I wore a kimono in December for my friend Yoshiko's wedding (during which Saori and I performed a duet of the Japanese song, aptly named "Love Love Love" ;) Goto-san, one of our riding club members, provided me with a GORGEOUS sakura kimono and arranged for the fitting/hair arrangement/photography at a posh salon in Utsunomiya. Here are additional photos of Lee (my friend from England, another riding club member) on January 9th, the Japanese "Coming of Age" day for those 20 years old. Daniela did the honors of photographer (josu des!) and Lee's kimono was provided by the excellent owners of our favorite Sushi shop (last photo). P.S. For those of you who care about horsey details, Lee is pictured with Kotarou, a TB who is related to my horse Kit!

It DID take them a long time to get you into that Kimono. A couple of months, it seems. ;) But...Wow! It was worth the wait. You make the average geisha look like Don Rickles.
