Mostly, I wanted to talk about the girl on the left. She’s wearing (as you can see, I’m sure) a mask (normally used for preventing spreading sicknesses or allergies) with fake blood dripping down the front (and I know it’s fake since real blood would be darker).
And her hair? Those silver things encircled around her hair buns? Handcuffs. 
I think that mask at least would be great for the zombie movie Brad Pitt is filming (and if you haven’t read World War Z by Max Brooks, do it now!!)
Okay, normally I don’t take photos of random people, but I asked her and she said it was okay……
So…..this is a current fashion in Japan. Note the bleached hair; I swear that all of my graduating students hit up the hair dresser the moment that they don’t have to show up at high school again. Bleaching is pretty popular for college students, and I’m going to guess she’s one as well.
As for the clothes…all I can think about is that five years ago, that would have been my perfect outfit. And I still love the jeans…..
(P.S. thank you random girl in Takasaki, you looked fun!)
