Yakult 1000 is the elixir.

The intestines are also called the "second brain. I knew that it is such an important organ that there is a term "gut-brain correlation," but when I actually started taking Yakult 1000, I feel that both my mind and body have improved. Mainly the mental aspect. Yakult 1000 can be found in convenience stores and supermarkets, so if you find it, buy it. It makes quite a difference in how refreshed I feel when I wake up from sleep.

SHEBA

Sheba's Packable Jacket

Application of both A-sides.

You buy a reversible item but never turn it inside out. I think this is a common fashion experience that everyone has had, but I suspect the reason for this is the strong contrast between the front and back. The front is plain and the back is patterned. I don't like the kind of brazen guy who is in the mood for plain clothes, but then a paisley pattern peeks out. So I think it's fine if it's reversible in a casual way, so long as you only notice it when you are told. This jacket is white on one side and ivory on the other. The reversibility is perfect, but only slightly so. But that's the beauty of it. It could be used as a subtle nuance in styling. It's packable, so it's useful in this time of year when the temperature varies greatly between cold and warm, and you can also keep it in your backpack as a travel companion. The milk and honey hues will neutralize the summer heat.

Lem's Sweatshirt

New Age Sweat.

It is often said that "a first work contains everything about the artist," and you can feel everything about the creator in this sweatshirt. This sweatshirt was made by a staff member and buyer of "Cleopatra," a select store in Horie, Osaka.JUNJIMr. KUN. He is a man who looks at home and abroad, crossing borders and genres, and his work has a stateless mood that doesn't belong to anywhere. Moreover, it is not a staggered, unsteady movement, but rather a light pivot toward mode and rave, with its feet planted on the street. The top is a cross between a boat neck and a mock neck, with a chunky dolman sleeve. The bottom, on the other hand, is wide tapered. The sleeves and hem are cut off, so you don't feel the plainness characteristic of sweatshirts. It can be worn as a set-up or combined with other items to change its flavor. It is tailored with a formula that only a buyer who edits various brands could come up with. He is a young man, but he is a good one.

Type of person

Type of person shoulder bag

Made in Hand.

Type of Person" items have an unmistakable flavor of American culture. What's more, it's not a pungent, pungent smell, but a soft flavor. I think this is probably because it is made up of clever sampling, not poor tracing. This bag is also colored like a hunting bag, but it is not earthy and has a dashing atmosphere like a messenger bag. Moreover, the bag has a capacity to hold a PC and a change of shirt. What struck me personally was the sentence written on the EC: "Please note that there may be some individual differences in the finished product. The designer Kohta's personality is very much evident, and I think this charm is very American. The individual differences that come out because it is handmade are now a taste. I want to enjoy it to the fullest.

iFLYTEK

AI Voice Recorder by iFlytech

You're wanted! Time thief.

Transcription is a time-consuming process for interviews and meeting minutes, and it is not uncommon for an hour's worth of interview time to be doubled or even exceeded when carefully transcribed. I have tried everything I can do, but in the end, it's all symptomatic. Even if it shortens the time by a few minutes, it does not cure the root cause of the problem. However, I have a feeling that VOITER, the AI writing recorder, will revolutionize the transcription world. To briefly explain its function, it removes unwanted noise even in noisy environments or during online meetings, and the AI converts the voice into text, judging the context and automatically correcting the text. For example, even complicated sentences such as "Kisha no kisha ga kisha de kisha shite (Your company's reporter returned to the office by train)" can be converted in one shot. There are too many features to write about anyway, so for more details, please refer tothis way (direction close to the speaker or towards the speaker)I'm thinking of waving my state-of-the-art Inro in front of them at the next interview. I'm thinking of waving my state-of-the-art Inro in front of you with a smug look on my face at my next interview.

Yuri Sudo

Otaku, I've started.

I have been a fan for only one month, but I miraculously won a ticket to TWICE's live concert and went to Tokyo Dome the other day (!!!). I was so excited to see TWICE live in Tokyo Dome. I was so used to seeing underground bands live in a small box that I felt a little bit frustrated with the acoustics...the distance...etc., but their performance was more than enough to make me soaked through my mask. I will continue to work hard for once activity!

Boksundga Songmakgeolli and Red Rice Makgeolli

A lot of time, effort and love.

