Thrift stores in Japan: cute stuff, different styles, designer clothes, excellent condition.
Thrift stores in Buenos Aires: one or two nice things, clothes your grandma would have buried her enemies in, mistakes from the dark ages.
Oh, well.
Evey! Jajajajajajajajajajaj real que si
Y encima te arrancan la cabeza con los precios que les pones acá ajaj

Thrifting/shopping in Japan is bucket list for me so jealous

Same!!! Ahhh it makes me so jelly! 😭

Same!
These don’t even seem like thrift stores, they look like actual stores. I really want to thrift in japan
seeing how clean and nice these thrift shops are makes me realize how nasty america thrift stores are 😭
and Philippines smh
Some of Canada stores are like this too, sadly

"I know what you are saying and I totally hear you... but put them away." I need a friend like this.
so glad to find you alive after those jaclyn swatches
Surprised her hand didn't fall off lmao
This video was before the lipstick stuff
Kalico44 I think she filmed the intro after the jaclyn hill video!
This is the best video to post after that mess!
@@ilcuoresemplice oh yeah for sure the intro was recorded after haha
for all u ppl who like thrifting in Harajuku there is a hidden store called santonibunoichi, the people at the store are MEGA NICE its un poco pricy but their aesthetic is amazing
I wish I could go thrifting/shopping in japan but I'm chubby lol.
@@helenwalker4063 being chubby doesn't stop anyone thrifting!!!!
@@MARINA-tg9oy maybe chubby means she can not fit through the door to leave her house.
@@MARINA-tg9oy maybe they don't have her sizes
@@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233 not everyone in Japan is skinny! it might be harder as japanese people tend to be of a smaller build but that does not go for everyone. Also if it's thrifting, there is bound to be something for all sizes, it just might be harder to find.
Alex: I only listen to Metal
Also Alex: **AGGRESSIVELY SINGS ALONG TO CHEAP THRILLS**
I absolutely can relate
I'm so glad she hasn't got demonitized by playing/dancing along with it ♥️
I 100% relate

Can you make a video talking about how to travel in Japan? Like how to book hotels, flights, the cost of traveling there, food, how communication is if you speak little to know Japanese, how to travel between cities etc.
It would be super helpful and interesting to learn !
Yes yes yes!!!
Julia Crisan I have a few tips about Japan:
1. Do not blow your nose in public as it is considered rude. You can sniffle all you want or just find a private place to blow your nose.
2. Do not tip the waitress. It will make them confused. So that’s 30% of your money saved.
3. Please bow when you say thank you. Especially when your given a gift, and apologizing.
4. Take gifts with both hands. Even when handing a gift.
5. Do not say Baka (Idiot) as it is considered VERY rude.
6. Wear a surgeon mask if your sick.
7. You will have to eat all of the food on your plate. If you think you can’t finish too much then order a small meal.
8. Do not stick your chopsticks in food (like rice). Those are used in funerals. Don’t hit your bowl with the chopsticks either.
9. Please respect elders (Especially disabled people) on a public transport. If they can’t find a seat please give up your seat.
10. Do not use your phone on a public transport.
11. If you have tattoos please cover them. If your tattoos show the Japanese will think your part of a group called the Yakuza (A group a gangsters.).
12. Shower before entering a hot springs.
Gacha Gamer I don’t understand tip number 8 can you elaborate on that please?? What do you mean sticking your chopsticks in food??
@@jackcurtis1484 if you're going to put your chopsticks down to drink water, check your phone or do something else, lay them flat on the edge of the bowl, don't stick them upright (food side down, holding side up in the air) into your rice so the chopsticks stand upright by themselves. It's rude in Japanese, Chinese and I believe Korean culture as well.
Gacha Gamer oh I have one! When putting your chopsticks down, make sure their pointing to the left
7/11 in Japan: cute novelty foods, decent quality meals
7/11 in America: Big Gulp and tetanus
I've never been to 7/11 in America because they're always tiny stores by the gas stations. I'd rather go to a cute little bodega by my co-op.
Yeah but the slurpee will always be good
7/11 in Australia: DONUTS!!!
Honestly same with Japanese dollar stores vs American dollar stores. Cute, quality stuff vs broken, dirty, knockoff crap
7/11 in England: N/A
You're out here inadvertently teaching me how yen converts
Not exactly doe
yen is roughly a cent 1 yen = 1 cent roughly
Ye, no need to be exact since it constantly changes but it's good enough to guesstimate the prices.
