone got it right! I’m also loving the turquoise and red color combo…. really styling’…. Any who, check out Pameo’s e-shop- you can get these …

Designer Jenny Fax has always been very avant garde, so this season wasn’t shocking. The only thing I found kinda weird was the ‘homage’ to child funerals. Yeah, okay. Those blue plastic pants in the 10th photo are everything, though. I could rock those day and night and never have …

Japanese fake food maker, Hatanaka, has released a special line of jewelry and hair accessories that look like regurgitated food. Seriously, they look like something my 7 month old might vom. I have to say, I love love love pasta, but never thought of wearing it on my head as an …

Japanese designer Hisui unveiled their Fall 2014 collection inspired by folkloric ensembles and that neighborhood hobo wrapped in all sorts of blankets, jackets and pants in the middle of April. I actually like this collection because it looks all sorts of cozy mozy. And I really like the built-in tables at the …

  Check out these awesome socks  by Japanese designer Erimaki Sox ! They’re like little shirts for your feet! How cool! They come in a variety of patterns, including strips (so nautical) and gingham (It’s a picnic… ON YOUR FEET! ) I wanted to order a pair or two, but the website is …

Bortsprungt -Fall 2014 collection was full of horror references only a sick kitten like me would love. I have to say, those Japanese really know how to mix cute with fright. Having said that, I’ll take one of each, thankyouverymuch. photos: Tokyo Fashion Diaries

Check out the awesomeness coming out of Just Like Honeyee!! It’s the burger bangle!! I’m not a huge fan of hamburgers, but I would most definitely wear this work of art around my wrist. It costs about US$140 and ships from Japan. Yes, Please!!! photos: James St. James
