Japanese festival and Yukata outfit

I was wearing Yukata with...
THOMAS WYLDE  skull scarf
DreAng moon shaped pin
Topshop earring
Albertario clatch

Yukata is a light cotton Kimono for summer wear.
It is used for general relaxation and as sleeping wear.
Yukata is also commonly worn at some summer events such as local festivals and fireworks displays.

Last Friday, I went to the Japanese festival 'Mitama Matsuri' at Yasukuni Shrine with my hubby.
There were sooo many people and booth that was sold foods, drinks and Japanese snack and so on.
I'm wearing the tradirional pattern printed Yukata, but I added special arrangement to my waist.
Thomas wylde scarf and DreAng pin are my favorite Yukata spices.

I spent sooo exciting and happy night!!!!
