I wore two of my nicest kimono to "celebrate" my last big bazaar.

Today is the traditional day for changing your summer wardrobe over to your fall and winter one.
It's been a tradition in Japan since Edo times.

I am currently swamped with other things right now, otherwise I would take half a day to poke around in my kimono, putting away the summer ones (which sadly, I hardly wore this year) and bringing out the fall and winter ones.

Maybe in a few weeks when everything has simmered down.
