PIZZZZAAAAA!!

PIZZA NEVER BETRAYS! PIZZA IS TRUE LOVE!! LOVE IT, WEAR IT!!

And of course there's no better PIZZA wear than one made by my favourite Harajuku brand of all time - Candy Stripper!! I was just tidying up my wardrobe and realised half my stuff are from there. They do pop designs and I wear them to work most of the time, even when my job is of a more "solemn" nature. Do check out their "CANDY BURGER" A/W collection! Yummy!

And oh. PIZZA = ADVENTURE TIME = WE'RE FWAHAHAHAHAH FINN & JAKE! Therefore, PIZZA x FINN JAKE DR MARTEN'S BOOTS!

These 1st season mathematical Adventure Time Castel boots (released/bought 2015) are different from what I have so far. They're of canvas and slightly lighter. Dr Marten's has recently released final series, and personally, Ice King is Nice King.

Remember those accessories from my previous post? Yep they back because they dynamic.

My comments for the items stay mostly:

[TOP] Bornprettystore's "Geometry Pearl" bracelet "- living up to the usability x cost performance of Bornprettystore's items, suitable for pop/mode as you have seen from this and the previous post. No complicated details required -  just 2 metal loops and a pearl. Perhaps let me be able to open a little more it when I put it on? Because now, it seems like people with wider wrists might need to wear it with a little struggle. Otherwise, this item is niiiiiice.

OKAAYYYYY going to grab some lunch now. Maybe PIZZA! The shirt makes me hungy!

TDL x BLACK

So one day I was hanging at Tokyo Disneyland. here

And I saw this awesome tee inside one of the Main Street's shop windows.

So cool ;b #disney #disneyland #disneyresort #tshirts #japanese #katakana #トーキョーディズニーランド なんかAUS思い出すわー(,,꒪꒫꒪,,) #ディズニー #ディズニーランド #ディズニーリゾート #Tシャツ #カタカナ

I thought to myself, I have to get it even if it takes to pawn my Moschino wallet on the spot (if it's going to worth anything).

And I got it. 

The colour of the month is #black. So is the rest of the year. 年中#黒 でいいや! #dontaskwhy #ootd #tokyodisneyland #tshirtwas2000yen #mickey #トーキョーディズニーランド 🗼

To my surprise, it was only slightly under 2,000yen, more value than a hotdog set sold at the every end of the Main Street!

And why I do I want to take any chance not to make an all black outfit just for this tee? Especially when I bought some more black items from a Singapore/overseas designers' market the week after.xx

Lace up skirt from eight slate - A little tight now (reached the market too late, so couldn't get an appropriate size) and I'm training to fit better into it. A good reason to exercise a little more.

Ultra-warm-yet-light MA-1 bomber jacket from AMOS ANANDA. Items from this brand all are unisex. The bomber jacket is really cute with the zip details and the row of stars on my left arm. It was nice to be able to meet the designer, Amos in person at the market! (Items are available offline at Naiise stores yo!)

 

Here are the accessories wrapping up the look:

[TOP] Bornprettystore's "Geometry Pearl" bracelet "(top) - living up to the usability x cost performance of Bornprettystore's items, suitable for pop/mode! Going to feature this in my upcoming pop attire by the way. No trashy details required -  just 2 metal loops and a pearl. Perhaps just a suggestion to improve this bracelet a little i.e. let me be able to open a little more it when I put it on? Because now, it seems like people with wider wrists might need to wear it with a little struggle Otherwise, this item is niiiiiice.

That dress I wore while in the bathtub.

Did you see my previous post on hanging out at Westin? Glad you did! (Please check it out if you haven't, here). Today's post is a continuation, a.k.a the outfit part - what I actually wore to my little adventure, or if you recall, sitting in the bathtub.

 

Just in case anything goes wrong, I used black heavily and also items from the same brand "Glad News" in today's featured look. GladNews' the brand I always went to while still in Mito, Ibaraki, Japan as it's the coolest brand in the whole prefecture. Its main shop's in Shibuya 109. It's so popular, its kick-ass items are usually sold out as soon as they're released. I'm fortunate to be able to get one of these barb wire print dresses they featured on their instagram. The leather jacket's also from Glad News. (Got it for 90% off three years back! Muaha! Click for another look in the same jacket.)

