Current Favorite Outfit

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009 | 56 Comments


My nails right now

The nail polish my friend sent has amazing staying power! And the glitter is so… vibrant! It’s the thickest gold polish I’ve ever had and every little flake catches the light. I’ve been quite memorized~ especially during mind-numbing things like meetings! Haahaa, just kidding of course.



I thought I’d post my current favorite outfit! I say it’s my favorite because it’s what I’ve been putting on after work nearly every day!

shirt - YesStyle [Puffy]
leggings - H&M
slippers - San-X
blue under-tank - Old Navy





It’s really comfy but still appropriate enough to wear out to the store for some last minute run to the store or post office~ Ah, and that’s my edamame in the background!



I was thinking of getting these shorts. Do you think this style with pockets showing would look OK with opaque black leggings/tights?

From The-Stylish shop @ yesstyle



Oh I wanted to share this ameba blog. It has a bunch of hairstyles and some with even video. Not sure if everyone’s seen it.

Also, some people were asking about hair buns. I saw this today and thought it might help some. It’s basically like any of these methods only you need to tease the hair in order to get a nice thick bun! Here’s the image.

Ooo~ super jealous about the amazing staying power of the nailpolish!

I love the big oversized shirt plus leggings look. Definitely understandable why you’d wear it like everyday haha~

I personally am in favor of the pockets-showing-shorts! They would look adorable with a pair of boots too I think~

Ooh, simple but great nail art. I miss doing my nails too. Too bad I don’t have time anymore. I usually go to Nail salon to clean my nails only. No nail arts or something.
I like the outfit and looks comfortable to wear. You can wear it for a quick shopping,.

Cute outift! Ah, you make it so hard for me not to go shopping but I’m still schooling and I don’t have a real job yet where I can spend away on clothes. =(

I think the shorts might work with black leggings. You can even match them with brown cowboy boots too. I think that would look really cute! =)

I love the nails; they’re super cute!!
Your outfit looks comfy ^3^

And I think those shorts would look good with tights :]

So hard to find nail polish that doesn’t come off easily! Actually the best brand I’ve used for that is Visee =)

The shorts are really cute!

cute outfit!! I love oversized tees! I’ve been wearing tees a lot lately . They’re comfy and cute at the same time. I’ve been thinking of getting those nerd glasses but I don’t think I can pull them off as cutely as you!

Get those shorts! Those are so cute with the pockets showing! I think it will match black tights too.

Thanks so much for the hair blog btw!^^

jenny said
July 9, 2009 @ 10:04 am

If it helps I don’t think I pull them off very well either! LOL. But I don’t care and wear them about town anyway \/

Thanks another bun tutorial!!
Those shorts are cute! I haven’t seen that trend around yet but there’s gotta be a start right? I hope something like that comes out in China soon
That nail polish looks so pretty! How did you get it on so well? I seem to have two left hands when it comes to nail polish :(

I love when my nails are all glammed up. It makes me feel accomplished & just plain happy. c:

My staple home outfit is an over-sized tank top with Roxy sleeping shorts. Or just underwear if no one is home.

I actually hate when the pockets show so I’m a bit biased about it looking good or not. :/

 
Leanne said

comfy outfits are the best esp. large tees and leggings!

i kind of like the shorts. but not certain how good they will look if you had items in the pockets though. they would look good without things in them.

jenny said
July 9, 2009 @ 10:16 am

Haahaa, that’s a thought that never occurred to me!! I don’t put things in my pockets these days though. Seems all women’s pockets have shrunk to an unusable size IMO.

Nails are lovely, outfit is lovely~ in a word, LOVELY! haha~

& omg I *LOVE* those shorts!! There was a pair like that from Siwy denim at Free People that I wanted but 138$… *stab* Those are perfect! & I think they would look great over opaque black tights/leggings~ I’ve actually seen that style a lot in early spring Japanese street snaps this year.

Thank you for the bun tutorial too~!

I’ve been trying to avoid Free People!! Haahaa, they keep getting in these key pieces I want so badly :O~~!

Aww you have a red version of my watering can! Do you find the water just gushes out the side when you first start tipping?

jenny said
July 9, 2009 @ 10:19 am

Hahaha yes, it’s poorly designed watering can!! Also if you leave it out during winter it freezes and crumbles, LOL. Mine USED to be yellow! Haahaa

That shirt is really cool, haha.

You know what hairstyle I can never get right? The braid headband (not the hippy-inspired one, but the one that goes over the top of your head). Either I don’t have enough hair or I’m just not a very good braider!

jenny said
July 9, 2009 @ 11:53 am

I fail at that too! I can only do the double braided entire hair look but not the braided headband. And forget any of the french-braid style ones! LOL. French braiding has always eluding me.

Wow, your edamame is so healthy looking! I heard you have to spray bean innoculant on them to get them to produce more beans. Do you do that?

The cut-off shorts question: I think anytime the pocket liner shows, it’s trashy. I dunno, maybe it’s just me. I have no problem with short-shorts, or cut-offs. But pocket liner is trashy. Slightly less trashy than thong underwear above low-rise jeans, gah….

jenny said
July 9, 2009 @ 12:28 pm

Haahahahaha Yea I used to feel that way as well. I think that’s why I’m on the fence about them.

