When you wear a yukata in summer, don’t forget to get the matching accessories !
Shoes have to be wood or straw sandals, and the bag should definitely be a string bag.
There’s also silk ropes and belts.
By the way, purple is a color of choice for these accessories as it represents wealth & power in Japanese culture.
This is an accessory called Obi-himo, to wear on your waist, above Yukata’s belt (Obi)
Always good to have some more flowers!
A typical selection of bags, keeping the tradition style while adding a small dose of practical.
I really like how those bag close with just that string to pull on top!
Closing with the bottom part - the sandals (Zori)
Those are definitely a must - note that you can also find socks to adapt to these sandals, but it’s summer so let’s go fresh!
Everyone, enjoy the summer, and do not hesitate to ask for more Yukata tips!