(I'm into K-Pop right now. I've been into K-POP for a while now. I don't remember how it all started, but in the past month, I've been swamped by Niziu, TWICE, and NMIXX, just as J.Y.PARK wanted me to.... Not content with the visual and auditory senses, I have recently been making Korean food at home in an effort to Koreanize my taste buds as well. And I was quite shocked by the experience of ordering makgeolli from Boksundogga, so I would like to introduce it to you. It is so-called "raw makgeolli," which is bottled without heat treatment and with the yeast and lactic acid bacteria still alive, and is therefore full of nutrients. When the seal is opened slightly, the koji inside the bottle ferments and produces carbonic acid, which gives makkoli its original rich, mellow taste and makes it refreshing and very easy to drink. It is also interesting to note that the taste changes slightly between the first and last sips, so you can feel the story in one bottle. The "Song" in the product name means "hand" in Korean, and the name comes from the fact that everything is made by hand. Like idols that are raised by hand, this makgeolli may be the best tasting because of all the time, effort, and love that goes into it.

CIBONE

Cibone's original acrylic file tray

Jungle to bamboo forest.

The desk where I am writing this manuscript is like a jungle. I wade through piles of documents to find receipts, uncover books that I thought I bought but didn't have, and even a towering plastic bottle that I'm about to drink out of. We know that a messy desk has a negative impact on efficiency. So I decided it was time to turn to tools, and if I was going to go to the trouble of making them stylish, the first thing I looked for was a "Cibone. There it was, and a good one at that. The acrylic trays are stackable, so you can store different types of items separately (so far, so good). The best part is that the colored lines that trace the silhouette of the tray are distinctive and make a stylish accent for a drab desk. The neon green, pink, and smoke gray color choices are very Cibone-like, don't you think? This will make you feel good, and the jungle will surely become as clear as a bamboo grove.

WATARU TOMINAGA

Wataru Tominaga's see-through striped T

Summer Accomplice.

In 2016, the brand won the top prize at a competition for designers, made its full debut at the New York Collections in 2020, collaborated with numerous brands including Marimekko, and made its debut at Paris Fashion Week in 2021...and it has been going up without a moment's pause for breath. Wataru Tominaga". The brand's appeal lies in its vibrant, pop color palette and graphics that make you want to stop and look. Up until now, I've been content with seeing early 20-somethings wearing "Wataru Tominaga" stylishly, but I thought this season's collection might add some flair to my humble wardrobe, so let me introduce it to you. Navy, yellow, orange, green, red, and blue, it's a colorful border tee, just like a Sentai Rangers tee, but the 2×3 color combination makes it look classy and put together. And if you look more closely, you can see that there is a see-through lamé material interspersed between the borders, creating a mysterious floating sensation! Once again, we feel the brand's breadth, and with summer just around the corner... we definitely want to wear it all the time with an unfounded sense of excitement.

CAMISAS MANOLO

Camisus Manolo shirt

Shirts and Curiosity.

I thought it was a well behaved shirt brand.sight(PC recommendation). The photos of shirts lined up elegantly are zoomed in on with the mouse, the text flows from the bottom to the top, and the visuals are charming. And when you look at the products, you can see traces of curiosity as they try to find a solution to the subject of "shirts" using all kinds of equations. I chose this shirt to wear in summer. It has a wide-bodied form, but the transparent cotton material is not too sloppy, and the citrus color is sure to bring in the fresh summer breeze. It is the kind of finish that seems to fit into the existing genre of shirts, but does not. Incidentally, it is probably only available in Japan at a select store called "Esmeralda Serviced Department. It is a sophisticated store that sells a mix of new and used clothing and creates visuals with a pinch of its own humor, but their solution to this shirt is also excellent, so be sure to check it out!sightfor more information.

A supreme 90 minutes.

I've been on a soccer kick lately, watching CL, EL, and the leagues of various countries. Among them, the recent match between Man C and Liverpool in the Premier League was without a doubt the best game of the season. The tactical, technical, and intensity aspects of the match were all of the highest dimension, and it was the best entertainment in the world.

Goldwin

GOLDWIN Jacket

natural die

GOLDWIN" has been on my mind lately. They announced their new project "GOLDWIN ZERO" at the recent Rakuten Fashion Week, and looking at their seasonal visuals, it is hard to believe that they are an outdoor brand, and I feel that they are gradually strengthening their fashionable tints while keeping their focus on the outdoors. I was particularly interested in the "M-WIN ZERO" brand. One of the items that caught my attention was the "Mobility Packable Jacket. As the name suggests, it is a packable shell jacket, but the key point is that the fabric is dyed with natural dyes made from discarded plants. The exquisite indigo color comes from indigo. Also, the ripstop made from recycled nylon reproduces a cotton-like texture, making it easy to incorporate into everyday coordinates. Rather than being environmentally conscious being the reason for choosing, what I wore because I liked the design was actually sustainable. I think the latter is more essential, as I would actually wear it for a long time.

