I love how the whole video is dedicated to your best friend. You have a beautiful friendship.
Tru story. I was feeling bad for her having to follow around filming pink she shopping, not cool. And Japan not having plus sz...wow, that sends a loud msg to anyone who doesn't "fit" their idea of beauty. My daughter is big and beautiful and absolutely ravishing!
I was thinking the same thing!! I was like what an amazing friend, so supportive and excited for her friend.
"bigger people have bigger wallets"
I'm a giant with a transparent bank account
6 ft female, size 13 pants, 42DDD In big all around and this comment is my life lmfao
Lmao
The materials for clothes are high on of top the markup in Japan. That’s why I lost weight b4 I went and close to not being able to sit on the merry go round at DisneySea with the seat belt on the last hook.
@@Ash2theB thank God I don't like Japan then
How tall ?
I'm 6ft 3
I’ve been recommended a lot of Japanese fashion vlogs/hauls and everyone was petite and little. This video was so refreshing as a plus size girl 😭💗
Same girl!
I'm plus size so I thought I couldn't buy anything from Japan but I still can't as its expensive 😭
"we are in japan right now as you are watching this"
*me now in september 2020*
So glad it isn't just me 🙈 I was supposed to go to Japan last month but it was cancelled 😭
*cries in quarantine *
End of May 2021😭
I might just be poor but I would never spend over $20 for a shirt 😂
Would never spend more then $15 on a shirt lol shears Clearance and sale shopping. I refuse to buy my favorite jeans (American Eagle) without there being a giant sale
Unless it’s merch or I’m supporting a cause, I completely agree lmao. Sadly, I also like my shirts oversized.
I usually try to find shirts which are at most 10 euros, so a bit over ten dollars I think. I can't afford much more, since I'm a broke university student😞
$20 is high for me for a shirt. I like $9 for a shirt
Same girl , in my town you can get 5€ shirts and 8€ jeans
"everything was so dull and bland.....navy blue, maroon, gray, black.."
me: that's basically my whole wardrobe 😭
She bought a lot of black and dark blue clothes (and white) and they looked great imo. Just because the clothes look "dull", doesn't mean the one wearing them is. ❤️
Julie T me too. I got excited the other day and bought a pink shirt! 🤦♀️
Yeah I really liked what they showed of that store
To be fair, it’s coming from people who wear rainbows, so I wouldn’t take it too personally 😊
@@blueraven166 Yeah lol everyone should feel comfortable wearing whatever they feel best in/like!
Dusty pink bob would look SOOOO PRETTY ON HERRRR
(Thanks for 1k likes even though it’s a basic comment😂)
xXJordynXx I agree so much, voted for it too ☺️ it is such an pretty colour
She has blue hair in the try on at then end is that what she had done??
I love the long blue 💙
IK I VOTED FOR IT

How does Alex not realize that black bird thing is one of Hello Kitty's friends?!?!
Ashley Summers
It’s Badtz-Maru! :)
I love Badtz Maru!!!! He's my favorite!!!! I watched a Hello Kitty documentary a few months back and learned that none of the Sanrio side characters are her friends. The creators were saying how they exist in the same universe and hang out but aren't actually friends. I was shocked and I'm still pretending that they're all besties against Sanrio's wishes.
idk, I'm 32, went thru a huge hello kitty phase, and I still remember
Thank you he was my FAVORITE
Ashley.Ford16 they “all hang out” but aren’t friends??? Sounds like shade to me... if those aren’t friends they’re frenemies bc wtf else could that mean. If you hang out with someone time to time it’s one or the other. Friend or frenemy
I love how invested and genuine Alex is about Tiashas shopping experience 🥰💚
It's cause she knows how Tiasha feels. She used to be bigger too. So cool she made the video all about her friend & didn't mention her own struggles shopping in Japan once!
She doesn't seem like lolita is her style (which is fine) but for plus sized lolita clothes Maxicamam is best. I mean occasionally other brands will have pieces that will fit, if there is plenty of shirring but the above indicated brand actually has a plus sized line! (called MAM) but it IS at normal lolita princes, so in other words it costs $$$ but as a size 18/20 US I was able to get a lolita dress from them that AMPLY fit me, just to give you an idea and yes it was expensive, but the quality was also on point.
