#look up 20 year old ceremony kimono T_T theyre so beautiful #i love kimono. this particular style you only really get the one chance to wear. #the photos online dont really do it justice #my friend wore a bright teal one with an orange obi. but you could barely tell because of how patterned it is #jaw dropping #i live nearby a great second hand clothes place that ive gotten a couple of little things from. im considering making a bigger purchase #before going home. either a fox pelt (with a face and everything) or an old kimono #just to have #a lot of japanese people thing its nice when foreigners wear kimono in japan but i couldnt do it when i get home i dont think #im not saying theres a rule book about what to do im saying i would feel uncomfortable doing it #i would be buying it just to have. i already own a kimono its proper silk and embroidered. #maybe i get an obi #who knows. i love the store so i want to give them more of my money before i go #anyway i was jealous bc i havent celebrated my birthday since i was 8 bc my friend didnt invite me to theirs and i got confused so i stoppe
