I came to Australia for my holiday/rest and it's lifted my spirit. I'm so glad that I chose to spend winter away from Japan because I know it would have made my state of mind, and my mood a lot worse. Being in a hot/warm climate, being with friends and family has really improved my health and sanity! In consequence though, I had to leave my son in Japan (with his father), which has been very difficult for me, but more so for him. However, the time has flown by so quickly (2mnths have gone by already), and I will see him again next week!!Yey! I am happy to have my little family together again, and somewhat glad to have a little support back. My stay hasn't been completely stress free, the situation with my parents have been quite frustrating, so I am looking forward to their arrival. Although, their arrival will mark my final month here in Australia then back home to Japan again, and to be honest, I am not looking forward to going back. Australia is my home, and if there was a way to stay here permanently I would in a heart beat, unfortunately it's not possible at this present. I'll just have to be patient and put my trust in God, and wait out the time. I will cherish the memory of having spent 3mnths here with my baby girl, she has grown and learnt so much which has amazed and amused me endlessly. I have purchased so many cute clothes for her-LOL. It's so much more exciting (cuter), than buying boys clothes!! As for me,I haven't bought so much since I've been back here- 2 pairs of shoes, some items of clothing, and some good finds from the op shop. I always try to document my purchases so here are some, (the rest I will do in Japan, when I feel motivated :P)<br />

It's been a while since I've done an 'on rotation' post. Today, I had the time, patience, and motivation to compile one partly because of the weather being pleasant, and inspiring me to be more "creative" when it comes to putting an attire together. Also, my phone broke so I replaced it with an iphone5, and I thought what better time to try the camera with an 'on rotation' post. Unfortunately, not very happy with the result. I'm not sure if it's because of my shaky hand, the lighting or just the camera in general. I'll keep trying. Hopefully it's just me, not the camera. I'ts so much easier to use than the DSLR.

I find myself having less and less time to consider what to wear when I go out, and because of this I have become unmotivated when it comes to creating an outfit, which consequently makes me feel lazy and lazier about dressing. In addition, I have found myself wanting to purchase more and more (fast fashion and thrifted) clothing because of the annoying-nagging feeling I have of "having nothing to wear", which I know to be contrary. I don't want to have this feeling of wanting more because I "have nothing to wear", I want to utilise all the contents in my wardrobe, and minimise/quench my need to buy something and waste money on something I deem redundant in the future. I want to save what I spend on fast fashion on something that I trully appreciate and will last me a long time. Thanks to Annuchka from<a href="http://into-mind.com/" target="_blank"> intomind</a>, and her posts on wardrobe building/structure I was able to curate and organise my wardrobe using her methods, and now I feel satisfied that I will be able to utilise and be more appreciative of the current contents in my wardrobe, minus the nagging feeling of having nothing to wear, or the need to purchase in order to feel an imaginative gap.<br />
<br />
Here are the steps that I used from intomind to build and define my style for the current and upcoming season. I was able to achieve this by reading her posts on: <a href="http://into-mind.com/2013/09/24/colour-analysis-part-i-finding-your-type/" target="_blank">Colour analysis part 1: finding your type</a>, <a href="http://into-mind.com/2012/12/20/building-a-capsule-wardrobe-101/" target="_blank">Building a capsule wardrobe 101</a>, <a href="http://into-mind.com/2013/04/22/method-dressing/" target="_blank">Method dressing</a>, and <a href="http://into-mind.com/2013/08/17/building-a-wardrobe-of-basics-and-statement-pieces/" target="_blank">Building a wardrobe of basic and statement pieces</a>.<br />
<br />
For the upcoming season I concluded that the following factors are what I need to consider when creating my own style, or curating an outfit.<br />
<i>Colours: </i>Deep, cool tones from the colour me beautiful theory based on the colours from the four seasons (<a href="http://in-dubitably.blogspot.jp/2013/09/wardrobe-building-colour-palette.html" target="_blank">previous post</a>).<br />
<i>Concept:</i> Simple, minimal, edgy, layered, slightly masculine<br />
<i>Uniform/Signature look:</i> shirts, tops, light knits, blazers/Jackets, leather jacket, skinny jeans/pants, brogues, ankle boots (Adding up to 20-30 pieces)<br />
<br />
<i><b>Defining my personal style</b></i><br />
Cull items that do not fit into the following approach<br />
<i>Modular approach: </i><br />
<i>- </i>Curate items of clothing that have similar style<br />
- Every top should go with every bottom<br />
- Consistent colour scheme in each wardrobe category<br />
- Harmonious shades, textures and patterns (etc.)<br />
<i>Uniform approach (signature look):</i><br />
<i>- </i>Have several versions of the same item<br />
- One specific proportion of two or more items<br />
<br />
<i><b>Dividing my items into categories</b></i><br />
<i>Basic items:</i><br />
<i>- </i>Jeans/Pants<br />
-T-shirts<br />
-Long sleeve shirts<br />
-Plain tops<br />
-Plain cotton mid-length shorts<br />
-Plain cotton, and light knit cardigans<br />
<i>Mid-range items</i><br />
<i>-</i>Blouses<br />
-Button down shirts<br />
-Cigarette pants/trousers<br />
-Skirts/culottes<br />
-Printed Ts<br />
<i>Statement pieces</i><br />
- Silk shirts<br />
- Dresses<br />
- Dress pants<br />
- Accessories: bags, shoes, belts and jewelry.<br />
<br />
This exercise has really helped me organise my wardrobe (and my mind), and I am now looking forward to reorganising my clothes. I'm going to always refer to this process for each season to assist me in being consistent with my style (+ lifestyle), and to avoid that nagging feeling of nothing to wear (that results in more spending), and to keep the contents of my wardrobe to a minimal.

