Ulala in Kimono

Lots of posts today. While i`m at it i thought i would post these pictures of Ulala in her full kimono. She went to her cousin`s wedding a couple weeks ago and everyone in the close family was dressed traditionally (or at least very formally). She had to go to a special kimono shop just to have them help her get dressed! and then had to go to a hair salon and get her hair done in "kimono style," which near as i can tell just means fancy up with some flowers (don`t get me wrong - it looked great). All this cost a small fortune, not including the gift money for the bride and groom! Yikes! But she tells me the wedding was beautiful and well worth it all. I didn`t go because i was at owrk (and i don`t really know her cousin at all).
