Some new closet items
Tuesday September 21, 2010
Finally a clothes haul post! :rainbowtwinkle: But I’m tired so it might be short *cringes* :down:
I was hoping to have more coordinate snaps to post with these, but honestly, if I’m not at work; I’m sleeping. I was at that work office retreat/training Mon & Tues last week then Saturday I was at a conference at 8am and didn’t get home till 6pm. :deadtired: But I did get out Friday night & Sunday! THANK GOD! :skipping: I’m finally not completely fatigued 24/7. I am, however, still unpacking & reorganizing. It’s gotten pretty cold suddenly so I’m putting away some summer clothes and pulling out fall items.
OK, so that’s basically a “life update” right there. Ha! :crap:
For the trip I wanted to do most my shopping while in Shibuya. But because I got sick so early on in my trip, :;_;: I only really did 1 day of strictly Shibuya shopping. :facepalmcry:
After getting sick I was fatigued for most the trip. :F Many days I’d be at a shop & just didn’t feel like trying things on or even shopping. :facecry: THEN I bought 4 pairs of shoes with 3 being boots!! :gigglewakuface: They took up 1 entire luggage on their own D:! :madmark: Well crap! :dizzy: So half way through I really had to think hard whether or not to buy something else due to lack of luggage space :ng: lol. Btw, I was maxed out on allowed luggage. :kanjicry: 1 check on, 1 personal item, and 2 checked bags. In the end I packed up 6 bags of “my stuff” loooool! Taking over 2 of Mike’s bags.
I digress!
So here’s my haul of W♥C, LDS, WEGO, Shimamura, Emoda, Uniqlo, Wonder Rocket, MarpleQ, Dazzlin, SBY, Love Girls Market, and so on~ :skipping:
Some snaps while on the trip~ Not too many~
Tank Top: Victoria’s Secret PINK
Shorts: W♥C
Backpack: W♥C
Flip Flops (lol comfort damnit!): Old Navy
I wish I could have bought more. :rubeyes:
Or, better yet, had felt like clothes shopping more :down: in the first place.
Sigh. :stressball: Oh well, couldn’t be helped. :rejected:
I was stuffed to max luggage capacity already. :madmark: But compared to my last trip this is WAY more! Last trip I bought 2 clothing items because I couldn’t fit into anything I tried on! :ackface: :supercry: :rubeyes: :;_;: This trip I fit into everything I tried on~~~ :fleetheart: Sorta feels like I completed a real goal for myself! Feels good~~ :twinklepink::rainbowtwinkle: :excitedyo: Like a sense of closure even :D. Yay~:girlrage: So I can move on from the disappointment of my last trip :okicon: :good:
That’s it I think… :grin: I really look forward to wearing some of the more winter items, like my fur hat I picked up and all my tights & leggings :rose1: :D

Hey hey, long time lurker, I just want to say I love your blog, you’re a huge inspiration!
-
HOLY CRUD!
You bought so much!
Loving all the outfits!
I felt bad about buying so much clothing when I was there – although I wish I had bought more shoes! -
OMG, so many great things. The outfits wow, and since I more of a shoe person I am so jealous of the shoes you got. Man I hope you got more news and photos of your trip because I got to agree with Dasha, you are a huge inspiration :-D
-
omg =3
so much amazingness in this post!!!
Glad to see your posts back!!! yaaaay -
Wow u did get a lot of stuff. Can’t wait to see u try everything out. I’m scared to go to Japan sometimes because I know I’ll not be fitting in anything!! sad face.
-
Hope this doesn’t sound too creepy to say that I’ve been waiting for this post XD
Too much awesomeness!!!
You sure bought a lot but all really good stuff!
I love the sweater with the leopard collar, the floral cardigan, the brown boots… Well I like a whole lot of things there! They’re just all so super cute! Especially all those hair accessories! -
Oh it makes me want to photograph all the crap I bought in Japan in one shot….but then I feel lazy! haha! You picked lots of cute items, and you found a Mikes popcorn shirt?! That’s so awesome XD
-
Nice! I really love the pastel tones like the lavender shoes and pink floral cardi – everyone has to pull out the dark tones for fall I wouldn’t want to put these things away! But I guess there aren’t like real fashion police who arrest you if you wear white after labor day lol- so on with the summer colors !!!
