I've been again MIA nowadays online ei!!!
'nyways...
What's the newest thing about me?! HmMm...
Since last Saturday (8/6/11) I've woke up as early as I could to prepare myself for this year's yukata matsuri which was held in our working place. Wondrin' what Yukata Matsuri means?! Howell...
* Yukata (浴衣 << written in Japanese Kanji) was derived from the word "YU" which means, bath(ing) and "KATABIRA" meaning, under clothing.
* A yukata is a Japanese garment, a casual summer kimono usually made of cotton.
* A cotton sash is usually worn with the yukata for casual daily or nightly wear. In attending festivals and public occasions, the yukata is worn with a wider belt, which can be simply wrapped around the waist and tucked in at the end. For a more formal appearance, the yukata is worn with an obi belt, along with a matching geta (wooden sandals) and purse to complete the attire.
* People wearing yukata are a common sight in Japan at fireworks displays, bon-odori festivals, and other summer events.
* yukata literally means bath(ing) clothes.
* Generally speaking, the differences between a kimono robe and a yukata robe are in fabric – kimono are generally made from silk while yukata robes are usually made from cotton or synthetic fiber - and also, yukata’s are unlined unlike kimono. Although different, these two cultural symbols of Japanese clothing both employ obi – a sash or belt- and geta - elevated thronged sandals.
Enough for a looooong definition of a Yukata Matsuri! lol
Here are some of the photos during the event at my work with my friends and co-workers.
