It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s in Californian scene, isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t it?<\/p>\n
It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s very interested in me, who was born and raised in Japan.<\/p>\n
I think that people think very freely in California.<\/p>\n

I remember when I was in High school, a girl pointed other girl and Laughed at her, because she was wearing cotton shirt in winter. At that time I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t understand what is wrong about it.<\/p>\n
Later I found there is a Japanese tradition, which is called \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Koromogae\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n
It started as court function in Heian period (AC700- 1185).<\/p>\n
They changed clothing April 1st<\/sup> through September 30 for summer clothing and October 1st<\/sup> through March 31 for winter clothing.<\/p>\n Edo period (AC 1603 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c 1868) it is established a system, changing cloths for four times a year for Samurai\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s rank. Then Citizen was followed.<\/p>\n Meiji period, 1873 they established a law which Western style uniform for a government official, military and a policeman, from Komono style uniform. And changing uniform on June 1st<\/sup> through Sept. 30 for summer one and Oct.1st<\/sup> through May 31 for winter one. Student uniform is same way even now.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Koromogae of Kimono is four times a year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n My father graduated the university. He was educated by modern\/ Western culture. So my family\/mother didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do Koromogae. So I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know about it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I like the way, which I wear whatever I want.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thank you for stopping by my blog.<\/p>\n Please leave your comment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This Scene was right before Xmas.
