Babyraids Japan Member Rikako Ōya’s #OOTD (March 2018)

22.March.2018 | FASHION / FEATURES

This article series features Rikako “Ricopin” Ōya from idol group Babyraids Japan introducing fashion styles in collaboration with popular fashion brands. For her second entry, she teamed up with Nadia Flores en el Corazon, a multi-brand stores in Harajuku that Ricopin can’t stop loving. Check out the cute, spring-evoking style she has put together below.

 

Controlling sweetness in co-ords with colours & textures

When thrown on, this blouse and beret screams ‘girly.’ The leather camisole one-piece shifts the look to arouse a ladylike mood. And by picking something coquettish and high cut, the style becomes trendy and in.

 

Springtime baby pink emits your radiance even more

This is a collectively pink one-tone co-ord. Combing sweet pink with a souvenir jacket, too, is the definition of cute. For shoes – high thigh boots, keeping good balance with the entire look.

 

 

Nonchalant colour employment neutralises any overbearing monotone-ness

A hard riders jacket displays decency, and when worn elegantly offers that lady taste. The classy details in the one-piece shirt such as the patch pockets and walnut buttons are girly, and the choice of black accessories offers a chic aura.

 

Ricopin’s Plain Clothes Check: clothes today are boyish

 “How did you all like this month’s looks? This time around I had my fill of Nadia Flores en el Corazon, a multi-brand store that has a way-too-cute selection of lovely items! All they have is cute items, so I of course recommend their stuff for girly girls, as well as those looking to remove that mannish style. In any case, the article focuses on girly looks, so I made my personal clothes today are boyish. The main piece is the remade shirt with pleated cuffs that I bought at Santa Monica. It’s a simple co-ord, so I used a beret and some sneakers for accent. Spring is getting warmer and the desire to shop is growing, which is fun, right? Alrighty, see you again. Bye-bye♪”

  • Babyraids Japan Member Rikako Ōya’s #OOTD (Feb. 2018)

    22.February.2018 | FASHION / FEATURES

    Rikako “Ricopin” Ōya from idol group Babyraids Japan is featured in some of today’s most popular brands in Japan. In this new regular article series by her, Ricopin models fashion styles inspired by herself. In this first entry, she introduces the Harajuku select shop (me) which she frequents even in her private time and showcases some co-ords that express femininity and blur the line between girl and woman.

     

    Creating a chic look with impressive clothing items

     

    The dark tones used in this look elicit a real lady-vibe. The jumper’s big print and python pencil skirt draw out an edgy cheekiness in their femininity, an impressive combination that, together with the chic tones, make for a harmonious fusion.

     

    Boa Graphic Sweater ¥3,740 (tax incl.) & Python Pencil Skirt ¥2,900 (tax incl.) are from (me) / Shoes are personal items.

     

    Sharply dressed in silhouette-altering items

    The key to dressing stylishly with items that transform your silhouette is all in the sizing. The off-shoulder bomber jacket has a short length to add a variation in the overall volume of the outfit. The thick lines on the velour tracksuit bottoms offer an air of elegance and hide your true size. This hairstyle is compact which raises the sharp impression of this co-ords.

     

    Shoulder Ribbon Blouse ¥2,975 (tax incl.) & Line Velour Pants ¥4,845 (tax incl.) are from (me) / Shoes are personal items.

     

    Looking cool with vivid colours

    The vivid orange excites a happy aura in this look. The glasses and harness belt seize a mischievous look and shift your co-ord into a cool style. For shoes, thigh-high boots, which balance the co-ord while turning up the sharp essence.

     

    High Neck Big Sweater ¥4,420 (tax incl.) & Denim Checkered Skirt ¥3,485 (tax incl.) are from (me) / Shoes, sunglasses & pierecing are personal items.

