Beautiful kimono obi

With its exquisite patterns and incredibly feminine form, the kimono is always eye-catching, and, considering that it’s a relatively uncommon sight that’s saved for special occasions, such as the recent Coming of Age Day celebrations, seeing one is always a bit special.

But, as striking as the two ladies below looked as they walked towards me, once they had passed, their hugely tricky to tie obi were possibly even more appealing.

      Yeah, me too. And not being overly common makes them even more special.
