I too own a kitty hoodie and a panda hat; but they are for Halloween. So yeah, reserve those for special occasions only please.

My sister fell victim to this cute-mania couple years ago; I had to b**tchslap some senses into her. Thankfully she took my advice and bought clothes that can be re-worn by another legit adult. She still uses Disney & Sanrio characters stationery though.

i do agree that theirs is the most generic and safe of all the Asian street style posted before but there are some interesting looks

posts 64 and 65 are amazing but sadly most of the people are not really Hong Kongers.

im wondering.... if these are shot by lane crawford...then they were doing catalog/commerical shot but not the real streetstyle. anyone agrees?

[flyme2themoon]

^ Looking at the photos again, you're probably correct.

Among these photos were some shot in Tokyo, which seem a bit more "authentic" than these...

[tung]

yes those tokyo shots seem more "nature" and "not posing"...if you know what I mean

but it is a good start!

i heart hk

some great pics in the most recent posts -but i somehow don't think its authentic streetstyle?

[NakedIfIWantTo]

^ yeah I don't think so either. These are way too monochrome (read:cool) for Hong Kong style.

The second one (woman in white dress) looks like Sarah Rutson (the buyer at Lane Crawford) so yes, I do think some of the shots were set up...
