  • Hi, I'm Kyoko Hasegawa.

  • Today, I'm going to show you what I wear in a week.

  • A sophisticated miniskirt look.

  • Since winter last year, I had many chances to put on miniskirts.

  • During winter, I could cover up with tights below.

  • I was wondering what shoes to put on during springtime.

  • I picked these pointed-toe heels as they are not too flashy.

  • Showing off my legs like this completes the look.

  • The good balance enhances how my legs look.

  • That's why I chose them.

  • I encourage adult women to put on miniskirts too and show their bare legs.

  • This skirt is by VALENTINO.

  • The skirt length should fit the person's body shape.

  • For me, if it's longer than this length,

  • it'd make it difficult for me to coordinate my outfit.

  • I'd prefer it to be below the knees or go all out and keep it short.

  • I'd choose a flared skirt rather than a tight one.

  • To tone down the sweet image of a miniskirt,

  • I love balancing the look by adjusting other areas or wearing a classy jacket.

  • This shirt is by JIL SANDER.

  • It's one of my favorites as its collar and size fit me well.

  • The jacket is by Off-White.

  • And this bag's by AMBUSH.

  • You can hold it like that or put your hand through it.

  • A very convenient clutch bag.

  • It's surprisingly roomy and I've been using it a lot.

  • It has a softer look as compared to wearing pants,

  • and it makes me feel girlish.

  • Next outfit.

  • This is my outfit for days I have meetings.

  • These are from my second collaboration with Whim Gazette.

  • It's an outfit of linen blouse and pants with suspenders attached to it.

  • I wanted to create this look very much for this season.

  • I love the retro American fashion where men wore suspenders

  • in the earlier days.

  • I thought about how I could make it look elegant on ladies

  • and came up with this.

  • These pants have a bigger cutting,

  • but you can make adjustments here.

  • I attached suspenders and made it high-waisted,

  • but you can take it away and loosen it so that it fits your waist.

  • A touch of feminity for women who are more manly.

  • I love this look.

  • These easy-to-wear heels are by Malone Souliers, a UK brand.

  • Matching a mannish outfit with an elegant pair of shoes.

  • As for accessories, this pearl ring is by TASAKI,

  • and this pearl choker is by Bijou de M.

  • Lately, there's been many occasions for me to wear pearls.

  • I wonder why.

  • When I wear casual clothes, I want to add some edge or class to it.

  • Pearls do a good job at that.

  • Even just a white T-shirt with pearls looks cool.

  • I realized again just how wonderful pearls are.

  • I get that I'm at the age where I need to accessorize around the face.

  • Let's move on.

  • Luxury streetwear style.

  • I love Rihanna's fashion style.

  • I think how she pulls off streetwear is impeccable.

  • I like to add a little of her essence to every outfit.

  • When I go for tea with friends or visit an acquaintance's exhibition.

  • Whenever I go out with friends,

  • I like to go with such casual and fun styles.

  • This top is from the T by Alexander Wang collection.

  • I bought it a few years back,

  • but I wasn't brave enough to show off my abdomen.

  • Finally decided to do it this year.

  • These pair of jeans is by alexander wang.

  • What's great about this is it looks like underwear is peeking out.

  • It's just fabric sewn on though.

  • It's high-waisted, so it protects and keeps my belly warm.

  • Just the right amount of skin bared.

  • As an adult, showing too much skin would be overdoing it.

  • So I think this is just nice.

  • This coat's from the Y's collection.

  • It's a slightly baggy long coat.

  • No matter the occasion, donning this on makes me look cool.

  • I love wearing it.

  • These accessories are from HERON PRESTON.

  • I like how they pack a punch and complement streetwear well.

  • For my bag, I choose this one from Burberry.

  • I can choose to use it as a crossbody bag

  • or just sling it on my shoulder.

  • I'm incredibly busy, so outfits that I can run in are vital to me.

  • In the coming season, the sunlight's going to get stronger.

  • Most of the time when I go out,

  • I'd put on sunglasses.

  • I didn't really get to do that in the past two years.

  • It'd be great if I get to wear them this year.

  • This is my idea of a multicolored outfit.

  • I love vivid colors and I enjoy mixing them.

  • Today's outfit's so bright that I feel like I'm seeing stars.

  • I try to pair it with various accessories and bags.

  • I use them to balance things out to give the edgy feel that I love.

  • This pink blouse is by Haider Ackermann.

  • Its crossover cut is very sexy.

  • Not only is this in hot pink, but it's glossy too.

  • I don't see this often in Japanese brands.

  • I love how all the components come together perfectly.

  • These are original green pants from ESTNATION.

