You see this crowd? We’ve all been standing in line for at least 4 hours–just to taste fresh sushi from the best restaurants around Tsukiji market. Originally, we wanted to watch the bidding inside the market but in order to do so, you need to go there extra early. We got to the market around 4:30am already. You’d think that’s early enough but apparently, it’s not. The tickets for the bidding were already sold out! So to turn our disappointment around, we decided to go to the best sushi place in Tsukiji–Sushi Dai.
We stood in line for HOURS! I didn’t think there would be such a long line so early in the morning!!! Imagine, it was even raining that day.
It killed me to see the satisfied customers inside the restaurant. It felt like all that yummy sushi were so near, yet so far. LOL!
So when we were finally seated inside, it felt like I won an award! Haha! FINALLY! LOOK AT THAT TUNA!
Before going inside the restaurant, a waitress asked us to choose between their regular and special set. Standing in line for more than 4 hours tend to make you choose the latter. I don’t regret it though. The sushi I had at Sushi Dai were so fresh!
Bonus points because the sushi chefs here are actually jolly and not at all, scary and too serious for their own good.
After what felt like the longest morning of my entire life, my mom, sister and I headed to the Imperial Palace for some sightseeing (and outfit shots of course).
I was feeling a little hippie this day so time to whip out the crochet top and fedora hat combo.
PB&J crochet top | Wacoal corset | Tout A Coup jeans
Cotton On hat
Vintage belt worn as necklace | Forever 21 necklace
Givenchy bag | SM Accessories black rectangle ring | The Ramp black/gold ring
Bershka boots

It has been a really, really, REAAAALLLY long time since ang last visit ng jeans mo na yan dito sa blog mo. :D
Hindi pa ganyan kulay ng buhok mo. Did you wear this na and just not posted it here or ngayon mo lang talaga isinuot ulit? Ooorrr, I am wrong?
Your shots are magical (whew). Love the crochet top.
Parang ngayon lang ulit :) Observant! :) Thanks Gladys!
I haven’t try sushi yet, I wonder, it’s that really good? :D
I love your outfit, sexy and hippie. I spotted neon orange socks. hahaha. Cool. ( I’m one of your very observant reader. :D )

I’ve been a fan of you and your amazing looks for a while now and I have no idea as to why I haven’t been reading your blog! That aside, your look is amazing! I love that pop of red and hints of gold accessories <3 So obsessed with your fedora hat!
P.S. I'm so jealous of you! I LOVE Japan! If memory serves, the people (that sells snacks) at Mt. Fuji and Tokyo Tower can speak many languages (I'm from Indonesia and I can say that they can speak Indonesian fluently!). So you should be fine if you have Takoyaki cravings :3

http://ollyvialaura.blogspot.com/2013/06/live-happy-beyond-ordinary.html
You should!
Never been to Japan and this is my longest dream…it was a “journey” looking at your photos ,though. A little “bitin” but just the same, a wonderful tour via your fashion blog. Thanks, Mango girl!
More photos coming!
Great post, Camille! You still look so pretty and fresh despite all the paguran and hassleness from the day! II wanna try those sushi too, looks so good :))
http://rafjuane.blogspot.com/
Thanks Raf! :)
whenever I look at your blog, I’m learning to envy so much heheh!
Haha! Don’t envy, be happy!! :)
Hi Camille,
Do u hire a tour guide for your trip? I dont like to follow tour group, but I dont speak japanese either. Perhaps a private tour guide is good, but not too sure how much it cost. Hope to get your advise. :)
Hi Sheryn! Nope we didn’t :) We just toured on our own :)
Yay!! the sushi looks really fresh and yummy!! And oh I was kinda shocked to the fact that the Japanese can wait a lot of hours waiting for that awesome resto to open,,nakakahiya for some Pinoys just like me na Filipino time haha..anyways..your oputfit is soo astig!..love the color of your jeans, it matches the vibe of your crochet top and your hat i totally love it!..and oh I almost forgot love your boots ♥
Thanks Dhes! :) I guess if it’s good, people are willing to wait :)
I’m amazed by how you still manage to dress up this good even though you’re travelling! :) and your blog inspires me, i hope you check out mine :) http://www.corinesibug.com/
Thank you Corine! :)
i’m glad you got to get your sushi, even if you had to wait! I love the outfit too, effortlessly chic <3

And tastes amazing too!
Gorgeous as always! I love that you can still pull off black even when it’s summer time! :)
Just one question po… I know this is your blog, I mean it’s called itscamilleco haha, pero have you ever thought of maybe featuring someone like your mom or sister as blog niyo? I’m just really curious how your family dresses too especially since you talk about being inspired by your mom even at an early age. Maybe take outfit shots together when you’re traveling? Just curious po :D
I wish they’d let me! Kung pwede lang :)
Sushi looks yummy ;p
I love your black top <3

Thanks Novarinna!

