Kimono Fashion : Uber-Trendy Chic
It's an Asian-inspired trend in designer fashions that's really hot! It's Kimono Fashion!

Kimono Jewelry : Artsy
Asian-inspired wearable art jewelry = Kimono Jewelry!
Have you seen all the kimono jewelry that has been the rage? Kimono jewelry can be seen as acrylic or laminated, natural fabric over metal, or as anodized aluminum.

Arguably Kyoto Antiques has to be my favorite eBay seller. And oddly, though they are in Japan, they are also the fastest shipper I've ever dealt with. I found them in May of 2008, and since that time (as of August 2008) have bought 6 items from them. Each item arrived at my home exactly 3 days after I paid for it! OMG! Stuff I buy from sellers in the US doesn't even ship that fast! Best of all kyoto.antique deals in antique fabrics from Japan, which I rabidly seek out for sewing my costumes...
