Color Series: Rainbow

In this blog, I'll be doing "Color Series" posts; posts featuring my current favorite items of a certain color. One week might be red, the next week purple. For the first post, let's start with the best color... Rainbow! Okay, so it's not really a color, but it's fitting to start off with all the colors, right?

Well if you couldn't tell, I like rainbows. Big bright obnoxious colors, splattered all over, mmmhmmm gimmie more! I especially adore primary colors. And lately I feel like they're everywhere, tempting me, haunting me to buy them! Well, I caved and bought this beauty:

A rainbow furisode?! How could I stay away? I bought it from Ichiroya.com, a great vintage kimono website.

Shortly after buying it, I realized there's no way I could make a traditionally acceptable kimono coordinate out of this furisode. Not that it's not possible, but I know me, and I won't be able to stop myself from buying tons of rainbow accessories to go with it.

Like... rainbow false eyelashes, for example:

Bingo! Now the only thing left is what to wear on my feet. What's the most obnoxious shoe in existence? Nope, it's not crocs! It's...

Platform thongs?! Eeeeew! Maybe that's taking it too far. Perhaps I should stop, before this dream-weaving shopping cart goes haywire...


On second thought...
