MY OTHER GALLERY: :iconqiu-ling:

Some of the pieces in my other gallery are now over five years old, or nearing five years old. So take a few minutes to say goodbye to these babies because they will be removed from my gallery at the end of the month. Then they can rest happily and peacefully in their retirement.

Up for retirement on January 1st:

Christina... WE WERE RIGHT!

The weird kimono with the blue/pink/yellow bunches on it that I got on ebay in October arrived by surface today. IT IS A HIKIZURI! It has a double lining inside (looks pretty new too) and the lining is AMAZINGLY patterned! It's white with dance fans and flowers :D Both bottoms hems of the kimono and lining are padded!

The other one I bought turned out to be dark brown instead of black... and the seller didnt put "used" or "vintage" on the item description for shipping so I got dinged $39.50 COD. There's also some stains on the lining where the collar is (not disclosed in the auction btw) but if you use the easy snap you can't see them while wearing.
