Hi there dear Kimono enthusiasts!
As the title of my new blog post implies, I was working on a small project. At first I had the idea to create some 'winter/early spring' coords but in the end I took out only one Kimono and created 3 styles by changing the Obi (and a few accessories).
Of course I wanted to follow the seasonality, therefore I chose the almost salmon pink Tsukesage I got for Christmas 2 years ago, which has primarily ume (plum) as motif. Since the plum blossoms are still blooming, I thought this Kimono would be perfect for this post ♡ Further, there aren't any proper 'Kimono coords' pics with this Kimono yet.
Let´s start with style No.1 (as always, click on the pics to enlarge them)

Chose also a pink bag and silver-pink Zori |
Now let´s continue with style No.2

Here I paired the Tsukesage with my sasa (bamboo) Fukuro Obi |

The silver of the Obijime also can be found in the Obi |
Last but not least - style No.3

So, which one do you like the most? Would be nice to hear what you think about the different styles.
Thank you (*^_^*)