I like how Alex just gets stuff without even looking at the size
In all fairness, she's a small girl and Japanese sizes are small. Plus, she probably does check the size and you just don't see it or notice it.
draw bootiful and she did try the stuff on-
@@emracck i-
Hey! Fashion nerd here, Jeremy Scott is an American designer and the current director of Moschino, but he got his fame from his collabs with Adidas. He’s probably done about 8 or so at this point. I collect Jeremy Scott shoes, and the ones you saw were both worth around £250 when brand new.
Lol i was like why did they dont know. He helps with the whole mylittlepony x moschino and barbie stuff
I thought she would get those!!! 💖😍😀
Frency Felicia P. wait whaaatt
Well said...I’m obsessed with moschino
@@suides4810 he's most known for his pop culture collabs. Im very dissapionted that alex didnt know. She would love all his work
Last time I was this early Jaclyn’s lipsticks were still fresh
Marie Vanleeuw Jaclyn’s*
Dani Stands Flowers Thanks 😊🌺
So.. never?
Marie Vanleeuw 😂😂😂😂👏👏👏
They never were lol
and those stores are soooooo well organized and decorated that they dont look like a thrift store.
Tiasha is the shopping partner we all need. She's so patient and supporting 😍
Let's take a moment to thank Tiasha for not letting Alex empty all the shelves in the shops xD
You're all welcome
@@MarshmallowGals hello tiasha
F in the chat for all my boys in England, where most charity shops have about three ancient t-shirts and a green hat
Stale Memes literally F @myself
I'm in WA (western Australia) and we are the same. We are the isolated state. All the other states are cool
@Kayla Lee big F my dude
ikr, everything is random old sequin shirts from 2006 or jeans so low-waisted it should be a crime to wear them ahahaha
Phat F
when alex said '$600 later' i literally gasped
Way late but me too 😂
Alex those purple grapes actually arent ice cream, they are meant to flavour seltzer water. You put about 2 of them into a cup, and pour water over it. That's why they're so sweet
Hahahsha
....omg 😂
Is it? The commercial for those things just shows them eating it..
What, no? You just eat them.
What kind of misinformation..
Waiting for the Jaclyn hill lipsticks report from lab
She said it might take a couple of weeks for the results to come out
while you’re waiting i believe other people sent them to labs and got them tested and results, not sure how legit they are though or if they’re telling the truth
@@radasmrrdo you have links or names?
@@jolienvsndijk there's a youtuber named Kenna who is a biochemist and works in quality management and formulation for cosmetics who posted her impression and is doing tests, she said she should have her results by early next week!
Omfg Alex every time you undress the mannequins I get secondhand anxiety 😅😅
whatta great pun
When I go to Japan with my boyfriend...poor guy is going to have to deal with me thrifting half the time
Oh my goodness no. Leave your boyfriend to chill somewhere close by with a cool drink or something. I tried that in Thailand and vowed never again. When you thrift you need total focus. Lol. Happy thrifting.
I wish I could do that..
Guys hate going shopping
@@adrianasilitonga7335 nahhh my brother loves shopping
I just looked in the net, the gold Jeremy Scott sneakers are still retailed at $381.
no one:
me: *maybe going to go to japan just to go to the thrift stores*
this was literally me! and it was worth it
And cafes! They have such cute character and aesthetic cafes there
Meeee
"i know what you're saying and i totally hear you...but put them away." 😂😂😂
LOL she really knows how to say no in a mannered way 😂
Honestly those shoes were horrendous 😂😂
@@sea5205 Am I weird? Cause I liked it! Its like a japanese street fashion.
Don Don Down is legit the best thrift store in Japan imo. It's called 'on Wednesday' because every Wednesday the prices go down! They also frequently have huge sales, but it can get super crowded on those days because the store in Shibuya is so narrow
WHAT? I need to go there! They have trendy clothes for so cheap! And the food looks amazing 😭
Cool
There's a Benedict Cumberbatch narration of Sherlock Holmes? That's it I'm getting Audible😍😍😍
I prefer the Stephen Fry one 🥰
I really enjoyed the Benedict Cumberbatch one! I haven’t listened to the Stephen Fry’s version and I actually didn’t know he had narrated Sherlock Holmes. That might have to be my next audiobook.