<br />
I have seen quite a lot of lovely shirt photos on blogs/tumblers which have inspired me to do one of my own. The shirt contents in my closet have grown quite a lot in the past two years or so, mainly due to the influences of bloggers I follow, and my decision to streamline my style by keeping it more simple. I have always had a thing for shirts, I remember back in highschool I went through the 'grungy' and 'hippy' phase, where I frequented thrift stores quite often and found so many vintage shirts from the 60/70's, the ones with a wide collar, some outrageous print, and made with that weird type of fabric. I bought quite a lot, my friends used to teased me about looking like a 60/70's girl. Today, having accumulated some shirts just reminded me that I have had quite a long affair with them. I have always had a shirt in my wardrobe whether I wear them or not, and they are such an easy thing to wear both casually, or for more formal occasions.<br />
My shirts today have no hint of vintage at all, but each and everyone of them have details that I so love. For example, in spring I got quite obsessed with the men's uniqlo shirt. I love the 3/4 sleeve, the fabric and the cut. From this discovery I have since become obsessed with the men's shirt department at Uniqlo. When I'm near a uniqlo shop I almost always go straight to the men's section and look at what shirts they have in stock. Also, I think the quality is more robust than the ladies shirts. My other shirts are mostly Margaret Howell shirts. I love the cut and the fit, also. The fabric is nothing to rave about, it's simple cotton, but oh so very soft.<br />
I am looking to add a black shirt to this collection. I have been on a look out for quite a while now, but haven't had any luck. I want the same boyfriend cut that the mens shirt have from uniqlo. The ones I have seen so far are too office-y, have stiff fabric, or are too formal. I'll keep looking.<br />

There has been a nice balance of hot and cold temperature in the past 3 days or so, and choosing an outfit hasn't been as much of a challenge. Hence, my beloved shirts are finally getting the opportunity to be worn again, and with a pair of short, (or skirt), I am able to simultaneously keep myself warm and cool, which is quite important when you are carrying a 10kg baby around :)</div>