     

    Ricopin’s Plain Clothes Check: Design×Pattern Co-ordinate

    “Did you enjoy the first entry to this series? I hope to carry on introducing my latest fashion and brand interests to you. This time, I styled myself using items from the playful and cute (me). Recently, I’ve personally been crazy over one-tone co-ords. For example, today’s design×pattern look is collectively pink, so it’s not in-your-face. Using the high-neck in a layering style is also my favourite. I’m also showcasing a 1-cut co-ord so be sure to check it out. That’s all for now. Tune in again next month. Bye-bye♪”

  • MMN Festival 2018: Laforet Harajuku — Natsume Mito’s Self-Produced Picture Book Themed Fashion Show With Guest Models

    22.March.2018 | FASHION / FEATURES / FES / SPOT

    MOSHI MOSHI NIPPON FESTIVAL 2018 in SHIBUYA will take place in Harajuku and Shibuya on Saturday March 24th and Sunday March 25th. Model and artist Natsume Mito has produced her very own show titled Tobidase! Picture Book Show ~Storytime With Natsume Mito~  that she's set to showcase at  Laforet Museum Harajuku on March 24th.

    This marks the first fashion show Natsume Mito has produced and will be based on a book she has chosen: Bulldog Tantei to Kieta Hoshi by Tomonori Taniguchi (BUNKEIDO Co., LTD.)

     

    The story is as follows. The stars have disappeared from the sky. During this time, a letter arrives for the bulldog detective requesting he search for the lost stars. He accepts and heads out to find them. He's able to locate them, but why did they disappear, and who sent the letter…? This exciting story is full of heart and can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike.

    In an entirely experiment, the world of the book will be brought to life through fashion! Natsume Mito will read the book aloud and models will take to the stage to thrill the audience. The line-up features a string of fantastic models representing the aomoji-kei fashion culture: Yuri Suganuma, Ema Tanioku, Eri Tanioku, Aino Kuribayashi, Chie Tsuji, Abe Akari, Saki Shibata, Rinko Murata, Manaka Arai, Alice Ikeda, Una, Anna Kawamura, and more.

     

    Everything from the picture book to the model selection, casting and even the stage performance itself including the walking and lighting was thought up by Natsume Mito herself.

    The outfit styling has also been entirely done by Natsume Mito. She dropped by some of her favourite second-hand clothing stores to pick out clothes which she made into outfits for each model while thinking about the role casting and story of the picture book. She even remade some outfits herself to fit the image of the show!

    Finally, here's a message to everyone from Natsume Mito:

    I love picture books and I love fashion too so I and thought it'd be fun to create a fashion show that combined those two worlds, so I decided to create a picture book fashion show. The art in this book is cute and the story is really moving. I wanted to do a show that presented a sparkly world, so I chose this book.

     

    I did things like coordinate clothes, and I was super excited when thinking up the performance! This is my first time trying this, so there are still parts that I can't imagine how they'll turn out, but I'll work my hardest so that everybody who comes to watch will have smiles on their faces and get sucked into the world of the book. I want to create a stage performance so that people can come to be interested in picture books.

     

    I'm also thinking up content that everybody can enjoy, so please be sure to come by! I'm also posting videos of the show being prepared on Instagram stories, so please check if out if you'd like.

     

    Todibase! Picture Book Show ~Storytime With Natsume Mito~ will begin at 13:40 on Saturday March 24th at Laforet Museum Harajuku. Don't miss Natsume Mito's first challenge!

  • Using the camera app, “SNOW” you can create unique photos which look just like instant camera photos

    18.November.2017 | FASHION

    The camera app, SNOW is known for its cute and fun processing features. For fashion conscience girls, the creating of instant camera-like photos using SNOW is gaining popularity. Here, we will explain what kind of processes are possible with SNOW. First, start up SNOW and choose your selfie filter. Choose one of the camera icons from the icons enclosed in the red box. Next, choose the filter of your choice. For this example, we have chosen the Andriod version of SNOW.Try using the 3 filters enclosed in the blue box, starting from the one on the left. For an iPhone use the camera filter. Here is the first filter. It creates a faint-looking photo. The photo has a transient-feel to it. The second filter creates a more austere-feeling image. This filter is recommended for taking cool landscape photos. The last filter creates a photo where the center of the photo is clear and focused but the surroundings are a bit blurred. This makes for a retro-looking photo. Orange colors are highlighted so it is just right for taking café food items. For all filters the date appears automatically in the right corner of the photo so when you use a smartphone it is recommended that you take a photo with your smartphone on its side.   Another filter that is highly recommended is this one. Choose the “collage” icon from the icons enclosed in the red box. Next, choose the filter of your choice from the filters enclosed in the blue box. When you take a photo using this filter it looks similar to the frame of a film camera. It makes for a very unique photo, one you will want to upload on your SNS.   Better than having to carry a bulky film camera, why not just use SNOW to get a similar quality photo. If you get bored with the same style photos, why not try using SNOW and create film camera style photos.     Source:HARAJUKU KAWAII STYLE

