READ BETWEEN THE RED LINES

Fashion compels us patience from time to time.
Comfort for temperature. Bitter eyes of the others.
Definitely I don't care about being stared at, but the severe coldness
is what I cannot stand.
Every morning throughout the winter I ponder over the very same matters
''a padded coat or a woolen coat?''''a skirt or trousers?'' ''pumps or boots??''

When I was a teenager my mom always said like,
''You'd better wear more or you're gonna catch a cold!!''
Umm I still hear the voice.
But mom...I can't read your red lines no matter what age I become.

WITH A LITTLE SPARKLE

Now getting cold here in Tokyo.
Fighting this bitter coldness in winds, I wanted to add some energizing elements
by playing with a vibrant blue palette. (inside the house, of course!)

Once again I'm convinced of the versatility of fur vests. Comfy and glamourous, They also let me play with different textures and different shades.

INTRIGUE ME FROM THE BACK

Happy weekend, everyone!

Remember the generous promotion (25% off for all) of Shopbop about

a month ago??

Back then I bravely scooped on this adorable backpack that I aimed at

since Olivia Palermo sported it on a street shot.

To be honest I got the last one at Shopbop, yet there are a dozen of

breathtakingly lovely ones. So check the link below...!!

WINTER ESSENTIAL

With winter approaching, I appreciate the dropping temp. which
gives us more chances to wear fluffy items.
Among them fur vests are so versatile. On a hot day, I can wear
on a blouse or a sweater, and on a more colder day, put it on
a coat or a jacket to enjoy layering. Absolute to-go items, and such
practical items (are there any other things that you can wear on your coats??).

MY LATEST NAILS

Updated nail design inspired by Dada.
With a slight hint of the contemporary abstract art.
Hope you like it.

Have a lovely week, guys!!

DETACHA AGAIN!

Detachable collars have been a quirky accessory since Miu Miu put those in her show in 2010.
They are sort of retro, I remember I found them in Mom's wardrobe as I was little.

However the print of collar is jack russell terrier-- I have one named Jojo(!)--
So I just couldn't help grabbing it even after the trend seems to have disappeared.

PLAY NICE WITH BOLD STRIPES!

The bolder, the better. When it comes to stripe trend this winter.
With punchy colors, countless variation of width. Metallic stripes
should take it to the next level. My craving for stripes is here to stay long.

IT BAG!

I fell in a new romance with this man-like bag!

With fall comes a series of new bags, I think it's time to set some of my fave ones
aside for new comers.
I personally found this so intriguing as its simple yet remarkable design emits a sort of dandyism. A dark color and odd shape add drama and mystery to my look.
