I just got a kimono set from www.yamatoku.jp/classic/ and I had to purchase haori tie cords elsewhere. I now have the tie cords, but I have no idea how I'm supposed to attach them to the haori. Can you help?

I wish it would come back into fashion, they're so easy to tie! Yes, I noticed that too :) As I mention in my post, it seems to be an older style.

The other day, I was looking through my tourist library book about kimono, and I noticed that the young lady demonstrating how to wear kimono had an older style datejime with the cords on the end. I distinctly remember reading that you had never seen the likes of it before...so I just wanted to let you know. I hope you are doing well! Naomi~ Hi Anna!

Keep in mind that hakata datejime are made of thick silk and last forever, so their price is really quite reasonable. The same goes for obi ita - they're expensive, but when taken well care of, they'll last you for years - decades even, if you don't wear kimono that often.

Do you know anywhere cheap to buy them short of going to japan (can't afford it =ToT=)? I have a few essentials but mostly I just improvise, which is alright to a certain extent but some things are more nessescary than others.
