Kitsuke Dump Post!

I haven't been posting regularly at all, but I have still be dressing up. I figured I would just dump all the pics of recent outfits into one post and then we could all move on. I'll try and keep them in chronological order.

Hal-Con Day 2/Halloween Outfit

I knew I wanted to dress up in kimono for halloween, and Hal-con taking place over halloween weekend seemed to be a perfect excuse. I decided to do a witch theme, so I got a witch's hat and dug out my pentacle earrings. I absolutely love this tsumugi komon, I just wish it was a tad bigger.

I didn't realize until after the day was over and I went to post the pics that my hubby's shadow is covering most of me, gah!

Also this obi was giving me quite a bit of trouble. That back design just didn't want to line up nicely.

Hal-Con Day 3

I did a panel on kimono on day 3 so I decided to go with my best fitting kimono to make a good impression. I went with my blue geometric tsuke obi because by day 3 I was feeling work out and head-achy and didn't want anything too challenging. I didn't really get any full body pics of this one unfortunately. 

Christmas Craft Meet

Another one I didn't get any full pics of. I had wanted to wear my hitoe moon, bunny, and clover tsukesage at least once before it got way to cold for hitoe. This weekend was surprisingly warm for November so I took it. This was one of those days that I slept to late and had to rush to get dressed so I pulled out the blue tsuke obi again. It is fast becoming one of my most used items. It matches many things and I love the convenience of tsuke obi. Also broke out my lace haori here as well. 

Casual Lunch Meet

This outfit was not at all what I was originally intended to wear. I was disappointed to find on the day of the meet, that I had put on a few too many pounds in the last few month and could no longer comfortably fit into my intended kimono (at least not without flashing other people). I ended up just tossing on the biggest kimono I own in frustration (which is my moon bunny tsukesage) and once again the tsuke obi because at this point I was so far behind schedule. I was thanking my lucky stars it was almost 15 degrees Celsius that day so I was just warm enough. I did manage to get a few full body pics this time around though so yay! Also first kimono pics with my new do!

And that's it for 2015! I successfully completed my 2015 New Years Resolution to wear kimono at least once a month every month. I intend to keep it up in 2016!

Thank you for looking!