-
OMGGGG such cute outfits! and wow! that is a lot of cute clothes :D
-
First of all, LOVE your first outfit snap picture! Was that taken while you were in Tokoy or after you came back? Either way, love love love! And I see where your little fur tail comes from now…it’s a accessory piece from the distressed shorts you bought? :D
I see you bought quite a lot of leopard print stuff and I think I see a few Snoopy shirts too! (love Snoopy!) ;)
Aww Jenny, I must say I noticed something about you in this post of outfit snap photos is that your change of fashion style! I see that you’re going the more causal elegant style. I especially love the way you coordinate your accessories with your outfits. And in the last two photos you look so high class lady-like! You sort of remind me of Japanese actress Keiko Kitagawa in your last two photos because of the clothes you’re wearing and your hair. I think it’s amazing how you can pull off these looks because I certaintly cannot imagine myself in that style and look good in it. I think there are just certain looks & styles that you can and cannot pull off and it’s good that you know what works for you!
And lastly, I absolutely LOVEEEEE that room wear you bought. OMG, I have a thing for pastel colours and fur sweaters and as well as cute prints on jumper suits. I saw one on yesstyle back in the summer and almost wanted to get it! :)
-
YAY clothing post!! except it makes me want to go shopping nooooo hahaha
your shoes love love them! i have a pair of heels similar to those black ones. are yours comfortable? i usually end up with aching feet (mostly just the balls of my feet) after 4-5 hours :/
and how are those WC tutus?? i found some rip-off ones at one of the department stores around here but i dunno if i would acutally wear it! hmm….oh! and i don’t mean to be a creeper always doing this, but there’s this ‘Charlie Brown Cafe’ right in front of the main gate to my school. whenever i pass by it i think of you for a few seconds. all these random things in my head are connected to you b/c you’re the main person i know who likes them! ahaha
(lol i see that cute MIKEPOPCORN shirt in there~ how adorable!)
-
good finds
love that weird furry thing you have hanging :D -
Love the fox tail. I have a grey one but i want a stripe one too. My favorite outfit is the dazzlin one, it’s so boho chic! Love the hair ties. Is that a leopard print usamimi???? I can’t wait to see more pictures of your outfits.
-
I love your blog but I have to say…you are sooo skinny.
-
I looooove this post!!! I always enjoy seeing your coordinates because you piece things together faaaaar better than I do hahaha /looks up to you
LOVE LOVE LOVE your choice in .. everything! I’m especially particular to florals so I’m really happy right now … haha I want to go shoppinggggg~
-
wow your haul is sooo amazing! it really sucks that you were sick and couldn’t really do as much as you wanted to… being sick while abroad is one of the most torturous things. :( but your clothes look soooo great i’m dying of jealousy! and lucky lucky and good for you for being able to fit into everything you tried on! hope i can reach that goal as well. :) love your coordinates ahhh this post is love!
-
Amazing post! you make me miss summer already! :( the weather in Toronto has been so crappy! It’s been cold and rainy! :(
-
whoaaaaaa lots of clothes! I really like those W♥C shorts with this cute fluffy-puffy tail, that’s cute winter trend!!! And Jenny you are so skinny! Looks like a japanese girl, srsly :P
-
OMG totally LOVVEEEE ur Shimamura black boots!!
-
Wow! I love so many of your picks; you look really great in that outfit with the Emoda top. This makes me miss shopping in Japan so much although now with my weight gain (thanks BC!), I doubt I’ll fit into as many things. Besides, I could never really fit into the shoes so thankfully I never had to worry about stuffing those into my luggage. Too bad I wanted so many different pairs!!!
I’m glad you got some great buys and I can’t wait to see more coordinate posts. Hope you get over the fatigue/jet lag (?) soon!