I did listen to Fry’s narration of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy though and it was top notch!
Um, sweetie . I listen to that every night as I'm falling asleep. So soothing. Its actually here on CZcams. Check it out for free
@@scienceofpie I personally like the Benedict Cucumbersnatch one much better. But both are great

Coco choco pop did it last?
Dani Stands Flowers my phones literally at 9% as I’m reading your comment.
@@danielaflores8090 It died 😭😭 I failed
Coco choco pop that’s sad to hear lol
Coco choco pop how far did you get
Is anybody else like dying to see the haul of everything???
OMG!!! I can't believe you put back the Tokyo Disney Mickey pixelated hoodie! That was so cool!
98% of my clothing is thrifted. And my DREAM is to go thrifting in Japan...i want to move to Japan one day, before i turn 35, thats my like MAIN LIFE GOAL.
Shawnie Lynn you can make it happen!
Omg same
Do it! You'll love it. My sister was there for a year and it was everything she dreamt of and more. You can teach English in Japan and get paid for it if you're able to relocate and have the skill set companies are looking for. Look into it! Good luck girl get that dream!
If you save $30 a week for 3 years you can go on a decent budget.
Alex: *clears throat in Hermione* It's AHHH-dee-dahs, not ah-DEEEE-dus.
Hate people like that nobody cares
She said it right tho 😌
My husband and I went to Japan for our Honeymoon this year and loved it! Why did Daniel not come this time? Did your friend buy anything too or just watch you shop 😂
I'm very curious about where the heck Alex stores all this clothing that she buys xD
Yes!! I have a 3 bedroom house and my clothes fill each closet and they are packed so tight
I think she used to have a room or two dedicated to her clothing
Your pronounciation of Adidas is right. Greetings from germany

She has a style and needs more kawaii stuff
Yeah Alex like do you really need this 😹😂😂🤣🤣😂😅🤣😂😅🤣😜😅🤣😹😹😹😹😹😸😸😸😺😺🤭😉😏😊🙂🙃☺️😘😚😙🥰😚🤭🤗😜😋😑😭😂😂😂😂😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@alexscott8773 I need more kawaii stuff
Jeremy Scott is the designer for Moschino. He is EPIC. You have yourself something VERY SPECIAL in those shoes you found. I’m literally dying here! Ermagherd!!!!!!
I would spend SO MUCH MONEY in Japan!
Next time you go, take me ❤️
I was binging all of your OG content and IM SO EXCITED THAG YOU UPLOADED MORE RN
I screamed really loudly when you uploaded and my cat attacked me and now I'm in pain
Your cat is smart.
@TellyToby 710 original content OG
RN right now
Alex and archie can fix that pain
I find that hard to believe
Lol 😂
Tiasha (spelling?) is gorgeous. Love that blue/purple hair, but we all need a voice of reason. I'd lose it in that last store!
Thank sweet angel😍😍
Seeing her in that first outfit brought a huge smile to my face, she’s so cute in everything she wears
Just loving how clean everything is in these streets. I loved Japan for this very reason. Nice people to!!
GIRL IM LEGIT ABOUT TO BOARD A PLANE TO TOKYO YOU LIFESAVER 😭😭♥️
Hope you have a great journey 🌻
Have fun there!!
HAVE FUN!!!! 😍💓💓
Have fun!!!!
Thanks guys! :D
Your eyebrows in this vid really suit you! You look like one of those girls in whimsical watercolour paintings uwu
Niki Castro that's was my first thought!
Hmmm... I didn’t like the eyebrows today. Maybe it’s me.
I like the lighter brow color on her. I’ll admit I prefer her old style of brows instead of the new blocky ones, but she still looks nice
Idk if it's the lashes ,but her eyes look squished almost like she has filler in her cheeks idk something is off thought lol
Joanna Mackay yeah I think it’s the lashes
I can’t wait for the next two videos
I loved watching this
And I’m grateful for you showing us all the best places to go
I love these videos even more than your brand hauls. Sustainable fashion :)
girl
you should have gotten that Dior too
it was like 156 USD
but i probably goes for like 1000-2000 ....
WAIT REALLY???? Oh god I think i've made a terrible mistake 😂
i love how much you respect japanese culture, thank you
yee haw I don’t think stripping the mannequins was very respectful!
