Another Year in Tokyo

And sometimes elsewhere.

Quarantine in Style #2: White Shirt with Skirt, with Pants, or with Itself

May 24, 2020

See all its expressions in the color of sheer white.

Here, as promised, my excited self portrait with some new white shirts from Zara. Collar and collarless, linen and cotton, just-fit and oversized… so many options to explore. Too bad it is still under lockdown here in Tokyo, so all the photos are produced inside my apartment. Excuse the bed, the door, and the stand mirror!

Oversized shirt with skirt

I think this is completely a ZARA look. It is technically true, though, as both the shirt and the skirt are from my recent ZARA purchases and the floral skirt is really convenient to style up with.

Collar shirt to ease off some feminine accent from the skirt.

Or with pants, casual or a little bit suited up

Most of the days I am a pants person. I wear a lot of denims, and when it warms up, I like to wear wide pants that have an accent shape and suit pants that can show the body curve naturally.

I thought wide pants can be a challenge with oversized shirts; but it is actually quite nice. It can be called a “ゆるコーデ” in Japanese, which basically means “loosened up coordination” as a very common style here.

Ultimate conservative with collarless shirt.

I recently bought a pair of pants from Theory. I was lucky; it was on sale because of the lockdown, and I saw this one that has nice shape as Theory always does, and a dark yellow color which can be nice addition to my grey/navy usual suits from Theory.

Handsome look with collarless shirt.

As an single item of ultimate romance

When talking about items that are romantic, usually we think about long floral dresses, on a sunset beach, with a big hat perhaps. Actually I found withe shirts are quite a romantic single item, especially with oversized “boyfriend” style and basically any design if it is linen.

It can be a little too intimate, though. It has to be styled up with items that can bring out its character, such as a simple trench coat or a straight denim. Maybe I can try that combination sometimes.

White Shirt Mood of The Day

May 23, 2020

The most versatile, expressive, changing and yet the most constant, simple and mundane mood.

It was a moody Saturday, with changing shape of clouds and fading sunshine from time and time – perfect mood for some self -portrait photography experiment.

I have been having a serious crush on white shirt those days. It is such a versatile item, with its plain expression yet ever-changing shape of different fades and shadows to work perfectly in almost every setup. I prefer to think, it also has its own character; it is classic, and it brings in the depth and the contrast exactly the way you want to. You need nothing else 🙂

The ultimate conservative.
Or a few more colors with a different expression.
A little more intimate as a shirt dress.

I am bringing out a new series of how I style with basic white shirts recently… I love it, can’t wait to share here!