  • Rikako Ōya’s #OOTD – The Latest Fashion Trends in Japan (January 2019)

    24.January.2019 | FASHION / FEATURES

    #OOTD is fashion-lover Rikako “Ricopin” Ōya’s featured series on MOSHI MOSHI NIPPON where she exhibits the latest fashion from Japan. This will be the final entry to the long-standing and popular series which has taken place over a year already!   Ricopin’s crowning glory theme is a favourite colour (or colours) of hers: rainbow. In the final outfit of the article in which she makes up a look with her favourite items on the month she incorporates red as the main colour, her absolute favourite colour.   90’s mix littered with juicy colours Ricopin stylishly layers yellow, orange and blue in this look which elicits a feeling of freshness and energy. Compact sizing of each item brings the entire outfit together instead of it looking too loud. The half zip sweatshirt and coach jacket gives us that 90’s mood.

    Aymmy in the batty girls: Boa Coach Jacket ¥24,000, Shaggy Neck Knitwear ¥13,000, Checkered Skirt ¥14,000 / Everything else is a personal item of the stylist

      playing daring with colours and a men’s-like balance Combining the street styles of an oversized denim jacket and striped pants gives fresh expression when the jacket is striped and the pants are a bright colour. The white accessories and details also help to bring the entire outfit together.  

    VOLCAN&APHRODITE Shibuya 109: Denim Jacket ¥25,000, Sunglasses ¥2,000 / Aymmy in the batty girls: Striped Knitwear ¥13,000, Striped Pants ¥17,000, Boa Waist Pouch ¥9,000 / T&P Shibuya 109: Sneakers ¥2,900 / Everything else is a personal item of the stylist

      open a lead with accented colours in a sporty look Ricopin went on a colourful adventure with the high neck cut and sewn, belt and hood which complement the black down jacket base. The purple pants are surprisingly not overly flashy so even if you add colours it never looks too much. Her shoes are thick-soled to give a nice balance in terms of volume.  

    VOLCAN&APHRODITE Shibuya 109: Down Jacket ¥9,800, Corduroy Pants ¥6,980, Belt ¥980 / Candy Stripper: High Neck Cut & Sewn ¥6,800 / T&P Shibuya 109: Sneakers ¥2,900 / Everything else is a personal item of the stylist

        <Ricopin’s Thoughts> “I’ve always liked colour coordination and colourful clothes. Even in my recent outfits I’ve just worn red. My hair is blonde so I wear red clothing I get told I look like [Japanese comedian] Kazlaser [laughs]. But in brightening up I’ve come to enjoy more standout colours than before. I also want to try out blue and green items this year! In winter I’m inclined to wear the same kind of outdoor wear and I tend to go with safe colours in my looks, but when I saw the clothes this time around I saw the light in how much you can play around with colours like this! Whether I’ll be popular in them is another thing entirely [laughs] but I love girls who wear colourful fashion. I feel wearing colours makes you feel more alive. The outfit I personally find to be the easiest to wear is the one with the black down jacket and yellow belt. Accessories add colour so you can change your impression easily, can’t you. My colour recommendation is without question red! Be sure to try colour coordinating yourselves this winter too♡”   Cooperating Stores VOLCAN&APHRODITE Shibuya 109 (03-3477-5072) / Aymmy in the batty girls (03-3470-0140) / Candy Stripper (03-5770-2201) / T&P Shibuya 109 (03-3477-5175)   Check out Ricopin’s own personal outfit! In this section, Style Leader Ricopin shows us what clothes she’s into right now. For her finale, she clads a winter colour look that is very her style. Her thing right now is an everyday style that combines casualness and cuteness.   Owning the sizing with red as the main player<Interview> “This time I used my favourite colour, red, as the main colour! The down jacket is from Little Sunny Bite. This size which is like it’s hugging you is cute and warm and surprisingly goes with anything you combine it with so I’m all about it this year. Generally you’d wear the jacket zipped up with jeans and sneakers but this time I wanted to open the jacket up so I tried balance the volume with white socks and ballet shoes. I see these shoes so much in fashion on the streets and think it’s cute♡ The sweater is striped and is my kind of colourful. I want to carry on challenging myself to more colourful fashion this winter!”   <Staff Comment> Thank you to all of you who have read this series over the past year. Ricopin’s style has refined with every article and she has shown growth. Her possibilities are endless! The series is coming to an end, but we want to have Ricopin appear in another project sometime in the future. We’ll be sure to keep you updated, so we ask for your continued support until then.
  • Rikako Ōya’s #OOTD – The Latest Fashion Trends in Japan (December 2018)