@@nil-8026 how so??
@@Mink071 I would assume you'd go get a clerk to "clear" that mannequin of it's clothing pieces and bag. I actually got a pair of shorts off a half mannequin as that one was the last one in my size (in mens) in the whole store (this was a surf shop in Hawaii, not Japan) after asking the a floor employee to get it off the rack, he asked me if I wanted it off the mannequin...after finding out there was no more on the rack in my size.
- I know I'm not the person this was a reply to, but I have a feeling they aren't going to come back and respond....as they already have. I can't blame Alex though since most of us (if we're from the AUS, UK, or US) don't really know how to make fully coherent sentences asking a store employee to take the outfit off of the mannequin in Japanese. Heck I'm Japanese and I can't even speak a word my ancestors language, but oddly I can sing it though if I have the song playing in the background (mainly any vocal theme from the games I play).
singing and dancing loudly as the only foreigner was also quite rude.
@@aishaalegre704 who would have known that?! I surely wouldn't have. If everything everyone does is rude, maybe Japan should have their rules & manner recommendations posted somewhere??
wait the music selection in this video is great! im having so much fun watching thiss video, the music isnt distracting, instead it adds to the fun of the video and im here for it. i love shopping ;A;
You are so lucky to have an amazing friend, Tiasha is very cool and also adorable!
WHEN IS THE HAUL?!!! I NEEEEEEEEEED TO SEE EVERYTHING YOU GOT IN THE LAST STORE!!!!!
PS Sorry for shouting, I got excited!
SHE JUST BIT INTO ICE CREAM WITHOUT FLINCHING WHAT KIND OF SORCERY IS THIS
The tales of Otori are one of my favorite book series. So glad that you are listening to them!
I have a serious question: how do you actually clean up Archie poo if it gets on the floor or your clothes? Is there a specific cleaner you use, or just regular household stuff?
I just woke up from a nap and this is the first thing I see. Now I'm feeling super happy😄💕
Jeremy Scott is a really expensive designer and currently designs for Moschino. Those shoes were AMAZING prices for anything with his name!
It fills me with joy to see you also do the same thing in stores I do, and make all the labels line up and look all neat and organised. So satisfying
Omg I’m so excited! I’m going to Japan in December and I can’t wait to go thrifting!!
Tiasha, thank you for stopping Alex from buying those appalling shoes
-the fans screaming no
It was my duty and my honour to serve you guys
I feel like Alex is one of the few people who would pull it off tho x)
They’re Jeremy Scott though hahaha..surprise she didn’t recognize the designer name n know they’re worth hundreds of dollars
OMG AH I'm only like 4 mins in but I HAD TO comment because I read the nightingale floor books (I think 2 or 3) when I was a young teen and have always felt like it's such an amazing story that not enough people know about. It was such a beautiful experience to read those books and have an insight into Japanese history and it definitely aided me in my current obsession with Japan. Omg I'm just so happy someone with a platform has spoken about it!
pineapple converse!!!!
It's a kind of joy to watch others' receive joy from shopping.
I need to go thrift shopping in Japan. I absolutely need to go to that last store you went to.
Also, watching the ads to help a girl out with her shopaholic ways
The white overalls with that light lavender purple tank top and your white platforms, a LOOK
So I googled the Jeremy Scott shoes, and the golden winged ones are 1000 bucks. You should've gotten them :) Now I have a mission of finding crazy affordable shoes.
Barby Jarc I would fall apart if I found Jeremy Scott/Adidas in a thrift store
I was looking at that ... only the size 9 ones are 1k the rest of them are like a little less then 400... good deal if u plan on wearing them. Not so great for resale 😊
and the condition of the shoes looks great
This was my fav video of yours. Japan is killing the thrift game. You found some amazing stuff!!!!
I’m most impressed by the 7 Eleven I had no clue they were in Japan
They're a Japanese brand, they're in most East Asian countries as well as Australia
Nicole Angelella they r everywhere
It's Japanese owned since the 90's.
I'm sure this video is going to be great but I just felt the need to mention that Archie is such a beautiful bird!! It's worth enduring his big mouth to appreciate his gorgeous plumage hahaha.
