Harajuku fashion offers people a unique way to express themselves. I particularly like how they can interpret different bright colours into their outfits in a creative and colourful way. Considering how the weather here is always dull, I don’t think these styles will be popular in Canada. Gyaru styles, especially lolita kei, are appealing to me. I like the cutesy aspect of it and the contrast of the light colours in lolita fashion. Recently, a hand gesture in the gyaru community has caught an internet wide popularity, letting others do an upside-down peace sign whenever taking photos. I really like that in Lolita fashion, you can also incorporate other colours into the mix, not just pastels. Fashion is really important to me. I don’t like to repeat outfits, and that allows me to mix different pieces together. One app that really influences my fashion is Pinterest. I wouldn’t say I have a main fashion style, so Pinterest helps me try to achieve a certain look I’m going for that day. Clothing and fashion is one way I like to compliment other people, and it also shows how we can connect with one another, through our spendings