I’ve read that too! But no, I haven’t done that. I didn’t modify their soil either which I read can help. Maybe I should but we’ll see~

s2 - I don’t know if jeans shorts could suits well with opaque black leggings, but I think It looks nice with black sheer tights ….maybe it works with opaque tights and cute shoes ^^.I really appreciate your website.(*≧▽≦)////
Your nails are so cute,too.

Your nails are so awesome! I wish I could grow my nails long and paint them but I can’t :( Because I play instruments. :(

Cute outfit too ~

I think those pants would look good with opaque leggings/tights

What gorgeous nail polish! Everytime I find sparkly nail polish it chips and fades within a matter of hours … I need a penpal to send me something like that!

And that’s an adorable outfit Love the edamame!

The nail polish is really cutee!
For the shorts, don’t wear them with leggings [I hate that] They would look much cuter and less you know, trying too hard to look fashionable if you wore them with tights/stockings.
What Job do you have? You always seem so tired when you get back!

jenny said
July 9, 2009 @ 9:34 pm

I’m a Web Developer. Full time job, 40 hour weeks & so on. But I’ve got multiple projects going on right now with a bunch of meetings and coding and whatnot, so it’s exhausting right now.

Your nails look cute x3
Eeeeee, that outfit looks super comfy to be wearing.
And for the shorts, YES. I’ve worn shorts with leggings,
and looks really cute. You should also try wearing
black shorts with black/white stripped leggings. that
always looks pretty cute (:

Hmmm, I’m not a fan of the pockets showing on shorts. Then again I don’t like the torn jeans look either. I can’t seem to post on your cell blog it keeps giving me an error message. :(

jenny said

Probably the “characters must be in full-width” one. I get that a lot but I just switch to Japanese input for full-width alphanumeric. In other words, IT’S OK & sorry! Just a bi-product of using a Japanese site.

That way of wearing (long tee & a pair of leggings) is very popular in Japan, too. Same in the U.S? I like the style.

But personally I doubt if the pockets showing way is OK, because I’ve just seen someone wearing like that the other day, and thought, “o.O, the pockets back fabric is off…”

But it depends. as fashion is free!

jenny said
July 12, 2009 @ 9:15 am

Yea I’ve seen it around in the US some too!

Your nails look so cute! Pink + gold is a great combination. I love the outfit as well, it looks really comfy.

 
Lexxii said

Very cute nails. The gold is amazing. I have some gold sparkly polish but it takes a gazillion coats. Very lovely.

That after work outfit seems very comfy. Baggy shirts =

Eh, I hate that style of shorts. The pockets sticking out at the bottom is kinda stupid looking. And those shorts don’t look that short, so the pocket peeking out seems out of place. Normally its slutty cause that style is usually really short. Eh… :/

I LOVE NAILPOLISH! i constantly change the color of my nails and my mom is worried casue acetone isnt good for you. I love it though haha its fun~
i like the pink/glitter color you have on~ its very cute ^__________^

the shorts i like, but not those shorts in particular…i like the bottoms folded up…and then the pockets sticking out a little bit…if that makes sense haha~

jenny said
July 12, 2009 @ 9:16 am

It makes perfect sense!

July 10, 2009 @ 4:47 pm

Whaaaaaat is that amazing brand of nail polish you got!? I love glitter~

I think those shorts would look good with opaque tights if they were a bit baggy or in a slightly bigger size. I’m not too fond of pockets showing but then your shorts are too tight so they… look weird. I don’t know how to explain it.

jenny said
July 12, 2009 @ 9:17 am

It’s ParaDo brand.

 
 
fleur said
July 10, 2009 @ 10:09 pm

i think the shorts will look better without tights. having said so, i’ve worn those oversized pocket shorts with big holes, fishnet stockings; paired with loose mickey mouse tshirt, oversized bag, & flats.

update us on how your decision go on the outfit!

ps: those nails are like godiva gold dipped, juicy strawberries!

I want pink nails like that too!I wish they sold more sparkly nail colors here…
I don’t really like the torn jeans pocket showing thing… but I saw a lot of it with stockings underneath in magazine before. I can’t remember which one (try JPN winter?)

 
Jing said
July 11, 2009 @ 5:22 am

That’s such an awesome color combination (referring to your nail polish). I rarely wear nail polish because I could never put it on neatly, thus getting frustrated Anyway, that’s an interesting way of wearing shorts (revealing the pockets). I would have never thought of it.

 
Amanda said
July 11, 2009 @ 9:06 am

Your nails are killer! How long did that take you?
Hm… i think the shorts would look cute, with or without tights.

jenny said
July 12, 2009 @ 9:19 am

About an hour. That included the first coat drying, then the tips drying, then top coat going on.

Oh I love that shirt! I really like the baggy style atm, too cute Hmm, personally I’m not a fan of the super short cut-offs but on some people it does really look good. So I guess it’s personal preference. If you like them I say go for it!

 
Midori said
July 13, 2009 @ 6:22 am

Jean shorts with black tights? Yes.
Jean shorts with black leggings? Please no, it’s just been so overdone the WRONG way that I think it turns off a lot of people.

Well that was just my opinion. I’m sure you’ll look great in whatever like always!
