Japanese fashion and shopping
While in the middle of nowhere we spotted the above two walking ahead of us on the Hakone Loop. I have no idea where they did their shopping as it was before 10 in the morning and there were no stores that we saw within miles. I took the picture to document the thigh-high tights that we observed everywhere on the girls in Japan last year. I’ve yet to see them elsewhere.
The hill was steep at times, and I can’t imagine it was very comfortable in those heels. We were in Togendai.
