Harajuku Chicks

Harajuku, one of the many downtown areas of Tokyo, is known throughout Japan as a place where teens with a "different" fashion sense congregate on the weekends.
The main attraction for the teens is a big shopping street with tons of clothing stores with ridiculous outfits. The main attraction for the tourists, both foreign and Japanese, is to see people wearing some of these things.
From what I've been told, most of the people who go there all dressed up are high school girls from the suburbs who are outcasts where they live. However, on the weekend they come into the city, and because of their "interesting" clothes, people pay attention to them and take pictures of them.
On these girls, I think the butterflies were an especially nice touch ;)
