Robed Bohemian 001

Depending upon whatever your definition of "kimono" means I guess you COULD say: Yeah, that's a Kimono.

From my limited understanding of whatever "kimono" was supposed to mean,is that it means "clothes" or "clothing" in Japanese... but, despite my having watched hundreds of hours of Japanese films, movies, TV shows, I don't actually speak the language...

So..... I just call these my robes, because i have 2 of them. they are both vintage 2000/2001 robes made by sexy designer "Frederick's of Hollywood" which usually makes lingerie & sleepwear, among other things. And, I believe this was among the VERY first thing I'd EVER purchased with a bank card online, when online shopping was often considered risky, since the 1990s.

I used a secured service called "Yahoo Wallet" which encrypted your online translations. believe it or not, my first robe I purchased was the magenta/hot-pink robe, even tho' I hate pink... but, I felt the colors went well together, on the graphic printing. I also wrote my VERY first online customer review with them, and the vender was very professional, friendly, and polite, and even wrote me a personal thank you note/e-mail. So, i went back and purchased the 2nd, robe, which is the cyan/electric blue one.

Both robes were"Made In USA". Can u believe that? I still wear them all the time, and the quality is STILL excellent! Never fell apart, never wore out!

They don't make 'em like they used to....

Anyways, I'd been wanting to do something with my robes... but, I just can;t get down to play artsy-fartsy photography stuff with my friends in PA, yet... So many set-backs in my plans. Much to my frustration!

So, I desided to try a Bohemian flavor here... I'm on a bohemian theme kick still...
