Teal blue ro

This little teal blue ro silk kimono is small and so sweet!
She's super soft, has woven silver stripes and tiny added gold and warm orange embroidery in some of the flower hearts, and silver around the edges of some petal.

The obi has the same orange embroidered flowers and some soft blue and grey morning glories, I think they are wonderful.
Even though both are on the small side and the obi apart from being too short is also kind of dirty, but they are so pretty.

Just when I thought I had to add warm orange summer accessories to my shopping list, I remembered I had some! In real life they have the exact same shade of orange as the flowers and flower hearts, how lucky I am, the camera turned them a bit too red though...











As this kimono and obi scream vintage (they are ^_^) I took out my cute ro nagajuban with embroidered eri.
The tabi are Mamechiyo Modern early spring collection 2011 and have tiny gold dots, perfect!

Oh I love everything about this coordination. The kimono, tabi and the han eri. Especialy the han eri, it makes this strong blue color look so soft again.
