The event is centered on ha-uta (\u7aef\u5504), a type of Japanese singing from the late 19th early 20th, where is added some naga-uta (\u9577\u5504), dancing and a lot of other attractions. We&#8217;ve been participating in the event every year. My husband plays many pieces and for me it was first just a lot of fun watching and listening (before I starting singing too) and a great chance for me to wear a kimono, because everyone is wearing one! Every year I challenge myself with a new pairing kimono-obi, and by wearing it myself. But always with a twist, because in the end I am not Japanese and everyone knows it!!!<\/p>\n<p>      <img src=\"http:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/54c4c3bde4b03dfa2a325d98\/550e8df8e4b047e3d942a260\/5692672e2399a318016c46d1\/1452435254317\/image.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The pairing of the obi, the kimono and all the accessories obimi age, obi jime, haori&#8230;) &nbsp;can be really awkward at first since the color scheme and mix can for a western eye be quite a shock or an aggression. But with a bit of imagination and browsing a lot of kimono magazines (my favorite is kimono \u59eb) it becomes easier every time and quite fun. This year I opted for Japanese traditional patterns both for my kimono and my obi and played with greens, dark blue and ivory (which changes radically from the usual dark grey or black I often use), accesorized with a big broche that Prunellia offered me. Japanese with always a Parisienne touch!! And outside I wear it with high heel boots and a vintage clutch bag of course.<\/p>\n<p>      <img src=\"http:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/54c4c3bde4b03dfa2a325d98\/550e8df8e4b047e3d942a260\/569265360e4c1197d24632d2\/1452434747560\/image.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year (but last year) there is a big event organized by my husband shamisen&#8217;s teacher where a lot of people from the traditional Japanese entertainment business and their apprentice and students join.
