Yesterday I got myself a purple RO kimono. Now I have 2 ro :) I had to tell my friend Aira to not even think about getting it (because of her love for purple, I give her hard time about it all the time) cuz it's MINE!! It's a little bit on a short side for me, only 154cm in length, but sleeve to sleeve measurement is 137cm! That was the deciding factor for me.
Sadly I only have 1 ro obi right now and I don't think it will match this kimono very well. Ideally I would like a light green obi to go with it, or maybe even cream. I like the light obi paired up with darker kimono, or dark kimono paired up with lighter obi. :)
that is a beautiful kimono Lyuba-chan! I can't wait to see it in an ensemble!
ReplyDeleteSince I don't have any other ro obi than my dark pink one, I think I'll try to pair it up with that. I'll just have to balance it out with my whitish/green/beige obiage and obijime! :)
ReplyDeleteYou always get pretty colors that look good on you even if you don't think so.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous kimono! I love ro, and bamboo. But is it bamboo? I suddenly start to doubt it is... is it some grass type?
ReplyDeleteI love it and it doesn't seem that short for you, does it? Should be ok. Can't wait to see a full ensemble either ^_^