</div>
Could it be? Is autumn coming, or is this rain just giving me a false sense of hope? Nevertheless, I am grateful that it has at least, the rain, cooled down the temperature even by just a degree!<br />
However, if it is autumn on its way to Japan, I welcome it with open arms (wish it would stay forever). I am so sick and tired of being cooped up in unnatural air/air-conditioner, and not having the will/motivation to move/do anything from fear of breaking into a sweat! (Thus, the lack of clothing rotation and outfit posts). So, if it is autumn in it's way I am looking forward to finally getting a little bit creative with what I wear. Items I am most looking forward to wearing are blazers/jackets, long sleeve shirts, fine knits, and closed shoes.<br />

It's been unbearably hot these past couple of weeks or so, and trying not to sweat is impossible. I've just realised that everything that I have will not suffice for this climate! I just want to wear a cami top and short shorts all the time, but I can't get away with such outfit without attracting attention or unwanted stares. So, I have given up on that idea, and just try to wear whatever I can that will prevent me losing so much fluids minus the unwanted attention. The above outfit pretty much sums up what I wear in general. Skort, or skirt with a T, or denim shorts, and almost always with those sandals or other. If I go somewhere cool (i.e. an airconditioned place- shopping centres), I'll cover my legs and wear a T or shirt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I just have no motivation or patience to take outfit photos, the moment I am ready to go out I just want to leave because our house is like being in an oven! </div>

I haven't had the time nor the motivation to do an 'On rotation' post due the babe, but mostly because of the heat we're experiencing here. Living on the top floor (of a second story building), is no fun at all! It gets very hot during the day, and staying immobile is something I prefer to do (hence the lack of posts). So in doing this, I have shifted my attention to watching movies rather than moving about and sweating buckets. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I will try to do an 'on rotation' posts (hopefully) soon, because I do quite enjoy constructing them. It helps divert my attention onto something else other than what's really bothering me. Just wished that this heat would simmer down for a couple of days at least! (Or bigger windows in this home!) </div>

It's a rare thing for me to be seen wearing a skirt, but yesterday's heat called for it! Also, this skirt is brand new, well..sort of. I bought this last just after I found out I was pregnant, but I haven't had the chance to wear it because of my expanding tummy and the inappropriate seasons. Finally the right time and climate has arrived for it to be worn. It makes me look a little roundish (still haven't lost the post-partum fat! If ever!), but was still happy that I can fit into it (with a little extra room, actually).</div>

The heat is really rising here in Hiroshima (Japan), but it's not just the heat, it's also the humidity. I force myself to constantly drink something to avoid dehydration (esp. because I'm still BF). On top of that, we live on the top floor of a second story building so when day breaks our apartment feels like an oven! Opening what little amount of windows and doors we have just doesn't help! Thankfully though, my in-laws business office is just downstairs, so babe and I tend to spend our afternoons in there because of the air conditioner :)</div>

Alas, this shirt is no longer wearable!! I can't believe it! I was rushing to get change to go grocery shopping with the babe, when I noticed the tear whilst putting on the ergo (baby carry) around my waist. This is only second time I wore this top, both times worn while carrying the baby around, and I'm quite disappointed I teared it. I should of seen it coming when the fabric is so delicate, and the stitching so fine, plus wearing it with a baby around. I'm going to keep it though to see if it can be mended. It only cost me 500yen (thrifted), so I'll check the prices at the alteration/tailor shops around here.</div>

I'm quite satisfied with my sales purchases. It's not what I had listed, but definitely a good addition to my wardrobe, and they are, I think, quite good staples that will last for many years. Although, these aren't the only new items in my wardrobe, as previously seen, I've also got some pre-loved clothing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As mentioned, we are in quite a tight budget, so I have been quenching my thirst for shopping with<span style="color: blue;"> <a href="http://www.bookoff.co.jp/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">bookoff</span></a></span> and the flea market. I've gotten back into the old habit of shopping/spending to relieve stress, only this time I don't quite have the same amount to budget as in the previous years, so in order to combat this I have been a frequenting the places mentioned above. Suffice to say though, I think I am quite content with my wardrobe addition...maybe (until I need to let off steam), so I think I'll TRY not to scratch an itch when I feel the need for clothes...TRY!</div>