I don't know why Japan is so anti having options for larger people. I always feel so bad for larger Japanese people (or larger East Asians in general) as it is a trend in Japan, Korea and Taiwan to not only rarely have their own brands that go up beyond say a size 8 but also for Western stores to STOP STOCKING SIZES for women's shoes at 8.5 and to stop stocking clothes with a number size from H&M, The Gap, Forever 21, ect at a US size 12 (even though all of these clothing companies go up higher in size). Like I do not understand how even in the busiest of locations in the country stores like ABC Mart (a shoe store) and the above listed western stores don't import the larger sizes, as the sizes exist and the market will exist in places like Shinjuku. I mean I know this video was not even about getting clothes from western stores in Japan, but the fact that these brands have larger sizes that ALREADY EXIST and that even the most centrally located of these stores refuse to import these larger sizes does a huge disservice to larger people in the country and also is potentially losing them a whole wackadoodle of money.
When I lived in Korea from 2008 - 2011 I felt really bad for women who were so large they would qualify as plus sized even in Canada and the USA as I got to wear reasonably nice clothes from back home but they were often stuck wearing not cute at all oversized graphic tees and parachute pants which can't give anyone a boost of confidence when they're already being pressured every which way to be thin in order to be conventionally attractive in society. Sure Seoul had a few places that sold some ok or nice large people clothes but they were NOT CHEAP and supposed that someone had the money and time to go into Seoul and then invest in these clothes.
Anyways, that aside LOVED the video as it did make me more aware of some options in Tokyo I wasn't aware of! Also your friend is really cute and I LOVE when friends in East Asia who can wear East Asian sizes support their larger friends (even if that friend is just "larger" in East Asia) on a quest to find cute clothes for them! (as I have been sheparded around many the time while my smaller friends have been looking for clothes and have in the meantime been lucky to find anything in these self same stores that both fit and that I like)
Michelle Hobbs I read an article from a business that is in I believe in China not Japan so I don’t know how different the customs are but the problem of not a lot of shops having plus size clothes in them seems to be shared in both countries and according to him data tells them that plus size women don’t particularly want to go in store to buy their clothes because they don’t feel comfortable trying them on in so they would prefer to order online because is more convenient then going to the store, try them on at home and if they don’t fit to return them and that way they don’t have to see anyone. I don’t know how true this is I just know that that is what the representative for that particular company stated.
Lydia Tomecko it May be true that plus sized women feel less comfortable buying the clothing in person, but, I now live in China and can confirm there are WAY more larger sizes here than in Japan, both in stores and online. H and M here goes to at least a US size 16, whereas in Japan sizes for clothes with numbers, at H and M stopped at 12. The GAP in Japan was even worse. Also in China, it’s not hard to find custom and larger sizes online, while it was hard to find custom and larger sizes in Japan comparatively (and was WAY more unaffordable when you could find it). Some might point out that you can buy XXL Uniqlo clothes online, but this was only for select pieces and was pretty far from being a US size XXL. When I was in Japan the XXL pieces also were not sold in any UNIQLO store in Osaka.
Liyu Ze I absolutely loved what you said until the last paragraph. The reason people find overweight people unattractive is because it’s unhealthy. Human beings look for health in a mate. Attraction is about mating whether we want to admit that or not. And point-blank overweight people are obviously unhealthy. Japan is just one of the few nations that doesn’t allow its people to go around claiming that being obviously unhealthy is healthy. The rest of the world has gone crazy with “body positivity” that encourages unhealthy behavior.
@@MamaMOB Being skinny can be unhealthy too
We Go in Harajuku has some plus size things. So does SYNDROME in Harajuku, Nissen, Clover Shop, and Bape all have plus sizes. I believe SYNDROME is on a second level of the shops so you just have to look up and there are plus size clothing shops on the second floors in Harajuku.
Do they have pleated skirts?
Plus size in Japan is extremely limited. All the stores you mentioned have 4XL which is roughly size 18AU, but fits more like 16AU. They think it all stops at 116cm bust size.
Loved this video. I'm a grandma and I just loved how excited you both were. You have a beautiful friendship.
julie morris Hi grandma
This is adorable
You are adorable ♥
this is literally all of my shopping experiences. sick of stores thinking that all plus size people want to dress like frumps.
i'm not pluss size but my mom is, and i feel her pain so hard, here pluss size are bad quality or good bad very expensive, and usually it looks like something a grandma would use. But on fancy stores, they just make small clothes, like if all old people were skinny.
