Warning: This is something I bet Whj won’t understand *lol*

For quite sometime now, while watching the series, I’ve been drooling about Nodame’s cute outfits.

And thanks to Meldinsky, I finally found out that one of the labels they use on the series is Tartan Shop York from Sendai, Japan.

Here are some York’s ala Nodame’s one-pieces (patent pending ), usually paired with turtleneck long sleeves, black legging and flat Mary Jane shoes.

Reminds you alot to Burberry, eh? Or does Burberry look way too Tartan-ish?
… Whichever, they’re still adorable.

The red coat she wears both in NC and the much waited 2008 Nodame Cantabile Special, which I’m about to finish downloading btw. Sadly without subs.

BUT!

I most definitely love her piano bags ^u^ Hauun …

*ignore murderous scene plz*

Just the other day, I had a convo with themalletofjustice from DA. She made the piano bag herself and recommended me to make one on my own. As she puts it, simply get a plain black bag and sew the piano keys on it. Ohh, sounds pretty easy, but …  me?? =x=

The other choice is to spend 7700 yen (What?!) on Ebay for the original stuff. Expect to be charged another 10,000 yen for shipping. And, while you’re at it, why not buy the Mongoose couple soft toys too *sports the most sarcastic expression*

Extremely cute, and extremely pocket draining. $57 anyone?

Um, no thank you.

As expected, I can not pull off a sarcastic look.

On a happier note (rdfghjkqwpkjhgvYAY!!) I’ve actually ordered this S-Orchestra T-shirt online. My first online purchase ever! Lucky me, for once there is a fellow Malaysian who is taking orders for the tee = I can pay from my bank account; I don’t do paypal :) It costs around RM50-60 a piece or roughly $12-15. Damn, Ringgit keeps increasing. If some of you are interested, you can check this out.
