Cute Travels: Tokyo, Japan Pt. 2

Hello lovelies! Sorry I was away for so long. This summer has been really busy!
 I'm back with  part 2 of 3 of my Cute Travels in Tokyo, Japan. Get ready for a photo heavy post behind the cut.

Cute Travels: Tokyo, Japan Pt. 1

During the Chinese New Year holiday I traveled to Japan and spent some time in Tokyo. Get ready for some too cute to handle photographs behind the page jump!

Honeys Japanese Clothing company

Early this winter, in  desperate need of warm clothes, I headed over to OPA mall to check out a shop that is quickly becoming my go to store for casual cute fashion, Honeys.

Liz Lisa Official Tmall Shop

You might have figured out by now that I am in love with the Japanese brand, Liz Lisa and was so excited when I came to Shanghai and found a shop at Jiu Guang mall. Recently though, the shop closed down and left me feeling more than a little sad. But I have good news!

Liz Lisa has an officially licensed Tmall shop that ships all over China! 

Liz Lisa Shanghai has closed!

 

I'm sorry to bring such terrible news, but Liz Lisa, previously at Jiu Guang department store has closed! 

I do not have an official notice of the store closure, but for now, it is safe to assume Liz Lisa Shanghai has closed.

Gyaru Shops at Jiu Guang Department Store (Photo Heavy)

Located in the Jing'an district of Shanghai, Jiu Guang Department Store is home to hundreds of trendy domestic and international fashion brands. If you are looking for a one stop shop that is sure to fill your every indulgence, Jiu Guang is the place to go.

Liz Lisa Shanghai

Liz Lisa is Japanese fashion brand known for their ultra feminine and cute clothing. With frequent floral prints and use of chiffon fabrics it is a staple in most roma and himekaji gyaru wardrobes (not totally accurate, but here's a description of "gyaru"). The brand's concept has a strong focus on "Retro & Girlish", so needless to say, I love Liz Lisa! I was  excited to discover they have a store in Shanghai and quickly made my way over to check it out. 

OPA Shanghai & Daiso 10 RMB shop

OPA Shanghai , opened in 2010, is a Japanese shopping mall which boasts the title of the "first large scale shopping mall in China dedicating almost its entire floor space to Japanese brands" (Tokyofashion.com). If you know anything about Japan, you must know that it's entire pop culture is built around the concept of kawaii, cute. 

Knowing that, I set out to find this mall and see what the buzz is all about.
