Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers Spring into Summer as Sunshine Cuties

Winter is on it’s last leg! Sporting glowing tans and the perfect pedicured toes, Harajuku Lovers are ready to bloom into warm weather as Sunshine Cuties! With fresh new summer scents, Love, Lil’ Angel, Music, Baby, and G treat the beach as their own personal fashion playground and are ready for some fun in the sun! But as summer tans fade and leaves begin to fall, the limited edition Sunshine Cuties will be making their departure. Get them before they sail off into the sunset!

    Love: A fruity floral, Love mixes and matches a vintage inspired one piece with modern wrap around removable sunglasses. A red Hibiscus flower is the perfect accessory to keeping her ponytail in place. Buy it now!
    Lil’ Angel: A citrus vanilla, Lil’ Angel suits up in a teeny weeny navy blue bikini scattered with sweet yellow and white hearts (showing her love for the beach)! Never without her signature headband, she dresses it with a few fragrant Plumeria flowers to channel a tropical vibe. Buy it now!
    Music: A sensuous floral, Music keeps it nautical. Her navy and white striped bikini is trimmed in bright cherry red and accented with some sweet and playful bows. A red Hibiscus hair flower makes the perfect topper. Aye Aye, it’s super kawaii! Buy it now!
    Baby: A dewy floral, Baby is a quintessential girlie girl in a pink on pink polka dot bikini with ruched top and string bottom. A few Plumeria flowers nestled in her hair add the finishing touch to her super kawaii ensemble. Buy it now!
    G: A creamy musky, G wears a tuxedo bandeau bikini top and for a pop of color, turquoise boy short bottoms. Her sweet headband is adorned with a mix of tropical Plumeria flowers. This one is my absolute favorite one. If you like woodsy, natural scents, you’ll love this one. Buy it now!

Love and G are my two favorite scents and I can’t say enough good things about them! I mean perfume, is highly personal and what one person thinks smells great, someone else might hate. So keeping that in mind, I still think it would be near impossible for anyone to not like at least one of these perfumes.
