I Am Wearing: Top & Jeans – ASOS | Adidas Superstars | Raybans

Two outfit posts in a go…I’m on a roll! Today’s post includes a few tips on how to add the Japanese / Eastern trend to your wardrobe, accompanied by shots of myself in an outfit that emulates my love for the Karate Kid…just kidding, but it does look like I am wearing karategi, which I guess is the whole point of the trend, right?

Here are three easy ways to start wearing the trend…

 

1. Cropped & Wide Leg Trousers and Culottes

Opt for loose fitting, high waist trousers, especially those with a cropped or raw edge. You can go for culottes or pleated wide leg styles to re-create wearing Hakama: traditional Japanese trousers.

2. D-Ring Belts

Look for D-ring belts that cinch you in at the waist on either tops or trousers. Such as my belted D-ring top here or these gorgeous D-ring trousers here.

3. Origami Tailoring

If you like oriental patterns, then this will add a Japanese feel to any outfit. But, to take on a modern version of the eastern trend think of origami tailoring with pleats and wrap over detailing.

ASOS is currently one of my favourite stores, especially for creating an Eastern Feels look, so whether you look in the sale or the new in section you will be bound to find something to create your own karate kid look. Below I have popped the items in this post, if you want to go and check them out in more detail and these jeans were on sale for just £12!