Yes, either that or like Kylie Jenner
And thinking they have tons of money lol, like I understand the clothing being a bit more money cause you know more fabric = more money but like freaking DOUBLING or even TRIPLING the prices, that’s just awful
Ava Soybean part of the reason that these stores are more expensive is because they don’t have as many costumers, so they have to charge higher prices to stay in business
OR that they are ready to cash out lifesavings for anything larger than "average"...
I really can feel her when she's hugging what she got. Being even slightly bigger means you can't buy 85% of nice clothes, so when you get something that fits you AND looks nice you will cherish it forever
Alex: pulls out a BT21 shirt "idk what that is, but its cute!"
Me: *unholy screech*
15:44
same girl, same lol
I was like mgzlyzlgzlhx I wish I could get that form Finland 🙂
same!!! lol
Sameeee
@@elodieelvira7913 sammmeeeee
Did anyone else get stressed out when she was backwards on the escalator??? 😂😂
Jayy Jokela the mother/grandmother in me can’t handle that!
@@lynnhobby32321 I'm just such a klutz 😂😂😂
Why tho lol i get stressed when people dont walk up the escalator and just stand there
The little bird face on the black t-shirt is one of my favorite Sanrio characters, Badtz Maru! Love you both!
Yess😊❤ i love him too, he always grumpy 🤣🤣
Anna Sarsany surprised that Alex didn’t know he was a Sanrio character!
He's my favorite! With how obsessed Alex is with Hello Kitty, I'm surprised she didn't automatically know who he was lol. The second I day his little badass face I shouted his name lol... Yeah I adult real good.
Badtz Maru is a penguin!
I knew he was sanrio and I dont really watch or read anything sanrio
Imagine looking for clothes in Asia being plus size AND tall, lol.
Me
probably the same as looking for clothes in western countries when you're petite and short.
@@mpscats360 I have never felt this so deeply. I'm 5 ft and slim and I can rarely buy clothes in my area that I don't have to adapt to fit myself.
@@mpscats360 nope, because Western countries have a lot of children's and junior sized clothing. there's no equivalent of that for bigger sizes.
I’m an ok weight but 5’11 T-T
The clothes at Punyus are pretty cute but ¥4900 for a shirt is still not within my budget 😅😭
Alex you get a million good friend points!!! plus size shopping can be so disheartening you are so good!!!!
Alex is amazing! She made the whole video about her friend & didn't mention once that she herself used to be bigger. In one of her older videos she describes how upset she would get when trying to shop for clothes in Japan when she was plus size. Heart of gold ❤️
"Do they think that bigger people have bigger wallets?" This is my life as a plus size girl. Ugh.
So true! Im tired of paying up to $10 extra to get over a size Large in America
I think it’s because it’s more material, new patterns ,more thread and so on...🤷🏼♀️
If we are going by that logic, XS should be the cheapest and S ahould be a dollar more and then M should be another dollar more, so on and so forth. When Xs-L are all the same price yet still use more fabric than the previous, 1X-3/4X should also be the same price as the other 4 clothing items. Unless you want XS-$12 S-$13 M-$14 L-$15.
As a plus size girl you have to think of it logistically. Larger body means more fabric. More fabric costs more money
@@callmewaves1160 I am aware. I wear a size 2-3X. But Theres more fabric on a size Large than a size Small. I just said this but I'll say it again. If we go by that logic, sizes XS-L, should not all be the same price. A person who wears size large has a bigger body than a person who wears size small. If we go by what you are saying, XS should be the cheapest and the price just keeps raising a few dollars with every size up you go.
What I am saying is; Im tired of XS-L people paying $30 for something, and I have to pay $45. If we want everything to be fair, make everything the said baseline price of $30. Or have increasing prices with increasing sizes.
15:45 Alex: ohh what's this idk but it's cute Me: OMG that is BTS Bt21
I got v stressed hahahhaa
i screamed when i saw it and couldn't believe she doesn't know about bt21 sksksks
I know!!! I screamed!!!😭😭💜💜
@@thenightshiner2744 I mean not everyones gunna know and since she doesn't listen to kpop, it's not surprising.
I was searching for that comment right now 😂😂
Last year I found a lot of cute costumes in Don Quijote some going up to large sizes. I got one in 3XL!! I think the average size it goes up to is like 2XL so you'll have to dig through the section a bit. Definitely go to the Akihabara or Shibuya branch!