-
I love the brown boots you got! Maaan, you’re so tiny Jenny! I’ll never fit into Japanese clothes if I need to be so tiny! D: lol
Such a bummer you got sick but at least it prevented you from buying more than you could fit in your luggage! Imagine the shipping price! D:
-
awesome haul Jenny!!!
i wish i had more money so i can buy the stuff that you bought there.
i really love your W♥C usamimi, the kankan hat and fur tail.and your hair looks gorgeous~!!! i really love your hair colour! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
-
Wow, that’s a huge haul!!
I’ll be shopping like mad when I go there (planning for about 2 years from now with my dearest mother~)! I’m seriously so picky on clothes but I feel like in Japan I’ll probably find clothes that fit me more (I’m half-Asian and tiny. Though perhaps a little broader in the hips etc than most Japanese haha). Perhaps it’s just more my style there?Oh god you look so great in that first coordination picture! (Minus the fur but that’s because I’m a total hippie anti-fur person haha) Don’t worry, I wore flip flops pretty much ALL summer. Hilarious, I took them with me in my bag when I went shopping in the lolita-fashion stores in Paris. I went in super pretty heels (for no reason haha) and gave up after like 5 hours because my feet would hurt too much. Lesson learned. XD
You have great fashion style, I always like your coordination and use them for inspiration sometimes~ hehe!
-
AMAZING HAUL, JENNY~~!! ♥♥
Aren’t the w♥c shorts amazing?? So comfy yet still so stylish! I love everything you got & your 3 code snaps are just… FABULOUSITY, haha! ♥
You look so awesome in the EMODA top + H&M pants code~ totally girly mode ♥ & I so want those boots, so if you ever get tired of them… haha ;D -
Woah, awesome new items! Everything is pretty~ ah the rilakkuma socks are adorable~ and the pringles ones are cool LOL
And your boots…..fsjfisrjgr I love your black ones! I really want to wear some similar ones but I’m just scared of the drastic height difference it’ll make…I’m really short and people are used to seeing me short so if I wear that it’ll just be weird D: -
That is a reeeeally cute hat!! And the clothes too, of course!~~ Makes me anxious to go to Japan next year! Argggh can’t wait!
Was September a good month to go? I heard it might still be sort of humid and hot but then it’s also the start of typhoon season. And are the majority clothes mostly a smaller fit (XS-S) Same with shoes?
Wooo what a haul!
-
Oh my, everything’s so pretty (◕㉨◕)
I loveeed the hat, so cute. -
aw omg nice haul~~super jealous~~i really like those lilac pumps!!
haha n i love the shopping bags too~~they look super duper cute~~ -
you look hecka anorexic lately. asian girls are naturally thin, it doesnt look right on you
-
So you think asian girls don’t look unhealthy when they’re that thin?
What a strange thing to say :/
-
-
Wow~ Awesome buys! ^^ I love the boots you bought :D
-
Wow, that’s a LOAD of new clohing and gets!! And look at that adorable fox tail, I wanna stroke it all day like pet XDDDD
-
I desperately want to go on vacation, and your trip posts aren’t helping ;A;
-
when i go to japan, i know i will spend tons of money on clothes. i think the only thing that will stop me from buying everything in sight is my body type! i’m wayyy curvier than asian girls. XD;
i know i’ll never be able to buy pants there! i’m like a 9-12 here in pants! i just have big hips ;_;
all your clothes look so cute!
if you don’t mind me asking, how much weight have you lost since your last trip to japan?
-
WOW you go so much – but it all looks fantastic and DEF stuff you can’t get here in boring North America (how’s that for a little justification?? hahahaha). LOVE LOVE LOVE the first coordinate so much!! and hahaha, diving straight into the foxtail trend i see ^_~ I with you on the W*C love!! I really want so much W*C stuff but it’s not sold here in Canada…..Well I think I saw a few fake tshirts before but it’s not the same and it felt like it was going to disintegrate in 5 seconds…… T_T Lovely W*C boots – slight western feel but not over the top – I like a lot! And the Shimamura booties – AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH.