I could not resist the APC sales anymore! I need a navy blue top, and this is perfect for what I'm looking for. Please, please fit.<br />
I already promised the other one that I won't purchase/spend anything for a little while...on the credit card. So, this one is going to be paid with cash on delivery (COD), that's my excuse!<br />

Just managed to squeeze this photo whilst the babe was fussing around trying to put herself to sleep (which after almost two hours, she failed to do). I forgot to add my beige ballet flats in there, as seen on previous outfit post. The weather is quite strange at the moment- it's sunny then rainy. Two nights ago I got woken up by a very loud and scary thunderstorm, I quite dislike them, particularly loud, the-earth's-about-to-crack-in-half kind of noise. Luckily, the babe and boy didn't get woken up. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm looking forward to a sunny day so I can have the excuse to wear the shorts, sleeveless top, yellow sandals and bag combination. </div>

I wanted to make an '<a href="http://in-dubitably.blogspot.jp/2013/06/on-rotation-266.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">On rotation</span></a>' post, but I haven't had time/energy because the little babe hasn't been napping /sleeping well, yet again (going through some developmental phase-poor angel). I hoped to one today, but by the time I had the chance the lighting wasn't so good due to the rain and the time of day. </div>

Here are some clothes that I've purchased from the local flea market, and second had store from this, and last, month. The weather has been quite erratic, and so I have not had the chance to wear any of them. I am so looking forward to, though. My favourite would have to be the shirt. Once the weather heats up, I am thinking of pairing them with the polka dot shorts, or maybe with something else- there are countless combinations. Can't wait.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Since, I got <a href="http://in-dubitably.blogspot.jp/2013/07/busted.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">busted</span></a> for purchasing two pairs of shoes, I made a promise to other one that I would not purchase or spend anything on frivolous things (i.e clothing, shoes etc). In other words, I am banned from shopping. I don't mind this at all, I think I am content with what's in my wardrobe, and am looking forward to wearing what I already have. I just need to keep away from blogs that (unintentionally) stimulate/influence (my)the need to purchase or shop.</div>

The weather suddenly turned from cool and rainy to hot and humid. So, I donned on my shorts, which I have been waiting to wear. I bought them last year while I was still pregnant, and luckily they fit!!</div>

As predicted, I did get into a whole lot of trouble. I kept my mouth shout, however, partly because I was guilty, partly because I had no energy to yell, fight and I've lost my passion for arguing because I don't care anymore. But, mostly because I didn't want WW3 to erupt in front of the baby (which can get very noisy when it does).<br />
I have mixed feelings about these shoes. They looked so good on the website, but in reality they could be better. For one, the sizes are not perfect. The pumps are a long narrow make, so I have to put an insole on the smaller side of my feet. The sandals are a half size bigger, which makes the strap look a little loose, and when adjusted to the next notch they are tight. Also, the colour and the patent finish aren't exactly what I had hoped/expected. I am still undecided on whether to return them both or not, my options to exchange them for something else are limited. My second choice of sandals have already sold out in my size, and my other option for pumps are patent finish, which I don't need because I already have. So, I think I may have to keep both of them. The last pair of shoes I got from MargaretHowell idea where a very simple, minimalistic sandals that have lasted me for almost 9 years (the soles inner foot soles have already cracked), that's why I thought of purchasing some more from this line because of the longevity I have had with my previous pair. I just hope these ones will last just as long. I don't think I will be returning them, just wishful thinking. I'm just too lazy, plus there is the language barrier that makes it even more troublesome.<br />
<br />
Here are the sandals I mentioned. I wish I bought two pairs- I love them so much, they are so comfortable, and they have been with me everywhere, and they are so strong (but the inner sole cracked cause I told mum to wash them :).<br />