When i was in Japan earlier this year, i managed to get stuff from Spinns! there was a Spinns store in Osaka that i went to and there was no "plus size" however some of the larger items did fit (including a gorgeous coat that was on sale for $10!) I also got a skirt from ACDC RAG that fit me as well! FOr reference, I am a size 16-18 Australian
I wonder how Tokyo’s going to handle the 2020 Olympics tourist shoppers. 😨
the same as they've always done, this is what we have, take it or leave it. lol
They are gonna make bank lol
Nothing. The same thing Korea did. We didn't get any nicer plus size clothes either.
Update from March, 2020. They dont have to!
Wendy Harris dont worry about it lol
The dusty pink bob will look absolutely amazing on her, especially with her skin tone. I love that for her!!😍
Thank you so much for uploading this so I have a realistic idea of what to expect when I go to Japan as I am plus sized and was hoping to go shopping there for clothes. ❤️
Love from a small TH-camr
Big Bubbly Beauty a lil hack that me and my mom use when my dad buy clothes for us is relying on the plus size trend! People in japan looove using plus sized clothes which fit me normally or are even plus size for me (im a size 12-14) but you are most likely to find these type of clothes on high end brands like scot club but you can still find it in cheaper brands
Kaori IA I will look out for that! Thanks ❤️
Big Bubbly Beauty followed you!
Libya Khalef thank you! ❤️
33:10 that's badtz-maru (バッドばつ丸)! He's a sanrio character
I wear medium american sizes, 7 or 9 in pant sizes, 6 in dress size. When i went to japan, I KID YOU NOT, I DID NOT FIT IN ANYTHING!! i bought a few cute skirts in L and some shirts, but every single cute dress i found would be very tight around the boobs and a bit at the waist... I really wanted a lolita styled dress but no luck since theyre all "one size" :(
Thing is, im also too small for these big size shops, so even if i knew about them, it would still be too big :(
Very late answer but: There are many Lolita shops online (also second hand) and on some of them you can say our measurments and they will make it in that size or have sizes up to like 2XL for some dresses. I got my first two Lolita dresses from 'my-lolita-dress.com'. They have many sizes and even surprise bags (what I bought) where you can get dresses cheeper. There are many Lolitas that have problems because of there breast size and I think there are a few videos on youtube about where you can find dresses that fit with bigger breasts or how to alter dresses.
That’s my fear any time I try to order Asian sized clothes they never fit me because I think I fall in between the sizes, too big for the normal sizes and too small for the larger sizes. Plus my boobs are huge and now I have hips 😩
I'm Asian and even I don't know how to find good big sized clothes.
Please note that even in the limited "plus size" stores in Tokyo they only go up to asian 5X, which is the equivalent to US 14/16 (ie borderline plus size). An actual plus size person would SOL, I think.
Exactly!!!!
Exactly. I'm a size XL/XXL for pants in Japan and I'm way skinnier than Tiasha (but way bigger than Alex). Asian sizes are just smaller because the population tends to be smaller (many European sizes are too, I'm an XL in my country too). I usually shop at Shimamura for skinny pants, or buy man's pants in L/XL for oversize pants.
I feel like as a mid size girl I would literally not find anything in Japan.
Lara Like I was able to find some stuff there. I was around a US 10 when I was there and a lot of things had stretch and were free size.
I had to go to the American stores like forever 21 lol
I’m a aus 10 or us 6 and I struggled! I mostly bought clothes from more westernised shops like f21 and the Hard Rock Cafe 😂 but the accessories were amazing !
Japanese women are tiny. Get over it
@@blairence Ikr? It's like people don't understand that these shops are catering to the majority. I can guarantee that the majority of Japanese women will struggle finding clothes that fit in the US, I'm quite petite myself and I struggle as most things cater to taller or curvier people.
15:45 - I don't even know, but, but it's cuute.
Army - Dear Lord, yes. Yes, BT21 is the best ❤👌
I saw that part and immediately went into the comment to look for someone talking about it lol. Army's unite!!
@@mai-co7ct JUST DID THAT LMAO
Lol, me too...
Alex: What is this? It's cute tho...
Me: It's BT21!!!!!
Maybe I'm cheap....but 4900 yen is roughly $45 U.S. dollars and i would never pay that for just a shirt
Lexi Pirate I’m even cheaper it’s roughly like £36 and I wouldn’t pay £18 maybe like £5-10
@@hayleyhayhayb8129 Honestly, almost all the clothes I get for myself are from the clearance rack. If I can get a perfectly good shirt for $10 or less, I will. Very rarely do I get anything over $15 unless it's jeans because those always cost more.