Thanks Marichelle!
Those are JEANS?! Your pants look like velvet! (Golly, I am such a nerd…) Anyway, This post reminds me of many vintage photos that I’ve seen — kudos to your photography style as well!
Your accessories were the touch of modern for this very vintage-looking ensemble. I like how you turned the gold belt into a necklace.
Thanks Angelic!
I super love your style Ms. Camille! :)
Thanks Don!
The little OCD in me was screaming “your bag’s zipper is half open! Beware of sticky bandits out there!” lol Anywayz, back to a safer note, I love the whole ensemble and I especially love the orange socks peeking at the very last photo ;)
Haha but I’m in Tokyoooooo! :) Thanks Kathleen!
woah sushi, I miss that.

Thanks Ohms!

Thanks Kc!
I always, always love your travel posts. Parang dinala mo kami lahat sa Japan but didn’t have to spend a single cent while at it. :)
Awwww thanks Aleigna!
I LOVE JAPAN I wanna go there!!! AAAAGHHH tulo-laway talaga ang sushi! *criiiiiiieeees*. Sea urchin ba yung yellow thing na yan? I tasted that once and parang seafood mangga yung flavor. hahaha… weird. They also have these candy making sets na pwede kang gumawa ng mga mini burgers (that tasted like the real thing), and other fun stuff. You get to play with your food talaga. Haaaay…
I have a black crochet top in my closet and because of this post, I now know how to style it! Thanks Cams!!! More Japanese food porn pleaseeeeee!!! ;) <3
Yes! :) I love uni!! Ayaw mo?
Thanks Reena!
WAAAAH!! SO jellyyy!! I might cry the moment I first eat sushi in Japan ;___; It’s like “Oh glorious moment that I have been waiting since I was a child!” lolz drama! But seriously, it’s like a DREAM! I could eat sushi everyday if my wallet permitted me to do so, hahaha! I wish we had Japan weather here. Mas masarap siguro mag outfit shots in Intramuros if it weren’t so hot and humid @_@
Me too! I love sushi. Actually, I love Japanese cuisine as a whole :) Oo nga, if only cooler dito
Sana when you are abroad you take pictures of cute, fasyown guys! Yung parang stockholm street style o kaya Jak and Jil lang ang peg! haha! Tapos karirin mo yung detail shots. Detail shots somewhere around their “masculinity” you know… haha! hay nako. If only I travel abroad as often as you, ganyan ang peg ko, Tommy Ton of Jak and Jil. Yun nga lang off limits ang “detail shots” sa mga girls. Boys only! At may naisip na akong site URL. BULGEHUNTER.COM chos! haha! Lakas maka-porn. bet ko na din yung FELIX-BAKAT-GOES-INTERNATIONAL.COM para may touch of pinoy gay culture parin. haha!
I kept trying! Trust me! Pero lagi akong delayed! Whenever I’m ready naman, walang dumadaan na fasyown! Not the detail shots though haha. Wholesome ngaaaaa! :)
OMG.. the shots look so nice.. japan is soo beautiful.. hope i can visit it too.. ^_^
Thanks Hazel!
it’s kinda refreshing to see you in jeans :)
Thanks Jam!
if i was in your shoes, that wouldn’t made my day, Camille. it will not. I’m guessing you have already practiced that patience for a very loooong time. waking up early in the morning hoping to get tix for the bidding but unfortunately it was sold out even before you arrived then you came with an idea to taste that fresh sushi unfortunately again you have to wait for 4 hours. what is wrong with the world. LOL kidding.
Haha I knooooow! But ypu know what they say, you need to work hard for the good things in life haha!
hahaha! may pinaghuhugutan si Camille!! LOL. But the makes sense :)))
i love your outfit!!! nice view you got there! :)
Thanks Vina!
I really like your jeans. Where is Tout A Coup located?
@biamagsino -twitter
I got it at I.T. in Hong Kong :)
If I’m not mistaken, those pants were the same pants you wore to the blog post ‘I’m Wearing David’ right? I’m so observant haha!
Yes!!! Wow!
Lovely Camille. I liked the way you used that vintage belt as a necklace. Which sushi did you love best? I haven’t tasted one yet. Now, I’m curious… :)
