Kansai Girl’s Style
Monday, Jul. 18, 2011 | 58 Comments
I recently clipped some inspo from a downloaded Kansai Girl’s Style magazine. Sometimes I wish my local magazine store would carry these types of magazines. Used Mix, Seda, PS~~ etc.
but at least scanned pages are already ripe for the clipping & adding to my iPhone (where I keep my most “current inspo.” ) These are very casual summer looks, sorta where my head is right now

I love this magazine! I discovered it when I went to Osaka last year, but of course, it’s difficult to buy something regional like that outside of Japan ;~;
Also, keeping inspirational photos on your iphone is a great idea! I must try that
Ah I know!!! It’s so hard to get smaller circulation magazines state-side. There are a few I sometimes check for on ebay, etc like 古着MIXガールズ :(
Ohh cute outfit, these magazines have a very nice style! Very Mori Girl! I love Mori Girl lifestyle!
Yeah it’s sorta a mixture of casual
scallop hem shorts - YOU WILL BE MINE!
I see them EVERYWHERE lately so hard to not buy. I told myself “enough shorts” for this summer though. *sigh.* Even MANGO had some with lace! All girly and sweet style
love the scallop shorts, wish i could rock that without giving my @$$ more attention…:/
Yeah I always see them in stores now but told myself no more shorts this year. A lot of them are super short aren’t they especially the lace ones t___t
I like that these are actually realistic and very attainable. nice picks!
Oh yeah, these are mostly street snaps plus just casual clothing. Very wearable
These coordinates are very cute, but I’d never wear or even try any of them. They look way too young and cute for me. I’m tall and look my age (mid 20s) so I think it’d just look weird… I like to look my age n____n'’
I understand, you gotta be comfortable in what you wear. However a lot of girls in this magazine are actually mid to late 20’s
Those are super cute! I wished my bookstore would have more magazines too but I did see Used Mix there yesterday when I went.
Did you get the new issue of Sweet yet? I really like the Uniqlo spread and the Snidel spread!! The gift is super cute as usual
Not yet, mine usually gets here on the 20th so a day or 2 more! I saw the gift though, looks quite useful! YES there’s a Snidel shoot!? GREAT!! \
/
The clothes are super cozy in that shoot! And there’s a really gorgeous shoot in Turkey too. I’m not a fan of their rock-inspired shoot though. There’s also a Rinka insert! And they also feature models and their personal styles/apartments. All in all, it’s a pretty good issue and gave me lots of ideas for fall.
I saw it at the bookstore so I should be getting mine today (same company
) I saw that there was a Rinka insert! DWRCYS I think?
Yay! Kansai! I love seeing Kansai pop up on the radar. I’ve never picked up an issue of Kansai Girl, but I might have to check it out one of these days
♥
I’m sure you could find some extra cheap at Book-Off. I think it’s just a quarterly magazine (???)
These are so cute & SO YOU, haha
Haha thanks~ yeah, I’m just lazing around mid-summer~ so. hot. out.
>:l it is really hard to find used mix. I forgot magazines range from $15-20 now. I wanted to buy that same marc jacobs tote, but it’s around 50-70. I think that’s a little high for me!
Yea with USD being so crappy low against the Yen imported magazines are $$$. I get my Used Mix delivered from a Fujisan.com subscription and it’s about that price range.
Was the canvas MJ tote in the snap really $50~$70?? I’m surprised, I’d figured it be more b/c his MBMJ shopper totes are already like $55.
on Amazon! and possibly ebay. I really want the MJ nylon bag though, doesn’t look as sturdy though!
Yeah it’s quite shapeless I think compared to other totes.
Very nice scans, you found so many inspirational photos in it!
Yup, this is always a good seasonal mag for summer!
This magazine looks cute! I’m from the DC area too–where do you usually go to buy Japanese magazines?
There’s a small market in Rockville on 355 called Maruichi. They carry Sweet, Vivi, More, Non-no, Seventeen, Glitter, and a few others. I can’t recall them all because I don’t really look for them ^^;; If you ever go there’s a great little cafe underneath called “Temari Cafe” where you can get ramen, omurice, snow cones, and more
Ohh, I used to work at Maruichi and Termari a few years ago haha. I didn’t know Maruichi started selling magazines! Definitely gotta go back now~ thanks for your reply
Yeah they took over magazine sales after Taiga closed.
The shoes, the scallop everything, and stripes. :( I want everything!
I want scallop… seeing them everywhere is torture but I really don’t need to buy more shorts *cries*
short hair in trend? luckily I got a short hair tooo LOL sadly my mom couldn’t bear with my orange color so she force me to dye black TT_TT
Dark short hair is lovely though too~ I’m growing mine out but it was REALLY short you know, so even after 4 months it’s still short hahaha xD
oh! I saw adorable scalloped shorts at Lily Pulitzer boutique a few weeks ago sooo cute. I may need to buy some white ones.
The white ones, especially when they have lace, are SO cute this summer!
Cute looks. I’ve never looked at this mag before. I think those looks really suit you
Thanks
!
very you indeed
Haha I know whats I likes
Oh I love all the stripes!! I know what I’m going to be wearing in fall!
I’ll be right there with you! Summer to fall to winter to spring xD I have so much already~~
Oooh jealous! I need to buy some!
Yea maybe I got over-prepared buying them for this summer xD
Awww such cute styles yet so simple!
xox
Definitely simple. It’s high summer here, gotta try & stay cool
love these styles! i love stripes but the horizontal stripes really make me look wider !!!! >__
I used to never wear them either because of that “effect.”
Scallop hem, marine style, socks with pumps/sandals~~ all LOVE
Perfect for hot hot hot summer
some cute looks here
thanks as always for sharing
b
No problem
loose and baggy and comfy looking, mmmm so summer-y i love it ^^ I really like when you share your inspo pics, it’s fun to see how you take these and make your own style with them!
thank you, thank you m.__.m I thought I’d be wearing black like winter but I’m definitely warming back up to colors now.
Hey, something that I was wondering about are types of Japanese foods, and meals, I really love Japan and would like to try some.
Uhhh, I dunno a 1-stop place to learn about that. My favorites are Okonomiyaki & sukiyaki. Google I guess? Or maybe this? http://omnomnomjapanesefood.tumblr.com/
These outfits are really cute, i’ve just been inspired
I’m glad
