This is a komon kimono (casual wear) I made for March. The color combination I've used is called "momo" (peach) and it is good for spring (https://wafuku.wordpress.com/2011/05/15/japanese-colour-names-seasonal-combinations/) when the peach trees are in blossom. The pattern on the kimono is called ishidatami (checkerboard). The nagoya obi is wrapped in otaiko musubi (or if you think that too formal for casual wear you may think it is ginza musubi). Nagoya obi is the less formal version of full-width fukuro obi and often has a motif only on the taiko-part and the front. Here I've drawn a blossoming branch on the back. It might look more like ume (plum) but will pass also for momo (peach) when the amount of pixels is limited.

I totally fell in love with this one for some reason ^^;;; I want to wear it again and again and again. Could be the bright colors that make it seem more childlike or youthful.

I've tried to keep the kanzashi in her hair to my bare minimum (^^;;) since it is a casual kimono. Also here the flowers represent momo (peach). The hair is done in the traditional shimada hairstyle.

The collar is folded with the left side overlapping the right (as it should) and the back of the kimono is pulled down to reveal the nape of the neck. I've also made a faint line under the obi to indicate an ohashori fold. And finally I've made her wear zori (sandals) and tabi (socks) that would be proper with a silk kimono.

Kimonos are a hobby of mine and I hope I've gotten most of the details right! ^___^