I would only pay $5 to $10 max😆
I'm literally broke
Same here I’m a clearance and deal person and I wouldn’t pay more then 15$ for a dress or jeans, you can get quality and good price if you look around.
*All the kids in child labour felt that*
When are you gonna show the lab results from Jaclyn hill?
Good question!
It showed nothing
Anna Witt and you know this how…
two japanese plus size shops are Eur3 and supure. Supure has a shop in sunshine city ikebukuro
Me: *Have been watching PPP content all day and finally closed my laptop*
Alex: *uploads video*
Me: welp...load ‘er up! *opens laptop*
Hahaha same, I'm DEEP in the haul videos. 😅❤️
Emma Eglantine rarely Alex gets salty. I love it when she does!
I find it funny that she loves Hello Kitty but didn't recognize another Sanrio character 😂
Justice Prevail I kind of like hello kitty but just the hello kitty. Don’t know the rest of the character as well
@@theresia8822 just THE hello kitty????
I was laughing at that too lol
@The Lovely Mel Chan I'm younger than her and I know them lol
She knows a fair bit of other characters as well, I think it was just him she didn't know
I'd just spend most of my time shoppin in the mens, lookin like a lazy grunge boye
we stan forever tomboys
Crimson Camellia such a mood
I only ever shop in the mens section, sometimes very rarely ill see something that's nice like a tshirt or something in the woman's section and I'll get it but 99% of the time you'll catch me in the men's area xD
33:02 Thats Badtz Maru! He's another Sanrio character
The shops at the beginning of the video are what I have to deal with. Im a size 24, 5ft 9 and clothes in my size are so frumpy and boring as well as expensive 😭
Omg the BT21 merch that Alex pulled out at 15:46 😂😂 My little ARMY heart was shocked
Same!! I paused the video because i was so shocked to see that :D
Me too 😆😆😆
It was such a cute shirt too!!
Me tooo! It was so unexpected xD
Lol same
When she picked up the BT21 top and didn’t know who it was I died inside a little bit lol 😂
Samantha Rogers same 😭😂
Same 😂
Me toooo i said what??
Same 😭💜✨😔
Same 😭
15:44 is BT21!!! They're korean characters created by BTS one of the most popular korean boy band internationally! >~< 💜💜💜
abloomoon I got so excited when I saw it! I was like BTS!!! XD
abloomoon I literally gasped when I saw it
I'm not ARMY but I think Alex should review their make up. The packaging is SO cute!
@@MarinaEariel that is actually a great idea^^
abloomoon I was looking for this comment! lol
If that is what they consider a "4L", I would not find anything that would fit in Japan. >.<
US 10/12 isn't even in the plus size range to us. XD
Manyamz yea I live in Japan and it truly sucks shopping here it’s nothing like American sizes
Same in Korea. Don't expect that shopping will be easy. Imagine being plus size in your country then coming here. It's annoying.
@@crystalcorona9339 Because it's not America so why would they have American sizes when the majority of the people in Japan are Japanese? They're going to cater more to Japanese body types and sizes.
JLynnEchelon it’s not annoying. It’s rude to think it’s annoying cause it’s not catering to your size. They have a size system in place to cater to majority of their customers who live in their country. I’m a size medium in the US which would mean I’d be a 4xxl in Japan and I don’t think it’s annoying that I’ll never find clothing there. It’s just how their country works.
Her: *pulls out BT21 shirt* Oooh what's this?
Me: BTS!!!
Her: I dunno but it's cute.
Me: *DYING AND WANTS IT*
Darker skinned people always look so beautiful with lighter and brighter colours and shades. ❤️♥️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
I don't know if you're aware but Menchies is a Froyo place here in Canada(and the US?) And Cristine has even said that's what she named Menchie after
~Arianna~ she said “watch out simply” like simply naillogical
Yeah it's a froyo place here in the US. I don't know where it started at but its very well known.
@@carsoncornelisse3489 Yes, I'm highly aware...did you not read my comment? That's literally who I'm talking about...
@@CheshieD I just checked, it was founded in Cali😊
Who are you trying to make aware?
