Saturday Dinner at Park Restaurant & Bar. The muscles were with fresh sage and it was a great flavor. Duck spring rolls were okay, and we went there for the famous patty melt but ended up ordering a ram meat pie. The pie was not very special but the corn bread on the side was amazing! It tasted like more pudding than a bread and I thought it could be a dessert, mmmm.
Casual dinner out coordinate, wool vintage plaid skirt, school girl cardigan and lily of the valley headdress from Yokihi :) It was a casual restaurant night out, so wore casually and comfy. I really love 祝Noriko’s creation, so lovely and just wear it then 40% more dressed up!! If you are interested, please check our Facebook page, link in the profile ;)
Catch of the day, Timberland chukka boots for $5 at Global Thrift Store! Slightly worn out but still in a good condition, and already broke in and fit my feet so well. Good for a bike ride, good for a long walk, good for a little bit snowy day, it was a good buy☆ 今日の獲れトレピチピチ、ティンバーランドチャッカブーツ$5! 少し着用感はある物の、まだまだ良いコンディション、そしてすでに履き慣らしてあるので足にとっても良く馴染みます。 自転車乗る時にも、ちょっと長く歩く時にも、そして少々の雪なら大丈夫、いい買い物したわん☆ ヒールを履くのはやっぱり、ドアトゥドアのお出かけに限りたい。足痛いとテンション下がる、乙女度低い私。ヒールに強い人と弱い人の違いは何なのかしら。
Went to an awesome vintage clothing shop,Cur.io Vintage. Their selection is clean, in a great condition, and the price is just right for both ladies and gents. Today I bought 2 wool skirts (I bought the blouse in Oklahoma City, there was another awesome vintage clothing store, but they are not there anymore!) and 1 red leather belt for the coming long cold winter. One with a shawl and it would be good with kimono as well.
Today’s outfit, vintage blue dress from a vintage clothing store in OKC, sadly they are closed permanently. I love blue :) My head seems like it is growing taller and taller. My coworker told me one day when I had my hair down, “Oh, you look different!!” big hair is officially one of my important feature haha.
Today’s outfit, summer iromuji azuki kimono. Actually it was the first time to wear this one, and it was shorter than I thought. It is no problem but I wore it a little bit shorter than usually I do by mistake, I prefer the bottom line about to touch on the floor. I think I forgot to how to tie the obi, always a little bit too loose and showing the datejime!! I have to be careful with this issue. 今日の装い、夏着物小豆色無地。 実はこの着物を着るの初めてだったのですが、広げてみると思ったより短かった。それは特に問題ではないけど、いつもより短めに着付けてしまったのが。。。ちょっと残念。裾は床スレスレぐらいが好きです。帯は久しぶりに一本締め笑 兵児帯でひらひら結び。 しかし、ちょっとの間に帯の締め方を忘れたっぽい。最近よく着るけど、一日の最後ぐらいになると、帯が緩んでしゃーないっす。早く感覚を取り戻さねば。。。もっとギュッとね!! #Nozomy #望 #望Nozomy #kimono #着物 #和服 #夏着物 #小豆色
Today’s outfit, chusen yukata. I prefer yukata than kimono to wear, because yukata looks wrinkly and stretched out after a while. I also think I look better in kimono. 本日の装い、注染浴衣。 個人的に浴衣よりも着物の方が夏でも好きです。座ったり立ったりすると、どうしても浴衣は伸びてシワシワになってしまうので。そして着物の方が自分の見た目に合っているような気がします。絞りの良いのを買えば、また違うのかしら。 #望 #Nozomy #望Nozomy #yukata #浴衣 #注染 #和装 #todaysoutfit #ootd #今日の装い #今日のお召し物
Today’s outfit, summer bamboo kimono which I bought in Okinawa. Only one mistake was that I didn’t do obijime or obiage to hold the bow up on my back. I took a bus and people bumped to my obi when they get on/off the bus, and it was limply hanging on my back after a while… Good lesson. 今日の装い、夏きもの竹、沖縄で買ったものです。 帯締めか帯揚げをして後ろの結びを固定するようにすればよかったというのが唯一の後悔。バスに乗ったのですが、結構込んでいて、人が乗り降りするときに後ろに当たって、しばらくしたらダラーンとしてしまいました。沖縄では車移動が多かったので、教訓です。 #望 #Nozomy #望Nozomy #Yokihi #吉日 #Yokihi吉日Redletterday #todaysoutfit #ootd #kimono #summer #bamboo #vintage #retro #girl #Japanese #今日の装い #今日のお召し物 #着物 #着物 #和装 #和服 #夏着物 #夏 #サマー #ヴィンテージ #レトロ #日本人
Catch of the day, “Battat Our Generation Blonde Doll.”
Well, It was kind of creepy to find out a doll head was on the sidewalk while I was running in the early morning. I just passed it one time, but then changed my mind because I thought I could use it as a display. So I ran about 1km with this doll head to my house, you know what was the creepiest morning scenery; a sweaty girl running with a doll head…
I combed and set her hair. She look much better, doesn’t she?
Her name is Jacquelyn, it’s her pleasure to meet you all.
I felt slightly conservative on that Saturday in a dress from a great antique shop, 3 R’s Schoolhouse Collectibles, in a small town of Oklahoma, Blair. They have so many good and unique real antiques there, I miss it so much and would love to go back again someday.
I need more belts fit around my waist, the black one is a little bit loose.
