Just had to get this kimono related bit out...As some might recall i visited my local Jap garden on a scouting mission a few months back (yes i said i would posts pics but i never found them...) well also some months back my friend who is in photography class at school expressed an intrest in going with me and takeing pictures when i whent again in spring.
The only diffrence in this would be i would be wearing kimono, the garden would be half dead with stagnant pools and only 1 big Koi, hopefully it would be quite alive and better taken care of because spring is 'THE SEASON' for the Austin botanical gardens... Also i will probibly be driveing... i should practice getting in and out of the car in kimono...
So as to what i will be wearing well... it will be my newest peice, my red lovely, a nice pair of boots i will have to take a pic of, An obi i just won off of ebay (its cream, yellow, peachy amd a little gold and all geometric but its very mellow and will still contrast nicely) Also i hope to have a green Obiage(i just bought a nice green scarf i can use) and i will probibly use my new Kumihimo disk to make an obijime, (colors are undesided).
the obi should be here in a number of days, i will try and take pictures of the outfit layed out(i can show you my boots, by the way i'm wearing boot because the garden has this nice loose graval on a good number of the paths and i don't want my geta to be ruined and i need to test how long i can wear my Zori without pain... not ideal of a photo shoot!)
In other kimono related news... the obi i mentioned will be my last Major purchase for the next month or two. I may buy some new Tabi, heck i might even get an obiage or obijime... but no obi or Kimono... I am going to begin to save so i can buy myself a nice Ko-furisode Hakama set of some sort, maybe a new juban that will be long enough in the sleves for the Ko-furisode and most definatly a cute hanhaba obi, all i have right now in that deparment is currently pink or purple and they are both plain... so yeah saveing up for a big purchase... though it probibly will not change my posting frequency... which is when ever i feel like it/ have something TO talk about... XD )