-
woops I was bad and included the unprintable character. XD well anyway, those boots look simply fantaaaaaaaaaastic. I’ve seen either that pair or a really similar pair in quite a few magazines so wow!! ^_^ I tried on a similar looking pair in HK but it was rockhard and unwearable T_T. Can’t wait to see more coordinate photo/posts!!! ^_^
-
-
i absolutely love every single this you bought!! you look so wonderful in them~ i hope things get better for you soon.. :’( it must be hard working so much. of coarse, i wouldn’t know… heheh. the black boots look really cute.. O_O jenny’s so lucky!!!!!!!!! looking at your pictures and reading your stories make me want to fly to japan this very second!!! maybe in a decade.. XD until then, i can only dream of my future shopping spree~
-
My friend just bought a pair of those black boot/heel things! (LOL, sorry, I’m fashion-term illiterate…) She wears them almost everyday to school. Yes, sixteen/seventeen-year-olds wear heels to class… is that common in America?
-
YAY! thats a freaking awesome haul! :DD
and you got a tail too!! phil boguht me one while we were in tokyo last weekend~~ ♥
its so hard to resist shopping over here isnt it hehe -
wow gorgeous clothes. I think my favourites are the print tops :) Although that dazzlin’ top is totally gorgeous too :)
-
arghhhh *-* i want like all those clothes in those pictures!! LOL
-
don’t forget about jeggings…
btw I love that dazzlin top, reminds me of this free people one I have been lusting over. Is it past season?
-
FOX TAIL = DO WANT!
You got some great stuff, I love the boater hat! That Dazzlin’ top reminded me of a shirt I just saw in one of our chain stores, Glassons, yesterday. I’m contemplating purchasing it …. so tempted to blow the rest of my paycheck just on clothes LOL
-
I’m a longtime lurker too :D
I really love your blog and you inspire me to take fashion “risks” that I never would have tired before. ( like the yellow and glitter polish!)
I’ve always been very plain, tees and jeans only so you’ve really helped me! :D. even other kids at school have noticed!You said that you had a bad trip last time and that you couldn’t fit anything?
Oh my gosh! I’m worried now. I am going to Japan for a week at the end of the year and I’m heavier than you.
I was so looking forward to buying some clothes. :(
I looked through the archives but I didn’t see any specifics.
If I’m not being too nosey, how much did you weigh when you were there?
I am 5′1 also, but I weigh 130 LB.
Am I too big for the sizes there?Oh jenny, I’m so happy you had a good time! I can’t wait for more posts!
-
Lovely stuff!! It’s really a bummer you got sick, though… ↓↓And the luggage limits…↓
-
Wow! Look at all the cute looking stuffs!!
I love them all!
Especially, the roomwear, the SBY stuffs and the Dazzling top!!!!
How much does all those cost man? -
Cute finds!
I actually have the same LDS nautical print scarf I was wondering how you used it in your coordinates. ^^
-
hey hey! i love your hat! i really like that color! you know JELLY magazine? they have tons of coordinates there!
-
wowwee! nice haul! how are the prices like? and where else to shop for similar looking clothes? love the clothes and boots!! (:
-
Wow, well aren’t you the rude one. There’s nothing that says a person can’t wear a certain thing just because of their ethnicity – fashion is fashion and is meant to be enjoyed by everyone. Just because a trend started in Japan doesn’t mean caucasians can’t wear it. If everyone followed your logic, then only whites can wear clothing by prominent fashion houses such as Chanel, Versace, Burberry, YSL, etc since they weren’t made by Asian designers nor were their original target market asians. Yes, it’s definitely not as common and different to see non-asians wearing and enjoying asian fashion but hey, as long as you can pull it off. Asian fashion is fun and explorative ^_^ Don’t be such an idiotic racist troll.
PS
it’s “you’re” not “your”. Check your spelling and grammar first next time if you want your trolling to be taken seriously.