TBH.. the last couple of thrift shops looked better than the first ones, especially the last one. So don't blame yourself this time. Anyone would go crazy there T.T
her dancing is so flipping cute!!!!
love your energy and style. So many cute things in Japan. My son was also there for a year, 2019. Had I known so many great thrift shops there would have sent him off to buy cartons of clothes for me.
😂😂😂 I’m honestly like your friend on the video ... I’ve been helping my friend dorm shop and I have to be like “look at your Cart and look at your hand ...put it back😑😂”
Girl you get me
Your friend's hair is so cute :0
Thank you for this! Last year was my first time in japan so I didn’t know how great thrifting was in Japan so next year I can def check out these places! Also please get ur self some Jeremy Scott pieces next time u go and lastly forever 21 2 years ago made that very same fluffy pastel blue bag with heart in a smaller version in pink! It’s still one of my faves!
The last store was KILLER. Never really thought about it but anywhere you travel it would probably be really fun to go to the thrift stores.
0:10 auto-subtitles: "hey everyone it's me Alex and everyone's favorite bud ah tea" we love the ozzie accent
Not gonna lie I'm sitting here eating this with a bowl of the leftover raw cake mix....
Really need to evaluate a couple things, but amazing video.
Rebecca F don’t get salmonella 💀
You're living life 😂😂 I love this
Im leaving to Japan tomorrow so this video is perfect!
I love love loved this video!!! And I think your makeup is beautiful during the intro! You look so bright eyed and fresh faced!!!! 💖💖💖 can’t wait to see you wearing these items!
I love your videos so much! You inspired me to wear pastel colors, i always wore black, but now i just love pastel clothes! 💖 I can't wait to see the video! I wish I could go in Japan ;(
You could combine that brown denim skirt with that lilac crop top ☺️
I love that long skirt! I am in college to become a teacher and I just love seeing stuff like that and thinking abt how cute it would look as a funky teacher outfit
Greece. Lots of surprises in the shops. I love the plaka.
i am planning to move (from germany) to Australia for other reasons
but the fact you said you have good thrift shops sold it to me
I know what you’re saying and I totally hear you - but put them away!“ 🤣🤣
Those clothes though.... 😍😍😍
That looked like so much fun! You found some great stuff!
Yes! A nice loooong vlog! From pretty pastel please!!! Time to get my popcorn 🍿!!!
How many empty suitcases did you take to Japan Alex? 🤔😁
you can just mail everything to your house
@@anonymousperson3690 HOW HAVE I NEVER THOUGH ABOUT THAT?!
omg I would die if I found a pair of Adidas Jeremy Scott shoes in a thrift store
I love your videos so much and especially since your videos are always long. They help me a lot and they keep me busy.
You honestly have such good content it’s so pure and relaxing
In Denmark we have designer thrift store
I was actually too jealous when you pulled out the blue nike t-shirt. It was so awesome
(Også fra Danmark, halløj! Skriver dog lige på engelsk så andre evt kan forstå det)
The best thing though is when you find designer clothes in regular thrift stores for super cheap! (Not necessarily Gucci, Louis Vuitton and other super super high end brands but still designer brands) I have gotten Louboutin shoes (120 DKK), a Stasia dress (20 or 30 DKK), a Marimekko dress (80 DKK), Malene Birger pants (maybe 40 DKK), Wood Wood pants (40 DKK), a Wood Wood shirt (35 DKK) etc
Also a dane here. I'm really curious as to where these designer thrift stores are located? I live in northern jutland in Sæby so I'm not sure if it's because of my location I've never heard of these stores or if it's just because I don't get out enough🙈
I’ve been binge watching all of your videos like every day 😭😍
love these theifting in Japan videoss-
I seriously loved sooo much of the stuff you DIDN’T get! That glittery rainbow crop top was everything!! I think even Tiasha wanted you to get it!
Yay Archie is back!
And PrettyPastelPlease....of course!❤❤❤
You could do a vlog on getting Japanese skincare and make up then you could do a haul and a make up look with what you got, the next time you go of course. Much love😊❤❤
I'm 8 minutes into this video when you guys talk about corn and mayo together. This is elotes or Mexican street corn and it's amazing!
So much fun to watch you 2 together thrifting! I smiled the whole time, 😆. ‘Do they spark joy?!”. My new question when shopping! Do more like this more more! Ive always wanted to do this sort if thing! Different countries diff shops! Thank you for allowing me to live vicariously through you!