CCU

C.C.U. shirt jacket

Moderate leather.

I have worn many kinds of clothes, but I have no experience with leather. I thought it was too rugged for me. However, I was impressed at first glance by the leather shirts offered by "C.C.U.," which started in the fall/winter of 2020, and thought, "I would like to wear that. The material that looks like linen is actually silk. The leather is used as pig suede in the pockets, which gives it a nice accent. It is casual, yet has a dressy aspect, making it easy to wear, even for those who have shied away from leather. Although the design looks like a jacket, it has the lightness and comfort of a shirt, so I hope it will play a leading role in the summer when people will be wearing lighter clothes.

VEILANCE

Veilance's Coat

Can't wait for rain.

When choosing clothes, I used to place importance on the context of who made them and how they were made. Recently, however, my taste has changed. Editors have to sit, run, carry heavy objects, and move around a lot when shooting. In such situations, functional clothes are the most useful. For me, the best solution was Veilance. Minimalist clothes that have been stripped down to the bare minimum are perfect for work wear, regardless of the occasion. The "Rexar Coat," newly introduced for the 22SS season, is another item I want to add to my wardrobe. 13 denier GORE-TEX 3L C-KNIT makes it waterproof yet super lightweight. It also has none of the crispiness characteristic of GORE-TEX. This is just right for wearing around town. If you have this in the rainy season, you will be able to enjoy the rain a little, which would normally be depressing.

DIESEL

Diesel Denim Pants

Glen denim.

Have you had a chance to take a look at the Diesel feature article published last month? Focusing on the "Diesel Library," a major project by new creative director Glen Martens, we asked 10 people active in various fields to appear in the article. The lineup for this collection is denim items that will last for generations to come, regardless of the season. Staple items, sounds good, doesn't it? Among them, the denim that intrigued me the most was this denim. The silhouette is notable for its big size, which is typical of Glen. Normally, you would want to cut the hems, but Diesel's style is to wear them as they are. If I were to wear them, it would be obvious that the hem would drag, but with these, it becomes a style. I don't know if I can wear it as elegantly as the other participants, but I'll give it a try for the time being.

I have been buying only monotone, gray, and navy clothes, but this spring I am in the mood for colorful clothes. I don't mean vivid or fluorescent colors, but rather pastel colors that are a little duller. This cardigan, specially ordered by 417 EDIFICE for Crepuscule, is a perfect match. The pale purple color fits well with an outfit based on basic colors, yet still gives off a spring-like feeling. The cotton used for the material is thick yet soft, allowing you to wear it stress-free. It can be worn casually with the buttons open or traditionally with the buttons closed. The colors are challenging, but it is a piece that matches a wide range of outfits.

Graphpaper

Graphpaper polo shirt

Rough and elegant.

I don't know how many more pieces of clothing I've bought from Graphpaper. Their clothes, with their timeless basic designs, not to mention their use of high quality materials, can be worn for many seasons without getting tired of them. This season, we picked up a moderately thick half-sleeve polo in a fawn knit. What's best about it is the elegance that it somehow exudes. By using high gauge twin yarn of high quality cotton with little fluff, the fabric has excellent durability and soft touch in addition to fine unevenness. The pattern design with volume creates a margin between the fabric and the body, making it cool and comfortable to wear even in summer. If the collar is also resistant to losing its shape, it is sure to be a summer best friend for the next three years.

Buller's Baker Pants

Striking white pants.

I never owned any white pants until a few years ago, but recently I have been wearing them 2~3 times a week. I used to avoid them because I thought they made me look conservative, but when I bought a pair of wide silhouette white pants to try, I was hooked. I was hooked on the original lightness of the color, not to mention the conservative look, and I have been wearing the chinos and sweat pants I bought last year frequently. I acquired a pair from the up-and-coming brand "Blur," which debuted the year before last, for this summer. The material is a blend of cotton, linen, and polyester for a crisp, lightweight feel. The gentle texture created by the Dumbler process is also a distinctive feature. The pockets throughout are also attractive, but my personal points are the elastic waistband and hem ties. These white pants can be worn as casually and elegantly as track pants, which is not easy to find.

UNUSED × SUICOKE

Unused x Swicok sandals

Sandals with pouch.