If you look careful enough, the barb wires are all made of  ☠ bones ☠. Horror-kawaii! ♥♥

Added on a pentagram harness to toughen the look up further. I never thought I could win it from Tealecoco...YAYSSSSSSSSS!♥ Yes, I just want to tell people that I am tough and you don't tell a tough person to do unnecessary work! Nah.

Wrapping up the look with a pair of UNIF Bound Creepers - my first pair of DHL-ed shoes. It's my first time ever to buy kicks from the US! Weeeee! On this note, sorry for the lack-of-shoes styles that I posted a little earlier on. How's my IKEA rattan chair though? (It was cheaper than the delivery fees! Damn!)

 

Notice the lack of neck/arm accessories. Didn't put on any not because I forgot; there was no necessity.

 

But seriously, less is more!

Autumn-Winter 2013 looks' long overdue post.

Heyyyaaaa all. The weekend is coming to an end. Again. Hope you had a great one like me!!

So at the end of this beautiful week, I would love to share a beautiful video that has been loooooonnnnnnng overdue, like, at least one Autumn/Winter season overdue and I am deeply sorry about this. This video was made by my friend Keit from Bulgaria, who has been the nicest and sweetest co-worker I ever had at my previous fashion company. She was one of the reasons who kept me going in a dreadful workplace. No life? CHECKED - which was why I had no opportunity to share the video until today. I think, one of those days I was slaving away with my mate Coba-chan at company when we received this super happy video from Keit! Couldn't say how excited we were!

Now to the superest awesomest video someone has ever made for me and my ex-team!! Keit's happy styles never go outdated, so the styles she kindly created for us a while ago still very much applies NOW! ♥ Thank you so so so much, Keit! Blagodaria!♥ (← Hope I didn't get it wrong!)

Life, however is not all miserable at the ex-company, because we had each other - the best team ever. Here's a peek of the fun we had in AW2013!

In other news, I finally had a chance to update my online store! You may click "SHOP MY CLOSET" on top or here to see what I have that you can buy! Trades are welcome as well, if not, very much desired. Shipping/Trading overseas!

Am already preparing for the next post right now, so keep coming back yo!♥

Sarpok Local Artists!

Received couple of hello mails and a collab invite in the last two weeks and almost cried. Like my leader at work always says "whoever talk to us are our ally". Therefore, thank you my dear allies♥  Please please please feel free to approach me for any writing/graphic design/fashion styling stuff.

(I'm no longer an employee of some Tokyo online store so I can't and don't, sponsor clothes for bloggers anymore, nor send me your styling photos for 2012/2013 collections. To make it a little more explicit,  "Now*Idon't*Style".) 

To the topic - SAPOK LOCAL ARTISTS! "Sapok" is the Singlish (colloquial English) equivalent of "Support". Today's piece was done up by my one of my kohai-s (junior) from my part-time-times, now talented local (Singaporean) independent designer/artist Sarah Thursday! Her designs are all so pretty I had a hard time choosing what I wanted to get! Click on her name above for FB or here to visit her at her online store. Ships Worldwide!

The piece I eventually chose from the sea of awesomeness was "Mortality", a collaboration with her local designer friend Ultra Violets. I like how the goldfish is swimming through the astronaut dude. All her stuff on sale are also printed in Singapore♥, so you don't have to worry about the quality. The tee is so comfortable and I've been wearing it, with a pencil skirt, to my office even on Mondays!

"HEYYY I thought you no longer work in fashion?!"

Anyway, this coordinate is good for your, what you call that, Coachella, Rochella  or Coachformelah or whatever upcoming Notformelah music festivals, which I don't care lah. It's good because you'd be able to hike through the mountains without tripping on long skirts. The only thing bad is you probably gonna end up donating to blood mosquitoes. Whatevs, charity! (Click here for another music festival coordinate from my Now*Ican*Style era.)

