Bubbles

Yes a new kimono and because of the bubbles pattern perfect for Christmas... I think. It’s a grey rinzu kimono with stripes in the silk.






The pattern is lilac pink-ish with gold icy stars and... bubbles! Or drops or see-trough balls, it’s so pretty! There is a signature too, I really love her. Even though I think it's hard to dress in shiny rinzu and it makes me look bigger then I am. Still I like the kimono a lot and she seems very chique to me. I paired her with a lovely soft lilac/pink crème fukuro obi and accessories in almost the same lilac tone as in the ice flower pattern, sometimes I feel lucky.

Also, I installed my "studio-in-a-box" that’s how I could take these pictures... I dressed after dinner so it was dark already, but I had lights, and I managed to get them working too, I feel so proud ^_^

Decoration

Yes, I do use my kimono as decoration too. I try to change them as often as possible and try to keep the kimono "in season" I really like that. The change is also to prevent them from being too long "out" and I keep my courtains shut, they are light and white so my room stays nice and bright enough...
