I love your kimono/robe/gown. Very ukiyo-e...

Maia said...

Thanks! I'm glad other people approve of my outfit-thingy. I call it a kaftan (though since I've never owned a kaftan before, I'm not sure why I think so). My husband calls it a mumu, and has been making fun of me since I first wore it! (I found it at my new favorite resale store for only $16! And it's beautifully-made. An expensive piece originally. An in mint condition.) And you know what? I don't even care who makes fun of my "mumu". It's my favorite work-at-home-in-hot-weather outfit now. One piece only, slip it over the head and go, all cotton and gauze, acceptable at the coffeeshop when I have to make a run, and...come on, whatever you call it, it's SO much more stylish than sweats and PJs, which is what I usually wear in the studio!

you're beautiful in that kaftan, with all the flowers around... lovely Q, as usual!

Charlie said...

Gorgeous! You two are beautiful together. Have an awesome day!

Rachel said...

Everything is just beyond beautiful.

(I would also wear that "mumu" with pride and love!)

Suggestion? Arrange for a candlelit evening after QQ's bedtime featuring something lucious and romantic for dessert, aperitifs, and then nothing but you, the kaftan, some sort of sultry perfume and...well, you know the rest.

He'll have such fond memories of your garment that he'll cherish it until it's threadbare and faded.

Like I say, I love it. Very "floating world"; you look like a dream of a dreaming geisha, bloomingly like the blooms around you.

Oh this is beautiful!!!! I love what you've done.
I've noticed this 餃子 lantern before in your pictures, it kind of feels funny to see it here to me but it matches perfectly in this set :)
