Warm to your fingertips. Fitting and care tips for enjoying your gloves in comfort
Once your fingertips get cold, they tend to stay that way until you step into a warm room. The item that solves this kind of chilliness in your hands is, of course, "gloves." This time, we'll introduce tips on choosing and fitting gloves so you can enjoy wearing them comfortably for a long time.
Give the gift of excitement—winter accessories that brighten up your face
Accessories can transform an outfit's mood or lift your spirits, even with just a single piece added to your look. Choose an accent color or something with a bit of sparkle, and it will brighten your whole face. From necklaces to earrings and brooches, we introduce accessories perfect for yourself or for someone special you're shopping for.
Lightweight and warm, all in one piece. Choosing your winter quilted wear.
Quilted wear designed with a structure that excels in warmth retention. Its air-trapping construction keeps you toasty warm inside, yet the whole piece is so lightweight that you can move about freely. We recommend it as a winter essential—whether worn as an outer layer or as an inner layer.
Add warm materials and colors to your winter basket bag arrangement
Bags woven from plant materials such as akebi (akebi vine), rattan, and raffia are items that evoke a distinct "summery" feel. Yet given their fashion appeal, durability, and the pleasure of watching them age over time, it's only natural to want to use them year-round. With that in mind, we'd like to introduce some key points for styling kago bags (basket bags) so they feel just as at home during the colder months.
Enjoy the happiness of being wrapped in warmth—a pullover made from luxuriously soft super-brushed fabric.
The comfort of soft, stress-free brushed-back fabric is something we'd love to bring into everyday style. So, along with the material itself, we've also given careful thought to the shape, creating brushed-back fabric items that adults can wear stylishly with ease. Known as "super uraken (brushed-back fabric)," this densely woven, fluffy-brushed material is 100% cotton, yet warm enough to serve as a substitute for a sweater.
# Choosing your outer layer to suit your shape and coordination: winter's best friend
Of course you want your winter outerwear to be warm—but you also want it to keep a clean, beautiful silhouette. And you want a jacket that blends naturally into casual outfits, too. Here are some pointers for choosing outerwear that satisfies all of these wishes.
Warmth, and a sense of security. When preparing for winter, start with knitwear.
Knitwear is something we crave the moment winter arrives. Warmth is certainly part of it, but there seem to be so many reasons we're drawn to knits—the soft, enveloping feel against the skin, the charm of carefully designed stitches, and more. Finding your own knit piece, one that fits your personal style and fashion sense, can become a true ally in your winter wardrobe.
Mufflers and Stoles from a Distinguished British Brand: How to Choose Timeless Pieces You'll Wear for Years to Come
With a wide variety of colors and patterns, mufflers are meant to be cherished for years to come. Here, we'd like to share some tips for choosing one that suits you perfectly—or one that would be just right as a gift for someone special. The brand we're featuring is Highland Tweeds, celebrated as a prestigious British name in mufflers and stoles.
Go out with just the essentials—a bag that doubles as a wallet
Carefully select only the bare essentials and head out with a light heart and body, carrying just a small bag. These days, when credit cards and IC transit cards can cover most payments, we wondered whether leaving the wallet at home and building wallet functions right into the bag itself might make you feel even lighter on your feet — and that idea was the starting point for planning this 3WAY WALLET BAG.
What to Know About Pots and IH Cooktops Before Winter Arrives
Nabe (hot pots) are indispensable for cooking in the cold season. By choosing the right size and material, they can also be tools that greatly enhance the deliciousness of your ingredients. These days, with IH cooking heaters becoming as common as gas stoves, it's worth matching your choice to your own kitchen setup. Here, we introduce how to choose a nabe based on both your preferences and your living environment.
Cardigans and Ponchos: Choosing Outer Layers from Early Autumn to Winter
A light outer layer is essential for enjoying stylish looks during the short autumn season. Choose pieces that let you get through the temperature swings of morning, noon, and night comfortably and smartly. By keeping a variety on hand—cardigans, hoodies, and other different types, as well as pieces with different silhouettes and lengths—you'll always have the right layer ready to match any outfit.
For delicious rice: Japanese tools worth mastering
Rice is something deeply familiar to all of us. This autumn, why not pay closer attention to how you cook your rice, so you can enjoy it at its most delicious? Japan's traditional tools can be a wonderful help when it comes to making a truly good pot of rice.
Dress and hat pairings that bring balance to your whole look
Autumn and winter are the seasons when we tend to reach for midi- to long-length dresses. The trouble is that they can easily leave you looking flat and elongated from top to bottom. Pairing a long dress with a hat—an accessory that draws the eye upward—helps complete an outfit with a well-considered overall balance.
