Kimonos - Blog Posts
Had a great time with the ladies at the July Kimono de Jack Washington, DC meet up. 👘 Thank heavens the extreme heat we've been having let up for a brief day! 🌞🔥😓
It was Washington, DC Sakura Matsuri weekend and brother was it hot! Had to ditch the lined kimono and break out an unlined, tsumugi kimono with large woven flowers. 🌸 Paired it with an olive-green han-eri and heko obi. The charm is a stuffed chirman bunny. 🐰
Yukiwa / snow crystal kimono, cute snowman obidome and my new Tatsumura Textile hanhaba obi! I was so excited to get a chance to wear the obi. Love the pine needle pattern and it tied like a dream. 🌲❄️👘⛄️😊 @tatsumura2
