While on a shopping trip around town with Janet from 102M, I bought my first Issey Miyake. It’s so sculptural I immediately fell in love. And the best part…it never ever wrinkles. This is why Issey Miyake is the go-to getup for Korean moms on long flights. I’m slowly getting there. This will be one of many more IM Pleats Please pieces I hope to collect in the future. I’m now in the hunt for that perfect IM ecru pleated top, preferably turtle-neck. I wore this outfit to a Hudson Jeans preview which I will be sharing photos from later this week. I didn’t at the end walk out with the silver cuff which I regret. At the time I thought it was too obnoxious. But I changed my mind and in the coming summer I can tell that I will be living in this cuff. Freshens up all my basic outfits instantly. BTW don’t I look like I could kick some ass in the picture without the coat? Obviously nothing to do with working out but rather born with wide shoulders. Some might say I look athletic…ha! Not…

    OOO!!! I wish I could have a Pleats Please pice.
    Once, walking arround barcelona (where i live) i got into a vintage store and I saw a vintage IS pleated blue dress patterned with comic stuff (sure a collaboration with an artist), i almost died but to it was much expensive for my pocket.

    Wow, those pants are great and the metallic built – is it built in – is the perfect touch.

    Sorry I mean to say the metallic built-in BELT is the perfect touch.. My comment was nonsensical!
