WuT Berlin opening
I forgot to mention the Wut Berlin clothing store opening!
As you can see above, there were some mediocre fashions worn by the people there (except for the ones that were clearly fashion industry. For example, I saw this guy who's featured on Rei Shito's fashion blog (she's a famous street fashion photographer).
The clothes was okay, but definitely not worth the money. I can do the "bag" or "'80s" look for much cheaper by going vintage and modifying, so word to you designers: make things that I can't make!
For example, though these earrings were incredible, I would never spend hundreds on them:
But I love them! They're made of wig hair! Talk about a high impact accessory!
For Alida it was really something to see public restroom signs from her hometown used to decorate the fitting rooms. (well not her hometown, but the city she loves like a hometown - Berlin!)
Alida and I stood like unfashionable mongrels by the hors d'oeurves (we just came from work, looking all sweaty and disheveled!), grabbed our free goodie bags, milled about, and were on our way! I definitely see how the fashion world can be too "karui" for me (featherweight --shallow).
I saw this window display in Harajuku/Omotesando on our way home:
Louis Vuitton? I don't know, but it was so cool! Too bad the fashion is sort of boring. A black puffy jacket and black pants?
