I came across this omusubi zipper pouch from Sample by Matsuda<\/a> on Instagram a while back and fell completely in love. Every item in the shop, referred to and catalogued as Articles<\/em>, are incredibly clever and well-designed, but this one captured my heart. I knew I wanted to build an outfit around it, and red, white, and black was a no-brainer. I went for something very casual, wool kimono and hanhaba obi, and styled the pouch a bit like an inro would have been worn. Wouldn’t this be cute for someone working at a restaurant that served onigiri? I chose deep teal-ish accessories (the “obiage”\u00a0 is actually a fabric drape left over from my wedding but it works!) to call back to the impossibly blackish deep green of an onigiri’s nori wrapper, and I like the unexpected colour play against the red quite a bit.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
