It's getting a bit tiring to see that in 99% of anime characters almost always only dress in either:

a) extravagant and/or fantastical battle outfits
b) generic looking high school uniforms
c) generic looking sports outfits
d) generic looking military outfits
f) idol outfits
e) fanservice tailored clothing

I want to see characters that dress in a way you can tell they have a life outside of school/work/saving the world bla bla bla etc.

Any anime you've seen where characters dress in normal clothing most of the time?

Shirobako is good at these. You can see Aoi change her clothes from time to time and sometimes wear the same clothes but different pants and vice versa.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

I like when anime has the characters dressed in anything besides work/military/school outfits lol. Those over the top school uniform designs some have can seriously kill an anime for me, they're so distracting and dumb...

Japan has an AWESOME fashion world, wish more anime/manga(manga tend to more) would incorporate this stuff. They do, it's just more common to have school outfits or simple outfits that are easy to draw lol.

I have watched it, not a big fan of the story or art as much as other people but the clothing designs were pretty nice as you said.

Yep he drew a one-shot promoting some of Gucci's clothes and he even got the cover of a Women's fashion magazine called Spur! http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2011-08-22/gucci-store-to-host-exhibit-of-jojo-manga-araki

You don't need casual clothing when you can go goth-loli like Uryuu Minene or Tokisaki.

Agree with this.

OT: anything casual like cool shirts, dresses, hoodies, jackets etc..
But I don't mind various school outfits too, not that important to me.

Only the people at school call her Osaka, though--her grandma would call her "Ayumu-chan." :V

This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi!

I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom:

"Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news.
Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people.
Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation.
There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime.
You should be watching Carole & Tuesday."

You know, I do love seeing a girl in jean shorts. But for some reason, anime girls don't pull it off nearly as well as 3D girls do. Anime girls seem to always look better wearing skirts.

The same seems to be true of real life Japanese girls. They rock skirts like nobody else but for some reason they don't seem to ever pull off the jean shorts look the way girls everywhere else do.

You need to be checking out more slice of life anime if you want to see more of casual clothing.

Although I consider Uta∽Kata as a new addition to my personal favorite anime, I'm not sure if it's really the anime with my favorite casual outfits.
The 5 girls that the series tends to follow (I say "tends to follow" cuz most of the focus is on two of these girls, but still the other three appear enough in the show) have multiple outfits, as it's an anime set in the summertime, but there are some casual clothing here and there. I dunno if these are my favorite outfits, but there are some nice ones here.


Ahiru from Princess Tutu has a pretty nice casual outfit that she occasionally wears outside her school!
