HAPPY NEW YEAR

High heels

I am not the type of girl which wear high heels because however I think the shoes often look great, they aren't really comfortable and I am not just to walk on this kind of shoes.
When I saw these, I fell in love and thought that I probably could walk on them but it is not that easy but still they look beautiful.

So here they are, my new oiran shoes:

 

Have a great weekend.

 

Iro Muji

It's been a while since I've done kitsuke, I guess the last time was in august when I went with some KDJ members to the floriade in Venlo. So last night it was time or rather I took the time to practice.
Last april I bought a greenisch/blueisch gray Iro Muji because the colour looked beautiful and I didn't have a silk Iro Muji. So this one was selected for my doll "Annie" with an  nagoya obi with beautifull doves. I really love obi with animals prints. The colour of the obi age/obi jime are orange which is a nice combination.
Here the results of this combination;

Visiting Rome

A few weeks ago my BF had to go to Rome for work, so I thought that it would be fun to come along because I never been to Rome. It's a beautiful city with a great amount of history which you can find every wear. So if you have the chance to visit this beautiful city, I can recommend it but we went in July so it was very c rowdy and hot, if you are planning to go do it in august or September because it will be less hotter and less tourist.
As a kimono lover I always look for kimono store when I visit a city so also in Rome and yes I found a store. Unfortunately it was very expensive but what a beauties they had.The store is called Antichi kimono.
I also visited another Japanese store but can't remember the name or the street.
Here are some pictures;
