This. Is. BAZAAAR!!!

Every 25-th day of the month there is a bazaar near the Kitanotenmangu Shrine, and my ever generous boss gave me 2 hours off so I could check it out. I love flea-markets, bazaars, little stalls with strange stuff and the people who sell it. You can find a lot of interesting stuff there - from old furniture, textiles and fruit from the farm to designer clothes. But the thing that interested me the most was the fact that they sell a lot of old kimonos there.
so, I found myself digging in a mountain of old kimonos, and I found the one in the picture - my first kimono. It's plain, but that's how I like 'em ;). Now I have to buy the accesories which, I think, will cost me much more than the kimono itself (only 1000 yen!).