It's time to get out the sandals! It may be too early to say, but if you look around town, you will see that some people are already wearing them. So, I immediately went out and bought a new pair. I chose a collaboration model between "Unused" and "Swicock," as is customary every season. As you can see, this season's model features a pouch on the slide. At first glance, it seems like a bold design, but when you try them on, they don't stand out, and they fit in just right as an accent. The shoes are tough, non-slip, and have excellent cushioning. So, what to put in the pouch? The answer varies from person to person, but personally, I would say a bottle opener or coins. Speaking of the coming season, we will be drinking outside, and there are surprisingly many saunas where you can't use your smartphone for payment.

Yuka Koga

Various entrances to the zone.

Everyone has their own reasons for going camping. In my case, I recently realized that it is because I want to trance my consciousness. I think I am always looking for that feeling of being in a zone, like when you are staring at a still lake or something. I think this is similar to running or going to clubs. In search of a way to trance, I have recently been interested in isolation tanks.

SEVEN BY SEVEN

Seven by Seven Shirts

A piece of early summer.

I like long sleeves even in hot weather. The days of oddly fluctuating temperatures have finally come to an end, and I can feel that we are heading into summer very quickly. However, unless it is extremely hot, I tend to reach for long sleeves. At the very least, I'd like to keep cool from the public eye and wear a marble pattern like this. The delicate pattern on this shirt by Seven by Seven is not a print. When you touch it, it has a rough texture as if the paint has dried. It is dyed by pressing the body against the dye dripped onto the surface of the water, using a technique called hydraulic transfer. This piece is a refreshing reminder of the nostalgia for arts and crafts you used to do in elementary school. The fact that each piece has a different design is also a ticklish point. Just as a pop-up event is being held at "Isetan Shinjuku", please try gently stroking the surface.

Outlery

Outlery cutlery set

IN pocket!

You can find the "CABHEY RIDE ON!!!I always sympathized with you while listening to "Chopsticks in Camping," but it is easy to forget. When staying outdoors, there are many things that could kill you if you forget them, so cutlery is a civilized tool that quickly slips out of your mind. I thought it wouldn't be smart to buy disposable chopsticks every time, so I found "Outrally". In addition to chopsticks, Outrally offers spoons, forks, and knives, all of which fit comfortably in a palm-sized box. The stylish design is another high point. There are of course several other cutlery products that are excellent for storage, but it is surprisingly hard to find cutlery that is this small and looks so good with such a wide variety of items. While it is possible to carve chopsticks out of wood with a knife and use wild methods, I personally prefer to keep it simple.

Japanese Light Verse

Japanese Light Verse 1-4

An anthology of elegant poems.

I am always compelled to buy a book when I find one that I like, even if I am short of money or have a stack of books to read, but I bought a bunch of them at the end of the month.Japanese Light Versewas a totally painful expense. However, an anthology of poems in four volumes, each volume with a different editor and illustrator, is definitely a good buy. In particular, I couldn't help but pick up the first volume, titled "List of Items on Display in the Luncheon" and illustrated by Nagashinta, which is in the style of Hoshi Shinichi. Another deciding factor was the fact that Makoto Wada did the book cover art for the third volume. The book is small and easy to carry, and since it is a poetry collection, it is nice to be able to open any page you like on a moment's notice. As you would expect from COW BOOKS, there are a lot of good books here. The introduction is also very good, so please read it. The poets serve the taste of the universe with a delicious spoon on a plate... A selection of masterpieces of poetry with a light heart, plain language, and difficult illustrations.

Snow Peak

Snow Peak Table

Camping equipment as furniture.

If you are planning to buy furniture to start a new life, please take a look at outdoor brands. In particular, focus on chairs, tables, and other items that you may no longer need, or may need again after a change in lifestyle, and that are difficult to buy inadvertently. This is because camping gear that is specially designed to be portable can often be stored compactly, and when you no longer need it, you can just fold it up and leave it in the closet. So, let me introduce the "IGT Slim," which I have been using for a year now for my home use. This table, made of wood and iron, looks like a piece of furniture, but it can be flattened by removing the top and folding the legs. The natural teak wood will become more and more durable as it is used more and more. The price is quite reasonable considering that it is a piece of "furniture. The best part is that a part of the top panel can be removed and optional parts can be set. If you want to use it outside, you can use the "flat burner" for cooking or the "stainless tray" for placing hot food. It's all about enjoying the arrangement. Having said that, I haven't bought a single unit yet...
