Hello! First off, let me say I cannot be blamed for the terrible title of this entry; it’s actually the title of a children’s book. It’s always made me laugh, and since today’s coordination features my favourite olive-green kimono and Christmas is coming up soon it seemed appropriate.
For those of you who aren’t aware, I work in a toy store so this time of year is always a bit exhausting for me, to say the least. I knew I wanted to do something simple and cute that wouldn’t take much fussing, and remembered that the salmon-coloured accents on this kimono are a near-perfect match for a black winter motif tsuke-obi I own. More salmon pink accessories including ume on the haneri pulled it all together.
I do have a few other things in the work for this month, but entries will likely be a bit sparse for a bit. I do post regular smaller updates and curiosities on my Facebook and Instagram, so be sure to follow those if you don’t already!
