Candy Stripper

Candy Stripper is a female-centered Japanese brand that features apparels and accessories in somewhat punk-rock styles. Going through the online shop, you'll find lots of baggy tops/ dresses; vests and sweaters also in abundance. Stuff that on first look are dull and unfashionable.. But I believe if coordinated well, especially with their fun accessories and jewellery, the look can be real fab. And unique, no doubt.

Besides the alternative chic style, there is also some stuff available for those who love their stuff cute! Think overalls and miniskirts. There's also a selection of cute tights/ leggings to go with them. Also cute are definitely their bags and purses (:

Before we continue, I gotta alert you that the site can be navigated in English, but there's still words written in Japanese. Especially in product descriptions. However, it is simple enough to navigate through the shop..
Some of my picks! (comments in magenta!) Once again I do not claim ownership over these photos!! They belong to Candy Stripper!

I like the exposed zipper, and the water-colour effect this print has.
I love!! Plaid is also one of my favourite prints :P
How cute is that? Remind me of the McDonald's character.. forgot the name. hmm.
I don't think there's anything not to like about this top. Baggy tank. Heather grey, one of my favourite colours. And it shows attitude!
They called it "funny dwarfs" but it's really a few blind smurfs running around. real cute.
I love the concept of a bear hiding in your tee and peeping out. The sneaky little eye!
This bag is in such a cute shape and polka dots just work so well here. They add quirkiness yet cuteness to anything! This bag also comes in "foil pink and silver"
I think it's self-explanatory :P
My Favourite item, no doubt about it at all!! Cool shoes with a cute twist! These come in violet and also white/pink.

I linked every item to their specific page, so you can browse easily. There are more stuff in the shop, I assure you. Think jackets, some jewellery.. more skirts and tops!  And their webbie also has got their scrap book (designs by seasons), more on their designers and press. Even a staff blog! so u could go check that out. Although it MIGHT be in Japanese... hmm. Oh well, u don't let language barrier get in the way of appreciating their goodies yea? :D Visit at http://www.candystripper.net/ !
