Hara What???

This year's Turn-About Dance theme was
'Take me to Tokyo'
Hailey and her friends decided to dress according to the theme.
Harajuku style originated among teens on the streets of the Harajuku Shopping District in Tokyo. It may have been brought to many people's attention by American singer Gwen Stefani, but the evolution of the style certainly didn't begin with her and it certainly won't end with her. Like many "street fashions" it is difficult to characterize, both because it is constantly changing and because it has many manifestations. There is no cookie-cutter approach to this style
Here is the Santa Rosa High School version of Harajuku!
Yes, that is a Pokemon shirt Hailey is wearing!

Hailey and Matt
I think it is fun that they dress to match the theme! In the olden days when I was in High School we always dressed formal. I sure enjoyed paying $4 for a Pokemon t-shirt from Ross versus $80 plus for a dress. A good time was had by all!

Yikes! I don't think we ever had anything that creative when I was in high school and that wasn't too long ago.
