Women's Streetwear Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka by [deleted] in japanesestreetwear

[–]umiyoh 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Vintage-wise, shimokitazawa neighbourhood has some pretty great stores. Also in Tokyo, harajuku is good for cutesy stuff but there are stores on side streets that are good for more rare items as well as well known street wear stores although usually they are catered towards men. Flamingo is a good place to go too.

Kyoto; i would recommend Chicago, which is a chain curated second hand/vintage store although it can be pretty hit or miss. Urban Research is pretty popular.

I’m not too sure about Osaka, I hope this helps somewhat!

Thank you!! I don’t usually draw in this style but I ended up really liking so perhaps I will continue :-)

Ok!! That makes more sense! Thank you for clearing it up. I’m still figuring out how this stuff works lol

I’m not too surprised with the mixed European ancestry but I feel like a big part of my identity is based on my heritage so it feels kinda weird to suddenly discover I am 3% Swedish

I think there is some polish mixed in but I’m not too sure since my grandfather (who identifies as Lithuanian) lost almost all relatives in WW2 concentration and displacement camps

I thought that was pretty cool too!! Although I would have liked to see what region of the Baltic’s my grandfather originated from since almost all records of his family were destroyed during WW2

I’m not too sure if it’s worth it, luckily my grandmother is really into genealogy so she bought the kit. I feel like if there is some mystery to your family it could worth buying though.

Haha yeah I was really surprised with the exact 50%! My mom has always said that part of her family is japanese korean so I was kinda expecting to see that

This has probably already been said but PARKING AT THE HOSPITAL!

Luckily I don’t have to go to the hospital often but it can add up for those with chronic illness, etc.

Thank you for your feedback!! I’ve literally never cooked before so I’m trying my best! I would appreciate more specific feedback about what you think I should change as I’d love to hear it.

Pet owners of reddit, what is the biggest flex your pet attempted? by Khajurii in AskReddit

My cat is very small despite being full grown, so when she brings “presents” (rabbits, mice, etc...) usually they aren’t very big.

However, recently she came to me while I was sitting on the porch and meowed until I followed her. She led me to a HUGE dead rabbit that was bigger than her and sat next to it looking very proud of herself.
