I thought Jil Sander's collection for Uniqlo is gonna stop after its spring/summer release last January. Or perhaps, in February the latest. But, hell no. It's keep on coming into the store again and again. Though I try to shun the collection as it doesn't really up to my expectation, but when I went to the store last weekend I can't help but being lured into the +J section. So what do I found this time?
Lots of new stuff which is more making sense and really give the typical Jil Sander's simplicity chic adage. That includes new blazers which is more slim-fitting and in light, interesting colors. Others include these long-sleeved tops in various delicious colors. Like this light blue tee which I found awesome coz the color is gonna be huge for spring. The fabric is lighter than the fall/winter - suitable if you wanna wear it in the warm weather soon. But one thing that I dislike about it is the fit on the sleeve, which is very 'hugging' coz it wrapped slightly too tight. Apart than that... it's just great.
Other colors in the similar range include this yellow ochre (or dark mustard) - which I think doesn't suit my darker skin tone. :( Btw, the one in pistachio green is great and looks too delicious to be worn, just like a pistachio sundae on a summer noon. Ahaks! Very nice color. Fyi, all the tees come in either crew or v-neck. Price? Quite okay, but if you wait a couple of weeks more, they might be slashed to half price. :)
Oh, what is summer without the trilby, right? These straw trilbies from Uniqlo is not new, coz they've been in store for ages. Still, it's new for me to pick 'em up to try btw. I just love the simplicity of the look, plus the color is classic too and can be paired with anything. Oh, did I said it's 'straw'? Well, not really coz they're made of polypropylene-polyester mix. But it has all the 'straw' feel that we all like. Price? They're dead cheap. Get it while you can coz trilbies gonna be massive too!
One more thing. Uniqlo got some new totes for men. Very simple bags in neo-leather which comes in black and off-white, just like the colors of their neo-leather jackets. :)