15:44 That's BT21 characters created by BTS! Damn, wish I was there to buy it 😂❤️
BT21 is in EVERY shop in Korea. Literally every store. Bookstores, grocery stores, allll of themmmmm. Stationary, pillows, cutlery. BT21 everything. BTS merch won't be in stores, but BT21 will be. BTS are super big in Japan too so I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same. Its hardly a find. lol
Same!!!
Shimamura (and their sub-brand/store Avail) was my go to for larger clothing (I'm European L/XL size) when I lived in Japan. The collection is better in some stores than others, but I thought they had many cute pieces that were pretty similar to the trends in other Japanese shops, so I was really happy I could be trendy! They are the only chain store in Japan that have a dedicated plus size section that I know of.
The standard GU and Uniqlo chain stores generally don't have big sizes, but some pieces and t-shirts were giving enough that I could fit in. Whenever I saw something cute I would just try the biggest size and sometimes it was a hit and sometimes it was a miss. I bought some of my favorite clothing pieces in GU! And the graphic tees at Uniqlo are just too cute with fun collaborations with for example Disney, Marvel, designers etc.
As for online shopping in Japan (apart from international brands), RyuRyu has some of their items up to 6XL. You can just sort their clothing by the size you need and see if there is any cute Japanese style clothing that you like! I've bought the prettiest lace dress ever there.
Edit: I almost forgot Honeys! They are also a chain store with physical and online stores and generally have a very cutesie-casual style. They only go up to LL, but with certain pieces and styles (like oversized styles) you could find some cute pieces that fit if you're an L/XL size in the EU, especially if you don't have a large bust (which was my problem most of the time).
When she’s genuinely triggered about the lack of cute/cheaper plus size clothes for her friend is big energy ❤️
Thanks for doing this as I wanted to know what they do with plus size girls living or visiting Japan..I am a us size 16 and found that alternative clothing brands are much more plus size friendly, I only buy from Listen Flavor, Sex Pot Revenge and ACDC Rag. I can also fit oversized Liz Lisa tops..I think neon hair will look great on Tayaisha and also that black bird on the black tee is badtz Maru! He’s one of Hello Kitty’s friends!
hey im the same size as you and have you had any luck with skirts and pants in japan???
Also thank for the video is a struggle to find cute clothes for us plus girls
The bird is Badzt Maru, one of my fave sanrio characters. Suprised you didn't know since he is with Hello kitty on a lot of merch. He is a really cute penguin.
The shirt was ripped, ohno.
Alex: "Terrible."
My mind: "TEARrible hahahaha"
I wish my straight sized friends were this dedicated to making sure my shopping experience is equal to theirs! I have always hated shopping because I would end up on the other side of the store (usually next to the maternity section for some reason) and not get that shopping banter that you get to have with friends like “look at this omg “ and “that’s cute...oop...not $100 cute tho geeeez”. And I always end up done looking way before them because my section is so much smaller. I need an Alex to my Tiasha!
👏 *WITH* 👏 *WHAT* 👏 *MONEY* 👏
(I refer the first OIOI store)
Me every time I watch a Japanese haul video lol
@@makeda6530 lmao.
.... alex you say you're into Sanrio and yet you don't know bad batz Naru... smh
*maru
Badtz Maru*
Lol backfired
FACTS
badtz maru
Yess!! Happy you look into other bodytypes too🤗🤗🤗 love your videoss💖
I love Tiasha, she's such a positive spirit.
And Alex of course, duh.
Tiasha us such a cutie, I love her energy so much. Your positive vibes really put a smile on my face every time!
Also, when you showed that tshirt at 15:46 my heart jumped a little and I wanted to crawl through my screen to snatch it from you, because BT21 are characters made by BTS!
On the shirt that has the rips on the sides you could add some really cool ribbon to it
As a UK size 16/18 AND 6ft 2 I doubt I will ever find clothes in Japan 😂
lowkey neon would look so pretty with her skintoneeee❤ every one of those colors will prolly look great tho💕
This is so helpfull
As someone who is not the average size at all here in Argentina, i was a little bit worried that i could never find my size in Japan.
Thank you for this video, it's amazing 💛💛💛
That's a Sanrio character! Badtz-Maru! ❤💕💕
For the hairstyle, number 4 is my personal favourite but I think the one that'd suit her the best would be number 1
As a 5'8" girl who wears an 18, no way I could ever get into Japan's "plus" but OMG you're just adorable and I love your enthusiasm. Watching your excitement makes me excited too!
