(thrifted coat, Lux sheer dress, Topshop boots, vintage Chanel backpack)
I've been looking for the perfect pair of over the knee boots forever..there are way too many factors that can just ruin them entirely. These looked promising online but I stayed suspicious until I tried them on in store in New York. I had them taken in while I was home and I think I finally have what I wanted. Turns out they take up surprisingly little suitcase room too.
These were taken outside the station closest to my grandparent's place..I've been going here since I was a kid so I remember before there was a gigantic suspended..croissant circle guarding the north entrance. Still haven't figured out it's significance though.

Love the coat, especially with that dress! Great photos. xo

gorgeous shots on a gloomy day!
That coat is so decadent. And the boots turned out perfectly. I didn't know you could have them taken in, but it makes perfect sense that you should be able to get shoes tailored as you would a dress or pair of pants.

Love the outfit and as the old saying goes.. "If you don't look sexy in fat headphones then you don't look sexy period" You win this.
The boots are great, by having them taken in do you mean you had them fit snugger? That's a great idea, I'm not a fan of loose fitting thigh high boots at all and I love the height of those too, right above the knee is much nicer than higher up the thigh. That backpack is one of my favorite bags of yours too.

The boots certainly turned out well then! They look very nice.
Loving your clear umbrella and chanel backpack...
all I really want to know is what you listening to on those wicked headphones!! would love to know in an update!

I do love those boots! You're right... finding the perfect pair of over-the-knee boots is hard! Finally found some I love at Nine West!
http://lindsaylovesitall.blogspot.com/
that dress is hella japin
if you had only worn the dress without the coat, bag, boots, it would have been a little boring, but YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE IT COOLER THAN IT ALREADY IS!!! love..
what kind of music are you listening too? :)
Love the top two photos! So pretty rumi, and I love the headphones!!!

great dress and coat Rumi. those otk boots are hot, too. what are you listening to?

Topshop boots look amazing! I want them!
there is so much accessory greatness going on here that I don't know where to begin. And that coat is amazing.
Those are pretty sweet headphones.
Hope you're having fun in Japan :D
boots look kick ass! are they sky high heels or platforms?
It's nice to see your style (read: Amercian) juxatposed with Japan. JVC headphones + over-the-knee boots = Uber-hi-tech Bohemian :D
Amen to the clear umbrella- I just posted some pics with one as well. Also-KILLER boots, a good purchase indeed.

Suede boots + rain = disaster. Think before you get dressed hunny bunches.

AND, wow, I envy you SO much now, you're lucky to be in Tokyo! :)
http://illagain.blogspot.com
beautiful outfit as always, and the photos are great as usual too.
Do you mind telling me what kind of lens the camera you use has? The image quality of the pictures is amazing every time, and I'm curious about it.
love your dress!
I thought japan would have an influence on your style but wasn't expecting this. Havn't seen you look this bad ever! The worst thing is you look like you are trying harder than usual, maybe that's where it all went wrong. sorry i don't get it.
Gorgeous boots!
Love, E
I've too have been searching for the perfet pair of thigh boots! You look stunning in that dress and I absolutely love the boots <3.
I am now following your blog :)
Tc, Nia B
I know exactly what you mean by a sudden detail ruining the whole look for thigh high boots. I came across some thigh highs from report signature, but they may be a lil too heavy for me....thinking about it though..
thats a great outfit..amazing pictures too
it's always great to find the pair of shoes you have been looking for for so long!
your dress is pretty! hope the weather isn't too rainy while you are in Japan
If the croissant circle is on the station's entrance...it might be the shape indicating the station line. Have fun in Tokyo. I miss it and I can't wait to go back in a few months to shop!! By the way, if you're still in Tokyo you guys should all go to ONSEN! http://www.ooedoonsen.jp/
It's so much fun! I guess we won't see you at LA fashion week.
i adore that dress :) sweet and sexy :)

You are in TokyoXD!!

welcome to japan
Nice!

so digg the boots.
& so true about simple things that take away from the boots, i've been searching forever for reasonable, nice, simple knee highs. its tough.
oh 'n the chanel pack is wonderful.
xx[n/]
you are adorable.
I love how in the second picture people are amused by you.
I'm really jealous that Tokyo is such a clean place
living in the city I get so caught up with the dirtiness
You are so cute Rumi!
The headphones totally took me back to that epic editorial by one of my favorite models: Ali Stephens.
Ps. Went with Alex (he loved it and wants to make one now!) to a Japanese Garden over the weekend. Thought of you.. hoping you can snap some pics for us? :)

Love your umbrellaaa!! Always wanted one like that too! :) And I know exactly what you mean about the over-knee boots! But these look gorgeous on you!
I can feel the atmoshpere of "Lost in translation" in this pictures:)
Love your outfit darling.

There are too many variations of the over the knee boot. Thats the one flaw about trendy items now. Too many variations but rarely do any get them right or the ones that do you have to fork over a rent check to buy them. One day I would love to make a custom pair of boots. It would be fun and more efficient then spending countless time online and shopping searching for the perfect pair!
Wow ! J'adore ton style ! ^^
wOOo.. GREAT look GiRL!....ilove love your bootas&your backpack!! AMAZiNG!

i love your style so much, but i wondered, where are you from and what do you do, school wise. I really wanna become something that has to do within fashion. I just went to New york myself and I fell inlove! Do you have any school advices?
Too bad it rained. You look gorgeous though. Who do you get to take all of your pictures?

Love your Chanel backpackkkk !!
www.byrdsflyinghigh.blogspot.com
know what you mean with the otk boots. ive 2 suede pairs in the past year. bebe and topshop. tried lining the leg opening with garment tape (that semisticky stretchy stuff they use for knit wear)..elastic..having them sewn (taken in). and for some reason one boot always slouched more then the other...maybe i have uneven thighs. I sold them both..but yours look great :)
Très jolies photos, great pict'!
lovely coat, looks so warm and chic at the same time.
lovely!!! Theres something about the chanel backpack that remains simply timeless!!

the boots are amazing!! i want them!
I think this a perfect way to dress for rainy weather. Wearing a dress seems easier to deal with then wearing pants because the bottom of them always gets wet if your not wearing boots over them.
I love this outfit and your boots are amazing!!!
wow, loving the boots. looks like tokyo is a blast xxx.

I will sell you my soul for your Black Chloe "doc" boots. Or your red. I have searched and searched for a pair and wanted them for a couple of years (they're Fall 07). If you know anywhere or anyoneeee, please contact me. I'm a 37-38!
Thanks.
