Tokyo Weekender August 2017

PRADA BACKPACK
August equals holidays, and for trips to the beach or overseas getaways,
a backpack is an essential accessory to carry all your stuff. This Prada
number is adorned with the label’s signature colorful robots. The padded
mesh back and adjustable shoulder straps make it comfortable and
practical. Even if you’re not going anywhere on vacation, you’ll be able to
use this bag for the gym or even for your daily commute to work – yes,
even paired with a suit, as it’s Prada.

MCQ ALEXANDER MCQUEEN T-SHIRT
McQ, the streetwear division of the brand created by the late Alexander
McQueen, features the same rebellious and fun items, but at a more
affordable price point. This particular number is a fun twist on the classic
striped T-shirt, with irregular patterns and a hot pink swallow-skull
appliqué. The pattern is in fact a black and white photocopy of folded
fabric, which makes for a good summer party conversation starter.

SWIMSUIT
Beach season is not over yet, so take
advantage of the mid-summer sales to
pick up new swimwear. Whether you hit
the beaches surrounding Tokyo or travel
to a more exotic locale [see page 20], this
Burgundy one-piece suit is all you need to
pack. We like the flattering bandeau shape
and ruched stretched fabric, which will
smooth everything out for a streamlined
silhouette. The suit comes with optional
halter straps for added support.

ADIDAS ORIGINALS SNEAKERS
We love, love, love the ubiquitous Stan Smith sneakers, which have
been around since the 70s and have grown to become an iconic shoe
style. While everyone these days is wearing a version or another of Stan
Smiths, you can stand out of the pack with this mint-green pair, which is
perfectly refreshing for summer. Pair them with jeans and a simple white
T-shirt for an effortless yet stylish look.
