Default Do you ever open your closet and..?

Sometimes when I put on clothes,I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and wonder if anybody else has Ringo as a fashion icon or am I the only one?

Have you ever worn an outfit and thought "Wow. She has a huge influence over my style"?

Is it strange to desperately want JCHI underwear or or is it just fine?

I have never wanted to wear shiina-like clothing because I am a man... but I do love shiina's taste in clothing. But of course if you have a 10 year career, you clothing style is bound to change. So the question is what shiina do you like to dress like? What particular era do you like. I am a fan of the jihen shiina's dress style. I personally think the best thing a woman can wear is a gown. So classy, so sexy. I think osca shiina was beyond sexy.

But I can tell you shiina has influenced my expectation of the japanese female artist (in terms of her dresscode). I do not know what JCHI underwear are, but if they are underwear associated with shiina, I fully endorse them. I also must see what they look like on a live model...

JCHI underwear = the underwear the models are wearing on the cover of the Just Can't Help It concert DVD

A Honnou cosplay? Lena-chan you rock.

As for which era of Shiina I like the most, I guess Jihen era is the one I think of most often, with those fabulous hats. Anytime she decides to wear a hat I just get happy feelings. Of course, if I wear the something like it, I look like a little girl playing dress up, but that doesn't stop me.

Sophisticated, elegant Shiina is something nothing can touch. Early era has some nice outfits too, but she is more of an 'everygirl' unless it's something like the sailor top with wings, or the infamous nurse outfit. Maybe it's more of, unless she is wearing something outrageous, her outfits seem pretty approachable?

Ah sokka, well they are sexy indeed... just need to find some models now....

Well I must admit I am now a fan of lena-chan. That description of the her closet... how can I not be? Miss lena do you have any pictures in that honnou cosplay on the forum? Is there anyway you could give me a link?

@hikki-chan
Doesn't she kill it with those hats? Shiina is a junior diva in my opinion. She doesn't always go the fancy hat route, but when she does... I love what shiina does fashion wise. From the "I just got out of the bed with my lover" shirt and pumps from spa and treatment, to the sexy "I am not scared to show my scars/shoulders" gold gown from baishou ecstasy. I heart her fashion. I really do. Her shoes are pretty awesome too.
