Dark Purple Kimono Remake Bag
I bought this years ago when my sister and I were in Singapore for a shopping trip one summer. We were wandering around the mall that's connected to the hotel we always stay in, and stumbled across this Japanese place called "Kokon Tozai" that was selling bags, shoes, purses, and all sorts of accessories that were made of old kimono. Normally, I'd be horrified at the thought of using such beautiful kimono in that way, but they actually had a brochure that said that they were careful to make these out of unuseable kimono only ^^;;
My sister and I bought a bunch of stuff, and proceeded to visit all three outlets in Singapore. I can't remember the addresses and the names of the malls the first two were in (but they are places I frequent whenever I'm in Singapore) but the last one is in Changi airport, just at where the check-in counters are.
This is a realy cute design, and is very convenient for just throwing things in when you want to pop out to the store, or go out for a quick lunch. I love the purple colour XD
