Hey, since this is all about japanese fashion, what do YOU think about white girls in kimonos? I would feel wierd wearing one, because of how very traditionally japanese it is...but they're SO GORGEOUS! I was thinking maybe kimono-inspired clothing would be more appropriate...so as not to trod on other people's traditions...I don't know if I'm being overly cautious.

You sew?! I LOVE TO SEW! I mostly hand sew because I have an irrational fear of sewing machines...lol jk. I just don't like the noise. Making a kimono must have taken a lot of skill! and fabric. I'm actually ALMOST finished with a skirt right now, it's the first mini circle skirt I've ever made. It was really simple lol.

Oh my will you show us how the end results is?


Riding the waves
Looking up at the sun
Feeling the heat beating down on my back
It makes me feel alive
Even for just that short while
I can see the light

I don't think my pics are all that good, but it's the ones that show what I normally look like most often (the black hair is when I was in costume as a charactor in oe of my fiance's comic books).
