grey and bright: Last Uni October Day

Last Day of October and I went by Chance shopping with my dear brother, 

who stopped by from his Uni place approx. 300 km away from our hometown.



It was fun going shopping with him and looking for some nice flannel shirts - he really likes that cloth. 

Wandering around the city, I noticed the everyday-look from my hometowns people. 


It's rather simple and practical than experimental or funny.


What do you think of the everyday-style in your neighborhood?

Stripe Shorts x2

And here we go for another stripe short outfit - spring is finally approaching. With temperatures around 20 degrees (according to the weather forecasts) and even more sun it enlightens one's soul. 

One post earlier I kind of declared my fascination for this freedom of choice we have in expressing ourselves with clothes, shoes and accessories. I am still wondering, when in the fashion world this time  started. 

Do you have any guesses?

Stripe Shorts x1

You may remember those stripe shorts from here. I thought of them with a lot of fun..

It may be my playful character, but I love to experiment and take seriousness out of outfits. Sure, I still like those elegant, clean chic styles. For me it is just amazing how easily we can adapt ourselves to one style and choose another direction in a few steps. 

Having no boundaries (but budget I guess) and being able to purchase almost everything, is one kind of freedom I am not about to give up. 

Pretty thankful for that revolutionary fashion empire unlike the e.g. 80s, as everything you could buy were a few type of pants, shirts and colours.

Spring Patterns meet Laziness

Spring is coming.

stripes surely like color

You may have realized, that I skipped a day.

Well.. yesterday was such a heavy storm in Tokyo I did not feel like going out, neither was there time for a spring outfit... But, patience was rewarded.

Today seemed to be one of these beautiful warm early spring days, with sun all over the place. Inspired me for something orange and b/w. Though I might have catch a cold after being surprised by heavy rain yesterday..

Stripes. Shorts.

Got these lovely shorts on a shopping day in Shibuya.


Thats the first outfit I am going to wear, as soon as I go clubbing this year. The materials are feverish light, which makes moving to appear, as if you wear nothing.

Color me GREEN

Oh my lord. That was so much fun. I simple adore colours. And above all, I adore green.

Though truth is, I kinda felt like Green Lantern, one of the several comic action heroes of DC Comics. He was definitely not my favourite one in childhood days. 

My heart beat other than well-known DC Comics hero Batman, for Marvel Comics, "Silver Surfer" (kind of an Anti-Hero tough) and "Iron Man". 




It surprisingly made me pretty happy seeing my favorite childhood heroes on screen nowadays.

See below for the color flash! 

Patterns more serious

Do you remember that top?

P-S-P: Playful Spring Purchase

I found something.
Something that made me chuckle when I tried in on in that shop in Harajuku.
That made me chuckle that much, i just had to have it. And here it goes.

What do you create with those?

You start playing and taking the seriousness of dressing up.