    27.December.2018 | FASHION / FEATURES

    #OOTD is a featured series here on MMN by fashion-lover Rikako “Ricopin” Ōya in which she showcases the latest fashion from Japan. This time she has picked out the perfect party style for this season and winter break where there are lots of events taking place. This dress-up style has that Ricopin taste to it, one that makes you stand tall while maintaining a uniqueness. Her final outfit in the list is made up of her favourite items of the month and is another dress-up style.   feeling like a lady with fur Ricopin creates a special ladies style simply by wrapping a a long-furred coat around a fitted one piece. Points of note are the belt tied up high and heels which give variation to the overall look.

    MARTE: Fur Coat ¥21000, Used One Piece ¥8,800, Pumps ¥9,000, Bag ¥8,300 Aymmy in the batty girls: Beret ¥9,000 / Everything else is a personal item of the stylist

      a touch of playfulness using individual motifs The balance between the classic party style look of a dress and fur coat which has a cat design on the dress and Furby design on the back of the coat creates even more of a playfulness. An air of sophistication is also made with the long fur coat and bag.

    Aymmy in the batty girls: Fur Coat ¥35,000, Pochette (Specimen) / Candy Stripper: One Piece ¥22,800 MARTE: Barrette ¥5,800 / T&P Shibuya 109: Long Fur Coat ¥1,900 /  Everything else is a personal item of the stylist

      a girly co-ord that brings out pop-ness using colour variations This outfit co-ord is fashionable without feeling overdressed and is perfect for getting together with the girls, going out to the theme park and so on. Points to highlight are the down jacket and the boa skirt. The yellow tights give an accent to the look♡

    Aymmy in the batty girls: Down Jacket ¥24,000, Boa Skirt ¥17,000 MARTE: Used Turtle Knit ¥5,300 / T&P Shibuya 109: Shoes ¥2,900 / Everything else is a personal item of the stylist

      <Ricopin's Thoughts> "I actually haven't been to many parties in my private time, so it felt really fresh dressing up like this and doing this shoot! The location was a hotel which was just too wonderful that I thought 'This needs to be on Instagram!' (laughs) I played with motifs and colours this time, but it was something different from what you'd wear on a regular date. It was party fashion, something to enjoy going all out and dressing up for getting together with stylist girls, so it was great. The mint fur coat feels grown up, and the cat one piece co-ord brings out a style that separates you from others. The down jacket is perfect for outdoor events. I wore colours and items that require courage too, things that would be born precisely because it's a party, so I definitely want people to try challenging themselves! This is the New Year season and winter vacation with lots of events, so be sure to enjoy wearing something different from what you're used to♡"   Cooperating Stores Aymmy in the batty girls (03-3470-0140) / Candy Stripper (03-5770-2201) / MARTE (03-3797-3123) T&P Shibuya 109 (03-3477-5175)     Check out Ricopin’s own personal outfit! In this section, Style Leader Ricopin shows us what clothes she’s into right now. This time she has created a special winter style that is girly but spicy.   feeling yourself combining rock and girly styles "I like the leather skirt so much that I wanted to buy it the moment I saw it. It's from NADIA in Harajuku. It's leather but has ribbons and mini flairs. It has a sweet and spicy vibe that's irresistible♡ I tried making a co-ord that you can head out with as is by combining the red frill skirt and leopard fur coat. It's winter so I want to look girly from time to time, but there's a rock [gal] in me I can't shake off easily that's left in (laughs). I dressed up in heels, but it will be cute in sneakers too, so I recommend this look!"

