brand i just found called "enfold"...
concept

ENFÖLD

HIDDEN BEAUTY

“Clothes that make the wearer feel a sense of ultimate luxury
not clothes worn for the benefit of somebody else contrary to the wearer’s taste”
True beauty is hidden and lies not where it can be seen.
Comfort that can be felt only by the wearer and
a silhouette created by intentionally hiding the body line.
We emphasize these elements to create feminine beauty.
The clothes not for dress up for anyone, but for the best luxurious feeling of yourself

i don't know why, but most japanese bottoms are high waisted and just seem great...
stylish and comfortable...
these are just another example...

...

first time i have seen this-
stripes + sparkles = my two fave things in socks...
i think these would look great with ankle boots...

i am currently obsessed with zozotown...
...

and i thought i'd just post this link to spoon and tamago's tokyo guide for easy reference...

[softgrey]

so-
everything i find on zozotown- (or any japanese site) i sort of find accidentally because i cannot do a search since i don't know any japanese characters- (or even how to change my keyboard to japanese)...

in this case i came across this down blanket/shawl...
i had seen it while i was in tokyo and got slippers from this company...
they are my super fave slippers...
the best ones i have ever had and i love/wear them so much that they are about to die...
i have added a faux shearling insole to make them last a bit longer, but every day i am aware that they are dying...

demo...
now that i have found they still make the blanket, maybe they also still make the slippers?!?!?
......

can anyone please do a search to let me know if the slippers are available someplace?
please please please?!?!

[softgrey]

also-
i was hoping to get some cute socks in tokyo since they have so many, but i was actually quite overwhelmed and i only got a couple of special pairs because i really didn't know where to start...

now i have figured out that i should have been looking for tabio...
i had forgotten all about them but that is a good place to start when looking for socks in japan...

this is a simple pair i love like crazy...
love the short length and the textured stripe...
it's SO hard to find this length!!!
whenever i see something like this i get really excited...
...

and such a nice colour combo---olv and nvy...
i think they are also cool in the blk and red combo...

[softgrey]

OMG...
another pair of tabio's that i love...
i never find socks like these...
never...argh!
...

if i had socks like these, i'd probably be more inclined to wear socks with my shoes more often - a la CdG...
part of the problem with certain outfits is the socks...
which shouldn't really be such an issue...
it's ridiculous...
look at these nice things...
why aren't they more widely available?!

 

[softgrey]

fluffy!

here is the page for the shoes, guapa

http://zozo.jp/shop/greenlabel/shoes/

are they these ones ?

~ on google chrome, every time im on a page with a different language than the one on default they ask me if i want it to be translated. don't you have that?

 

[runner]

what kind of style captain ?
even though green label doesn't have it on zozo now, they might have it or something similar elsewhere.


general "room shoes slippers" on zozo, if you're interested

 

[softgrey]

thanks br-
i do have that translate thing ...
but it's new and i didn't think it would work backwards-
like i didn't think it would work to translate something that i type in...
i tried typing in the brand name and searching, but i got no results, so that is why i thought it would not work...

thanks runner-
room shoes is what i am talking about, yes-
they are what we call a scuff...
just slip on with an open back...
i may have saved a pic somewhere on my computer...
will try to find it...
i think i got them at loft but i also saw them in some other small place around nakameguro so i would appreciate it if you could check other places besides zozo...

thanks for checking those BR- but, no...
not even close......
cute booties though...

 

[softgrey]

ah- i found an old pic in my files...
this is the exact style and print...
it's the same print as the shawl on the top right...
technically there is a back to them but it can be pushed down and worn open in the back and that is what i do...

so- yeah...
if you see these anywhere at all...?!?!
thanks so much...

[softgrey]

just want to put the rest of my fabulous tabio finds here for reference...
the houndstooth is so killer...
...

* amazing to see them all together...
it's very consistent, no?
i guess i must like sort of classic menswear patterns...

zozo

 

[runner]

found this
not sure what kind of site it is though, will try to check well later.

 

[runner]

it seems that wear.jp is a kind of zozo affiliate.
also found another selling it.
I think the two sites above are the only online venues where it appears to be available.

green label relaxing is one of those lines from united arrows (the shop who used to be the first dealer of carpe diem. also your linen culottes are from another line of theirs). and according to them, the blanket went into production for this fall. but FW 2014 was the last season they produced the slipper so far. they may make it next fall again. nobody knows at this point. it's like that about it.
so if we see it anywhere, it is what is left from the previous collections. they are supposed to let me know tomorrow if there are any physical stores which still have it on sale.

 

[runner]

they, united arrows and the maker both, could not find any physical shops who currently carry it.
so all we have seem to be the options above.
but I'm afraid what we see on wear.jp is just remaining data since the price looks like the retail one, in which case lazy susan is the only place. though we cannot tell until you actually try ordering it anyway.

 

[softgrey]

thanks soooo much for checking that runner~!
i really do appreciate it, even if we cannot find them...
at least i know for sure now...


i think you are right about wear.jp- it's old info and, also- the slipper is slightly different and i cannot say i like it as much as the original...
the one from lazy susan is really great- i love the fur print just as much as the sweater print and it is the same style/model as the ones i have...honestly- i would buy two pairs...they are super perfect...


but when i try to add it to my cart i get a pop up message that says this...
カラー・サイズを選択してください。

i am assuming that means it is sold out or something...

so- i guess that it isn't meant to be...
...

 

[runner]

you're welcome captain
it says please select size and color.

 

[Alstroe]

zozo.jp doesn't ship to my country. Does anybody know of a trustworthy escrow service, or, could anybody take over that duty?

 

[softgrey]

you're welcome captain
it says please select size and color.

...
haha...

funny- cause it won't let you select a size and color...
then i realized that it says "sold out"...
so- that is the end of that story...



thanks for the translation dear...
