After dinner I headed out to explore Ginza , Tokyo’s premier shopping district, with a group of friends. We visited a traditional paper shop and purchased some beautiful Japanese handmade stationary. Admiring all the glitz and glamour of the latest fashions of Tokyo, we made our way to visit a used kimono shop. We were like kids in a candy shop, as we shifted through piles of obis (the sash worn around a kimono, often the most expensive part) and checked out vintage kimonos including some exquisite wedding ones. We left each carrying our favorite obis and thinking about how we would use them in our interior design.
