Can't exactly relate to the Spring Kimono in January so did something a little more familiar to me.
pristine leather
mink oil rubbed in
new winter boots
ribbons and lace
fresh starched cotton
new Sunday dress
new scarf and gloves
donned to greet
winter’s first snow
It's always exciting to have new clothing, especially to greet the snow!

This year mine is just a very soft scarf, which I'm wearing in the house because of the cold ... and it's just soft.
DeleteOh yes.. those winter clothes.. love the feeling of new boots too.
ReplyDeleteI oil and polish all the shoe to look like new and to treat any new ones, each new year's day,
DeleteAs I was a child we had what we called "sunday-clothing", clothing especially for the sunday and church. Those clothes changed several times a year as we (my brother and I) got new "sunday clothes" ...
ReplyDeleteHaving lots of siblings, most of my new clothes were hand me downs, but It made the new ones stand out so much more in my memory.
