Terrific Tokyo!

I'm just back from a conference in Kyoto, which was excellent. Japan is a beautiful country, we were lucky enough to visit both Kyoto & Tokyo, with Kyoto being brilliant for culture & sight seeing, and Tokyo amazing for shopping & just buzzing with activity. Every single woman in Japan was so stylish, whether we saw them on the subway, in Starbucks or just walking down the street, they had the most beautiful, trendy outfits, and gave me a lot of inspiration!

On our first day in Tokyo, we ventured down to Harajuku in the Shinjuku district (the entrance to one of the streets is shown above - so cool!). It was a shopaholics dream! So many shops with gorgeous things, my favourite was a tiny place called Culture Medium which stocked mostly dresses & tops that can be worn both for work & nights out. Some items were really cheap, others worked out at a little less than what you'd pay for them on the Irish High Street, but they were worth it; brilliant quality & super flattering shapes. Now if only I could find a stockist for them in Dublin!

Where's the most exotic place that you've bought clothes?
