A Little Different: Want to Try Out Hair Accessories?*

For hairstyles with white kimonos or colorful uchikake, it's common to add flower decorations like pom pom mums, orchids, baby's breath, or dried flowers in muted colors.

But when it comes to actually selecting hair accessories, don't you sometimes want to try pairing something with a slightly different taste or feel...?♡

(The other day, when I was dressed in a kimono in Kyoto, I was asked which hair accessory I preferred. While the traditional flowers are certainly beautiful, I found myself drawn to the more unusual pearl or jewel accessories that complement the kimono!)

It somehow feels more unique, fresh with an unfamiliar vibe, not overdone, and quite stylish. I ended up picking something other than the conventional options!♡
