A lot of folks seem to think it&#8217;s the twelve days leading up to Christmas, but that&#8217;s because over time it&#8217;s become sort of merged with Advent. In reality, Christmastide runs from December twenty-fifth to Epiphany on January sixth. My plan is to do one themed outfit per day, mostly revolving around the traditional colours of red, green, and gold, but with some variations. Kits-mas is a combination of the words kitsuke and Christmas, because I&#8217;m a sucker for a terrible portmanteau.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-6548 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-medium'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-11.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-11-201x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-11-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-11-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-11-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-11.jpg 1071w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-12.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-12-201x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-12-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-12-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-12-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-12.jpg 1071w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-13.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-13-201x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-13-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-13-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-13-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/xmas2017-13.jpg 1071w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>For the first day I went very simple and traditional; my favourite vintage houmongi in a rich red, paired with a green and gold hakata obi and metallic accessories.
