Turning Japanese, I Think I'm Turning Japanese
I had meant to post a fun picture of the vintage kimono I bought a few weekends ago (only $6!) from my favorite secret vintage kimono store here in Singapore, but that was before last Thursday's kimono-finding frenzy. And so, here are pictures of them all. I need to get them cleaned, but then I'm definitely going to start wearing the long ones around town coat-style (above). I really think they're going to spruce up my basic jeans-and-tee ensembles, don't you?
I also found this short jacket-style one, which I love:
Some of them, I'm hoping to eventually convert into cute wrap dresses (but first, I have to advance to the actual sewing part of sewing class):
The bold, 70s-style prints are my favorites:
This classic one is actually a small child's-sized kimono, which I'm going to hang on the wall:

THE LAST KIMONO IS GORGEOUSSSS where is this wonderful shop DO LET US KNOW :D!!!
i could probably fit into the gorgeous last kimono perfectly! let me know if you're thinking of selling. and yes, reveal, reveal!
Oh these are truly yummy! You inspire me to dig mine out and get something done to them. Now that it has cooled down a little here in Tokyo a kimono wrap dress would do just the trick.
Your finds are gorgeous (and cheap!!)
Tokyo love
