One thing that I did not expect about myself is how obsessive I want to be stylish. I am not even good looking. I don’t have a face or a body that is good for fashion – unless everyone want to be ridiculously skinny without any muscle. Continue on with my fashion craving after the spring scarves, my focus now is on finding a better summer look – the season that I hated the most and the season that I never know how to dressed.

Obviously I need inspiration and as you know me I need to do research, so I bought these magazines….i know spending 20 bucks on magazines is kinda crazy, not to mention I didn’t even know how to read Japanese, but man, these magazines are like fashion bible for me!!!

The one on clothing – “Fineboys” – not only teach you the different stages and difficulties of mix and match, but all different kind of style u want to achieve – causal, formal, school, traditional, rock, outdoor, work, marine, etc. From active casual to elegant traditional, it got you covered! This issue teach you “to be a ‘shirt meister!”, which i figure it means in real English – to be a shirt master? They are seriously not kidding! I bet if I could understand 95% of the words in the magazines, I really could be a shirt master! But right now just looking at the pictures and the 5% words that I understood, I already seen at least a dozen styles of wearing just short-sleeves tees, let alone other types of shirts!! There’s so many awesome styles in it that I will surely learn to integrated into my style!

The other magazine is “super select 1000″? it got hundreds of different Japanese hairstyles from long to short. I love the Japanese, without them, men’s hairstyle would be so boring!!! Of course many of the hairstyle I can’t try at all because of the length of my hair, but there’s still more than a dozen hairstyles that might fit me~ the magazine not only show you the style but also how to style it and what did you need as well~

Bonus of these two magazines are the chapters in the end that one of them labeled “Perfect motemote training”, it covers from skin care to trim your hair to body exercises. You would not believe this, but I actually tried out some of the exercises advice here~ LOL~
