Ghost Hakama






So, last year, my fiancee and I found these great kimono's. Ghost Hakama for Halloween. We bought scary skin and went to scary places and took pictures. Here are a few pictures from us last year for you to enjoy.














Now, I took some recent pics with the Ghost Hakama and my goulish skin. This is the cemetery at Hosoi Ichiba. A nice place to take pics. My hair is by RQ. Nothing really traditional today. Just Halloween fun!!















Enjoy the pics!

Tea Hunt Kimonos




Don't you love Hunts? The Tea Hunt has been talked about by various bloggers, so I won't go into details, but this hunt does have two lovely kimonos in it. Everything is 1L, so it's not free, but pretty close. The hunt has very nice things besides the kimonos, but I want to focus on those here.











The first kimono is very lovely and has such a warm autumn touch to it. The shawl or muffler; is also a prize from the hunt as well as the parasol. I have the picture with the muffler and one without on the second pic. There is also the skin, hair, shape, and shoes that I am wearing. The parasol comes with animations and a zhao! An entire avatar can be found here! The next kimono is sweet, I love the tabi socks, red and white! kawaii! Little things make us happy. So, join the hunt, it's all in one place and the gifts are really not that hard to find.

Good Luck!

Autumn kimono




The chill in the air and the cold winds bring along a wondrous change. Bright colors of the sunset befall the green leaves of summer and a burst of color covers the land. Fall, such a nice season. Fall colors of kimonos are the same as the colors of Autumn. Reds, oranges, browns, and fall patterns are all very pretty in the colder months. Momiji or Turning leaves motifs and patterns are best. Kiku or Chrysanthemums and Tachibana are motifs for kanzashi's and kimono's. ^.^






This kimono is very beautiful. It's from Milky called Mai Sansafa. The fall colors really jump out of this kimono. It is very graceful by the seaside at dusk. What do you think??

Goodbye, yukatas.


So this is the last Yukata I will wear this season. It's probably already out of season now, but I wanted to show you this one last yukata. Isn't it lovely. I'm very fond of purple and this one was just to great to pass up.

This is a yukata from Umi Usagi. This store has lots of great clothes, if you love "doll" clothes, you'll find so much here! I love the kimono section myself. Lots of nice kimonos to choose from and very detailed. Just look at this yukata. Purple and pink roses, lots of lace, a pretty black and white obi with pink pearls, and it comes with geta! Cool, huh? I love the lace going down the split. So, detailed and pretty.





Hope you like it!