Ribbon from Joelle Gagnard and garter belt from Fig&Viper.

Sorry for not taking a proper photos with shoes, but I recommend this coordinate with a trusty pair of UNIFs (or other red/black/white/violet creepers). Don't attempt to hike in them, though.

Come back and visit me again soon!♥

LB'ded

You know who else's on LB's Instagram?

Nah. Look closer...

*tears flowing* and with like 8400-ish Likes currently. Too good for an idiot like me. Thank you LB!!

There were a couple of people commenting either on my photo at LB's insta, or under my nose at my insta, saying that someone else they know look like me. Nope, just nope. All "lookalike" claims have been scrutinised independently by MY MOM (and pops). Please talk to her if you're not convinced. In fact I don't even look like my mom. If you're going to insist I look like somebody please say it's Mika Nakashima.

Will not except others. Well...maybe only Eva Mendes at most, said my Filipino friend.

Please visit my lame LB page here http://lookbook.nu/tsucchi 
and DEFINITELY follow my awesome insta here http://instagram.com/inazuuma/

No longer in fashion, I am.

I am *GUESSING*, by now, most should already know I no longer work in a fashion company. I'm saying this because, until last month, I am still receiving emails asking to be "scouted" for free clothes or ootds of whatever-is-your-style. Hey no no no no no. Thank you. 

However if you're emailing that you are wishing to collaborate with me regarding graphic designs and styling (me wearing your clothes or me styling clothes for you), please, by all means, drop me a line!

Right now I'm employed at a place where you (say, mainly) get your cash counted, stored, and then counted again if you decide that you need to see them again. (See, this' why I told you not to email me about "HEY CHOOSE ME TO MODEL YOUR CLOTHES!") I'm not doing the actual counting. I'm also not the one seeking people to give us an opportunity to count their cash. This is probably why I've some freedom on my Monday-Friday fashion. If you're going to say, "hey I thought you said you no longer work in a fashion company?" Eh. shut up.

What you see on Mondays-Fridays will be a toned down version though, less the $5 Johnny Depp hat and the very elaborate dame choker by UNIF. Back lace tank top's from TOPSHOP six years ago and even alive! You see no lace because I'm not using a DSLR, sorry.

Sorry, had to.

Skirt's from quirky-kawaii ahcahcum-muchacha. Let you not guess, from Japan. If you clicked the link provided, you could tell that I probably wished I own a whole wardrobe of their stuff. Unfortunately, their prices are steep. This high waist skirt's a whopping $200!

Of course, to reiterate my current employment, presenting Richie Rich (Joyrich collab).

"Hey for the last time I thought you said you no longer work in a fashion company?"

To wrap up, again, please, stop mailing me your ootds or asking to be scouted. In any case,  if there's anyone who needs to be scouted, that person is me.

Just an in-house advert, scroll down or click here to view my Pikachu post featured on ZOZOTOWN!

Bummer.

Exactly, bummer. I'm supposed to be at work today but landed at the clinic instead, AGAIN. AND ON A MONDAY. AGAIN.

What I dread about a Monday clinic -
1. The queue is exceptionally long because we know that it's an open secret that at least 50% of Monday illnesses are feigned. Please, get the hell back to work and give those who are dying a chance to see the doctor! Fortunately there were two doctors on duty today so I didn't die while queuing.
2. No matter how legit my symptoms are, there is still a high chance I'll be associated with those morons in (1) the next day I return to work. HEY! STOP IT OKAY?

Talking about bummer, I do actually have a bummer t-shirt, and some might already noticed on my instagram posts.

 

The face on Pikachu will be the face I make tomorrow when I hear "I'm soooooo concerned. So if you are sick just go home!" loop for fifty times or "Oh, you are sick, really? HAHAHA" joke.

And so last week I received an email notification from ZOZO - a massive online shopping mall from Japan. They were going to feature me in the tee and the pants on Fig & Viper's product pages! "Certified by staff" apparently. More legit that Monday clinic goers I would say.  Boots are the ones featured on Dr. Marten's #ShareYourStyle app October entry.

