/ UNIQLO

MR SEKIMACHIHATO
Quit my marketing job to become a full-time house-husband and casual blogger at http://sekimachihato.blogspot.com/
Currently living in Hong Kong and about to return to Tokyo in a few months time.

So I’m a house-husband. The rain finally stopped so after hanging out some washing I took my son for a walk outside in the sun. I wore a fine stripped gray three-quarter sleeve shirt from UNITED ARROWS, skinny fit beige pants from UNIQLO and a thin leather belt from TOMORROWLAND to keep them up. As it was hot outside I should have opted for some leather sandals but instead wore my navy leather deck shoes from I.T. My accessories today included my silver CASIO databank watch and a simple silver bracelet from the France based Japanese designer HIROKO OMARI.
My 3-months old son was wearing a cute stripped outfit from GAP Japan.

I am wearing an old green army style shirt from GAP – with nice pleats on the pocket, and a pair of Khaki shorts with cargo pockets – very functional and utilitarian. I am also wearing a UNIQLO Tee with yellow socks, also from UNIQLO. It’s 6:00pm and I am sitting at my desk after a day of walking the streets with my camera, in London’s Urban jungle.

I run TOURIST magazine and make things in Manchester and sometimes Sweden.

From below and up I am wearing a pair of black (somewhat sun bleached) shorts in sweatshirt material, they are an akward length, one popular in the early ninties (the era of which they are a bi product) which is why I have made turn ups of the ends. On the back pocket there is a screenprinted capital R. I dont know where they are from. We dug them out of my mothers back up wardrobe, she saves everything. They have drawstring in the waist and cement splatter all over since they were used to build a wall by my fiancé helping my father where we are holidaying, in a small sea side town on the coast of sweden which I can only describe as paradise on earth. Underneath I am wearing black knickers, totally standard cotton girl next door knickers, which is what I find both comfy and sexy. On my upperbody I am wearing a grey washed out tshirt with an OHM sign from India. I bought it there (for about a pound) a few years ago when I went to the very south of india to sit on a rooftop practicing yoga for 2 weeks. On top of that I have a black cardigan which (as the label tells me) is from UNIQLO, it confused me a while ago where this cardigan actually came from, I thought maybe I bought it when I was living in Tokyo, only to remember that its from the lost and found box of a bar that I do the door for. Not a single garment is spot free. from cement splatter to chocolate rice pudding from Berlin which I had the other night in bed whilst watching the new Roman Polanski film which was pretty terrible.

Other than that I am wearing my engagement ring, which is the same ring my father gave my mother as their engagement ring, saving up all his money whilst being in the army for the white gold, which my fiancé now has filed with a small diamond from england so not only is it a heritage piece but like us part english, part swedish. My skin is plenty of shades darker from the mid day swims and I also constantly wear 5 tattoos, ranging from 2 crosses, a square, 2 pieces of writing and a triangle. And my nails are scuffed with CHANEL rouge noir.

I make a zine in my bedroom called BFR. It’s all hand drawn and then photocopied in the school library. Most of my time is spent on London public transport, getting home from lame house parties in zone 6 or just rifling around.

I am wearing low NIKE dunks that I got when I was 12 years old, they are very pink and grubby having served me six years of physical education and some little socks that I took from my Mum’s draw this morning. I’m also wearing some greenish coloured drainpipes back from when I used to think nu rave was like the best thing everrr. Oddly clothes from when I was 13 still fit me. Then I’m wearing a standard AMERICAN APPAREL tri-blend male tank with a blue, red and green UNIQLO (again from the mens section) tartan shirt on top. Over that I’ve stolen my Dad’s MARKS & SPENCER cardigan, its super big and soft and navy. My mum bought it for him when we were at the seaside because he was cold, but he didn’t like the plastic buttons, so she has sewn on some rather dashing cork ones as a replacement. Unfortunately the moths are getting to it. My hair is an utter state as usual, but it’s down today because I went to a ball last night and pretty much rolled out of bed and into the library (for revision) and I couldn’t be bothered to sort it out because it’s rainy today. On my face, I have both my lobes pierced which are adorned with VIVIENNE WESTWOOD orb earrings and I have my cartilage pierced on the top of my right ear which has a ring in it. Because I am rather blind, I am wearing orange glasses and shit loads of eyeliner. I also have by MARC by MARC JACOBS school bag with me, it is oil cloth and has lots of funny drawings on it like a banana eating itself and a huge zip and a MARC JACOBS bone bangle (on my left wrist) and a TIMEX watch (on my right wrist).

I’m wearing blue & white stripe SAINT JAMES sweater. UNIQLO bootcut jeans. Cuffed and my old beige canvas boat shoes. STELLA McCARTNEY scent and no jewelry, because I’m not really into embellishments.

First day back to work. It’s 9:00 AM and cold in New York. I am wearing a HICKEY shirt with white collar, tucked into grey wool COMME ÇA pants. I have on a navy and red knit tie from UNIQLO. Also wearing a cardigan from ALTERNATIVE EARTH and dress shoes from BARNEYS. I just got into the office but I was keeping warm with a PAUL SMITH peacoat and a cream-colored scarf from ZARA. I was carrying a JACK SPADE leather bag that houses my PAUL SMITH wallet, my cell phone, AGNES B. keychain and keys (that my wife bought for me as a Christmas present before we were even married) and a January 4, 2010 edition of the New Yorker. There was a great article on Christmas and Vincent Van Gogh’s ear.

Today I’m wearing MISTER HOLLYWOOD’S black tuxedo collar coat from 09/10 AW collection. I bought this coat when I was on a photo shoot for this magazine (Can’t say which because its not released yet) with Lucas Ossendrijver, LANVIN men’s wear designer. During the shoot we went to MISTER HOLLYWOOD in Harajuku. The brand is also known as N. HOLLYWOOD. This coat caught my attention right when I walked in the store, I tired it on and it was perfect. There isn’t that many opportunities to be shopping with Lucas so I asked him if it looks good or not and he said “it looks very nice” with a smile…. I bought it right away! Underneath I’m wearing UNIQLO dark grey v neck sweater, AMERICAN APPAREL v neck t shirt in white. Recently it has been very cold in Tokyo and I can’t go outside without wearing UNIQLO men’s HEATTECH tights and over that black DIOR HOMME jeans. Very sharp boots by GIANNI BARBATO in black. Knitted black neck warmer by H&M. PRADA studded black leather wallet and iPhone in my pockets. Also Ricoh GR II digital camera.