    #OOTD is a featured series here on MMN by fashion-lover Rikako “Ricopin” Ōya in which she showcases the latest fashion from Japan. The theme of her 10th entry is 'Trad Style' fused with school uniform elements. While these outfits are classy they are also nostalgic, calling back to older fashion, and are coordinated with that Ricopin taste. The final outfit in which she serves an outfit made up of her favourite items of the month has a slight air of retro-ness to it.   a bad trad serving a fresh style Everyone has that one bad guy in class. He is Ricopin's inspiration for this orthodox school look which she fashionably dons with a long T and baggy pants. The sleeve prints and typography on the belt give off an individualistically playful aura. Chicago Jingumae: Used Vest ¥3,900 / Ammy in the batty girls: Long T-Shirt ¥6,500, Checkered Pants ¥21,000, Belt ¥2,500, Beret ¥8,000*Everything else are the stylist’s personal items.   the magic of an honour student's colour coordination that keeps on wowing Ricopin takes the classic trad combo of tilden knitwear and a pleated skirt and spins her own twist on it by incorporating bright blue and leather. The yellow socks are a standout player in this overall chic getup. Chicago Jingumae: Used Knitwear ¥1,000 / Laforet Harajuku: High Neck Sweater ¥2,800 (F&A), Oxford Shoes ¥6,400 (F&A), Pleated Leather Skirt ¥8,400 (F.i.n.t) *Everything else are the stylist’s personal items.     an old-fashioned student outfit with a jumper skirt and stadium jumper Ricopin forges grace with the checkered jumper skirt and brown high neck knitwear and fur stadium jumper.

My usual outfits are really rough and loose, but this kind of tight look is precious and makes you hold your head high. Especially the first outfit. I actually want to try wearing that kind of boyish, casual style myself! The usual thing to do is wear a shirt under the fest, but the long T gives it that bad boy look. Plus it went with my hairstyle so I liked it. Although the combination of the pleated skirt and knitwear in the second outfit are the school items the mature look is super cute♡ I also personally like casually adding different colours here and there. The final outfit is a classic girly look. It's part of my image so it was easy to wear. Also, I'm really into brown right now. My nails are painted that colour so making the inner part of this look brown was a highlight of the outfit♪"   Cooperating Stores Jingumae Chicago (03-5414-5107) / Aymmy in the batty girls (03-3470-0140) / F.i.n.t Laforet Harajuku (03-5843-0395)   Check out Ricopin’s own personal outfit! In this section, Style Leader Ricopin shows us what clothes she’s into right now. This time around she's created an outfit entirely out of clothes from her favourite brand - Aymmy in the batty girls! Her look is centred around her most beloved item: overalls. my best co-ord, it was love at first sight   <Interview> "I love this overall so much I've probably posted it so many times on Instagram (laughs). This was actually my first overall I bought. The shape is beautiful and the legs look long, and combining it with the knitted jumper from the same brand makes it the ultimate cute♡ If you're not careful with overalls you end up looking childish, but having mature elements makes it wonderful, like the high waist design and ribbon on the back. It's easy to get the balance right and it'll go with any shoes, but when thinking about the knitwear and my own style I decided to go with platforms♡"

At the end of the article, Ricopin also delivers her favourite items this month with a personal style of her own.   bringing the spice with a fluffy boa Ricopin is donning a boa jumper―a classic material for outdoor wear―and the blue colour brings out that showiness even more.

It felt refreshing working on my personal style [below] because I did a lot of things I've never done before! And not just that - rather than changing the whole look I mixed different styles which is fun, isn't it? It changes your image in a good way. For example, the first outfit with the boa parker. The balance is easy to replicate but the leopard print is very much now. I like it so much I want to add it to my own wardrobe. Wearing a hood is warm too. It's a balance I want everyone else to try too♡. The third outfit with the stripes and jumper skirt felt like something new, and I'm glad I wore an aviator cap, they're all the rage this year! The concept of combining a mini one piece and waffle leggings in the third style is super cute.

