Why so serious? I don't get to wear them often but I'm really loving these kimono cardigans from House of Nippon , which come in a variety of prints that it feels like I can never have enough. They're very fashionable and perfect for lightweight layering. This time we go brown and with a stiffer fabric so the sleeves stay in form. This one's also a little long for that extra swag as you saunter your way around town. In direct contrast to all this stiffness, I wore some loose-fitting trousers that are a little high-waisted and ankle-length . Not that I had had enough of fitted pants but let's just say we also need to expand our horizon a bit, try something we're not accustomed to.

Depressed egg but happy me! I have long been pining for a Gudetama t-shirt , jealous that Kwittiegirl can simply pick at liberty any design from Uniqlo. Yes, that depressed egg of a Sanrio character has beguiled me with its kawaii, and it frustrates me that Uniqlo only has it in female tees. But as luck would have it, The SM Store now has Gudetama t-shirts. For guys! To be honest, the quality is not as great as Uniqlo's--the fabric, print, fit--buy hey, for only Php 350, I think I'm good. With much glee I can easily pair it with jeans or shorts. Ha!

One of the pieces I copped at last month's  Uniqlo Manila flagship store opening was this t-shirt with a Japanese scenery print with the famous Mt Fuji in view. I haven't given much thought about it other than it's a nice design. Apparently it's part of the Hokusai Blue Uniqlo UT collection , which is rooted in some interesting history so to speak. From the brand's website:

Casual and summery. Too casual even. It starts with the oversize Cuban shirt --clean but not crisp. Instead, it's relaxed and flowy. Then the cornflower blue ankle pants , with a rather roomy fit but not as boxy as the top.