Option 1 the dusty pink will look so cute for her
Also the shirt in 15:45 is a BT21 shirt, BT21 is a group of cute characters created by the South Korean boy group BTS and each character represents one of the members. They have a lot of merch, like the one you saw, like shirts, plushies, keychains etc. on their site : )
Love you Alex
Ok but why is nobody talking about how pretty she is. Nobody would be able to pull of those clown gren pants but her like?? HOW and she can pull of the green hair like ugh i can't
When Alex picked up the bt21 shit and said "idk what it is but it's cute" 😱 I'm shook
i love tiasha!! as a brown girl i genuinely think it’s inspiring to see brown women with coloured hair? weirdly specific i know
And colored hair looks super good on people with dark complexions! As a pale white chic, I can tell you that for a lot of us, colored hair washes ous out and makes us look paler or even sickly sometimes. Not all white people but a lot of us so I think dark skinned people are lucky lol.
Anyways, I think that the pink,hair would also,fit Tiasha as a person. Shes so gentle and bright! Plus the bob will frame her face nicely ☺
(I'm sorry if anything I said is offensive to anyone in anyway. Im not very good at wording things sometimes or thinking through what I say before I say it so please be nice 😅)
So what I’ve always wondered that if the options are so limited for plus size how do plus size people who actually live in Japan or South Korea do their clothing shopping
Japan isn't really facing the same weight epidemic as the western world. There just aren't as many plus sized folk living in that country, so retailers aren't as concerned about catering to their needs. I think about 3% of the population is overweight. I'm guessing it's mainly online, as companies don't want to use floor space on less than 5% of their potential customers.
i watched a video where they said they would go to like stores that are common in america like H&M
@@PupCake1025 I think you would be a little bit shocked. Obesity rate in japan (according to indexmundi, which is a good source for this kind of thing) is 4.3% in 2016.
The amount of people who are overweight but not obese is much higher, at 28.6% of men and 20.6% of women.
We need more recent readings on these things though, but I suspect things have gotten worse.
When my partner went to japan for a month last year he saw a lot of overweight japanese people, many more than he expected. And not just in touristy areas.
These people won't fit into the size S or M that most shops offer, so I'm guessing close to 20% of the female population needs an L or bigger.
What I've heard about plus size shopping is that if you are looking for a specific style (and not just a basic black t-shirt) you will have the most luck online.
Over the last 5 years more plus sized stores have been opened, I think Japan is just a little behind.
15 years ago it was very different, if you were plus sized you would probably need to settle for very basic stuff for work and casual wear. Many people wore sweat pants and very large t-shirts if they couldn't go to international stores such as H&M.
Alex: hey guys, its Alex!
Me: AND EVERYONES FAVORITE BIRRRDD, ARCHIEEEEE💚
Nessa Hughes don’t forget the little: yeaaaah
One thing I find a little strange with so many stores NOT having bigger sizes...is the tourist areas. Like I get it. I understand. Most Japanese are healthy and small (stupid US having so much crap in the food, where companies have to change the ingredients to ship to other countries)(and other ppl around the world don’t understand why so many here are fluffy...this is why) I digress....if it’s a tourist spot. They should have a wide range. Do they just not want to make money? I mean come on. I would totally understand not stocking bigger sizes in the more non tourist areas. So many shops are small. I just think they are missing out on millions, if not billions. Seems like a real missed opportunity for Japan’s economy. And probably many thousands of girls crying bc they couldn’t get any of the amazing Japanese fashion. It’s a real shame. They are missing out on so much more money.
Me when I saw the BT21 shirt : “DO yOu kNOw BtS???”
*if you reading this, I hope you had a great day... (read more💛)*
*And a great week, and a great month, and a great 2019! And If you’re day wasnt going so good remember there are 364 other days so everything will turn out just fine* 💕💖💗*love from a small youtuber* 💓
One of my motivations to lose weight is to be able to maybe fit into some of Japans clothing when I go visit but this gives me a lot of relief to know that there's still hope if I don't hit my goal before I go there!! All the outfits were so cute!
Nat Weidmann good luck! It’s one of my goals to fit in their clothes too.