I'm all about that 90's kogyaru balance right now, but it's something I've never done before, so when I thought about what I should wear, I came across this X-girl one piece. The length matches with the boots' perfectly, and the logo has a mature colour tone that is cute. The waist squeezes, and it also has pockets. I'm a fanatic for it even just wearing it on its own. It's too wonderful a thing! (laughs) I'm doing autumn this time , so I tried to make it autumn-y and chic by combining with a black hat."     Writer Stylist: Manami Ishii Photographer: Asami Nobuoka Translator: Joshua Kitosi-Isanga
  • Rikako Ōya’s #OOTD (September 2018)

    27.September.2018 | FASHION / FEATURES

    Rikako “Ricopin” is a Japanese model and this is her featured article series in which she delivers the latest fashion from Japan.   For her 8th entry to the series, Ricopin is serving us a "Neo-Punk Mix" theme. The style incorporates elements of hardcore punk while lacing it with the kind of street and girly vibes that are in today―Ricopin style. She's also joined once more by Yuri Suganuma again this month in her personal co-ord section.   Street Mix means playing with colours & designs The t-shirt and knitted fabric pants have that 90s street style vibe to them. Nonchalantly added to that is checkered outerwear and a pair of boots which act as her punk components. By daring to add these colours it creates a unique, one-step-ahead of the pack punk style.   KAWI JAMELE (LTN Showrooms): T-Shirt ¥2,800, Knitted Pants ¥11,800, Knitted Beret ¥2,800, Boots ¥13,800*Everything else are items from the stylist.     An orthodox punk look with leather and a checkered pattern The leather jacket and checkered skirt alone give that "hard" look - they're an indispensable combination in punk. The bright red t-shirt adds a change to the look while the long length of the skirt adds the kind of silhouette that's in right now.   Aymmy in the batty girls: T-Shirt ¥7,500, Checkered Long Skirt ¥22,000*Everything else are items from the stylist.   Serving spicy sweetness with a rockabilly mix This style combines a glittery top with a circular skirt that falls gently. These girly monotone items serve a 50s rockabilly style while the redness of the hat give a punk element.   Aymmy in the batty girls: Beret ¥8,000, Skirt ¥14,000 / KAWI JAMELE (LTN Showroom): Shoes ¥12,800*Everything else are items from the stylist.   <Ricopin's Thoughts>"I've loved that hard style since long ago. During middle school I was crazy on black co-ords, and before that I wore a lot of leather accessories. But this time I did things like combining a jacket with a deep blue checkered pattern, and added more colours to the co-ords. Even thought it was in the 'hard' realm I really felt a newness! The purple and orange combination in the first co-ord is also my theme colour for this year. I also added purple lipstick to match. Just wearing that really brings out your face. It makes you look stylish so I recommend it. The styling of the third co-ord with the checkered skirt is my favourite! The glitter material and skirt seem girly but they're also cool. It seems easy to look flashy by just adding small accessories. The truth is whenever I go shopping after doing these shoots [for this article series] I'm learning while remembering how I combined things. Up to now I've done a lot of styles that are more bright and cheerful so for autumn and winter I sure want to go for something chic and cool!"   Cooperating Stores LTN Showroom (KAWI JAMELE) (03-6690-8776), Aymmy in the batty girls  (03-3470-0140)   In this section, Style Leader Ricopin shows us what clothes she’s into right now. This month she's joined again by Yuri Suganuma, a model who Ricopin has much respect and affection for.   Serving autumn with colours that are more chic than usual<Ricopin Interview>"I haven't owned a lot of autumn browns and smoky colours up to now, but recently I've been wearing beige Chinos, and I like incorporating pink beige like today, so I've started collecting them. They are mellow colours but have their standout traits. I'm losing my strength to them they're so easy to get by with (laughs). For example although t-shirts are standard simply changing the colour makes it autumn-like and changes the entire feel. That's what I'm showing. I combined it with black but short pants and sandals aren't too heavy and look good for the turning point of the seasons. It was a very fun photo shoot♡"   <Yuri Suganuma Interview>"The first thing that popped into my head for this autumn coloured shoot was the colour orange. The orange skirt and orange logo on the t-shirt gives a sense of uniformity.The skirt and boots are also leather. Heavy material like that brings out the seasonal vibes. Incidentally, when I came up with this outfit, I realised the colours felt Halloween-y and thought 'this really is an autumn outfit!' (laughs) And Ricopin combined beige with black so we look like twins which I'm glad about!"
  • Babyraids Japan Member Rikako Ōya’s #OOTD (August 2018)