  • I own many pairs of colored pants.

  • Green comes in many shades,

  • and I have a few pairs at home.

  • Just wearing a quality V-necked knit sweater over it makes me look chic.

  • It's my idea of Parisian style.

  • These heels are by Bottega Veneta.

  • The heel part is just so cute.

  • If I wear pointed-toe heels, it'd make me look too aggressive.

  • So I picked these adorable round-headed ones instead.

  • This is a CELINE clutch.

  • This ring is from MIO HARUTAKA,

  • and this one's by Gucci.

  • This long one's from TASAKI.

  • The shorter one is from Bijou de M.

  • Besides this one, I have two other bags in leopard print at home.

  • The combination of pink, green, and leopard print.

  • I love how they complement each other so uniquely.

  • I want to try to bring such bags out as much as I can.

  • This is my "mommy" look.

  • I have two kids.

  • The first day of school or class observations.

  • This is what I'd wear for such formal occasions.

  • This dress is by DUNCAN, a brand from New York.

  • Honestly, I didn't know about this brand.

  • Every season, I'd check out "matchesfashion.com" once or twice.

  • It's a UK-based fashion website.

  • I'd look through the site and pick up clothes I like.

  • The brand doesn't matter.

  • I'd buy it if it's cute, and I encounter many brands from there.

  • I thought these feathers at the side

  • would be overdoing it.

  • At first, I observed those around me to try to figure out what's acceptable.

  • I started out with rather conservative outfits.

  • But I feel that it's okay to have a little fun

  • and put this together today.

  • But I kept my accessories low-key.

  • I picked accessories that are not overly extravagant

  • and fun to look at.

  • This bag is my go-to classic bag for my kids' school events.

  • It's by Salvatore Ferragamo.

  • If I want to add a touch of my own style,

  • I have another option.

  • This is from Off-White.

  • You'd probably link this brand to streetwear,

  • but this bag is quite classy.

  • And it has an edge to it.

  • When I need to attend formal events,

  • this would be my go-to bag.

  • Next.

  • The sexy but not too sexy look.

  • The chest area's a little revealing and may appear too sexy.

  • Well, it's supposed to be just nice.

  • Speaking of the balance of an effortlessly sexy look.

  • Clothing from my brand, ESS by, has deep V cuts.

  • So it's rather revealing.

  • Donning an oversized jacket over it

  • is my definition of a comfortable sexy look.

  • I like wearing sexy body-hugging clothes as well.

  • But making it more mannish or casual is a balance that I am fond of.

  • These matching jacket and pants are by JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN.

  • I like to bring out the female in me by wearing such baggy jackets

  • and revealing a little skin on the inside.

  • I love this style.

  • So most of the jackets I own are all about this big.

  • I often drape the jacket over my shoulders

  • or wear it with the sleeves folded.

  • This is a mini bag by JW Anderson.

  • A bag this small is super cute and brings out my playful side.

  • It's perfect for a night outing.

  • This outfit is great on its own.

  • But I think I can make it more casual by changing the shoes.

  • Hmm... let me see.

  • Mules by AMBUSH.

  • These black mules make the look more casual and complete.

  • It gives it a stylish and cool image.

  • This is what I'd wear for parties.

  • This dress is from N21 (Numero Ventuno).

  • I bought this from "matchesfashion.com" two years ago.

  • Now that I think about it, I didn't even look properly

  • when I bought this grand dress online.

  • But it turned out great, and it fits.

  • These boots are from Louis Vuitton's spring-summer collection.

  • I wanted to create a contrast to this dainty dress with these.

  • When I go to a party, just this one piece will work.

  • But when I'm traveling, I'd want to wear something over it.

  • It's a very dressy piece

  • and kind of sweet-looking.

  • So I'm going to wear this biker jacket.

  • This is by Balenciaga.

  • I purchased it quite a while back.

  • I find wearing a pretty dress as it is a little embarrassing.

  • So I like to switch things up

  • and add a little spice.

  • This is how it looks.

  • To me, this formal outfit

  • is for when I'm invited to events at night and such.

  • But when the event's over and it's time to relax,

  • I'd change my bag.

  • It's a teddy bear bag by ETRO.

  • Playful to the max.

  • Changing to this bag is cute too.

  • A bear in ETRO's Paisley pattern?

  • It's unexpected.

  • That contrast just captures the heart of an adult woman.

  • At least it was so for me.

  • I absolutely adore it.

  • That was a week's worth of my outfits.

  • Thank you for watching till the end.

  • I hope it inspired you.

  • See you.

Hi, I'm Kyoko Hasegawa.
