Hi, I've been out for quite a while there, so don't laugh when I say that the last animes I enjoyed are
Karin
Ouran
Fruits basket
Monster
Utawaremono
Saiunkoku monogatari
Lamune
Sakura
Blood+
KGNE
and so..
But now I would like to see anime with a slice of life (and maybe a little fantasy

). I'm sorry I can't describe my type (don't know it!) so please help

Thanks!

Why don't you give Dog Days and Shuffle a chance when you have time.

Usagi Drop- excellent slice of life
Also if you enjoyed Utawaremono then i suggest Tears of Tiara. Created by the same people, creating a army, etc.

Slice of life + fantasy? I definitely recommend Someday's Dreamers: Summer Skies/Mahō Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto: Natsu no Sora and Natsume Yuujinchou(it's more to supernatural though).

I suggest Tears of Tiara as well, one of my most favorites of all time.

I think you might like Seirei no Moribito. It has a strong heroine like Shurrei or Nina Fortner, a similar faux-imperial setting like Saiunkoku, and a captivating story like both Saiunkoku and Monster. Twelve Kingdoms is another strong candidate for similar reasons, though you have to be patient with it for half-a-dozen episodes. The same woman who wrote the Moribito novels also penned Kemono no Sou-ja Erin which you might also like.

One reason I'm recommending both Moribito and Erin is that they have a mix of plot-driven episodes and slice-of-life episodes. All three of these shows have a good dose of fantasy as well.

I'll second the original Someday's Dreamers; I didn't like Natsu no Sora quite as much. Usagi Drop is an excellent choice as well. If you're interested in the "cute-girls-go-to-high-school-and-do-cute-things" type of slice-of-life I'll recommend Hidamari Sketch. Not much fantasy there, or perhaps a fantasy of a different kind. An earlier show in the same genre, Azumanga Daioh, has some weird elements that might be called fantastical.

I'm also recommending Dennou Coil just on principle.

Well, if you don't mind a currently running anime, go for Natsuiro Kiseki. It starts off with some underwhelming drama, but gradually gets better, and by the time of this post, it has become a very sweet, slow story about friendship. It also has a supernatural spin to it, which is integrated quite well with the mundane trials the characters go through.

Best slice of life with fantasy are Aria series. First season is Aria the Animation.
Other slice of life are:
K-ON
Sora No Woto
Usagi Drop
5 Centimeters per Second

With some fantasy you could try:
Spice and Wolf
Kanon 2006
Clannad
Air
Angel Beats
Tales of the Abyss