Here's a screencap on ZOZOTOWN. You can find this photo here (Pikachu tee) and here (heart cut-out boys denim). I'm pretty sure I got all the good DNA from my mum and dad so I'm not sure why they cropped my face. (I'm hoping it's the problem with their layout.)

Here's the original photo with half of my face.

Was wearing the exact same thing on Saturday when I was approached by a slimming centre promoter who tried to pass me a flyer. I just gave it to her, like, "HELLO? I AM WEARING A CROPPED TOP? If I'm oversized, WHERE DO YOU THINK I GOT THE CONFIDENCE FROM?". Hey, I worked freakin' hard to put myself into these tiny jeans. If there were anybody else who needed a slimming treatment it's the promoter herself.

HPY NW YR!!

A little delayed Happy New Year to all!!

My mom was nice. On day two, the first working day of the year, she started my year by giving me a mysterious scolding. Didn't know what's that for and still don't know.

2014 ended on a very happy note. In mid-Nov I was informed that my entry won their October "Share Your Style" app thing! HOW WAS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE? "Overjoy" is an understatement. Like, waaaaaaay too happy. I mean, how many people on Earth has this chance? Perhaps 12 humans a year. Could be a little more. I swear all my luck in 2014 was used up in this and over-drafting a little into 2015's.

You guys probably seen the entry some time ago. (Recoloured version on the right side of this page!) BUT ANYWAY, YAYS!!

Docs in here are a pair of Pascal. Usually Docs are lined with yellow thread, but this thread used in these is white. Why I even bought this pair of Pascal is simple. BECAUSE MY LOVE (Tsuyoshi Domoto) WORE THESE, or rather something similar,  IN HIS DRAMA!! HOW CAN YOU NOT BUY WHEN YOUR FAVOURITE GUY WEARS THEM?

The screen cap is super blur, but you get it. By the way this drama is supposed to be a lousy parody of Ghostbusters. So lousy it's gooooooooooooooood. My white shoe laces are almost dying, so time to get a longer pair of laces like his! I just went to DM yesterday and totally forgot to buy anything. SHOKKU. AHO. BAKKKA.

The perk of being the month's selected human is, you get to choose a new pair of Docs. Tried my best to make it worthwhile:

And I think I made a right choice. Even one of the senior management at my workplace was digging them. This should be from the latest collection. Tattoo pattern never fails! ♥

*Wears Docs in tub*

PROFESSOR OAK: NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO USE THAT.

A very confused neogirl look.

This 2nd hand Snidel cropped top which was waaayy cropped than it appeared on the website, a "Japanese Rose" bikini set courtesy of touchmeswimwear at orchardgateway and a couple of pinup girl themed earrings from bornprettystore. I tried to piece up these latest items in my wardrobe to see if they ever work together.

The result? A very confused neogirl look. Actually I don't even know what I am doing but I hope the result is satisfactory. At least, this look works at the pool! AND I am very grateful that touchmeswimwear shared the look on their instagram account.

The bikini set was worn as inner and short-shorts - a specifically banned item at my school.  touchmeswimwear's sets are pretty versatile - you can wear them both on land and in water! Keep the short-shorts thing at home or inside your hotel room though! Unless you don't mind getting photographed by curious folks at the mall or stalked by weird old men. #truestory #ohnoididnt I mean I've seen people wearing short-shorts with exposed g-strings at the mall and they didn't mind the unwanted attention. Damn those hipsters. Literally hipsters.

Stole a photo from touchme to show you how it looks from behind - cute lace up design!❤

And this is how stupid I look at the hotel pool. Yes, I was wearing specs to correct my blindness, as well as allowing water to go into my eyes as I swim.

In case you're interested in the pinup earrings, these are bornprettystore's clearance items and are no longer available. However they update new stuff every week, so please hop over to their site to take a look! If you ever buy anything, remember to enter "LEET10" in the coupon section to get an additional 10% OFF on top of the free international shipping they are already offering.

In mid-Nov, I was contacted by Dr. Martens who picked me as their October's Share Your Style winner! I'll update about that in a bit! ❤❤
