Tropical thunder



In the concrete jungle called Tokyo, I'm sporting my new finds at the Zara sale along with my current favorites from zeroUV and Are You Am I. Don't underestimate those summer sales, man. 


東京というコンクリートのジャングルの中で、Zaraのセールで見つけたアイテムを着用。更に、最近毎日のように着回してるキャップとチョーカーは、それぞれzeroUVAre You Am Iからです。サマーセールは侮れないね。

OUTFIT | Minimalist sorcery


coat: Le Ciel Bleu; knit dress: Madewell; skirt: Zara;
shoes: Nike; scarf: Uniqlo; watch: Marc by Marc Jacobs









Photo-shooting with Nahoko, round 2. It was Monday, I didn't know what to wear on this chilly February day, so I threw together some of my favorite items at the moment. Sort of resembling a sorceress... not intentionally though. I almost wore my plaid scarf from Uniqlo until I realized it looked hideous with the rest of the outfit (what was I thinking?). Time and time again, I am always reminded that you can never go wrong with black.

I think I'm starting to build a minimalist wardrobe. I recently found an article about minimalism via Into Mind blog, and it thoroughly explained what minimalism is and how to get started on such a wardrobe. I wear the same key pieces over and over again, combining them with others so I don't get bored with myself. I would much rather spend extra money on an item I really like than have too many less expensive and poor quality items. I ended up getting rid of a huge chunk of my wardrobe recently, and I realized they were all pieces I just picked up on a whim. Bad habit. I also believe owning less items forces you to be creative when creating daily outfits. :)

Yet again, Nahoko did an amazing job. We went from location to location to yet another location on our short lunch break, which resulted in all these cool shots. When she saw my outfit, the first thing she said was, " I like it, you remind me of a sorceress." Awesome. 



月曜日の朝はいつもバタバタで、何を着よう?!と迷いながらも、何かしら気に入った格好に仕上がる。カメラマンの鈴木さんには、「魔女みたいだね。こういう格好好きだよ」と言ってくれました。キキとは遠くかけ離れてるけど、こういうダークな感じは私も好き。こういう寒い日はレーヤーで暖かく、スタイリッシュに。