    23.August.2018 | FASHION / FEATURES

    Rikako “Ricopin” Oya is the leader of style in Babyraids Japan, a five-member idol unit. This is her featured article series in which she delivers the latest fashion from Japan.   The theme for the 7th entry to this series is 'Vintage Style,' where Ricopin is combining second hand clothing, classic items and more to give us a more mature version of herself than usual. She's also joined by Yuri Suganuma this month in her personal co-ord section.   Layered one piece heightens gorgeousness Ricopin has layered a vintage floral one piece with a chic velour one piece. Adding a floral design brings out the true colour of the main single tone one piece.   Aymmy in the batty girls: Velour One Piece ¥25,000 / MARTE: Vintage Floral One Piece ¥12,000*Everything else are personal items.     A vintage dress for a special occasion This bold and confident one piece screams vintage design. Adding the low tone bag and pumps together with the belt eliminates any sense of childlikeness to bring out the inner lady.   MARTE: One Piece ¥13,000, Pumps ¥12,000, Original Earrings ¥6,800 / Fi.n.t Laforet Harajuku: Bag ¥9,200 (an another angelus)*Everything else are personal items.     Matching Set + Scarf = Best Combo This sophisticated Glen checkered matching outfit is the kind of thing you imagine being worn at the cinema in the olden days. The vintage scarf around her neck serves that classic mood. The red socks and black shoes also add a freshness.   Fi.n.t Laforet Harajuku (an another angelus): Checkered Jacket ¥9,400, Glen Checkered Skirt ¥7,800   Ricopin's ThoughtsI normally wear colourful and casual outfits, so challenging myself to a classical and mature style felt really fresh! It felt like an adventure for me, but even the staff said "It suits you!" so clothes like this will be nice for autumn too♡ Out of them all I really liked the checkered set, so much that I want to add them to my wardrobe. You can co-ordinate them separately too. They seem easy to pull off. The theme was vintage so I wore second hand clothes too, but I felt a bit of contrivance even with the one piece. Combining the pink one piece with green pumps really suited my tastes! I often go to second hand stores in my own time, so I want to try looking for some more beautiful vintage items. This was a really fun photo shoot, I felt like I became the star of a movie.   Cooperating Stores MARTE  (03-3797-3123), Fi.n.t Laforet Harajuku (03-5843-0395), Aymmy in the batty girls (03-3470-0140)     Check out Ricopin’s own personal style! In this section, Style Leader Ricopin shows us what clothes she's into right now. This month she's joined by model Yuri Suganuma in a dream collaboration. Their theme is 'Vivid Colour.' They did all the styling themselves.   Going on a date with Yuri Suganuma in vivid coloured co-ords♡   Rikako Ōya Interview"It was a dream photoshoot to have Yurippa as a guest. I've loved her for a long time and have always sent her love calls♡ I see Yurippa as someone who wears vivid colours, so I decided to make that the theme. After being lost on what colours to pick for the outfit I set my eyes on getting entire outfit that was vivid and under ¥10,000! The white denim was from GU so it was around ¥2,400, the top was jouetie so around ¥3,000, and the shoes were given to me, so this was a super cheap co-ord. The colours aren't too in-your-face. I also added red, my favourite colour. Yurippa uses white as a base colour from time to time too, so I'm glad we were able to link together nicely."   Yuri Suganuma Interview"When you say 'vivid co-ord' it has the impression that it's flashy and difficult to get the colours right, but this time I was particiular with layering a long t-shirt with colourful bottoms that peek out. By doing that the colours aren't over-emphasised. It adds an accent that looks cute! This long t-shirt is also a collaboration with STRIPE CLUB. It's something I designed, but one thing to point out is the neck colour from the ringer t-shirt which is the base. And so that it doesn't look plain I balanced the outfit with straps. This is the second time I have met with Ricopin, but I'm so happy that she called me for this shoot! We got excited about a show we're watching, so I want more time to talk with her again."
