Japanese Harajuku Street Style fashion ideas
Harajuku is the common name for the area around Harajuku Station on the Yamanote Line in the Shibuya ward of Tokyo, Japan.
Every Sunday, young people dressed in a variety of styles including gothic lolita, visual kei, and decora, as well as cosplayers spend the day in Harajuku socializing. The fashion styles of these youths rarely conform to one particular style and are usually a mesh of many. Most young people gather on Jingu Bridge, which is a pedestrian bridge that connects Harajuku to the neighboring Meiji Shrine area.
Harajuku is also a fashion capital of the world, renowned for its unique street fashion. Harajuku street style is promoted in Japanese and international publications such as Kera, Tune, Gothic & Lolita Bible and Fruits. Many prominent designers and fashion ideas have sprung from Harajuku and incorporated themselves into other fashions throughout the world. (read more)

Leather Over-The-Knee Boot Spats
. . . and with the ties
{leather not as shiny in reality}
See this post for inspiration
Other possible closure options if you don't have a sewing machine {or even if you do}
* Velcro {stick on or hand stitch on}
* Elastic -this will work also if you don't have enough leather. {Use a solid piece in the back for a more fitted look or thin horizontal strips all the way down the back}
* Eyelets/Lace-up
* Hooks/Lace-up
* Buckles
* Chains
Wearing options
* Fold over the top and show the suede side.
* More ties or one long leather strip -criss-crossed all the way {like the Chloe's or Rodarte's} I actually would have preferred this but I only had enough leather left to make two for each side.
* With flats
* Over jeans/leggings
