Five People Have Tagged Me In This Today And It Literally Is Me

Lovely copper sculpture of floral kimono entitled "Wafuku" (Japanese traditional clothing) by Jaclyn Martin. The piece is installed for the Mansion at Strathmore exhibit Timeless Transformation, Kimono, Prints & Textiles. If I had the money and the place to put this, it would be mine! 😍

Merry Christmas to all our fur-friends and friends around the world! 🌲⛄️💕✨ #rottweiler #rott

Interesting kimono at the Baltimore Museum of Art’s exhibit “Kimono and Obi: Romantic Echos from Japan’s Golden Age.” It was commissioned by an American man for his wife for their vow renewal. The Japanese artisan couldn’t create a traditional wedding kimono as the woman was already married. And felt that a kurotomesode worn by married relatives of the bride would be wrong as well. So this was his artistic solution. #weddingkimono #wafuku #kimono #kimonolife #yuzen #kurotomesode

Kettle is on the stove. Just waiting for the water to boil. #tea #chawan #matcha #natsume #chashaku #teabowl

Off to the Baltimore Museum of Art’s curator’s tour of their exhibit “Kimono and Obi: Romantic Echos from Japan’s Golden Age.” It’s 105 F / 40.5 C. Glad I got my new hemp juban! #wafuku #kimono #obidome #summerkimono #kimonolife #baltimoremuseumofart #BMA

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. 🐰

Adorable!

Cheeky hand-embroidered haneri collars (seen on)

How adorable is this! 💕

Ok Gofukuya has once again stole my heart, I believe this cheeky seal is my favourite design in their catalogue (Look at that cute face <3 How one cannot love seals, they are basically sea puppies ^^)

My New Years matcha just arrived from Japan with a cute little graphic for the Year of the Dog. It is wakamatsu-no-mukashi which is one of my favorite teas from Ippodo Tea. They have stores in Kyoto, Tokyo, and New York. Can’t wait to have a bowl. 🐶🍵💕

Every time I see a photo of this kimono I want it more and more!! 👘💕😍
