Back to Harajuku!
February 17, 2025.
Our second (and last sniffle) day in Harajuku was centered around our reservation at Q Pot Cafe! We ordered the Valentines Day afternoon tea set and a Valentines Parfait to share. It was sooo yummy and cute. Koinuko took so many cute pictures with her Tori plushie.
On this day we didn't manage to get back to La Foret as I would have liked, but we did walk down the entirety of Takashita and a whole lot of really cool side streets. We stumbled into so many cute vintage and artisan stores. I regret not getting the names of any of them.
Some of the coolest stops for the day were the Harajuku One Piece Store (I don't even do One Piece but Harajuku Chopper was too damn cute), Kiddyland, Junie Moon and Closet Child! I also got to try a Harajuku Crepe finally and it was alright! I much preferred the choco strawberries from Strawberry Fetish.
On this day I was determined to buy some clothes. While I didn't find any dresses I was interested in I did pick up two Axes Femme blouses from Closet Child for pretty cheap and the most adorable faux cardigan sweater from a vintage store! I was pretty surprised I never found any main pieces I liked, but since that kind of emo jirai style is popular right now it makes sense.
I found the selection at Closet Child in Harajuku to be a lot more to my interest than the one in Ikebukuro. The Ikebukuro one mostly had full sets at high prices which wasn't really what I was looking for. The Kiddyland was packed. I had no idea it would be so hard to move in there.
Harajuku was everything I wanted it to be and more, I can't wait to go there again!!!
