Inspiration Thursday!


Tokyo Incoming: Wardrobe Planning...

If money is no problem, and items readily available... What would I wear on my upcoming 'virgin' trip to Tokyo? Land of the rising sun is mecca to radical fashion fanatics. Should I go all the way? Probably not. I cannot pull off or have the guts to mix and match in the most odd of manners like the Jap guys.

But I would be happy to try what I have sketched today:-P Ah... Some Balmain military cool. A lightweight Céline Cabas, some easy walking 'cut-out' shoes from Jil Sander, slouchy ribbed T-shirt with amazing braided detail from Mihara Yasuhiro. And a nice pair of Khaki pants to round off the look. (Okay maybe this outfit is not winter proof... but imagination knows no weather patterns. :-P should make me stand out while not shouting out?!?!:-P)

Oh lastly, I want to keep my hair longer with asymmetric fringe, Manga style, here I come! Need to blend in with my destination:-P

(See my other sketch here:-P)

Amazing sketch again, Kev! I'm excited for your maiden trip to Japan! I hope work doesn't f*ck up my booked trip to Tokyo in February. *crosses fingers

You sketched that? Really Kevin, you should do posts like these more often. Love it!

Yes I did, Alvin:-)

and thanks Mark:-P Hope you can go to Japan as planned. Sucks when work hinders the travel plans.

Good luck!

Will try to do more of these sketches for sure:-)

I know for sure that no "odd of manners" exists in Tokyo. They tend to be dramatically dressed all the time. So be bold and try something fun! Again, great sketch!
