Trousers/pants for girls with POCKETS

Hi! My daughter is starting elementary school very soon and we’re looking for pants with pockets for her to put her tissues and hand towel in. We’re already familiar with the cute detachable pockets that can be clipped on the outside, but it would be great if we could get some pants that already have pockets. I’m not opposed to her using her brother’s hand-me-downs, but they don’t tend to end their time with him in the best condition. I’m also not opposed to looking in the aisles for what is deemed boyswear, but she does like cute, pretty designs. Has anyone had any luck with this? She still takes 110 or 120 cm, depending on the shop and style of clothes. Thanks!

    I saw a bunch of cargo pocket style pants at Nishimatsuya not too long ago, and they had them in a range of colors. I was shopping for my son so I didn't really pay attention to the more traditionally girly colors, but I'm pretty sure there were pinks and purples!

    I would buy boyswear that fits for your pocket needs and add a girly trim, ribbons, bows or cute iron on patches to girly it up.

    @JTsu That's actually a great idea...there are so many cute patches, too, that it makes a lot of sense to jazz something up that already fits the structural requirements!

    An idea - I got two skirt suit combinations from Orihica, a business wear outfit. Both the skirt and the blazer had real pockets! The blazer has a cute peplum and the skirt is a-line, both easy to move in.

Summer reading

I know there have been questions in the past about what we're watching, but I'm wondering what you're reading at the moment! I'm looking to get a few new books for summer and I'd love to hear if you have any recent recommendations. If you have any good spots here to get EN language books in person, too, I'd appreciate if you would share those as well!

Condiments in your fridge?

Just for fun! I was thinking the other day how different the contents of my fridge are to the fridge I grew up with! Just one example, I always have soy sauce in my fridge and usually at least one other unopened bottle in the cupboard. There was never soy sauce in my fridge growing up. And the friends I grew up with don't have soy sauce in their fridges even now. But my Uni friends all have soy sauce in their fridges, because they all lived in Japan for at least a year. I was just wondering what things do you have in your fridge here that you probably wouldn't have in your fridge in your home country had you never lived here.

Moving house process

I've been in my apartment for nearly 7 years. I've got my eye on an apartment one station closer to work. But I forgot what it was like to move in here! It was all a bit traumatic... Have you got some packing tips, suggestions for how to move your household goods, and what to save for last?
