Street Style Report - Tokyo, Japan

brought to stylesmart by fashioninjapan.com

 

 

the look:

leg warmers - California style on the streets of Tokyo

While functional for warmth during the winter months, leg warmers are making a retro revival in Japan. This trendy accessory is hot in the junior market, but we'll see that even the upwardly mobile set is taking a page from the 80's.

These gam warmers come in variety of patterns, fabrics and styles and are an easy accessory to add to any wardrobe. Popular styles include stripes, gold, silver, plain black, and brights - for day or night.

 

"luxe legs "

Tokyo's over 20 set have been trend setters for decades. Now these "Office Ladies" or "OL's" as they're termed in Japanese vernacular are glamming up their gams with leg warmers and are paring them with mules, slides and with the very sexy calf- length pointed stiletto boots.


 

The younger set is also hot on this trend! Worn with simple sneakers like Puma, Adidas or Converse, high school students are wearing white leg-warmers as part of their uniforms. School administrators supporting this look - we love it!