Nat Weidmann best of luck in your health endeavors! Also trying to lose weight
Tiasha is an total babe and has the most gorgeous smile 💛
The ruffled waistband trouser are called paper-bag trousers as the look like the gathered top of a paper bag 🛍
Who else screamed when they saw the bt21 shirt ??💜💜💜
That was "Hikakin". Japanese TH-camr. The one looks like bee man.
sadly i think you pay extra for the "extra fabric".. it sound silly, but i work in mens wear in australia and we charge almost double for the same top in "big mens" sizing. sad really, but this is my best bet
The cost of extra fabric is literally negligible, pennies. Don't believe the hype. It doesn't cost 25 extra dollars to make a bigger version of a 25 dollar top
yeah it happens on online retailers all the time especially! just the other day i wanted a 1x or 2x shirt so it would be the sliiiiightest bit big on me, for comfort, but the xl was a whole 10 dollars less. had to get the one that fit a bit more acurately instead, and i'm lucky to have had that luxury! if i were actually 1 or 2 or 3x i probably wouldn't have gotten it at all :(
@@hj6507 no it doesn't cost that but they charge it, they do it at hot topic, a size small shirt can be $23 but a 3XL will be $29, like why should people have to pay more because they're not born small
@@meijelly everyone is born small, but no one is born as a plus-size
@@idushka not true lol my friend was born 12 lbs and is 'overweight' today. but I get what you're saying lol
The black bird shirt is Bad Badtz-Maru he's a penguin from Sanrio
I think option #2 would look best with the yellow bridesmaid dress she’ll wear if she’s still wearing pastel yellow. Plus it’s going to look great with everything! Congrats on getting married btw! I’m getting married in October 💜🧡
You guys are calling stuff that i consider normal mom stuff but you guys like things bright and out there lol
Im not plus size, but im not small, i dont have a skinny waist so i never buy clothes from Asian stores but it makes me happy that there are stores that cater to bigger sizes 🥺☺️
definitely the dusty pink bob!!!
The T-Shirt in 15:45 is BTS (K-Pop group) merch! The characters were designed by them and they are called BT21
Wow im so early only 360 quality available 👏 Notification squad woooo!
abloomoon woooo
She reallllyyyy knows how to dress for her body, EVERYTHING looked sooooooo amazing on her like holy crap, I'm considered "plus size" and struggle soooooo much with how clothes look on me and finding flattering clothes. My size is us 9-11 L-XL which u can find in almost all stores besides like Hollister but who really shops there anyway lol but I've always had problems with my weight ive also been a size zero or XS before and I've always been jealous of women like her that have a real eye for clothes that are so flattering I just haven't been able to ever pull stuff like that off... as I get older.. 27 now I've become more confident and comfortable with myself and I've branched out (somewhat) lol but I'm still struggling and I just had to say how beautiful everything was, her style is amazing and those green pants looked AMAZING:)
I'm a similar size to Alex, but a lot of my friends are quite curvaceous so I always used to feel self conscious and wore boring clothes to hide my lack of a figure, then one day I threw caution to the wind with a mustard straight fit suit from Stradivarius (they sell them in lots of colours and I think they'd suit anyone). Basically, be brave with your style and it will make you feel so much for confident in yourself. If you love what you're wearing, you won't care if someone else doesn't. If people stare when I'm wearing something wacky, I don't stop to think if they love it or hate because I'm just happy in it
Covely’s name was written in Katakana on the outside of the building, I saw from footage.
Edit: please don’t say costumey and lolita in the same sentence we struggle enough with that 😭
the dusty bob would look amazing with her skin tone and look gorgeous
Omg isn’t that Badtz Maru from Sanrio on that shirt??!!! 💖💖💖
Tiasha is one of my, If Not my favorite of your Friends. She is Just Like me... The Hair the plussize the quirky-ness i Love her
The shirt @ 15:27 is the merch of a famous Japanese TH-camr Hikakin :)
When you said "15 thousand yen" my eyes went O.O LOL wasn't expecting that
That's insane how much the plus size costs! Its a shame there isn't more plus sized places in Japan, but most of the Japanese are quite small.
Omg i'm so excited as a plussize curvy model 😍😍😍😍😍
Gaëlle Wauthier I like Sierra sultzzie on YT (think that’s the close)
PINKKKKK!!!! #1 it would be beautiful on an already beautiful lady!!!
Asia s obesity rate is the lowest in the world at 6% that s why there are not many plus size stores. I wear US 6 and I am considered an XL n Asia lol.
For those heading to japan, I have a Honey Cinnamon dress and it fits me perfect as a size UK 10, and it would fit up to a UK 12 🧡
EDIT: in response to most things being a UK 6 or 8 at most!
