End of 2012

This was a great kimono full year. I have 16 kimono (or was it 17 kimono?), and i gained many accessories. well This post is really late, truthfully i should have posted a week ago... i'm not sure if I will ever find my festival photos of any other pics that i have no idea where they went but i have pics now i think one last post for the year is ideal.

First i would like to list my kimono accomplishments of the year.
- i have worn kimono for 12 hours
- i have driven for 4, 30 min  bouts in one weekend.
- I have made many contacts on the internet.
-i have had several real life "normal" friends and the such tell me: "I love all of your kimono pics!"
- i have bought several Obiage
-I made new kimono contacts in real life.
-I was recognised by a japanese man as 'a girl who wore kimono to the japanese festival'.

lols i'm sure there are more acomplishments i have made but in truth i find that i still love kimono which is what matters to me, though my 'kimono fever' isnt quite as all consuming as before i stilll have wants... so now i shall list a few kimono goals for 2013

1. i want 1 black kimono
2. i want many new cute obi
3. 1 want a semi formal summer kimono
4. i want 1 Ro/Sha kimono


and i will leave it at that for now! XD now on to my kimono escapades!
On christmas day i hopped into kimono twice for fun.




It was a fun day! The orange kimono is a christmas gift, the green one was not. The yellow hakata obi is summer weight which is awesome! ( i mean come on i live in texas the place where summer and winter temperatures intermingle!)

not long after Christmas Day came ikkicon. i wore my adorable wool cherry komon with twin braids!


Well thats it for 2012! Happy New Year everyone!
