Pictures of the kimono and related items I bought from a tiny second-hand shop I found in Arashiyama, Kyoto.
I bought:
Black Haori (3000)
Pale Green Haori (1000)
White/Black Kimono (5000)
Green/Blue Kimono (2000)
Blue Rainbow Obi Set (2500)
White Tabi Socks (1000)
Red Cord Zori Shoes (1500)
There are expected minor imperfections, mostly on the insides along common sweat stain areas or a few possible sunburn spots. I believe they're all mainly silk though, and they're very well-made.
The obi is a premade-type, so I don't have to learn how to tie it! Thank god, otherwise I'd never wear these.

Sitting in a chair waiting for my wife to try on clothes I studied these patterns for a while and it occurred to me to take a picture.
Designed by Ilmari Tapiovaara (finnish), 1949. I bought 4 of them, they need some paint and varnish.

Brandy shredded up pieces of the original 20 thrift store album covers and created this new psychedelic collage cover.
Red linen 50s (am I right on this?) swimming costume with elasticized ruching in the back, built-in bra cups in the front. Perfect for a picnic in a city with warmer summers. Instead I wore it with platform shoes around Vegas last summer. Alameda Flea Market a year and a half ago, $15.
Pictued in Windsor is GNV 978N a former UC Bedford YRQ, one of 35 that only lasted 7 years with its first owner, alonr with 25 longer YRTs. By July 85 it had passed to Moores for town work, note the exact fare display common at this time
The Triotar 135 mm f4, Carl Zeiss Jena, M42 mount.
The Triotar is composed of only three lenses: one positive, one negative lenses followed by a diaphragm, then by a positive lens. (I guess the four reflected light source images that can be seen in this picuture come from the four lens-air interfaces of the two front lenses. Is this guess correct?)
Former Southern Vectis TDL 420S is here with Caroline Seagull in Gt Yarmouth, taken in Aug 89, its seen with a Midland Fox picking up on the lay by after a day trip. TDL 420S was one of a small batch of Bedfords with Dominant coachwork purchased by NBC in the late 70's.
One of those funny old baskets made with paper pictures, covered with plastic and woven together at the sides with plastic cord. What are they called? What era are they from? Anyone?
Not the most flattering shot, but I was too hungry to care. Today was my day off, so I spent it doing the grocery shopping our Thanksgiving feast. Hooray cranberries! Consequently I wanted to wear something comfy and warm. While I was tempted to schlub around in workout pants and one of hubby's sweatshirts, I decided to steal his new scarf instead. I love the way the shades of green look together.
