I’ve been away from Second Life for a while, which is why I managed to completely miss out on April. I hope you can forgive me though and to make amends, here is the May kanzashi (slightly late I know… ). In the month of May these beautiful wisteria decorations are popular for both junior and senior maiko. My version features delicate pink and purple blooms and tiny little silver butterflies – on springs, though you’ll have to just imagine them bouncing as you walk or dance.
In this picture, taken at Little Yoshiwara hanamachi, I’m wearing one of the new kimono I have been working on. You’ll notice, or at least I hope you will, that the collar has been remade and is now scripted to change colour as appropriate for junior maiko, senior maiko or geisha.
The back features a jade kanoko dome with a silver prim butterfly on it, and the whole thing costs $L150 including the ogi (that’s the fan shaped decoration I’m wearing at my right temple)
Incidentally, I am hoping to open a new satellite store at Little Yoshiwara soon and the build is well worth the visit.
